Chapter 97 The Influence of Word of Mouth
After the couple finished talking, they planned to take a bus back home.
But on the way, I heard Shuyao, who was held in Zhao Yanyu's arms, happily say: "Mom, Sister Xuemei knows my new name, and she is so envious. But she still deliberately calls me Xuehua. I told her several times but she didn't listen. Fortunately, Dahu and the others started calling me by my new name."
After hearing this, Lin Yuzhu patted her head and said with a smile, "We will come less often in the future. If she does this again next time, you can go play with Dahu and the others instead of your sister Xuemei."
"Okay, Sister Xuemei doesn't like to play with me anyway." Shuyao nodded and agreed.
After returning home, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. This trip to Zhao's house felt more tiring than going to work.
Fortunately, it only happens a few times a year and they can handle it.
In the evening, Lin Yuzhu was sorting out the gifts to be given to those visiting for the New Year the next day.
Seeing that she had already decided whose house to go to, Zhao Yanshu hesitated for a moment and asked: "Do you want to go to the Lin family?"
Lin Yuzhu shook her head directly, "No, just go to my second sister's house. I didn't go back in the past few years."
She was right. Ever since she gave birth to Shuyao, Mother Lin not only swallowed the eggs given to her by her elder sister, but also only brought two rotten cabbages to see her. She never went back again and treated her mother's home as if it didn't exist.
But Zhao Yanshu thought about it and said: "You didn't have a formal job before, so you didn't have to worry about anything else, but this year you have become a regular employee, so you also need to pay attention to your reputation.
Even if they do bad things, they are still your biological parents. If things get too awkward, it will always have an impact on you. Why don’t you go back and take a look at them?”
Lin Yuzhu frowned when she heard this. She knew that Zhao Yanshu was right, but she was still reluctant.
To be honest, although she didn't like the Zhao family, she could remain indifferent when she returned. However, she hated the Lin family's parents. If possible, Lin Yuzhu really didn't want to see them in her life.
But like Zhao Yanshu said, they are her biological parents after all, and other people don’t know what’s going on. If she is too heartless, it will definitely affect her reputation and maybe even her future promotion opportunities. This is the job she finally got a permanent job!
So Lin Yuzhu was silent for a moment, and finally compromised, "Then let's go back, but we won't go back alone. Let's go to my second sister's house tomorrow and go back with her."
Although the second sister also looked down on the Lin family, she would still go back there every year, so she said that the second sister was not as cruel as her.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
The next day, the two of them set off early in the morning with their children, carrying a lot of bags.
To be honest, my son is still young and it is inconvenient for him to go out, but there is no other way. It is the New Year now and every household is busy, so it is not easy to ask someone to help take care of him.
Fortunately, this winter was not very cold, and there was no snow. The two of them wrapped the child tightly, so he did not get cold.
Not all the things they brought this time were for the Lin family. They had to visit quite a few families to wish them a happy new year today. Since they lived far away, it would be inconvenient for them to come back, so they simply took everything with them.
The two went to their second sister's house first. After all, it was not convenient to bring so many things to someone else's house.
When I arrived, everyone else in my second sister's family was at home. Actually, there was no one else there, just my second sister and her husband, their three children, and my mother-in-law.
When they arrived, my second sister and her family were very welcoming.
Even her second sister's mother-in-law, Aunt Zhong, who had always disliked her second sister's family, rarely smiled at her.
Lin Yuzhu was a little flattered, but after thinking about it, she understood that it was probably because her second sister was pregnant.
