When the marriage was first discussed, Xie's mother really felt that Lin Xiangyi was too opinionated and too spoiled, and was not suitable for Xie Qingxiao. She was afraid that after they got married, neither of them would admit defeat and their lives would be a mess.
Looking back now, she really made a mistake!
If Lin Xiangyi wasn't a person with great ideas, could she have made her useless little son so motivated?
Now her good-for-nothing little son has become very hardworking. He has been doing business for so many days. He goes out to get goods early in the morning, comes back to work until the afternoon, and then goes out to sell the goods again. He is the most tired one, but he has never complained.
Especially since the young couple made money from their business, not only did they have meat to eat every day at home, they also hired people to work, and she and the old man also enjoyed the benefits.
This is something I never dared to imagine before!
Mother Xie knew that this was all thanks to Lin Xiangyi.
As for being pampered, Lin Xiangyi is indeed pampered.
She never lifts heavy objects. She asks Xie Qingxiao to carry her bath water every day. When she feels lazy, she asks Xie Qingxiao to wash her clothes. She sleeps until eight o'clock every day...
It can be said that she doesn't worry about anything other than business matters. Even cooking depends on her mood.
Mother Xie had never seen a woman who did whatever she wanted.
It’s just that although Lin Xiangyi is said to be delicate, she is actually not delicate at all.
The filth in the internal organs stinks so badly! She can clean it even with a wrinkled nose, and wears a mask when she can't stand it.
Women of Xie's mother's generation were all willing to devote their lives selflessly to their families, husbands and children. She had never seen someone like Lin Xiangyi who did whatever she wanted but also knew how to control herself.
The more she got to know her, the more she appreciated her.
Yes, appreciation, an appreciation that is even greater than liking.
When a mother-in-law likes her daughter-in-law, she treats her daughter-in-law as a junior and puts herself in the position of an elder, and she still needs to educate her.
But when the mother-in-law appreciates her daughter-in-law, she ignores her junior status and puts her on an equal footing.
For example, when encountering problems, she would not educate the junior Lin Xiangyi, but would rather discuss it with her.
…
Lin Xiangyi made a pot of bone soup, chicken stewed with mushrooms and vegetables, and spicy and sour shredded potatoes.
When the weather is hot and I have no appetite, I like to eat something sour and spicy.
As soon as the food was served, Sun Lanjun, who was sitting in the main hall with Xie's father, frowned and asked, "Why did you put chili in it? Xiaoni and I don't like spicy food."
"Then you can eat something else," Lin Xiangyi said. The other three dishes did not contain chili peppers.
What if she wants to eat shredded potatoes?
Sun Lanjun held back her words and didn't say anything. She felt that Lin Xiangyi was so selfish, because she wanted to eat, she didn't care about other people's lives at all.
Lin Xiangyi didn't care about her. She, Xie Qingxiao, and Xie's father and mother could all eat spicy food. As for Sun Lanjun, if she couldn't eat it, she could just eat something else. Not every dish was spicy.
She doesn't come to help, but she still wants her to cater to her taste in everything? It's good enough to have something to eat. She really thinks she is the boss.
Father Xie looked at Mother Xie silently, and Mother Xie shook her head at him.
The old couple have tolerated Sun Lanjun for a long time, so it would be good to let Xiangyi treat her.
Guessing that Xie Qingxiao would be back soon, Xie's father and mother and Lin Xiangyi were not in a hurry to eat. It was always like this before. Xie's father and mother would prepare dinner at home and wait for Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi to come back before eating together.
Seeing this, Sun Lanjun naturally did not pick up her chopsticks.
But the child can’t wait, and she doesn’t have to wait.
"Mom, I want to eat chicken, I want to eat chicken," Xiao Ni climbed onto the chair, half of her body lay on the dining table, and was about to reach out to grab the chicken.
"Xiao Ni, eat with a spoon, don't eat with your hands," Xie's mother said hurriedly, and gave Xiao Ni a spoon and a bowl. Unexpectedly, after Xiao Ni took the spoon, she started stirring the dish.
Mother Xie said again: "Xiao Ni, you can't stir the food like that. Our elders haven't eaten yet. It's very impolite for you to mess around. You can eat the food at your side, okay? Forget it, what do you want to eat? Grandma will pick it up and put it in your bowl. How about a piece of chicken thigh for you? This meat is the most tender and delicious."
"No, I want to get it myself!" Xiao Ni waved away Xie's mother's hand, looked at her with dissatisfaction, and then continued to stir the dish with a spoon.
If you don’t like this piece, throw it back and stir it. If you like this piece, put it in the bowl and stir it again. If you don’t like this piece, throw it away... The juice splashes onto the table, making a mess.
Lin Xiangyi's temples throbbed as she watched. She realized that she didn't like all children. For example, she had the urge to pick up a child like this and spank him.
She glanced at Sun Lanjun and found that she hadn't even taught Xiao Ni a lesson yet, so she looked at her helplessly, as if to say that she couldn't do anything about Xiao Ni.
Absolutely.
"That's enough!" Lin Xiangyi shouted, snatched Xiaoni's spoon, picked up a few pieces of meat for her and put them in her bowl, and said bluntly: "Eat these! Tell me when you're done, and I'll give you more. Don't mess with the food on the plate anymore!"
"..." Xiao Ni looked at Lin Xiangyi blankly, her mouth pursed, and she burst into tears with a loud cry that shook the earth.
"Xiao Ni!" Sun Lanjun finally stopped pretending to be deaf and dumb, and quickly hugged her daughter to comfort her, "Be good, don't cry. Sister-in-law, you are too fierce, aren't you?"
The second half of the sentence was addressed to Lin Xiangyi, and Sun Lanjun was clearly suppressing her anger.
"It's not that I'm fierce, it's that I can't control her if I'm not fierce," Lin Xiangyi said, "Just now, mother tried to reason with her, but she didn't listen."
"She's just a child! Can't you be more patient?"
"Sister-in-law, you are a teacher. Don't you understand that children should be taught this principle from an early age?" Lin Xiangyi asked back, "Of course, Xiaoni is your daughter. How you educate her has nothing to do with me. But if she offends me in front of me, and you don't teach her, then I can only do it myself."
"You!" Sun Lanjun's chest heaved with anger.
"Alright, alright, old family, just say less. Xiaoni was indeed wrong in this matter," Xie's father eased the atmosphere.
Xie's mother sighed beside her, blaming her for not being able to stand up and letting Xiangyi become the bad guy.
At this time, the door opened, and Xie Qingxiao and Xie Guoqiang came back. Before entering the door, they asked: "Why is there a child crying?"
"Are you back?" Lin Xiangyi went to greet Xie Qingxiao as soon as she saw him. Xie's father and mother also followed him out. They wanted to ask Xie Guoqiang how he felt about going out to do business with them today.
Sun Lanjun was coaxing Xiao Ni in the main room, her eyes turning red.
She said that her parents didn't welcome her back at all, so why did she come back? The three days passed quickly, and she wanted to go back to the city as soon as possible!
