Chengdu.
I don't know what's wrong with this year, it's already September and the temperature is still very high, staying above 36 degrees Celsius.
But Chu's mother was still full of energy and was always out and about.
"Chu Fang's mom, wanna play mahjong?"
"Okay... never mind, I'll quit." Chu's mother was initially happy, but then she remembered the misdiagnosis that had happened recently and refused.
"It's so hot outside, come in and have a seat," a friend greeted.
"I'm not sitting here anymore, I'm going to the city." Chu's mother waved her hand.
What are you going to the city for?
"My darling is getting married, and I have so many things to prepare."
September arrived, and National Day was approaching, which was also the day Chu Fang and Zhong Tingyue got married. During this time, Chu's mother purchased all sorts of wedding items.
"Your family has everything you need, why would you need to prepare anything?"
"It's my child's first time getting married, so we parents should help. They'll have more experience next time they get married."
Chu's mother waved her hand, "Never mind, I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm going to the city."
Chu's mother hailed a taxi and headed towards the city.
The friend was left standing there, pondering what Chu's mother had said: "You have no experience with your first marriage, so Chu Fang is planning to get married a second time?"
"No wonder they're rich. They prepare two plans for everything they do. With that mindset, they can't fail at anything."
... ...
Soon, Chu's mother arrived in the city. As soon as she got off the bus, someone handed her a flyer: "Take a look! Mother-in-law training course! Are you still annoyed by your daughter-in-law fighting with you over your son? Are you still angry about your daughter-in-law's struggles with you? Are you still helpless because of your daughter-in-law's various shortcomings?"
"If so, that's perfect. We are your most trusted partners, and we can teach you how to achieve a complete victory in your battle with your wife."
"Huh?" Chu's mother tilted her head, then smiled, "This is good, this is good."
The person handing out flyers asked, "Auntie, do you have this problem?"
"Yes!" Chu's mother nodded emphatically.
Chu's mother has too many such confusions, which even affect her happy life.
Chu's mother and Zhong Tingyue had a tumultuous relationship, arguing and making up over many things, only to start arguing again soon afterward.
Most importantly, Chu's mother was at a disadvantage in the struggle.
Chu's mother was well protected by her family from birth and was simple-minded. She was no match for a cunning old fox like Zhong Tingyue and was often tricked.
Just a few days ago, it was Chu Fang's birthday. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law discussed it and jointly paid for a birthday gift for Chu Fang, which symbolized the harmony between them.
In the end, Chu's mother bought the gift, which was worth a certain amount, and Zhong Tingyue said she would pay the majority of the cost, transferring 5200 yuan to Chu's mother.
At the time, Chu's mother was all smiles, thinking that Zhong Tingyue was showing weakness and that she could gain the upper hand by only having to pay 5,000 yuan.
Later, after being reminded by Chu's father, she realized that she had been tricked by Zhong Tingyue.
Enraged, she bombarded Zhong Tingyue's chat window with messages for the next few days.
"That woman is wicked." Chu's mother kept repeating this phrase in the past few days. "All I did was borrow money from her and not pay it back, and I even said some stupid things to her. If she just apologized to me, I would have paid her back immediately, even more money. How could she use such despicable means to get her money back?"
"I swear to fight Zhong Tingyue to the very end!"
The person handing out flyers was overjoyed: "Auntie, you've come to the right place! We're here specifically to solve your problems."
The person handing out flyers then led Chu's mother into the mall. Soon after, they arrived at a spacious classroom filled with middle-aged women in their forties like Chu's mother. The classroom was noisy and chattering.
