Maybe it was because Zhang Minzhi had said so much to me before, so now standing here I didn’t feel anything, and it went in one ear and out the other, just turning a deaf ear.
The people around him didn't seem to care either, as if they were used to it.
Everyone stood silently, listening, but their eyes were full of impatience.
"Oh, my mouth is dry from talking about this."
"Me too. Because of this unsatisfactory marriage, I feel like my life has become difficult."
"It's more than that. It makes me annoyed and angry just by looking at it."
The ladies kept complaining one after another, without any hesitation, and did not consider Song Shuran, their daughter-in-law, and the other girls at all.
However, what the ladies said seemed a bit boring, so they found an excuse and sent the people away.
"Oh my god, it's finally over. Even if it's only once in two months, I really can't help it."
"Don't blame me, I didn't come last time, but you had to drag me over this time. My husband persuaded me for a long time and promised to buy me that limited edition bag, so I came reluctantly."
"There's nothing we can do. Who made us come from a poor background and lack confidence?"
When this was mentioned, everyone fell silent for a moment.
Indeed, speaking objectively, although the girls present were not bad, they were far inferior to the daughter of aristocratic family, Xiang Jin!
It’s not just about background, what’s more important is ability, connections and status!
"Have you all been here many times?"
As a new face, Song Shuran asked tentatively, which soon aroused everyone's curiosity.
"Are you the one from the Lu family?"
Song Shuran nodded quickly and said with a smile, "Yes, it's me."
"Then you're in trouble. Zhang Minzhi is the pickiest person. You seem to have a soft personality, so your life is going to be tough in the future."
When Song Shuran heard this, she couldn't help but sigh.
What's more, it's not just about the future? My life right now is not good. I can't take care of my work all day long. I am forced to do thankless tasks every day!
But there is no way to refuse!
"Well, I'm moving out next month. I won't attend parties like this anymore. It looks like a party on the surface, but it's just to criticize us."
"Who says it isn't? Demeaning us and elevating yourself."
Everyone was chatting together, with each other talking.
Song Shuran couldn't help but think of Lu Jinghuai who was on a business trip. She was a little distracted and couldn't react for a long time.
It was the girl next to her who gently patted Song Shuran on the shoulder and woke her up.
"What are you thinking about? Eat something first to fill your stomach. This is your first time here, so you don't know the procedures. We'll definitely be asked to trim the flowers in the garden later, so eat something first to save your energy."
"Why should we go?"
As soon as Song Shuran asked the question, the girl next to her answered enthusiastically, "Isn't it to show our respect for our mother-in-law, the so-called filial piety! She just wants to suppress us and show that she is superior."
The girl's words were a little unclear, but people could still hear them clearly.
Song Shuran suddenly felt that her future was dark, without a ray of light.
Even though Lu Jinghuai was with her, she could still feel how difficult her future life would be!
"So that's how it is..."
Song Shuran drank a cup of hot tea in her hand and nodded slowly.
What matters is not the pruning of branches, but the attitude!
He could obviously ask the servants to do it, after all, they are getting paid, so why must he let his wife go?
It's just to be picky and difficult, what else?
"I heard that you two have only been together for a short time and have just moved into the old house. You can't understand our pain yet, but I still advise you to find a way to leave as soon as possible!"
"That's right. Although living in an old house will make others respect you a little, there's actually no need to covet this status."
"Yes, life is completely different from what you think."
Everyone seemed to see Song Shuran's immaturity and tried to persuade her with the attitude of someone who had experienced it.
Everyone talked about their sad past. Although they were just a few ordinary suggestions, they were all based on their own personal experiences!
These are all lessons learned through blood and tears!
"Okay, I know. I'll definitely find a way to leave the old house as soon as I get back. However, the time is too short, and I really can't think of any good solution."
Whenever I think of this problem, my head becomes bigger and I feel very confused.
