"Let's eat quickly, it's all Mom's good food, it won't taste good if it gets cold."
So everyone focused on eating.
“Okay, Crescent Moon, then please tell your friend. Your parents will give you the money for the groceries later,” Bai Xiuhui said.
Su Yueya: "..."
She dared not say she wouldn't accept money, after all, they were just "friends," and it was impossible for her to eat their food and then ask them to pay her; her in-laws and husband simply wouldn't believe that.
“Okay, no problem,” Su Yueya replied.
After finishing her meal, Su Yueya wanted to wash the dishes and took the opportunity to change the water in the water tank, but then her dear husband suddenly appeared and blocked her way!
"Crescent Moon, go chat with Mom and Dad, I'll take the bowl." Lu Zhengjun rolled up his sleeves, ready to get to work.
Su Yueya: "..."
All she wanted was to change the water tank, why was it so difficult?
Bai Xiuhui was already urging Su Yueya to go and sit down.
"Crescent Moon, let Zhengjun do it! He doesn't do much at home, so he needs a chance to show off. You come and keep Mom and Dad company," Bai Xiuhui called out.
Su Yueya could only go over and sit down.
What should we do?
After washing the dishes, we can chat for a bit more. I guess she and her husband will have to go home soon. I'm afraid they won't be able to find another reason to go into the kitchen. Will they still not change the water tank?
That's impossible!
While chatting with her in-laws, Su Yueya pondered to herself.
Oh, and fruit!
Everyone was eager to do chores today, but when it's time for fruit after dinner, she'll be the first to jump out and absolutely refuse to let her in-laws and husband take it from her.
She had to be assertive, all for the sake of changing the water tank!
Half an hour later, Su Yueya felt the time was right, and suddenly jumped up, startling Lu Anguo and Bai Xiuhui.
"Crescent Moon, what are you doing?"
"Mom and Dad, shall we have some fruit?" Su Yueya suggested, adding that the fruit she brought today was quite good. "Mom cooked the meal, and Zhengjun washed the dishes, so surely I can wash the fruit too?"
Bai Xiuhui originally wanted to say that she had left a job for her father-in-law, but before she could speak, Su Yueya rushed over.
"Let me do it! Let me do it!"
They didn't even give her a chance to refuse.
Once in the kitchen, Su Yueya picked out fruit while furtively keeping an eye on the commotion outside.
They seemed to be laughing, saying that Su Yueya was both cute and funny just now.
"They probably won't come..."
Su Yueya seized the opportunity, rushed to the water vat, and with a thought, first drained the ordinary tap water from the vat. In the blink of an eye, the vat was filled with spiritual spring water.
Mission accomplished!
Before Su Yueya could even breathe a sigh of relief, she heard Lu Zhengjun's voice.
"Crescent Moon, let me help you."
As they were talking, Lu Zhengjun had already walked into the kitchen.
Su Yueya: "..."
That was so close!
Thank goodness she was quick enough!
"Crescent Moon, weren't you picking fruit? What are you doing by the water vat?" Lu Zhengjun asked, puzzled.
"Oh, I was thinking of washing the fruit with some water. I was so stupid. I could have just turned on the tap, haha..." Su Yueya laughed and quickly brushed it off.
Fortunately, Lu Zhengjun didn't press the matter, thinking that since it wasn't her own kitchen, Su Yueya might not be as adept at doing things.
"What kind of fruit should we have?" Lu Zhengjun turned around and started fiddling with the fruit.
"Let Mom and Dad try some sweet sorghum stalks, and wash some apples and grapes too," Su Yueya said.
We didn't prepare too much fruit, since the fruit after the meal was just a token amount, and we were already full and couldn't eat too much fruit.
They brought out fresh, juicy fruit.
Su Yueya then actively encouraged her parents-in-law to try it.
"Dad, try this sorghum stalk. Mom, try this grape."
“Mom and Dad, fruits are rich in various vitamins. Eating some regularly is good for your health, especially for you, Mom, whose health isn’t good,” Su Yueya said.
"Okay, okay," Bai Xiuhui agreed, her eyes filled with affection as she looked at Su Yueya. "Mom will listen to you. Our Yueya will be a doctor in the future, so listening to the doctor is always the right thing to do!"
Su Yueya was a little embarrassed and said modestly, "Mom, I haven't graduated yet."
"So what? My daughter-in-law is so outstanding, it's only a matter of time before she becomes a doctor at the hospital!" Bai Xiuhui had a lot of confidence in Su Yueya.
"Mom, I will definitely work hard and not let you down."
Bai Xiuhui's trust strengthened Su Yueya's resolve to complete her studies.
But Bai Xiuhui is not a big fan of fruit. She rarely eats fruit on her own initiative. When she saw the washed grapes that her daughter-in-law brought to her, she was a little embarrassed and quickly looked to her son for help.
There's nothing I can do, I just don't like it!
It's all Lu Zhengjun's fault, that unfilial son. She had to pretend to be unwell and couldn't even give a reason for refusing to eat fruit.
Lu Zhengjun noticed his mother's gaze, but unfortunately, there was nothing he could do to help.
Not only do they not help, they also "aid and abet the evildoers"!
"Mom, let me peel one for you to try." This traitor peeled a plump grape and handed it over.
Bai Xiuhui: "..."
Unfilial son!
Not wanting to disappoint Su Yueya, Bai Xiuhui decided to try a couple of pieces as a token of her interest, then excused herself by saying she was full and would eat more later.
After everyone leaves, let Lu Anguo finish eating all the fruit!
She planned it very well.
"Okay, Mom will try it." Bai Xiuhui suppressed her disgust, picked up a grape, and put it in her mouth.
Hmm? It seems pretty good!
The grapes we usually eat, no matter how sweet they are, still have a slightly sour taste.
Some people like this sweet and sour taste, but Bai Xiuhui doesn't. She wants a purely sweet taste. Unfortunately, most fruits are not completely sweet; they all have a bit of sourness.
Therefore, Bai Xiuhui doesn't like to eat fruit, so she doesn't eat much of it.
I never expected to eat such sweet grapes today.
It's extremely sweet.
It doesn't taste sour at all.
Even Bai Xiuhui, with her discerning palate, was instantly won over by these grapes.
"Delicious!" Bai Xiuhui exclaimed.
There was no need for Lu Zhengjun to peel it anymore; she started eating it on her own.
The father and son were shocked.
Bai Xiuhui is really going all out to please her daughter-in-law.
Lu Anguo and Lu Zhengjun, one loves his wife dearly, and the other loves his mother dearly.
Acting is not easy!
Little did they know, Bai Xiuhui wasn't acting at all; she was serious.
Peel one after another, then another.
Soon, more than half of the large bowl of grapes was devoured, and it was still going!
Lu Anguo simply couldn't stand it anymore.
"Wife, have you eaten a little too much?" He thought to himself that he couldn't just stand by and watch her die, so he should at least offer Bai Xiuhui a way out.
Then she went along with it and said she wouldn't eat anymore.
Bai Xiuhui ignored her completely and continued peeling the grapes vigorously.
"Crescent Moon, these grapes are really good!"
Lu Anguo: "..."
