Zhang Cuihua shook her head, looked away, and walked towards her son's house.
Having received Su Yueya's promise not to cause trouble, she was in a great mood, and even her steps became lighter.
Upon arrival, Zhang Cuihua first put the vegetables and meat she had bought into the kitchen.
She searched the kitchen thoroughly and found that there was indeed nothing to eat.
"These young people nowadays, really... How can you not keep a little bit of food at home? What if Dekai comes home hungry after get off work?"
Zhang Cuihua felt sorry for her son. He had to train regularly and had a lot of things to do in the army. If he couldn't have a comfortable life at home, what was the point of living?
She felt that she should come more often in the future and bring some food.
I can't let my son go hungry.
After leaving the kitchen, Zhang Cuihua checked the living room and found it to be a mess, as if the house hadn't been cleaned...
"That Youyou is really something! Look at the mess she's made of the house!"
While berating Mo Youyou, Zhang Cuihua began tidying up.
She needs to find an opportunity to talk to her son and find a way to get him to move back!
Just then, the door lock made a sound.
After finishing their meal, Mo Youyou and Liu Dekai started arguing again, this time about Su Yueya, who had just come up in the topic.
"You're still in contact with her? Don't you want to live with her anymore?" Mo Youyou questioned.
"What did I contact her about? She said she was looking for Lu Zhengjun. What does that have to do with me? We just bumped into each other!" Liu Dekai was furious.
"Oh, this army is so big, how come she ran into you of all people? What a coincidence!" Mo Youyou said sarcastically.
"It's just a coincidence, believe it or not!" Liu Dekai wasn't going to coax anyone today.
His conversation with Su Yueya had already made him feel particularly unhappy.
Mo Youyou continued arguing with him, which annoyed him to no end.
"Liu Dekai, you're a real scoundrel!"
If he could coax her a bit, Mo Youyou might have let it go after venting, but if he didn't, Mo Youyou would be embarrassed and even angrier.
The two parted on bad terms.
Mo Youyou was so angry that she lost her composure and couldn't concentrate on her work, so she simply skipped work in the afternoon.
That's how it's always been; she'll skip work if she's in a bad mood.
Out of respect for Mo Cheng, the leaders didn't hold it against her, but it was tough on the people who worked with her.
But who can blame them when they have powerful connections?
Despite the complaints, Mo Youyou's life remained comfortable.
She was upset and wanted to go home and lie down.
When the door opened, they found Zhang Cuihua standing inside.
"Why are you here?" Mo Youyou asked.
Her tone was particularly harsh, as if Zhang Cuihua shouldn't be there at all.
Having just argued with Liu Dekai, she felt even more disgusted when she saw Zhang Cuihua, feeling that this country mother-in-law was simply a persistent ghost!
"Didn't I tell you not to come over unless it's absolutely necessary? Didn't you hear me?!"
Mo Youyou has always looked down on Zhang Cuihua, so there's no question of respecting her.
Zhang Cuihua: "..."
She was cleaning when her daughter-in-law came in and yelled at her, which startled her. She was completely at a loss and didn't know what to do with her hands and feet.
Not to mention arguing with Mo Youyou, she wouldn't dare.
"Say something!"
Zhang Cuihua's inability to utter a single fart for a long time only fueled Mo Youyou's anger, so she vented all her frustration on her mother-in-law.
"I... I'm just worried that you two young people don't know how to take care of yourselves!" Zhang Cuihua stammered, startled.
"I don't have anything else to do, I just thought I'd buy some groceries and bring them over to you."
As she spoke, Zhang Cuihua became a little more confident.
It wasn't so bad anymore, she thought to herself. She was doing it for their own good, and besides, she brought things with her, so Mo Youyou couldn't blame her.
"Youyou, don't worry, the groceries and meat I bought are all in the kitchen. I just noticed the house was a bit messy, so I thought I'd help tidy up..."
Upon hearing this, Mo Youyou finally calmed down a bit.
She went into the kitchen to see what Zhang Cuihua had brought.
Seeing that Mo Youyou stopped yelling, Zhang Cuihua became bolder.
As the mother-in-law, she has to teach her daughter-in-law how to be a wife.
"Youyou, Dekai works too hard in the army, so you need to pay more attention to his meals. He likes pork stew with vermicelli, so you can make it for him more often. He likes the cabbage leaves but doesn't like the stalks. The vermicelli needs to be stewed until it's very soft to taste good..."
Mo Youyou didn't listen at all; she went to the kitchen to take a look.
He held up two fingers and rummaged through the vegetables in the basket.
Vegetables made up the majority of the meal, and there was indeed some meat, but only a tiny amount.
Mo Youyou couldn't help but roll her eyes.
And you even came all the way here to deliver this?
You can't treat a beggar like this!
"Is this the food you brought?"
"It's all vegetarian food, no meat at all, how are we supposed to eat this?"
Mo Youyou suddenly remembered that she had accompanied Su Yueya to the market once before, and Su Yueya had bought all meat and didn't even look at the vegetables. But Zhang Cuihua said that she was there to deliver something, and that was all she was bringing.
Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous!
Before Mo Youyou got married, the meals she ate at her parents' home were never this shabby.
People say that a woman marries a man for food and clothing, so why is it that after she got married, her life is not as good as before?
It must all be Zhang Cuihua's fault. She's from the countryside and can't even bear to eat meat. Now we want to take care of her? That's just wishful thinking!
"There's meat! There is!"
Zhang Cuihua thought that she had dropped the meat while being polite to Su Yueya, so she quickly came to the kitchen to check.
She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the meat in the shopping basket, pointing to the small piece of pork.
"Youyou, didn't you see? The meat is right here!"
Mo Youyou: "..."
She was truly exasperated. Was Zhang Cuihua genuinely unable to understand, or was she pretending not to understand to deliberately provoke her?
"I'm not blind. What I mean is, how can you say you came here to deliver meat when it's so tiny? Is it even enough to fill a tooth gap?"
The blunt words, and the undisguised mockery in Mo Youyou's eyes, made Zhang Cuihua panic again.
When facing Mo Youyou, the daughter-in-law of the brigade commander, she often felt like she was tiptoeing around, as if whatever she did was beneath her dignity.
"Youyou, Mom thinks... Dekai's salary isn't high, so it's better for him to be more frugal with his food. As a couple, we'll have many expenses in the future, so we need to save money for a rainy day. You need to plan for the future!"
Zhang Cuihua's earnest advice failed to win Mo Youyou's approval.
She rolled her eyes, dismissing it with disdain.
"You don't need to worry about money. My parents will give me money. If you can't help me and Dekai, then shut up and mind your own business."
