Chapter 326: What a shameless person! She is jealous (Part 2)
"Third Aunt, what you said is not right. Even if we live in a villa, we dare not forget everyone. As the saying goes, even rich people have some poor relatives. We are not rich, but of course you are not poor either."
She first calls you "poor" and then says "you are not poor" to make amends. She says all the good and bad, sour and spicy things by herself.
Liu Shuting's face darkened slightly, but the corners of her mouth suddenly lifted. "So it's Yueyue! I didn't see you the last time I came. You went out to play alone during the summer vacation, and you didn't even help with the housework. I saw your parents' small pancake shop was so busy, and they didn't have anyone to help. I suggested introducing a helper to my eldest brother, but my eldest sister-in-law said no, because they had enough staff. She felt sorry for my good intentions..."
As he spoke, he felt quite melancholy.
The Jiang family doesn’t surf the Internet much or like to read the news, so they still don’t know about Jiang Fuyue’s amazing performance in the IPhO and IOI competitions.
Jiang Da and Han Yunru are also relatively low-key. They won't speak out unless others ask.
Therefore, they did not mention Jiang Fuyue's participation in summer camp and overseas competitions in front of the Jiang family, so that Liu Shuting actually thought that she was not at home and had gone out to play.
Jiang Fuyue grasped three key pieces of information from the other party's words:
First, this is not the first time that the Jiang family has come to visit. They had come before when she was away.
Second, Liu Shuting indirectly mocked her for being ignorant.
Third, this young aunt also wants to interfere in the pancake shop's business.
Jiang Fuyue really wanted to ask: Where do you get the courage?
However, she held back, just to save face for Jiang Da.
Han Yunru smiled and quickly adjusted her mood: "I appreciate your kindness, Third Sister-in-law, but we've already hired a senior sister in the store, so we don't need any more staff for now."
Liu Shuting rolled her eyes and said, "Wouldn't it be better if there were more people? You and Big Brother have worked so hard..."
"Really, no need," Han Yunru insisted on this matter, and hinted at a sense of strength. "We're a small business, and we can't afford to hire so many people."
"Sister-in-law, you're joking," Liu Shuting said in a light voice. She glanced at the beautifully decorated living room, a flicker of jealousy flashing across her eyes, but then she completely subsided as she lowered her gaze. "You and brother are living in a villa in Yutian Mansion, so you can't afford to pay a waiter's salary?"
Han Yunru didn't respond, but she never gave in.
Liu Shuting stood there, feeling inexplicably embarrassed.
Yang Jinqiu watched coldly, obviously not intending to help his sister-in-law, and even silently cursed her as "idiot".
Others may not know, but she can see it clearly. The unwillingness on Liu Shuting's face is not because Han Yunru refused to hire the person she recommended. It is obvious that she is dissatisfied with the fact that her sister-in-law, who has always lived worse than her, suddenly turned the tide and lived in a rich family.
This is the villa of Yutianhuafu!
It’s still a detached house!
It covers a vast area and is beautifully decorated, with the kind of magnificence that one can only see in TV dramas.
But Han Yunru actually moved in directly?
How would the always proud Liu Shuting feel about this?
She always thought that she had the best family background among the three daughters-in-law of the Jiang family. She drove a BMW and lived in a duplex. Before that, she was so proud of herself.
But she never expected that Han Yunru would overtake her and move into a house that she could not even imagine.
It’s just… hateful!
If we were to ask who best understands Liu Shuting, it would certainly be Yang Jinqiu.
As sisters-in-law, who wouldn’t be jealous of such good fortune?
Every time I look at this big house, I feel like there’s an ant crawling in my heart - it’s itchy!
But Yang Jinqiu was smarter than Liu Shuting. She remained calm and let the clown come out to dance and make noise while she watched the show from the side.
Jiang Qin was also feeling sad. She was looking around at the moment and had no time to help Liu Shuting out of the predicament.
Besides, what she disliked most was her third sister-in-law who was shrewd and clever in everything.
She was so embarrassed that she couldn't even laugh!
Liu Shuting was left out like this. Seeing that no one spoke up for her, she immediately turned around and threw herself into Jiang Teng's arms in grievance.
"Hubby, I'm just thinking about my big brother and sister-in-law. I don't have any other intentions."
Jiang Teng quickly tried to comfort him: "I know, everyone knows it too, be good and don't think too much."
Jiang Fuyue suddenly got goosebumps.
Yang Jinqiu couldn't help but curl her lips. What a coquettish thing she was. She didn't care about her dignity at all and flirted with the man at home on the spot.
Liu Shuting was not satisfied with her husband's reaction: She was so wronged, why didn't Jiang Teng blame Han Yunru? Stop coaxing her, start scolding her!
Unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, Jiang Teng showed no sign of getting angry.
She couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Of course Jiang Teng didn't dare to get angry, because he had already seen Jiang Da coming, but he was standing a little far away and no one noticed him.
If he dares to disrespect Han Yunru, there is no doubt that the eldest brother will skin him alive.
Besides, Jiang Hua didn't come today because he had something to do. If they really fought, he with his skinny arms and legs would definitely not be able to defeat the boss.
So, I guess I should just bear with it...
Liu Shuting stepped out of his embrace and glared at him. It was useless!
He leaned on the wheelchair and complained to the old lady: "Mom, sister-in-law really misunderstood me. Don't you know who I am?"
The old lady dotes on her youngest son, and her daughter-in-law is also well taken care of by her.
Especially after being wronged, being able to come to her, an old lady, to complain shows that his position in the family is unshakable, which makes the old lady very satisfied.
"My eldest daughter-in-law, you..."
Seeing the old lady about to speak, Jiang Fuyue didn't want Han Yunru to feel wronged, so she smiled and said, "Grandma, you brought your second aunt, third aunt, uncle, and aunt here just to introduce helpers to my mother? That's really great."
The old lady's expression froze, and she stopped talking before she could even finish her words.
She didn't come here to help her younger daughter-in-law cause trouble for her elder daughter-in-law. If she really upset Han Yunru, then what she would say next...
"Third daughter-in-law, although you have good intentions, you know nothing about the business of the store. It's better not to cause trouble for your eldest sister-in-law."
When it comes to changing with the times, the old lady has lived for most of her life. If she were second, no one present would dare to be first.
Liu Shuting: “?”
Why is it different from what I thought?
Han Yunru's expression eased slightly, and then she softened her tone: "Mom, have you eaten yet? We are still eating, do you want to eat something together?"
Of course, after asking the old lady, she did not forget the other four people.
The old lady said: "I ate a little before coming here. I didn't realize it until you told me. Now that you've told me, I think I'm a little hungry."
What I mean is, although I have already eaten, I will still give you face and eat some more.
Since the old lady had spoken, Jiang Teng and Jiang Qin naturally had no reason to refuse.
The last time they came, they only entered the living room and had no chance to see other parts of the villa. Eating and other things were not important. What was important was that they could stay and see what the most luxurious villa in Linhuai's famous wealthy area looked like.
After they went back last time, they checked and found out that this villa was located on A3 plot and was the best building in the community!
In this way, several people were invited into the dining room.
Liu Shuting's eyes widened. This dining table and these candlesticks were all high-end foreign custom-made. Even the small tablecloth was printed with the Hermès logo.
Not to mention the crystal chandelier above, with its luxurious pendants hanging down and sparkling light, casting a warm sweet orange hue over the entire restaurant.
She had heard people say before that to estimate the value of a crystal chandelier, laymen look at the lighting, while experts look at the light.
The light from a truly precious crystal chandelier cannot be too warm, as that would make people feel suffocated, nor can it be too soft, otherwise it would lose its momentum and affect the overall decoration style.
Because she had never seen it before, Liu Shuting didn't believe it at first. She thought the socialite was showing off to show how good she was.
But now, she believed it.
Jiang Teng is not much better than his wife, he is not even as good as Liu Shuting.
After all, the latter was born into a wealthy family and was brought up in pampered childhood, so he had seen a lot of the world. However, Jiang Teng was a child from an ordinary family. With his good looks and eloquence, he went through great pains to marry Liu Shuting, so he was definitely not as knowledgeable as Jiang Teng.
He looked at the shiny floor tiles and examined them closely, but could not find any gaps between them. It was like a huge, solid piece embedded in the dining room floor.
How much does this cost?
He didn't know what a table or candlestick was, nor could he identify a crystal chandelier. He only knew that the table was glossy with purple, and the purple was tinged with brown, which looked very beautiful.
The candlesticks were also used, and lighting the candles added a lot of romance, which was totally inconsistent with the eldest brother's burly image.
The light was warm and dim, making the dishes on the table look bright and colorful.
Gulp——
He swallowed reluctantly.
Second update, 3,000 words.
Three o'clock in the morning, half past ten.
