When they arrived home, not only Zhong Meixian but also Gu's aunt, Gu Jin, were sitting in the Gu family's yard.
The wild vegetable basket was too full, so Wen Tang came back carrying the melon seeds in his hand.
A large bag of melon seeds is particularly eye-catching.
Zhong Meixian had already told Gu Jin about the matter of picking wild vegetables in name but actually buying snacks.
Because when Gu Jin came, he saw that Zhong Meixian was the only one in the yard, so he couldn't help but ask a question.
It would have been fine if Gu Jin hadn't asked, but he did. When Zhong Meixian mentioned this strange thing about her family, she couldn't help but slap her thigh and tell it all.
Gu Jin had already witnessed the outrageous behavior of the two new daughters-in-law last time, but she never expected that there was nothing more outrageous, only the most outrageous.
It's just outrageous. His mother opened the door for outrageous things. It's outrageous to the extreme.
"This... is she so nice?"
Zhong Meixian nodded. "Yeah, that's nice of you. That's nice of you."
"If you don't believe me, come back later and take a look!"
Gu Jin nodded.
By the way, I complained to Zhong Meixian about Luo Qiao, "Don't get in touch with those two sisters surnamed Luo in the future. They are not good people."
"That younger sister was saved by Yan Li anyway, but do you know what that older sister said in the field yesterday?"
Zhong Meixian shook her head.
Gu Jin was so unlucky when he opened his mouth, "How shameless! He actually made up a story about Yan Li's wife, saying that she is fickle..."
"How shameless!" Zhong Meixian immediately stood up in anger, and it seemed that she wanted to fight with others!
Gu Jin quickly pulled the person back and said, "Don't be angry, don't be angry. An Cheng scolded them and forced them to apologize at that time."
"I came here to tell you not to be fooled by them. I heard that they came to see you yesterday evening, right?"
"Oh, that's because he went to Zhongguo to complain but failed, and was scolded by Ancheng, so he behaved himself. And I don't know what evil he is up to!"
"I'm telling you, the two of them might be making a fuss. Today, they asked someone to tell Zhongguo that they want to cook on their own and not eat at the educated youth camp!"
"If they don't build a stove, they'll complain to the commune. Zhongguo has no choice but to arrange for someone to build one for them. Just imagine, it's been like this every day."
Zhong Meixian was amazed, "He's really noisy."
As the two were talking, Wen Tang and others came in.
Because of what Zhong Meixian said in advance, Gu Jin's first glance fell on the melon seeds in Wen Tang's hand.
Gu Jin: My goodness, this is such a big bag of melon seeds. Normally, no one would be willing to buy so many during the Chinese New Year, right?
I heard that he bought candies, peach cakes and other things last time, no wonder he could fill a whole basket. This...
Her niece-in-law is such a greedy person!
In Gu Jin's opinion, Wen Tang is the only one in the area who is so greedy!
When Wen Tang saw Gu Jin sitting there, he smiled politely, greeted him and called him.
Chi Yue and the others also called for help.
Wen Tang even opened the melon seeds and gave them to people to eat!
Gu Jin waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, it's not a festival, I won't eat it."
As soon as Gu Jin finished speaking, Wen Tang asked, "Aunt, did you tell me?"
Gu Jin: “…”
"Oh, you kid, you..." She was embarrassed, "I..." She sat there, slapping her legs slightly, as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, and desperately winked at Zhong Meixian, hoping that Zhong Meixian would rescue her.
She said that with the intention of squeezing Wen Tang, but...
She glanced at Wen Tang, her face full of self-righteousness.
Gu Jin: This is really...how can a new bride be so shameless!
If most people were to be scolded like this by their elders at home, they would want to find a hole to crawl into. How come she is not ashamed at all and even dares to question her elder?
She thought again of the words she heard yesterday when she came to Gu's house. It turned out that those words were not only said to her sister-in-law, but also to her?
Otherwise, you see, as soon as I said this, she immediately became unwilling.
Fortunately, Zhong Meixian still had a conscience and knew to help her out, "No, your aunt doesn't like to eat melon seeds. She gets irritated when she eats them."
"It's not ready before the New Year or other holidays. There's nothing we can do. She usually doesn't eat it."
Gu Jin nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, that's right."
Wen Tang nodded and motioned for Lin Jiaojiao to bring over a stool. After sitting down, he opened the melon seeds and started eating. "Oh, so that's how it is. You are so unlucky, little aunt."
Gu Jin: “…”
No, she gave birth to three sons, all of whom are tall and handsome, and she married three daughters-in-law who are also filial. Who wouldn’t say that she is blessed when seeing her?
This niece-in-law...
Thinking of this, Gu Jin's face looked a little embarrassed and unhappy.
Gu Jin was a close relative after all. Zhong Meixian was afraid that her daughter-in-law would offend him, so she quickly smiled and said, "You are talking nonsense, kid. How could your aunt not be blessed?"
"Your aunt is the most blessed person."
"Your aunt's three daughters-in-law are all very filial. She doesn't have to worry about anything at home. Who in this area can compare to your aunt?"
Gu Jin felt that his sister-in-law was right and raised his chin unconsciously.
But Wen Tang also spoke up quickly. She looked at Zhong Meixian with a smile and said, "But I think you are better, Mom. You are good to me."
"You treat me like your own daughter. Even though I'm your daughter-in-law, you don't want me to work. When you're old, I won't want you to work either."
"Not only will I feed you delicious food every day, but I'll also hire someone to take care of you and let you live like an old lady."
"But when you're young, it's different to control your daughter-in-law!"
Chi Yue grabbed a handful of melon seeds and added, "That's right. You can tell a mother-in-law's character by the age of ten, and a daughter-in-law's character by the age of ten. When the mother-in-law was young, she relied on her youth and strength to think that her daughter-in-law couldn't do it. But when she gets old and lies down on the bed, she'll have to be careful."
