Chapter 48 Gaining Husbands’ Trust
Old Mrs. Mu’s attitude was disheartening, so Yu Miaomiao made a very simple lunch: cabbage and taro soup with steamed buns.
"Is this what we're eating today?"
Not only Mrs. Mu, everyone was very dissatisfied.
Yu Miaomiao said expressionlessly: "Why? Still want to eat meat every meal? Is it that family?"
Everyone was embarrassed.
Working class families cannot eat meat every meal!
"Second son's wife, didn't we say that we would eat meat every day? Aren't there still some oil residue? It's okay if you cook it with some oil." said Old Man Mu.
He had just gone to Xiaxin Village to deal with Lao Yu. Where else in the world could there be such a good father-in-law? Shouldn't he be served with good food and drink?
"There's not much left, so eat it sparingly." Su Tang looked around, "Hey, where's Lao Wu?"
Only then did everyone realize that Mu Jingrong had not returned yet.
Everyone was used to him living on campus and for a moment they didn't remember that today was the weekend.
"He went into the mountains early in the morning. Don't worry about him." Mu Jingzhou said.
Su Tang's eyes twitched: "Third brother, he is your brother! The mountains are so dangerous..."
"What's dangerous? He has followed us into the mountains since he was old enough to understand things. He is very familiar with it." Mu Jingzhou was jealous again.
He goes into the mountains to feed wild boars every now and then, but his wife never worries about him.
"Uh, okay!"
For the sake of her waist, Su Tang decided to keep her mouth shut.
Yu Miaomiao scooped out the food into a bowl and put it in the hot water pot so that she could eat it hot when Lao Wu came back.
Mu Jingyun looked at his wife and finally realized something was wrong. He asked, "What happened to you today?"
"What's wrong with her? It seems that Mingzhu copied her design drawings, so she's angry and doesn't cook properly!" Old Mrs. Mu complained while eating.
Not enough oil or meat, tastes bland.
"What?"
Everyone put down their chopsticks at the same time and looked at Yu Miaomiao in unison.
"Haha, stop joking, how is that possible?" Mu Jingyuan was the first to laugh, "Second sister-in-law, Mingzhu is a college student and has a high level of education. How could she possibly copy your drawings?"
"You must be mistaken! Mingzhu is not only highly educated, but also has resources in the provincial capital. Does she need to steal your pictures? Don't be so funny." Old Man Mu also found it ridiculous.
Mu Jingzhou frowned and didn't comment.
Su Tang really wanted to know what he was thinking, so she asked, "Third brother, what do you think?"
"Maybe... it's a misunderstanding?" Mu Jingzhou's relatively conservative statement made Su Tang very happy.
As long as you don't blindly believe in Shen Mingzhu, it will be a great progress!
After so many nights of sleeping in various ways, there is some effect.
"What's the misunderstanding? Mingzhu would never steal the pictures of my second brother's wife. She shouldn't do that!" Old Man Mu raised his voice angrily.
Mu Jingyuan also said: "That's right!"
"Eat, eat! Stop talking about those nonsense that will ruin your mood!" Although Grandma Mu thought the soup was unpalatable, she still served herself a second bowl of soup and drank it with loud slurps.
Only Li Lan did not express her opinion - it is none of her business, so she just stayed out of it!
Based on what I've observed during this meal, the second brother's wife is quite capable. The second brother also dotes on the second brother's wife.
There is absolutely no need to make such a big fuss just to discredit Shen Mingzhu.
Maybe there really is an inside story that they can't imagine.
She had reservations at first.
“Pah—”
Mu Jingyun, who had been silent, suddenly put down his bowl and said, "I won't be working this afternoon."
"What are you doing if you don't work?" Old man Mu glared at his son out of habit.
"Into the city."
Mu Jingyun pulled Yu Miaomiao up and left.
Yu Miaomiao quickly asked: "Why are you going into the city?"
"Go ask Teacher Qin what's going on with your design drawing!" Mu Jingyun's face was gloomy and his tone was angry.
"Second brother, my third sister-in-law and I went to see Teacher Qin yesterday. She didn't open the store in the provincial capital today." Yu Miaomiao shook her head and looked at Mu Jingyun steadily, "Do you believe me?"
Mu Jingyun's palms were covered with sweat and complicated emotions surged in his heart.
He has to choose between Shen Mingzhu and Yu Miaomiao.
Both are women he cherishes, and it is really difficult to choose without a definite answer.
"If second brother doesn't believe me, then forget it..." Yu Miaomiao lowered her eyes and wanted to pull her hand away.
She was a head shorter than Mu Jingyun, and the way she lowered her eyebrows and eyes at this moment seemed to Mu Jingyun like: lonely! Very lonely!
Because he didn't believe her, she was sad!
"Wife, it's not that I don't believe you...
"Then you believe me?"
"Of course I believe it! I saw Mingzhu take your picture away with my own eyes. So we have to go to the county town to find Teacher Qin and ask him clearly! How did your picture become hers?"
Su Tang heard Mu Jingyun's strong desire to survive not far away, and she covered her mouth and laughed.
As long as Mu Jingyun believes it, this matter will be done!
Mu Jingzhou also heard it and asked Su Tang in a low voice: "Did Mingzhu really take the picture?"
"Yes! We talked to Teacher Qin yesterday. Shen Mingzhu didn't give the second sister-in-law's drawing to Teacher Qin. Instead, she drew it again and handed it to the clothing factory in her name. Now those clothes are on sale!"
“Too much!”
Mu Jingzhou got angry when he heard this.
In the eyes of these junior high school students, their second sister-in-law who can design clothes is even better than college students.
The drawings that my second sister-in-law had racked her brains to draw every day were just copied away. It was like the wedding dress that had just been sewn was stolen!
"Hubby, you're so smart!" Su Tang leaned towards Mu Jingzhou and stood on tiptoe to touch his ear. "You and my second brother are the only ones in this family who have good eyesight and correct values."
The warm breath swept across his ears and neck, causing a tingling sensation.
He tensed all his nerves, afraid that if he relaxed he would not be able to resist kissing her.
The teasing lasted only a second, and Su Tang retracted after praising him: "There was mud on your ears, but it's gone now."
In the bright sunshine, her eyes flickered as if they could speak.
There is not a trace of evil thoughts.
Mu Jingzhou could only take a deep breath and suppress the evil fire in his body.
"Honey, our soap is almost done. I'll take you to see it."
"Um."
The soap in the rectangular wooden box is very moist and has a strong fragrance. It looks better than those sold in the supply and marketing cooperatives.
Mu Jingzhou was so excited: "Wife, you and your second sister-in-law are really capable. These soaps will definitely sell for a good price."
"After I sell it, I'll treat you to a meal at a state-owned restaurant." Su Tang put the soap box back with a smile.
No one believed that she and Yu Miaomiao were capable, so this incident of the design being copied was a good opportunity to let them broaden their horizons!
If she calculated correctly, Qin Xian should have known the result by this time tomorrow.
According to the way of doing things in that era, Qin Xian would bring Shen Mingzhu to Chahe Village to make things clear.
Shen Mingzhu will definitely find a way to exonerate herself, and then she will officially cut the soap!
"Second sister-in-law and third sister-in-law, I'm back! Come and see what I brought you?" Mu Jingrong's excited voice came.
Su Tang blinked curiously and went out to ask, "Fifth brother, why did you come back just now? Are you hungry?"
"Third sister-in-law, look!"
