Volume 1 Chapter 865 Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law
———
"Mom, are you interested in this?"
Meng Huai'en semi-retired from the entertainment industry after winning the Youngest Film Actress award, but her fame has never diminished. This year she decided to change her career and plans to enter the film industry.
As the only descendant of a drug enforcement police family, she wants to perform for the country and tell everyone about her heroic deeds.
Before she changed her career, her agent showed her two variety show contracts, which she could use as a transition period and tell everyone about her future work arrangements on the show.
One variety show is about mother and son, and the other is about mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. She originally wanted to refuse both because she didn't want her child to appear in the public eye.
What's more, there is no need for her mother-in-law's international status and social status to appear in entertainment headlines.
"Your father has been called back by the country. I think he will be busy in the next few months."
Although Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao have not retired yet, they both hold high positions, especially Gu Tingxiao, who is the commander-in-chief of the Kyoto Military Region and is extremely busy.
Sheng Wanyan focused on training her son-in-law Xu Jiaming, and Xu Jiaming lived up to her expectations and was even better than she was at the beginning.
She is currently on vacation, and she and Gu Tingxiao had agreed to take a vacation together to see the beautiful mountains and rivers of the motherland.
But there is a major event in the military region now, and Gu Tingxiao is needed to go back to take charge of the situation, leaving Sheng Wanyan alone at home.
"Aren't you planning to transform? If you need mom's help, I can go with you."
“But will it have a bad impact?”
"No, your entertainment industry should have a lot of young people paying attention to it, right?"
"yes."
"It just so happens that I am on the show, so I can see if I can increase the attention of our country's young people to national affairs."
Sheng Wanyan also knows that young people nowadays like to chase stars, and she also wants to use this opportunity to increase young people's attention to national affairs.
"Mom, this is a variety show about how mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along. We have to travel around."
"Are you too tired?"
"Traveling! I love it!"
When Sheng Wanyan heard that she could travel around, she instantly became excited. Traveling is great! She was getting bored at home.
Meng Huai'en felt relieved when he heard that his mother-in-law really wasn't accommodating him for his own sake.
Her mother-in-law is a very good mother-in-law, but her own parents-in-law hold high positions and are members of the country, so as daughters-in-law, they would rather not bring trouble to the family than do so.
"Would you like to join us, sister-in-law?"
"Call your sister-in-law and ask her. If she's too busy, let her mind her own business."
Sheng Wanyan also felt that it would be best if her eldest daughter-in-law came along. After all, they were all her daughters-in-law, and she couldn't just leave one of them behind to go out and play.
But as a career-oriented mother-in-law, she never forces her daughters-in-law to give up their careers. Instead, she hopes that they can focus on their careers.
Qin Shisang is a director and screenwriter, and she is also a member of this circle, but as the eldest daughter-in-law, she basically puts her focus on her family.
Especially after having children, she rarely filmed TV series. Instead, she joined the establishment and joined the national television station, shooting promotional videos for the country, etc.
Not to mention that she did a pretty good job, making promotional videos and movies for the country, which won her many awards, both big and small.
Meng Huai'en plans to switch to the film industry, which was also discussed by his sisters-in-law. Qin Shisang discovered that Meng Huai'en's acting skills are really good.
I happened to have a movie script about a national fighter pilot, and I wanted her to play a female pilot in the movie I was planning to shoot!
The two sisters-in-law had a coincidence and were just waiting to start filming after Meng Huai'en's variety show was over.
Qin Shisang was preparing for a new movie. When he heard that his mother-in-law was really going to participate in a variety show, he naturally had to squeeze out time to accompany her.
"Mom, my sister-in-law said it's okay."
Sheng Wanyan smiled and nodded, then called the country to explain her intention to participate in the variety show and her ideas.
"It's a good thing. National affairs can't always be watched by the older generation."
"The future of the country depends on young people. Young people must be trained, but your safety is the most important issue."
"The state will secretly send people to protect you."
"Thank you, leader."
Sheng Wanyan had a three-month vacation, and her agreement shocked the variety show director.
But the next moment he screamed excitedly and immediately ordered his men to bring the contract to the door.
"mom."
Qin Shisang returned home. They had just gotten married and lived outside, but after having a child, Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao paid attention to the child's education.
So Gu Jinchen and Gu Jinli both brought their wives and children back home to live. The yard was big enough for Sheng Wanyan to separate the two small families.
The eldest son's family has one yard, the youngest son's family has another yard, and my daughter's family also has a separate yard.
There wouldn't be any conflicts since they were far apart. Besides, Sheng Wanyan had divided the family long ago, so she didn't even give the two brothers a chance to quarrel.
Thanks to the fact that the two men married wives who were sensible and generous, they got along well with each other, and the family lived in harmony, and Sheng Wanyan was also happy and at ease.
She used to think about conflicts between sisters-in-law, conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and she even fantasized about how they would fight with wits and courage.
But it turned out that her two daughters-in-law were more sensible than the other, and she became the one who was taken care of in the family.
"You're back?"
Sheng Wanyan was wearing a cheongsam and drinking tea and reading in the back garden, while Meng Huai'en was sitting beside her and taking a nap with his eyes closed.
"Sister-in-law."
Meng Huai'en woke up when he heard the sound and handed Qin Shisang a cup of milk tea. The two sisters-in-law were sweet lovers and loved to drink milk tea and some junk food.
Sheng Wanyan would occasionally drink a cup of milk tea and spicy strips, but now she is more interested in health preservation and just indulges herself occasionally.
“That variety show tour doesn’t go abroad, right?”
"Not going abroad."
Qin Shisang breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he didn't have to go abroad, his mother was not suitable for going abroad after all.
"That's good."
Soon the director came with the contract. Sheng Wanyan did not show up, so Qin Shisang and Meng Huai'en negotiated with the director.
As the eldest daughter-in-law and with Sheng Wanyan's special training, Qin Shisang knows how to do many things.
She had to consider details, safety, and the reputation of the Gu family.
However, Meng Huai'en was really not smart in these aspects. Sheng Wanyan tried to train her several times but failed to make her smart.
But Sheng Wanyan knew what was going on. This was not about being stupid, but about avoiding conflict with Qin Shisang.
After all, Qin Shisang will be the mistress of the family in the future, and as a sister-in-law, she should play a supporting role instead of competing!
They can be good friends or good sisters, but they still need to be clear about the differences.
Just like her mother-in-law Sheng Wanyan and her aunt (Liang Nazhen), she should respect her sister-in-law in her heart. This was the first principle her mother-in-law taught her.
After the contract was signed, the program began recording soon, using live broadcast, which is a new technology developed by Gu Jinli's company and is widely used in the media industry.
Soon the show started and someone came to the house to film early in the morning. Sheng Wanyan was still sleepy and no one urged her to wake up. Gu Tingxiao kissed Sheng Wanyan on the forehead before going to the army.
