Yu Zihan eats everything but never suffers a loss. She endures being scolded for no reason.
She looked at Zhao Yumei and said, "It's New Year's Day, and my mother is just giving some candy to the children who are visiting. You see some people are jealous, I don't know what's going on with you."
Who is being offended by giving a child a few candies when wishing him a happy new year? It even has something to do with whether one is rich or poor."
Zhao Yumei couldn't hold back her anger after hearing Yu Zihan's ruthless words. She said sarcastically, "People from the countryside are different. No matter how rich they are, they have no manners. Is this how you talk to adults? You're so young and need to leave a way out for yourself. You'll have to get married in the future. It's not good to be so sharp-tongued."
Yu Zihan looked up at Zhao Yumei. He really underestimated this woman. It would be a pity if she didn't use her eloquence to perform crosstalk. But no matter how good she was, she had met a tough opponent today.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you keep calling me a country person. You're so uneducated! I don't know what noble family you come from. Although family background isn't a big deal these days, if you count from your own ancestors, they were all farmers. How can you openly criticize your ancestors during the New Year? If your ancestors heard it, they would be so angry that they would crawl out of their graves to settle the score with you.
Besides, it's not your turn to worry about my affairs. Why do you have to make the final decision on my affairs? Do you have the final say on whether I can get married or not?
You're allowed to spout sour words, but I'm not allowed to say anything about you? Are you the bully in this alley? Oh my, you scared me to death."
Everyone burst into laughter at Yu Zihan's words, and Zhao Yumei couldn't find anything else to say, so she had to leave angrily.
Yu Meijuan said to everyone: "Look at my daughter, she is so quick-witted." It sounded like she was blaming her, but in fact, everyone could hear the arrogance in her tone.
Yu Meijuan looked at the aunts and grandmas around her and said, "We happened to see you all at Aunt Wang's house today. My daughter and I won't go to your homes to bother you. We will take advantage of Aunt Wang's place to wish you all a happy new year here. I wish you all good health and good luck in the new year." She held Yu Zihan's hand while speaking.
Yu Zihan also said a few auspicious words in a proper manner.
What the mother and daughter said were things that everyone liked to hear, so everyone had a better impression of them.
They were just going through the motions and now that they had completed their mission, they left quickly.
After the mother and daughter left, these old women started talking to each other.
Aunt Sun asked Aunt Wang with great interest, "Yu Meijuan doesn't look like a country girl. Look at her demeanor. No one would believe she's a city cadre."
"Yes, Yu Meijuan's appearance is beyond words, first-rate." Aunt Wang couldn't help but praise her. She was very pleased that the mother and daughter came to her early this morning to wish her a happy new year.
Moreover, before the New Year, Yu Meijuan had specially sent them several large pieces of braised pork, which were cooked to a certain standard, which made her, a housewife, praised by her family on her own New Year's Eve for the first time. She also took time to learn cooking skills from Yu Meijuan.
"Is she really divorced?" Aunt Sun asked meaningfully.
"Of course I'm right. I paid special attention to it when I was handling the property paperwork with them. And their household registration is definitely not in the city, they're from Shanghe Village."
When Aunt Wang said this, she realized she had said too much. But she looked at the people around her. They were all her old friends. Chatting with her old friends meant she was talking about what they wanted to hear. Otherwise, how could she show that she was the gossipy person in this alley?
Thinking of this, Aunt Wang's slight sense of guilt disappeared.
"He's a nice guy, and his age is right, but he's divorced and has a burden. And that burden is not easy to deal with." Aunt Sun said to herself.
Everyone present heard her words, and everyone looked at Aunt Sun. Oh my god, it’s not what we thought, right?
Aunt Wang looked at Aunt Sun with disbelief.
Aunt Sun noticed everyone's gazes, and she knew what everyone was thinking. She didn't care what these people thought. As long as she could find a satisfactory wife for her son, what did it matter if others said a few words?
It was a coincidence that she ran into Yu Meijuan today. She was good-looking and from the village, so she must have no background. It was easier to control such a person after she got married.
She was determined to be the daughter-in-law. She said naturally, "It's just as you think. I want Yu Meijuan to be my daughter-in-law."
"You are not kidding, are you?" Aunt Wang said in a loud voice.
"What do you mean, is a divorced woman from the village not good enough for my son?
I don't have time for jokes. I'm really into Yu Meijuan. It's just that her daughter is so annoying. If she agrees not to bring her daughter along, I think this would be a good match."
When everyone heard what Aunt Sun said, some people rolled their eyes. A good marriage is what you think it is.
Aunt Wang was also speechless and said, "Auntie Sun, have you really thought about this matter carefully?"
Looking at everyone's expressions, Aunt Sun said confidently, as if she didn't understand what they meant, "Of course I have the final say on my son's affairs."
Everyone was thinking, "Don't you know what your son is like? You have the final say on his affairs, but you want him to make his own decisions. Does he have the ability to do that?"
Everyone was thinking the same thing, but since they had lived together as neighbors for many years, none of them had the nerve to confront her directly. However, they were starting to worry about Yu Meijuan.
Aunt Wang was particularly fond of Yu Meijuan. She would be very upset if Yu Meijuan suffered a loss because of Aunt Sun's idea.
She secretly made up her mind. She had to contact Yu Meijuan as soon as possible. She couldn't agree to this marriage. Although the Sun family was a wealthy family with no worries about food and drink, it was a hell of a pit.
Everyone in this alley knows about it, except Yu Meili, the newcomer who just moved in.
Perhaps sensing Aunt Wang's thoughts, Aunt Sun deliberately said to her, "Aunt Wang, you'd better not talk nonsense about our family affairs. We are old neighbors who know each other well. Don't let outsiders ruin our friendship."
As she said this, she glanced at the women around her, the meaning in her eyes clear. A stark warning.
"Haha, I don't want to get involved in your affairs. I'm not someone who doesn't know the limits." Aunt Wang said this, but she secretly made up her mind to reveal some of the Sun family's affairs to Yu Meili, so as to avoid letting such a good person get into trouble.
Aunt Sun looked at everyone's expressions and thought to herself, even if you leave me alone, you dare not ruin my family's business.
Then she exchanged a few words with everyone and left in a hurry.
The group was left with their own thoughts. Their good mood was interrupted by this incident, and they didn't want to stay any longer. They all left and went home.
