Song Che's younger brother was admitted to a university in the next city. Although he was smart, he was not a genius like Zhou Ling. It was already quite good that he was able to get into a university in the next city.
“It’s fine to be in the next city. I can come back during holidays.” Song Che was relieved to know that his brother’s university was in the next city.
His brother's health wasn't very good to begin with, so living closer to home meant that family members could take care of him, which was a good thing.
"Hehe, so-so. My sister-in-law is much more impressive. She even got into a university like Tsinghua."
Song Yu really thought his sister-in-law was amazing. She was usually quiet and unassuming, but he never expected that she would be admitted to a university in the capital.
Those who used to say behind his back that his sister-in-law had married above her station and that the Song family had been wronged, can no longer say anything bad about her.
"Let's talk about it later. Can you go back and take a shower first?"
As soon as Chen Suwen entered, she found a seat and sat down. Seeing that they were still standing and exchanging pleasantries, she couldn't help but speak up to remind them.
After such a long train ride, I smell terrible. Can I take a shower first before we talk?
Song Yu realized that it wasn't good for her to stop her brother and sister-in-law from speaking, so she apologized somewhat embarrassedly and told them to go and wash up quickly.
"Chen, come with your uncle, he'll help you take a bath."
"I'm with my dad."
Song Che and Zhou Ling took the child back to their room and were about to take a bath when Chen Suwen remained calmly seated in her chair, showing no intention of getting up.
"Why is my mother-in-law here?"
A young woman came in from outside. When she saw Chen Suwen, her expression changed slightly, and she greeted her in a somewhat stiff tone.
Chen Suwen didn't care that the woman's attitude towards her wasn't very good. As long as she didn't start by cursing at her, she was too lazy to argue with her.
"What? Can't I come and see my daughter? My daughter and son-in-law are back, can't I come and see them?"
The young woman, Song Yu's wife, forced a smile upon hearing this, "Sure, why not?"
"It is truly an honor for our humble abode to have such a capable person as our mother-in-law come to visit."
The eldest son of the Song family was serving in the army and was not in Guangzhou. His wife and children were also in the same place as him. Only Song Yu, the youngest son with poor health, stayed with his parents.
As Song Yu's wife, Su Huiling naturally stayed in Guangzhou with him to take care of her parents.
Perhaps because her elder brother and sisters-in-law were not around, she took it for granted that she was the mistress of the house and that she would be in charge of the family once her mother-in-law stopped managing affairs.
He wasn't very friendly to Zhou Ling, and naturally he wouldn't be very friendly to Chen Suwen, Zhou Ling's biological mother.
I always felt that Chen Suwen came here to help Zhou Ling fight for the family property.
“My dear in-laws are truly remarkable. Look at how many successful people your family has produced now, even my second sister-in-law has become a student at Tsinghua University.”
"Second sister-in-law is so lucky. With a mother like you to help her plan, she married into a good family and was even admitted to Tsinghua University. It's truly enviable."
To say whether Su Huiling was jealous of Zhou Ling, the answer is definitely yes.
Even though Zhou Ling's family background was inferior to hers, as they were both daughters-in-law of the Song family, Zhou Ling always seemed to be superior to her, which made her resentful.
Now that Zhou Ling has been admitted to such a good university, won't people praise her even more when they talk about the Song family's daughter-in-law?
This was intolerable to Su Huiling.
Chen Suwen knew Su Huiling's attitude as soon as she heard what she meant.
It was indeed the original owner's scheme that Zhou Ling married into the Song family, but if Zhou Ling hadn't been outstanding enough, would she have been able to gain a foothold?
Even if Zhou Ling gets into university, it's because she's talented and smart enough that no one else can be jealous of her.
“There’s no use in being envious. Who told you you didn’t have a good mother?” Chen Suwen replied calmly.
"Young comrade, are you implying that your husband is inferior to my son-in-law?"
"You look down on your husband? You feel you didn't marry as well as my daughter?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect that. We're both daughters-in-law of the Song family, but you think your husband is inferior to my son-in-law, and you're jealous of my daughter?"
Chen Suwen spoke bluntly, pointing out Su Huiling's thoughts.
Although Song Yu could not join the army due to health reasons and could only do other jobs arranged by his parents, it is not fair to say that he was not outstanding.
They've been admitted to university and will be able to go even further in the future, so why are they so disliked?
"Young man, are you dissatisfied with your husband and want a divorce? Or do you hope your husband will join the army like my son-in-law, regardless of whether his body can adapt to military training?"
Chen Suwen's implication was that Su Huiling disliked Song Yu and wanted to challenge him to do things he couldn't do, regardless of his physical condition.
They portrayed Su Huiling as someone who would stop at nothing to achieve her goals and disregard her man's health.
Su Huiling's expression turned ugly as expected, and she said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I ever look down on Song Yu?"
Su Huiling turned to Song Yu and explained, "Ayu, don't listen to her nonsense. I absolutely did not mean to look down on you."
Song Yu used to have a very ordinary job, but he chose a major in college that he intended to pursue a career in politics.
Even if he didn't join the army, he could still enter the system. How could Su Huiling so casually say that she disliked him?
If she really shows that he doesn't want to be a soldier and can't let her be a general's wife, her in-laws will definitely punish her.
Especially her mother-in-law.
Because of Song Yu's health condition, her mother-in-law dotes on her like the apple of her eye. If she knew that she was neglecting Song Yu's health, she would definitely tear her apart.
