After observation, Yang Niannian noticed that the reason why Niu Aicao was so confident was because her eldest son Ma Yuejie was more capable.

Thinking of Ma Yuejie's official tone, she asked curiously, "What does Ma Yuejie do for a living?"

Lu Shishen shook his head, "I have been in the army all these years and have never asked about their affairs."

Lu Qingyuan interjected, "Yue Jie took over his grandfather's job as a teacher at the school. He became the vice principal just last year. Their village school now has several hundred students."

Yang Niannian complained, "He is a vice principal of a rural primary school, not even a formal teacher, and yet he is so arrogant."

After they entered the yard, Lu Qingyuan and Lu Shishen became busy, while Yang Niannian went to the well to help Lu Ruoling wash the vegetables.

As soon as Aunt Lu entered the yard, she went to the kitchen to help, but Niu Aicao walked into the main room with a noble look on her face, and sat there like the Queen Mother, pretending to be Concubine Hua, and she didn't like anyone.

Knowing her temper, no one tried to provoke her, let alone mention Ma Xiuzhu and Ma Xiaojiu.

Ma Yuejie looked unhappy, "Mom, I think Shi Shen has become so arrogant since he became a soldier. He doesn't take my aunt and dad seriously at all."

Niu Aicao curled her lips and said, "If you don't want to invite them, then don't invite them. Anyway, it's their family's face that will be lost. If the villagers see that your father and your aunt don't show up, they will definitely laugh at him behind his back for not being a good person."

Ma Yuejie thought it made sense. He was the most vocal relative. Ever since Lu Shishen became the company commander, everyone would praise him from time to time, but he found it annoying.

I really didn't expect that Lu Shishen, who was like a fool when he was young, actually became a decent person after joining the army.

Later, he heard that Lu Shishen had engaged a college student. When he found out, he felt very unbalanced and thought that God was blind.

What’s dramatic is that Lu Shishen was deceived into marriage.

I wanted to see a joke today, but I didn’t expect Lu Shishen to marry a wife who is as beautiful as a fairy.

He really couldn't understand why Lu Shishen was so lucky?

Ma Hao, who was standing next to her, stared at Yang Niannian, who was squatting by the well washing vegetables, swallowed, touched his chin and smiled wickedly.

"Lu Shishen is so lucky. Even though his college-age wife ran away, he was able to find a beautiful wife. Look at her slim waist and hips. They are so attractive. When she glares at people, she can seduce them."

"Look at what you have accomplished." Knowing what kind of person his brother is, Ma Yuejie glared at him and said, "Don't do anything embarrassing. She is your cousin's wife."

Ma Yuejie is now the vice-president. When the principal retires in a few years, he will take over the position. He cannot allow any scandal to occur in his family.

Niu Aicao replied sarcastically, "If she were a decent person, no one would be able to do anything shameful if they provoke her."

Ma Hao looked ruffian, "Brother, you have a wife now, and a full man does not know the hunger of a hungry man. I am 25 years old and still single. How can I not have some thoughts when I see a beautiful woman? As the eldest brother, why don't you worry about your younger brother's marriage?"

Ma Yuejie glanced at his hippie-looking brother with disgust, and said nothing with a stern face.

My younger brother was born with a cross-eye. Not only is he not good-looking, but he is also idle and always causes trouble. He has a bad reputation in the village and usually doesn't respect his sister-in-law.

His wife complained to him several times, saying that his brother used dirty words in front of her. If it weren't for his parents' face, he would have beaten his brother long ago.

It was almost time for dinner when Aunt Lu and her family arrived late. As soon as they entered the main room, they started chatting with Niu and Cao, and had no intention of going to the kitchen to help.

Guan Ailian and a few others quickly prepared the meal, and Lu Zhiyuan arranged for everyone to sit down. The men sat in the yard, and the women ate in the main room.

Except for Ma Xiuzhu and his sister, everyone else was present.

We expected three tables of people, but only two showed up.

When the meal started and everyone was seated, Lu Guoqing suddenly stood up and said, "My uncle and his family haven't arrived yet. I'll go call them."

Lu Shishen stopped him, "No, sit down and eat."

Lu Guozhi also said, "Forget about coming. Our family doesn't flatter anyone." He and his third brother have never had a good relationship. When they were young, they fought many times for territory.

After his father and younger brother spoke, Lu Guozhi sat down and did not go. His uncle's family did not come, probably because everyone in the courtyard was serving in the army.

I may not be able to invite him if I go, and my uncle's family will definitely not be in a good mood.

The Lu family’s meal was even more sumptuous than the New Year’s Eve dinner. Niu Aicao, who had originally planned to come to watch the fun, ate in an extremely ugly manner, as soon as he sat down at the table, as if he hadn’t eaten a full meal in eight hundred years.

Without the presence of siblings Lu Guojian and Ma Xiuzhu, the dining atmosphere became more harmonious.

Lu Shishen was a company commander in the army, a high-ranking official. Among his relatives, he was considered the most capable one.

Ma Xiuzhu is just an elderly housewife. There is no need to offend Lu Shishen because of Ma Xiuzhu.

Besides, they are mother and son. No matter how much they quarrel now, they are still a family when things get better. There is really no need to meddle in other people's family affairs.

Uncle Ma's behavior of beating Lu Qingyuan was stupid. To put it bluntly, he was just showing off by relying on his son's ability.

Everyone knows that Uncle Ma has been praising Ma Yuejie behind his back, saying that he is more capable than Lu Shishen, saying that his son is an educated person, unlike Lu Shishen who is a company commander in the army and might be demobilized someday.

Everyone knows what's going on in their minds, but they just don't express it openly.

Ma Yuejie drank some wine and felt increasingly uncomfortable when he saw that no one mentioned his father at all.

The purpose of coming here today was to see Lu Shishen make a fool of himself. Now that he failed to see the joke, it would have been fine. But Lu Shishen didn't even bother to invite his father to come. Isn't this deliberately embarrassing him and looking down on his family?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Ma Yuejie, under the influence of alcohol, started to make trouble in a strange tone.

"Shi Shen, I heard that your wife is doing business in Haicheng. You are a company commander in the army. Aren't you afraid that she will do these speculative things and affect your future?"

Ma Hao was also drunk and immediately echoed his brother's words sarcastically.

"That's right, Shi Shen, you should take care of your wife and stop her from setting up a stall outside. It will be embarrassing if the news gets out. My eldest brother is the vice principal of the school. If others knew that your wife was setting up a stall outside to do business, the Ma family would lose all face. It doesn't matter if it affects your future, because your company commander is not a high-ranking official anyway, but it can't affect my eldest brother."

Lu Shishen doesn't drink, so when everyone was drinking and talking, he remained silent. When he heard what the two Ma brothers said, his face darkened and he frowned.

"Nian Nian is my wife, how can I embarrass the Ma family?"

"That's what you say, but once this gets out, people will say that my eldest brother and cousin's wife are doing business out there in public, right?" Ma Hao argued.

Ma Yuejie nodded and spoke in a teaching tone.

"You get a military allowance, and you can support your family. Why ask her to do something that would lower her status? Although the country now supports self-employed individuals, in a small place like ours, people look down on such speculation."

The two brothers usually don't get along with each other, but now they are united against the outside world.

Lu Shishen glanced at the two Ma brothers coldly, "If anyone feels ashamed, put down your chopsticks and leave now."
