Wang Xiaolin said, "The empty houses at the educated youth site are reserved for the new educated youth. Of course, Lao Xiao didn't agree."
Wang Xiaolan asked, "What about them?"
Wang Xiaolin said: "She and her mother had no choice but to carry their luggage and leave Xiangshui Village. Maybe she went back to her parents' home."
Wang Xiaolan sneered after hearing this, "It's their own fault. I didn't intend to chase them away for Xia Wei's sake, but she went too far today and actually came to occupy my house. I'm so angry!"
Yu Wenlin, who was sitting on the side, stared at Wang Xiaolan and said slowly: "Nannan, is that woman the so-called mother-in-law you mentioned?
Wang Xiaolan nodded and said, "Yes, it's her."
Yu Wenlin clenched her teeth tightly, her lips trembling slightly as she squeezed out a few words: "It's her! Nannan, you did the right thing! Mom fully supports you. If she dares to stand here now, I will definitely beat her up. Only then can I vent my anger!"
Wang Xiaolin said, "Auntie, don't worry! She won't dare come here again. Her reputation here has long been ruined. No family dares to take her in. Now even her old lover can't afford to take her in. It's too late to hide."
After hearing this, Yu Wenlin's face showed a relieved expression. He nodded and kept muttering, "That's good, that's good! God is really merciful! As the saying goes, evildoers will be punished by evildoers. People like this who have done so many evil things should receive the punishment and retribution they deserve."
Wang Xiaolin said, "Aunt, this person is notorious. Everyone in this area knows her. Even if she were to return to her parents' home, they would definitely not accept her. She and her sister-in-law are sworn enemies. It won't be long before even her own family will kick her out. Wherever she stays, there will be no peace."
While they were chatting, Grandma Zhao Er brought the steaming hot food to the table.
When Wang Xiaolin saw the food on the table, he slapped his forehead and said, "No, I have to go back. The children and Lao Xiao are waiting for me to go back and cook!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she lifted her foot without hesitation and walked straight towards the gate. At this time, Wang Xiaolan didn't even have the chance to ask her to stay for dinner. In the blink of an eye, she grabbed the door handle and had one foot over the threshold.
"Sister-in-law, wait a moment."
Wang Xiaolin stopped, turned around, looked at Wang Xiaolan, and said, "Is there anything wrong, sister-in-law?"
Wang Xiaolan took out several bags of exquisite snacks from her luggage bag and ran over to hand them to Wang Xiaolin, her eyes full of earnestness.
“This is for the kids.”
When Wang Xiaolin saw such an expensive gift, he waved his hands and said, "I can't accept it. You should leave it to Dabao and Xiaobao! My children are already grown up."
As she spoke, she tried to refuse, saying that she couldn't accept these things under any circumstances. The two of them remained deadlocked, and the atmosphere became a little awkward for a while.
At this moment, Yu Wenlin, who had been silent the entire time, finally spoke up, "Xiao Lin, Xiao Lan also has good intentions. Consider this as a token of her appreciation for you. If you don't accept it, wouldn't that be a betrayal of her kindness?"
Hearing this, Wang Xiaolin hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, took the packages, thanked Wang Xiaolan, and walked out.
…
After Wang Xiaolin left, the family sat around the table and prepared to eat.
Mr. Zhao picked up some food from his bowl and was about to leave, but Wang Xiaolan grabbed him and said, "Second Master, please sit down and eat with us!"
Master Zhao Er said embarrassedly, "You have something to say, and it's not appropriate for me to be in between you. I'd better go to the kitchen to eat! I won't disturb you talking." As he said that, he picked up the bowl and was about to leave.
Yu Wenlin, while picking up some food and feeding Xiaobao, said softly, "Brother, don't be like this. We are all family. There is no need to be so distant. You help my daughter take care of the house and keep it so nice. I feel bad that you don't even sit at the table for dinner."
After hearing her words, the Second Master couldn't help but hesitate. You know, he has always been a man of few words and has a reserved personality.
At this moment, the room was full of women and children, and he was alone among them. This feeling made him feel extremely awkward. In contrast, he would rather stay alone and enjoy the freedom of being unrestrained.
However, facing this situation, the Second Master was somewhat hesitant and didn't know what to do...
At this moment, Second Grandma Zhao said with a smile on her face: "Old man, don't stand there anymore, come and sit down and eat together! These people are all family members, there is no need to be so particular. Especially Xiaolan's mother, this is the first time she comes to our house today, it would be very rude if you don't accompany her at the table!" After that, Second Grandma Zhao waved to Grandpa Zhao, motioning him to come and sit down quickly.
With rice in his mouth, Dabao slid down from the stool and came to Mr. Zhao Er with a skipping sound. He raised his head, held Mr. Zhao Er tightly with his chubby little hands, and said in a baby voice, "Grandpa, don't go! Come and have dinner with us. Dabao is reluctant to let Grandpa go. I want to go herd cattle with Grandpa later."
Mr. Zhao, upon hearing Dabao speak like this, said, "Okay, okay..."
Dabao, skipping and jumping, led Master Zhao towards the dining table, muttering, "I want to ride the bull."
Mr. Zhao's face was filled with joy, and he readily agreed: "Okay, okay, then you can ride the big yellow ox, and after we finish eating, we will go together."
Dabao said happily, "Okay, okay. Great Grandpa, let's go eat!"
Just like that, Master Zhao Er was dragged by Dabao and happily returned to the dinner table.
After dinner, Wang Xiaolan asked Yu Wenlin to take Xiaobao upstairs to rest, while Dabao followed Mr. Zhao to the cattle breeding base in the village.
Wang Xiaolan was just about to clean up the kitchen with Grandma Zhao Er when she suddenly heard a knock on the door. She hurried to open the door and saw that it was Wang Xiaolin!
"Sister-in-law, you came at the right time. I wanted to go to your house to find you."
Wang Xiaolin said, "Sister-in-law, didn't you say you were going to hold a meeting this afternoon? Several middle-level leaders from the factory are here, and they're waiting for you to preside over the meeting."
Wang Xiaolan returned to the house, said hello to Yu Wenlin and Grandma Zhao Er, and then went to the pharmaceutical factory with Wang Xiaolin.
The conference room was already filled with mid-level leaders from various departments. Everyone was discussing animatedly, their voices rising and falling, their faces brimming with excitement.
At this moment, the door of the conference room was gently pushed open...
