outrageous!
Yan Lin is different.
He wasn't haunted by old-fashioned ideas; he truly loved Xu Manzhi to the core.
"Mom, I want to find a husband like my brother-in-law in the future, otherwise I won't get married and will stay with you and Dad for the rest of my life," Yan Xiaoyu muttered softly.
She's really broadened her horizons these days.
My eldest and second eldest sisters also married well.
My two brothers-in-law are high-ranking officials, but every time I visit their home, my sister is either serving the elderly people water to wash their feet or busy taking care of the children. As soon as my brothers-in-law come home, they expect to have hot meals ready for them, and they are even reluctant to go into the kitchen to get a bowl or chopsticks.
The idea of a man cooking was extremely rare in her eyes, shattering her worldview.
"Nonsense!"
Yang Fen scolded her daughter, telling Yan Xiaoyu to stop immediately and not to have such wild thoughts. She also educated Yan Xiaoyu on how to be a woman of the times, saying that in this day and age, being hardworking and taking care of housework is a woman's duty...
Yan Xiaoyu was unconvinced.
But Yang Fen said coldly, "Don't think that Manzhi has lost the Jiang family's backing. She still has her own strengths. Besides being beautiful and giving Yan Lin a lot of face, she also cured your brother Ling's illness. She's quite capable."
"Then isn't it enough that I can do it?"
"Shut up, you're no good!"
"Hmph, you all just think that Yan Lin's brother-in-law is ugly, which is why he dotes on Sister Manzhi like a precious jewel. But I don't think that's the case."
Yang Fen quickly covered her daughter's mouth and whispered a scolding to her not to talk nonsense.
But her eyes relaxed.
That's what people are saying outside, especially the women living inside and outside the family compound. Whenever they have free time, they gossip about everyday matters.
Yan Lin's attitude, in their eyes, was no different from the nourishment that cow dung provides to a flower; it was only a matter of time before its beauty faded and its love waned.
Xu Manzhi ate with great relish.
As she went to wash the lunchbox, Yan Lin entered the courtyard under the silvery moonlight. He saw her from afar, and her eyes and brows were filled with a dazzling light.
"You've arrived."
“I’ve come to see you and have a word with you…” He stepped forward and extended his wrist to her.
The girl, as nimble as a rabbit, hopped into his arms, looked up, and said with a smile, "Your cooking is absolutely amazing. From today onwards, my favorite food will be... dumplings."
