Chapter 11: Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law United Front

11 Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law united front

When Shen Yiyi got up, Qin's mother was chatting with Aunt Du in the shade at the door.

At first glance, they looked like two old intelligence ladies, the kind that would slap a dog if it walked past them.

But it is not.

The two were talking about business.

The main one is Auntie Du’s youngest son Du Jiang, who is also running this business as an individual business owner.

This is also the reason why Qin's mother does not object to what Shen Yiyi does, because Aunt Du's youngest son used to be idle and had no proper job, but now that he has become a self-employed person, he has become much more well-behaved.

Last time I bought a lot of canned yellow peaches, and when I saw her I gave her one, saying that she ate a lot of sweet potato chips she gave her when she was a child.

I've also started dating recently.

"I heard from Lao Wu that it's pretty good, but he never told me the details. Why are you suddenly asking this?" Aunt Du asked.

Mother Qin said, "Yiyi has nothing to do at home, so she thought of selling tea leaf eggs."

Aunt Du was surprised. "Yi Yi wants to sell tea eggs? Why would she need that? I agreed to let my fifth son run a business because he had nothing to do. Qin Lie sends his monthly allowance back to me. Why would Yi Yi do this?"

"I'm so free." Shen Yiyi said with a smile, and she took out two tea eggs.

One for Qin's mother and one for Aunt Du, "Mom, you and Aunt Du should try it."

"I'm so sorry." Aunt Du smiled immediately.

Mother Qin said, "Let's try it together."

Qin's mother peeled the egg shell, and when she took the tea leaf egg into her mouth, her eyes widened!

Aunt Du also ate her own egg: "Hey, why does it smell so good?"

"Really?" Shen Yiyi smiled.

"Really? If you don't believe me, ask your mom." Aunt Du nodded.

"It's delicious!" Qin's mother nodded, "Yiyi, go in and try some too!"

Shen Yiyi knew without even tasting it that this tea leaf egg had been made many times.

Although she is a top seller, doesn’t a top seller have any hobbies? Her hobby is making delicious food, which makes her feel very relaxed.

It is especially fulfilling to cook a delicious meal in my spare time and invite the whole family to eat together.

"Then can I make a success of selling my tea leaf eggs?" Shen Yiyi asked with a smile.

"If it maintains this level, I think the tea leaf eggs can be sold!" Aunt Du couldn't eat the tea leaf eggs for nothing, so she gave a very pertinent evaluation.

"I think we can give it a try!" Mother Qin nodded after having eaten the tea leaf eggs.

Of course, she didn't say anything in front of Aunt Du. After Aunt Du went back, Shen Yiyi whispered to Mother Qin: "Mom, will Dad agree to let me sell tea leaf eggs?"

In fact, she will do it even if they disagree, but it is better to get the unanimous consent of her parents-in-law.

"Your father is not an unenlightened person. He has always thought that the country's policy of encouraging self-employed individuals is a good one," said Qin's mother.

Shen Yiyi: "Although Dad said the policy is good, it doesn't mean that Dad will agree to let his family do it. When Dad comes back, Mom, please ask Dad for me, and then I will split the bill with you!"

If her mother-in-law couldn't convince her, she would talk to her father-in-law herself.

Mother Qin was very happy. "Don't worry, Mom will definitely stand on your side. Even if your dad disagrees, he will have to agree. But there is no need to split the bill. Mom has her own money."

Shen Yiyi hugged her arm and said, "I used to think I had a hard life because of my mother. Now I understand that there is always a rainbow after the storm. Fate closed one window for me and opened another. I don't have a biological mother to love me, but it's the same if I have a mother-in-law who loves me!"

Mother Qin softened her heart and said, "You are right to think so! If the third child dares to bully you in the future, just tell me and I will never forgive him!"

Shen Yiyi smiled and said, "Then we, the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, must stand on a united front and resolutely safeguard the rights of us women!"

Qin's mother was very happy.

When Qin's father came back, he saw that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were getting along very well, chatting and laughing while eating dinner.

"Dad, you're back." Shen Yiyi shouted when she saw him.

"Yeah." Father Qin nodded.

He is a quiet person, not talkative.

"Have you eaten?" Qin's mother asked him.

"have eaten."

Mother Qin called him over to eat tea leaf eggs, "Can you still eat more? Today we have tea leaf eggs, they taste really good to me, come over and try them?"

"Dad, come over and try it." Shen Yiyi also said.

Father Qin always ate until he was 70% full at the factory, so he could still eat a little more and came over to sit down.

Shen Yiyi gave him the egg

Father Qin took it, peeled it and tried to eat it.

Qin's mother asked him, "Is it delicious?"

"Not bad, where did you buy it from?" Qin's father asked.

"I didn't buy it. Yi Yi made it herself. I didn't know she could make tea leaf eggs." Qin's mother said with a smile.

"Make more in the future so that you can have it with porridge for breakfast." Qin's father gave a very good evaluation.

Mother Qin immediately looked at Shen Yiyi, and Shen Yiyi smiled, "Okay, leave it to me, I will make delicious breakfast for you in different ways."

Qin's father didn't say anything in person, but when he returned home at night, he asked Qin's mother.

"What nonsense are you two, the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, telling each other?" He was not stupid. It was obvious that the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law were hiding something from him.

Mother Qin smiled and told her about how all the money had been returned to the Shen family.

"Yi Yi only kept a little, and gave the remaining 1,100 yuan to me, asking me to help save it." Qin's mother said.

Father Qin said, "Then you can help save it and return it to them when they need it."

My daughter-in-law can use it as she pleases, but not Mr. Shen’s family.

Let’s keep things separate.

"By the way, Yi Yi also wants to sell tea leaf eggs." said Qin's mother.

Father Qin was surprised: "The third daughter-in-law is soft-skinned and thin-skinned. Can she do this?"

"That was before. Now Yi Yi is no longer a soft-hearted person and she is not thin-skinned anymore. Otherwise, how could she get the more than one thousand yuan back from the Shen family?" said Qin's mother.

“It’s different.”

"What's the difference? If Yi Yi says it's okay, it must be okay." Qin's mother has great confidence in her daughter-in-law.

"Then there's no need to do this, with over a thousand yuan in savings."

"It's mainly because she has nothing else to do." Mother Qin understood her daughter-in-law very well: "Now that she has cut off ties with the old Shen family and has no children to take care of, she will just sit there day in a daze? She will become stupid if she stays there. If she wants to sell tea leaf eggs, let her try!"

When my daughter-in-law talked about selling tea leaf eggs, her eyes lit up.

"Will the third brother agree? He is a military officer after all. Would he be able to save face if his comrades knew that his wife sells tea eggs?" said Qin's father.

"What do you mean by this? You were just kidding me when you said that the policy for self-employed individuals is good. Do you also look down on self-employed individuals?" Mother Qin couldn't help but ask.

Father Qin: "When did I look down on self-employed people? I just speak the truth. I will call the third son tomorrow to ask him. If he agrees to let his wife marry a tea egg seller, then I have no objection."

Mother Qin was satisfied: "Okay, I haven't talked to the third child on the phone for a long time anyway, let Yi Yi call him tomorrow."

Father Qin didn't say much, he felt that the third son would not agree.
