Shen Limei saw Zhan Xinlan from afar and hurried forward.
"Ms. Zhan Xinlan, what are you doing?"
Zhan Xinlan glanced at her and said, "I'm talking to my daughter. Even if you are Liang Su's mother-in-law, you have no right to interfere."
Shen Limei's smile remained unchanged, and she stood in front of Liang Su in a protective posture.
"Liang Su doesn't recognize you, so you're not her mother, but I, Shen Limei, must be her mother-in-law. You really have two faces. Seeing that there are no outsiders around, you put away your face that shows weakness. If you go to Hong Kong City to be an actor like this, I think you can have some development."
Zhan Xinlan ignored her sarcasm. After going through so much, she had already developed a thick skin.
"This is a matter between Liang Su and me, you don't need to meddle in it."
Shen Limei laughed and said, "How can I be called nosy when I take care of my daughter-in-law's affairs? But you don't seem to have any right to stand here. Xiao Su, let's go home."
Liang Su was originally still wondering who that familiar man was, but now she thought, no matter who he was, what did he have to do with her.
Zhan Xinlan looked at their backs coldly, and when she thought of the past, a venomous coldness appeared on her face.
The next day was New Year's Eve. Liang Su and Shen Limei were busy cleaning the house, inside and out.
Shen Congji hung up the newly bought lanterns and red couplets. The addition of red added a bit of joy.
"The lanterns I picked are just beautiful." Liang Su raised the corners of his lips.
Shen Congji came down from the ladder and stood beside her. They looked at the hanging lanterns together and nodded.
“It’s really beautiful.”
He tilted his head and kissed Liang Su on the cheek.
The speed was so fast that Liang Su had no time to dodge.
She glared and looked around to see if there was anyone around.
"What if someone sees us?" It's so embarrassing.
Shen Congji raised his eyebrows and began to touch the marriage certificate in his pocket again.
Liang Su slapped his hand in annoyance, "Okay, I know you have a certificate."
Shen Congji smiled, his handsome face full of doting.
"Okay, I'll try to hold back next time."
He put his arm around Liang Su and led her into the house.
"We still have to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner. I'll go help Mom." Liang Su pushed him away.
Shen Congji followed closely, "I'll help too."
He's not that good at cooking, but he can still help light the fire.
If there's anything that needs to be fried, he can get it because he has thick skin and isn't afraid of burns.
As a result, the two of them started fighting and finally both of them were kicked out by Shen Limei.
"Go put out the fruits and biscuits and stay out of the way."
Liang Su pouted, "It's all your fault."
She had no choice but to take out the fruit plate and arrange the dishes.
The apples were bought in the department store. Because they were expensive, only a few were bought. Liang Su put out two.
The rest were biscuits, candies, melon seeds, and some red dates.
They are all wrapped in red, which contrasts with the lanterns and couplets outside, making them very festive.
It was almost time, and Shen Congji urged her to take a shower.
Taking a bath and changing into new clothes before New Year's Eve was a common custom in Cheng County during the New Year celebrations.
No matter how old she is, Liang Su always looks forward to wearing new clothes.
I just want to dress myself up beautifully to welcome the new year.
She was the first person in the family to take a bath. She changed into the new clothes she bought before the New Year and put on the pearl jewelry bought by Shen Congji. She had a shy smile on her lips, and she looked charming and lovely.
"Does it look good?"
Although she bought the jewelry a long time ago, this was the first time she wore it out.
Shen Congji couldn't help but kiss her again, then picked her up and spun her around.
“It’s very beautiful!”
Liang Su's upper body is a cashmere base shirt, which is very close-fitting and outlines her charming figure.
The lower body is a tweed skirt, elastic leggings, and newly bought leather shoes.
The long woolen coat on the outside is camel-colored, making her look youthful, beautiful and gentle.
"You need to change into new clothes today too. Go take a shower. I want to see you get dressed!"
Shen Congji is rather casual. In the past, he did not pay much attention to these things during the Chinese New Year, thinking that they were just a formality.
Now that Liang Su brought it up, he naturally wouldn't refuse.
After taking off his military uniform and putting on the sweater Liang Su bought for him, he looked several years younger, sunny and handsome.
Liang Su pulled him to the kitchen and said, "Mom, does it look good?"
Shen Limei looked at him and smiled, her eyes wrinkled.
"It's very beautiful."
"Mom, you go take a shower too. Aji and I will watch over you here."
Shen Limei said: "These are new clothes of yours, you can't get them dirty."
Liang Su pushed her out and said, "I know how to wear an apron. If it gets dirty, I can wash it. Our whole family will wear new clothes for the New Year."
Shen Limei had no choice but to go out and take a shower first.
After taking a shower and changing into new clothes, I saw Zhan Xinlan outside the yard.
Shen Limei adjusted her clothes, looking radiant, in stark contrast to Zhan Xinlan.
A look of jealousy appeared in Zhan Xinlan's eyes. She had raised Liang Su for so many years, but she had never enjoyed any benefits from her.
Shen Limei is lucky enough to be able to wear such beautiful clothes.
She had just arrived at the base and had no money. Neither Rao Yu nor Liang Qin asked to buy her anything, and she was too embarrassed to mention it.
During the Chinese New Year, I still wear last year's clothes.
"What are you doing here again?" Shen Limei asked.
Didn’t you have enough acting yesterday?
Zhan Xinlan forced a smile and said, "I came to apologize to Liang Su. As long as she doesn't forgive me, I will come and apologize to her every day until she forgives me."
Shen Limei rolled her eyes at her and said, "Okay, then just stand here."
Liang Su heard the voice and came out, his smile froze on the corner of his lips.
"Mom, the braised pork belly is almost done."
Shen Limei nodded, "She said she came to you to apologize. Since she is willing to apologize, then you should accept it. She owes you anyway. But no one in this world stipulates that you must forgive someone after an apology. If she wants to stand, let her stand. Don't be too considerate of her."
If she feels cold or hungry, she will walk by herself.
Liang Su smiled and nodded, "I know, Mom, go in and take a look."
But she went into the house in a blink of an eye and never came out again.
As Shen Limei said, if she wants to stand, then let her stand.
Zhan Xinlan's patience gradually ran out during the waiting time. She could smell bursts of fragrance outside, which made her hungry.
Soon, Wu Na's voice was heard again: "Sister Zhan, why are you standing here? It's New Year's Eve, aren't you at home for the New Year's Eve dinner?"
Zhan Xinlan's face turned pale. "I came here to apologize to Liang Su."
"Why are you apologizing again? She ignores you. I think you should just ignore her and go back to celebrate the New Year. Have you taken a shower? The New Year only comes once a year, so at least change into new clothes and be happy." Wu Na deliberately adjusted her collar to show her new clothes to her.
Zhan Xinlan: “…” You are bringing up something that is not related to the topic.
