Whenever Lu Li felt wronged, she wanted to run out to find her close sister Ye Yao to chat and relieve her emotions. But when she thought that it was almost time for dinner, she gave up and decided to go back to her room and lie down.
If she wasn't there at mealtime, her mother would definitely give all the meat to that woman. She hadn't eaten meat for a long time.
What a nice smell! What kind of stir-fried meat is this? Why does it smell so good? Should I go back to the kitchen and check?
As soon as the door opened, Lu Guofeng and Lu Ting came over. "Lu Li, your mother is cooking. Why are you lazing around in your room? Why don't you go to the kitchen and get the dishes?"
Lu Li was speechless and felt even more wronged. "Dad, it's okay for my mom to bully me, but why are you bullying me too? Am I still your daughter?"
"If you weren't my daughter, I would have kicked you out long ago. You follow that Ye guy around all day long. You can't dance well, and you can't sing well.
You come home and can't even clean up, and you ask your mother to wash your clothes. What's the use of you? Humph!" Lu Fengnian walked towards the kitchen in the backyard with a cold face.
Lu Ting frowned, but said nothing. He was about to go to the kitchen to see what delicious food was available today when Lu Li grabbed his arm and said, "Brother, let's chat for a while."
She was really too wronged, and she would go crazy if she didn't tell him.
"Why are you crying?"
"Brother, when will you divorce that woman?"
Lu Ting's eyes turned cold, "What do you mean?"
"Sister Yaoyao is already 24 years old, one year older than you. Because of you, she hasn't married yet. She has been waiting for you."
"Shut up! Stop talking!"
At this time, Su Yan came out with a plate of cold-mixed Platycodon grandiflorum and happened to overhear the conversation between the two siblings.
Interesting, it turns out that Ye Yao is one year older than Lu Gouzi?
Lu Li said that Ye Yao's father was a worker and their hometown was in the countryside. She followed her father to attend junior high school in the city and then returned to the countryside.
So what was she doing all those years?
Looking at Su Yan standing there like a wooden stake and eavesdropping, Lu Li started to get angry again.
"you…!"
"Hey, I'm just passing by. Just pretend you didn't see me."
Su Yan's eyes turned, and she smiled slyly, "By the way, you said that Ye Yao is 24 years old and still unmarried. That's impossible, right? Do you think she was married before and then abandoned her husband and children and ran away?"
Not to mention that the original owner got married at the age of eighteen. In this era, many people in rural areas got engaged at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and moved in with the man's family after receiving the betrothal gift.
It is generally impossible for a woman to be unmarried at the age of 24 in rural areas, and even if it happens, it is rare.
Lu Ting had a cold face and didn't say a word or refute. When Lu Li heard Su Yan slandering her goddess, she immediately quit.
"How is it impossible? If Sister Yaoyao is married, how come I don't know? I'm almost nineteen, and I'm not married either, am I?"
Su Yan wanted to say something like, "Yeah, you're already old, why haven't you gotten married yet? Of course it's because no one wants you!"
Thinking that her parents-in-law were in the backyard and would be disturbed if they heard it, Su Yan finally held back and didn't say anything.
She looked at Lu Li with a half-smile, "Yeah, you're already nineteen, why don't you find someone to marry? Are you reluctant to leave your parents, or are you reluctant to leave me, your sister-in-law?"
"Humph! Do you think I'm like you, chasing after my brother all day long?"
Finding a partner is not that easy. She doesn’t like the one her parents introduced to her, and the one she likes can’t see her. It’s better not to get married.
Su Yan was not angry at Lu Li's ridicule. She looked at Lu Ting with a raised eyebrow. This bastard had tortured her like he was risking his life last night, and now he was pretending to be cool and silent.
"Pfft! You think your brother is a flower? You want to pick him just because he's a human? Humph!"
After saying this, Su Yan snorted coldly, turned her head away, and walked towards the main room with the dishes without looking back.
Watching the little woman walk past him with her head held high and a proud expression, Lu Ting took a deep breath. "Don't be annoyed, don't be annoyed! This is my woman."
Lu Fengnian helped his wife bring the dishes to the table, and the two brothers Lu Chen and Lu Yu walked into the house at the same time.
As soon as he entered the house, Lu Yu threw his schoolbag on the wooden sofa, strode to the dining table, and asked, "Dad, what delicious food did Mom make today? It smells so good."
"Stir-fried pork with wild garlic, stir-fried lilies, scrambled eggs with chili peppers, and your sister-in-law's platycodon salad."
Lu Chen and Lu Yu looked at each other. What a coincidence! They came back from vacation today to get food, but they didn’t expect that there would be meat to eat today. Was this prepared by their mother for them or for their eldest brother?
After Su Yan had set the table, Hua Min also cleaned up the stove and walked out of the kitchen.
"Eat, eat, why are you all standing here?"
When Su Yan saw her mother-in-law sitting down, she hurriedly sat next to her.
The Lu family used an octagonal table. Lu Fengnian sat at the top, with Lu Ting sitting next to him. Lu Yu and Lu Chen sat at the bottom, while Lu Li, pouting, sat across from Su Yan and Hua Min.
Lu Fengnian looked at the red cold-mixed Platycodon grandiflorum and his appetite was aroused. He reached out and picked up some with chopsticks.
"Mm, delicious! Crisp and refreshing, with just the right amount of sweetness and spiciness. This platycodon salad tastes great."
Hua Min nodded in agreement and picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and started eating with a crunch.
"Yeah, I didn't expect its roots to look like ginseng, but the taste is so different. Yanyan, you've worked hard today, digging up so many delicious wild vegetables."
The prickly and immature girl Lu Li couldn't stand seeing her mother and sister-in-law acting out the scene of loving mother and filial daughter, and she started to mock Su Yan again.
"Tsk! She can also dig wild vegetables? Could she have bought them from someone?"
Su Yan felt too embarrassed to get angry with her parents-in-law around. In order to maintain the original owner's image as a well-behaved and sensible person, she did not refute the last sentence.
Hua Min felt a little sorry for her daughter-in-law. She worked so hard to dig wild vegetables, but then others said that her daughter was an ungrateful little girl.
