"Who can argue with that? You could say she's just lucky. She was born into a wealthy family and has never suffered much hardship in her life. She was about to be sent down to the countryside, but who would have thought she'd have such a good husband? We'll never have that kind of good fortune in our lives."
The more Zhao Lijuan thought about it, the more uneasy she felt.
"But is this really fair? It's one thing for others to have these things, but she's only been here for a short time, not even as long as we have. She hasn't made any outstanding contributions. If it weren't for her good in-laws, why would she have such good things to use?"
Li Chunyan glanced at the people around her and quickly grabbed her arm with one hand.
No matter what, with so many people watching, everyone says that with so many people around, there's bound to be gossip. If something gets leaked out, it could easily turn into a different story when it reaches Shu Ying's ears.
Besides, she has a temper that's not easy to mess with, so there's really no need to ruin things over something like this.
Zhao Lijuan rolled her eyes helplessly, feeling a surge of anger inside but not knowing where to vent it.
"I'm just standing up for the two of us. Tell me, what has Shu Ying done since she arrived? All she does every day is eat, drink, and fiddle with her useless flowers in the yard. Even if the men in our family aren't as good as Xie Zhiyan, what contribution has Shu Ying made? It's not enough that she's an eyesore here every day; she also enjoys the resources that belong to others."
The courtyard looked spotless, but everyone knew it was all thanks to Song Zhaodi.
Although Song Zhaodi's background is still unclear, it doesn't negate the fact that Shu Ying is incapable of doing anything.
Both of them fell silent.
The sisters-in-law who were given refrigerators were all very happy. Shu Ying and Song Zhaodi welcomed the people who helped install the refrigerators into the door. They had already found a place in the living room last night and reserved the space in advance.
Shu Ying washed some fruit and distributed it to the workers who helped with the installation: "It's so hot today, everyone has worked so hard. I just bought some fruit this morning, so have a piece of Song Zhaodi fruit to cool off. We've already marked out the socket location, and we'll move the refrigerator in and plug it in to test it out in a bit. If there are no problems, everyone can rest."
It is said that one is obligated to accept gifts and favors. Shu Ying was very hospitable, and it was a rare treat to be able to eat fruit at this time. The installers helped carry the refrigerator into the house and carefully cleaned it inside and out. After plugging it in and confirming that it worked, the installers left.
Song Zhaodi touched the refrigerator with obvious delight: "Yingying, do you think this thing is really that magical? It can cool down so quickly?"
Shu Ying smiled and said, "It's coated with something called fluorine, so it cools down relatively quickly. The top layer is for preservation, so you can put fruits or vegetables that we usually eat on top. The bottom layer is for freezing, so you can put meat that has a longer shelf life in it."
Shu Ying's family used to have a refrigerator, so she was very familiar with using these appliances.
She patiently taught Song Zhaodi how to adjust the refrigerator settings, telling her what items should be placed on top and what items should be placed on the bottom.
Song Zhaodi smiled broadly, her eyes almost turning into crescent moons.
"This is really a great thing. We can keep the milk that the two kids drink every day fresh in the refrigerator, and we won't have to worry about the eggs we buy going bad."
Having just learned how to use the refrigerator, Song Zhaodi couldn't wait to start planning how to make it available to the whole family.
Shu Ying pulled her hand and sat down: "Sister, actually these are not difficult at all. You will naturally know them after using them for a long time. Some things that can be used by simply plugging them in are just a few procedures. Eventually, you will be able to figure out the routine and become more and more proficient."
Song Zhaodi held Shu Ying's hand, raised her head, and looked up with a hint of expectation in her eyes.
"I know, but I'm so excited because there are only two days left until the test results come out. We have more and more stuff at home, and life is getting better and better, but the final result hasn't come out yet, and I just can't shake this feeling of unease. Yingying, what if there really is a mistake? I—"
Perhaps because there was a deeper sense of trepidation about returning home, Song Zhaodi couldn't sleep at night as the test results were about to be released.
She secretly hoped that she really was a daughter of the Xie family, but at the same time, she couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
If all of this is just her imagination, she really doesn't know how she will get along with Shu Ying's family in the future.
Shu Ying put her arm around her shoulder earnestly and said, "You have to believe in telepathy. Actually, there's no doubt about the essence of this matter anymore. It's just that you care too much. Of course, our whole family cares about your return. Even if we take a step back and the result is not what we wish for, it won't affect our relationship at all. In my heart, you are my sister."
With Shu Ying's words, Song Zhaodi finally felt relieved.
"Don't worry, sister. Actually, I'm even more eager than you to see you change your name back and return to the Xie family's household registration. That's when our family will truly be reunited. You'll just be yourself, and you can do whatever you want without having to think about anything else."
