Chapter 34: She's Amazing (Page 1/2)
Huo Qingci and Lin Man stayed at the Xiao family for an hour and then went back. As soon as they left, the Xiao family was in an uproar.
Yang Liu looked at the two wool sweaters in the bag and praised, "Qingci's wife is so considerate. She even bought winter clothes for us two old people."
Tian Xin said, "Isn't Lin Man unemployed? Where did she get the money to buy such a nice sweater? It must have been bought by your grandson."
Yang Liu said unhappily, "Qingci said that it was Manman who chose it, and she paid for it. All the things she bought for you were bought with Manman's money.
Don’t you think the towels and fabrics I gave you are really beautiful? Girls are more attentive and have better aesthetic taste than gay men.”
Chen Sufen asked, "Where's ours? Let me see."
"Your daughter took it back to her room."
When Chen Sufen found out, she just smiled and didn't rush back to her room. There were two baskets of fruit on the table that hadn't been touched.
Tian Xin and Tang Yurou divided the two large towels and two pieces of cloth in front of their mother-in-law.
Deng Qiuling looked at the two of them unhappily, "I'm the one spending the money, but you two are the ones receiving the gifts."
Tian Xin said flatteringly, "Mom, we'll save the candies and biscuits for you. This cloth is so brightly colored, it's perfect for making a little skirt for my Nini. This towel is extra big, give it to Nini to cover herself with in the summer."
Tang Yurou said, "Mom, let me use the fabric to make you a shirt. I'm going to use this big towel as a swaddle for the baby. What do you think?"
Deng Qiuling sneered. If she dared to take the cloth, her daughter-in-law would definitely cry to her son and complain that she, as a mother-in-law, was biased.
And the candies and biscuits were said to be left for her. She has a child at home and a greedy pregnant woman. How could she, as a mother-in-law, have the nerve to eat the candies and biscuits?
What a miserable life! How could she have two daughters-in-law? If she only had one daughter-in-law, she wouldn't have been so lenient with her. But she had to treat both daughters-in-law equally.
If she controls both daughters-in-law at the same time, they will team up to deal with her.
Yang Liu smiled and looked at the way her eldest daughter-in-law was being bullied by her granddaughter-in-law. She probably understood her feelings now, right?
Look at her second daughter-in-law. She is not in a hurry to go back to her room. Isn’t she just staring at the pile of good things sent by her grandson?
Before the two elders could say anything, Xiao Feiyue reached out and grabbed the lychees from the basket.
"Grandma, let me peel the lychees for you. Lychees don't keep well in hot weather, so it's best to eat them within a few days."
Yang Liu said unhappily, "Don't you see that the lychees are very fresh, with branches and leaves still on them?"
When did such fresh lychees become available for sale in Beijing? Could it be that Mr. Huo’s comrades asked someone to transport them from the south?
After Tang Yurou and her sister-in-law divided the towels and cloths, she looked at the peeled lychees in her man's hand and swallowed.
Xiao Feiyue certainly didn't understand her. He smiled and said to Tang Yurou, "This is what I peeled for grandma. If you want to eat it, take it yourself."
Tang Yurou first looked at the two elders. Yang Liu felt that this grandson had bad intentions, so she smiled helplessly.
"Take it, Yandong Feiyue. Each of you will take two kilograms. The second family will suffer a little loss. Yunxia will also take two kilograms later. Your father and I will eat the remaining kilograms slowly."
This basket of lychees probably weighs about ten pounds. If they divide five or six pounds among them, the two old people will only have four pounds of lychees. They can eat them slowly, a few a day, for a few days without any problem.
Xiao Jingye didn't say anything, but took out a bayberry the size of a ping-pong ball from another fruit basket and stuffed it into his mouth. It was sweet. Is this a bayberry?
How come it’s so delicious? He loves eating bayberries. I’ll have to save some more for later.
"Old woman, these bayberries are not sour. Have one."
Xiao Jingye ate one himself and then took one from the fruit basket and handed it to Yang Liu.

Yang Liu took it with a smile. "Lychees are delicious and can cause internal heat, but these bayberries shouldn't. Hmm! Why are these bayberries so big and sweet? What kind of bayberry is this?"
"It should be from another province. It must be a tribute. I guess Mr. Huo is attending another meeting in Zhongnanhai?"
"Yun'er, Yi'er, both of you come and try some, these bayberries are delicious."
Xiao Yun said, "Mom, this fruit looks expensive, you guys should keep it for yourselves!"
Xiao Yi agreed and said, "Mom, this is a little gift from your nephew. You can keep it for yourself."
They are all in their forties and feel embarrassed to snatch the fruit from me.
"Just try it when I tell you to. Why are you being so long-winded?"
One loves his own children. The two sons in their family are both honest and kind. They always give everything to their wives and children. When the children grow up and get married, the eldest son gives to his granddaughter, while the second son gives in to his daughter-in-law and little daughter.
Throughout the year, except for some watermelon in the summer, they seldom eat fruit. Is it because they can’t afford it? Even if they can afford it, they have to let the people below them eat it.
They always say why grown men should eat fruits, they are not sick or in any pain.
Yang Liu stood up and took out two large enamel cups. She gave one of her sons a large cup of bayberries. "Take this and eat it!"
Tang Yurou puffed out her big belly and winked at Xiao Feiyue, who reached into the bayberry basket.
"Babyberries are usually sour. Let me try this one to see if it's really as sweet as grandma said."
He took a bayberry and took a bite. Oh my god, this bayberry was so delicious.
Before he finished eating one, he reached into the basket and grabbed a handful, stuffing them all into Tang Yurou's arms. "Rou Rou, these bayberries are really sweet. My son will definitely like them. Please help him taste them."
Yang Liu was used to her grandson's shamelessness, so she just gave him a look and said nothing. Seeing that her grandmother didn't say anything, Tian Xin cleverly grabbed several from the basket.
She stuffed two into her man Xiao Yandong's hands and said, "Dad, you try some too."
Then she gave another one to her daughter who was standing on the ground, "Bite it slowly, don't stuff it in your mouth all at once, and remember to spit out the core."
Seeing that her husband didn't take the enamel cup, Chen Sufen picked it up from the table herself and said, "Mom, let's go back to the room first."
"Let's go back. It's getting late and we need to rest. Yi'er, take the things on the table back to our room."
"Okay, Mom."
Xiao Jingye followed his wife back to her room. After eating the bayberries, Tang Yurou took the food her family had distributed and returned to her room. She lay on the bed and touched her belly.
"Feiyue, your cousin is so capable. That Lin Man is so lucky. If I had known that he liked young girls, I could have introduced my sister to him."
"What are you thinking? Do you think my handsome cousin, who has a great family background, would be willing to be my brother-in-law?"
"Are you dissatisfied with my family's financial situation?"
"I don't despise your family's poor conditions. Your sister dropped out of junior high school after only one semester, and you only finished the first grade.
My cousin is not only a soldier, he is also a highly educated person. How can his standards not be high? Besides, how can the looks and figure of my eldest cousin's wife be compared with those of ordinary women?
He felt that he was not worthy of his sister-in-law in terms of appearance and head, not to mention that they were even more mismatched in terms of knowledge.
Although Lin Man's family background is a bit difficult to describe, at least she was admitted to a prestigious university and studied there for two years. If it weren't for this major movement, she might have gone on to work in a government agency after graduation.
I heard that my eldest cousin's wife has been able to read since she was young and even skipped a grade or two. Don't be fooled by her young age, she is very capable.
