Chapter 100 The New Wife Arrives and Starts a New Life
"I can't cook." Gao Meifeng was determined not to be manipulated by them. She laughed infuriatingly, "Yuxin and I eat in the company cafeteria. We don't cook at home on weekdays either."
Humph, there's no way you can control her.
She just knows how to do it, but she won't do it.
When she first went to Xue Yuxin's grandmother's house, she cooked, made fire, and did everything. In the end, all these things were hers.
The time that left the deepest impression on her was also during the Chinese New Year. She had to work overtime at the company for some urgent matter. When she came back, the whole family was happily watching TV and waiting for her to come back to cook.
She was so angry that time that she even got scared when she thought about it.
Her mother-in-law was so frightened that she apologized to her and never waited for her to come home to cook for her again.
With this previous experience, she will not let herself make the same mistake again.
"If you don't know how, then don't. I'll do it." Su Houli rolled up his sleeves and went forward to make dumplings. He said considerately to Gao Meifeng, "You and Yuxin can watch TV. We'll be done soon."
Xu Yuxiang and Feng Yuefen almost dropped their jaws in shock when they heard this.
A remarried woman is treated as a hot commodity...
"Thank you for your hard work." Gao Meifeng smiled, leaned on the quilt, and watched TV with peace of mind. With such family conditions, he still wanted to marry an unmarried girl. Bah, she was willing to marry Su Houli, and Su Houli must be very lucky.
Xu Yuxiang was furious.
How could a wife be like this, doing nothing but waiting to eat? Feng Yuefen saw this and gloated, "Mom, you should take a break too. Let his uncle roll the dough, and Cuicui and I will wrap it. We'll eat it when we're done."
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean by that?" Women understand women best. When Gao Meifeng heard Feng Yuefen say these words, she knew she was trying to sow discord, so she simply asked her, "If I don't come, you won't make dumplings?"
"If you don't come, we won't get enough." Feng Yuefen showed no sign of weakness. It was their first time fighting, so who was afraid of who?
"Houli, since your family hasn't prepared dumplings for Yuxin and me, let's go back!" Gao Meifeng's face darkened and she stood up to leave. Xue Yuxin immediately responded and got off the kang to get her shoes. She had long since stayed here. Su Houli stopped Gao Meifeng and said, "Sister-in-law, you're joking. How could there be no dumplings for you? It's New Year's Day. Why are you leaving? Hurry and sit down. It's just making dumplings. It will be done in no time."
"Alright, alright, I'll take care of it!" Xu Yuxiang didn't want to make a scene and be laughed at, so she said to Gao Meifeng with a smile, "Your sister-in-law is just like you, both are straightforward people. If she doesn't talk, laugh, or have fun, don't take it to heart."
Although this woman can't cook, she also has a bad temper.
But they are contract workers in the city after all, and they can work and earn money. For this reason, they have to endure it and wait until they get married.
"Really? I thought my sister-in-law disliked me for not being able to work!" Gao Meifeng didn't want to go back at this time. Since Xu Yuxiang gave her a way out, she sat back tactfully and continued watching TV. Xue Yuxin snuggled up to her and didn't say a word for a long time. She secretly made up her mind that she would never come again.
"No, no, it's enough if one of us knows how to make them." Su Houli smiled and poured water for Gao Meifeng and took out some melon seeds. Su Cuicui looked at Su Houli waiting at her beck and call and was very puzzled. Second Mother was hardworking and capable, but Second Uncle had never treated her like this. Why was he so considerate to Gao Meifeng? She didn't understand.
Even on New Year's Eve, Su Houde was not idle. He still sat on the ground weaving fishing nets.
He didn't care at all about the verbal disputes between women. He felt that it was none of his business.
Only Su Jinbao was truly happy. He had a handful of firecrackers in his pocket and was playing snowball fights and setting off firecrackers with his friends on the street. The alleys were full of people visiting each other, and the street lights that were usually not turned on were also lit. Wutong Village was a sea of joy on New Year's Eve.
Su Jiaojiao, Chen Guilan and Qin Shuang finished making dumplings before eight o'clock.
There was no room for a shower at home, so the three of them took turns washing their hair, changing their clothes, and then sitting comfortably on the warm kang to watch the Spring Festival Gala. Qin Shuang smiled and took out a red envelope for Su Jiaojiao: "Come here, Jiaojiao, it's New Year's Day, and Auntie will give you a red envelope."
"Oh, she's already so old, and you're still giving her a red envelope." Chen Guilan declined, "No, really."
"You have to take Auntie's red envelope." Aunt Qin stuffed it into Su Jiaojiao's hand and said with a smile, "After the New Year, your mother and I will work hard, and you will go to school well. Then we can live in peace and make a fortune."
"Thank you, Aunt Qin." Su Jiaojiao happily took it. "I also wish Aunt Qin great fortune and further success in the coming year."
"Okay, okay, let's make a fortune together!" Qin Shuang was in a good mood. She took her bag, took out a peace locket necklace, and said to Chen Guilan with a smile, "Sister Guilan, these are two necklaces given to me by a customer. Let's each get one. I hope our order will be shipped smoothly and we can make a fortune."
Dark green braided rope and a creamy peace locket.
Su Jiaojiao recognized that this peace locket was made of Hetian jade, which was white and smooth, and worth hundreds of dollars.
"Oh, how can I accept such an expensive thing?" Chen Guilan was very embarrassed and insisted on not accepting it. "You said you came to celebrate the New Year, and you gave me a red envelope and a necklace. It's too polite."
"Sister Guilan, I told you it was a gift from a client. I really didn't spend any money." Qin Shuang insisted on putting it on Chen Guilan's neck. "If you don't want it, I'll be embarrassed to come here next time. Xiuming is not here this year. If it weren't for you, I would be spending the New Year alone in the dormitory. It would be lonely and boring. I'm very happy to spend the New Year here."
Then he took out the one around her neck and showed it to her, "Look, except for the different color of the braided rope, isn't this jade the same?"
While parents are alive, brothers and sisters are siblings.
When parents are gone, brothers and sisters become relatives who can be close or distant.
So far, no one has called her to ask where she spent the New Year, and of course she didn't call them either. In their eyes, she was extremely rebellious for having a child out of wedlock, and they even thought that her parents were angered to death by her.
Because of this, she had a very bad relationship with her brothers and sisters.
So, she has no maternal family.
"Okay, I'll keep it." After hearing her say that, Chen Guilan put it on and looked in the mirror. "It looks great."
As he was speaking, the cell phone in Qin Shuang's bag rang.
Qin Shuang took it and answered it. It was Qin Xiuming calling: "Mom, Happy New Year."
"Okay." Qin Shuang asked him gently, "Have you eaten?"
"I just came back from the reunion dinner at the hotel and called you." Qin Xiuming was in a good mood and spoke cheerfully. "I live with my grandparents. They treat me very well. My father comes to see me every day. You don't have to worry about me."
"That's good." Qin Shuang instructed, "You must listen to your grandparents and don't let them worry about you."
"Okay, I understand." Qin Xiuming agreed and asked, "Mom, are you spending the New Year at Su Jiaojiao's house?"
"That's right." Qin Shuang glanced at Su Jiaojiao, who was watching TV without blinking. Qin Shuang lowered his voice and said, "You should have a good rest. The signal here is not good. Let's hang up!"
"Okay, say hello to Aunt Chen and Jiao Jiao for me. I'll be back after the 15th."
"Got it." Qin Shuang hung up the phone. Just as he was about to say something, the phone rang again. It was an unfamiliar number, but Qin Shuang still answered it: "Hello?"
"Shuang'er, it's me..." Lu Jiaping's slightly drunk voice came.
