Looking at Lin Xiaoxiao's intimate interactions with Wen Mo and Wen Shiyu, He Meng thought to herself that Lin Xiaoxiao's family background was so good that she was actually the granddaughter of the Lu family. Back then, He Meng looked down on Lin Xiaoxiao for being unpresentable, but it made He Meng look like the clown.
Zhou Mingmei sat next to He Meng, her expression also filled with mixed emotions.
She thought that because of her good family background, even if Zhao Yu was not as good as Qin Yushen, she was still a cut above Lin Xiaoxiao.
But I only found out today that Lin Xiaoxiao's family background is no less impressive than hers.
Sisters-in-law are inherently adversaries.
They want to compare everything.
Comparing family backgrounds, husbands, children, and how much their in-laws value them...
"That child's nickname is An'an, right? He's been raised so well." He Meng recalled the appearance of her eldest grandson that she had just seen. He was fair-skinned and chubby, just like the lucky dolls in New Year's paintings, and he was so lovable.
He Meng couldn't help but say, "Yu Shen's wife must have worried a lot. She must be very hardworking."
Lin Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow. Had her mother-in-law's attitude changed so quickly?

"Fortunately, I didn't have to worry too much; my husband took care of everything," she said truthfully.
During her month-long postpartum confinement, she really didn't have to worry about anything. The only thing she did was breastfeed the baby. She didn't change the diapers once, nor did she wash the baby's bottom once. That was all Qin Yushen's responsibility.
He Meng's lips stiffened, and she gave an awkward laugh. "I hope Yu Shen's wife won't blame me for not helping out as her mother-in-law."
"No, not at all." Lin Xiaoxiao shook her head.
"The child wasn't born for you."
Even if He Meng had remarried long ago and had another family, she wouldn't be willing to lend a hand.
She certainly didn't want a mother-in-law in her family who would boss her around.
"It's good that you don't blame me," He Meng said awkwardly.
Zhou Mingmei glanced at her mother-in-law, then casually surveyed the yard, thinking to herself, "Wow, it's huge! Owning such a large house in a place like Beijing is truly enviable."
"Is it because my uncle and aunt also live here that my sister-in-law won't let us stay at her house?" she asked innocently.
