The couple were fast asleep when they heard a loud knocking on the door.
"Su Jiaojiao, get up and cook!"
Every wife gets up early to do laundry, cook, clean the house, and take care of the whole family.
Unlike you, sleeping until the sun's high in the sky and still not up.
Su Jiaojiao was still half asleep and hadn't realized what was happening yet; she still thought she was at the Su family home!
Without even thinking, she called out to the door, "Mom, it's just breakfast, you can just make it!"
I was exhausted last night, and my back is still aching. Can you let me sleep a little longer?
Upon hearing this, the man outside blushed and spat fiercely at the closed door.
How shameless!
She was worried that the neighbors would laugh at her family today after making such a commotion last night!
But she had no shame at all, and dared to openly discuss it.
Did her mother teach her any manners at all?
Hu Guizhen slapped the door hard a few more times, "Su Jiaojiao, you shameless idiot."
Is this how your mother taught you?
"If you don't get up, I'm sending you back to the Su family home today and I'll go talk to your mother about it."
Hearing the harsh and aggressive voice, Su Jiaojiao was immediately awakened.
This is clearly not her mother Wang Lanhua's voice.
This is... her mother-in-law Hu Guizhen's voice.
Oh my god!
She's still half asleep; she thinks she's at Old Su's house.
She suddenly remembered everything: she got married yesterday, so she was... at her in-laws' house!
"Mom's calling you, hurry up! If you don't go soon, she'll get angry!" The noise outside the door also woke Wang Zhiguo up.
The man who had been clinging to her like an octopus suddenly loosened his grip and pushed her towards the edge of the bed.
Su Jiaojiao suddenly felt a chill all over her body, and she thought it was probably because she wasn't wearing any clothes!
"Su Jiaojiao, you lazy bum, if you don't get up, I'm coming in!" The voice outside the door continued.
"They've been making noise since first thing in the morning, isn't it annoying?"
"Hurry up and go! What are you dawdling about?"
Wang Zhiguo pulled the blanket over his head, turned over, and ignored her.
Su Jiaojiao suddenly felt even colder, but it was only the beginning of autumn, so why had the temperature dropped so much?
She didn't have time to think about where the chill came from.
She had no choice but to endure her discomfort and hurriedly grabbed the clothes from the closet, putting them on haphazardly.
He casually smoothed his disheveled hair and called out to the door, "Mom, I'm coming right now."
Afraid that the person outside might be getting impatient, she opened the door without even buttoning it properly.
Hu Guizhen saw that her clothes were disheveled, her steps were unsteady, and there were faint red marks on her neck.
Having been through it all, she understood immediately, and her face darkened.
"Look at the state you're in now?"
Button it up properly, cover up your flashy leather outfit.
Who is she trying to seduce? Are there other men in the house?
Su Jiaojiao felt a little wronged. It was because she had rushed her that she opened the door before she was fully tidy.
Now you're blaming her!
She was extremely resentful. Who was she trying to impress by showing off her power so early in the morning?
She's only just married into the family, and her position isn't stable yet, so she should be patient for now.
Once she's established herself, let's see how she turns the tables.
She, Su Jiaojiao, is not someone to be bullied!
After tidying herself up, she said, "I'll go cook right away!"
Hearing this, Hu Guizhen felt a little better after being upset all morning.
He went to the kitchen with her, gave her some instructions, and then returned to his room satisfied.
After a thousand years of hardship, she has finally become a mother-in-law. From now on, she can leave the household affairs to Su Jiaojiao.
She can then sleep soundly until she naturally wakes up!
Su Jiaojiao said that because she was a burden, the Su family didn't think much of her.
She always did all the dirty and tiring work at home, and her life was as pitiful as a cabbage that was not harvested in winter.
The reason she agreed to marry Zhiguo was because she was from the countryside.
Firstly, because Zhiguo liked it, she didn't want to spoil his fun.
Secondly, she asked for a low dowry; you know, three hundred yuan isn't enough to get a wife in town these days.
Thirdly, it was also because she was hardworking; although her family lived in town, they didn't need to work in the fields.
But there are still quite a few miscellaneous chores to do both inside and outside the house.
She's getting old, and her back has been hurting badly for the past few years, so she can't do as much work anymore.
Getting married can make things a bit easier.
Anyway, Su Jiaojiao is young, so let her do more.
I didn't marry her so she could enjoy a life of luxury.
She's an old woman who's served this family her whole life; it's time for her to rest.
It was already broad daylight, and the Wang family members gradually got up.
Su Jiaojiao hurriedly brought the food to the table and said with a smile, "Everyone's up, let's eat!"
The family nodded slightly to her and sat down around the table.
But when Hu Guizhen saw the plate of bright green vegetables on the table, her expression turned sour.
"Zhiguo's wife, how much oil did you put in?"
Why are you so extravagant?
Let me tell you, you have to be careful with your money when it comes to living, you can't just waste it like this.
"Things in town aren't like your countryside; everything costs money here. You'll have to be more frugal from now on."
Su Jiaojiao cursed inwardly, "That damned old woman, she's been busy running around since early this morning."
She's so nice, taking advantage of everything and still spouting so much nonsense.
However, she only dared to say these words in her heart, and on the surface she still smiled and said, "I know, Mom."
My hand slipped, that's why I poured too much. I won't do it again next time.
Old Wang picked up his chopsticks and tapped them on the table a few times, saying, "Eat, eat."
It's so noisy so early in the morning, it's impossible to have any peace and quiet.
Hu Guizhen swallowed her words, and the family picked up the porridge on the table and slurped it down.
But soon, with a cracking sound from Old Wang's mouth, his face darkened.
With another snap, he couldn't take it anymore and threw his chopsticks onto the table.
"Zhiguo's wife, you should put more effort into cooking in the future, and you can also pick out those little stones for her."
Su Jiaojiao looked a little embarrassed; could she say she had forgotten?
When they were at the Su family home, Su Nianxue was the one who did all the housework.
Later, Su Nianxue got married, and Wang Lanhua took her place.
All she had to do was pretend and shut Su Jianguo up.
How could she remember that you had to pick out pebbles to cook?
"Dad, I remember. It was just too dark in the morning, so I didn't see clearly. I'll definitely be more careful next time."
Hu Guizhen was displeased, "It's like a lazy donkey trying to grind grain, producing lots of excrement and piss!"
Either it was a slip of the hand, or the lights were off; those are just nice words, though.
They did a terrible job, but they had plenty of excuses.
Is this what you mean by being efficient?
