Chapter 389: Difficulty in Handling the Relationship between Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law



Li Shaozhong couldn't avoid showing up when he got home, so he went to the study.

Ye Shuning was a little surprised to see her husband come back. "Brother Zhong, why are you back at this time? Didn't you say you would be back late this afternoon?"

Li Shaozhong certainly couldn't say that it was his mother who called him back. "I finished my afternoon work early. I came back first because I had nothing else to do."

He turned to look at Qin Zongye, "When did Aye arrive in Haizhou?"

Qin Zongye said, "I arrived yesterday. Today I asked Xiao Ning to come and discuss the international fashion show."

Li Shaozhong saw the design drawing on the coffee table, walked to the sofa and sat next to his wife.

He picked up a design drawing and said, "Xiao Ning has been thinking about the international fashion show for a long time. She has put a lot of effort into these designs."

Qin Zongye said, "Although the clothing factory has several good designers, they still need Xiao Ning's guidance. For example, the clothes designed by Xiao Ning can be directly participated in fashion shows."

Qin Zongye also talked about the situation of clothing factories and fashion shows.

Li Shaozhong asked about the situation of several other factories in Shenzhou, and Qin Zongye told him everything he knew.

In the evening, Li Shaozhong invited Qin Zongye to have dinner at his home.

Qin Zongye and Li Shaozhong and his wife have a very close relationship. They used to often eat at Li's house, so they didn't think there was anything wrong with eating at Li's house this time.

Ling Xuan was very happy to see Qin Zongye when he came back, and the two of them chatted enthusiastically.

Young people have a lot to talk about when they are together, and Ye Shuning took the opportunity to ask Qin Zongye about some of the situations in Nangang.

Of course, Qin Zongye told everything he knew.

Ling Xuan was also chatting nearby.

Li Shaozhong and others were accustomed to such scenes and didn't think anything of it, but Yang Jinping, who had something on her mind, found it extremely irritating.

The two young men surrounded Ye Shuning, chatting and laughing with her. This was a common occurrence, and it made her, a more conservative older generation, very uncomfortable.

But Yang Jinping also knew that she couldn't say it directly.

During the night rest period, Yang Jinping pulled her youngest son into her room and asked, "Shaozhong, do Qin Zongye and Ling Xuan often talk and laugh with Xiao Ning like they did today?"

Li Shaozhong saw his mother's expression and said, "Mom, we are all friends and partners. We are all familiar with each other. It's okay to get together and chat from time to time."

Yang Jinping frowned and said, "That's too rude. Xiao Ning is married after all, so she should avoid suspicion."

Li Shaozhong felt helpless about his mother's conservatism, "Mom, it's a different era now. We're all friends. Besides trivial matters, we also have a lot of work to discuss together. It's inevitable that we'll have frequent contact.

Besides, I know all of Xiao Ning's friends, and we've never avoided each other, so please don't be so suspicious."

Yang Jinping said, "I'm doing this for your own good. You should be careful and don't let anyone take advantage of you. Also, look at the clothes Xiao Ning is wearing. Aren't they a little revealing? After all, you're married, so you should be more careful."

Ye Shuning was standing outside her mother-in-law's room. She had originally brought her a summer quilt, as she would need one if the air conditioner was on at night. She hadn't expected to hear her mother-in-law say such words, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

Ye Shuning did not enter the room, but carried Xia Liang back to her room.

Ye Shuning felt very uncomfortable, as it reminded her of the time when her mother-in-law insisted that Li Shaozhong break off the engagement with her after she was abducted. It seemed that although her mother-in-law treated her well on the surface, she actually didn't trust her at all.

If you trust her, you won't have those thoughts at all.

She has her own career and will inevitably interact with many gay men in the future. Does this mean she can't have more contact with them just to avoid suspicion? Doesn't she have the right to have friends of the opposite sex?

Also, her outfit is very common in Haizhou, so why is it so revealing? It's so hot here in Haizhou, does she still need to cover herself up tightly?

Or is it that mothers-in-law are born to dislike their daughters-in-law?

Li Shaozhong was also very helpless about his mother's words. Everyone has different ideas and opinions. It is not right for a mother to impose her own ideas on others.

Li Shaozhong said patiently, "Mom, Xiao Ning and I are doing fine now, so don't worry about it. And Xiao Ning's clothes, that's how they dress in Haizhou. It's called when in Rome, do as the Romans do. The South is more open than the North. You can't expect people living in the South to follow Northern values, right?"

Li Shaozhong persuaded and counseled his mother, and soon returned to his room.

As soon as he entered the bedroom, he saw that his wife looked very bad and was sitting on the bed in a daze, holding the quilt.

Li Shaozhong saw this and asked, "Wife, what are you doing holding the quilt?"

Ye Shuning looked up at her husband and said in a somewhat dull tone, "I'm going to send this to my mother. Can you help me deliver it?"

She really doesn't want to see her mother-in-law now, she is afraid that she can't control her emotions.

Li Shaozhong knew something was wrong when he heard this. He walked over to the bed, sat next to his wife, put his arm around her shoulders, and asked, "What happened? Why are you unhappy?"

Ye Shuning turned her head and looked at her husband. She didn't intend to keep it to herself, so she decided to speak frankly. "Do you think I can still be happy after listening to what my mother said?"

Li Shaozhong knew his wife had heard what his mother had just said, so he quickly coaxed her, "Don't take my mother's words to heart. The older generation is quite conservative, so don't bother with her. Let's just live our lives as we should."

Ye Shuning sighed and said, "No wonder people say that mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law are natural enemies and that their relationship is difficult to handle. My mother can't stand me interacting with others. Does that mean all the staff I hire in the future must be women? How can I work then? My mother has worked before, so how could she have such thoughts? Or does she simply not trust me?"

Li Shaozhong also had a headache, thinking that his mother was really looking for trouble. It seemed that it was not appropriate for his mother to live here permanently. He had to let his mother go back as soon as possible.

Li Shaozhong coaxed Ye Shuning for a long time.

Ye Shuning didn't want to embarrass her husband. "Don't worry, I won't have any conflicts with Mom. She finally came here, so I will definitely be more accommodating to her. I'll just be more careful in the future."

Li Shaozhong sighed. He didn't want his wife to change her lifestyle and become unhappy because of his mother's situation. It seemed like there was a real generation gap between the younger and older generations.

The next day, Ye Shuning went to the Haizhou Daily Chemical Factory with her husband. Ye Shuning still felt that it was better to have less contact with her mother-in-law at work.

She had little contact with her mother-in-law before and didn't feel any conflicts. Now she feels that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is really difficult to handle.
