Chapter 13 You didn’t abuse me, but you didn’t treat me well either



"He bought us a new house, bought us some big furniture for the house, and also filled Jialiang's position. When Master Jialiang retires in two months, I can let Jialiang fill his position."

"You two elders have been busy for Jialiang and me, but it's just a chicken drumstick. Compared to what you gave me, a chicken drumstick is nothing."

Qi Xue even emphasized the word "things".

Su Lixuan's eyebrows curved, was this a subtle criticism of her being short-sighted?

This cheap sister-in-law of hers is quite capable of bullying people, but she's not very smart.

He doesn't even understand the principle of making a fortune in silence.

He dared to show off how good Lin Yuanshan was to his stepson Lin Jialiang in front of Lin Zhan. Haha, he didn't take Lin Zhan and Li Yanhong seriously at all.

Seeing that Lin Zhan and Li Yanhong both looked unhappy.

The two of them looked at her with some guilt, as if they had wronged her by marrying her.

Su Lixuan was helpless. If she was easily aroused by Qi Xue's dissatisfaction, she would be truly short-sighted.

Su Li pretended to be surprised: "You have a new house?"

Seeing her so surprised, Qi Xue said complacently: "Yes, and it's a building, unlike your shabby compound."

"We don't need to squeeze in together. Why didn't your mother-in-law buy you a new house?"

Noticing Li Yanhong's hand trembling, Su Lixuan remained calm and said, "No way, you're going to go out and live alone right after you got married?"

"What?" Qi Xue didn't react.

Su Lixuan shook her head, looking disapproving: "Mom asked me this morning if I wanted to buy a new house so that I could move out with A Zhan."

As she spoke, she sniffed, "I burst into tears right there and then!"

Qi Xue: “???”

Chen Fei: “???”

Lin Yuanshan: “???”

Su Lixuan felt very aggrieved: "I asked my mother at the time if she didn't like me as a daughter-in-law, otherwise why would she kick me out right after the wedding."

"We all live together as a family, it's so lively, why are you kicking me out just because I got married?"

She looked at Qi Xue sympathetically and said, "Don't think too much. Aunt Chen probably likes you, but... maybe she feels that there are too many people at home, so she bought a new house for you to live alone. It's not that she dislikes you."

The smug look on Qi Xue's face disappeared, and her expression now looked like she had eaten shit.

"Are you crazy?"

"Huh? What's crazy?" Su Lixuan tilted her head. "Sister-in-law, am I wrong? It's so nice to live with the elders. I like living with my mother. Having an elder at home is like having a backbone."

"My mom is also very nice to me. She started praising me before I even ate the meal I made this morning."

Chen Fei blurted out: "Are you still cooking?"

Su Lixuan turned her gaze towards her and nodded obediently: "Yes, I have to respect my mother. What if my mother doesn't eat in time when she gets up in the morning and gets hypoglycemia? There was an old lady in our yard who fainted this morning due to hypoglycemia."

"His face hit the ground. His brain wasn't working well to begin with, and this hit him even more stupidly."

In the slum, Zhang Guifang, who was being talked about, sneezed violently.

Facing Chen Fei, Su Lixuan said sincerely: "Aunt Chen, why are you so surprised? Is it because your daughter-in-law doesn't cook for you?"

Chen Fei choked. She wanted to say "I will do it too", but she couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart.

Still cooking?

Qi Xue couldn't even think about cooking for her. If she, as her mother-in-law, didn't serve the meal to Qi Xue after cooking, it would seem like she, as the mother-in-law, hadn't done her job well.

With mixed feelings in her heart, Chen Fei forced a smile and tried to save face: "I can't bear to let my daughter-in-law cook."

Su Lixuan sighed: "My mother-in-law is reluctant to let me cook. She feels sorry for me, but I am even more reluctant to let her cook. She has worked hard all her life and it's time for her to enjoy herself."

"That's why I don't want to move out. I'm happy to stay with my mother-in-law and take care of her. This way, Zhan can rest assured and work hard outside without any worries."

Lin Jialiang looked envious from the corner of her eye. It was obvious that he had been caught between his mother and his wife. Su Lixuan sneered inwardly and added fuel to the fire: "And Ah Zhan also said he would buy me some big clothes and so on, but I didn't want any of them."

"I feel bad for Ah Zhan making money. I'm good-looking, so why would I need to buy those extra things? They're a waste of money and useless."

She held her face and said sweetly to the Lin family, "Look at me, wouldn't I look good even in a sack? I can't bear to let Ah Zhan spend money on me. Lin Zhan has a lot of places to spend money when he's out and about."

She said these words of sympathy to Lin Zhan, but it was Lin Jialiang whose eyes turned red.

Lin Jialiang couldn't help but recall that today Qi Xue gave him the cold shoulder in front of the whole family because he didn't take her to the department store.

Thinking about Lin Zhan's naive wife, Lin Jialiang's eyes turned red with jealousy.

Lin Zhan pursed his lips, looked down at his young wife, and unconsciously covered his chest with his hands. He didn't understand why Su Lixuan had been marrying him.

No, it should be said that ever since he met Su Lixuan...something seemed to be wrong with his heart.

Sometimes it dances very fast, and sometimes it feels extremely sore and weak.

I want to reach out and hold the person in my arms, as if only in this way can the discomfort in my heart be filled.

After admiring the Lin family's expressions, Su Lixuan glanced at the sky outside. Lin Zhan understood.

He was not curious about why Lin Yuanshan called them over for dinner.

For him, the only important thing he came here for today was to transfer his sister's household registration.

Seeing that Chen Fei had adjusted her attitude, she began to pretend to invite them to dinner.

Lin Zhan was too lazy to move his chopsticks and just went straight to the point and stated his purpose.

The expression that Chen Fei had finally adjusted froze on her face again.

She was a little incredulous: "What did you say?"

"Look at you, kid, you just love to joke around. How can you talk about something as important as moving your household registration so casually?"

"Your sister has been raised by Aunt Chen since she was a child. Although I'm not her biological mother, I believe I haven't treated her badly in any way."

She looked at Lin Wenhui, who had been silent the whole time, with a look of grievance on her face: "Wenhui, tell your brother, have I ever treated you unfairly or abused you?"

"Being a stepmother is hard. From childhood to adulthood, when have I not treated my children equally?"

"Now that you've grown up and don't need to rely on others to raise you, you're starting to abandon me..."

Chen Fei started to cry as she spoke: "How will outsiders view me as your stepmother?"

"Those who don't know would think I've abused you for more than ten years, but have I ever abused you?"

Lin Wenhui pursed her lips. She knew that once she mentioned that she wanted to go back to live with her biological mother, Chen Fei would definitely cry, make a fuss, and even threaten to commit suicide.

It’s not that I love her too much, but I’m unwilling to lose a nanny like her.

Thinking of Chen Fei's questioning of her just now, she retorted: "You didn't abuse me, but you didn't treat me well either."
