"Compared like this, our Xiaowei is better than your Lixuan. She's much less of a worry and knows how to care for her parents. She doesn't need them to spend any money at all."
Ye Shuijiang: "That's right, our Xiaowei has a stable place in her husband's family, so there's no need for all this fancy stuff."
"As long as we as parents are here and our hearts are in it, no one can find fault with us."
He chuckled and said, "Maybe your Li Xuan's situation is different. If you don't rush to send gifts to her in-laws, she'll have a hard time."
After hearing what they said, it seemed that the Su family's visit to their in-laws was very polite not because the Su family did a good job.
On the contrary, it seems that Su Lixuan has no foothold in her husband's family, so her parents need to send gifts to her husband's family to please them.
Every member of the Su family, even the eldest brother's son, such a little kid, was so angry that he laughed.
Aunt Wang had been following this group of people stealthily for a long time, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Everyone subconsciously turned around and saw an unfamiliar old lady. Huang Li was the first to speak: "What are you laughing at?"
Aunt Wang covered her mouth and said, "Pfft...it's okay. I'm a neighbor who lives in the same compound with your two daughters."
"Just keep talking, don't worry about me."
Seeing everyone's suspicious eyes, Aunt Wang showed the bowl in her hand and said, "This bowl was left to us by one of your relatives when they were filling up some spareribs for me."
"It just so happens that I'm going to go to the backyard with you guys to return the bowl to them."
Send pork ribs?
Huang Li smacked her lips. "You neighbors even give each other spareribs? For free?"
Aunt Wang nodded: "That's right, your in-laws are doing well, and I, a poor neighbor, always need help."
"I'm embarrassed to say it out loud. I'm always clinging to others and enjoying the good life."
When Huang Li heard this, she thought Aunt Wang was talking to her, and immediately covered her mouth with her hands and smiled artificially: "Oh, yes, my in-laws are living a good life."
"I can't help it. My son-in-law is a fourth-level fitter, so he can earn a lot. Now that my daughter is pregnant, our family's living standard needs to be improved."
She looked at the Su family members ostentatiously: "My in-laws give my daughter delicious food and spicy drinks every day?"
"Oh, what a waste! Just getting pregnant doesn't have to be so expensive, and you have to take such good care of it."
She is so cocky.
"What did I say just now? No matter how much the daughter's parents give her, it's not as good as her own ability to stand firm in her husband's family."
"Look at my in-laws. They are afraid of mistreating my daughter. I will have to talk to my mother-in-law when I meet her later."
After she finished showing off, she looked at Aunt Wang with contempt.
"I have to tell my mother-in-law that no matter how good the relationship between neighbors is, they can't lose sight of the difference between inside and outside."
"After all, we're not family. If we share some meat today and something else tomorrow, won't our appetites get bigger over time?"
Huang Liqiu nudged Ye Shuijiang with her arm and agreed: "Shuijiang, don't you think this makes sense? We need to have a good chat with our in-laws."
Seeing her tail raised so high, Aunt Wang couldn't help laughing.
Waving her hands, Aunt Wang teased Huang Li deliberately: "I'm really sorry to bother you with this, but it's useless no matter how much you talk to your in-laws."
Huang Li frowned: "Why is it useless? Are you trying to say that my in-laws can't listen to me?"
"Tsk, then let me tell you right here, my in-laws have to do whatever I say!"
With her daughter holding the Lu family members tightly under her control, doesn't Huang Li have the final say when she arrives at the Lu family?
No matter how difficult Zhang Guifang was, no one dared to give her a cold look now.
This is the confidence that enables my daughter to "stand up"!
Seeing how arrogant she was, Aunt Wang didn't have the heart to pour cold water on her.
Aunt Wang: "Sister, I don't mean whether your in-laws will listen to you, and this meat was not given by your in-laws at all."
"She didn't give it to me, and I'm not returning the bowl to the Lu family."
"No matter how much you tell your in-laws...it's useless. I won't miss out on eating here."
"And to be honest, your in-laws are... actually quite stingy."
"So you don't even need to discuss this with your in-laws. It's superfluous. Even if you don't, your in-laws don't have the luxury of living a luxurious life and letting the neighbors take advantage of them."
Huang Li was stunned: "What did you say?"
Aunt Wang sighed and said, "Sister, I see you are younger than me, how come your hearing is worse than mine?"
"I've made it very clear. Your in-laws are the Lu family, right? The Lu family's conditions are... just so-so, not even as good as my family's."
"Don't even mention asking me to rely on Zhang Guifang's influence. It's good enough that she doesn't come to my house to eat and drink for free."
The Lu family only has Lu Yang who works, but Lu Yang doesn't use his salary to support the family.
No matter how much Zhang Guifang brags, it's just for show. In reality, her living standard is just that.
She was just following this group of people and heard Huang Li's implicit criticism of Su Lixuan. She couldn't stand it anymore, so she jumped out and told the truth.
Aunt Wang smiled and said, "Big sister, your daughter is Ye Wei, right? I just followed you and listened for a long time, and I heard you say that your daughter can stand on her own in her husband's family."
"Pfft... Never mind. I won't say any more, to avoid getting you, as parents, mad. Just say whatever you want. Just be happy."
She might as well say it clearly instead of being so secretive.
Huang Li's face turned green: "Explain yourself clearly!"
Aunt Wang waved her hand: "What's there to say? Let's go. I'm in a hurry to return the bowl."
She took the hand of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Su family in a familiar manner: "I heard that you were on the side of your sister-in-law just now. You are a good sister-in-law."
"Don't worry about your sister-in-law. I live nearby and I know what kind of life your sister-in-law is going through."
"It's different from her daughter."
The 'her family' here naturally refers to Ye Shuijiang and Huang Li's family.
Aunt Wang seemed to be talking to Zhang Chunlan, but in fact she was speaking to Huang Li.
"Your sister-in-law has one of the best lives in our compound. She doesn't have to worry about whether she can stand on her own or not. She doesn't have to worry about anything else."
"Her husband, mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and sister-in-law can all praise her to the sky. You guys, just rest assured."
After showing the bowl in her hand again, Aunt Wang glanced at Huang Li, who had a ferocious expression, and continued to speak indirectly to the Su family.
"Unlike other families, where a pregnant daughter-in-law has to fight with her mother-in-law just to eat an egg."
"If I win, it seems like I've established myself in my husband's family, but in fact, there's no need to work so hard."
She gave an example: "Like your Su Lixuan, whenever she wants to eat something, she doesn't have to wait overnight. She can just give the order in the morning and have it ready at noon."
