On the other side, Chen Zhi and Su Lixuan didn't notice that a strange man wrapped tightly in a men's cotton-padded jacket sat at a table near them with his back to them.
The two of them sat facing each other, staring at each other as if they were arguing, and neither of them spoke first.
After a long standoff, Shen Zhi was the first to give in. She smiled and poured a cup of tea for Su Lixuan, saying warmly, "Lixuan is late."
Su Lixuan didn't even look at the tea she poured. She emphasized in a cold voice, "Don't call me Lixuan. We're not that close."
At the table next to him, Sun Miao, wrapped in a big cotton-padded jacket, said "good" in his heart with relief.
Su Lixuan: "Just be frank. I don't have time to be polite with you. What do you want to do by suddenly looking for me?"
I didn't expect her to speak so disrespectfully. Shen Zhi looked at her for a long time and suddenly said, "You are really beautiful."
Su Lixuan raised an eyebrow, not understanding what Shen Zhi meant.
Chen Zhi didn't keep it a secret: "You are so good-looking that you even outshine Sun Miao. Sun Miao must be very rude to you, right?"
Su Lixuan: "Just speak frankly. My sister-in-law treats me very well, and it's not your place to say anything about our relationship."
A light laugh was heard, and Shen Zhi's eyes when she looked at Su Lixuan changed from admiration for Su Lixuan's appearance to admiration for Su Lixuan as a person.
She praised me directly: "You are a good sister-in-law, and you have good character. You never say a bad word about your sister-in-law in public. This is something that few people can do."
You know, even in her family, her sisters-in-law seem to get along well with each other, but once someone asks about it privately, they can't help but say a few bad things about each other.
Even so, in the eyes of outsiders, the relationship between the sisters-in-law is very good.
Chen Zhi: "Actually, you can tell me the truth. I know Sun Miao. She's arrogant and self-righteous. And most importantly, she's easily influenced and a bit stupid."
"Having someone like that as a sister-in-law must be a real headache for Li Xuan, right?"
Shen Zhi picked up a piece of food for Su Lixuan with chopsticks and spoke softly.
"Before I came to you, I talked to Sun Miao's friends. I thought they would be hard to bribe, but who knew that if I gave them a little benefit, they would spill all the beans about Sun Miao."
Su Lixuan frowned slightly, looking down upon Chen Zhi's methods.
Seeing what Su Lixuan meant, Shen Zhi smiled even wider: "Lixuan, do you want to know what Sun Miao's friends said to me?"
Su Lixuan said impatiently: "You are not trying to sow discord between me and my sister-in-law, and are going to tell me that my sister-in-law is talking bad about me to her friends behind my back, right?"
She scoffed, "If that's your method, I advise you to stop showing off in front of me as soon as possible to avoid embarrassment. I can put it here first. I won't believe a word you say, so there's no need to instigate anything."
Hearing this, Sun Miao, who was sitting at the next table, clenched his fists and tears streamed down his face. Sun Miao was deeply moved, but he didn't know that Su Lixuan's support for her was not due to any beautiful sister-in-law relationship.
Moreover, compared to the character of the third party, Shen Zhi, Su Lixuan naturally prefers and trusts the character of Sun Miao, the eldest sister-in-law.
Even if Sun Miao really said bad things about her behind her back, that was a family matter that needed to be handled between the two sisters-in-law behind closed doors. It was not a reason for her to turn her elbow outward and get close to a mistress.
She must be crazy to show that she has a bad relationship with Sun Miao and please the mistress, making an outsider laugh at her.
This is what Su Lixuan thought, but she didn’t expect that in Sun Miao’s heart, she, the sister-in-law, was shining at this moment!
Chen Zhi probably didn't expect Su Lixuan to be so difficult to deal with. She was stunned for a long time before she put a smile on her face again.
"Li Xuan, I've discovered that you're not only a good person, but you're also very smart."
She admitted, "Yes, I did come to you with this intention in mind at first, but now that you've exposed it, I won't insult you with what you call such a shameful act."
"But everything I said just now is true. Sun Miao is indeed stupid. Did you know that before she met you, she went to her friend to ask for advice on how to deal with her sister-in-law?"
"Don't you think it's funny?"
Su Lixuan didn't even blink: "It's normal. I don't think it's funny."
"You're really stubborn." Shaking her head, Shen Zhi continued, "I also know that her friends gave her a lot of advice at the time."
"It's best to give you a warning right from the start, so you know what it means to be a sister-in-law."
A show of force?
Su Lixuan thought about the first time she met Sun Miao. Sun Miao was so greedy for breakfast that he was sweating and his makeup was ruined, leaving him with two embarrassing panda eyes.
If this is considered a show of force, then Su Lixuan might have really been scared.
Chen Zhi: "Although you just married into the Lin family, you know how bad Sun Miao treats your mother-in-law, right?"
Su Lixuan was silent: "..."
If she remembered correctly, it was her eldest sister-in-law who rushed to bring the foot bath basin for her mother-in-law last night.
It's not that a daughter-in-law has to be servile and serve water to her mother-in-law for washing her feet, but her sister-in-law doesn't know what's going on now and can't wait to surround her mother-in-law and compete to be filial to her.
Now when it comes to who is the most filial in the family, biological sons and daughters like Lin Jun, Lin Zhan and Lin Wenhui cannot compare.
Her sister-in-law has done so much, but Chen Zhi and her sister-in-law's so-called friends still say that she is not good to her mother-in-law?
Oh my God.
Is the daughter-in-law's job really that complicated? If being filial to someone like this isn't considered good, then what is considered good?
Cut meat to feed mother-in-law?
Su Lixuan sighed, two words - tired.
However, she didn't expect that her sigh would become the proof of Su Lixuan's dissatisfaction with Sun Miao's behavior in Shen Zhi's eyes.
Chen Zhi smiled knowingly: "Having a sister-in-law like this must be quite troublesome for you, right?"
"Even though we've only been sitting here and talking for a few minutes, I can tell you're a very reasonable person, but Sun Miao's personality..."
She curled her lips and said, "I don't need to say more. If someone like you meets Sun Miao, it would be like a scholar meeting a soldier, and you wouldn't be able to explain yourself."
Raising her hand to interrupt Shen Zhi, Su Lixuan said the same thing: "Just say what you want to say, don't talk about these useless provocations."
Chen Zhi: "What I want to say is... Li Xuan, have you ever thought about changing your sister-in-law?"
"Get a sensible sister-in-law who's easy for you to get along with, someone who can help you and keep you from being a scoundrel...a new sister-in-law."
Her tone was almost bewitching. If Su Lixuan had really been provoked by Chen Zhi to feel dissatisfied with Sun Miao just now, she would definitely be tempted at this moment.
But unfortunately, Su Lixuan did not press the heart-beating button.
After yawning, Su Lixuan was not crazy about it. Instead, she felt that Shen Zhi was quite boring.
Did you ask her out specifically just to talk about this?
Tsk, it's neither interesting nor interesting.
Su Lixuan: "So you went to so much trouble to bribe my sister-in-law's friends, and now you want to persuade and bribe me. Your goal is just to squeeze out my sister-in-law and become my new sister-in-law?"
Her reaction seemed to be beyond Shen Zhi's expectations every time.
