"Yes, yes, I really need it. I said I'd tell my second brother later tonight." Taohua nodded hurriedly after hearing Nanqiao's words. The only people in the family who would unconditionally support her going were probably the eldest and second sister-in-law and their husbands. She knew the relationship between the second sister-in-law and her mother. In this situation, it would not be good for Nanqiao to go, and it might even implicate the second sister-in-law and make the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law worse. This was something she didn't want to see, so even though she knew that Nanqiao was the most convincing person in this matter, she never thought of asking Nanqiao to come forward.
Originally, there was only the eldest sister-in-law, and she was a little panicked. If the second brother also went, it would be good to have one more person to help her speak up.
"Okay, I'll talk to him tonight." Nanqiao agreed to this. As for herself...she didn't want to go. Although she was the one who brought up the idea of going abroad, it was for Taohua's own good. It was Taohua who wanted to go. She didn't want to take the initiative to go to someone's house and be despised.
"Okay, thank you sister-in-law." Taohua breathed a sigh of relief and thanked her with a smile
"What are you whispering about?" Shen Nian, who was sitting opposite Nanqiao, leaned against Nanbo, holding his hand on her shoulder with one hand, and asked curiously
"I told my sister-in-law that I was hungry." Taohua changed the subject and joked with a smile.
"The meal should be ready soon." Shen Nian took it seriously, thinking that she was really hungry. She looked at the time and saw that it was almost time for dinner.
Aunt Xiumei, who was standing by, watched the intimate actions of the four couples in the Nan family, including Nan's father and mother. For some reason, she thought of what Sheng Yanjun had said before. It seemed that she had really seen such a scene. It was not as unbearable as Sheng Yanjun said. As a woman, who could not love being so favored and protected by her husband?
Maybe Sheng Yanjun's concept is really wrong. No, it can't be said to be wrong. It's just the old concept of the older generation, just like her...
Just when Aunt Xiumei was immersed in her own thoughts, Xiao Han walked in from outside and stood in front of Nanqiao, "Sir, Madam, the food is ready. Shall we eat now?"
"Now," Nanqiao nodded, stood up with the help of Sheng Yanchuan, and walked towards the living room with his family.
Over the past two days, Nanqiao discovered something interesting. Ever since Sheng Yanchuan said that she would be the first in everything, although the family members always addressed her as Mr. or Mrs. whenever they asked for instructions, they only looked at her and did not even glance at Sheng Yanchuan.
This is not to say that they don't respect people, but since they asked Sheng Yanchuan, Sheng Yanchuan would also ask Nanqiao, so they simply asked Nanqiao directly.
When she talked about it with Sheng Yanchuan last night, Sheng Yanchuan laughed very happily. He was happy to see this happen. Nanqiao was the mistress of the family, and it was natural for the servants to listen to her.
There are two dining rooms in the new house, one large and one small. At this time, everyone came to the dining room with a round table. The large table can accommodate 15 people and is fully cooked.
As everyone sat down, the dishes were served one after another. The two chefs had put in all their efforts in this meal. There were all kinds of creatures swimming in the water, flying in the sky, and running on the road. It was almost comparable to the Manchu Han Banquet.
This meal was prepared grandly, and it was also Nanqiao's order. She and Sheng Yanchuan had discussed this topic. The Sheng family's opinions largely came from the fact that the role change did not keep up with their pace.
Nanqiao's life in his previous life was not worse than it is now. Although the Nan family who came here had many restrictions due to the times, their living standard was not low.
But the Sheng family is different. They have suffered all their lives and have lived in the village for the past few years. Even if they are given a lot of money, the consumption level and breadth of knowledge in their hometown are there. It will take time for them to spend 100 yuan as if it were 1 yuan.
Regardless of the house they live in now or the meal they had today, Nanqiao wanted them to realize, whether they were the couple or the Sheng family members who were their parents-in-law, brothers and sisters-in-law, that their living class was different from before.
Sooner or later, they will have to realize this, otherwise the two families will really not be able to live together in the future.
"Everyone, start eating. We are all family, so we don't need to be picky." Father Nan saw that the dishes were on the table and everyone was still sitting still. He poured wine and raised a glass together, and then asked everyone to start eating.
Although the Nan family felt that the meal was almost luxurious, they did not find it rare. After Nan's father spoke, they all started eating. Taohua had seen a lot of the world with Nanqiao over the years, so she was very receptive. Huiping was surprised and started eating. Sheng's father did not care. He was aware of the gap between the two families. He did not think it was shameful that he had not seen these things. He was at ease drinking wine and eating dishes.
On the contrary, Aunt Xiumei and Sheng Yanjun were at a loss.
Seeing the Nan family members taking it for granted, and then looking at her own restraints, Aunt Xiumei once again clearly realized the difference in their levels. Looking at the comparison between Sheng Yanchuan and Sheng Yanjun, Aunt Xiumei felt really upset, but the current situation was in front of her, and she could not afford to quibble.
The meal was delicious, but Aunt Xiumei was a little absent-minded while eating. She was thinking a lot about this meal...
After lunch, the Sheng family members, except Taohua, did not stay for long. They sat for a while and prepared to go home. Sheng Yanchuan did not stop them and asked Liu Feng to go to the warehouse to get some gift boxes sent by others and send the Sheng family members back.
Seeing the Sheng family leave, Nan's father and mother also went back together, while the Nanzhou and Nanbo families found a room here and took their children for a nap.
Not for anything else...because of the pool party at night...and a small barbecue...
We each went back to our rooms for a nap. Lying on the big bed in the room, Nanqiao thought about what Taohua said in the morning. I was in Sheng Yanchuan's arms. Nanqiao patted Sheng Yanchuan's arm.
