Mei Bing's sister-in-law marrying into the Mei Bing family was considered a step up. Her younger sister was even prettier and more charming than her. Given Mei Bing's precedent, her family hoped her sister could also marry into a higher social class.
Mei Bing's sister-in-law also wanted her younger sister to marry into the Han family. However, "Mom, I feel that it's harder to get into the Han family than into the Mei family."
“What’s so difficult about it? If someone like your sister-in-law can get in, your sister can definitely get in too.”
Mei Bing's sister-in-law thought about it carefully. "Mom, I think we can't rush this."
The old lady was a little unhappy. "You don't mean you don't want to help your little sister, do you?"
"No. I just think my sister-in-law's mother-in-law is harder to deal with than my own mother-in-law."
The old lady disagreed. "No matter how capable she is, she can't outmaneuver her son. As long as your little sister can win over her son, she'll have no choice but to agree."
Sister-in-law Mei Bing is not only beautiful, but also intelligent. Her only flaw is her intense jealousy. If she weren't so jealous, others might never have discovered her true colors. "Mom, you can't rush things. Didn't you say that if my sister-in-law marries into the Han family, then our family and the Han family will be considered relatives? Since we're relatives, we'll definitely stay in touch."
The old lady thought about it and agreed.
Sister-in-law Mei Bing continued, "If I brought my sister with me on my first visit to their house, they might overthink it. Also, if I figured out the personality of everyone in their family before my sister made her move, the chances of success would be much greater."
The old lady nodded. "You're very thoughtful."
Mei Bing's sister-in-law smiled. "Mom, are you getting a little anxious now?"
"Yes. Your little sister is twenty-five now."
"I knew you were anxious. Otherwise, you would have thought of the same problems I could think of," Sister-in-law Mei Bing said to her mother. "Mom, no matter how anxious we are, we can't lose our composure."
The old lady nodded. "Then visit the Han family often after you go there."
"Um."
The old lady looked at Mei Bing's sister-in-law and said, "If you have any unhappiness in your heart in the future, come back and tell your mother. Don't keep it to yourself. Keeping it bottled up can easily make you confused."
Mei Bing's sister-in-law knew that her mother was referring to her accusing Mei Bing of pushing her down the stairs. "I heard from my mother-in-law that Aunt Wang wanted to introduce Mr. Guo's grandson to my sister-in-law. That's why... I never expected that after I ruined her relationship with Mr. Guo's grandson, she would find someone even better than Mr. Guo's grandson. If I had known this would happen, I would have preferred to let her marry Mr. Guo's grandson. Heaven is truly blind."
The old lady pointed at Mei Bing's sister-in-law. "You. I've told you so many times, if your sister-in-law marries well, it will only benefit you, not harm you. But you just won't listen."
"I can't stand that she's better than my man."
"You!" The old lady shook her head. "Don't do anything foolish again."
Mei Bing's sister-in-law didn't say anything.
The old lady nudged Mei Bing's sister-in-law. "Did you hear that?"
Mei Bing's sister-in-law reluctantly said, "I heard it."
The old lady patted Mei Bing's hand. "If it weren't for her, would we have been able to establish a connection with the Han family?"
Mei Bing bit her lip.
The old lady patted Mei Bing's hand again. "Listen to me. Don't make things difficult for your sister-in-law in the future."
Mei Bing's sister-in-law gritted her teeth. "Why did she, a woman, have to join the army? And even if she did, she worked so hard. Every time my father-in-law's old comrades come to visit, they always say, 'Your daughter is like this, your daughter is like that.' My father-in-law also says, 'My daughter is like this, my daughter is like that.' It's like he only has one daughter. How can I not be angry when I hear that?"
The old lady smoothed Mei Bing's hair. "Didn't you marry him because you thought he was easy to manipulate? I told you back then that people who are easy to manipulate usually don't amount to much. You said you didn't care. Why do you care now?"
“I… my husband is a man. She is a woman. What could she possibly do but go to the military and steal my husband’s thunder?”
"Don't be angry," the old lady said to Mei Bing's sister-in-law. "Your sister-in-law is getting married soon, isn't she? Once she's married, she definitely won't be able to focus all her attention on the military anymore. Even if she wanted to, her husband and in-laws wouldn't agree. And if she has children later, she'll be even less able to focus all her attention on the military."
Mei Bing's sister-in-law's mood improved a bit. "I wonder how she'll be the special forces captain after she gets pregnant?"
"Exactly. She'll definitely have no choice but to stay home and have the baby."
"Um."
Seeing that Mei Bing's sister-in-law had figured things out, the old lady picked up the topic again. "Tell me again what your sister-in-law said. I want to figure out what kind of person your sister-in-law's mother-in-law is."
"Okay. My sister-in-law said..."
Xiaoman knew that Tengteng would be bringing Meibing back to meet Han Dashan and Tang Huihui in a few days, so she went up the mountain to pick up Lao Shang and Lao Guo.
My older sister often takes Chou Chou to the mountain to visit Lao Shang and Lao Guo.
As soon as Xiaoman, Lao Shang, and Lao Guo came in, Chou Chou ran over with the little wolf. "Grandma, Great-Grandpa Shang, Great-Grandpa Guo, you're back?"
Xiaoman smiled. "Mm."
Old Guo pulled a paper package from his pocket: "Here you go."
Ugly's eyes lit up immediately: "Grandpa Guo, you're so kind."
Old Guo patted Chou Chou's head. "Good boy."
Old Shang pinched his ugly little nose. "Hello, Great-Grandpa Guo. And how about Great-Grandpa Shang?"
Chou Chou took a pastry out of the oil paper package that Lao Guo had given him and held it up. "Grandpa Shang, have some pastry."
"Haha..." Old Shang took the pastries from Chou Chou's hands.
Chou Chou then gave another pastry to Old Guo: "Grandpa Guo, have some pastry."
"Okay." Old Guo took the snacks.
Then, Chou Chou gave Xiao Man a pastry.
After Xiaoman took the snacks, Chou Chou fed Xiao Hei and the old wolf three snacks to the little wolf.
After going around in circles, Chou Chou only had two pastries left. Holding the pastries, Chou Chou walked up to Old Guo and looked at him pitifully, saying, "Grandpa Guo, Chou Chou has no more pastries to eat."
"Don't you still have two pieces?"
“These belong to my great-grandmother and great-grandfather.”
"Then Grandpa Guo will make you some more."
"Grandpa Guo, you are so kind."
Old Guo patted Chou Chou's head. "Good boy."
Chou Chou hugged Old Guo's leg. "Grandpa Guo, Chou Chou really loves the snacks you make."
"Then Grandpa Guo will make you more."
“Okay. But making pastries is tiring.” Chou Chou blinked at Old Guo: “Grandpa Guo, can you teach Chou Chou how to make pastries? That way, Chou Chou can make pastries by herself.”
"good."
Just as Lao Guo finished speaking, his sister and brother returned from outside with Han Dashan and Tang Huihui.
Ugly immediately ran over and hugged her sister's leg. "Mom, I've completed the mission."
