Chapter 170 Family Matters
After a while, Chen Cailian finally realized that Lin Yangyang was teasing her, and her expression instantly became even uglier.
"Yangyang, you really are a good person. You use your husband's allowance to buy gifts for your husband's sister-in-law. This is a good plan. You don't have to spend your own money, but you get the good reputation for yourself."
"Having a good reputation is good, isn't that good?" Lin Yangyang turned to look at Wei Mingfang and handed over another gift bag.
"Mom, didn't you tell me last time that Dad's recorder was broken? I bought him a new one. It can be heard very clearly. I think Dad will like it."
When they saw Lin Yangyang take out the brand new radio, the eyes of the people around him lit up.
This is not something you can even buy with money!
I am so lucky to have a daughter-in-law like Lin Yangyang.
"And this dress, I picked it out for you in the store, take a look and see if you like it. If you don't like it, I'll take it back and change it."
Then, she took out a pair of shoes from another gift bag. "I didn't know what big brother liked, so I bought him a pair of shoes. Shiyuan said that big brother's feet are size 47, and the wrong ones can be exchanged. Also, these colored pencils and books are all bought for Xiaolan."
"These flower mushrooms, red dates, fish maw and so on are bought at home. You can cook them for your sister-in-law or for everyone. And this bird's nest, I will teach you how to stew it later. You can drink it with your sister-in-law and Xiaolan after it's done."
After hearing the last words, Chen Cailian's eyes widened as big as copper bells!
She even bought these bird's nests thinking of giving them to Wei Mingfang, an old woman, and Lu Jialan, a little girl?
"Yangyang, don't say that your aunt is scolding you. You are such a pity for having read so many books! These are all to deceive people like you who don't understand! What bird's nest? It's just the saliva of swallows. How can it be as good as the legend says? You are just trying to compare and follow the trend, so you bought bird's nests like others! Bird's nests are as useless as milk! You are really a person who can't make money but is good at spending money. Humph, Shiyuan must be very tired and hard to support you, right?"
Lin Yangyang felt so amused when hearing this.
"It turns out that my aunt thinks milk is not a good thing."
Just when Chen Cailian was speechless about Lin Yangyang's focus, she saw Lin Yangyang lower his head to look at the gift bag, and then handed it to Wei Mingfang.
"Since Auntie doesn't like it, let's save the milk for Xiaolan. Xiaolan is still growing, and drinking this is good for her health."
After saying that, Lin Yangyang looked at Chen Cailian provocatively, "Anyway, Auntie doesn't want it either."
Chen Cailian never thought that Lin Yangyang wanted to send her milk!
"Are you still thinking of buying milk for my son Dongzi? Dongzi likes it very much. Thank you so much..."
"Hey!" Wei Mingfang took away the bag and dodged the hand that Chen Cai stretched out. "Sister-in-law, you just said that milk is useless. Drinking too much is not good. So, leave it to my Xiaolan."
Hearing this, Chen Cailian was so angry that her face turned pale, but she had nothing to say.
Looking at so many gifts, it would be a lie for Chen Cailian to say she wasn't envious or jealous.
But she wouldn't say a single good word.
"Yangyang, you are really successful... ah, no, it's Shiyuan who is really successful. He can earn so much money to buy gifts for the family. As the leader of the group, the allowance is really a lot. He bought gifts and sent his daughter to school. It's really amazing."
Why does this sound so hostile?
Lin Yangyang frowned and turned to look at Chen Cailian.
Wei Mingfang sneered first, "She is quite promising, but it's not just Shiyuan who is promising, Yangyang is also promising. Oh, sister-in-law is sitting at home facing the walls every day, so she must not know. Yangyang is now a famous designer! So many people are lining up hoping that Yangyang can make a piece of clothing for them! Yangyang has made a lot of money now, not to mention being able to buy so many gifts to bring home, even supporting Ningning to finish college is not a problem!"
After saying that, Wei Mingfang snorted at Chen Cailian, and helped Lin Yangyang carry the gifts and go home.
Lin Yangyang didn't look at Chen Cailian again, but looked at Wei Mingfang's back in surprise.
She thought Wei Mingfang would also be against Ningning going to school, because in those days, not many people could read, and in fact many places still retained the bad habit of "a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent."
Unexpectedly, it turned out that Wei Mingfang also agreed to let Ningning go to school.
"This Chen Cailian, she just speaks without thinking! Yangyang, don't take it to heart, just treat it as a joke! She just can't stand us living better than her! Humph!"
As they walked, Wei Mingfang kept complaining about Chen Cailian.
"And you, you said you would be back today, but you didn't tell me what time, so I could pick you up at the village entrance. Your hand injury hasn't healed yet, and you brought so many things back."
Lin Yangyang followed behind Wei Mingfang with a smile on her face.
There were only my sister-in-law who was pregnant and my three siblings who were having a lot of fun at home.
When they saw Lin Yangyang, Ningning and Jiayan rushed over happily.
When sister-in-law Liu Xuezhen saw Lin Yangyang bringing back so many gifts, she couldn't stop smiling.
Lin Yangyang, who has read the original text, has already analyzed the characters mentioned in the book very thoroughly.
Liu Xuezhen wasn't a vicious sister-in-law, but she wasn't someone who was easy to get along with either.
When Lu Shiyuan becomes the head of the group, she feels that having such a brother-in-law can help her to hide her talents and bring honor to herself.
But at home, she feels that her husband is not as good as her brother-in-law in everything, and she is not as good as the educated Lin Yangyang.
However, generally speaking, Liu Xuezhen was not a particularly difficult person to get along with. After all, they were just relatives, not lovers, so Lin Yangyang didn't think it mattered.
In the evening, when father-in-law and uncle came back, Wei Mingfang had already prepared a table full of delicious food, with the fragrant smell of flower mushrooms. Even Wangcai from the neighboring house was squatting in front of the house early, waiting to eat bones.
Lin Yangyang, on the other hand, felt a little uninterested.
Just because she called Lu Shiyuan in the afternoon and asked him to come back for dinner in the evening...but was rejected.
After dinner, when Lin Yangyang finished bathing her two children and was about to return to her room, she happened to pass by her uncle Lu Shitian's room and heard their conversation.
"What's the point of studying? You think your family is rich, and you're sending your daughter to school! You'd better save that money for when your son is born, and for future studies! You're just a money-loser, why should you study?"
It was Liu Xuezhen's voice.
When facing outsiders, Liu Xuezhen speaks very politely, but unexpectedly, when facing her own husband, she speaks very rudely.
"What are you talking about? You are a woman too, are you a money loser too? How can you talk like that in front of your daughter? Do you use your brain?" It was Lu Shitian's voice, with a hint of displeasure in his tone.
However, this uncle surprised Lin Yangyang because he didn't seem to favor boys over girls.
