Chapter 74 Change a Daughter-in-law
Lin Yangyang did this simply because she didn't want Ningning to develop an inferiority complex and feel that she was different from others or even her brother.
However, Lin Yangyang took the two children back to the living room, and Du Jiaru looked at Wei Mingfang with a frown.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with your daughter-in-law? Was she mocking me just now?"
Wei Mingfang glanced at her, said nothing, and turned around to continue cooking.
Du Jiaru continued, "It's good that Ningning knows how to 'call' people, at least it's better than not being able to express herself. But what did she mean just now? It was her own problem that she gave birth to a dumb daughter. Even if she could use gestures to express her meaning, I couldn't understand it. Is this how she treats her elders?"
Wei Mingfang raised her eyebrows. "She is just like that. To put it nicely, she is frank. To put it bluntly, she is impolite."
"That's right! The way she acted just now, as if I owed her something, really made me angry. Sister-in-law, I'm serious. A woman like her is really not suitable to be a daughter-in-law."
It seems that when they were in the village, Wei Mingfang often said bad things about Lin Yangyang to Du Jiaru, otherwise Du Jiaru would not have said such things.
"Don't talk nonsense. If Shiyuan hears it, he will quarrel with you." Wei Mingfang snorted and threw the beans into the basket with a little temper.
In the village, Wei Mingfang did complain about her daughter-in-law Lin Yangyang many times. Although she did not say that she wanted to change her daughter-in-law, Du Jiaru felt that Wei Mingfang had this idea.
"What are you arguing about? It's the parents' order and the matchmaker's words. You ask him to change, even if he doesn't want to..."
"Mom, is there any hot water?"
At this moment, Lin Yangyang walked into the kitchen with a kettle. Du Jiaru was startled and quickly said, "Hey, the water has just boiled. Let me pour some water for you."
Lin Yangyang just heard Du Jiaru discussing whether to change or not. She didn't hear the previous sentence and just thought that Du Jiaru asked to change some kitchen utensils.
"Don't bother, I can do it myself." Lin Yangyang dodged Du Jiaru's hand and went to the stove to get some boiling water.
Looking at her profile, Du Jiaru smiled and said, "Oh, Yangyang, you really take good care of your skin. You look really young."
Lin Yangyang just smiled politely and said, "Thank you for the compliment."
It didn't take long for the kettle to be filled. Lin Yangyang picked up the kettle and turned to leave the kitchen.
Seeing her walk into the living room, Du Jiaru immediately made a face at her.
"Sister-in-law, look at your daughter-in-law. She doesn't even want to talk to anyone. Or does she think we are poor and unworthy of talking to her?"
Wei Mingfang smiled and said, "You asked her to divorce my son. How could she be willing to pay attention to you?"
"Tsk, she didn't hear me... But, sister-in-law, what I said is true. With Shiyuan's good conditions, he could find any kind of woman? Why did he have to find such an unruly woman?"
Hearing Du Jiaru's comments about Lin Yangyang, Wei Mingfang frowned in displeasure, "What are you talking about? How can you use such words to describe Shiyuan's wife?"
Du Jiaru looked unconvinced, "Am I wrong? Sister-in-law, you said it yourself. She lives an immoral life. Now almost the entire military compound knows that Lin Yangyang is having an affair with an old classmate. If this isn't a slut, what else can she be?"
"Be more kind-hearted with your words." Wei Mingfang still glared at her unhappily.
When she couldn't see, Du Jiaru rolled her eyes and said, "Sister-in-law, there is no smoke without fire, and there is no fly without bite. If she hadn't behaved improperly, how could there be such rumors? Why don't you see people gossiping about other people? Why do you insist on saying that she is immoral? Didn't you say that there are rumors that she gave up her family and children for another man, and even committed suicide to show her love? Humph! Whoever marries a woman like this will be in trouble!"
Although Lin Yangyang once swore that she had never done anything to let the Lu family down, who knows the truth?
Wei Mingfang also wanted to stand on her side, but when she thought about the rumors flying around outside, she felt uneasy.
"I'm just thinking about your own good. Think about it, Lin Yangyang is so pretty, maybe she really hasn't done anything wrong now, but what about in the future? Maybe a very rich boss or a rich man, or even a military officer above the division level, will take a fancy to her. Who can guarantee that she won't cheat on your son? It's said that you should marry a virtuous woman, think about it yourself, where is the virtuousness of Lin Yangyang?"
As she listened, she seemed to feel that what Du Jiaru said was right, which made Wei Mingfang even more suspicious of Lin Yangyang.
"Even if we want to find another daughter-in-law, we have to find a good one first. Besides, I don't know how to convince Shiyuan."
"First, find a way to divorce Shiyuan and Lin Yangyang. As long as Shiyuan can see the true face of his wife, he will divorce immediately. Then, we can bring Shiyuan and his new partner together and let him know that he should marry a wife who is good for himself and the family, and he will naturally agree."
Wei Mingfang looked at her doubtfully, feeling that what she said made some sense but was not quite reliable.
In the living room, Lin Yangyang did not hear the conversation between the two in the kitchen, but she probably guessed it.
In the original book, it was this cousin who introduced Fang Shuting to Lu Shiyuan, but this time the time was much earlier.
Her arrival will more or less change the direction of the plot.
But now, she is Lu Shiyuan's wife. I believe Du Jiaru will not be stupid enough to let Lu Shiyuan divorce and marry another woman.
Lin Yangyang originally thought that Du Jiaru would only stay at their house for a meal and then leave, but who knew that Wei Mingfang and Du Jiaru would both stay overnight.
The next day, Lin Yangyang went to work early in the morning, leaving Wei Mingfang and Du Jiaru at home.
The two of them were chatting while washing clothes in front of the well.
Wei Mingfang loves cleanliness very much. Seeing that the two children’s quilts had not been washed for a month, she simply washed them together.
Wei Mingfang had a hard time lifting the large basin of clothes and quilts, when suddenly a pair of hands reached out to her.
She said softly, "Aunt, how about I help you?"
It was Fang Shuting, who helped Wei Mingfang carry a basin full of wet clothes back to Lu's house.
Seeing that Wei Mingfang's waist was not in good condition, Fang Shuting simply held the basin in her arms and walked forward step by step with some difficulty.
Wei Mingfang walked in the back and hammered her waist, which was not feeling well. Du Jiaru walked over and asked softly, "Hey, sister-in-law, who is this girl?"
"You don't recognize her? She's from your village, Lao Fang's little daughter."
Du Jiaru suddenly realized, and walked over to Fang Shuting with a smile, "You are Shuting? Oh, how many years have I not seen you? You have grown so big now."
Only then did Fang Shuting recognize that Du Jiaru was the woman who married into their village and was Lu Shiyuan's cousin.
"Hello, Aunt Du." Fang Shuting called politely.
