"My cousin and his wife are leaving tomorrow, so let's eat more tonight."
Xu Qingluo spoke with concern for her in a tone of an elder. Chen Xiangyan was stunned. She never expected that Xu Qingluo would lose face in front of her.
After all, she is a few years older than Xu Qingluo, and has been married into the Zhou family the longest. At least Xu Qingluo should listen to her opinions more.
Grandpa Zhou took a sip of wine without saying anything. Grandma Zhou glanced at Chen Xiangyan, and there was a hint of complexity in her eyes and a hint of anger on her face.
The three granddaughters-in-law of the second brother's family are somewhat confused about the priorities. This time it is time to let them see their own positions clearly.
"I........"
Grandpa Zhou and Grandma Zhou did not say anything to accuse Xu Qingluo of wrongdoing. Father Zhou Qi and Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou naturally did not dare to say anything either.
According to generational order, Xu Qingluo is Chen Xiangyan's cousin, and Chen Xiangyan should respect Xu Qingluo as her cousin.
Instead of publicly showing her a threat on the third day after Xu Qingluo got married, what's more, Xu Qingluo was the daughter-in-law of the eldest wife, and she was overstepping her boundaries.
Aunt Zhou Zhou looked at Chen Xiangyan with disappointment. Grandpa Zhou and Grandma Zhou didn't say that there was anything wrong with Xu Qingluo's behavior. Is Chen Xiangyan crazy?
"I didn't marry a wife to have her cook for me."
"My cousin, please don't be too nosy."
Zhou Yuheng chuckled, his tone a little cold. He usually didn't like to talk much, and didn't like to argue with his cousin. He always spoke with his real ability, and would never bother with women.
But he protects his own people. If you really annoy him, he won't give face to anyone. In his mind, any man who can't protect his wife and parents is a coward.
"Cousin, my wife said something wrong."
"I apologized to my cousin's wife on her behalf."
When Zhou Yuze (eldest cousin) saw Zhou Yuheng’s angry face, he quickly stood up and apologized on behalf of his wife. Zhou Yuheng looked at him coldly.
Chen Xiangyan was so scared when she saw Zhou Yuheng's cold face that she didn't dare to look up. Zhou Yuheng was not a talkative person.
Zhou Yuheng had some happy events during this period, so he was naturally more tolerant towards the people and things around him. However, because of this tolerance, some people almost forgot his original temper and methods.
Zhou Yuze tapped his wife's hand. Chen Xiangyan raised her head quickly. When she saw the hostility in Zhou Yuheng's eyes, she was so scared that she trembled even when she spoke.
"Cousin, cousin...I'm sorry."
"Well, next time, cousin, please mind your own business."
Xu Qingluo didn't bother to pay attention to her. She hadn't even returned home after getting married when Chen Xiangyan gave her a warning in public. If she was considerate and gave her a cold shoulder, she would deserve to be bullied.
Chen Xiangyan was speechless because of her words, and could only respond sullenly: "I know, cousin, I am meddling in other people's business."
Xu Qingluo touched Zhou Yuheng's little finger under the table, and Zhou Yuheng's hostility was reduced a little. Then he wrapped her hand in his own and placed it on his thigh.
There was a smile in Xu Qingluo's eyes, and she felt completely safe in her heart. This man... was really reliable.
Grandpa Zhou glanced at Zhou Yuheng, and seeing that his anger was instantly calmed down by Xu Qingluo, there was a hint of smile in his eyes.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was a bit awkward. Zhou Yu looked at Aunt Zhou, who didn't look very happy. She was irritated by Chen Xiangyan's stupidity.
Zhou Li raised his glass and comforted Aunt Zhou for a few words: "Sister-in-law, it's nothing for the younger generations to be frivolous and arrogant."
Zhou Li gave Aunt Zhou a way out. Aunt Zhou took a deep breath and curled her lips: "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, sister-in-law."
Zhou Ersun was not comforted by Zhou Li. She had never seen such a stupid person in her life. She had warned her eldest daughter-in-law in the kitchen.
But in the blink of an eye, her eldest daughter-in-law forgot her instructions and no one knew who had eaten her brain!
Uncle Zhou also offered a glass of wine to Zhou's father apologetically. Zhou's father smiled and the situation calmed down a little. He didn't care about the quarrels between the younger generations. After all, every family has conflicts.
