Chapter 683 - 684: Talking About Trivial Family Matters
"That’s great then! I just wonder if your mother-in-law will agree. If she doesn’t, don’t argue with her. I appreciate your kind gesture."
According to what Yang Jinling just said about her mother-in-law, I could tell that she is not easy to get along with. I don’t want to cause any trouble between Yang Jinling and her family because of me.
Hearing this, Yang Jinling laughed and said, "No problem, let me share a secret with you. I dare not say this about others, but if it’s your family, my mother-in-law will surely agree. Your family has a good reputation in our village and town, I know my mother-in-law best."
She didn’t finish her sentence, but they all understood her meaning. It seems that her mother-in-law is quite pragmatic and knowing that Yang Jinling could get attached to such a wealthy family like yours, she wouldn’t object.
"If that’s the case, that’s good. Come often from now on, just say you’re here to see me."
"That’s a fantastic idea. You are full of bright ideas." Yang Jinling laughed. This strategy is indeed good. She can visit her family more often in the future.
"Hmm..." Yang Chuxia thought for a moment and asked, "Is your husband good to you?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Jinling initially blushed, but nodded, "My husband is very good."
"As long as he is good, after all, your husband is the one to spend your life with."
"Yes, I know."
Yang Jinxiu, listening to the conversation between the two, laughed, "Big sister, Xiaxia seems to understand things even better than you do."
"Xiaxia, exactly." Yang Jinling, somewhat envious, said, "It’s because she understands that she’s blessed. In the past, many people in the village didn’t like Brother An, but only Xiaxia saw the good in him. Now, see how good Brother An treats Xiaxia. When they get married in the future, they will have none of those annoying problems and life will be really comfy."
Yang Jinxiu also said, "Absolutely! She won’t need to serve her in-laws, just serve her husband. I bet in the future, Brother An will be the one serving you."
"Exactly, exactly!"
The two sisters chatted away, laughing and forgetting about Ms. Li Junior in the room.
Ms. Li Junior was odd indeed. Others would have left by now, but she insisted on staying, waiting to see what dowry Yang Chuxia will give.
But Yang Chuxia didn’t show anything, which made Ms. Li Junior’s face fall.
When she heard Yang Jinxiu envying Yang Chuxia for not having to serve her in-laws, she couldn’t help but put in her own piece, "Jinxiu, your thinking isn’t right. It’s a woman’s duty to serve her in-laws. Listening to you, it sounds like you’re not willing to. This won’t do. I’m going to tell your mother-in-law. If your mother doesn’t teach you manners, it’s time for your mother-in-law to do so."
Yang Jinxiu and Yang Jinling were immediately enraged by her words, but they held their tongues because they didn’t want to upset their aunt.
"You really are a great aunt!" Yang Chuxia couldn’t stand her anymore and said, "They say that when a woman marries, she becomes part of her husband’s family and should always consider their interest. But you, after being married for so many years, you still think about your own family. Technically, Jinxiu is your husband’s niece, you don’t have to favor her, but to purposely slander Jinxiu in front of her mother-in-law, that’s really shameless."
After being reminded by Yang Chuxia, Yang Jinling also realized, "Exactly, when has Jinxiu ever said she’s not willing to serve her in-laws? Aunt, if you’re having a problem with your hearing, you should go get it checked."
"You...!"
Ms. Li Junior obviously didn’t dare to confront Yang Chuxia, but she was not scared of Yang Jinling, she retorted, "How dare you insult me! Wait till I tell your parents, to see how they’ve taught you. No wonder your mother-in-law doesn’t like you."
