Chapter 135: The Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law Battle
Qin Jinlian had just entered the village when she ran into a woman from the same village, who teased her with a smile, "Jinlian, you and Lizhen must have coordinated this, right? No sooner had she returned than you came back."
Heard that Yang Lizhen had come back, Qin Jinlian’s heart skipped a beat. She stood and chatted with the woman for quite a while before heading home, unruffled.
Upon entering the door, Yang Lizhen, carrying a basin of dirty laundry, headed towards the well. Seeing Jinlian, she called out indifferently, "Mom," and then continued toward the well.
Qin Jinlian watched her for a moment before turning and going back inside the house.
Hearing the door close, Yang Lizhen glanced towards the eastern room and sneered.
After finishing the laundry and drenched in sweat, Yang Lizhen prepared to go back to her room to cool off with a fan and lie down, but suddenly the door of the eastern room opened.
Qin Jinlian stood at the doorway and ordered her, "It’s noon already, go cook."
Yang Lizhen looked incredulous, "Why should I be the one to cook?"
"Why? Go ask around and see, which family doesn’t have the daughter-in-law do the cooking? What, are you too precious to cook? Are you the daughter of a wealthy family or nobility?"
Yang Lizhen, having been spoiled by Qin Jinlian, couldn’t accept it when her attitude suddenly shifted, as Qin Jinlian got tough on her and tried to establish rules.
