After marrying a scientific research tycoon, I retired early and won
Chapter 20 Does He Have Too Little Homework?
Mother Fu has always had a good reputation outside and is a generous and kind person.
Once, Yuecheng was hit by a flood and Ji Ning was trapped at home. She was so hungry that she lay on the bed, with black and white flashes in front of her eyes, and she could faint at any time.
"Mom..." She called Mother Fu weakly.
Fu's mother came in and looked at her, then looked at the neighbor who was standing at the door full of energy, and finally used the little food left in the house to help the neighbor.
Moreover, as long as any relative asked to borrow money, she would never refuse, all for the sake of gaining a good reputation, and she didn't care how hard her family was living.
So at that time, people outside said that she had such a good mother-in-law, but she didn't know how to cherish her. Her mother-in-law treated outsiders so well, how could she be bad to her family?
But they were exactly wrong.
"Auntie." Ji Ning slightly curved the corners of her lips.
Mother Fu's eyes fell on Ji Ning. This girl was dressed elegantly and appropriately.
In comparison, Ji Wei was dressed inappropriately.
On the day of returning home, she actually wore clothes that Ji Ning didn't want? Was her brain eaten by a pig?
Mother Fu's cheeks felt a burning pain, and she said in a deep voice, "Ji Wei, go back and change your clothes. Didn't Mom buy you a set of clothes?"
Ji Wei was stunned, eyes full of disbelief, "Mom..."
Didn’t she dislike Ji Ning’s extravagance in the past?
She used to wear Ji Ning's clothes, and Fu's mother praised her for saving money. Why did she want her to go back and change clothes now?
Besides, where does she get new clothes?
Because the three turns and one ring that should have belonged to her was snatched away by Ji Ning, she used the dozens of dollars she had saved over the years to surrender to Fu's mother.
Fu's mother didn't buy it for her, and she didn't have the money to buy it.
"Go quickly!"
Ji Wei had to leave reluctantly.
Mother Fu pulled Ji Ning aside to talk, and even placed her palm on the back of her hand affectionately, but Ji Ning only felt nauseous and her scalp tingled.
Mother Fu used to like Ji Wei, but she hated her because she thought of her as an imaginary enemy who had taken her son away from her.
And now that Ji Wei is a family member, he naturally hates Ji Wei.
Unfortunately, Ji Wei didn't understand this principle.
Ji Ning recalled some of the heinous behaviors of Fu's mother in her previous life, and her chest still felt a little suffocated.
She would open her door directly at night, and would also ask in a roundabout way early in the morning how much gold and jade other daughters-in-law bought for their mother-in-law.
Looking at the kindness of Fu's mother in front of her, she felt that Fu's mother in front of her was like an evil spirit covered with a false shell.
She tried to pull her hand out, but Mother Fu's rough old hand with a silver ring held her tighter, "Ji Ning, you married into the Zhou family, what did you buy?"
Sure enough, some topics cannot be avoided.
Ji Ning never intended to suppress Ji Wei. As long as Ji Wei didn't provoke her, she could live in peace with her.
If Fu's mother is not satisfied with the answer she gets when she asks this, she will definitely cause trouble for her mother.
At this moment, a gentle yet strong force came from my arm.
Zhou Jingmo pulled Ji Ning's hand back and placed his palm against hers. The girl's skin was delicate and smooth, and her palm was as soft as a cat's cushion.
Ji Ning looked at him in surprise. The man's hands were large and slender, and slightly cooler than hers.
She felt a little uncomfortable and the temperature on her cheeks rose slightly, but this was at least much better than having her hand held by Fu's mother.
Zhou Jingmo held her hand naturally, as if it was something they did every now and then. But in fact, it was only the first time he held her hand. He glanced at Fu's mother and asked, "My mother gave Ji Ning a piece of Hetian jade. What did this aunt give Ji Wei?"
Fu's mother froze immediately, with a smile on her face. She didn't know whether to accept it or not, so she ended the question in a huff.
After Fu's mother left, Ji Ning looked down at their hands, but Zhou Jingmo let go of her quickly.
Ji Ning's voice was as thin as a mosquito, "Thank you."
Zhou Jingmo glanced at her and said, "We are in the same boat, why are you being so formal?"
His mother always treated everyone equally. When a sister and a brother fought, if one of them kicked the other, the other would definitely be slapped. If one of them scolded her twice, the other could never just scold her once.
Never favor one over another.
So he never had the same troubles as Ji Ning.
But just seeing Ji Ning's mother's attitude, I felt a little uncomfortable.
I helped her purely out of a desire to see justice done to her.
“Sister! Sister!! Sister!!!” The voice came before the person came in.
A young man came in hurriedly, his feet looking as if they were equipped with wheels.
He had obviously run back, his hair was still wet and stuck to his forehead.
As soon as he entered the door, he raised his head and looked around. In a few seconds, he locked his target. It was the most beautiful and eye-catching figure. His eyes suddenly became moist, "Sister, I miss you so much!"
As soon as he walked over, he pushed aside Zhou Jingmo who was standing close to Ji Ning, opened his arms and was about to hug Ji Ning.
Suddenly, he felt a force on the back of his collar, and he was surprised to find that he seemed to be slightly lifted up.
No...it's not like...
He was forced to stand on tiptoe and move slowly to the side. By the time he reacted, he was already some distance away from Ji Ning.
He hasn't been mentioned since he was in third grade.
Ji Ning was also stunned. Lu Xing was a tall man of 1.80 meters, but Zhou Jingmo actually lifted him up like a chicken. He was really good!
I recalled the last night when I saw him holding Tongtong in one arm and bouncing her up easily and freely. He really has that arm strength.
Lu Xing's voice was vague, "Sister, are you doing well? Why didn't you come home to see me for so long?"
He had a pitiful face and a tall stature, but looked like an abandoned Alaskan dog.
Only after Ji Ning comforted him with a few words did he calm down.
But when Ji Ning went to the inner room, he went to the inner room; when Ji Ning went to the kitchen, he went to the kitchen.
Zhou Jingmo lowered his voice and asked, "How old is your brother?"
"Thirteen."
“Does he have too little homework?”
Ji Ning smiled perfunctorily twice.
There was a large table of people for this meal. The dishes were served in many plates, and the aroma of oil filled the air.
There were chicken, fish and meat. In order to entertain her daughter and son-in-law, Chu Hong used up all of her food coupons for half a month.
Lu Xing was in the growing period and got hungry quickly. When he saw meat, his eyes almost turned green.
This is comparable to the Chinese New Year.
Fu Tao and Ji Wei were the first to use their chopsticks, but Lu Xing held the chopsticks but did not move, "Mom, why is it braised pork? Isn't braised pork belly my favorite?"
"Your sister loves to eat braised pork."
Chu Hong was a little slow to react and realized that the "sister" Lu Xing was talking about was Ji Ning.
When she looked up and met Ji Ning's gaze, she smiled uncomfortably, "There are only a few meat tickets left at home, only enough to make one dish. I thought that Ji Ning would marry into the Zhou family, and there would be an auntie who would cook, so she would definitely be able to eat braised lion's head often."
Ji Wei's lips curved, "Thank you, mom. You still love me."
She had eavesdropped on Ji Ning's phone call to her mother, in which she said in a coquettish manner that she wanted to eat braised lion's head and was very craving for it.
In fact, she didn't really want to eat the braised pork, which was fatty and greasy. It was just this morning when her mother was going out to buy groceries that she mentioned it, saying that when she was living with her father in the countryside, she hadn't eaten meat for half a year at most. The most delicious thing she remembered was the half piece of braised pork given to her by the neighbor aunt.
What mother can stand this?
So when her mother came back with the bag, she deliberately took a look and found that it was pork belly with a mixture of fat and lean meat.
She knew she won.
