Famine Bride: Marry into the best in-laws and win

The old lady rolled her eyes and said, "It's natural that I should touch the things my son sent back first."

"You have no sense at all. I, your mother-in-law, haven't even made a move yet, and you've already made one."

"Whose daughter-in-law is like you?"

Mrs. Shen smiled awkwardly and quickly withdrew her hand, "Mom, I won't touch it. I will be more careful next time."

She was a little stupid, but she could also hear that the old lady was scolding her.

Boss Shen raised his hand and wiped his face, it was simply too painful to watch.

He was so unlucky to marry such a stupid, evil woman.

All she does is cause trouble and embarrass him every day.

The old lady waved towards Xu Manyue and said, "Third wife, you come and open this package."

Xu Manyue nodded, "Okay, mother."

She walked over and opened the package. Inside was a large bag of dried black fungus, a can of malted milk, a few pieces of salted fish, some dried vegetables, and vermicelli.

There aren't many things, but they are all extremely practical.

In this year of famine, nothing is more substantial than food.

And this can of malted milk is not cheap and hard to buy. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell who it is for.

Everyone in the Shen family was just envious, but no one wanted to take the can of malted milk, including Mrs. Shen, who was the greediest. She just swallowed her saliva and didn't take any other action.

The old lady's eyes instantly turned red, and she choked with sobs, "Third brother, this is because he is thinking about our family."

"He's in such a dangerous situation outside, and no one knows what's happening to him, but he's always thinking about home."

Xu Manyue took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears, "Mom, don't cry. Jingming didn't send the things back because he wanted to see you cry."

At this time, things are not going well everywhere, even the army is not doing much better.

It was indeed not easy for Shen Jingming to send food back.

Moreover, he not only sent food, but also ten dollars and some food coupons. The amount of food coupons was not much, less than ten kilograms, but it was already very good.

In addition to the things he sent home, Shen Jingming also sent a separate one to Xu Manyue, which included money, tickets and a package.

Mrs. Shen secretly glanced at the small package next to Xu Manyue several times. She couldn't help but feel itchy and wanted to open it and take a look right now.

So she tugged at Lin Luoxia's sleeve and whispered beside her, "Second sister-in-law, look, look at the package that the third brother sent to the third sister-in-law. I just weighed it, it's very heavy. Maybe there are good things inside."

Lin Luoxia instantly understood what she was planning. She followed Mrs. Shen's gaze and saw that although the package was much smaller, it looked bulging, so it must be filled with a lot of things.

No wonder my sister-in-law is so jealous.

If it were her, she would also want to take a look.

But she still knows what to do and what not to do.

Lin Luoxia smiled helplessly, "Sister-in-law, that was sent back by Jingming to his wife, not for the family."

Mrs. Shen curled her lips and said nothing more.

Yes, she is different from them. Her husband is an officer and she is an officer's wife.

Jingming has been smart and capable since he was young. Maybe he can climb even higher in the future. From now on, she will not be the same kind of person as them.

With Xu Manyue's comfort, the old lady's mood gradually calmed down.

She waved her hand and said, "Okay, all of you can go away. The third daughter-in-law will stay and help me put these things away."

Mrs. Shen's eyes turned, and she ran to the table and hugged the wood ear vermicelli and the most expensive malted milk in her arms.

"Mom, you don't love me anymore. I was the one you loved to call the most before. Look at how thin your third sister-in-law is. Why don't I help you?"

"From now on, I'll help you and your third sister-in-law share the burden, so you two can have an easier time."

"Third sister-in-law, don't you think so?"

She had long been thinking about where the grain was hidden in the house, but unfortunately, the mother-in-law only told the third daughter-in-law in the whole family, and no one else knew.

Even when it was her turn to cook, the third daughter-in-law would take out the food first and then give it to her two sisters-in-law to cook.

Xu Manyue glanced at the old lady, then looked at Mrs. Shen, and finally took back the wood ear vermicelli and the can of malted milk from her.

"Sister-in-law, I'm here for you. You're pregnant now, so it's not convenient for you."

We can't let anyone know where the food is stored at home, especially since Mrs. Shen is so talkative. If someone accidentally tricks her into revealing the information, it will be a big trouble.

Seeing that Mrs. Shen wanted to say something, the old lady waved her hand impatiently, "Why don't you get out now? If you don't, I'll call the eldest brother in and have him tell you to get out."

Don't think she doesn't know what the eldest daughter-in-law is planning.

She only knew about the little food in the house. If she really knew about it, the family would be broken up.

Mrs. Shen looked unhappy, but she knew the old lady's temper, so she could only leave first.

After others leave.

Xu Manyue was just about to take these things to the old lady's room and hide them.

But the old lady stopped him, "Don't be anxious, third daughter-in-law. Go to the house and boil some hot water and bring out two bowls."

"Today, we, the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, will also try the taste of the exquisite things from the city."

Xu Manyue was stunned for a moment, then turned around and saw that the other party had already opened the lid of the malted milk.

She nodded, went to the kitchen to get two bowls, and boiled some hot water.

The old lady scooped two large spoonfuls into each of the two bowls. The aroma of the malted milk had already given off a faint sweet fragrance before it even soaked.

"Before you got married, Jingming would send a can of malted milk to our house from time to time. He said it was a good thing and the best for nourishing the body, so he sent it back so that I could have more nourishment."

"But I think you are the one who needs to be nourished in the whole family, Third Wife. Why don't you gain some weight?"

The old lady looked Xu Manyue up and down and couldn't help but ask.

She had inquired carefully about the affairs of the third daughter-in-law in the Xu family. The child was filial and often saved half of her food rations for the old couple in the Xu family.

But the Xu family is shameless. They eat the food saved by other people, treat their other granddaughter so well, and subsidize other children privately, and specifically bully honest people.

Look, at that time, in the entire Xu family, only the third daughter-in-law was starving to the point of looking unrecognizable; Xu Mingyue's face even looked a lot rosier.

When these two stand together, the first person anyone with a discerning eye sees is naturally Xu Mingyue.

Now that the third son's wife has married into the family, the food we eat every day is gradually becoming better than the wild vegetable porridge and soup we used to eat in the canteen.

In order to nourish her daughter-in-law well, she always gave her more food rations.

Although this person looked much better than before, he still didn't seem to have gained much weight.
