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

After handing Aunt Wu and her group over to Hong Quan, the old lady turned around and took Xu Manyue back.

Liu Minghua wanted to stop the two of them, but was pulled aside by Mrs. Wu for some analysis, and she had to go with Hong Quan to choose a house and settle down first.

Nowadays, no one is rich, and when it’s time to eat, anyone who has any sense will not go to other people’s homes.

Although the two families have such a relationship, they have never gotten along well and have no feelings for each other.

If you go too far, you probably won't be willing to ask for help from others in the future.

On the way back, it was already dark and we could only grope our way forward.

The old lady sighed, "The daughter of your second aunt today looks quite similar to your eldest sister when she was young. When I looked at her, I thought of your eldest sister again."

"I feel depressed and miserable."

"Ever since your eldest sister passed away, I haven't dreamed of her or your father once. Do you think they blame me?"

When her old man was still alive, he loved Lanhua the most.

If the old man were still alive, he would definitely not want the orchid to fall into that state.

Xu Manyue helped the old lady walk forward. Hearing her say this, she pursed her lips and said, "Mom, don't think so much. Let's go back and finish our meal and have a good sleep."

The old lady sighed again, "These days are so hard, and I don't know when they will end."

"I guess the house is bustling with activity right now."

If the relatives who suddenly appeared were distant relatives, it would be fine if he just ignored them, but these people today were the blood relatives that the old man had been talking about for most of his life.

When the old man died, he was still holding her hand, and kept muttering to Shuisheng, "Brother, I'm sorry, Shuisheng..."

Xu Manyue was silent for a moment.

Uncle Shen's family, who had no news for decades, was found again during this extremely difficult and famine-stricken era.

They have no one to rely on in Qingshan Brigade. It is estimated that the two families will have to visit each other frequently in the future, and troubles are bound to happen.

Fortunately, the old lady was clear-headed. She first took Mrs. Wu and the others to the captain's place and did not let them into the house rashly.

Otherwise, with so many people, the small amount of land at home would not be enough to accommodate them, and there would not be enough food.

When they were almost home, the old lady said again, "By the way, when you see them in the future, just treat them as ordinary relatives. Although the two families are indeed very close in terms of blood, they haven't seen each other for decades. Who knows what they are thinking."

"We will do our best to help where we can, but for some things, they still have to rely on themselves to stand up on their own."

Xu Manyue nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mom. I know what's going on."

In fact, no one in the family welcomed these sudden arrivals of relatives, but because of the relationship between the two families, they couldn't say it directly.

They both entered the house.

The Shen family sat at the dinner table, waiting for the two to come back for dinner. When they saw that no one was following them, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mom, have those people been sent away?" Shen Jianping asked hurriedly.

Every household is short of food now. Although their family is better off, it is not good enough to feed six more mouths.

If his mother really dared to let them move in, he would be the first to disagree.

The old lady rolled her eyes at him and said, "What are those people? They are the wives and children left behind by your uncle. Remember to call them when you see them next time."

"Don't embarrass me and let people say I don't know how to teach children."

Shen Jianping curled his lips, somewhat dissatisfied, and was about to continue speaking.

The old lady glanced at him and he immediately shut his mouth. Okay, okay, he wouldn't say anything.

When the others saw that the old lady had an unclear attitude towards Mrs. Wu, they began to speculate in their hearts.

During the meal, Mr. Shen and Mr. Shen began to test the old lady's thoughts in various ways.

"Mom, Second Aunt and her family have just settled down in our Qingshan Brigade. What should we do if they come to our house to extort money?"

What kind of food can these people who have fled from famine have? They still have to rely on the brigade for relief. But the problem is that the brigade has no food either. They won’t come to them every few days to get free food and drink, right?

If that's the case, it's better not to acknowledge this relationship. Anyway, the old man and second uncle are long gone, and there's no need for the two families to have any contact.

Mrs. Shen nodded quickly, "Mom, my second brother is right. We don't have much food or a place to live. You can't be soft-hearted and let those people in."

"Just by looking at them, I can tell they have bad intentions. One by one, two by two, they have so many thoughts on their minds that they are like hairs on their heads."

"We can't let them succeed."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Xu Manyue and Lin Luoxia again, "Third sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, you two should also say something and persuade mother to stop being confused."

Although the father-in-law who died early and Mrs. Wu's husband were brothers, in this day and age, brothers are not as reliable as a bag of grain.

Lin Luoxia looked at Xu Manyue and nodded, "My sister-in-law and I have the same opinion."

Her daughter could only eat until she was 60% full every day and was still very hungry at night. If those people were really allowed to move in, it would be a question whether she could survive this famine year, let alone eat until she was 60% full.

Both of her sisters-in-law expressed their opinions, and Xu Manyue couldn't remain silent, so she nodded.

The old lady glanced at everyone's expressions and paused.

"Don't worry, I'm not that foolish. But those people are your second uncle's family after all. There's no need for us to go too far. We can just treat them as ordinary relatives from now on."

For the sake of this big family, she was willing to abandon even her own daughter and grandchildren, not to mention these relatives with whom she had no feelings.

Mrs. Shen curled her lips and said, "What ordinary relative? Mother, you are still too soft-hearted. If it were you, I would just pretend that this person doesn't exist. This would save a lot of trouble."

Who knows, will those people come to us shamelessly?

It's so annoying.

The old lady slapped the table and said with a cold face, "Wang Zhaodi, if you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."

"Those people are not outsiders. I am not dead yet. It is not your turn to make the decision in this family."

Mrs. Shen's face turned pale instantly, not daring to breathe, "I know...I know, mother."

She is not thinking about this family.

Mom is too fierce.

Boss Shen tugged at her arm and warned her in a low voice, "Mom has been working so hard these days, you'd better not make her angry. If she gets angry and does something bad, I won't forgive you."

What had he done in his life to deserve such a stupid and hindering wife?

Mrs. Shen bit her lip and said nothing more.
