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

Chapter 36 Digging Wild Vegetables

Xu Manyue bit her lip and blinked, "Isn't it mother who makes the decisions in our family?"

"I always listen to my mother."

She looks like an obedient daughter-in-law.

The old lady was so moved that she looked at Xu Manyue with loving eyes.

"Ding, the old lady is kind to her obedient third daughter-in-law. Transformation value +20, which can be exchanged for two kilograms of corn stubble."

Mrs. Shen's face darkened instantly, and she quickly said, "Mom, whatever you want to do with the fourth child, I have no objection."

She knew that the third daughter-in-law was not a good person and was trying to steal her mother.

Boss Shen looked at his wife as if she were a fool.

She is already thirty years old and still so stupid. He is embarrassed to say that this is his wife.

Xu Manyue received ten transformation points from the old lady.

She changed the subject, "But, mother, I think I still have to do my own things. Second sister-in-law, what do you think?"

The old lady's face froze and she glared at Xu Manyue, but Bai was moved.

It seems that the third son’s wife is not an easy person to deal with either.

Lin Luoxia and Shen Laoer looked at each other and said, "Mom, I agree with my sister-in-law. From now on, let the fourth child clean his clothes and his room by himself."

"My eldest sister-in-law and I are sisters-in-law after all. It's not good for us to always help our younger brother-in-law do these things."

Mrs. Shen opened her mouth and wanted to agree, but when she thought of what she had just said, she felt so regretful that she could only shut her mouth.

Why is my brain so stupid?

Shen Lao Er stood up and said bluntly, "Mom, you can't always favor Lao Si and not care about us at all."

The old lady sighed and looked at Shen Jianping, "Old Four, did you hear that?"

Shen Jianping looked at Xu Manyue with a bit of grievance, and said directly, "It doesn't matter, do whatever you want."

He can wear clothes without washing them, and it won’t affect his sleep if the house is not cleaned. As for work, don’t even think about it. He can just be lazy.

If I had known this earlier, I would not have accompanied my third brother to pick up the bride.

"Ding, lazy brother-in-law is forced to work, transformation value +20."

Xu Manyue looked at the twenty new transformation points and smiled even more gently.

"Fourth brother, I'll dig wild vegetables later, just follow me."

Shen Jianping curled his lips and said nothing.

Oh, she has completely offended him. Don't think that he will forgive her and follow her if she smiles gently.

Soon, it became completely dark.

Everyone divided into several groups and went to secretly dig wild vegetables together.

Xu Manyue, the old lady, and Shen Jianping are a group of three.

When digging wild vegetables.

Xu Manyue waved to Shen Jianping behind her with a smile on her face, "Fourth brother, come here."

Shen Jianping pulled the corner of his mouth, looking reluctant.

If she asked him to go over and he went, it would be so embarrassing.

While thinking this in his heart, he didn't know when he had walked in front of Xu Manyue.

Xu Manyue handed him the basket in her hand and pointed at the wild vegetables on the ground. "I heard from your third brother that you are very capable, especially at digging wild vegetables."

"He also said that you were smart since you were little, and you could learn anything he taught you just by looking at it."

Shen Jianping couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth. "It's just average, actually. Did my third brother really say that?"

Xu Manyue nodded heavily, "Of course, your third brother also said that if I don't know anything, I can ask you for help. He said you know everything."

Shen Jianping was flattered. "What's the big deal? Just come to me if you need anything. Third brother asked me to help you, so I will definitely help you."

Xu Manyue looked at him suspiciously, "Really? But you didn't even want to help dig wild vegetables today. Could it be that your third brother lied to me?"

Shen Jianping instantly got furious and stamped his feet fiercely. "My third brother wouldn't lie to you. It's just digging wild vegetables, what's the big deal? Give me the basket, and I'll dig your share for you too."

Xu Manyue handed over the basket with a smile, "Thank you, fourth brother. When your third brother comes back, I'll ask him to thank you for your help."

When Shen Jianping heard this, he worked even harder to dig wild vegetables, calling her "Third Sister-in-law" all the time.

Xu Manyue was instantly delighted when she heard the system prompt in her mind.

"Ding, the lazy uncle volunteered to help dig wild vegetables. His transformation value is +20, which can be exchanged for one kilogram of white flour. A special reward is a three-kilogram food coupon."

On the other side, the old lady bent down to dig wild vegetables, and her back and waist ached as she dug.

She simply sat on the ground to rest for a while, but unexpectedly, as soon as she sat down, she saw her eldest son following the third son's wife.

When the third wife praised him, he dug more and more vigorously, and gave all the wild vegetables he dug to the third wife. If you didn’t know, you would think she was his mother.

The old lady couldn't bear to watch it any longer.

He got up from the ground and ran over, pulling Shen Jianping's ear. "You big fool, you didn't even know you were sold."

As a mother, she had never asked her son to work like this, nor had she ever ordered him around like this.

He is quite stupid.

Shen Jianping was a little puzzled as to why his mother was so excited, so he took out the wild vegetables he had just dug.

"Mom, you don't know, Third Sister-in-law said the wild vegetables I dug were very good. She also said I was amazing at digging wild vegetables."

"Well, take a look at the wild vegetables I dug. Don't they look better than others?"

The old lady looked down and thought, aren’t these just ordinary wild vegetables? What’s the difference?

She was so angry that her heart ached, but she couldn't hit him or scold him.

What a fool, nothing like her at all.

Xu Manyue came over and took the old lady's arm with a smile, "Mom, look how well our fourth brother is doing digging wild vegetables. In just a short while, he has already dug a basket full of wild vegetables."

"You should praise him."

The old lady glared at Xu Manyue. It was all her fault. She had fooled her old son into this state as soon as he entered the house.

As a mother, she was reluctant to let the fourth child do any work.

Xu Manyue pulled the old lady aside and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Mom, the fourth child is already fifteen or sixteen years old. In the countryside, those who marry early already have children. If he stays in bed all the time, which good girl would be willing to marry him?"

"It's okay if you don't want to discipline him. Leave it to me and I'll discipline him. I'll make sure he changes his lazy habits and becomes an excellent person. I'll also find you a wife and give you a grandson."

The old lady looked suspicious, "Are you kidding me?"

She knew her son's character very well. It was good enough that someone wanted him, so how could she expect him to find a good wife?

Xu Manyue shook her head. "How could I do that? I'm your daughter-in-law and the fourth son's sister-in-law. How could I possibly harm him?"

"Besides, he's already like this, it can't be any worse, it's better for me to take care of him."

The old lady glanced at her silly son who was still busy digging wild vegetables, and thought about it again and again. It was indeed true. He was so stupid that he was sold. No matter how stupid he was, it would be the same.

"Okay, I'll leave him to you. I won't interfere with how you take care of him in the future."

As long as her son is fine, that's enough.
