He listened to his mother in the first half of his life and in the second half of his life. Now that his mother glared at him and told him to eat, he dared not refuse.

But it smelled really good, white rice, braised pork, and stir-fried beef with chili peppers. This was a feast he had never dared to imagine in his life.

The meal was eaten up in no time. Both plates on the table were empty and the rice was finished. The five members of the family were all stuffed.

Yuan Junyao was almost crying. On the second day of her trip to ancient times, she finally had a full meal!

"I'm going to wash the dishes!"

Yuan Junling was about to clear the dishes when Qi Meixiang suddenly said, "Wait."

Several people looked at her in confusion.

Qi Meixiang pointed at the two clean plates and said, "You can't wash these two plates. The bottoms are covered in oil. Let's make some brown rice tomorrow."

Yuan Junyao held her forehead speechlessly, but she had just eaten and didn't want to move, so she let them be.

However, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea were indeed very expensive in ancient times.

Yuan Shisheng echoed, "Right, right, it can't be wasted."

Yuan Junyao originally wanted to get up and stretch her body before continuing to cultivate her inner strength at night, but just as she stood up from the stone bench, Yuan Shisheng said, "Wait a minute, I have something to tell you."

Yuan Junyao's scalp tingled instantly, thinking that he was going to lecture her again.

Yuan Shisheng said: "Jun Yao, even though you have a lot of money now, you still have to spend it sparingly, okay? Just like when you were cooking just now, why did you use so much oil..."

Yuan Junyao covered her ears and quickly left the backyard, muttering to herself: I don’t want to listen, it’s just a turtle chanting sutras.

After returning to the room, she locked the door, then entered the space, took a comfortable shower, changed her clothes, and then came out of the space, sat cross-legged on the bed and began to practice internal strength.

In the backyard, Yuan Shisheng said with a headache: "Jun Yao won't listen to a word I say. If she continues to live like this after returning to her husband's family, they will divorce her sooner or later."

Qi Meixiang said firmly: "Although this child is crazy, she shouldn't be that stupid. If she was like this in her husband's family, her mother-in-law would have complained to me long ago."

Yuan Shisheng was no longer so worried when he heard that. However, it was not good for her to continue like this. He glanced at the main room and said in a low voice:

"I think she really doesn't want to live with Lai Fu anymore. We have to dissuade her from wanting a divorce. It's so nice to be married forever! Isn't it the same for everyone?"

Qi Meixiang nodded and said, "Laifu is a hardworking and capable child, but he is too honest and is completely controlled by his mother.

If Jun Yao can capture his heart, life can still go on. In my opinion, it is better to separate the family. We don't have to worry about being kicked out of the house, and life can still be better.

Junyao can make money now, and Laifu is not bad either. It is more important for the young couple to live a good life than anything else."

Yuan Shisheng sighed and said helplessly: "It's not that simple. The family will not be divided while the parents are still alive. This is the custom here.

If they set an example, their spines would be broken and they would be drowned in spit."

"What should we do? Just let Jun Yao endure this?" Qi Meixiang's eyes turned red with heartache.

Yuan Shisheng said helplessly: "Every family lives like this. Tell her to be smarter, but she can't be so pessimistic. Sooner or later, the hardship will be over and the happiness will come.

I think her mind is not on Lai Fu. If she lives a good life with Lai Fu, Lai Fu will definitely not side with his mother."

"Hmph, didn't I live a good life with you back then? You always listen to your mother and are wary of me, the one sleeping next to you!" Qi Meixiang's tone was full of sarcasm.

Yuan Shisheng said unnaturally: "Why do you always bring up the past..."

Qi Meixiang said angrily, "I'm a daughter-in-law who eventually became a mother-in-law. I don't know how much hardship and humiliation I endured when I was young. If it weren't for these children, I would have died long ago. Now my daughter has to suffer the same hardship..."

At the end of her speech, she couldn't help but choke up twice.

Yuan Shisheng sighed, and after a long while he said, "I wonder when Lai Fu will be able to come and pick up Jun Yao."

Qi Meixiang worriedly asked, "What if he doesn't come?"

"If you don't come, tell Jun Yao to go back by herself! She can only stay at home for two or three days at most."

Qi Meixiang fell silent.

At this time, Zhang Guicai's home.

There was a dim light in the main room. The family was sitting at the table eating, and the atmosphere was a bit depressing.

In the kitchen, Yin Sanniang was still busy. She looked unhappy. The hard work of the past few days had made her not as delicate as before.

Song Chunlan munched on a steamed bun and said, "Laifu, you should go and fetch Yuan Junyao back tomorrow!"

Zhang Laifu couldn't bring himself to say anything, and said impatiently, "Didn't she grow legs and come back on her own? Besides, we didn't chase her away."

Song Chunlan felt a headache when she heard this. Her son was so stubborn. No matter how she tried to persuade him these past two days, he refused to go and pick the girl up. She didn't know what was making him angry.

She regrets it so much now. If she had known that her son was so stupid, she would have stopped saying those provocative words in front of him.

Who would have thought that this silly son would actually become estranged from his wife.

Zhang Laifu ate and said casually: "Brother, you should go and bring your sister-in-law back. It's inevitable that couples don't quarrel. They quarrel at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed. You are a grown man, so you should be more tolerant. Why don't you stop arguing with a woman?"

He usually doesn't like to meddle in these trivial matters, and he doesn't take women seriously.

But last night he was very upset by Yin Sanniang.

As soon as Yuan Junyao left, all the housework was done by Yin Sanniang, and she would annoy him whenever she felt tired.

"Old Second is right, Lai Fu, you should know how to love your own wife. Go and get Jun Yao back home early tomorrow. The chickens at home have laid some eggs recently. Bring four or five eggs with you."

Song Chunlan was mainly thinking that it was not easy to marry a wife.

Her son is so useless. If she can't keep this daughter-in-law, he will definitely be single in the future. Besides, it will cost a lot of money to marry another wife.

Zhang Lai Fu still didn't say anything.

Zhang Laiyan was filled with anger when she thought of Yuan Junyao. She said coldly, "Why go pick her up? She's nothing. A daughter once married is like spilled water. In four or five days at most, her parents will send her back sooner or later."

"Shut up, it's all your fault. If you keep talking nonsense like that, you'll never get married!"

Ever since the last time, Song Chunlan has been displeased with her daughter.

The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. He really has no tact at all. He's so arrogant even though his own mother is here.

Other girls came to her house to propose marriage, and the door was broken down by the people. But no one was interested in her daughter, so she was too embarrassed to go out.

So the more this happened, the more she wanted Zhang Lai Fu to bring Yuan Junyao back.

Otherwise, none of her three children would live a decent life, and she would never be able to face going out again.

Yuan Junyao did her work well and quickly, unlike Yin Sanniang who couldn't do anything right and didn't know what she was busy with all day long. She was clumsy.

As a mother-in-law, she should be enjoying her life, but now she has to do things because she is too busy at home.
