From that day on, Bai Youyou's life became very leisurely.

As soon as the wake-up call sounded in the morning, I got up with Sheng Zeyan to make breakfast. After Sheng Zeyan finished eating and left, I cleaned up the house, closed the door, and went downstairs to the family building to chat about gossip with the sisters-in-law. This chat took most of the day.

If Sheng Zeyan comes home for lunch, she will go home and cook for him based on the time.

If Sheng Zeyan told her before leaving in the morning that he would not be home for lunch, then she would have lunch and chat with her at Wang Yan's house.

She waited until the afternoon before slowly returning home to cook for Sheng Zeyan.

During this period, her relationship with Wang Yan increased exponentially, to the point where they could talk about anything, and Wang Yan was Bai Youyou's first friend in the staff housing complex.

It’s a nice time to chat about gossip and drink tea with friends.

This went on for a week, and during that week, she had basically heard all the gossip in the family building.

Even if Xiao Ba didn't tell her about the melon, she still ate a lot of it.

On this Friday morning, Bai Youyou, who had originally made an appointment with several sisters-in-law in the staff dormitory to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things, did not bring any bags, so she asked her sisters-in-law to wait for her to go home and get the bags.

When she picked up the bag and returned to the family building, she saw downstairs that her sisters-in-law who were waiting for her were talking to a girl in a khaki dress.

When she walked forward, she heard the voice of a sister-in-law.

"Hey, Xiaoli! You're here in the staff quarters to see your sister again!"

The girl named Xiaoli replied:

"Yes! Yes sister-in-law, are you going somewhere? I see you are all carrying bags."

It was the sister-in-law who asked the question earlier who answered:

"Oh! This! We are going to the supply and marketing cooperative. Do you want to come with us?"

"Sisters-in-law, I won't go. You guys go by yourselves! But I see the sisters-in-law standing here. Are they waiting for someone?"

"Yes! We are waiting for Captain Sheng's daughter-in-law. She went home to get the bag.

Here she comes."

Bai Youyou clearly felt that when the woman heard the sister-in-law say that she was waiting for Sheng Zeyan's wife, she paused very obviously, and then when she heard her coming, she turned around and stared at her with her eyes.

The look in her eyes made Bai Youyou feel very uncomfortable.

After Bai Youyou approached and was introduced by Wang Yan, she finally understood why the woman looked at her like that.

As soon as Bai Youyou arrived, Wang Yan whispered in her ear who the woman named Xiaoli was.

"Youyou, her name is Zhang Li, she's Zhang Ping's sister. Do you know who Zhang Ping is? She's the one you don't get along with.

She has always wanted to marry your Captain Sheng. You better be careful later."

Before Bai Youyou could reply to Wang Yan, she heard Xiaoli coming up to her and greeting her.

"Hello, are you Brother Sheng's wife?"

Since they have come to say hello, there is no reason not to reply!

"Yes, hello."

"My name is Zhang Li. I'm a teacher at a primary school in the city. Where are you from?"

Bai Youyou looked at the woman with her nose in the air and said calmly:

"Sheng Zeyan and I are from the same place."

After hearing Bai Youyou's answer, Zhang Li looked at her in surprise and said:

"Oh! So that's it! Then you are from the country, ah! Sorry, I don't mean to discriminate against country people, I'm just expressing my feelings. After all, I thought that a man as outstanding as Brother Sheng would at least marry someone who has a job in the city.

After all, he is so outstanding. If he finds a wife who is nothing, that would be bad. After all, if the two are too different, they won’t be together for long. Don’t you think so, sister-in-law?

This time, not only Bai Youyou understood the meaning of her words, but even the sisters-in-law standing here also understood what she meant.

Sisters-in-law, you look at me, I look at you without saying anything. Her words made Wang Yan, who was standing next to Bai Youyou, want to step forward and argue with her.

Bai Youyou, sensing her intention, grabbed her hand, shook his head at her, and signaled her not to worry about it. He then stepped forward and spoke:

"Thank you, sister, for thinking so highly of our Sheng Zeyan. In fact, I know that our Sheng Zeyan is very outstanding without your sister telling me."

Bai Youyou paused and then continued:

“Because of his excellence, I believe his vision is also excellent.

Since he chose me, it means that I am the best. He must have seen my strengths and married me.

As for background and work, these are external things. When a couple lives together, what matters more is treating each other sincerely.

Not as compatible as some people think, don’t you think, sister?

Actually, I feel a little guilty when I call you sister, after all, I am younger than you. But you call Sheng Zeyan brother, so it’s not too much for me to call you sister!

After all, Sheng Zeyan and I are husband and wife."

Bai Youyou's words stunned everyone around her, because they couldn't understand why Bai Youyou, who had a good personality, could be so powerful when she argued with others.

And she didn't curse like those shrews in the street. She cursed without using any dirty words in her words.

This made Bai Youyou more powerful in the eyes of those sisters-in-law.

When Zhang Li heard her words, a trace of embarrassment flashed across her face, but she still said with determination:

"But what can you bring to Brother Sheng, sister-in-law? You can't help him with his career, and you don't have the knowledge and work of the city people. Even now you are supported by Brother Sheng. What do you have to make Brother Sheng like you?"

Bai Youyou laughed angrily when he heard this:

"I can give him a warm home. No matter how tired he is outside, there will always be hot meals and hot tea when he returns home, and there will be someone who is devoted to him.

No matter how prosperous this world is, in the end, all men want is this.

Although I come from the countryside, I have simple qualities and I am not like some people who only talk big.

Also, isn't the man's job to support his wife? If a woman has to support her husband after getting married, why would she marry him?

My dear sister, how do you become a teacher? How can you say such things? Ask the sisters-in-law around you. It is the men who work hard outside to support the family, while the women stay at home to be filial to their parents, love their children, and support everything in the family.

People's leaders have said that women hold up half the sky. You are discriminating against all the hard work women have put into their families.

Sister, I have my doubts about whether you can teach the children well in school. Please don’t teach them bad things.”

Bai Youyou's words made Zhang Li's face turn redder and whiter. Just as she was about to speak again, her sisters-in-law who had been watching the fun from the side took over.

"Xiao Li, what did you mean by that just now? You mean that those of us who don't have jobs and city hukou are not worthy of being supported by men."

"Xiao Li, you are too bad at speaking."

"Oh, some people! They claim to be city people and teachers, so they look down on us who come from the countryside. If you look down on country people, why do you keep pestering Captain Sheng? Captain Sheng is also from the countryside."

"City people! I think they're even worse than us country folk. At least we have a sense of shame and won't do such a persistent thing."

"That's right. Your family looks down on country people, but your sister still married a country girl."

"You're still trying to get your hands on Captain Ren Sheng! You're not as pretty as me, but you're really ambitious!"

Bai Youyou's words completely infuriated Zhang Li. All of a sudden, the sisters-in-law, who had been enjoying the show, started to criticize her directly.

Just when Zhang Li was speechless, her sister Zhang Ping appeared.

As soon as Zhang Ping appeared, Zhang Li looked at her with tears in her eyes, with an expression as if she had suffered great injustice.

Zhang Ping was unhappy when she saw her sister like this, but she still smiled and said to everyone:

"My dear sisters-in-law, please calm down. My sister is young and naive. She said something wrong. I apologize to you all on her behalf."

Everyone snorted, but didn't say anything else. After all, they all lived in the same residential building and saw each other every day, so it didn't want to make things too awkward.

Zhang Ping turned around and tried to pull Zhang Li away, but Zhang Li broke free and pointed at Bai Youyou, saying angrily, "Just wait for me. I'll remember this."

Bai Youyou smiled calmly: "I'm always at your service."

After the two walked away, a sister-in-law gave Bai Youyou a thumbs up:

"Youyou, you're really amazing. Zhang Li is always so arrogant and looks down on us country people. But today she got a lesson. Let's see if she dares to look down on us again in the future."

Bai Youyou shook her head gently: "I didn't mean to make things like this, but what she said was really unpleasant to hear."

Wang Yan on the side spoke up, "Alright! Let's go quickly, otherwise if we get there too late the supply and marketing cooperative will run out of good stuff."

After hearing this, the sisters-in-law started walking away, saying as they walked:

"You have to hurry up. If you go too late, you won't be able to buy fresh meat. I went too late once again and couldn't even buy the meat scraps."

Bai Youyou and Wang Yan smiled at each other and followed.

But halfway through the walk, Bai Youyou remembered that she had forgotten something.

[Xiao Ba, did I forget to tell my husband that Zhang Ping and her family are spies?]

【It seems to be the host. 】

[Alas, I was saying that when I had an argument with that person named Zhang Li, I felt weird and always felt like I had forgotten something.

Now that I remember it, I will go home and tell Sheng Zeyan to arrest them all and see if she still wants to covet my husband.

Let her never come to the family compound again.]

Thinking of this, Bai Youyou's mood, which had just been affected by Zhang Li, instantly recovered.
