The little drama queen is both capricious and naughty, but her military officer husband insists on s

Zhang Guihua had just reached the door of the room when she heard her mother's words and turned back.

Her voice was weak: "Mom, don't say anymore. Even if she's banished to the cold palace, I probably won't get a chance to take her place."

Aunt Zhang turned around: "What do you mean by that? Weren't you very confident before? Why have you changed your mind now? Have you changed your mind?"

Aunt Zhang was delighted to see her daughter change her mind.

Her daughter is perfectly capable, so why does she have to become someone's stepmother?

She refused to believe she couldn't find a son-in-law who was just as eligible as Lu Yanxun.

Before Zhang Guihua could answer, Aunt Zhang said with a smile, "Guihua, if you really understand, Mom will find someone to arrange it for you today."

"No," Zhang Guihua said with a droopy face, "It's not Su Xinyue. She still can't forget Yan Xun and is waiting for him to divorce Jiang Zao and marry her!"

After saying that, Zhang Guihua turned and went into the house.

"what?"

Aunt Zhang was stunned.

She quickly caught up with her daughter and pressed, "You mean, that girl Xiaoyue actually wants to be Yanxun's child's stepmother?"

“Absolutely.” Zhang Guihua said irritably, “She just asked me to keep an eye on Yan Xun’s every move at the gate. She made her point out all of this.”

"Besides, she came back specifically for Yan Xun. You have no idea what she did at the Lu family this morning!"

"What did she do?" Aunt Zhang asked.

Zhang Guihua told her mother about how Su Xinyue was staying at the Lu family home and they couldn't get rid of her.

Aunt Zhang frowned frequently.

After listening, she looked disgusted and said, "Oh my, how can this person be like this? How can she be so shameless? I never knew she was that kind of person before."

Zhang Guihua spat and said, "She's always been that kind of person, you just didn't know it."

Aunt Zhang didn't care who Su Xinyue was; she only cared whether her daughter had come to her senses.

Aunt Zhang slapped her thigh and said, "In that case, Mom will start arranging blind dates for you today."

"Mom!" Zhang Guihua grabbed Aunt Zhang's arm. "I never said I was going to give up on Yan Xun."

"You still..." Aunt Zhang took a breath, feeling a bit disappointed in Zhang Guihua, "You're such a stubborn person!"

Zhang Guihua looked determined: "But I just like Brother Yanxun. I don't like anyone else. Don't try to arrange anything for me. Even if you do, I won't go to see him."

Aunt Zhang was furious: "You think you can beat Su Xinyue?"

It wasn't that Aunt Zhang was trying to boost Su Xinyue's morale or diminish her own daughter's prestige.

Having competed with the Su family for so long, there's one thing she has to admit: no matter how you compare them, her Guihua is still inferior to Su Xinyue.

Not only is her daughter Guihua not as pretty as Su Xinyue, but Su Xinyue is also a graduate of a prestigious university.

If her osmanthus really tries to compete with Su Xinyue, she will likely end up losing miserably.

"Mom, do you look down on me that much?" Zhang Guihua glared at her mother.

Seeing her daughter getting anxious, Aunt Zhang quickly softened her tone: "It's not that I look down on you, I just think that she came prepared this time, why do you have to argue with her?"

"I'm going to fight her!" Zhang Guihua shouted angrily at Aunt Zhang, "I've never been able to beat her since I was a child. I was the one who met Brother Yanxun first, but later everyone only recognized her as Brother Yanxun's childhood sweetheart. In other people's eyes, I'm just their follower!"

“But this time I don’t want to be a follower anymore, I’m going to fight her!” Zhang Guihua started to cry. “Mom, you don’t need to persuade me anymore, I won’t listen to you! If you had proposed to Aunt Lu earlier, there wouldn’t have been this Jiang Zao thing!”

"It all comes down to your procrastination!"

Zhang Guihua angrily threw down her last words and ran into the house crying.

Aunt Zhang was stunned for a long time before she reacted.

"Didn't you say there was no rush? Why are you blaming me now?"

After Aunt Zhang finished speaking, Zhang Guihua responded from inside the house with a sob in her voice.

"It's your fault!"

"Fine, fine, it's my fault, it's all my fault! I owe the Zhang family something!"

Aunt Zhang was so angry with Zhang Guihua that her heart ached, but she still called her to eat: "Come out and wash your hands and eat!"

Zhang Guihua cried even louder: "I won't eat! I might as well starve to death!"

Aunt Zhang's temple veins throbbed: "The older the child gets, the more disobedient he becomes. What terrible things have I done to deserve this!"

He entered the kitchen, gritting his teeth and muttering to himself.

The Zhang family, mother and daughter, are at loggerheads, while the Lu family, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, are enjoying a harmonious relationship.

At the dinner table, Su Xiufen offered to make some new clothes for Jiang Zao to wear during the changing season.

Actually, Su Xiufen mentioned it a few times when Jiang Zao's belly was getting bigger, but Jiang Zao refused each time.

At that time, Jiang Zao not only rejected Su Xiufen's kindness, but also made a lot of sarcastic remarks to her.

The gist of it is that if you're so capable, then go find Lu Yanxun; don't try to fob her off with those half-hearted, insignificant gestures of goodwill.

However, Lu Yanxun's mission was rather special, and Su Xiufen simply couldn't get him to come back sooner.

For the sake of family harmony, Su Xiufen even threatened Lu Mingrui, asking him to find a way to transfer their son back.

The couple had a cold war in private, but it never came to a head.

As Jiangzao's belly grew bigger each day, her temper became increasingly irritable.

Su Xiufen didn't dare mention these things in front of her anymore.

She simply prepared three meals a day as usual. Jiang Zao could come out to eat whenever she wanted, and if she didn't want to, her two daughters would bring the food into the house for her.

Looking back, Su Xiufen felt that the past six months since Lu Yanxun left home had been even more stifling for her than when she and Lu Mingrui were separated.

But she could understand Jiang Zao's grievances, so even when she was so angry that she had headaches and insomnia, she never held it against her.

Now things are much better; the son is back, and the daughter-in-law has stopped causing trouble.

There was hope for the future.

As soon as Su Xiufen mentioned that she wanted to make new clothes for Jiang Zao, Lu Yanting immediately chimed in, "Mom, make new clothes for me and my sister too."

Su Xiufen quickly glanced at Jiang Zao's expression, then sternly reprimanded her youngest daughter:

"Your sister-in-law hasn't said anything yet, why are you getting involved?"

Lu Yanting pouted: "I'm not just joining in the fun. My sister-in-law is about to give birth, right? On the day she gives birth, my sister and I will wear new clothes to meet our little nephew and niece. It's our first time being an aunt, so of course we have to dress up nicely."

"Right, sis?" Lu Yanting turned to look at Lu Yanwei and winked at her.

Without her sister giving her a meaningful look, Lu Yanwei knew that what she said this time was right.

Lu Yanwei nodded: "Yes."

Lu Yanting then turned to look at Jiang Zao: "Right, sister-in-law?"

The whole family's eyes turned to Jiang Zao once again.

With so many eyes staring at her, Jiang Zao felt a little shy.

She felt quite embarrassed being so much attention from so many people.

“You two sisters are the child’s aunts. No matter what you wear, the child will love you. But if the younger sister wants to wear new clothes, I’ll pay for them to be made for you. Make a couple more outfits for you to change into.”

Jiang Zao spoke gently, and her attitude was even somewhat ingratiating.

They're counting on their sister-in-law to help take care of the kids in the future, so they have to take this opportunity to curry favor with her.

Besides, they'll be a real family from now on, so it's only right for her, as the sister-in-law, to make some new clothes for her sister-in-law as a gift.

I'll also make up for the emotional damage the original owner caused them over the past few months.

Sitting to the side, Lu Yanxun glanced at Jiang Zao's rosy smiling face and barely suppressed smile, and couldn't help but fall into thought.

Why is this woman acting so strangely today?

Is he looking for another opportunity to cause trouble?

Does she still want to run away?
