After the female supporting character in the quick transmigration series realized her mistakes

Chapter 104, Section 90: The White Moonlight Can Only Be Admired from Afar (36)

They couldn't bear to see their daughter suffer in her husband's family. After all, their daughter didn't grow up eating a single grain of rice from their family, so there was no need for her to compromise herself to accommodate his family.

Which parents would want their daughter to be bossed around as soon as she marries into her husband's family?

Seeing that he spoke logically and persuasively, Mr. Wen nodded in agreement.

Seeing that everyone had finished chatting and the two children had rested, Grandma Wen quickly changed the subject, saying, "Alright, that's enough for now. Let's eat quickly, or the food will get cold."

Mrs. Wen also came to her senses: "Oh, right, right, Xiao Jin, you haven't eaten much all day, you must be starving, go wash your hands and eat."

Zheng Jin smiled and agreed, "Okay."

As she spoke, Wen's mother went to the large pot in the kitchen and took out two dishes that had already been cooked and were still warming in the pot.

Wenyi followed her mother like a little tail, asking curiously, "Mom, what delicious food did you make today?"

"These are just some simple home-style dishes. Zheng Jin often comes to help out, and we don't have any good dishes to offer him. We feel a bit embarrassed."

Today, Wen's mother made a plate of stir-fried cured pork with houttuynia cordata, boiled cured sausage, stir-fried potato slices, pickled cabbage and beans, and a plate of cold cucumber salad.

Normally, this would be considered quite a feast. If it were just for family, pickled cabbage, beans, rice, and potato chips would be enough for a meal.

Upon seeing the dishes, Wen Yi exclaimed in surprise, "These are just home-cooked meals? You actually brought out all the food you had at home to treat him!"

Mrs. Wen rolled her eyes at her, "These are all grown by our own family. What else could they be but home-cooked vegetables? These are all vegetables we have at home."

"Hurry up and bring the dishes to the table."

"Oh, okay."

After washing his hands, Zheng Jin hurried over to lend a hand. At the dinner table, Wen's mother kept putting food on Zheng Jin's plate and kept urging him to eat more.

Zheng Jin looked at the meat and vegetables on the table, which were almost all put into his bowl, and quickly said, "That's enough, that's enough."

……

When Zheng Jin returned to the Zheng family home, his mother was still awake. Seeing Zheng Jin's smug expression, she became angry.

She said sourly, "Oh, so my son wants to become someone's live-in son-in-law? How come he still has time to come back? I think you treat this place like a hotel, coming back whenever you want and not coming back whenever you don't want to."

It was pitch black when such a sound suddenly came, startling Zheng Jin.

"Mom, why don't you turn on the lights at home? You're scaring me."

"Why would I turn on the light? Electricity doesn't cost money, does it? You make so much money, why haven't you paid my electricity bill?"

Seeing that he was truly frightened, Zheng's mother softened her tone slightly, but she was still fuming; she hadn't even finished tending to her own land yet!

Her only son at home is always running away from home. How can she not be angry?

“You’ve been going to the Wen family to be a dutiful son every day. How’s it going? Have you gained anything? Don’t end up with nothing to show for it.”

When this is mentioned, Zheng Jin becomes very proud, his mouth practically stretching to his ears.

He said smugly, "Mom, don't worry, there's nothing I can't do. Hehe, I've already settled things with Uncle Wen and Aunt Wen tonight. You just need to pick a good day to propose marriage to me."

Looking at his simple and honest appearance, Zheng's mother didn't even bother to glance at him.

“Look around the village, and the next village, there are so many beautiful girls, why did you choose Wen Yi from the Wen family? She’s just pretty, but can being pretty put food on the table? Besides, she’s divorced. What are you thinking?”

Zheng's mother was both angry and anxious, but she had already said everything she needed to say.

Seeing his mother start nagging again, Zheng Jin quickly interrupted, "Mom, please stop nagging. You've said this before. I've already explained it to you, I like her."

"No matter how good other girls are, if they're not the ones I like, I won't be happy. I never intended to get married. It's only now that Wen Yi is my marriage partner that I'm thinking about getting married. Otherwise, would I be thinking about it?"

“If I don’t get married, and my brother doesn’t get married either, how can you hold your head up in the village? My brother is already in his thirties, and I’m in my twenties. If neither of us gets married, just think how serious the consequences will be.”

"Don't you think you should thank Wenyi properly? She's the one who made me willingly get married, so you can hold your head high in the village now."

Zheng's mother had only said one sentence when her son rattled off a long string of words. She couldn't help but wonder, when did this boy become so eloquent?

In the end, I actually had to thank Wen Yi? My son likes second-marriage hairstyles, how can I stand up straight?

"What should I thank her for? For getting a divorce? Or for marrying you after the divorce?"

Mother Zheng was even more furious and waved her hand impatiently: "Don't make things worse for me. I'm not going to take care of you anymore. You're the one who has to live your life. I'm not going to live with you."

She rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'm going to sleep. You're keeping me from sleeping. I get annoyed just looking at you."

Zheng Jin said ingratiatingly, "Hey Mom, go to sleep now and get a good night's rest. Remember to go with Dad tomorrow to find someone to help you choose an auspicious day to propose marriage to the Wen family."

As Zheng's mother left, she thought to herself: With a troublesome son like you, how can I possibly sleep well?

When Zheng's father saw his wife storm into the room, he asked her, "Weren't you waiting for Xiaojin? Why are you so angry?"

“He just got back and told me to find someone tomorrow to find an auspicious day so we can propose marriage to him. Ugh! I’m so angry at his spineless attitude.”

Although Zheng's father knew that his wife was not happy about their youngest son marrying the Wen family girl, he thought that his son really liked her, so they could accept it.

"It's up to them to live their lives from now on. Whether things turn out well or badly is their choice, so don't worry about it. We just need to live our own lives."

Zheng's mother felt a headache whenever she thought about her two sons' marriages, so she simply stopped caring.

"Well, that's true, but it's impossible not to have any thoughts at all."

“My son is good-looking and rich. It’s just that his love life isn’t going well, but that’s his own choice, so he can live it however he wants.”

Remembering her son's instructions, Zheng's mother said, "Tomorrow, go find Uncle Zhang Jian and ask him to choose an auspicious day to get Xiao Jin's matter settled."

Mr. Zheng agreed and urged Mrs. Zheng to go to sleep, as there were still many things to do tomorrow.

Just as Zheng's father was about to fall asleep, he heard his wife say, "Tomorrow when you go to see Uncle Zhang Jian, remember to bring those apples from home. Apples are rare here; they're a special fruit. Bringing them will make you look presentable. Also, give Uncle Zhang Jian a 12-yuan red envelope. That should be enough to make a good gift."

Mr. Zheng mumbled a response, still half-asleep.

Zheng's mother saw that Zheng's father was carefree and just like his son. He was never in a hurry when something happened at home, and she had to take care of everything.
