People in the alley: A woman dressed as a man shouldn't be foolishly filial, Zhuang Chaoying

Xiaoting and Tunan sat at the dining table, looking at the table full of delicious food, and were extremely excited. This time they could eat meat to their heart's content.

Huang Ling ate quite a lot, and Zhuang Chaoying kept putting food on her plate.

Huang Ling swallowed the rib in her mouth: "Chao Ying, after you finish eating, go to Grandpa and Grandma's."

Zhuang Chaoying nodded: "Okay, we'll be back after we finish our New Year's Eve dinner."

When Xiaoting heard that she was going to her grandparents' house, she pouted somewhat reluctantly.

Seeing this, Tu Nan quickly touched his little sister's face: "Xiao Ting, with your brother here, don't be afraid that Grandpa and Grandma won't eat you. I'll stay by your side!"

As he spoke, he clasped his hands together, showing off his arms. "Look at my muscles, rock hard."

Xiaoting curiously pinched her brother's arm; it was indeed quite sturdy.

Zhuang Chaoying looked at Tu Nan and nodded in satisfaction. He's starting to look like an older brother. This kid had better keep it up, or his father's fists will be even harder!

Huang Ling stood in front of the wardrobe, looking at herself in her red wool coat. "Chao Ying, do you think it's okay for me to wear this to my parents' house?"

Zhuang Chaoying walked over with the scarf. "How could it not be good? It's perfect! My Ah Ling looks so good in bright colors, it makes her face look so fair. Isn't that right, Tu Nan, Xiao Ting? Doesn't Mommy look beautiful?"

Tu Nan and Xiao Ting also stood beside her, looking at Huang Ling in the mirror with Chao Ying.

"Mom, you look so good in this wool coat."

Tu Nan nodded. "It looks good, Mom. Dad was right, you suit red clothes!"

Huang Ling covered her mouth and laughed happily. "Really?"

"Really!" After saying that, he took the scarf in his hand and wrapped it around Ah Ling's neck.

Zhuang Chaoying looked at A Ling, whose pitiful appearance made her want to take a bite out of her if there weren't children watching.

The family put on cotton-padded coats, scarves, and hats, fully armed, and carried two cans of food and a box of pastries as they headed towards their grandparents' house.

,,,,,,,,,,

Zhuang Chaoying's loud voice rang out in the courtyard. "Mom and Dad, we're back!"

Inside the house, the beautiful wife was kneading glutinous rice balls when she heard the sudden shout. Her hand trembled involuntarily, and the filling almost spilled out.

She looked up at Ganmei, her voice tinged with reproach: "Brother Ganmei is here, go and greet him!"

Gan Mei was sitting to the side leisurely eating sunflower seeds. Upon hearing this, she reluctantly got up, dragged her feet to the door, and put on a smiling face: "Big brother, sister-in-law is here. Tu Nan and Xiao Ting, come in quickly."

Zhuang Chaoying strode into the house, nodded slightly to Gan Mei, then placed the things she was carrying on the table and raised her voice: "Mom and Dad, I bought canned food and some snacks. Don't forget to eat them!"

Father Zhuang frowned, thinking that Chao Ying had always spoken softly before, so why was she suddenly so loud? Even if the neighbors didn't go out, they could probably hear her clearly. "Chao Ying, can't you speak a little softer?"

Hearing the commotion, Mrs. Zhuang hurriedly came out from the inner room with a smile on her face. She pulled Tu Nan and Xiao Ting over and said, "My dears, you're finally here! Tu Nan, Zhen Dong, and Zhen Bei have some questions they don't understand. Can you explain them to your younger brothers?"

Huang Ling then went into the house as well.

The beautiful wife's eyes were immediately drawn to Huang Ling's coat. This coat was nice; she had seen it in a department store before. It was a pure wool coat, and the price was probably equivalent to half a year's salary for her.

The woman, her voice tinged with envy, said, "Sister-in-law, your coat looks really nice!"

Huang Ling smiled, tilting her head slightly with a hint of pride: "Your older brother bought this for me. I didn't want him to buy it, but he secretly bought it anyway. Mom, find me an apron, I'll help my sister-in-law make glutinous rice balls."

Mrs. Zhuang responded, turned around, grabbed an apron, and handed it over, but couldn't help muttering, "Ah Ling, this isn't how you live. You can't spend money like this when you're making a living."

Seeing this, Zhuang Chaoying quickly walked over, gently took the apron, and skillfully tied it around her waist. "Ah Ling, you sit down, I'll wrap it! Don't get such a pretty dress dirty!"

When the beautiful wife saw this, she became even angrier.

She thought to herself, "My older brother not only earns more money than me, but he also dotes on his wife so much. Why am I not so lucky to marry a man like him?"

As she was thinking, she turned her head and glared fiercely at Ganmei, who was lying on the bed doing nothing.

Zhuang Chaoying skillfully prepared the glutinous rice balls: "Mom, if you ask me, don't be stingy with your food and drinks. There's a saying, 'If you die with money left over, how frustrating would that be?'"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhuang became so angry that her face turned red. Without saying a word, she went straight into the inner room and sat down with the old man, muttering to herself.

The beautiful wife looked at her older brother, who was fiddling with leather, and said with a glint in her eye, "Brother, your family is doing better now. Look at your sister-in-law's clothes, they must be expensive. Mom wants to buy a radio. Brother, could you spare some money to buy a radio for Mom and Dad?"

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Chaoying stopped what she was doing, stared directly at her beautiful daughter-in-law, and said slowly, "Mom and Dad, don't you two know what you do with your monthly pension? How dare you ask me for it!"

The woman who was trying to win the beauty was speechless for a moment, her face turning pale and then red, but she didn't know how to refute it.

The Zhuang family's parents were in the inner room, carefully listening to the sounds outside.

The beautiful woman forced an awkward smile. "Brother, I was just saying. If things are really difficult for you, then don't worry about it. We'll figure something out ourselves!"

Inside the house, Zhuang's father stomped his feet in anger, lowering his voice: "What a misfortune for our family! We've married such an unfilial daughter-in-law, she's corrupted Chaoying!"

Mrs. Zhuang quickly reached out and took Mr. Zhuang's hand: "Stop talking! Let's have a nice New Year's Eve dinner!"

With Zhuang Chaoying protecting her this time, the situation changed, and the one doing the work became the beautiful wife.

"Xiaoting! Bring the glutinous rice balls up!" the beautiful wife called out.

Xiaoting tried to lift it, but immediately recoiled from the heat. "Auntie, I can't lift it, it's too hot!"

The woman, impatient, picked it up and handed it over. "Why can't you hold it? Take it."

Xiaoting looked at her. "Auntie, I already said it's too hot to handle. If it falls on the ground, none of us will have anything to eat."

The beautiful wife looked at Xiaoting; this child was just like her parents, not easily fooled.

When Zhuang Tunan returned from the bathroom, he saw Xiaoting standing in the kitchen. "Xiaoting, come here. What are you doing in the kitchen? Why don't you go play with Zhendong and Zhenbei? If you stay here, Grandma and Auntie will definitely order you around."

Xiaoting pouted. "My aunt just asked me to carry the glutinous rice balls, but they were so hot, I wasn't going to take them."

Tu Nan touched his younger sister's cheek, then led Xiao Ting and placed her in Huang Ling's arms. "Mom, keep an eye on Xiao Ting."

Huang Ling sat next to Chao Ying, holding Xiao Ting in her arms, smiling as she waited for Tangyuan.

The beautiful young woman came in carrying a bowl of glutinous rice balls. "The glutinous rice balls are ready!"

This time, we set up two tables, and the children ate at the smaller table.

Looking at this scene, Zhuang Chaoying thought of the birthday banquet. If small tables could be set up, why couldn't they be placed on the main table during the birthday banquet?

They clearly thought they were easy to bully, but things are different now.

This time he took a tough stance and sat at the head table; he just needs to be taught a lesson!

Huang Ling enjoyed her New Year's Eve dinner immensely, a faint smile always on her face.

it's dark.

Zhuang Chaoying stood up. "Tu Nan Xiaoting, it's time to go home!"

Mrs. Zhuang hurriedly tried to persuade her to stay. "Chaoying, why don't you stay here for the night and leave tomorrow?"

"Mom, there's no room for our family here, let's go home!"

Father Zhuang suddenly stood up and stormed out. "Chaoying, is this still your home? Are you still a member of the Zhuang family? Why can't you stay here for one night! Look at other families, aren't they all staying up together to celebrate the New Year!"

Mrs. Zhuang quickly pulled Mr. Zhuang aside, signaling him to be quiet.

Zhuang Chaoying smiled calmly. "Mom and Dad, is it so hard for everyone to have a peaceful New Year? I brought my wife and kids back for the New Year, what more do you want? If you keep acting like this, I won't come again!"

Zhuang's father was so angry at these words that he trembled all over and stomped his feet as he went into the house.

Zhuang Chaoying led his wife and children out of the courtyard and onto the street.

[Ding! The progress of managing the dealers is 90% complete!]
