Best friends transmigrate into a book! They marry a high-ranking official! If you run, I run too!

Gu Yanli did not answer her question, but glanced at Gu Xiaohua, the third sister of the Gu family behind her, and Lin Jingshen, who was pushing a bicycle, and only said, "Mom is lying in the house."

Gu Yinfeng was mainly there to mediate the fight. After hearing Gu Yanli's words, she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and try to persuade her."

"The new bride has just entered the family, isn't it embarrassing to make such a scene?" Once the topic was changed, she forgot why the new bride wasn't doing any work, but her younger brother was.

Gu Yinfeng rushed into Zhong Meixian's house.

Gu Xiaohua patted her trouser leg and said, "Then I'll go see my older sister."

When Gu Yinfeng entered, Zhong Meixian hadn't even finished her porridge.

After Gu Juyuan and Lin Liansheng went to the fields, Gu Yanli washed the dishes and first delivered food to Gu Jinfeng. Lin Jingshen also went out.

Faced with the food her younger brother brought, Gu Jinfeng felt very embarrassed. "No...no need to bring it, I...I'm not hungry."

Gu Yanli didn't say anything, but simply put down the porridge and eggs. "I'll collect the bowls in a bit," he said.

Gu Jinfeng felt even more embarrassed. "No need for you to accept it, no need for you to accept it. I'll wash it and take it to the kitchen in a bit..."

Gu Yanli didn't say much, just nodded, and said as he was leaving, "Don't hold it against Mom."

Hearing this, Gu Jinfeng's eyes reddened. She was embarrassed and aggrieved. "Who would argue with her every day? If we argued with her every day, we couldn't live."

"Hmm," Gu Yanli responded with a soft "hmm" in response.

Gu Jinfeng felt relieved.

She knew it was her mother who was being unreasonable.

See, everyone can understand it!

After giving gifts to Gu Jinfeng, Gu Yanli then gave gifts to Zhong Meixian.

When Zhong Meixian saw him bring the food, she wasn't embarrassed, but rather asked disapprovingly, "You're cooking again?"

Gu Yanli grunted in agreement and put the food down.

Zhong Meixian kept saying, "Can't you let your wife do it?"

"I can't get up," Gu Yanli said honestly.

Zhong Meixian disagreed with the statement, "If you can't get up, why don't you call out?"

"Look at any other family's wife, how could she be so lazy?"

Gu Yanli repeated his previous statement: "Get up and earn work points?"

Zhong Meixian infuriated him. "Earn work points, earn work points! But even if you don't earn work points, you can't sleep like this!"

"Hmm, shall we sleep outside?"

Zhong Meixian "..."

As soon as Gu Yanli said this, Zhong Meixian smacked him on the arm. Zhong Meixian was so angry that her face turned red. "You're such a grown man, how can you be so sarcastic?"

"Do you ever talk like that?"

"Sleep outside?"

Does this sound like a serious statement?

Gu Yanli nodded as well.

Zhong Meixian raised her hand and slapped him again.

Then Zhong Meixian saw what kind of food Gu Yanli had served her.

"Eggs again?"

Zhong Meixian slapped her thighs with both hands, looking as if the sky was about to fall. "God, are you planning to give up on life?"

"Who can afford to eat eggs twice a day, one for each person?"

What about Chinese New Year?

"Are you going to eat all the eggs I've saved up?"

Gu Yanli wasn't guilty at all. "I cook, so why can't I decide what to cook?"

Zhong Meixian "..."

She had already made up her mind that she would not let her son cook lunch, no matter what; who knows what kind of feast he would make!

Gu Yanli didn't say much. He wasn't a talkative person to begin with. When Zhong Meixian stopped talking, he simply said, "I'll collect the bowls in a bit."

Zhong Meixian was so angry that she ignored him and didn't say anything about not needing to come and collect the dishes.

She was so angry that she didn't even want to eat.

But looking at the egg, she didn't eat it; she felt even angrier.

Everyone can have fun, so why can't she?

Eat it, it's a waste not to eat it, and if you eat it, it's not a waste to eat it.

So when Gu Yinfeng arrived, she hadn't finished her breakfast yet, and was a little delayed because she was angry.

Upon seeing Gu Yinfeng enter, Zhong Meixian frowned. "What brings you here?"

"Did you quarrel with your older sister again?" Gu Yinfeng asked, taking the initiative.

Mentioning this, Zhong Meixian lost all interest in the little bit of porridge left in her bowl.

But not wanting to waste food, Zhong Meixian still finished the porridge in one gulp.

After finishing her porridge, Zhong Meixian snorted and turned her face away.

Gu Yinfeng moved closer and sat on the edge of the bed, asking, "Why?"

Inside Gu Jinfeng's room, Gu Xiaohua was also asking her older sister, "The new bride has only been in the house for a day, how could she be arguing with Mother?"

Gu Xiaohua should have kept quiet, because once she did, Gu Jinfeng got really angry. "It's all because of her! She's always been so competitive and ambitious. It's one thing for her to compete with others, but she's even trying to compete with me!"

Then Gu Jinfeng recounted the whole story without taking a breath, which showed just how angry she was.

After hearing this, Gu Xiaohua only focused on one point: "So you and your mother each gave your new wife another hundred?"

"And our mother even lost a pair of silver bracelets?"

Gu Jinfeng blinked. She hadn't said it aloud, but now that Gu Xiaohua was saying it, it didn't seem like that at all.

Gu Xiaohua gave a thumbs up again, "You and our mother are also..." Gu Xiaohua looked speechless, "It's a good thing you and our mother aren't completely stupid, why didn't you two empty your pockets and give them all away?"

Gu Jinfeng's eyes flickered, still embarrassed, "Well... wasn't that because I was angry?"

Gu Xiaohua still gave herself a thumbs up, "Big sister, are you angry right now?"

"I'm angry, but you can give me some money. I don't need much, just twenty will do."

Gu Jinfeng immediately scoffed, "Go away, go away, you're making fun of me."

Gu Xiaohua shrugged. "You and Mom have both lived for decades, how come you're still being manipulated by a young man?"

To control?

Gu Jinfeng thought about it and realized she hadn't quite figured it out!

Inside the Gu family's house, Zhong Meixian heard her second daughter ask a question and recounted the whole story. Then, seeking her daughter's support, she asked, "Do you think she's just looking for trouble?"

"I'm perfectly fine, what's wrong with me giving your sister-in-law a pair of silver bracelets?"

"The Gu family only has one son, your brother. If they don't give these things to the two of them, who else can they give them to?"

"dont you agree?"

Gu Yinfeng nodded, feeling that it seemed to be a good idea. "Yes, she's a daughter-in-law of the Gu family now. She'll give you your grandson in the future. You can give him to her. There's nothing wrong with that."

Zhong Meixian felt relieved and was willing to face her second daughter directly. "Right? I knew she was a stubborn bear. She's always trying to make me angry. I was right about her."

"And you still say it's my fault!"

"Then I'll give my daughter-in-law a pair of silver bracelets. My daughter-in-law is lucky, isn't that a fact?"

"She said I was competing with her, but how is that competing?"

“That’s the truth, isn’t it!” the old lady said matter-of-factly.

Gu Yinfeng "..."

"You gave your sister-in-law a pair of silver bracelets, what did she say?"

“She’s lucky, she made the right choice marrying into our family,” Zhong Meixian said, chin held high, still very proud.

Gu Yinfeng: "...Was my eldest sister and her daughter-in-law also there at the time?"
