She's managing on her own now; the most important thing is to take care of herself.

In my niece-in-law's words, it's like... oh, better to die than to die, my fellow Daoist.

Their wives ran away, what does that have to do with her, their mother?

Anyway, it won't interfere with her eating three meals a day.

Zhong Meixian had already quietly shrunk herself into the size of a quail.

It's over. The fact that they married a wicked wife can no longer be kept secret.

Who can find someone like this?

Not only does she not do housework or cook, but she also constantly threatens to hit her husband and verbally abuse her mother-in-law...

Good heavens, the ancestral grave has bad feng shui!

While Zhong Meixian was inwardly groaning, Gu Yanli spoke up, "Let's go home. It's getting late, and your older sister and the others will be back for dinner soon."

Zhong Meixian quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, it's getting late, time to go home and cook."

After she stood up, she glanced at Wen Tang, who was still sitting there, and said, "Tang, go back." She spoke in a gentle tone, without any of the sternness of a mother-in-law, and in a tone of negotiation. There was no trace of the mother-in-law's authority, which made Wang Ying unable to help but glance at her.

Zhong Meixian: Oh dear, forget about everything else, let's just coax this little devil back home first! Who knows what shocking things she might say later!

That would be a truly humiliating situation!

Although she seemed a bit pathetic at that moment.

Sigh, I'm getting old, so be it if I'm pathetic!

Otherwise, you won't find peace even after you die.

After all, Wen Tang was the kind of person who made the shocking statement of scattering ashes into a stinking ditch.

Wen Tang glanced at the man who was calling her home, then at her mother-in-law who was waiting for her, and decided not to sit any longer.

Instead, she pulled Chi Yue to her feet and said, "Then, Auntie, and the three sisters-in-law, we'll head back now."

"Come back another day."

Xu Ancheng was standing at the kitchen door when he heard this, and he almost dropped the winnowing basket in his hand.

Again?

If he keeps coming, I'm afraid his wife really won't want to live with him anymore.

As they were leaving, Gu Jin hurriedly went inside to retrieve the eggs they had brought. "I'll take the radishes and duck eggs, but you can take these eggs back and keep them..." Gu Jin looked at Gu Yanli, Wen Tang, and Chi Yue, and added, "Give them to the children; I won't get any."

Before Gu Jin could even finish speaking, and before Zhong Meixian could even reply, Wen Tang spoke up again, "Why can't we eat it?"

"Auntie, you cook one in the morning and add one to noodles in the evening, but it's still not enough to eat, is it?"

Gu Jin couldn't help but laugh when she heard this, but there was still a bitter taste in her mouth. "I've had three children, and I've never eaten like this during my postpartum period!"

Zhong Meixian then pressed her hand down and said, "You've never eaten this before, but you can eat it now."

"Who says you have to eat eggs during postpartum confinement? We'll eat them if we have them."

Wen Tang and Chi Yue both nodded.

They both felt that Zhong Meixian had become more open-minded by spending so much time with them.

Seeing that Gu Jin was still a little embarrassed to stay, Zhong Meixian said again, "No, wait until next spring when you raise chickens, then you can return them to me."

Gu Jin thought about it and agreed.

There's no need to argue over these ten eggs; it makes us seem like outsiders.

"Okay, I'll take the eggs then." She said, glancing back at the small house behind her. "I can't invite you to stay for a meal."

Zhong Meixian waved her hand and said, "Hey, we're not outsiders, why are you saying that?"

"If you have time, come to our house and have a meal together. It's the same thing."

Gu Jin nodded and did not try to keep them any longer.

Wang Ying and the others accompanied the person to the outside of the courtyard gate.

Xu Ancheng carried the winnowing basket at the very back, not daring to show too much of his face.

Fearing to show his face, Wen Tang immediately killed him.

He Lianlian, who lives next door, also dared not show her face.

He Lianlian was sitting in the yard picking vegetables when she saw Wen Tang and the others coming out of Xu Ancheng's yard, so she quickly picked up a small stool and hid in the kitchen.

Her daughter-in-law couldn't help but ask, "Mom, you're sitting in the kitchen, and you'll have to sweep up the vegetable leaves later."

He Lianlian immediately retorted irritably, "You don't need to sweep, stop worrying about it."

Her daughter-in-law pursed her lips and stopped talking.

Wen Tang and the others didn't pay attention to He Lianlian and were unaware of these things.

However, as soon as Wen Tang returned to the Gu family, Gu Yanli dragged her back to her room.

Pressing her against the door, Gu Yanli gently stroked Wen Tang's moist lips with his fingertips and asked in a low voice, "Have you been looking for too few husbands?"

"What kind of people are you looking for the other ones?" he asked with a gentle smile. If you could ignore the dangerous tone in his voice, it would indeed sound like casual conversation.

Then Wen Tang said something sarcastic again, “There are 360 ​​professions, and every profession can produce a groom, and every one of them is a fine young man of eighteen.”

"I..." She wanted to say it, so she said it, just to vent her frustration.

But Gu Yanli really let her have her fill of talking.

Just before dinner, Chi Yue saw her and asked without blinking, "Girl, have you been eating ever since you got back?"

"Wow, you two can really eat a lot!"

"Tsk tsk, this is really something..." Chi Yue moved closer and closer.

"Cough cough..."

Chi Yue quickly shrank back.

Turning around, there was no one behind him except Gu Yanli, who was sitting at a table in the main room.

The chicken stewed for lunch was made by Zhong Meixian at Gu Yanli's request, to help Wen Tang recover.

It was stewed over a wood-fired stove, and the pheasant was stewed until the meat was tender and the chicken soup was delicious.

Gu Yanli dared to put both the chicken's two legs into Wen Tang's bowl.

Wen Tang quickly gave one to Chi Yue.

Chi Yue happily munched on the food.

She was also taken care of by her best friend and her husband.

Yeah, her best friend was caught by her boyfriend, so she was just there to freeload off him.

Gu Yanli divided the chicken legs and then gave the two chicken wings to her mother and eldest sister, saying, "Eating chicken wings shows skill."

Zhong Meixian "..."

At her age, what would she need such skillful hands for?

His wife is young, why doesn't he let her use her skillful hands?

As if knowing what she was thinking, Gu Yanli added, "In the future, you'll be the one taking care of our grandchildren and doing all the sewing and mending. You're skillful, so your daughter-in-law won't dislike you."

Zhong Meixian "..."

Fortunately, Wen Tang still knew to comfort her, "Mom, don't listen to his nonsense."

Before Zhong Meixian could even feel happy, Wen Tang said with a smile, "What do you mean by patching and mending? We're not living in the old days anymore. Nowadays, children are the darlings of the family. Mom, you'll definitely prepare new ones for your precious grandson and granddaughter, right?"

Zhong Meixian: Okay, okay, you're a girl who knows how to comfort people, but I advise you not to.

Wen Tang was not only good at comforting people, but also filial.

She even picked up a chicken leg from the bowl and said, "Mom, can you have this chicken leg?"

"I won't eat..."

She had barely uttered the words "I don't want to eat" when Wen Tang took a bite of the chicken leg and said in a muffled voice, "I knew Mom loved me the most and couldn't bear to see me suffer."

"Thank you, Mom. I'll eat the chicken leg for you. Mmm, it's delicious."

Chi Yue also looked at Gu Jinfeng, who waved her hand repeatedly.

Chi Yue smiled and said, "Mom loves me too."

Gu Jinfeng: How could she not be in pain?

Everyone else is in pain, but she isn't. Isn't she just asking to be scolded?

After eating the chicken and drinking the chicken soup, Wen Tang no longer felt any stomach pain, so she continued to sit in the courtyard with Chi Yue, eating melon seeds and chatting.

We hadn't been chatting for long when that annoying guy showed up again.

"Auntie, are you home?"
