ined up to draw water while asking Li Lao Tai. 。“Aunt, why did the fourth brother run so fast Is something wrong at home” “No, it’s the鏢局 who called him to help.” 。 。Perhaps bandits or robbers came f...As expected, Old Madam Li said next, “During the New Year, Mr. Wen ate his reunion dinner at my house. I asked him why he didn't go home. He said the food at home wasn't good! I was puzzled, how could their cooking be that bad”

"You all came today, weren't you here to learn some cooking skills Haha, that's right! Let me tell you, my daughter-in-law is a descendant of imperial cooks. I'll teach you a few dishes, and you won't have your children running away from home looking for food anymore!"

Madam Wen's face changed color. This wasn't a nice thing to say, and if it spread, the Wen family would lose all face.

But before she could argue, Old Madam Li had already rushed out to call her daughter-in-law into the courtyard, and then immediately ushered them into the Li family courtyard.

Jia Yin looked at the somewhat helpless Wen family mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, being half-pushed into the door. She also smiled and took Mrs. Cui's hand, quickly following up.

No one else knew, but she understood her grandmother's temper best. The old woman must be furious, angered by the Wen family chasing after them here to bully them.

There's definitely a lively scene waiting for us in the back! We mustn't miss it!

As expected, Old Madam Li gave up the main hall in the front courtyard and directly led the Wen family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to a small suite in the back courtyard.

The room wasn't large, so the two maidservants and two female attendants who came with Wen could only stand outside the door.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were politely invited to sit on the kang.

Perhaps they were unaccustomed to each other, their legs twisting awkwardly in different directions.

On the other hand, Old Lady Li sat across from them, legs crossed with ease, and even took out her seldom-used pipe, slowly packing it with tobacco.

She didn't neglect her in-laws either, greeting Grandma He and Shui Ling with tea and refreshments. Then she addressed the elderly Madam Wen: "Judging by appearances, elder sister seems older than me, so I shall call you that."

"Older sister, your daughter-in-law doesn't seem to be good at housework. Has she ever cooked before What kind of dishes does older sister like to eat usually Older sister is getting older, so it's best to eat light food!"

Mrs. Wen's face flushed when she heard her being called "elder sister" by the young woman.

What she disliked most in the world was people saying she was old. To delay the appearance of wrinkles on her face, she spared no effort.

She was her dowry maid, and even now she still calls her "Miss"!

To her surprise, when she arrived at the Li family, she heard five or six old men speaking one after another. Her heart felt like it was pierced again and again by a knife, creating countless holes in it.

If it weren't for her son, she wouldn't come to this wretched place and wouldn't suffer this indignity!

But thinking of her son, Old Mrs. Wen pulled out her handkerchief and started to cry, “Big sister, you don’t know, how hard it is for me… You said during the New Year, the second child had such a big fight with his father, he ran out, and wouldn’t even eat dinner at home.”

"As a mother, I'm caught between my son and husband. It breaks my heart to see them at odds. I wish I could just disappear with the wind, find a quiet place where I could escape all this pain..."

Li Laotai was originally going to light her pipe, but when Wen Lao Fu ren cried like that, she almost forgot what she was supposed to do.

Is this person made of water How come he cries so easily!

Those tears kept falling in a steady stream, not at all feigned, she was crying with genuine emotion.

If someone didn't know the full story, they would probably think that Li family had really wronged her.

Looking again, Madam Wen hung her head and seemed to be listening passively.

Li Laotai frowned.

No wonder they could force Jinerou to run here to hide, these methods are really novel and unique...

Mrs. Cui sat behind the old woman, holding Jia Yin in her arms and biting her lips tightly, feeling both angry and helpless.

She was soaked by the tears of this kind old Mrs. Wen for five or six days straight.

She knew as clearly as a mirror in her heart that the Wen family disapproved of her relationship with her senior brother, but her senior brother was too determined. The Wen family had no choice but to come to her, hoping she would take the initiative to withdraw.

And she chose to have open and honest conversations, causing this elderly lady to cry in front of her every day.

She didn't say she opposed their marriage, she just talked about how difficult it is to be a mother.

This is the master brother's mother, his future mother-in-law. She cannot be beaten or scolded; she can only endure it, enduring until she almost vomits blood...

Jia Yin leaned against Shi Gu's leg, touching her own double chin, and also felt that this Wen family was really not likeable.

A soft knife stabs someone without leaving a trace of blood, yet it's crueler than a hard knife!

But whether it's the mistress or their own family, they are all a little hesitant.

They all have to be mindful of Mr. Wen, not knowing how Grandma will handle it...

Li Laotai listened for a long time, her heart had a rough idea, and she motioned her daughter-in-law forward, whispering a few words.

Tao Hongying had been unhappy for a long time, her eyes seemed to pierce the Wens' wives and daughters-in-law countless times.

Whose life isn't filled with joy and laughter This Wen family, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, are simply acting like they have water in their brains. They just run to other people's homes crying and wailing, it's such bad luck.

Upon hearing her mother-in-law's instructions, her eyes lit up and she immediately went out.

Old Li leisurely lit her pipe and took a few strong puffs, exhaling thick clouds of blue smoke. In a short while, the room was rather smoky.

Mrs. Wen cried wholeheartedly, just as she was about to sob, she choked.

Li Laotai quickly smiled and said, "Elder sister, you cry yours, I smoke mine, no delay! I'm still listening anxiously here, how did Mr. Wen come

"Yes, refusing to marry after reaching the age of thirty, you continue..."

She looked like she was watching a play at its climax, anxious and impatient. This took the edge off Lady Wen's anger, and she swapped out the damp handkerchief in her hand, secretly looking towards her eldest daughter-in-law.

Lady Wen cursed her mother-in-law secretly for being useless, then said, "Mother, we've been bothering you for a while now, it's really impolite. How about we go with Tongjinrou to her courtyard and have a sit"

Mrs. Li quickly waved her hand, "No, no, my elder sister and I hit it off right away! We haven't even finished our conversation yet, how can we leave Besides, Jiner just returned yesterday, and the house is still in disarray. It's impossible to entertain guests!"

At this point, she seemed to suddenly realize something and said, “Oh my, you wouldn't be嫌棄 our humble abode, would you…”

"No, no, how could it be!" Madam Wen certainly couldn't admit it, and with a smile, she said, "It's just that I was afraid of disturbing Old Madam..."

“How could I possibly be a bother I’m so bored at home these days. You must come visit my older sister more often in the future.” Li Laotai enthusiastically pushed the tea and snacks towards the two women, saying, “I just can’t express myself well, and I’m afraid of being impolite to my older sister.”

Just as I was talking, there was a commotion outside the courtyard. Three old women, about the same age as Li Lao Tai, but with more modest clothing, soon walked in.

Li Lao Tai quickly pulled them up onto the kang and introduced them to the Wen family wives one by one. "This is Zhang Wumu, Feng Bamei, and Wu Da, all the oldest sisters in our village who are best at giving advice. When I'm feeling down and shed a tear, they come to comfort me."

Having said that, she turned to several elderly women and said, "This is Mr. Wen's mother. She says that Mr. Wen is unfilial and has hurt her feelings. As soon as she reached my front door, she started crying, and she hasn't stopped until now. I'm really afraid she'll cry blind, you must help me persuade her well!"Perhaps afraid of accidentally hurting the young master, he discreetly hid his sword behind him. 。Jia Yin chuckled and said, "Uncle Shan, are you sharpening your father-in-law's knife I have something...
