"Second daughter-in-law, what do you think?"
Zhuang Xiyue smiled: "My thoughts don’t matter. As long as it’s truly for the good of this family, I will support it."
Whether she supports it or not? Yin Suhua is most annoyed by this ambiguous attitude, but she can’t afford to anger Zhuang Xiyue.
"Doesn’t Yueyue trust ?" Yin Suhua chuckled.
"Third aunt will surely think for the family, that’s beyond doubt. We all see your efforts over the years. However, Yuyu is just pregnant and needs care. I’m afraid third aunt might be overwheld."
"Indeed." ng Shujing quickly chid in: "Third aunt, you are getting on in years and not as robust as you once were. For the sake of your health, you shouldn’t be so overworked. Why not leave the household managent to ? I’m the eldest daughter-in-law. I learned quite a bit from Mom before, and I’m in the pri of my life; the children are grown and don’t need my attention much. Thus, as I idle, I need sothing to do."
Yin Suhua was so angry her hands shook. Mother and daughter-in-law were two of a kind. Just as Lu Yuke left, ng Shujing couldn’t wait to jump out and compete for the household managent, all under the guise of concern for her health—bah!
"Eldest daughter-in-law, you overthink. My health is good. It’s you who should be concerned with Huahua and Xingxing’s upcoming college exams, as it’s the ti they need the family’s attention. You should find ti to be with them more. Moreover, you lack household managent experience. With such a large family, every aspect needs attention. Without experience, you can’t handle it. Though I’m old, age brings wisdom, and managing the household is still within my capabilities." Yin Suhua was determined to seize control of the household.
ng Shujing couldn’t have been more frustrated. Nobody trusted her, largely due to Lu Yuke’s constant suppression. Everyone lived under her repression, and now, with difficulty, the obstacle of Lu Yuke was removed, but no one wanted the household managent to return to her, which was no different than having Lu Yuke in control.
She looked at Zhuang Xiyue: "Yueyue, say sothing."
Zhuang Xiyue sighed: "Sister-in-law, since third aunt is so confident, let’s trust her."
ng Shujing felt a cold, biting wind graze her heart.
All votes went through. From now on, Yin Suhua would be the head mistress of the Yan Family, and everyone had to live according to her mood. That feeling was simply too good.
Yin Suhua barely restrained herself from laughing up to the heavens.
Zhuang Xiyue’s eyes quickly flashed with mockery.
This household managent was a hot potato, with third aunt painstakingly winning it over. Let’s see if she can handle it.
Everyone left cleanly. As the new manager, Yin Suhua quickly had the accounts from recent years sent over, starting with those records. She wanted to see how much Lu Yuke had profited.
When the wall falls, everyone pushes; this saying is truly correct. With the departure of Lu Yuke, she as the elder daughter-in-law was rely a decoration.
Third aunt’s harshness was relentless; the future promised to be just as grueling.
ng Shujing, exhausted in both body and mind, ignored Zhuang Xiyue calling from behind, quickening her pace as she left.
"It’s only natural to be temporarily troubled, but soon she will thank us for not helping her today." A gentle voice suddenly rang out beside her ear.
Zhuang Xiyue turned to look and smiled: "Second sister-in-law."
Yi Suchen nodded lightly and walked out with Zhuang Xiyue.
After returning, ng Shujing looked at Yan Nanxiao lying in bed, growing increasingly resentful. Why did she marry such a man? Unable to help, he only dragged her down.
Yan Nanxiao’s eye was scratched by a fingernail, but fortunately, it didn’t injure his eyeball. The wounds on his back were superficial, and he’ll recover in a few days.
He slowly opened his eyes, seeing ng Shujing standing by the bed, hatred flashing in Yan Nanxiao’s eyes.
"Bitch, watch how I deal with you later."
ng Shujing didn’t bother with him any longer. She couldn’t stay in this house. She packed up her things, planning to stay at her maiden family for a while. But given the chaos over ng Junci breaking his arm, she only expected more frustration there, ultimately deciding to go abroad to find Jinjin.
Several years ago, Jinjin married in Singapore. Her son-in-law works in software developnt, cos from a good family, and they live well. Her granddaughter is already three years old this year; going to help Jinjin with the child was better than enduring hardship at ho. She planned to take Huahua and Xingxing with her. The three sisters hadn’t seen each other in years and surely missed each other.
