Yesterday, our chief editor Jun helped with updates. Finally back today, but too tired, just one Chapter, we’ll rise up again tomorrow!

"Always making a fuss, if I don’t say sothing to you, who knows what you’ll beco." Looking at her daughter, Eldest Uncle’s Wife had a face full of helplessness.
"Grandma, my mom just likes to put down, in her eyes, there’s nothing right about ." Wang Yu sat next to Old Madam Wang, pouting indignantly, "Is there a mom like her?"
"If your mom praised you every day, then sothing would be wrong with her..." Old Madam Wang chuckled as she ruffled her granddaughter’s hair. "Even though you call Chuxia ’third sister-in-law,’ she’s much younger than you. Look at her, then look at yourself, do you still think your mom is treating you unfairly?"
"Second Aunt..." Wang Yu looked pitifully at Second Aunt Wang, "You’re the nicest to , can’t you say sothing fair?"
Second Aunt Wang looked at her with a troubled expression: "What do you want Second Aunt to say? The comparison is too obvious, Second Aunt can’t lie with her eyes open, right?"
Wang Yu: "..."
Chuxia held back her laughter to the point of internal injury, but she really liked Wang Yu’s personality, straightforward and carefree, such people make the best friends. So, she gave her an out: "Grandma, Eldest Uncle’s Wife, Second Aunt, I’m just not familiar with you yet, that’s why I’m holding back. If we really got along for a while, you’d know how much trouble I can be."
"Third Sister-in-law, I knew you were the best." Wang Yu affectionately held her arm, "If Third Brother bullies Third Sister-in-law, I’ll definitely help you get back at him."
"Can you actually help? You’re not even familiar with him, who do you think you are?" Eldest Uncle’s Wife couldn’t resist chiding her daughter.
"I’m not familiar, but isn’t my brother close with him? Besides..." Wang Yu waved her fist, "The less familiar, the easier to deal with without any burden."
Eldest Uncle’s Wife looked helplessly at Chuxia: "Don’t mind her, she’s just this silly. When she ets soone she vibes with, she doesn’t think if it’s reasonable or not, she’ll just stick up for them."
"I really like Wang Yu’s personality." Chuxia smiled, reinforcing her statent, "I really do."
"Third Sister-in-law, let’s go have a private chat, so they don’t keep stirring up trouble!" Wang Yu said, pulling Chuxia to stand up.
"Can you be reliable for once?" Eldest Uncle’s Wife grabbed her daughter, giving her a glare, "Your Third Brother will be out soon, don’t cause trouble."
"Mom, you don’t think I have any interest in Third Brother, do you, and you’re worried I’ll drag Third Sister-in-law away to talk nonsense?" Wang Yu looked at her mom, exasperated, "I’m your real daughter, do you really think I’m that shaless in your heart?"
Eldest Uncle’s Wife’s gaze flickered, and she didn’t respond, obviously, she did think that way.
Wang Yu looked at Chuxia: "Third Sister-in-law, do you think I’m that kind of person?"
Chuxia was so troubled; she didn’t want to get involved in the mother-daughter conflict, but if she said nothing, it seed wrong, so she smiled: "Eldest Uncle’s Wife, I know you’re looking out for , thank you, Wang Yu, thank you for being so honest with on the first eting."
Eldest Uncle’s Wife frowned at her daughter: "Look at her, she knows how to speak well. Then look at you, acting like a reckless teenager every day. I can’t figure out what’s worse about you compared to others, how did you grow up like this?"
At this mont, Chuxia understood that the one most opposed to her marrying Zhou Mikang was Eldest Uncle’s Wife, or maybe she always wanted her daughter to marry Zhou Mikang?
But as far as she knew, the Wang family never approached the Zhou family for marriage, so there was no issue of Zhou Mikang rejecting Wang Yu, if they were interested, why wait until he got married to be anxious?
Comparatively, the daughter is much more adorable than the mom.
Liking soone is just liking them; not planning to compete ans not planning to compete, not feeling inferior, nor mocking others... In an instant, Chuxia’s impression of Eldest Uncle’s Wife deteriorated.
"Mom, I really don’t like your personality. Things that can be said directly, why twist them tenfold and beat around the bush?"
"Xiaoyu, what are you saying?" Eldest Uncle’s Wife glared at her daughter, face full of anger, "Is this how you talk to your own mom?"
"Fine, I’m sorry, I apologize for my tone, but you must also admit that you’re excluding Chuxia. She’s not foolish; she noticed early on.
Mom, the facts are right here. Between Chuxia and , who’s above and who’s below is very clear, there’s no need for you to stir up conflict between us?
Besides, even if I cause trouble, does it help? She’s already the Wife of Zhou Mikang. Do you want your daughter to beco a Fox Spirit and break up their marriage..."
"Shut up! Are you even my daughter? Is this how you trample over your own mother? Is that what I ant?"
"Then please say what you an!"
"You..."
Seeing the Eldest Uncle’s Wife’s face turn red with anger, Second Aunt Wang quickly advised Wang Yu, "Don’t make your mother angry, she’s just worried you haven’t t the right person yet. Can’t you talk to her nicely?"
"Even if she’s worried, she can’t force to do sothing disgraceful, right? I could have been friends with third sister-in-law, but with her making a scene like this, how can I face her?" Wang Yu said as she turned to Chuxia, "Third sister-in-law, I’m sorry for making things difficult for you."
"It is a bit difficult..." Chuxia nodded, "For you all to be arguing because of during the New Year, I really feel embarrassed."
"This child..." Old Madam Wang laughed, looking at her eldest daughter-in-law, "Marriage is up to fate. Even without Chuxia, Zhou Mikang wouldn’t have picked Wang Yu. Stop overthinking and don’t bring unnecessary trouble upon yourself."
"Mom, I didn’t..." The Eldest Uncle’s Wife hesitated for a while, finally sighed, and looked at Chuxia, "I’m sorry, I wasn’t targeting you. It’s just seeing my daughter always in front of , it makes angry.
She’s in her twenties now, but she still doesn’t have a sense of direction. She waits until after the person she likes gets married to regret it with tears.
As a mother, when I see my daughter upset, I can’t help but feel frustrated, so my words can sound harsh. Really, I wasn’t targeting you."
"What you’re saying..." Chuxia chuckled and shook her head, "Whether from your words or actions, it shows you’re blaming for taking your ideal son-in-law. How am I supposed to respond to that?"
Just then, Zhou Mikang ca out of the study, and Chuxia quickly waved him over, "Co here, I have sothing I want to ask you, hurry."
"What’s the matter?" Zhou Mikang ca over to the ladies, looking softly at Chuxia, "If you needed , why didn’t you co to the study?"
"Hypothetically..." Chuxia paused and said, "I an, hypothetically, if you hadn’t t first but t Wang Yu, would you have liked her?"
"What nonsense are you talking?" Zhou Mikang frowned and looked at Wang Yu, "Did you cause trouble for her?"
"No, no..." Wang Yu shook her hands repeatedly, unsure of what to say.
"It was ." The Eldest Uncle’s Wife admitted, "I wasn’t trying to make trouble, just regretting for the sake of my daughter."
"I t Wang Yu when I was ten, but I t Lin Chuxia when I was twenty-seven."
Zhou Mikang’s reply was a clear ssage to the Eldest Uncle’s Wife, Stop it, I t your daughter first, but later on, I t my wife. Can you stop being so self-righteous?
The Eldest Uncle’s Wife blushed, she really had forgotten about that.
Second Aunt Wang had to diate again, "Regintal Commander Xiao Zhou, don’t get angry, all mothers are like this. When they see their children getting older without finding the right match, they beco anxious and easily irritable. It’s not directed at anyone, they’re just worried about their daughters."
"Her anxiety doesn’t concern , but treating my wife as if she’s superfluous does." Zhou Mikang looked indifferently at the Eldest Uncle’s Wife, "Let be clear, if it weren’t for Chuxia, I would have chosen to stay single for life. Got it?"
"Co on, let’s go to the study." Zhou Mikang dragged Chuxia forcibly into the study. Seeing them enter, Lin Wenbin and Wang Jie both were taken aback.
"Your mom was bullying my wife." Zhou Mikang looked dissatisfiedly at Wang Jie, "Don’t tell you’re unaware of your mom’s intentions."
"How did she bully her?" Lin Wenbin stood up in a flash, looking at Chuxia, "Tell , how did she bully you?"
"She didn’t bully , don’t listen to Zhou Mikang’s nonsense, he’s just overreacting. Whatever you were discussing, continue, I’ll just listen in." Chuxia said as she dragged a chair to sit down, conveniently with her back facing the door, making sure anyone trying to leave would have to pass by her. Obviously, she hoped Lin Wenbin wouldn’t act impulsively.
"Be honest!" Lin Wenbin said displeasedly, "Chuxia, you don’t need to tolerate anything for anyone, nor need to endure grievances for anyone."
"Really, it’s nothing, just a slip of the tongue." Chuxia pushed Zhou Mikang, annoyed, "It’s all your fault, causing your big brother to worry with your nonsense."
"I can guess what my mom said. She’s always worried about my sister, afraid she won’t find soone she likes..." Wang Jie gave a helpless smile and continued, "My sister did like Zhou Mikang after the last eting, but after talking with , she gave up the idea.
She’s a particularly upright and kind girl, she would never do anything to break up soone else’s family, Lin Wenbin, rest assured, if there really is a problem, you can bla ."
"Co on, an upright and kind girl, thinking about soone else’s husband?"
"She stopped thinking about him once she knew Zhou Mikang was married."
"Then why does your mom keep thinking about it?"
"She..." Wang Jie sighed apologetically at Lin Wenbin, "I’m sorry, it’s my fault. I should have known my mom would ss things up. She’s actually a sensible person, but when it cos to my sister, she loses her head."
"Initially, she seed sensible, but ever since your sister ca back, she’s been acting more and more strangely." Chuxia spread her hands, looking at Zhou Mikang, "Aren’t you proud, having so many people trying to snatch you away?" (To be continued.
