- Chapter 5 - Hiding It From Them
Shen Yunqing packed up her things and came out of the room. She saw that Shen’s father had returned and was standing in the yard eating potatoes. She greeted him softly, “Dad, you’re back.”
Shen’s father was obviously stunned, turned around and looked at her, nodded seriously, “Yeah.”
I don’t know if it’s like this in all families, one of the parents always plays the role of a strict father or a strict mother.
When Shen Yunqing lived in modern times, she was an only child. Her mother was very strict with her and always compared her with other children. When she did not get the score her mother wanted in the college entrance examination, her mother went so far as to bring her sponsored brothers and sisters back home and formally adopted them as her adopted sons and daughters.
He was always very patient with their mother and spoke gently to her, but when it came to her, he didn’t even smile.
Her father was busy with work and was often not at home. Although she was rebellious, she did not forget to study. She did not do badly in the college entrance examination, with 618 points. When she applied for college, she chose Beijing Film Academy. In the end, her mother put her down, saying that with her looks, she would not be able to make it in the entertainment industry…
Shen Yunqing, who has been beautiful since she was a child, is very aware of her own conditions. With her beauty, as long as she doesn’t mess around, it is only a matter of time for her to become popular in the entertainment industry.
Her mother’s strong opposition made her upset, and she finally gave up her favorite major and chose auditing.
Second sister-in-law Lin Lina came home from work and saw her standing in the yard in a daze. She took out a small box from her cloth bag and handed it to her: “Yun Qing, this is the ink you wanted.”
Shen Yunqing came back to her senses, concealed the complicated emotions in her heart, smiled, and took the thing: “Thank you, second sister-in-law, thank you for your trouble.”
Lin Lina supported her waist, with her big belly, and sat down on the high stool under the eaves: “We are a family, let’s not talk about this. ”
Mother Shen was cooking in the kitchen. When she heard her second daughter-in-law come back, she picked out three roasted potatoes from the stove and handed them to her: “We can eat after we fry another dish. Eat a potato to fill your stomach first. ”
“Thank you, Mom. “Lin Lina raised her hand and pulled down a dry corn cob hanging on the steel wire of the beam, and wiped it with potato ash: “Mom, hasn’t my sister-in-law come back from her parents’ home yet? ”
Mother Chen was washing vegetables and said with a smile, “Not yet. Erliuzi brought a message this morning saying that the two elders were reluctant to part with their two grandsons and wanted to stay there for two days. ”
Lin Lina: “I haven’t seen Dafu and Xiaofu for a few days, and I miss them a little. ”
Shen Yunqing sat in front of the stove, helping Shen’s mother to light the fire and listening to the conversation between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
When she was in college, she often read novels to kill time because she was bored with her major.
Many of the period novels are about the conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and the group’s favorites giving birth to treasures and abusing the scum.
It is really rare to find a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who get along harmoniously like Shen’s mother and second sister-in-law.
“Yunqing, take the bowls and chopsticks and get ready to eat. ”
After Shen’s mother scraped the oil residue from the pot and fried cabbage, she put several large ladles of well water into the big pot to warm it up, and washed the dishes after dinner.
Shen Yunqing carried a large stack of bowls and chopsticks and went to the main room to invite everyone to eat.
The dinner cooked by Shen’s mother was more oily and watery than lunch. One of the reasons was that the second sister-in-law was pregnant and she had to be nourished, so the whole family was blessed.
The family sat down and started to eat with the cornmeal buns in the iron basin.
Shen’s mother handed a bowl of egg custard to Lin Lina.
Cornmeal buns are much easier to swallow than the wild vegetable steamed buns at noon.
In order not to alert the enemy, Shen Yunqing sat next to Shen’s mother and tried to reduce her presence as much as possible.
At the table, Shen’s father and his three sons were talking about the marriage with the Du family.
“The village chief’s family will come to pay gifts the day after tomorrow. The betrothal gift of 200 yuan, 100 yuan for Yunqing, and the remaining 100 yuan, the third son will take it to the Zhao family, and discuss the marriage as soon as possible before Yunqing. ”
Chen Anhao obeyed his father, and his face couldn’t hide the joy of getting married: “Okay, I’ll listen to Dad. ”
My daughter didn’t make trouble at the dinner table today. Father Shen looked at Shen Yunqing who was sitting opposite with a serious face: “Yunqing, regarding the wedding, the Du family will notify us when the date is set. You and your mother go to the town tomorrow and buy whatever you like. Dad doesn’t have much to give you. ”
Shen Yunqing bit the steamed bun lightly and nodded: “Yeah. ”
