Chapter 1937: Not Even Peaceful After Getting Married

That day, she received a call from Youyou's mother-in-law. As the in-law was calling, Wan'er prepared to exchange a few polite pleasantries.

She was immediately met with a barrage of scolding: "How did you raise your daughter? Your daughter is simply too ill-mannered. She didn't come back for my birthday; never mind a gift, she didn't even offer a single word of verbal congratulations. I won't even mention that she's lazy and gluttonous every day, but she won't even bother to put on a show of courtesy? She is simply too ill-mannered..."

With her mother-in-law having a birthday and her daughter-in-law showing no gesture of any kind, Wan'er felt it was her own daughter's fault.

Her son-in-law was out working from dawn till dusk for the sake of social stability, so it was up to the women to handle more of the household affairs; not going to her mother-in-law's birthday was indeed going too far.

She apologized to her in-law, speaking soft, conciliatory words for a long time. Youyou's mother-in-law felt she had won and hung up the phone with satisfaction.

Just as she hung up, Youyou and her two sisters returned from shopping.

Wan'er sat on the sofa, stewing in anger. Seeing Youyou, her fury flared up, and she immediately rebuked her: "Your mother-in-law is having her birthday today; how can you still be out playing as if nothing is the matter?"

"It's too outrageous, go back immediately."

After speaking, she handed over an exquisite jewelry box. It was a diamond necklace she had bought while shopping last month; the design was unique and the price was not cheap!

"Take this back and give it to your mother-in-law. Just say you bought it specifically for her. Perhaps your mother-in-law will look at the face of the gift and not pursue the matter."

Youyou didn't take it, but instead asked: "My mother-in-law's birthday? That's not right. I remember Yuhang saying his mother's birthday is in the winter, still half a year away. Why is she having a birthday now?"

The triplets had excellent memories and were basically photographic. It was clearly a winter birthday; how had it become summer now?

Youyou was also a serious person. She said to her mother: "Just before we walked in, Yuheng had just called me, and he didn't even mention it."

If I were the only one who forgot, it might be excusable, but could it be that both of us remembered wrong?

She immediately called her husband and quickly received an accurate answer.

She had remembered correctly; her mother-in-law's birthday was indeed in the winter and definitely not now. The result was already very obvious: her mother-in-law was simply looking for trouble and picking bones out of an egg.

Taotao said to Youyou: "This kind of tactic doesn't look like something your mother-in-law would come up with; it's more like something my mother-in-law would do."

Mengmeng: "Look at what kind of mothers-in-law you found? My mother-in-law is still the best."

The sisters said with disdain, in unison: "Forget it, you just have good luck, not good judgment."

When the triplets were dating their respective husbands, they only looked at the boys' character and hadn't considered the other party's family at all.

If they had known before marriage that their mothers-in-law would be so difficult, they certainly would have considered it carefully.

As the triplets talked, they began to bicker. Wan'er now also knew she had wronged her daughter.

She knew what her own daughters were like.

Although they were bossy and mischievous, they were reasonable!

If it weren't for yielding to their mothers-in-law out of respect for their elders, they would have long since driven them to tears.

But the restraint shown by Youyou and Taotao didn't make them stop; instead, it made them even more unscrupulous. It was outrageous!

This was intolerable. The triplets exchanged a look, and then the three sisters smilingly found an excuse to return to their rooms.

Wan'er sighed. The look the triplets had just exchanged did not escape her eyes; these three children were going to fight back!

She didn't stop them, but she felt stifled, so she went to the Sheng Family to vent to her sister.

The Sheng Family was very lively right now.

A pair of twin girls had appeared out of thin air, and they were stubbornly claiming they were the children of Zichen and Li Xueer.

Li Xueer had just finished her postpartum confinement and had given birth to a boy at full term. Now, a pair of twins had appeared out of thin air, and the whole family was lying through their teeth, shamelessly claiming that Li Xueer had given birth to dragon-phoenix triplets!

The Sheng Family didn't just have an extra pair of twin girls; they also randomly came with a mysterious nanny.

This nanny was indeed very mysterious. She never went out and stayed in the Sheng Family. If guests came to the house, she would immediately hide in her room and never come out to see anyone.

Fortunately, the Sheng Family had a bunch of servants and nannies, and quite a few masters, so no one would notice whether a nanny was willing to see people or not.

Or rather, not everyone; for example, Wan'er.

When she went to her sister's house, she didn't need to call ahead to make an appointment like she did for others.

She came whenever she wanted, but upon reaching the main gate, she discovered: why were there bodyguards standing guard?

The bodyguard stopped her: "Lady Jian, please wait a moment, I will go in and announce you."

If it were normal times, even if she found it strange, she wouldn't object. But Wan'er was in a bad mood now, and being stopped even after reaching the gate made her feel even worse!

"Move aside, I don't need to be announced when I come here."

Before she finished speaking, she had already barged in.

The bodyguard knew Wan'er and knew she was the sister of their mistress, and also knew she was usually gentle and very easy to talk to.

It was precisely because they knew this that they hadn't guarded against her suddenly barging in!

"Sister, you're home. Why are the bodyguards acting so mysteriously..."

Wan'er stopped mid-sentence.

She stared in disbelief at the young woman sitting opposite Shi Youxuan, and then rubbed her eyes vigorously.

"My God! I'm not dreaming..."

Before she could finish, her mouth was covered from behind.

The person who was "quick-eyed and fast-handed" was none other than Li Xueer.

Li Xueer had a very strong grip. By the time she was sure her aunt wouldn't scream and let go, Wan'er's face was already flushed red from being stifled.

"What's going on?" She was still stunned, but her voice was much lower.

Shi Youxuan said: "Sit down, I'll tell you."

Li Xueer took the initiative to pour tea to help her aunt calm her nerves!

Wan'er kept staring at the young woman in front of her wearing a nanny's uniform, whispering: "Although I don't often watch the news, I still know the President of L Country. The President who has already passed away is sitting right in front of me. I haven't mistaken the person, have I?"

She even specifically checked; the woman in front of her had a shadow, so that was correct.

"You haven't mistaken her."

Shi Youxuan said: "The truth is just as you see it. She faked her death. There is only one ultimate goal: everyone wants to live a happy life, and this is the best arrangement."

"You all are too much. You actually kept such a secret from me?"

"You said it yourself, it's a secret. Of course, the fewer people who know, the better."

Qi Shishi smiled and took the initiative to reach out her hand: "Hello, Auntie. My name is Wang Aoxue. I am currently the family's nanny, and in the future, I will be Zirui's wife."

It is a long story; the reason she did this in the first place was the result of careful deliberation.

The conversation with Shi Youxuan had a great impact on Qi Shishi!

She lost both her parents when she was very young, and having spent so many years in an orphanage, she knew deeply how difficult it is to be without parents.

The plan was originally well-made: one child for each side, which would serve as a comfort for both parties.

But after talking with Shi Youxuan, she barely slept all night.

She repeatedly pondered what Zirui's mother had said.

If a child does not grow up by their biological parents' side, they will inevitably have various psychological problems, and no matter how brilliant the parents' careers are, they cannot make up for it.
