Protagonist:

Chai Mi

Zhang Hailan pursed her lips: "Chai Mi, you're being too unkind. After all, Xiao Doubao is a girl... this girl, even if she gives herself away, someone will want her."

"You can forget it. What kind of starved man would be interested in her?" Chai Mi retorted.

"Alright, alright. You two, shut your mouths already, you're talking too much nonsense." Su Jin finally couldn't bear it and said.

Chai Mi and Zhang Hailan stopped talking, each had a few small drinks, and finished the dumplings.

"Xiu'er, help clear the bowls and chopsticks."

Chai Mi gave the order, and Chai Xiu obediently helped take the bowls and chopsticks from the table, put them into the big pot, preparing to wash up a bit.

Chai Mi also helped take the table; after clearing up, Zhang Hailan brewed tea, and several people sat at the kang head to chat idly.

"No matter what, Chai Mi has finally helped my third aunt vent a bad breath held for so many years. What kind of society is this now? Having a boy or a girl is the same... where is there anything like their Old Chai Family? Even if she doesn't give birth, doesn't life go on just the same?!"

Zhang Hailan had just finished speaking when she saw Su Jin glaring at her, as if saying: You haven't given birth to children, so you're still in the right?

Zhang Hailan glared back without yielding.

The scene became awkward for a moment.

"This..." Chai Mi was getting a headache over the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship at her maternal aunt's home; it was definitely not particularly harmonious...

"This is just the beginning. Even if they submit now, it's useless. After all, I don't submit..." Chai Mi said with a smile: "Tomorrow morning, get up early. By then, go to Laozhai to watch the opera."

"What opera? Is there an opera troupe coming to sing opera?" Zhang Hailan asked, frowning.

"Your family's opera troupe sings opera in the morning?" Su Jin pursed her lips and muttered: "That opera troupe, shouldn't they sing opera at night?"

"Not singing opera. Watching opera... anyway, you just go watch the opera when the time comes." Chai Mi hurriedly interrupted.

Several people chatted idly for a while, drank a few cups of tea, and the sky was about to become completely dark; if it were her previous life, Chai Mi might have stayed at her maternal aunt's home, but now she always felt that sleeping outside wouldn't be very good.

So she started making arrangements to leave.

After two rounds of arranging, and being refused, Chai Mi arranged to go home for the third time.

"No, my going home. Wait until it's too dark later, you won't be able to see the road."

Knowing Chai Mi sincerely wanted to leave, Su Jin didn't stop her, but instead packed the big and small packages of snacks, candies, and some spicy strips bought from the small shop into a plastic bag, then turned around and took two boards of AD calcium milk, finally letting Zhang Hailan get a piece of mutton, specifically telling Chai Mi: "This mutton must be eaten tomorrow morning; if not eaten, it will spoil. Summer can't keep things; originally I still planned to deliver it to you, but since you came yourself, take it back. If you're not making dumplings, first boil some water, cook it thoroughly, add some salt, it can last two more days. Otherwise, this meat will stink tomorrow night, and be thrown away."

Su Jin also said: "Once things are more or less over, and the anger is vented, life still has to be lived. If your mom and your dad haven't reached the point of being incompatible like water and fire, come back earlier. Your grandma is paralyzed, and your grandpa doesn't have two years of troublemaking left; what they say doesn't count. Your Da Jiu is a good person, but people's Da Jiu already has a daughter-in-law; staying at your mother's family home can't be too long. Also, you, don't always be brandishing knives and spears, taking a kitchen knife to hack people; if you accidentally hurt yourself, that wouldn't be good..."

Chai Mi agreed with a mouth full of promises.

Zhang Hailan helped carry things, led Chai Xiu, and finally argued: "Oh, I say, Chai Mi, just stay one night. You haven't stayed at your maternal aunt's home for a long time. Tomorrow morning, eat before going back. What are you in such a hurry to go back for? What, can't sleep at your sister-in-law's home..."
