Protagonist:

Chai Mi

"By the way, what did my cousin go off to do?" Chai Mi asked.

Ever since Chai Mi arrived, Liu San hasn't been home.

"Your eldest cousin went up there..." Zhang Hailan lifted the door curtain and gestured with her hand: "Your eldest cousin's wife sheared several sheep, and had your cousin go help shear the wool."

Chai Mi nodded, fearing Zhang Hailan would follow up with: Heh, won't do her own housework, but goes to help her sister-in-law shear wool every day...

After all, since ancient times, the relationship between a sister-in-law and a younger sister-in-law has always been particularly tense...

Chai Mi then began spouting nonsense with her eyes wide open, saying with an attitude of three parts perfunctory and seven parts bullshit: "My eldest cousin has good technique, shearing wool is a technical job, ordinary people can't do it. Our family's wool is all sheared by my eldest cousin..."

"Tch... my Third Aunt at least provides meals, your eldest cousin's wife never provides meals..."

Chai Mi was awkward for a long while, but ultimately still said: "Sister-in-law, you go cook... the two of us will have a couple drinks in a bit."

Hearing about drinking, Zhang Hailan immediately perked up: "Absolutely. I'll go buy a case of beer, put it in the well to chill."

"Get Heisong, strong kick. I'll aim to pass out after half a bottle, and if I pass out I'll just sleep here, not going home." Chai Mi joked.

"Hao la." Zhang Hailan went out to find the small shop to buy beer.

Heisong is a locally produced beer, famous for its shameless 14°C.

You have to know ordinary beer is only 7-8°C, later on to promote the beer industry many got it down to 1-2 degrees, drinking it isn't much different from drinking water.

One can imagine the gold content of this Heisong 14°C beer.

Its main selling point is shamelessness, 14°C whoever drinks it gets dizzy.

Of course, this beer factory was also acquired in the previous life, after all beer of this strength has worrying sales... other beers you drink a stack, this one you drink one bottle and you're down...

Sales could take off, my ass!

Taste-wise, Heisong's taste is also ordinary, this era's Heisong advantage is the big bottle, other people's beer is 500ml, it directly goes 700ml.

And because the bottle is black, locally they all call it Big Black Stick.

Chai Mi has basically never touched a drop of alcohol, but coming to her maternal aunt's house, if she wants to leave, her maternal aunt definitely won't agree.

Then she inevitably has to stay for the meal.

Staying for the meal, Zhang Hailan loves to drink, so she inevitably has to accompany her for a couple cups.

If Chai Mi doesn't drink, Zhang Hailan will say: What? Come to your sister-in-law's, sister-in-law can't even manage your food, can't even manage your wine!

Chai Mi helpless, still has to drink.

Might as well just say she'll drink a bit, actually better. And originally Chai Mi isn't a fussy person either.

"Besides being able to eat, can also drink..." Su Jin continued muttering.

"Aunt..."

Chai Mi was also helpless, luckily this mother-in-law is her own maternal aunt, otherwise she'd easily end up fighting with her.

Sometimes Chai Mi thinks, since ancient times this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship is indeed very hard to handle.

But luckily Su Jin just mutters, and Su Jin only has one son, no other complications. Whatever the old couple do, it's all left for their son, left for Liu San and Zhang Hailan. So Zhang Hailan fundamentally doesn't care what mother-in-law Su Jin says.

Zhang Hailan: You say yours, anyway I won't lose a piece of flesh, whatever...

So Chai Mi feels her maternal aunt's family's mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationship is passable, far from reaching the point of water and fire incompatible.

After a while, Su Jin finished mending and patching, held up that red little garment and compared it, felt that if given to Chai Mi's little sister Chai Xin to wear it should be quite suitable, and handed it to Chai Mi: "Later, give it to your family's third to wear. I've got nothing to do, taking advantage of having time, eyes still good, make a few little clothes for her. Your mother's health isn't good, can't do this kind of work anymore."
