Chapter 1099
On the second day of the New Year, married daughters return to their parents' home, and their husbands accompany them, so it is commonly known as the Day of Welcoming the Son-in-law.
Early in the morning, the young couple began to carefully prepare for the visit to the parents' home.
Song Yulan put on a brand-new wool coat, applied snow cream, and tidied herself up beautifully. Cao Weiguo also dressed neatly, wore his Shanghai-brand watch, put on his polished leather shoes, and after everything was ready, they happily left the house with gifts.
The residents in the courtyard looked at Cao Weiguo carrying big and small bags of gifts, feeling an indescribable sourness in their hearts.
Many families with marriageable daughters regretted it, secretly cursing themselves for having poor judgment and failing to get the moon first because they were near the water.
Qin Huairu looked at the beautiful and wealthy Song Yulan and was burning with jealousy. She was also going back to her parents' home today, but the gifts she prepared were pitifully few, and she received cold looks every time she went home.
But look at Song Yulan?
Married to Cao Weiguo, eating well and drinking well, returning to her parents' home with big and small bags—she had both face and substance.
People are afraid of comparison!
Once compared, the heart becomes unbalanced!
Both are country girls, what is she inferior to Song Yulan in?
Why can Song Yulan enjoy happiness, while she has to eat all the bitterness of life?
Cao Weiguo ignored Qin Huairu's resentful gaze and walked out of the Sihe Academy talking and laughing.
Because Song Yulan was pregnant, riding a bicycle or tricycle was inconvenient and unsafe, so they chose to take the bus.
Blowing in the cold wind for more than twenty minutes, the couple finally got on the bus.
There were many people going out today, and the bus was full, but fortunately, a kind young man gave his seat to Song Yulan.
Cao Weiguo put the things at his feet and stood swaying while holding the handle for the whole journey.
When they arrived at the father-in-law's house, the father-in-law's family stood at the door, welcoming their daughter and son-in-law with smiles and enthusiasm.
Cao Weiguo handed the gifts to his brother-in-law and sister-in-law, and Song Yulan took out the prepared red envelopes and distributed them to the children in her parents' home.
This year, the Song family was exceptionally lively. Since Song Yulan married Cao Weiguo, the family's life had become more and more prosperous.
