Chapter 281: Gossip (A Normal First Chapter and an Even More Extra Chapter)

Without knowing their conflict, Su Yu naturally sides with Xu Mo Bai. If Ye Ruotian truly inexplicably dislikes Xu Mo Bai, then she would have to be the villain spoiling this marriage!

The discord between aunt and sister‑in‑law can be the start of all sorts of messy affairs!

【Hmm, let me check!】

Wulongcha checked. Su Yu also couldn't find a suitable topic, so she recommended her snacks to Ye Ruotian.

After seriously introducing each snack, Su Yu added, "They're really delicious!"

Xu Mo Yan was very gracious, ate every item, nodded vigorously, and gave a thumbs‑up!

Ye Ruotian, who keeps a light diet to maintain her figure, politely declined, "Thanks! I'm not really into this!"

"Alright then, sister‑in‑law, would you like some fruit?"

Su Yu brought over several plates of fruit from another table.

Ye Ruotian thought Su Yu had just grabbed them at random, but the fruit turned out to be a full assortment.

"Thank you!"

Having refused the meat, Ye Ruotian didn't want to refuse fruit again, so she picked the ones she liked and tried them.

Ye Ruotian's eyes sparkled as she looked at Su Yu, "This one tastes especially good; do you know where it was bought?"

Ye Ruotian chose a cherry tomato, also called a small tomato. She once went to the countryside with her club and tasted tomatoes with that texture. After that she fell in love with tomatoes. Unfortunately, no matter where she looked outside, she couldn't find that same flavor.

But the small tomatoes Su Yu gave were very similar to the ones she had eaten before!

Perhaps memory idealizes things; she felt the original was still tastier!

Unfortunately that mountain was requisitioned locally, a road and railway were built, and the families on the mountain moved away; the ones she bought nearby didn't have that flavor either.

"I didn't buy it; it's from my family!"

Seeing Ye Ruotian's delighted expression, Su Yu was thrilled!

"Sister‑in‑law, wait a moment!"

Su Yu rushed out excitedly, "Uncle Qin! Uncle Qin!"

Qin Tao heard Su Yu's voice, pressed the cafeteria intercom, and the staff, adeptly standing before a pile of meat, waited for Little General Manager Su to place the order.

"Little General Manager Su!"

Su Yu waved her hand, "Pack all the unsold cherry tomatoes for me; I want to give them to sister‑in‑law, she loves them!"

"Sure!"

Qin Tao was only startled for a moment, then headed straight to the elevator.

The cafeteria staff, despite the surprise, quickly packed the remaining cherry tomatoes and delivered them to the elevator entrance.

Su Yu waited outside for a short while and then received the packaged cherry tomatoes.

"Thank you, Uncle Qin!"

Excited, Su Yu carried the over‑five‑pound cherry tomatoes back to the office, "Sister‑in‑law, they're all for you; no need to be polite, we have plenty at home. Would you like to come back with me?"

Su Yu, her face beaming, looked at Ye Ruotian, "My home has lots of tasty food; we have all these fruits, many of them! No need to be formal!"

【Take them! Take them! All of them take away!】

Although her personality differs from Tang Can's, she also likes inviting people to her home, which is quite similar.

"My brother and I still need to visit other elders' homes; can we go another time?"

Ye Ruotian had also planned to visit the Su Family. But Ji Tianlin's new company was doing so well that, in his excitement, he took the whole company abroad for a trip. Xu Mingyue even brought Ji Yan and the ten multilingual female bodyguards that Su Yu had requested.

Now the people who can make decisions for the Su Family are all busy in the company.

Upon learning this, Xu Mo Yan detoured, drove her to the Su Clan.

"Of course! Sister‑in‑law, you like to eat; our family can deliver every day! How about trying something else, the others are also delicious!"

【We can give you all the remaining fruit!】

Su Xi calmly nodded, "We have a farm at home; its yield has recently increased, and I've had people acquire new plots. Future fruit production will only rise. Since the younger siblings like them, I've arranged for a portion to be sent to your home."

The original planting of fruits, vegetables, and livestock was because Yang Zhichun wanted to nurture her health. She couldn't eat vegetables of poor quality.

Back then Su Xi deliberately took time to survey water, soil, and pollution across regions, selecting some remote mountain forests for organic farming, exclusively for Yang Zhichun's daily needs.

As the farm output grew, Yang Zhichun couldn't finish it all, so Su Xi had some sent to the Su Clan's company, and the rest supplied to families with better relations.

After Su Yu returned to the Su Family, she proved extremely picky! To get her to enjoy fruits and vegetables, Su Xi dispatched a specialist team to scout sites and lease land. The Su Clan added several new fruit production areas and vegetable bases.

To avoid wasting the fruit produced there, Su Xi also plans to establish an organic fruit‑and‑vegetable chain supermarket, catering to those in need.

Giving fruit to Ye Ruotian isn't gratuitous. Her social circle barely overlaps with the Su Family's. If she serves their fruit to guests, it's essentially advertising for them.

This deal isn't a loss!

Ye Ruotian still can't get used to such enthusiasm! It seems everyone connected to the Xu family is exceedingly generous!

Moreover, perhaps it's Ye Ruotian's illusion, but Su Yu's complexion seemed briefly fierce. When she looked again, her expression had returned to normal, still smiling sweetly!

"Alright, thanks, brother!"

Upon hearing that Xu Mo Yan had already agreed, Ye Ruotian, who already liked the food, naturally wouldn't refuse.

"Sister‑in‑law, try some more! They're all delicious!"

"Alright, thanks, little sister!"

It just so happens that Ye Ruotian doesn't know how to coax children; eating is fine, and she can eat without having to interact with Su Yu.

【Host, I'm back!】

【Did you find it? What conflict does this sister‑in‑law have with Sister Xu Mo Bai?】

【There's no conflict; Ye Ruotian probably misunderstood. Xu Mo Bai wanted Ye Ruotian to give her a niece, perhaps got emotional, and her every display caused Ye Ruotian to misinterpret. Ye Ruotian thought Xu Mo Bai was overbearing and wanted to have an aunt‑in‑law showdown with her.】

【…That misunderstanding is quite big!】

【Ye Ruotian didn't tell her family, but vented to a close female friend. Coincidentally, that friend is at odds with Xu Mo Bai.】

Wulongcha, after checking the chat logs, was also speechless. Before Ye Ruotian vents to people, doesn't she ever check the interpersonal relationships?

【Why not deal with them?】

【Because they can't outdo Xu Mo Bai, they get scolded by her parents every day!】

That girl unfortunately went to the same school as Xu Mo Bai from childhood. Moreover, her parents had an inexplicable competitive spirit, insisting on comparing their child with Xu Mo Bai. If their child fell short, they would fly into a rage, either beating or scolding the child. Even more unfortunately, that girl was always inferior to Xu Mo Bai from childhood.

Thus the girl took out her anger on Xu Mo Bai, always finding her displeasing!

【How should I tell Ye Ruoxun? My Mo Bai sister simply wants a little niece!】

Wulongcha didn't know. It thought it could watch some gossip, but that's it?

【This gossip isn't as good as last time's incense!】

Here are two thousand characters: one thousand is the original update, another thousand is an extra chapter. Sorry, I didn't finish the regular update tonight.

Mini theater:

Previous recap: Only three people remain at home: Su Xi, Su Yi, and Su Yu. But the amount of fruit at home is still the same.

No-prize guess: Which little cutie, due to growing older, was forced to increase the quantity and variety of fruit in their diet?

Dear ones, good night~
