“Wife, you didn’t eat much this morning, are you hungry? Eat more.”

Brother Lu didn’t touch his chopsticks and first picked out a bowl of her favorite dish for his wife.

Then he picked up the dishes his daughters loved for the two girls, and only then did he start eating himself.

“Your mother loves garlic shoots, eat more.”

Mrs. Lu sneaked a glance around to see if anyone was watching, and when no one did, she gave a disgruntled stare at the man, “Mind your own food, don’t bother about me.”

Watching her father-in-law getting snubbed, Susu pursed her lips, barely holding back the smile curling up the corners of her mouth.

It seemed that the favoritism of the Lu brothers towards their wives was no coincidence; it all came from Father Lu’s example.

After the meal, Lu Xiaomei rushed to take over the chore of cleaning up the dishes, pushing her old mother and aunt to rest.

Lu Xiaogu squinted her joyful eyes, “Our little sister is truly filial and sensible, daughters are the most thoughtful after all.”

Her words resonated with Mrs. Lu.

“Indeed, when have these three annoying boys ever bought anything for me and your brother, except giving money and buying food?

All the clothes and shoes I’m wearing, aren’t they all bought by Susu? Even his father’s clothes and shoes, this child always thinks of me and her father wherever she goes.

So to say, what’s the use of having a son, in the end, they just end up listening to their wives, siding with their wives.”

Lu Xiaogu nodded, “If the daughter-in-law is good, that’s okay, but it’s terrible if you marry a home-wrecker, the house would be in constant chaos.”

“It’s true, otherwise, what does the old saying go like, ‘Marrying a good wife brings prosperity for three generations.'”

Jiang Nan, who had been all ears to every word, frowned coldly, her chest heaving with anger.

She sneered repeatedly; the old lady was really good at giving a veiled criticism; this was clearly aimed at her.

Susu looked at the family of four leaving in a hurry, completely puzzled.

“What’s going on…? Why does it look like elder sister-in-law is storming off angrily?”

Lu Xiaoting’s brows furrowed slightly, “It’s nothing, elder sister-in-law is just that way, suddenly getting upset is normal, you don’t need to worry.”

Susu, “…”

Why should I worry?

Shouldn’t I be just curious?

Provincial Machinery Factory Family Court.

Brother Lu looked at his wife who suddenly became temperamental and, not wanting to scare the girls, handed them a dollar.

“Xiao Yu, take your sister to the snack store, buy whatever you want.”

The unsuspecting sisters happily took the money and ran out.

“What’s wrong with you, wife? Why are you suddenly upset again?”

Jiang Nan’s chest heaved with anger, “Your parents are biased, and your mother was bad-mouthing me with your little aunt.”

“How so?”

“How could it not be? I heard it with my own ears, could it be false? Your mother even said that the second son’s wife is filial, isn’t that implying I’m not filial as the eldest son’s wife!

And your aunt talked about fearing marrying a home-wrecker; isn’t that indirectly referring to me…”

Brother Lu frowned, slightly upset, “Mother and Aunt surely didn’t mean that, don’t overthink it.”

“How could they not?!”

Jiang Nan glared, her emotions so stirred that she pointed randomly.

“Your parents really show favoritism, when the second brother had both a son and a daughter, they kept sending chickens and ducks, and vied to pamper the kids.

Is it just because I gave birth to two daughters? When your mother was supposed to care for me in my confinement, she showed me a long face. And in the end, what happened? She simply quit and ran straight back to the county.”

Brother Lu felt that his wife was going too far and tried to calm her with a good word.

“I won’t say anything else about it, just remember when Mother was looking after you during your confinement, you didn’t like chicken soup and pork trotters; Mother said a few words for the sake of promoting lactation and you got upset.”

“After that, you were dissatisfied with everything Mom did. You wouldn’t eat this or that. Can you blame my mom for being upset?”

“And you keep comparing Mom to your own mother. Over time, obviously, my mom couldn’t stand it. Besides, she only left after your mother came to take over.”

Jiang Nan stared at her husband, her face a mix of disappointment and disbelief, “Are you still my man? Still the father of my children? How can you take their side when you talk?”

“I’m not taking anyone’s side,…”

Seeing his wife’s eyes turning red, Brother Lu sighed and made a compromise.

“Alright, alright, don’t be angry, it’s my fault. Let’s not upset the children when they see us.”

“Daddy, Mommy, my sister and I bought a bottle of soda. Let’s drink it together.”

Upon hearing her eldest daughter’s voice, Jiang Nan quickly composed herself.

Susu had just finished feeding the twins from the triplets and watched them sucking on their fingers contentedly. She stood up and changed her clothes.

It was fortunate that people were used to making clothes bigger these days; the slightly larger Susu fit just right into her old clothes.

Although just right, there was still a twinge of sadness.

“Mom, I’m going to check on the shop and drop by to see Xian Yue,” Susu said as she wheeled her bicycle out of the house.

“Okay, go ahead, but don’t overdo it. Come back early.”

With no hoe at home, Mrs. Lu and Lu Xiaogu used little shovels to clear a patch of land in the front yard.

They planned to use the next day or two to plant some cucumbers, persimmons, and green onions. Although it was a bit late in the season, homegrown produce could save money and be picked fresh when needed.

With Lu Xiaogu, an expert at farming, the two worked with full vigor.

“Xiao Mei, I’m grateful you’re here. I couldn’t handle this alone.”

“Elder sister-in-law, crops are the lifeblood of us country folk. Seeing this big stretch of land lying fallow and not planting any grains or vegetables made me feel so empty inside.”

Lu Xiaogu’s face was filled with a genuine smile.

Small Restaurant:

Not yet lunchtime, the place was pretty empty.

“Sorry, it isn’t noon yet, the restaurant—”

Susu heard the door and peered out, her eyes lighting up at the sight of the visitor.

“Sister?”

“Sister Xian Yue, my sister’s here.”

The few busy in the kitchen quickly set their work aside and came out one after the other.

“Elder sister-in-law.”

“Sister Su.”

“Boss Su.”

Seeing the energetic employees, Susu nodded and smiled.

“Thank you, everyone, for your hard work. I’m just here to check in; you all can carry on.”

Xiao Long, Da Niu, in charge of cooking hotpot, and the lady responsible for washing dishes and cleaning all went back to their tasks.

Su Sanya said, seeing this, “Sister Xian Yue, take a seat and chat with my sister while I handle the kitchen. Don’t worry.”

Su Xianyue sat down with her pregnant belly, smiling shyly, “Thanks, Sanya.”

Su Sanya waved her hand dismissively and dashed back into the kitchen to prepare the dough.

“How are you feeling, Xian Yue? Is it too much for you? If it’s too hard, you should go home and rest early. Anyway, I can almost manage the triplets by myself now, with Mom and Little Aunt helping out.”

Susu looked at Xian Yue’s belly with concern.

Just as expected, Su Xianyue shook her head.

“Elder sister-in-law, I’m not tired at all. Sanya can handle a lot now, and she’s eager to do everything. I just need to keep an eye on things. There’s nothing tiring about that.”
