When Tong Yifei woke up in the morning, it was already very late. She didn't know what Mother Tong was busy with at home, but she was woken up by a fragrant smell. She followed the smell and ran into the kitchen. She opened the lid and a fragrant smell hit her face. Just as she was about to call Mother Tong, she grabbed the spoon and sniffed it hard. The craving worm in her stomach was completely awake.
Tong Yifei had just gone to get a bowl when someone hit her butt. Just as she covered her butt, someone slapped her head. She looked up and heard Mother Tong say," You wretched girl, you only know how to sleep all day. You don't even wake up when thunder strikes. If someone steals you at night, you won't even feel it."”
"Lazy people are blessed." Tong Yifei twisted her hips and butt again, as if she had won five million dollars. "I'm young now. I'll sleep as much as I can. I won't be able to sleep when I'm old. Besides, I don't want to sleep now.”
"That's why I said that you've already evolved into a pig. You've slept for so long that your brain is like a pig.”Mother Tong lectured Tong Yifei while holding a spoon. "It's not that I want to criticize you, but look at our neighbors. Which family's daughter doesn't marry better than you? They have money, houses, and cars."
"I treat money like dirt. Besides, isn't Lingjie quite good?”Tong Yifei said and rolled her eyes. She knew that her mother didn't like Ling Jie. Back then, she had no choice but to agree to her marriage. However, even if she tried to accept Lingjie, she could not deny that her mother would still have an opinion of Lingjie. She would always compare her son-in-law to other families.
"I didn't say that Lingjie is bad." Mother Tong said. "But look at it yourself. I'm not talking about Lingjie. People who get married nowadays don't live at home. They'll prepare a new house. I was so silly that I didn't even think about saving you."
"Forget it. The generation gap between us is too big.”Tong Yifei waved her hand. "No matter what, you will have your own opinion of Ling Jie.”Tong Yifei sighed. She seemed to have made up her mind and said to Mother Tong in a heavy tone," Mom, I promise you. Ling Jie and I will be fine. She's living better than those rich people with houses and cars.”
"I was worried about you. You have no conscience." Mother Tong smiled, but it was as unpredictable as the summer sky. "Tong Yifei, you have to remember that if you suffer any grievances, you can tell us, but you have to learn to be patient. You're all grown up now, you're no longer a child. You have to learn to be mature and think of ways to be good for your family. Don't get into conflict with your mother-in-law and don't cause trouble for Lingjie.”
"I know. Don't worry, I'm married now. I know my identity.”Tong Yifei said. She didn't dare to tell Mother Tong that she was actually still disgusted by the Ling family. For a stranger to a new living environment, it was indeed necessary to adapt. She had never been to Lingjie's house before she got married, so she had never had the chance to experience what it was like.
Before saying these words, she was also silently considering whether she could really be a good wife.
Mother Tong patted her shoulder and instructed. "I won't chat with you anymore. Hurry up and wash up. After that, come out and eat. I think your father will be back soon."
Tong Yifei walked out of the kitchen with a nervous heart. After washing up, she walked to the table and saw that Mother Tong had already started setting up the table. The table was filled with a variety of dishes, and it made people's eyes flutter. Tong Yifei walked past the table and saw four sets of bowls and chopsticks from the corner of her eye.
She stood in front of the table and called out to Mother Tong. "Mom, who's coming today? Why are there extra bowls?”
"Lingjie, he told me before he left this morning. Why? Didn't he tell you that he would be coming over in the afternoon?”Mother Tong jogged over with the dishes. When she placed them on the table, she waved her hands.
"I fell asleep in the morning." Tong Yifei said. Then, she remembered what she had told Mother Tong last night. "Mom. If Lingjie asks me to go back later, just say that you want me to stay with you for a few more days.”
"Tong Yifei, this is your fault.”Mother Tong lectured Tong Yifei. "Lingjie has come to pick you up personally. He's the one who's looking for a way out. You have to give Lingjie some face. Besides... If Lingjie's mother finds out, how will she look at you? I'll definitely find trouble with you in the future."
"I…" Tong Yifei was speechless for a long time. Her thoughts were also a mess.
Mother Tong was about to return to the kitchen to serve the dishes when she heard someone knocking on the door. She pointed at Tong Yifei and told her to hurry up. It was probably Old Tong who had returned. When she opened the door, Old Tong had indeed returned. Ling Jie followed behind him with a cheeky smile on his face. He looked really handsome and charming.
