Yu Jingting got cornered by Suizi.
"How many piglets did our sow give birth to?"
Her soft voice, sharp enough to pierce the soul.
Yu Jingting put her down.
"Let's get inside quickly."
"How long have you been helping my mom sell things underhand? Do you get a commission from it?"
"Don't cling to one issue forever! It's been years!" Angrily blushed, raised his voice a bit.
His voice was already loud, when he raised the volume, it sounded like a roar.
Suizi was just a little bit brave, her brain didn't have time to react, but her body did.
Tears streamed down her face.
"Don't cry, I'm not targeting you, I don't mean that, I ——"
The more he explained, the more she cried.
Suizi didn't want to be so weak, but she couldn't control it.
Her tear threshold was much lower than others, tears always flowed on their own.
"Yu Tiegen!"
With a domineering shout, Wang Cuihua rushed out with a shovel.
She swung at him.
Yu Jingting narrowly escaped.
"Mom, I was talking to Suizi!"
"I saw from the stairs, she's talking to you nicely and you yelled at her! Since your voice is so loud why don't you go sell scrap? Your big voice is perfect for calling out for bottles, newspapers, and toothpaste tubes, what are you roaring at home for?!"
Yu Jingting was at a loss for words.
Old habits die hard, he found such a delicate wife, he couldn't change instantly.
Looking to Suizi for help, quickly, tell her I didn't bully you!
"Mom, I'm scared..." Suizi hid behind Wang Cuihua.
Wang Cuihua grabbed Suizi's hand and swung it towards Yu Jingting's face.
Suizi got a shock.
She didn't expect her mother-in-law to be so ruthless, her hand hurt from the hit, but Yu Jingting seemed unfazed, his skin was thick.
"That's for your sharp mouth!" Wang Cuihua played favorites and taught her daughter-in-law a lesson, "Don't be afraid of him, he's just a big oaf, nothing more, if he dares to yell at you again, grab whatever you can and hit him hard!"
That said, she raised the shovel in her hand, see? That's how you should do it!
Suizi shrank her neck, if this thing hits someone, wouldn't it kill them?
"Men are like this, the more honest you are the more he bullies you, the moment he shows signs of acting up, you need to strike him, if he sticks his head out, you hit him once, keep hitting until he dare not cross you! Without older women running the house, how can we live a good life? You need to stand up!"
Suizi thought of the game whack-a-mole, every mole being Yu Jingting.
"Mom, you're her mother-in-law, not her mother!" Yu Jingting retorted.
Wang Cuihua glared at him: "You said it yourself this afternoon, from now on call me 'mother'!"
Yu Jingting opened and closed his mouth a couple of times, he was speechless.
Suizi couldn't help but laugh, seeing her laughing, Yu Jingting and his mother both breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go, come in and eat, I saved you a boiled egg, it's still warm." Wang Cuihua affectionately took her daughter-in-law's hand, Yu Jingting walked in front.
His butt was suddenly kicked by Wang Cuihua, he looked back at her, his face full of question marks.
"The way you walk just irks me! So swaggering, who do you think you are, some big-shot wolf?"
Smacking your son doesn't require any reason or the right timing. You can do it any time you don't like how he looks.
Suizi found it so entertaining. Why on earth hadn't she noticed how funny her mother-in-law was in her previous life?
"Fine, gang up on me, don't expect me to work from now on and let Suizi do the farming instead."
"How dare you! Suizi is pregnant, she can't do hard labor! Unacceptable, this rascal is too much. Suizi, you're sleeping with me tonight, don't stay with him."
With her son showing such a ferocious face, Wang Cuihua felt even more suspicious about his motive. What if he inexplicably starts to take it out on his innocent wife in the middle of the night?
"Alright." Suizi really agreed to this.
"No, I don't agree, absolutely not!"
The "climbing into bed" achievement that Yu Jingting had worked all day to achieve was vetoed by his own mother right away!
"Wait until you stop bullying your wife, then we can let Suizi go back to the West Room." Wang Cuihua made the final decision, and Suizi also nodded in agreement.
Yu Jingting was so desperate he started scratching his head.
The deliciously fragrant, soft wife was right next to him, why couldn't he hold her in his arms?!
Leading Suizi, Wang Cuihua entered the room. The dining table was placed on the Kang (traditional Chinese brick bed), with a plate of dishes and several bowls on it, waiting for Suizi and Yu Jingting to eat.
The glass was made hazy by the warm air. The scene in front of Suizi was also blurred. She hadn't seen such a familiar sight in ages.
Sitting next to the table was a thin young girl, peeling an egg with her dark nails. The girl quickly swallowed the egg when she saw Wang Cuihua and Yu Jingting returning home.
"That was for your sister-in-law! Spit it out!" Wang Cuihua strode forward, reaching out to pry open Yu Jiaojiao's mouth.
The girl swallowed the egg in one gulp, showing everyone her empty mouth.
Seeing this, Wang Cuihua raised her hand to smack Yu Jiaojiao's head, but Suizi quickly stopped her.
"Mother, Jiaojiao is growing, it's good for her to eat more. We shouldn't hit a child's head."
Only then did Wang Cuihua lower her hand that she hesitated to land.
Her daughter Jiaojiao was unlike her son, she hadn't seen her father from birth till now, and Wang Cuihua always had a soft spot for her, perhaps for this reason, Jiaojiao grew up to be more and more unruly, often rendering people speechless with just a couple of words.
"Aren't you going to thank your sister-in-law?"
"Why should I thank her? She doesn't even want to be my sister-in-law." Jiaojiao crushed the leftover egg yolk and put it in the bowl prepared for Suizi.
Clearly, she wouldn't let Suizi eat comfortably since she herself couldn't eat it.
Wang Cuihua's blood pressure rose, while Yu Jingting took off his shoes and got on the Kang, grabbing his runaway sister.
"Has it been too long since you last got a thrashing?"
"Let go of me! Yu Tiegen, you're no good!" Jiaojiao struggled vigorously.
"Oh, you dare to call me Yu Tiegen now? Let's see how many teeth you have, break a few off to stop you from talking nonsense!"
Suizi also got on the Kang, used her hand to block Yu Jingting's clawing hand, took Jiaojiao into her arms:
"What will we do if you hurt Jiaojiao because you can't control your strength?"
Jiaojiao pushed Suizi away forcefully and pointed at her saying:
"I don't need your false sympathy! You look down on my brother, you look down on me, I bet you will rely on anyone who treats you nicely! Don't think I don't know, you're acting all super sweet to me today just because we have eggs to eat at home, but you'll take off once the eggs are gone!"
It was a real shock to hear these words coming from a ten-year-old child.
In her previous life, Jiaojiao didn't like Suizi and often taunted her and scared her. She took every opportunity to mock Suizi. Suizi's departure from the Yu family was, in part, due to her difficult relationship with this troublesome sister-in-law.
Running into this quirky sister-in-law again after reincarnation, Suizi's first reaction wasn't anger, but rather, envy.
Despite having two lives, she did not have the sharp tongue of Jiaojiao. The Yu family's Feng Shui seemed to be breeding warriors, from humans to poultry, none of them were pushovers.
Both Wang Cuihua and Yu Jingting's faces changed at the same time. They had always hoped that Suizi, who was timid, would finally adapt to her new home. But they didn't want this girl to scare off Suizi with just one sentence.
Suizi's reaction, however, was beyond everyone's expectations.
