Meng Yunhan, with her belly protruding, walked out of the room. It really felt odd to sit alone there.
"What are you doing here? Quickly leave, quickly leave." Yun's mother lifted her head to see her tiny daughter-in-law with a big belly.
Zhang Cuihua and Zhao Fang turned towards the door at the same time.
"Mom, I'm just checking in to see if I can help with anything."
Yun's mother waved her off. "We don't need your help. Go rest. Your sisters-in-law and I can handle things. The food may not be as good as yours, but we'll manage."
Zhang Cuihua and Zhao Fang felt a little bitter. Even as they acknowledged that this was true, it was still awkward for their mother-in-law to belittle them in front of their sister-in-law.
"Yes, Little Sister, you go rest. We've got things covered in the kitchen."Zhang Cuihua forced a smile.
Zhao Fang chimed in more naturally, "Big Sister is right. We can handle things. Go rest!"
