The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 231 Her Affirmation

Chapter 231 Her Affirmation
As dawn broke, the streets began to bustle with people.

The morning light was not harsh; it filtered through the branches, dispelling the night and leaving dappled silver light on the ground. The mist lingered in the air, like wisps of silk, sometimes thick and sometimes thin.

As the peddler's cries echoed through the streets, Aunt He's voice rang out again from next door.

"Second son's wife, you can't pay up yet? Do I have to nag you?"

Aunt He knocked on the door.

“In the past, the three of you shared the chores at home. Now that the third son’s wife is heavily pregnant, I’ve decided that you and your eldest sister-in-law should do more work. Your eldest sister-in-law is already busy in the kitchen. If you don’t want to, just tell me.”

No need to work in the fields, no need to feed chickens or pigs.

"There's so little work to do around the house, how could I let you get tired!"

"Sisters-in-law help each other out, so don't be too calculating! If you get pregnant again in the future, will your third son's wife just abandon you?"

With a creak, the young woman hurried out of the house.

"Mother, I forgot."

"How could I dare to complain? I'll go cook right now."

Aunt He sneered, too lazy to expose her.

Actually, she can cook for her whole family.

But she's suffered half her life and now she has a daughter-in-law.

No way.

She doesn't care whether the food tastes good or not.

As long as the food isn't wasted or stolen to supplement her family's income, she won't interfere.

Aunt He put her hands behind her back.

"Your sister-in-law has almost finished cooking, does she need your help?"

idiot.

All they ever do is slack off.

If she doesn't take care of it, will the eldest daughter-in-law feel at ease in the long run?
"You blind fool, hurry up and sweep the floor."

Woman: "Oh, okay."

"and many more."

Aunt He thought of something: "Your mother's birthday is in a few days. Your second son won't be able to come back to accompany you. I'll make sure you get the gifts you need. There won't be anything missing."

“If you want to go back a few days earlier to help, that’s fine too. But the child is still young and can’t be separated from his mother. I can’t keep him from being coaxed. You’d better take him with you so your mother can see her grandson.”

"But there's one thing you need to remember. During the days you were away, your sister-in-law was the one who took care of everything..."

The second daughter-in-law, usually so dense, was surprisingly clever.

"Don't worry, Mother. Last time my sister-in-law went back to her parents' home, I was busy for several days. After she came, she let me rest for a few days. It's the same for me this time."

Aunt He's complexion improved considerably.

She took out the money she had prepared from her sleeve.

“The money you men earn is now all in my hands and kept safe. How can you manage without money? Take it. You can decide what to buy for your family. Don’t ask me for less if it’s too little, and keep the extra for yourselves.”

"Yes!"

The little woman happily took the baby into her arms, and she even had the energy to sweep the floor. After sweeping, she even took the initiative to wash the clothes.

Aunt He watched her retreating figure and shook her head.

She went into the kitchen.

"The boss's wife."

"Mother, I understand."

The woman was cooking porridge: "Mother is fair in her dealings. The money she gives to my younger brother and sister-in-law will definitely be the same amount she gave me before."

Although my mother-in-law is fierce, she is fair in her dealings.

Otherwise, this family would have fallen apart long ago.

"I've cooked quite a bit of porridge. Would you like some to be sent over to the neighbors?"

Aunt He was satisfied.

"No need to give it to her."

"That girl is very picky."

"Her breakfast consists of either plain white flour buns or meat buns."

Yu Tingwan is sitting in the courtyard right now.

The girl raised the bronze mirror and looked at herself.

My lips are all chapped.

How could he do that!
It was as if he wouldn't be satisfied until he swallowed her whole.

I already said no, we can't kiss anymore.

But he opened his eyes and asked her if she was being sarcastic.

She insisted that she liked it.

Although... although I liked it at first.

But she couldn't take it anymore.

“Yao girl.”

Someone is shouting outside.

Yu Tingwan looked dejected, like a ravaged begonia. She went to open the door.

Aunt He narrowed her eyes. Her gaze lingered briefly on the corner of her lips.

Youth is wonderful; they don't know how to rein themselves in. But I can understand.

As Yao grew up, she became incredibly beautiful and delicate.

"Where's your man?"

Yu Tingwan stepped aside to let her in, gritting her teeth as she said, "Go out."

"Have you eaten breakfast? If not, then..."

Aunt He stopped talking.

She saw various steaming foods laid out on a stone table under the grapevines.

Good, good, they're harder to raise than when they were little.

A look of satisfaction appeared in Aunt He's eyes.

It's clear that this girl is indeed doing well.

"Your man is nice."

"This house was a gift from him. He's willing to be generous to you and care about you. There aren't many people like that anymore."

"It was too late yesterday, so we didn't talk much. Your aunt came over to catch up with you."

Yu Tingwan pursed her lips, her voice gentle and soft: "I heard your aunt scolding your daughter-in-law early this morning, aren't you afraid they'll hold it against you? When you get old and your aunt can't get out of bed, she'll abandon you."

"You treat them well, but you still have a bad temper. If your daughter-in-law doesn't appreciate it, you'll suffer the consequences."

If someone else had said this, they would have probably meant to watch the show, and Aunt He would have scolded them for being nosy.

But that's what Yu Tingwan said.

That's different.

The girl said those words because she was afraid that Yao would suffer in the future.

She waved her hand dismissively.

Don't worry.

“I personally selected all three of my daughters-in-law. Everyone has their flaws, more or less. But when it comes to anything, they are all honest and kind-hearted.”

The eldest son's wife is the most quick-witted.

The second son's wife is clumsy with words, but thinks she's the smartest. Aside from being lazy, she's easy to talk to.

The third son's wife... is just a mud doll.

Although, sometimes it makes her feel bad.

Aunt He glanced at Yu Tingwan and said, "You don't understand. My family is considered to have few problems, and they wouldn't have any ulterior motives."

"Do you remember the Lu family who lived around that corner?"

Yu Tingwan thought for a moment.

"The Lu family, who had six sons?"

Aunt He slapped her thigh.

"Correct!"

"Back then, the sons of the Lu family were always eyeing the meat in your bowl."

"That old hag from the Lu family said behind your back many times that your mother couldn't give birth to a son, and couldn't bear to see you and your daughter doing well. She wanted your father to divorce you and remarry."

"In her younger years, she would tell everyone that she was capable and had six sons in a row. After they grew up, all she could do was enjoy the good life."

Aunt He looked disdainful as she said this.

"Life is tough these days."

“Now that her sons are grown up, they all complain that she’s a burden and that she’s sick and that seeing a doctor is expensive.”

“Nobody wanted to support her. The old house was left to the eldest son, and after the family split up, she followed the eldest son’s family, but she was always hungry. She went to the second son’s house, walked in, was carried out, and thrown onto the street.”

"His later years were very miserable."

Aunt He straightened her back and said, "I'm different. All my sons are filial, and although my daughters-in-law are afraid of me, they respect me in private."

"It's clear I'm good at training people!"

“Yao girl, you’re married now. Your aunt is willing to teach you.”

What a joke.

Why would she learn this stuff?

Yu Tingwan was very disdainful.

next moment.

She was extremely reluctant.

"I'm not one either, so I can't learn from them."

"Then listen carefully, your aunt will teach you how to discipline a man."

"No need for that."

Aunt He was taken aback: "You're pregnant?"

Do you want to be disciplined by your son?
