Chapter 66: Chapter 66: Greedy for profit from early on_1
As for Zhao Fang, she was quick-witted and shared the same thoughts, knowing that her mother-in-law would surely admonish her due to what Yun Lei had told her the previous night.
“Mother, this sister-in-law is just pregnant, and you’ve had the experience. With you by her side, she’ll surely give birth to a chubby child.” Zhao Fang was intelligent not to specify a son or a daughter.
Fearing that she might commit a faux pas later.
Zhang Cuihua cast a deep look at her second daughter-in-law. Having been sisters-in-law for so many years, how could she not know her character?
Thinking of Yun Lei reminded her of Yun Hai. Both were daughters-in-law of the Yun family. Yun Hao, her third brother-in-law, treated Meng Yunhan, his wife, so well, even though they had only met a few times. Usually indifferent, he was so kind and gentle to her, and so was the second brother to his wife, albeit she was stingy. Consequently, every time she was criticized by Yun Hai, saying, “You are the eldest sister-in-law, and you should yield to these two,” she was infuriated.
Why should she, as the eldest sister-in-law, have to give in? Why couldn’t the other two yield to her?
No matter how envious she was, Zhang Cuihua had to swallow her resentment.
Life had to go on.
Setting everything else aside, Yun Hai was quite excellent, otherwise, her parents wouldn’t have allowed her to marry him.
“Sister-in-law is physically weak, mother. If there is anything, just call me.” Zhang Cuihua thought that since her third brother-in-law was a military cadre, her son might also become a soldier in the future, so she better maintain a good relationship with them. The sister-in-law was actually very nice – gentle and beautiful, and all the children liked her at home.
Zhao Fang cast a deep glance at Zhang Cuihua.
She was surprised that the eldest sister-in-law would say such words today, but when she thought about the third brother-in-law, she immediately understood.
“Mother, the eldest sister-in-law is right. If you need anything, just let us know.” Zhao Fang quickly echoed Zhang Cuihua’s words.
Over the years, how would Yun’s mother not know her daughters-in-law’s temperament?
But hearing them say this, she was quite satisfied.
Although they had some small ulterior motives, they were all for their own families, which she, as a mother-in-law, could disregard.
“Good.”
Seeing that it was getting late, they didn’t delay much before leaving.
However, Meng Yunhan ran into Wang Minfang on the way.
Looking at Wang Minfang’s manner, it seemed she had intentionally waited here for her. But what did she want to say?
“Meng Yunhan…”
Meng Yunhan slightly raised her eyes to look at Wang Minfang and asked indifferently, “What’s the matter?”
Wang Minfang didn’t like Meng Yunhan acting like this, envious of her being a teacher, not afraid of the sun or rain, yet realizing that she was pregnant now, she might not be able to handle the job as a teacher.
Seeing her calm and unruffled demeanor, Wang Minfang was incredibly envious.
If she hadn’t married Yun Hao, how could she have such a comfortable life now?
Who didn’t know that Yun Hao was a military cadre and received allowances every month?
As soon as she remembered that Meng Yunhan was married to a man who was always risking his life, capable of losing it at any time, she was no longer envious.
“I heard you’re pregnant, congratulations.” Wang Minfang suppressed her unhappiness, a forced smile on her face. To outsiders, she appeared genuinely congratulatory.
However, having struggled in society for so many years, Meng Yunhan was sensitive to emotions and could tell.
She knew that Wang Minfang disliked her, and that by cornering her here today, she certainly wanted to find out something from her.
After all, a person like Wang Minfang was always seeking her personal gain.
Meng Yunhan responded distantly yet politely, “Thank you!”
