Hearing Chen Jing's words, Ye Zhenzhen was slightly startled, and then looked at Kong Xue with a complicated expression.

In fact, she also knew that Kong Xue was very good to her. He treated her as her own sister. He often called her and cared about her life and studies, and occasionally gave her pocket money. Although Ye Zhen

Zhen never accepted it.

But Kong Xue's affection was genuine. Even if Ye Zhenzhen had some grudge against Kong Xue because she also had a crush on Chen Jing, she couldn't help but be very touched.

Yu Meixia knew what was going on, so she said, "Zhenzhen, why don't you thank sister-in-law quickly?"

Ye Zhenzhen hesitated and wanted to open her mouth to speak, but in the end she just blushed and lowered her head, still unable to call out the word sister-in-law.

"What's wrong with you kid!" Yu Meixia couldn't help but get a little angry when she saw this.

Kong Xue hurriedly said: "Aunt Xia, Zhenzhen is still young, so it's normal to be shy. Don't talk about her."

"Why are you so young? You will be old enough to get married soon, and you are still so ignorant." Yu Meixia said angrily.

Ye Zhenzhen still didn't speak, just lowered her head.

Chen Jing said at this time: "Aunt Xia, Zhen Zhen has been under a lot of pressure from studying recently, so please say less."

Hearing Chen Jing speak, Yu Meixia finally didn't say anything else, but sighed secretly in her heart, thinking that it wasn't because of you that Zhen Zhen didn't want to call Xiaoxue her sister-in-law.

Of course, it was impossible for Yu Meixia to say such words. She just thought in her heart that she would find an opportunity to have a good chat with her children.

She was originally very optimistic about Chen Jing and Kong Xue, and now that they were engaged and their parents were about to discuss marriage, Ye Zhenzhen should really put aside some of her unwanted thoughts.

"Okay, okay, let's go home first. Carrying these big and small bags is tiring." Queen Mother Lu said, and then she pulled Kong Xue towards home.

Chen Jingze followed Chen Jun and asked as he walked: "Dad, how is the excavation work at Wei Yan's tomb?"

The excavation of ancient tombs is not a short-term task. After Professor Chen completed the most important work in the early stage, the subsequent detailed excavation was naturally handed over to some archaeologists.

Their job is to ensure the complete excavation and protection of Wei Yan's tomb, which is a process that takes a long time.

Chen Jun responded: "I went over to have a look a few days ago and it went very smoothly, but there was nothing new discovered."

Chen Jingdao: "Normally, it was originally a tomb for burials, and most of the useful cultural relics are in the coffins in the main tomb."

The family chatted and soon returned home.

Empress Dowager Lu cooked a lot of delicious food and ran to the kitchen to heat it up. Kong Xue took out the gifts she had bought during this time and gave them to Yu Meixia and Ye Zhenzhen first.

"Zhen Zhen, this is the floral skirt I saw when I was shopping last time. I think it suits you very well. Do you like it?" With a smile on her beautiful face, Kong Xue took out the dress before

I'm talking about the floral skirts I'm selling.

Ye Zhenzhen looked at it, her eyes still showed her fondness. What girl doesn't like beautiful dresses?

"Yes, I like it." Ye Zhenzhen hesitated, but still responded.

Kong Xue also said happily after hearing this: "Just like it, you can definitely wear this size."

After saying that, she also praised: "Zhen Zhen, you have a good figure and you are tall. In fact, you look good in any clothes."

Afterwards, she also took out other gifts, which she bought when she went shopping. There were also many gifts from Yu Meixia, but the most were given to Ye Zhenzhen.

As a girl, there are always a lot of things you can use.

…………

The family had dinner talking and laughing.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Yu Meixia took Ye Zhenzhen back home.

As soon as she entered the door, Yu Meixia's face became serious and she said: "Zhenzhen, what's going on with you today? She didn't even say "sister-in-law", you are so nice to have so many sisters-in-law, they care about your studies and even bought you so much

There are so many things, you don’t even want to call her sister-in-law!”

Ye Zhenzhen lowered her head and bit her lip, not saying anything, but her tears had already slid down her fair cheeks and fell to the ground.

"Alas..." Seeing her daughter like this, Yu Meixia's face softened and she said softly: "Zhen Zhen, haven't you figured it out yet? It's impossible for you and your brother Xiao Jing."

After a pause, she added: "Maybe it was possible before, before your brother Xiaojing met your sister-in-law, but it is definitely impossible now. Who you meet first is also very important for this person."

Hearing these words, Ye Zhenzhen finally couldn't help it and said: "But, I obviously arrived first. Brother Xiaojing and I have known each other since we were children."

"I'm not talking about getting to know each other first, but getting involved in the relationship first. So what if you and Xiaojing have known each other since childhood? You like him, but he just treats you as his sister." Yu Meixia had already said this a bit.

It’s so straightforward and ugly.

Ye Zhenzhen bit her lip and said: "I, I just can't give in, Mom, why, why did she suddenly appear and snatch away brother Xiao Jing? Obviously, it should be me."

Yu Meixia sighed and said: "There is no such thing as obvious and should. Things like relationships are not destined. Sometimes people who have been in love for many years may suddenly fall in love with someone else. What does your unrequited love mean?"

"And your sister-in-law is really nice to you. To put it bluntly, if Xiaoxue had not been your sister-in-law and had been replaced by a not-so-good woman, Mom's selfishness might also be towards you and support you to give it a try.

Xiao Jing snatched it over, but as for Xiao Xue, Mom’s selfish intentions are no longer towards you, because she is really nice, so good that Mom even thinks she is more suitable to be with Xiao Jing than you.”

Yu Meixia also revealed the truth and said: "Do you think Mom has never thought about asking Xiao Jing to be my son-in-law and call me Mom? But things are unpredictable, and not everything in this world can be just what you want.

People have to learn to accept their fate, do you understand?"

Ye Zhenzhen was speechless for a moment when she heard her mother's words, she just sobbed in a low voice.

After a moment, she said: "Mom, I know she is very good, and I am very grateful to her. I even think she is very suitable for Brother Xiaojing, but I just feel uncomfortable. I look at her and Xiaojing

My brother looks so sweet, and it makes my heart hurt."

"Oh, this is normal. How can anyone calmly watch the person they like being sweet to others? But no matter how uncomfortable it is, you have to learn to accept it, you know?"
