My sister-in-law is just unhappy. She has such a personality that she can't hide it even if she wants to.
Especially the news about Feng Yuanyuan's return today. The eldest brother not only hid the news from his mother-in-law, but also from Zhao Dong. Even she was kept in the dark.
In the morning, my elder brother made a special call.
He asked her to go through the discharge procedures for Xiao Man, saying that she had prepared a surprise for Zhao Dong in the evening and the whole family would be here.
She originally thought that Sophie was coming back today, but to her surprise, it was Feng Yuanyuan who came to visit!
She was not familiar with the woman Feng Yuanyuan, but she had heard her eldest brother mention her occasionally before, saying that she was Zhao Dong's childhood sweetheart, but they lost contact after she went abroad.
Unexpectedly, after so many years of no contact, he suddenly showed up quietly.
And it comes at this sensitive time!
Ever since Sophie moved out of Zhao's house, her sister-in-law has always felt that something was wrong with the relationship between the two.
Although it is normal for young couples to quarrel, Feng Yuanyuan's appearance at this time is obviously inappropriate.
Especially her eldest brother's enthusiasm in this matter made her a little unbearable.
At the moment, Zhao Dong and Sophie are having a quarrel. As the eldest brother, instead of trying to persuade them to make peace, he is jumping up and down inside, paving the way and building bridges for Feng Yuanyuan. What is going on?
Especially Feng Yuanyuan mouthed "Brother Qing", which made her sister-in-law a little jealous.
She and her eldest brother have been married for so many years, but they have never called each other so affectionately.
She even felt that the eldest brother was getting close to Feng Yuanyuan in the name of Zhao Dong.
Feng Yuanyuan heard something strange and hurriedly answered, "Even if sister-in-law doesn't say anything, I will say it anyway."
"Brother Zhao Dong, on the way back, I heard from Brother Qing that Sister Xiaofei is well-educated and beautiful!"
"No matter how precious you are, you can't hide it forever. You have to let me see you, right?"
Zhao Dong explained, "She said she was a little busy today and might have to work overtime in the evening. I'll make a call."
With that said, he came to the corridor, hesitated for a moment, and then dialed the phone.
As expected, I called three times in succession, but no one answered.
He loves face, no matter how patient he is, he cannot withstand such torture.
Taking a deep breath, he re-entered the room and explained with a calm face, "She's working overtime tonight and won't be able to come back in time. Let's eat first without waiting for her!"
The elder sister-in-law wanted to say something, but was suddenly interrupted by the elder brother, "Yuanyuan, didn't you say you brought a gift before?"
"You still have to wait for Xiaodong to come back. Now that he is back, why don't you stop hiding him?"
Feng Yuanyuan suddenly realized, "Yes, I almost forgot!"
As she spoke, she pulled over a large suitcase.
First he said: "Xiaoman, come on, you are the youngest in the family, and the first gift is for you!"
Xiaoman didn't understand the adult world, and his father repeatedly told him not to be naughty, so he didn't talk much all night.
When he heard that there was a gift, his eyes lit up, and then he said in disappointment: "Sister Yuanyuan, I'm injured. No matter what gift you bought, I can't play with it!"
The eldest brother glared and said, "You brat, please call me aunt!"
Feng Yuanyuan said hurriedly: "Brother Qing, don't worry, I just like Xiaoman to call me that!"
"Besides, don't I look like his sister?"
As she said that, she squatted in front of Xiaoman, "Open it and take a look. My sister knew that your leg was injured and you couldn't go out to play, so she bought it specially for you!"
Xiao Man opened it curiously, but his eyes widened, "Wow, PS4!"
Feng Yuanyuan smiled and asked, "What, do you like it?"
"My sister doesn't know what games you like to play, so she just randomly found some popular games for you. Take a look. If you don't like playing, you can return them or exchange them."
Xiao Man's surprise immediately pushed the atmosphere at home to a climax.
While rubbing the basin, my sister-in-law muttered bitterly, "You little bastard, you're the same guy as your dad, you have no future!"
"When you grow up, you will probably become a master who can't walk when you see a beautiful woman!"
"I bought a broken game console without even thinking about what your aunt had done to you before!"
"Both of you are the same, heartless things!"
Her voice was not loud, but not quiet either, just enough for her elder brother to hear.
Coupled with the tone of the accusation, it was difficult for the elder brother to pretend not to hear.
With a gloomy expression on his face, he pulled his sister-in-law into the kitchen.
The range hood was turned on and the power was turned to maximum. Then the elder brother asked, "What's going on with you tonight? Is it not over yet?"
"Today, everyone is having fun with Yuanyuan, but you are the only one with a bad face!"
"To whom?"
The sister-in-law wiped her hands and asked, "What's the matter? I said bad things about your beloved sister, and you're still not happy?"
"Having a good time? I think you two are the only ones having a good time, right?"
"Our mother is not like you, and Xiaodong is not like you!"
The eldest brother warned, "It's rare for the whole family to get together today, so you'd better not talk in such a weird way here!"
The sister-in-law sneered and said in an aggressive tone, "A family? If Xiao Fei is not here, where can we have a family?"
"She, Feng Yuanyuan, has returned to China and is no longer busy in her own home. How about you hold the reception banquet in our home?"
"It's a banquet and making dumplings again!"
"Zhao Qing, why didn't I realize before that you have a lot on your mind?"
"Are I just being weird, or do you have ulterior motives?"
The eldest brother turned his head and said, "The more you talk, the more outrageous it becomes!"
"Yuanyuan is my biological sister, don't say those nonsense words in the future!"
After saying that, he opened the door and left the kitchen.
The eldest sister-in-law was extremely angry. It was her territory, but a foreign woman had taken the limelight. The more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became.
I want to go out and have a fight, but I don't have a position.
After thinking about it, she slapped her forehead hard and sent a message, "Xiao Fei, where are you?"
…
In the living room, Feng Yuanyuan took out another gift and said, "Aunt Zhao, I know that you have a bad lumbar spine. This is a fully automatic massage chair that I specially ordered from abroad. Here is the customs order and delivery card."
"I have already paid the freight and taxes. Just ask Brother Qing to pick it up when the time comes!"
Mother Zhao glanced at it and then declined: "Yuanyuan is getting more and more sensible, but I can't ask for this gift, it's too expensive."
My sister-in-law was worried and had already followed her out of the kitchen.
Especially after hearing her mother-in-law's words, she looked around curiously.
Things are really not cheap, including shipping and taxes, which cost tens of thousands of foreign currency.
She curled her lips, feeling even more that Feng Yuanyuan had bad intentions.
Okay, why do you give such a heavy gift to your mother-in-law?
Feng Yuanyuan said on the other side, "Aunt Zhao, I have already paid the money. Even if you don't want it, I can't get it back."
"If I resell it, I will lose at least half of it!"
Zhao's mother was helpless, "Then give it to your dad, Auntie doesn't need it."
Feng Yuanyuan smiled and said, "My dad also has one. I bought two, and you each have one."
Seeing that Zhao's mother wanted to refuse, her eyes turned red and she said, "Auntie, my mother had no milk back then. If it weren't for you, I would have starved to death."
"Whether you admit it or not, I have always regarded myself as your biological daughter since I was a child!"
"I haven't been filial to you for so many years, so please fulfill my filial piety!"
Mother Zhao sighed, put Feng Yuanyuan in her arms and gave her a hug.
The sister-in-law stood aside. She had no idea that Feng Yuanyuan and her mother-in-law had such a connection.
She clutched the phone tighter and tighter, and couldn't help but worry about Sophie!
