"Sister Bai, don’t rush. It’s rare for us to et, let treat you to a al." Sun Lijuan said with a smile.
Bai Fanglan was annoyed, why act so close? Who’s your sister!
But seeing her mother-in-law selling dates nearby, she didn’t want her to notice her losing her temper.
She said, "No, it’s almost New Year, I’m too busy. Maybe next ti."
"Big sister, to be honest, I want to know where my sister lives now?" Sun Lijuan said with a smile, "You know, the relationship between my sister and is not good. She doesn’t like , but I don’t want us sisters to lose contact, right? I still want to see her."
Bai Fanglan felt a stir in her heart, this woman was clearly looking to cause trouble for Sun Chan!
If it ans troubling Sun Chan, then it’s a good thing!
Sun Lijuan saw her expression and secretly rejoiced. With this woman, I can find trouble for Sun Chan. If I’m not doing well, I definitely won’t let you do well!
Bai Fanglan said with a smile, "I don’t know where Sun Chan lives, but I’ve heard she’s running a fruit stall now. Seems like it’s near the train station?"
Sun Lijuan said, "I see, thank you, I’ll go and find her. Next ti I’ll treat you to a al." Seeing Bai Fanglan’s dislike for her, she quickly and tactfully took her leave.
Bai Fanglan and her mother-in-law bought dates and a bunch of things, then headed ho walking instead of taking a vehicle.
When they got ho, before even catching a breath, Mrs. Wang said with a smile, "Let’s eat a little first, then wrap frozen dumplings. Also need to prepare chicken, duck, fish, and at, remove scales and freeze the fish, there’s so cleaning, mopping to do. So much before the New Year, hard work until the New Year’s Eve, then we can rest. The maid has gone ho for the holidays, otherwise, it wouldn’t be so tiring."
Seeing there was still so much work after a busy morning, Bai Fanglan bit her lip without speaking, her face darkened.
Even after New Year’s Eve I can’t rest, still need to accompany visits to relatives. I don’t know how the Wang Family has so many relatives! Ugh, I’m gonna go crazy at this rate.
Bai Fanglan thought for a mont and said with a smile, "My grandfather will be alone during the New Year, I want to go see him. His leg isn’t good. Though I said it’s busy here, he keeps calling, not visiting isn’t right..."
Mrs. Wang, upon hearing this, said with a smile, "In that case, visit him in the afternoon."
"Alright. I’ll try to co back early to help you with work."
Mrs. Wang thought, is this work helping ?
Bai Fanglan hurriedly tidied up, put on her coat, and left. When she returned to the Bai Family, she didn’t have ti to say much to her grandfather, she went straight to the bedroom and slept.
Bai Chuan frowned, is she exhausted? Being soone’s wife always ends up this way, this child really doesn’t understand. But then again, the Wang Family hasn’t treated Bai Fanglan, the new daughter-in-law, well either, so forget it, can’t interfere.
Mrs. Wang understood she had escaped, smiled a bit helplessly, people say having a daughter-in-law makes things easier, but still need to do things yourself.
She didn’t expect to complain, but at that mont Wang Hu called.
He asked and found out his wife went back to her maiden ho, leaving his mom to do all the work, got angry imdiately.
"Outrageous! How can a wife behave like this?" he said coldly, feeling disappointed with his wife.
Mrs. Wang said, "Your wife is exhausted, she’s never done such work before, and you say this? Let ask you, in these days, have you called her, comforted her? No, right? Don’t be like this, your cold nature is sothing your father and I are used to, but others aren’t, hearts beco cold, how will it get better? I’m waiting to hold a grandchild!"
"I understand, I’ll call her. I’ll return on New Year’s Day, stop working so hard, just buy sothing, like dumplings, there’s no need to make them ourselves." Wang Hu hung up, thought for a while but still didn’t call Bai Fanglan.
He really had no feelings for this woman, neither liked nor disliked, wouldn’t think about her when out. Even on calls, wouldn’t know what to say. Thought if she’s tired, let her rest.
When Bai Fanglan returned the next day, heard Wang Hu called but didn’t call her.
Mrs. Wang said with a smile, "He’s busy, and straightforward, I have his number. Here, call him later."
Is he angry? I’ve worked like a slave in your family for days without a nice word, and just because I wasn’t there when he called, he’s like this?
And now you want to call, am I really that cheap! She nodded with a smile but didn’t call.
So she beca even colder towards Wang Hu, worked less diligently, and Mrs. Wang just pretended not to notice.
Wang Hu returned on New Year’s Day, stayed for a day before leaving, Bai Fanglan’s deanor was indifferent, not a trace of love after reunion, didn’t glance at Wang Hu, nor did Wang Hu say any affectionate words to her.
Father Wang and Mrs. Wang frowned, said a few words to lighten the mood, the couple barely smiled and exchanged a few.
Bai Fanglan helped in the kitchen, the family of four simply ate, rested, didn’t keep watch for the New Year.
Wang Hu went to the study to discuss things with Father Wang, Bai Fanglan went upstairs to rest.
She lay in bed, couldn’t help but cry. She wanted to go ho, but Bai Chuan had gone to the provincial capital and told her, from now on the Wang Family is her ho. She wasn’t allowed to return casually.
Bai Fanglan stared at the ceiling, silently shedding tears at first, then bit the corner of the quilt and cried, her shoulders shaking. Her husband doesn’t like her, has no feelings for her, this cold ho gives her face in front of others but what else does it offer?
Her husband hasn’t even entrusted her with managing his salary. Won’t speak a word to her.
She thought of Gu Junming, how he cared for Sun Chan, vividly rembered, sothing she could never have in this life. Thinking about it made her hate Sun Chan even more, if it weren’t for that seductress enticing Gu Junming, she wouldn’t be in this unfortunate position!
In her subconscious, Bai Fanglan resolutely refused to admit that Gu Junming didn’t like her, but felt given ti she had a chance, all because Sun Chan snatched him away.
When Wang Hu went upstairs, Bai Fanglan was already asleep.
He saw Bai Fanglan’s swollen eyes, pillow damp, froze in place.
She cried during the New Year? Wang Hu felt sowhat guilty. He indeed was too harsh on Bai Fanglan. Though he didn’t like her, turning a good girl into this felt quite regrettable.
He didn’t say anything, took off his clothes, lay beside her. He reached out several tis but couldn’t bring himself to embrace her. Finally, turned over and slept.
