Capítulo 1496: Chapter 1496: Nothing but I Love You 19
“Hm, back already?” Ding’s father nodded and glanced at Ding Jinshi, who ca empty-handed, feeling secretly displeased. He thought this daughter-in-law didn’t know how to behave. Even though she was now part of the family, it was, after all, her first ti visiting her in-laws after marriage, yet she ca empty-handed.
“Busy with work?” Ding’s mother got up from the sofa and asked, “Ding Long, didn’t I tell you to bring your wife back earlier? It’s already 6:30, by the ti dinner is ready, it will be 8 o’clock.”
Ding Long was startled, “Mom, you didn’t cook? If you didn’t plan to cook, why did you ask us to co ho for dinner? If you hadn’t planned to, you should have told us earlier; we could have just made a reservation and eaten out.”
“What? Are you expecting your mom to cook for your wife? Son, I’m your mom, your wife’s mother-in-law, your elder! Is it reasonable for a mother-in-law to cook for her daughter-in-law? She married you, ca back for the first ti, shouldn’t she co early to cook a al for us, her in-laws?” Ding’s mother exploded upon hearing this, “Always eating out, eating out, does it inconvenience your wife so much to cook a al at ho?”
“Mom, Jinshi can’t cook.” Ding Long was truly getting a headache, “Besides, she just got off work, and you know, workplaces have specific ti schedules.”
Talking about Ding Jinshi’s job, Ding’s mother was not happy, “All you care about is work. A woman should take care of her husband and children after getting married. It’s not like you can’t support her as your wife.”
On this point, Ding’s father remained silent, because Ding Jinshi had a respectable job, which gave them face when ntioned. So, he quickly changed the topic, “Alright, alright, work is work, since you’re back, go ahead and cook.”
Ding Jinshi glanced at Ding Long, her face clearly saying, ‘You deal with this.’
“Mom and dad, it’s already late, as you said, we’d finish cooking and eat by 8, everyone would be starving. How about I drive you out to eat? After dinner, we can take a drive to digest a bit, and co back to rest. Plus, a friend of mine just opened a new restaurant; I was planning to take you there to try it out and support him!” Ding Long knew that Ding Jinshi indeed couldn’t cook. In the compounds, which girl knew housework? Probably not one; they were all well-raised only daughters.
“Supporting your friend can wait for another day, tonight we’ll eat at ho. Everyone’s already back, going out is a hassle, isn’t it? We’ve got all kinds of ingredients at ho.” Ding’s mother waved her hand, then looked at Ding Jinshi, “Still standing there? Are you not planning to cook, or do you want your mother-in-law to cook for you?”
“Mom, I’m sorry, I can’t cook.” Ding Jinshi’s face showed an apologetic expression.
“What? You’re married and still can’t cook? How do you two eat when you’re living alone out there? Don’t tell you expect Ding Long to cook for you after marrying him? Then why did Ding Long marry you? I was opposed to Ding Long marrying you from the start, see! Look at what he married, soone who can’t even cook a basic al.” Ding’s mother started to scold, then said, “Even if you can’t cook, you have to learn.”
“Mom, we decided to hire a maid at ho. The maid will handle household chores. Jinshi is also tired from work, and she should get more rest when she cos ho. Besides, I didn’t marry her to be my cook; I married a wife, not a cleaning lady or maid. Furthermore, Uncle Ding has only one daughter. If he finds out that I made her cook and do laundry like a maid, he would be heartbroken for Jinshi.”
