"Alright, second sister, there’s no need to invest too much emotion into an old lady who doesn’t like you. To put it bluntly, she’s your man’s mother, not yours! You’ve been married into the Fan Family for so many years, don’t you know what Old Lady Fan is like?"
"Ah..." It’s precisely because she knew that Xie Jinghong felt so irritated!
Absolutely maddening.
"In my opinion, as long as you get by with saving face, that’s enough. What’s most important is Brother Jiefang’s attitude. If he can see things clearly, then you don’t even need to deal with Old Lady Fan. He’ll sort his own mother out. You just need to take care of your own little family!"
"Really?" Xie Jinghong asked with half-belief, half-doubt.
"Wait and see," said Yan Jinsu, with a slight shrug of her shoulders and her hands spread out.
What else could Xie Jinghong do but nod helplessly?
"Hey, your mother-in-law is really not the main issue. The key is to have a loving relationship with Brother Jiefang; with that, no problem is too big!"
"Go on, stop talking nonsense." Xie Jinghong’s cheeks turned bright red from Yan Jinsu’s offbeat jokes.
"Oh, second sister, are you getting shy? What’s there to be shy about? All men in this world are the same. When a couple’s relationship is good, the children will truly benefit! Look, from ancient times to now, which era’s men were not lecherous?"
"Yeah, yeah, you’re right."
Even Xie Jinghong, no matter how slow, understood the meaning behind Yan Jinsu’s words by now.
Mothers-in-law can’t stand to see their sons protect their daughters-in-law. That makes sense when you think about it.
Recalling her own situation, it really seemed that the more Brother Jiefang protected her, the more displeased her mother-in-law became towards her!
And her brother-in-law rarely talks to Li Xiaoxia; they don’t have much interaction as a couple at home. Unlike Brother Jiefang, who would always check on her and the kids first when he got home—
So, her mother-in-law’s big issue with her was because she felt her eldest son had been completely bewitched by this vixen herself?
It suddenly struck her that when her mother-in-law scolded her yesterday, she seemed to have called her a vixen too. At that moment, she wanted to ask how exactly she was being a vixen!
So that’s the crux of the matter...
"It’s true. When a couple’s relationship is good, if the husband has any peculiar behaviors, the wife will immediately notice. If one cannot perceive any change in their partner, that means they don’t really care as much as they show!
Another thing, only when a couple is united can children receive complete parental love. Otherwise, lacking care from either side, it’s bad for the children’s physical and mental development and can lead to extremism!
Just like how your mother-in-law gets extreme on impulse, people who see that would just think she’s crazy, not like a normal person."
Yan Jinsu was indirectly scolding Fan Family’s widow with these words.
Xie Jinghong listened with a thoughtful expression.
Seeing the puzzled look on her older sister-in-law’s face, Yan Jinsu’s lips twitched—was her own husband some Alien Species from the Xie Family? Why, even though her husband appeared so shrewd and calculating, did all his siblings seem so plain and simple?
Could it be that all the wiles of the Xie Family had been transferred onto Xie Jingchen?
"Second sister, I want to remind you that it doesn’t matter how outsiders view you; what’s important is your relationship with your brother-in-law. When Brother Jiefang arrives later, you need to talk it out with him properly, don’t be capricious. What’s more important than the future of the children?"
"Fan Jiefang is coming?" Xie Jinghong exclaimed, looking up at the sky to see that it had already turned dark, and the stars above shone brightly, she reflexively countered, "That’s not possible..."
Before her words could finish, she was immediately proven wrong.
