Ye Shuying..., a new son-in-law? Living so close and I had no idea? This won't do, I've got to meet him, maybe my son could snag some extra red envelopes.
Ignoring her two sisters' teasing, she had no interest in making small talk with her mother. She wanted to meet her aunt's husband first.
She was curious to see, after much selection and scrutiny, just what kind of son-in-law her eldest brother and sister-in-law had found for their niece.
Ye Shuying hurried out the door, checking her hair and clothes before entering the living room.
Upon her entrance, all eyes turned to her, except for her son, who was engrossed in his food...
What a clever boy, much smarter than her, knowing right away to look for food. Kids really have it easy, not worrying about others' gazes!
She too wished she could eat first: "Eldest brother, sister-in-law, do we have guests?"
Hongji didn't particularly care for this sister, but he maintained decorum in front of guests, merely nodding: "Hmm."
