"Exactly, Second Aunt is right. There's a lot of street food vendors outside our school and a bookstore opened nearby last month, much cheaper than Xinhua Bookstore. They're all individually owned." Hu Dong said with a frown, holding his bowl.
"Alright, let's hurry up and eat." Shen Qing picked some food for Hu Dong, signaling him to stop talking, then turned to Zhang Huilan and said, "If Big Sister-in-law dislikes doing business, then she'll just keep crying to Mom about having no money in the future."
"Fine, fine, I was just joking with Xiao Wan. Third Sister is just being protective." Zhang Huilan was furious inside. What she said was true—it was just showing off how everyone is stronger than her family. Normally, they don't care much about her son, but now she's defending the newlywed daughter-in-law.
Shen Haitao, aware of his wife's sharp tongue, pretended not to see the bickering among the women and focused on serving food to his mother.
