Reborn in the Seventies: Pampered Wife, Owning some Farmland

Chapter 261: Chapter 261: Without Comparison, There is No Harm_1
 

Indeed, it was succinctly put in three words.

That impressive?

He guessed it before I even said it?

“Xiaoyun, do you know what university your wife has gotten into?”

Yun Hao coolly spit out a few words, “Kyoto University Law School.”

Uncle Gu’s smile couldn’t hold back. Were Yun Hao and his wife perfectly in sync?

“That’s no fun.”

“Uncle Gu, let’s have a drink when you’re free.” Yun Hao said, leaving.

Finally, Uncle Gu let out a sincere smile, but his joy didn’t last long when he thought of one thing: his sister was not at the army barracks, so who can he get to cook for him?

What a strategic blunder!

Blunder or not,

Life goes on.

This New Year’s Eve.

Yun’s mother woke up early with Yun’s father to tidy up. It was New Year’s Eve and both their sons were coming home. They wondered if Huzi and his mother would come too?

“Old man, will Yunhan bring Huzi back home today?”

Mother Yun was uncertain if they could return, she helplessly asked Father Yun.

“They will come back. Yunhan is very organized, she will come back.” It was New Year’s Eve, they were sure to come back. But they are probably only able to stay till lunch before leaving.

They might not come back for the New Year’s Eve reunion go today, and will only come for a visit on Lunar New Year’s day.

“Daughter, bring some of the wine you brewed before for your father-in-law.”

Meng Yunhan took out the bottle of wine and started pouring.

They also prepared some pastries, their own fried dry fruits and some candies, one of each. That made one big bag.

When they were leaving, Meng Yunhan was carrying Little Huzi in front, and a carrying basket on her back.

“Father, wait for me to come back and stay up the night with you.”

Seeing Little Huzi, the old master started nagging Meng Yunhan, “It’s New Year’s, for some things, we’ll tolerate and let them pass, suffering is a blessing.”

He meant for Meng Yunhan to not quarrel with her two sister-in-laws during the New Year period.

“Father, I understand, don’t worry.”

On the way, there were few people on the street because of the cold weather.

But the chilly winter day was decorated with festive cheer.

“Meng Zhiqing, you’re returning for the New Year’s Eve reunion!”

Came carrying so many things.

“Yes, I’m bringing my child back for the reunion. Little Huzi has yet to pay respect to his ancestors.”

There was no choice. At this time, there was an emphasis on respecting their ancestors, especially during the Lunar New Year.

During Lunar New Year, every household was busy and there wasn’t much gossiping going on.

But there were some gossipy women, discussing with their neighbors about the situation, “I saw that Meng Zhiqing’s carrying basket was filled to the brim.”

“Yes, I saw it too, both sister-in-laws Zhang Cuihua and Zhao Fang only brought back a little meat for the New Year reunion.”

There’s no hurt without comparison.

Upon comparison, the hurt becomes obvious.

All are daughters-in-law, some bring back loads of things in big and small bags, some even used a carrying basket, while you only carry one thing in your hand for the New Year reunion, this is the difference.

Because it’s winter, the sun only rose at eight. The journey took some time, when they reached Yun Family’s home it’s already ten.

Zhang Cuihua had also arrived at the Yun family with her children. Seeing Meng Yunhan carrying a basket and comparing what she had in hand, Zhang Cuihua felt like hiding her things.

“Auntie…” As soon as Meng Yunhan arrived, Erniu timidly looked back at her mother before calling out weakly.

“Erniu, sister-in-law.” She politely greeted with a hint of estrangement.
