After transmigrating into the body of the female supporting character's biological mother, she

Deng Jing?

Absolutely impossible!

She's just a primary school teacher, where would she get such a good thing as dried abalone?

Deng Jing lowered her eyes. "It should have been brought back by my third sister-in-law."

Fan Biyun's breath hitched. "Third sister-in-law? But..."

But she was a country widow with children in tow!

Why does my mother-in-law sound like she values ​​her so much?

"Mom, I'm so sorry, we, as the older brother and sister-in-law, didn't even know our third sister-in-law sent things back. This has caused quite a stir..."

Fan Biyun changed her tune quickly, managing to wipe the slate clean with a single sentence.

Xu Yueyun said coldly, "What could you possibly know..."

"Alright," Su Bingcheng said, supporting his wife's arm. "It's the New Year, let's eat first, let's not talk about this now."

He whispered in Xu Yueyun's ear, "I'll tell them later that you scared the children."

Xu Yueyun looked at the children.

The children looked nervous and stood there trembling, afraid that their family members would quarrel.

When Su Bingcheng saw that his wife was silent, he knew that she had chosen to swallow her anger.

He also harbored resentment towards the eldest son's family, and his face darkened. He said in a deep voice, "Alright, let's eat!"

It was supposed to be a day for family reunion, but the family spent it in a dull and uninteresting way, each with their own thoughts.

After dinner, the atmosphere improved a bit when Xu Yueyun sat down on the sofa and handed out red envelopes to the children.

In the afternoon, as the two families prepared to go home, Fan Biyun stood by the door, dawdling and taking a long time to put on a single piece of clothing.

Even the child noticed and asked her, "Mommy, what are you waiting for?"

Fan Biyun's expression froze. "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm getting dressed, aren't I?"

Xu Yueyun knew exactly what she was waiting for.

In every previous year during Chinese New Year, she always took a huge amount of stuff from here.

I wasn't prepared this time, and Qing is waiting for me to get it for her.

Deng Jing was also a little surprised, but she didn't say anything. She dressed the child and prepared to go home.

Seeing that her mother-in-law still didn't react, Fan Biyun couldn't help but ask, "Mom, do you still have the abalone and other things that my third sister-in-law sent? I'm going back to my parents' home tomorrow, and I'll bring some over for them to try."

Su Ding stood behind his wife, not finding anything wrong with what she said.

Biyun's family is poor and they favor sons over daughters. If you don't bring something decent back with you, how can her family treat her well?

Su Ding was easily persuaded and had long been convinced by Fan Biyun's words.

Xu Yueyun's expression instantly darkened, and she turned her head to give Su Bingcheng a cold laugh.

Su Bingcheng's face darkened as well. He stood up. "Su Ding, come upstairs with me!"

"Dad, what's wrong?"

"Come on up!"

"Yes." Su Ding glanced nervously at Fan Biyun and followed Su Bingcheng upstairs.

Xu Yueyun beckoned to the children, inviting them to sit down. "Don't go back yet. I have something to say to them when they come down."

Deng Jing and the children were all dressed, but upon hearing this, they had no choice but to return.

Xu Yueyun looked at her eldest granddaughter, "Peipei, take your younger brother and sister to the study to read. We'll call you when your parents come home."

Su Pei glanced at her mother, Deng Jing, and seeing her nod, she then led her younger siblings to the study.

Xu Yueyun didn't want to get involved in the eldest son's family, but she felt guilty towards Deng Jing.

Because of her second child's work, he is often away from home, leaving Deng Jing to raise two children alone, which is very difficult.

Sometimes she wanted to help Deng Jing, but Fan Biyun was like a black-eyed chicken, afraid that she would suffer a loss if she didn't get enough, and wished she had eyes to stick to her.

Xu Yueyun gestured for Deng Jing to sit beside her, "Has the second brother written to me recently?"

Deng Jing shook her head slightly.

Xu Yueyun sighed and patted her hand. "If you encounter any difficulties, tell your family. Su Jue isn't here, but there are still two of us old folks at home."

Upon hearing this, Deng Jing felt a lump in her throat. If it weren't for her understanding and reasonable in-laws, she sometimes really wouldn't have been able to hold on.

Fan Biyun, who was listening from the side, curled her lip. She knew that the old lady was biased. She didn't mention the eldest sister-in-law who had passed away. She doted on the youngest sister the most, and then the second sister-in-law.

As for her husband, Su Ding, despite being the eldest son in the family, he was the least valued.

Just as I was thinking this, Su Ding's cries of pain and pleas for mercy came from upstairs.

"Ah! Dad, I know I was wrong, please stop hitting me!"

mom!

"Mom! Biyun! Come save me!"

Fan Biyun looked upstairs anxiously, "Mom..."

Xu Yueyun sipped her tea leisurely. "Sit down. Your father knows what he's doing."

Fan Biyun was so anxious that she stomped her feet, but she didn't dare to actually go up to them. She could only complain about her in-laws in her heart.

Su Ding is almost forty years old. How can she still be beaten at this age?

After waiting for another ten minutes or so, Su Bingcheng came downstairs, with Su Ding following behind him, her face pale.

Su Bingcheng sat down beside his wife, slightly out of breath.

I haven't been this active in a long time. After giving my son a good beating, I feel much lighter.

Xu Yueyun released Deng Jing's hand and let her sit down opposite him.

"Su Ding, you know about Xiao Lang's wedding, right?"

Su Ding replied with a pale face, "I know."

What did Xiao Lang give you as a wedding gift?

"..."

"Don't you remember, or are you just too embarrassed to say?"

Su Ding forced a smile and said, "A Shanghai brand watch."

Xu Yueyun: "Did you give a return gift for Xiao Lang's wedding?"

Su Ding remained silent, and when Fan Biyun tried to speak, he tugged at her sleeve.

He'd already been scolded by the old man upstairs; if he tried to argue now, the old couple would only get angrier.

Deng Jing opened her mouth, glanced at her elder brother and sister-in-law, and explained softly, "My colleague and I exchanged a bicycle ticket and even prepared two pieces of polyester fabric, but when we got the ticket, the post office was already closed."

Deng Jing and Su Lang hadn't had much contact, but she'd heard her husband, Su Jue, say that the ticket they were able to buy a bicycle for their wedding was obtained through this younger brother.

Fan Biyun scoffed, "Who would believe that? Anyone can talk big!"

"Sister-in-law," Deng Jing said seriously, "If you don't believe me, you can come back with me and see. My packages are all safely stored at home."

"you……"

"Alright!" Xu Yueyun interrupted Fan Biyun, "Just consider it boasting, but if she dares to say it in front of the elders, she won't back down. You two should also say something boastful to me."

Fan Biyun shut up.

Su Ding, being stared at by Su Bingcheng, nudged his wife's arm.

Fan Biyun had no choice but to say, "Whatever my second sister-in-law gives, we'll give too. It's best if we all give the same."

"Okay." Xu Yueyun nodded immediately and lifted her up in a flash.

Fan Biyun didn't get any abalone, and she even lost a bicycle ticket and two pieces of cloth. Her husband was also beaten. She was furious.

That wasn't the end of it. After leaving the villa, Fan Biyun insisted on following Deng Jing home, saying she wanted to see what pattern the fabric Deng Jing had prepared was, so as not to buy duplicates.

In reality, she still didn't believe she was really prepared and was determined to expose her.

Only after Deng Jingzhen took out the package and placed the contents in front of her did Fan Biyun sheepishly return home.
