Chapter 610. Eldest and Mei Jia's return
Only when she got home, her expression was still not pretty.
Her youngest son Zhou Wang said, "Mother, you don’t have to be upset. That is second branch. It has nothing to do with our family. Last time, Second Brother-in-law came, Liu Ni caused a scandal as well and Second Brother-in-law never took it seriously. ."
Wasn't this what Eldest Sister-in-law angry about?
This second branch can't stay behaved. When Second son-in-law came over, the scandal of unmarried first pregnancy broke out and spread throughout the village.
At that time, Eldest Sister-in-law's old face was completely red.
Even when the families split, they were still part of Zhou Family when such a big incident happened.
Fortunately, Second Son-in-law didn't pay it any heed and lived pretty well on that side.
So Eldest Sister-in-law didn't bother to care about second branch and their ruckus during Second Son-in-law's visit. This time, Third Son-in-law was coming back with her third daughter and they still won't stop.
How can Eldest Sister-in-law not be upset?
Second Sister-in-law happened to act up. She came over to ask her for help: "Eldest Sister-in-law, you have to help out in this matter. You have to help me persuade Miao Miao. This marriage cannot be divorced!"
If divorced, she will lose her face. Her eldest son finally married a wife from the city and earned her face. It let her to raise her head in this village. How can they divorce? If divorced, then her family's sky was going to collapse.
Eldest Sister-in-law Zhou was annoyed with her now and uttered: "Child's second aunt, you think too highly of me. After your daughter-in-law married in, your daughter-in-law has never stepped half a foot into this house. Those who don’t know about her temper would think she was a former princess. Even you, her mother-in-law, have no position in her eye. Is there any point in coming and tell me this."
Eldest Sister-in-law was not only annoy with Second Sister-in-law, but also had a bad impression of Zhou Xia's wife. It didn't matter though. Each family lived their own life and didn't bother each other.
But asking her to go over and mediate? Not happening. She didn't want to provoke and attract trouble on herself for nothing.
"If child's second aunt have nothing else, go back quickly. I'm still busy." Eldest Sister-in-law said coldly.
Second Sister-in-law could only go back. However, she was extremely dissatisfied. Now first branch had a son-in-law from the capital. So they didn't treat second branch as a relative and won't even help with such a small favor!
Eldest Sister-in-law didn't know Second Sister-in-law's thoughts. Even if she did, she was too lazy to care. Everyone was already at this age. Was it necessary to be so hypocritical.
If they can get along, then interact. If not, forget it!
Because prospective third son-in-law was visiting, Eldest Sister-in-law got Eldest Brother to bring her over to the county city on the bike.
They have to get two new sheets back. The kind that no one had used.
And also stopped by Third Sister-in-law's shop.
It was the end of year now. The business here was exceptionally good. After all, everyone got to prepare things for the New Year. The period's peak had passed.
Third Sister-in-law asked why she dropped by?
Eldest Sister-in-law told her about Zhou
She was a little bit envious when she said that. She also wanted her Wu Ni to marry into the capital. But that girl won't listen. She didn't want to go to any big city. Just wanted to teach in this small county.
Eldest Sister-in-law Zhou talked about second branch's rotten matters. According to Ma Miao Miao's unruly temper, this matter would keep dragging on.
She hoped that before Third Son-in-law arrived, the matter would be resolved quickly. Not be left unresolved.
Third Sister-in-law heard about it. Since she didn't live in the village, the impact wasn't big. However, if they lived in the village and such a matter was spread during son-in-law's visit, it would be really upsetting.
"I'm just chatting with you. I'm going to buy the sheets and quilts now." Eldest Sister-in-law said.
"Go." Third Sister-in-law nodded.
Later, she mentioned this to Third Brother. Third Brother went out to transport goods every day and knew about it. He commented: "I have seen Xia Xia's match once. A difficult person. Want Liu Ni to kowtow to her and apologize? It’ll be weird if Liu Ni can let her have her way."
That's right. Ma Miao Miao wanted Zhou Liu Ni to kowtow to her. Otherwise this matter won't end.
However, Zhou Liu Ni treated her as a green onion. When the child was lost, Zhou Liu Ni even clapped her hands and applauded. Just a step away from setting off firecrackers.
Ma Family’s parents had went over. Their attitude was pretty good. After all, Second Sister-in-law almost lowered her head to the ground and let them trample on her. They were clear what kind of temperament their daughter had.
They didn't set their eye on Zhou Xia as son-in-law because of his honesty and skilled carpentry alone. But also due to knowing what their daughter was like. Ma Miao Miao didn't know about her pregnancy. Otherwise she wouldn't be like that.
What's more, she was still young. They planned to not mind and let the matter drop.
However, Ma Miao Miao didn't agree. She demanded for Zhou Liu Ni to kowtow to her and apologize. Or else, she would get divorced!
Neither first branch nor third branch get involved. Let second branch solve their second branch's problem. What more was there to say.
Zhou Kai and Weng Mei Jia had already embarked on the train back to the capital during all the commotion in the countryside.
It was quite a distance to travel from camp to the capital. It took three days to reach the capital.
"Go to my house first, or go back to your house first?" Zhou Kai asked when they got out of the train station.
"Go see Auntie Lin and your sister first. Then drive me back when you're done." Weng Mei Jia answered.
"That's your sister too." Zhou Kai responded.
With a smile, Weng Mei Jia came out to catch the bus with him and came directly to the dumpling shop.
They hadn’t made a phone call before coming back. So when the young couple came to the dumpling shop, they surprised Third, who took over the dumpling shop once vacation began. “Yesterday Mom was wondering if you were on the ride back? Unexpectedly, you would be here today."
"Speak no more. Give us a bowl of dumplings." Zhou Kai put aside his luggage and said.
"Eldest Sister-in-law, what do you want to eat? How about lamb dumplings?" Zhou Gui Lai asked.
Weng Mei Jia shot him an amused eye-roll: "Don't chatter so much."

Weng Mei Jia shot him an amused eye-roll: "Don't chatter so much."
"There're lamb dumplings, mushroom and lean meat dumplings, egg and lean meat dumplings, and celery dumplings. What do you want to eat?" Zhou Gui Lai grinned.
"Celery dumplings." Weng Mei Jia merrily answered.
"Give me some lamb dumplings." Zhou Kai said.
"You guys go sit first." Zhou Gui Lai nimbly worked away and cooked the dumplings.
Zhou Kai asked him: "Is my little sister obedient? Clingy?"
"Obedient. As long as she is full and clean, she won't cry. She is clingy but not to other people. Only stick to Dad. She especially good at acting spoiled with Dad." Zhou Gui Lai laughed.
Zhou Kai felt a yearning when he heard this. Zhou Gui Lai spoke: "What's the rush? Eat first. After you have finished eating, you should go to the bathhouse and take a bath. Then hug her when you come back. If not, Dad won't let you hold her."
