Chapter 558: Chapter 558 Cold-Faced Yama_1 Chapter 558: Chapter 558 Cold-Faced Yama_1 The children were eating merrily.
“Mom, Dad…” Yun Men returned home only to find that the children were missing, which worried her. She thought that since her sister-in-law had returned, she might have taken the children back with her to her parents’ home. When she went to check, she found them having dinner.
Upon seeing her younger sister-in-law’s face stained with food, Meng Yunhan called her over. “Come and eat, Xiaomen, I made these buns and fish balls.”
“Sit down and eat. I brought food back,” Yun Hao said with a solemn face.
Regardless of what his two sister-in-laws say, if they didn’t want to give the food, they shouldn’t have given it to mom and dad. Since they did, they should allow mom and dad to distribute it themselves.
“Listen to your brother, sit down and eat!” Their mother, distressed for her daughter, especially seeing Yun Men only a few years older than Hanhan, looked much older in comparison.
Yun Men had already been tempted by the delicious smell of the food, but she was hesitant to take part because of what happened last time. She didn’t want her sister-in-laws to have another reason to criticize her.
“The buns made by my third sister-in-law are delicious.”
Meng Yunhan said with a smile, “If you like them, eat more. I made lots of them.”
All the children were happily eating the fish balls, one bowl per child.
Meng Yunhan had turned about five pounds of fish, sans the bones, into nearly three pounds of fish balls.
Yun Men watched the children eating with great relish.
“Little Huzi, this is your aunt…”
Little Huzi turned to look at Yun Men and greeted her sweetly, “Hello Auntie.”
“Hello, Little Huzi.”
Yun Men felt a pang in her heart. She compared Little Huzi to her own children and realized that her sister-in-law was better at taking care of children. Little Huzi was chubby, fair and radiant while her own children were somewhat tanned and thin.
“Take some buns home for Zhang Jiang!” Their mother knew that white flour was likely a rare luxury for her daughter.
“Mom, I can’t do that.”
“You can.” Yun Hao uttered a single word.
Yun Men glanced at her elder brother, unsure why, but felt that this time, he appeared even more stern and distant than usual.
When Yun Men left, she carried several buns back home with her.
This scene was witnessed by someone.
The information was then conveyed to Zhang Cuihua and Zhao Fang.
“Shitou, we bring our parents a monthly allowance and they don’t mind sharing it with our sister, but they didn’t even invite our children.” Zhao Fang was purely complaining. She felt their in-laws were unfair. They used the provisions they brought to compensate her sister-in-law’s family instead.
Yun Lei looked at Zhao Fang, “Did we bring any white flour? That was what Yun Hao and his wife brought home. If you have the guts, go ask mom to give you some and see if she will.”
Zhao Fang was instantly silenced by his words. How could she dare to when there was a stone-faced tyrant at home?
“Our mother favors Xiaomen and doesn’t even consider our children. A married daughter is like spilled water.”
Yun Lei slapped the table in anger, “Zhao Fang, don’t you forget. You’re also a married daughter, like spilled water. Yet every time we go back to your parents’ house, you always carry something back. You know the condition of our little sister’s family. How could you, their sister-in-law, behave like that? Do I need to remind you?”
Zhao Fang’s face turned grim.
She thought about her encounter with Yun Hao today and his icy demeanor. She feared he must have heard about what happened to her little sister last year.
This was truly a disgraceful situation.
Watching Yun Lei’s retreating figure, Zhao Fang seethed with anger.
They gave money for the family’s upkeep and it was immediately used to help their sister. Of course, she felt resentful and expressed her dissatisfaction. How was she to know it would cause such a fuss? Was it her fault?
