By this calculation, they have quite a few dumplings to make.
On this side, Jiang Ran was also getting ready to help make dumplings, but Wang Cuilan refused her.
"Ranran, you go play with Little Jing. We don’t need you here, and Pei Huai, you don’t have to lend a hand either. Just keep them company over there."
Since Wang Cuilan said so, Jiang Ran didn’t refuse and agreed, heading to the living room with Pei Jing and Pei Huai.
Over there, Pei Baoshu, his two sons, grandson, and granddaughter were all sitting on the sofa.
Seeing Jiang Ran’s family of three coming over, Pei Baoshu actually snorted.
Jiang Ran felt puzzled and then heard Xu Yufen’s voice from the other side.
"Sister-in-law, not that I’m telling you what to do, but you make Pei Huai rest, and that’s right. Which head of the family spends all day in the kitchen?"
"Not just Pei Huai, even Pei Yang and the second one should go and rest."
"But this Jiang Ran, being a daughter-in-law, should be working at this time, how can she just rest! You’re the mother-in-law and you’re not resting, so how can she! This won’t do!"
Jiang Ran, "..."
Jiang Ran had been trying to speak as little as possible today, but after hearing this, she really couldn’t hold back anymore.
What’s up with this Xu Yufen?
Without Jiang Ran opening her mouth, Wang Cuilan was already retorting.
"Ranran may be my daughter-in-law, but she’s no different from a daughter. I’m willing to let Ranran rest, she was busy all morning, what’s wrong with her taking a break now?"
"S... Sister-in-law, I’m saying this for your good. If you don’t appreciate it, fine, but how could you say that to me, it really breaks my heart."
"Let me tell you, a daughter-in-law is not the same as a daughter, she’s someone else’s family, how can she be on the same page with us? You can’t take it lightly; you have to be cautious! Talk about Pei Yang and Shanshan, they’re not even married yet. If you’re not careful, what about when these kids get married?"
Seeing Xu Yufen speak more and more nonsensically, Wang Cuilan directly interrupted her.
"Alright! Enough! If you keep talking, there’s no need to wait till after New Year’s, just leave now!"
Wang Cuilan was also somewhat helpless.
Since moving to beishi, life had been much more peaceful.
Although there were quite a few neighbors nearby, when everyone had nothing to do, they would chat outside together.
But meddling in other people’s family business? That really hasn’t happened.
Wang Cuilan couldn’t even remember the last time someone talked to her like that.
Listening to Xu Yufen babbling now, Wang Cuilan was simultaneously angry and amused.
Some people, the moment they open their mouths, start babbling nonsense, yet they believe they’re completely in the right.
If others don’t listen, it’s as if others are wrong, are the stubborn ones.
Unbeknownst to them, in others’ eyes, she’s the real fool.
Wang Cuilan couldn’t be bothered to argue with Xu Yufen, she just hoped Xu Yufen would keep quiet.
Originally, she thought that staying in beishi this year, they could have a peaceful New Year.
Yet, unexpectedly, it might have been better than returning home.
Xu Yufen was frightened by Wang Cuilan’s threat, and didn’t continue babbling.
But judging by her expression, it was obvious she was not convinced.
Whether Xu Yufen accepted it or not, Wang Cuilan didn’t care.
The fact that she kept her mouth shut already made Wang Cuilan very pleased.
