Rebirth to the Eighties to Get Rich - Chapter 144: Mother Su’s Success in Old Age

Chapter 144: Mother Su’s Success in Old Age

After the first few days, Su Danhong could eat normal food.

It was not a bad idea to ask Mother Su to stay over here. Basically, she arranged all the family’s affairs smoothly, and basically no one needed to help her.

The meals were also quite good. The important thing was that Ji Jianyun explained to her that she must not be reluctant to spend any money. Their family did not lack any, and he wanted the best for his wife.

Ji Jianyun’s wife was still Mother Su’s daughter. The conditions of her son-in-law’s family were so good, so why would she be reluctant to spend?

Ji Jianyun was used to his wife’s good cooking, but he was also very satisfied with his mother-in-law’s cooking.

Even Renren ate happily.

Renren’s relationship with Mother Su was quite so-so before. He was still young and he didn’t understand that she was his grandma. Now that Mother Su had lived with him at home, he was more familiar with her. His grandma would give him candy from time to time, which made him smile happily. He liked his grandma a lot.

Su Danhong’s confinement benefited the whole family. Mother Su started to cook chicken soup to replenish her health. She made one chicken a day. However, Su Danhong couldn’t eat so much. She ate one chicken leg and two bowls of chicken soup.

The rest was shared with the family.

So during Su Danhong’s confinement, Mother Su, Ji Jianyun, and Renren, and including Dahei, who was guarding the family, all became fatter.

When confinement was over, Mother Su stopped staying over and went back. *∞:｡.｡ 𝘗𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥 𝘢𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘹𝘢𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘤.𝘤𝘰𝘮 ｡.｡:∞*

Ji Jianyun also knew that his mother-in-law could not stay any longer. Thus, when she was about to go back, he gave her 50 yuan. After that, he gave her two roosters and a basket of strawberries, and drove her back to the village.

Mother Su was very proud when she went back. Which old woman in the village had ever sat in a big truck? But she had!

However, Mother Su still gathered a group of old sisters together and complained. She said that she was not used to riding in that truck. Her son-in-law insisted on driving her since she took care of her daughter during confinement. But it was normal to do so since it’s her own daughter. It’s okay for her to take care of Su Danhong as her mother.

But this son-in-law was too filial. She didn’t mention how much money he gave her. However, everyone saw the two roosters and the basket of fresh strawberries. Above all, they saw how Mother Su had come back in a month glowing!

They felt that Mother Su had less white hair, and her face was also rosy and bright. They saw that she had been eating extremely well!

“I didn’t eat anything good either. Jianyun loves his wife and insists that she eats one chicken a day. I was so distressed by this. How could Danhong ray that much? She ate so much that she was scared when she saw the chicken. I had no choice but to help her eat some, otherwise it would be too wasteful,” Mother Su said this to the older sisters.

Aside from how each and every old sister was envious, eldest Su sister-in-law was envious to the side.

One chicken a day. When she did confinement, she ate a total of two chickens. There were not that many chickens available in the village!

And yet her sister-in-law could eat chicken until she became afraid of it. How could eldest Su sister-in-law doubt the truth of what her mother-in-law said? She saw how much fatter her mother-in-law was compared to a month ago. Besides that, she was familiar with her brother-in-law’s personality. He was a person who doted on his wife.

Su Danhong didn’t have one chicken available to eat a day. Sometimes, it was two a day.

She sighed. In the end, her life was not like her sister-in-law’s life, which was too good to be true.

Mother Su bragged enough and took in the envy and jealousy of the group of old sisters. Only then did she take eldest Su sister-in-law home contentedly.

As soon as they got home, Mother Su asked, “How were things at home?”

“Mother, I asked Dabao to write it all down. Wait a minute and I’ll bring you the account book. Dabao had recorded it clearly.” Eldest Su sister-in-law immediately braced herself. She knew that her mother-in-law was going to start checking things.

But this time she was very confident, and she was not afraid of her mother-in-law looking through everything.

Mother Su took her word for it and called her grandson, Su Dabao, over and asked him to read what was recorded.

Su Dabao read it.

Everything was recorded clearly from how many eggs they got to how many eggs they saved for second brother-in-law to take.

Mother Su also knew how many eggs her chickens could lay, so she was quite satisfied after listening. Eldest Su sister-in-law was a little nervous. Mother Su said, “Go kill the rooster and stew it for tonight.”

“Yes, mother!” With that, eldest Su sister-in-law spoke so happily. She knew that she had passed!

“Yay, I’m going to eat meat, I’m going to eat meat!” Su Dabao was also very happy. Su Erbao and Su Sanya had arrived. They heard that their grandma had come back and was told she had brought roosters and strawberries. They couldn’t wait to see her!

As soon as they got to the door, the kids heard what their eldest brother said, and they were  immediately very happy.

“All right, you guys, quiet down,” Mother Su said.

As soon as she said that, all three grandchildren were quiet.

Mother Su went to get the strawberries and gave each of them a handful. She kept the rest in a locked cupboard to eat tomorrow. Then she went out with half a basket of strawberries.

When she came back, the strawberries in the basket were gone. The Su family had many relatives. Eldest Su sister-in-law knew that it was to their family’s benefit, and she didn’t say anything. After all, this was her mother-in-law’s business.

Relatives in the village did not gossip about Su Jinjun because of what Mother Su did even though eldest sister-in-law realized what her husband’s personality was like. It was clear to her that her mother-in-law had done a good job to stop the gossip.

Besides, it was just some strawberries. As long as it was not meat, she did not care.

In her point of view, meat was not allowed to be given to others.

In the evening, Su Jinjun also came back. He smelled stewed chicken all over the yard as soon as he walked in.

“Mother, are we having chicken stew tonight?” Su Jinjun’s eyes were shining.

If this was the past, Mother Su would have certainly given her eldest son an annoyed look, but it’s different now that she had come back from taking care of her daughter for a month. She had heard about what others had said about her eldest son. He was doing well at work and didn’t humiliate her.

So Mother Su said, “You’ve been working hard. Everyone will be eating it tonight.”

Su Jinjun couldn’t believe it. His mother said he could eat, which meant that she respected him!

Mother Su warned, “But you have to work hard in the future. Otherwise, you won’t be able to eat anything. Do you hear me?”

“I hear you . How can I humiliate my mother? Go over and ask. No one needs to watch over me when I work,” Su Jinjun said

Mother Su stopped talking to him. She knew that if it wasn’t for Jianyun’s martial arts, how could this son grow up?

In the end, the Lao Su family had a big meal that night.
