Leaving her weird mother-in-law and husband, she became a wealthy woman on her own

One day in mid-September, it was a Sunday, and Sijun and Manxian were not at work. After they got up from lunch break, Manxian was revising her paper, while Sijun was tidying up the house while waiting for his mother's call.

That afternoon, the mother packed her luggage and took a friend's car to the place where Sijun and Manxian rented.

She officially came to take care of the pregnant Man Xian.

At around six o'clock in the evening, Sijun's cell phone finally rang. His mother told him that they would arrive in ten minutes, and asked him to come downstairs and wait, and to help carry the luggage upstairs.

Manxian heard Sijun talking to his mother in the room, so she walked out of the room and said to Sijun, "I'll go down and help too!"

Sijun and Manxian went downstairs together and waited at the gate of the community.

Soon, the car carrying his mother came speeding over. As soon as Sijun's mother got out of the car, she quickly took out all the things she had brought from the trunk of the car and put them on the ground.

Seeing this, Sijun stepped forward and picked up the heavier luggage first.

Sijun's mother said, "Don't carry so many heavy bags. It's okay to carry less at a time and make two more trips. Just carry these two bags up first."

Sijun followed his mother's instructions, picked up two heavier bags, and rushed upstairs to where he lived without saying a word.

Manxian walked over with her bulging belly and greeted Sijun's mother.

Then she took as much luggage as she could and walked back step by step.

With the efforts of three people, they quickly brought all the luggage, big and small, to their residence.

Sijun and Manxian looked at the dozens of bags of varying sizes on the ground and looked at each other in bewilderment.

Manxian secretly said to Sijun: "I didn't expect your mother to bring so many things here! I'm very curious, why did she think of bringing so many things... This is no different from moving house..."

Sijun shook his head and said, "She is always like this. She always carries a lot of things with her every time she goes out. And this time she came to take care of you and stayed for several months, which is like moving."

As they were talking, Sijun's mother took out a lot of packed lunch boxes from a big bag, put them on the table, and said, "These are the dishes I prepared. You can eat them directly."

Manxian was very surprised and thought to herself: Oh my God! The dishes were prepared first and then brought here... This... is a bit strange!

Sijun quickly said "Oh" and went to get the dishes and chopsticks.

Sijun had already prepared dinner in the pot, so he just served the rice out and paired it with the dishes his mother had prepared on the table to make a complete dinner.

While the three of them were having dinner, Sijun's mother kept telling them the basic situation of Sijun's grandfather.

Man Xian interjected, "Well, it would be really hard for Sijun's father to take care of grandpa alone."

Unexpectedly, just one sentence made Sijun's mother's face become even more serious.

Sijun sensed the unpleasant atmosphere and quickly tried to smooth things over: "Yes! It's very hard, and it's very hard for everyone."

Sijun's mother said, "Your dad! Your dad! He has to take care of grandpa and himself every day. It must be very hard."

Man Xian was completely confused, not understanding what she had said wrong.

After dinner, Sijun hurried to the school where he worked. He had to work overtime tonight to prepare materials.

Manxian was awkwardly interacting with Sijun's mother for the first time, and she felt completely unnatural.

She felt that Sijun's mother had been looking at her with an examining eye, and her gaffe just now, which she didn't even understand why she was wrong, made her feel even more uncomfortable.

She somewhat hoped that time would pass quickly and Sijun would come back soon.

She really wanted to hide back in her room, but then she thought, someone just came over and came to take care of me. It would be very unhospitable for me to hide in the room like this.

So Man Xian had to sit awkwardly in the living room.

The house they rented was not big, with only two rooms, so the living room was naturally very small. As long as they stayed in the living room, they were almost face to face with nowhere to hide.

After finishing her meal, Sijun's mother was busy packing up the things she brought.

According to the discussion between Manxian and Sijun, the master bedroom was given to Sijun's mother, and they slept in the second bedroom.

After Sijun's mother finished her work, she finally had time to sit down. She sat on the sofa in the living room, very close to the dining table.

This was the moment when Manxian was a little scared, because Sijun's mother sat down. Although she was on the sofa and she was at the dining table, it was not much different from being face to face. So, they had to talk about something, they couldn't just sit there.

However, Man Xian really didn't know what to talk to the other party about.

It was Sijun's mother who spoke first: "How is it? Are you getting along well with my son?"

Man Xian nodded: "Well, it's okay, he is quite considerate."

"Yes, we have educated my son very well since he was young. You can ask around. Our friends and neighbors all say that our family is very, very good. I have a friend who really wants her daughter to marry into our family and become our in-laws. Unfortunately, her daughter works in her hometown, and we don't accept people from other places."

"Oh, oh." Man Xian responded perfunctorily, not knowing how to answer.

"Alas... back then there were so many matchmakers who introduced many girls with good conditions. You can't even imagine how good their conditions were! When I think about the conditions of those girls now, they all seem good. They were really all good!"

"Then why not let Sijun marry them?" Man Xian couldn't stand it.

"But our Sijun didn't like any of them. I don't know what's going on in his mind. There are so many good girls, but he just doesn't want them. What a pity to waste such good conditions."

Manxian felt inexplicably angry. She said, "I think Sijun is different from some people in society because he knows himself. That's why he won't easily choose a girl with such good conditions."

Sijun's mother shook her head: "Alas... He just doesn't want to listen to me. If he marries a girl with better conditions, he can work less. He just doesn't understand these principles."

"Since you didn't marry her back then, why do you miss her now? Besides, I've never heard Sijun say how good the girls he dated in the past were. Instead, I often heard him say how bad those girls were." Man Xian began to refute directly.

"Sijun doesn't have enough self-confidence, so he doesn't dare to like those girls. You know? Many, many girls like our Sijun, but he is worried that they are too good and he can't handle them."

"That means he is indeed not suitable for those girls." Man Xian felt waves of disgust.

"But no matter what, our family has a very good reputation among our neighbors, relatives and friends. Everyone says that marrying into a family like this is a blessing. There are no conflicts or problems in our family, and everyone is easy to talk to. And we are city dwellers."

"I don't think city people are necessarily better than rural people, nor do I believe there are families without any problems in this world. I think no matter how good a family or relationship is, it still requires sacrifice and maintenance." Man Xian said bluntly. She really didn't like this way of chatting and the content, and she really wanted to end the conversation quickly and go back to her room.
