Chapter 34: No One Can Insult My Wife!

Yu Miaomiao was about to speak when Mu Jingrong quickly interjected, “Mother, I’m starving! I’m going to faint if I don’t eat!”

Yu Miaomiao was stunned, then smiled with relief.

“Alright, Rong’er walked twenty miles back from school, he must be hungry. Eat then!” Old Man Mu was relatively fond of his youngest son.

Seeing the oil residue pancakes on the table, he sat down and ate silently, ignoring everyone else.

Old Lady Mu glared fiercely at Su Tang.

Yu Miaomiao said, “Mother, you should pray that our soap-making is successful, so we can have oil residue pancakes every day.”

Oil residue pancakes every day? What kind of wealthy family’s food standard is this!

Old Lady Mu naturally wanted to eat oil residue pancakes every day. But thinking that these pancakes were made with money that was “squandering” her son’s money, she felt so upset that she wanted to beat someone up.

“Mother, aren’t you eating?” Mu Jingrong asked. “Then I’ll continue eating…”

“You’re already full, and you still want to eat? Afraid of bursting? Scram!” Old Lady Mu angrily kicked her son. “A whole family is still hungry!”

Mu Jingrong chuckled, “Then I’ll go do my homework, so I can work tomorrow.”

Old Lady Mu ate the oil residue pancake while lecturing, “Even such a young child knows to earn work points, while some adults only know how to be lazy.”

“Mom, I’m going to be lazy now, you can wash the dishes later!” Su Tang said as she was about to leave.

Old Lady Mu exploded, “You dare take one step, try it?”

“Mom, you said I’m lazy, I have to accept this accusation, right? Otherwise, I’ll be scolded for nothing.”

“……”

Old Lady Mu couldn’t argue with Su Tang, so she just glared.

Finally, Mu Jingyuan changed the subject, “Mother, Mingzhu came back today.”

“Mingzhu? Where is she now?” Old Lady Mu was overjoyed and asked hurriedly.

“She left again.”

Old Lady Mu was utterly disappointed, “I haven’t seen her for half a year, she didn’t even stay for a few days…”

“Mother, I heard Mingzhu left crying,” Mu Jingyuan said.

Su Tang narrowed her beautiful eyes.

Sister-in-law is really good at complaining, Big Brother just went to her room to deliver food, and she already reported it?

In the original story, Old Lady Mu loved Shen Mingzhu very much.

After knowing that Mu Jingyun liked Shen Mingzhu, she directly regarded Shen Mingzhu as her future daughter-in-law. The best food in the family was always given to Shen Mingzhu first.

She even prepared a special room for Shen Mingzhu.

Shen Mingzhu stayed at the Mu family for two years.

Old Lady Mu didn’t feel any discomfort at all. For two years, she treated Shen Mingzhu well, even better than her own daughter.

Now knowing that Shen Mingzhu was wronged, she would definitely cause a scene.

“Who received Mingzhu?” Old Lady Mu put down her bowl and shouted angrily.

Mu Jingyun looked up, “Me.”

“Second son? You, how did you make Mingzhu cry?” Old Lady Mu asked incredulously.

She’s the apple of your eye!

“She insulted my wife, and also my third sister-in-law,” Mu Jingyun calmly picked up another oil residue pancake, his expression calm and unruffled.

Old Lady Mu was stunned, like she was dreaming, “Second son, she’s Mingzhu!”

“I know.”

“Then you still…”

“No one can insult my wife.”

Mu Jingyun took a bite of the oil residue pancake, it was delicious!

His wife was so capable, making him delicious food every day.

Old Lady Mu looked at her second son with complex emotions, and finally chose to eat in silence.

Second son’s thoughts are seriously abnormal! Or, don’t stimulate him anymore.

After dinner, Old Lady Mu quietly told Mu Jingyuan, “Tell your wife not to mention Mingzhu, I think the second son is not right.”

“Got it.” Mu Jingyuan was also afraid that his second brother would go crazy.

The third brother just doesn’t smile, always keeps a straight face to scare people. But the second brother, he really will use a knife to chop people!

Recalling his appearance when he escaped from the human traffickers, half his body covered in blood… Mu Jingyuan shuddered.

Back in the room, he told Li Lan, “Don’t mention Mingzhu in front of the second brother from now on.”

“What’s wrong?” Li Lan was unconvinced.

She was always bullied by Su Tang and Yu Miaomiao, and rarely had a chance to vent her anger, how could she let it go?

“The second brother… sigh, you won’t understand even if I tell you. Anyway, the second brother is already married, and there’s no possibility with Mingzhu anymore. If we annoy him, we won’t have a good life either.”

Li Lan was confused, “The second brother has a good temper…”

“Good my ass! He’s just pretending. A smiling tiger is even more terrifying!” Mu Jingyuan said.

“Uh…”

Li Lan still didn’t understand, but Mu Jingyuan refused to say more, so she had no choice.

“I hid an extra oil residue pancake for you, eat it!” Mu Jingyuan was quite good at taking care of his wife.

Li Lan felt that she could also compare with Su Tang, and happily ate the pancake.

After cleaning up the kitchen, the sun hadn’t completely set.

Mu Jingrong moved a stool and sat in the yard to do his homework.

“Fifth brother, turn on the lamp before you write, it’s bad for your eyes,” Su Tang said.

Mu Jingrong grinned, “I can see, no need to waste lamp oil.”

“There’s still lamp oil for doing homework,” Su Tang went back to the room, lit her lamp, and placed it next to Mu Jingrong.

With the help of the kerosene lamp, the words on the book became clear.

Su Tang glanced at it and said, “You got it wrong, the answer is incorrect.”

“Third sister-in-law, this question is too difficult,” Mu Jingrong sighed.

“Didn’t you understand it in class?”

“Yeah.”

Su Tang smiled, “I’ll explain it to you.”

“Third sister-in-law, you can?”

“Such a simple question, it’s a piece of cake!”

The junior high school questions of this era were not difficult, Su Tang, a cultural studies underachiever, was more than capable of handling them.

She patiently explained it to Mu Jingrong. Old Lady Mu sat on the other side of the yard enjoying the cool breeze, disdainfully humming, “Pretending to be cultured!”

She added, “If Mingzhu were here, it would be great. She’s a university student, she must understand. Before the fourth child’s middle school entrance examination, she painstakingly tutored him, so he could get into high school…”

“Wow, Third sister-in-law, you’re amazing! After you explained it, I understand now!” Mu Jingrong exclaimed in surprise.

Old Lady Mu’s muttering stopped abruptly.

“Third sister-in-law, you’re even better than our teacher. I admire you so much.”

“You can ask me if you don’t understand anything in the future. You can also ask your second sister-in-law, she also knows.”

“Wow, second sister-in-law also knows? Then our family are all cultured people! No, I have to study hard too, and strive to become a cultured person!”

On this ordinary evening, Mu Jingrong rekindled his interest in studying.

Every weekend when he returned home, he would bring questions to ask, gradually transforming from a poor student into a top student, and then helping other students.

Many years later, when he held his university diploma and went to work, he still felt grateful for the help of his second and third sisters-in-law.

Li Lan, who hadn’t finished primary school, was resentful in the room.

Bullying her for being uneducated! Bah!

Knowing a few characters is amazing? A university student like Mingzhu is a truly cultured person!

Junior high school math problems are simple, how about trying English? They definitely can’t teach that!

“Third sister-in-law is so amazing, does she speak English?” Li Lan opened the window and asked with a smile.

Su Tang rolled her eyes, “Of course I do.”

“That’s great! When your nephew is born, you’ll teach him English. Let our Mu family produce a diplomat, to bring glory to our ancestors,” Li Lan said.

Su Tang smiled, “That might disappoint Big Sister-in-law.”

Shen Mingzhu has already appeared earlier, she and Miaomiao should not wait for two years.

Maybe, after a month or so, they can get a divorce and leave.

“What? Third sister-in-law doesn’t like the Mu family’s grandson, and doesn’t want to teach him?” Li Lan asked sarcastically, “Or, you can’t?”
