The son-in-law of the husband’s family
The son-in-law of the husband’s family — 8.3

  Looking at today’s gift, you can tell that Li Zhouzhou is a fool who values ​​Gu Zhao.

  Li Guihua was calculating. Seeing the unhappy expression on Li Zhouzhou’s face, she quickly said with a smile, “I am a straightforward person. I don’t have any bad intentions. Zhao’er studies on weekdays, and I don’t dare to make him do any housework.”

  She held her waist and touched her belly again, sighing, “When I was pregnant with this, I was busy with your wedding and worked hard for more than half a month. Now my waist and legs ache after standing for a while. The house is messy and I don’t have time to wash clothes…”

  Li Zhouzhou is not stupid. When he was a child, he could not understand the hidden meaning in people’s words. After suffering a few losses, he came back and thought about it and understood that what his mother-in-law meant was that she wanted him to cook and work, and it would be best if she could wash the clothes.

  Actually, there was nothing wrong with doing some work. Li Zhouzhou often did it. Although it was the first time he and his husband returned home after getting married, they were supposed to be guests, but his mother-in-law was pregnant…

  Li Zhouzhou was about to agree, but it was getting late and he couldn’t let his husband starve.

  ”Thank you for your hard work, mother.” Gu Zhao said, and asked, “Isn’t my father back yet?”

  Seeing that Li Zhouzhou agreed, Li Guihua was happy and dodged for a moment, and said casually: “I’ll ask Hutou to go and call your uncle when he comes to visit.”

  As they were talking, there was a noise in the yard. Gu’s father, Hutou, Tiedan, came back. Tiedan carried a bucket of water and ran to the kitchen to pour some water. After pouring the water, he wanted to eat some maltose, but there were too many people around, so he didn’t dare to ask.

  ”Where have you been running around all morning? No one has come home. Call someone.” Li Guihua doesn’t like her eldest son because he is too dull.

  Tiedan didn’t even dare to ask for malt candy, so he just called out “brother”. But when he got to Li Zhouzhou, he didn’t know what to say.

  ”Call me brother.” Gu Zhao said.

  Nowadays, when men get married, they are actually addressed according to the relationship between a woman and a man, but Gu Zhao married into the family.

  Tiedan was about to shout, but Gu’s father’s face turned as black as the bottom of a pot and glared at him. Tiedan was scared and didn’t know what to shout. Hutou next to him called “sister-in-law”, and Gu’s father’s expression eased, and Tiedan followed suit.

  Li Guihua touched Hutou, thinking that her youngest son was smart. When Hutou’s father was not around, Li Zhouzhou bullied her. She accepted the title of mother-in-law, but now she is in front of Hutou’s father and behaves well.

  Father Gu had never looked at Li Zhouzhou straight in the eye since he entered the courtyard, and he was always arrogant. Even if Gu Zhao entered the Li family and became a son-in-law, Li Zhouzhou still had to be a daughter-in-law and respect him as a father-in-law.

  Li Zhouzhou didn’t care about these things. Hutou and Tiedan were still children, so he just called them dad.

  ”Yeah.” Father Gu reluctantly admitted it. When he entered the room, he saw that there was not even a cup of hot tea. His face immediately fell and he said to Li Guihua, “It’s already this late, and you haven’t made tea or cooked meals.”

  Li Guihua held her waist and groaned while looking at Li Zhouzhou.

  Li Zhouzhou was about to agree when he saw his husband roll up his sleeves and asked with a smile, “Mother, let me help you. I have never cooked before and I just learned how to cook recently, so I am not familiar with it yet. Zhouzhou, you sit down with dad and have a good rest and talk. I will bring you the hot tea when it is ready.”

  Everyone in the house: ???

  “No, what, what’s the matter——” Li Guihua stuttered.

  Gu Zhao said as if it was a matter of course, “Mother, I am married to Zhou Zhou and I am the one who stays at home. It is my job to wash clothes, cook and do housework. I didn’t learn it at home before, but today is the perfect time. Mother, please teach me how to light the fire and cook. If you don’t teach me, I will keep an eye on it. I’m afraid the kitchen will catch fire.”

  ”Nonsense!” Father Gu’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he slapped the kang heavily.

  Gu Zhao’s expression didn’t change at all, he still smiled and spoke to his father in a gentle voice.

  ”Dad, when Zhou Zhou came to marry me, I sent a matchmaker’s invitation and gave him a lot of betrothal gifts and money. I rode a donkey with Zhou Zhou back to the Li family. As the saying goes, a daughter who is married off is like spilled water. I am a son who has been married off. The water has been spilled on the Li family. From now on, I will belong to Zhou Zhou’s family, and I will be buried in Zhou Zhou’s ancestral tomb after I die.”

  Defeat magic with magic.

  Li Zhouzhou opened his mouth halfway, not knowing what to say.

  Gu’s father, who was putting on airs on the kang, was so angry that his face turned blue. He pointed at Gu Zhao and looked like he could stick out his tongue, but because of his good health, he didn’t do it.

  Gu Zhao tried his best to fill the gap.
