98 The Sun Family’s Plot

All the money in the family was spent on their sister-in-law. Her food, clothes, and everything she used were on par with Li Xue from the village chief’s family. Otherwise, why would the entire village be so envious of her?

Studying was the most expensive thing. The cost of books, tuition and miscellaneous fees, accommodation, meals in the cafeteria, books, and pens were all expenses. All of the money was paid by them. The money earned by their husbands was all used by their mother-in-law on their sister-in-law.

Some time ago, they had made a fuss about not letting her go to school, but in the end, they still relented. Since the three of them couldn’t win against their mother-in-law, they could only endure it. However, recently, the three of them discovered that the whole family would sneak into their mother-in-law’s room at night.

Only the three of them were not allowed to go.

Today, the maid had let it slip. Only then did the three of them know that their mother-in-law would secretly cook lotus-wrapped eggs at night. The family had gone to eat without them. Because their mother-in-law didn’t allow her to say it, the maid didn’t dare to say anything.

This made the three of them extremely angry. This mother-in-law was too much of a bully. It was fine if she didn’t give them food, or if they didn’t have food. However, only the Sun family could eat, while the daughters-in-law couldn’t. Wasn’t that treating them as outsiders?

“Mom…” the third son wanted to say something, but Zhu Yueju glared at him.

“What?”

The third son could only lower his head and continue to eat. The rice cooked with cornmeal was rough and strained his throat. His heart ached at the thought of his wife working every day without any good food.

Every night, his mother would cook something good for him. He wanted to secretly keep it for his wife to eat, but his mother wouldn’t allow it. She only let him leave her room after forcing him to finish eating.

Third brother had always felt that he had let his wife down.

“I’m full. Mom, I’ll give you the rest of the food in my bowl.” Sun Yunyun saw through her three sisters-in-law’s thoughts, but her heart was filled with disdain.

She looked down on her sisters-in-law for being so short-sighted and only caring about petty things like food and drinks.

Will you die if you eat a little more or a little less?

In order to live in the world, one had to have a goal and set their sights on the long term. Sun Yunyun knew her goal and future. She was going to go to a big city and marry the future big shot, Zhou Hengyang.

Therefore, she didn’t want to argue with her sisters-in-law. She was going to the big city soon anyway. Next year, she would be able to enter University. She would go to the provincial capital to look for Zhou Hengyang.

“Daughter, why are you only eating this much?” When Zhu Yueju heard that Sun Yunyun wasn’t going to eat anymore, she became anxious and glared at her three daughters-in-law. “It’s all because of you guys. What’s the big deal? You’re disturbing us from eating properly!”

The three daughters-in-law lowered their heads and begrudgingly apologised.

“Mom, I’m full. Don’t scold my sisters-in-law.” Sun Yunyun smiled graciously and coquettishly persuaded Zhu Yueju not to blame her sisters-in-law.

“Hmph! I’ll let you guys off for Yunyun’s sake. Hurry up and thank your sister-in-law,” Zhu Yueju said unhappily.

Little did she know that after the three of them heard Sun Yunyun’s plea, they felt even more hatred in their hearts.

How is my sister-in-law pleading for mercy?! She was clearly treating the three of them as servants!

Who was she acting all high and mighty for?

Zhu Yueju patiently coaxed Sun Yunyun to eat more. “Yunyun, you still have half a bowl of rice! Hurry up and eat, finish it all.”

“Mom, I really don’t want to eat.” If it tasted so bad, she might as well go back to her room and eat some peach crisps.

“But the bowl…”

Zhu Yueju was about to say that she had secretly hidden the eggs under the bowl, but before she could finish her words, Su Xiu rushed in with a hoe. She was aggressive, wrapped in a frightening aura, and went straight to Sun Yunyun.

The Sun family was stunned.

Sun Yunyun was the first to react. She dodged to the side and pulled Zhu Yueju in a hurry. It just so happened that Zhu Yueju, who was coaxing her to eat, was exposed. Su Xiu’s hoe fell from the sky.
