NovelEnglishChapter 506
Back then, the Youngest Aunt retorted, “It’s all caused by that shrew. After the family was separated, she took Third Brother’s salary to eat and drink great food, leaving our entire family to suffer! She can’t bear to see us living well, so she decided to drive away my partner as well. You’re all hoping that I will not marry into the city so I can stay at home with you to farm and suffer together! How am I a hindrance to you that you want nothing more than to kick me out? You’re always complaining that I’m eating and drinking a lot here, so now that I’m trying to find a partner for myself, you guys decided to be jealous of the life I might have and try to sabotage my plans? What the heck do you want from me?”
Eldest Sister-in-law Han said, “Don’t try to put gold on your face all day long(2). No one is jealous of you and we all hope that you can marry out and live a good life in the city. Officer Sun just came over to the house to check things out, so there is a possibility that he decided he didn’t like it that much. After all, you two are not engaged.”

Just like that, Han Jinyu couldn’t take it anymore. She was the only one who deserved to pick her partner, so how could it be that her partner was the choosy one now?
Even though she had yet to take a fancy to Officer Sun yet, she intended to keep him around a little longer just to try. But now that Officer Sun just ran off without any explanation, she couldn’t handle the rejection.
It was nothing but a slap in the face!
Because of the anger that she held back had broken, she finally got into a fight with Eldest Sister-in-law Han.
In fact, the Eldest Sister-in-law was practically driven to the brink of insanity from the Eldest Aunt and Youngest Aunt’s shenanigans.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHan Jinyu brought Officer Sun to the house a while ago, but his nose was basically directed into the air. Upon seeing her, he didn’t address her as Eldest Sister-in-law and hummed as a sign of acknowledgement. How was that an appropriate attitude of courting? Was there ever such a snobbish way to greet a possible partner’s family members? With one look at him, the Eldest Sister-in-law knew that this man was here for Old Three.
Eldest Aunt Han was no better either. She brought her son and carried his bedding on her back, clearly insinuating that he wanted to live here. In front of the old lady, in order to flatter her own mother, she cursed at the shrew and ranted on how to plot against Lin Lan. She also complained that she would take her son over to live at her house whilst pretending to be some sort of role model as the eldest daughter to show Lin Lan the ropes on how to be a proper daughter-in-law.
It was embarrassing and awkward for Eldest Sister-in-law Han to hear all this, but the house was small and there wasn’t a place she could hide either.
And that’s not all.
.
Eldest Aunt Han really regarded herself as the head of her birth family as she lectured her sister-in-laws upon returning home. She also yapped on about how the main room was for the head of the house, how they should be filial to the elders and be the pillars of the family. There was also something about how the in-laws should greet the elders every morning, serve the meals for them, empty the urinal tanks, ensure that they take their medicine and soups etc.
