Chapter 589: The Injustice Jiang Sui Suffered!
Looking at Su Mengyu and Wu Ye, who were singing indignantly and acting in unison, Zhan Yanxun wondered when the two of them had become so close.
They shouldn't have any connection with Yan Lan, so why are they so happy that Yan Lan got her comeuppance?
Su Mengyu noticed Zhan Yanxun's confusion and said impatiently, "Zhan Yanxun, we found something. Take a look for yourself."
After Su Mengyu finished speaking, she handed her phone to Zhan Yanxun; it contained a surveillance video.
In the video, Jiang Qianhui prepared a large table of food and said respectfully, "Mom, sister-in-law, the food is ready. Please try it and see if it suits your taste."
Xie Qingyi said impatiently, "Why are you taking so long to cook? Are you trying to starve me to death?"
Jiang Qianhui said guiltily, "Mom, I'm sorry. I accidentally cut my hand while cutting the meat, and it took some time to treat the wound."
Upon hearing this, Xie Qingyi frowned and said, "What? She cut her hand while cutting the meat? There's your blood on the meat. She threw down her chopsticks. Who would dare eat this? Disgusting!"
Xie Qingyi suddenly dropped her chopsticks, the sound startling Jiang Qianhui.
She hurriedly explained, "Mom, when I cut my hand, the blood did splatter on the meat, but I've already thrown that piece away. This piece is fresh. Don't worry, it's absolutely clean."
Jiang Qianhui explained hastily, like a frightened little rabbit.
Zhan Yanxun frowned. The Jiang Qianhui in the video was a completely different person from the carefree, cold, and ruthless Jiang Qianhui he knew now.
Yan Lan: "Mom, Qian Sui is the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. It's her way of showing her filial piety by personally preparing this meal for you. Please don't blame her for cooking slowly, especially since her hand is injured."
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
"Oh, your hand is injured. But it's okay. If Yanxun saw you injured, he would be very distressed. Yanxun is the most filial son. He would be very happy to know that his wife is so devoted to his mother and cooks for her herself. This little injury on your hand is not an injury, it's a badge of honor for you. You have to work harder in the future."
Jiang Qianhui shook off her earlier dejection and said gratefully, "Sister-in-law, I understand. Thank you, sister-in-law."
Looking at the pitiful Jiang Qianhui on the phone screen, who seemed to be walking on thin ice, Zhan Yanxun felt a strange pain in his heart, yet it also felt very familiar. This seemed to be the Jiang Qianhui he remembered.
He hadn't paid attention to her hand injury before, but now that he thought about it, he realized it was all because of him; she had done it to please him.
"You thanked Yan Lan because you think I'm a bad mother-in-law?"
Xie Qingyi's words made Jiang Qianhui tense instantly.
"Mom, no. That's not what I meant. It was my sister-in-law who taught me how to do things, that's why I thanked her."
Jiang Qianhui hurriedly explained, but Xie Qingyi's expression remained unpleasant.
Yan Lan said with a half-smile, "Qian Sui, I'm not teaching you how to do things, but everyone knows how Yan Xun treats you."
Jiang Qianhui lowered her head, and Yan Lan continued, "You know he doesn't love you. He only married you for a business arrangement, and he's very cold towards you."
Actually, it's not that he can't accept you; he just takes his work too seriously. You need to gradually win him over by doing more things for him, so that he'll change his opinion of you and see you as a kind and filial person.
Jiang Qianhui nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, I understand."
"Mom, my feet have been hurting a bit lately. I'm taking the kids out for an activity this afternoon. Could you massage my feet for me?"
"Sister-in-law, if you have something to do, you can go ahead and do it. I'll just massage Mom."
Xie Qingyi's expression softened upon hearing this, but Su Mengyu suddenly said, "Mom, try these dishes and see if they're good."
After eating, Xie Qingyi said with disdain, "I thought you were an obedient and easy-to-manage daughter-in-law, but I didn't expect that you were just pretending to be well-behaved."
"Mom, what do you mean? I didn't, Mom."
"Look at what you've cooked! It's either too salty or too bland, and this is burnt. How do you do things at home? Didn't your mother teach you?"
"Mom, I'm sorry, I'll definitely do better next time."
"I was starving to death, and then I saw this whole table of food. I really don't know how you did it. You're as stupid as a pig."
"Mom, don't scold her. She's the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. It's already quite an achievement for her to cook for you personally."
"What kind of bullshit is this 'eldest daughter of the Jiang family'? So what? You married into our Zhan family, so you're our Zhan family's daughter-in-law. Let me tell you, don't think you're here to enjoy a life of luxury. I used to serve my mother-in-law and cook for her myself. There's nothing special about that. Jiang Qianci, you cook, but you cook so badly. I think you're just resentful. This is your silent protest. You really are something else."
"Mom, I really didn't mean it that way. I cooked for you voluntarily. You are Zhan Yanxun's mother, and serving you is what I should do. I know I have many shortcomings, and I will definitely work harder in the future. Please don't be angry."
Yan Lan said sarcastically, "Qian Sui, don't take it to heart. Mom is disciplining you. She used to treat me the same way. Besides, you are the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, pampered since childhood, so it's inevitable that you have some arrogance. You have to temper your temper. Otherwise, how can Yan Xun accept you? If any of these dishes don't suit your taste, you should take them away immediately and make new ones, understand?"
Jiang Qianhui looked at the injury on her hand, then said firmly, "Okay, I'll redo it now. Mom, sister-in-law, wait for me, I'll redo it."
Jiang Qianhui returned to the kitchen. Yan Lan said to Xie Qingyi, "Mom, you're so domineering! You have her completely under your thumb. You're absolutely right to do this. Jiang Qianhui is the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, and she's incredibly arrogant. I heard she's extravagant and wasteful, spending tens of millions just by going shopping. Moreover, she has no respect for elders and is impolite to them. If she doesn't work on her temper, she'll treat you like the Cai family's daughter-in-law treats her mother-in-law. Old Madam Cai is furious!"
“That daughter-in-law of the Cai family thinks she’s a rich young lady and looks down on everyone. I’m not as useless as Old Mrs. Cai.”
"Of course, Mom. You can't suffer like Old Mrs. Cai, so you have to temper her temper now. This afternoon, have her wash your feet. She has to wash them clean and make sure you're comfortable. Let her know who she is. This isn't the Jiang family, it's the Zhan family."
Zhan Yanxun watched the video, his fists clenching.
"Wu Ye, throw that woman into the sea to feed the fish. I want her to be completely obliterated!"
