Chapter 356 The conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law
"Mom, my restaurant just opened..."
"Isn't it closed?"
Although Fu Ma's tone was gentle and gentle, her attitude was a bit strong.
In this era, mother-in-law is indeed very powerful.
Qiao Xiyan didn't know what to say, so she reached under the table and pulled her husband. But Fu Dongchen didn't know what he was thinking. Being pulled by her made a little noise, and Qiao Xiyan was quickly exposed.
Fu Ma glanced under the table, "Why are you reluctant to close such a small restaurant?"
"If you really want to open a restaurant, you can open it with us. If you don't have the money, your dad and we can also support you."
Fu Ma's seemingly enlightened words made Qiao Xiyan feel humiliated again.
Fortunately, Fu Dongchen had come to his senses and interrupted, "Mom, let's discuss this later."
Fu Ma couldn't help but frown again.
At this time, Meng Yao brought over the brewed chrysanthemum tea.
As soon as she brought it out of the kitchen, the tangy aroma filled the air.
Father Fu, who loves tea the most, couldn't help but look around when he smelled the fragrance, "What does it smell like? So fragrant? Osmanthus tea?"
Fu's mother was talking to Qiao Xiyan about the restaurant, and she gave him an angry look.
"A little osmanthus tea, what's all the fuss about? We also have an osmanthus tree at home. If I knew you liked to drink it, I would have people pick it when it blooms and make tea for you!"
Father Fu had a warm smile on his face. He pushed up his glasses and explained slowly: "I just smell it and it smells good. Smell it carefully. Does it smell good?"
What Dad Fu said is nonsense. How could the smell of osmanthus not be fragrant?
When Meng Yao brought the kettle and cups over, Fu stood up and went to take the plates.
"I'll do it, I'll do it!"
Meng Yao is a caterer and will not argue with customers. He handed over the plate and said with a smile: "The tea in the store is free, you can refill it after you drink it!"
Father Fu asked with a surprised look on his face: "Tea is free in Boss Meng's shop. Aren't you afraid that some people will come in and only drink tea and rest without eating?"
"Of course I'm not afraid. After all, you can only eat in the store if someone comes!"
Meng Yao curled his lips and said, without disturbing the family, "The food will be here soon!"
Fu's mother looked thoughtful, while Fu's father divided the cups. His son wanted to help, but he shook his head and refused.
"The teapot and water cup used for making tea are just right. They feel quite heavy. They must have cost a lot of money. Looking at the decoration of this store, I can invest so much money, and my family must have a certain amount of wealth.
.”
Fu Ma, who was standing by, had already noticed this.
The cup was small and exquisite, and the environment in the store was particularly nice. Fu Ma was actually interested in drinking tea.
Although she does not love tea as much as her husband, she still drinks tea frequently and has done some research on tea.
Women also prefer to drink scented tea.
Smelling the scent of osmanthus tea, it is indeed very fragrant.
After drinking it into her mouth, Fu Ma showed an expression of enjoyment.
"This tea is really good!"
“It’s good!”
Father Fu nodded repeatedly there and played with the tea cup lovingly, as if he had got something precious.
"I just said it smells good, and this drink tastes even better. Just for the osmanthus tea, it's worth coming here!"
"Dongchen, try it!"
Father Fu likes to drink tea, so after pouring it for himself and his wife just now, the teapot was placed directly on his right hand.
Overjoyed, he picked it up and poured another glass for his son. Just as he was about to pour a glass for his daughter-in-law, Qiao Xiyan raised her hand to cover the mouth of the glass.
"Dad, I don't drink tea!"
Father Fu was startled for a moment, but he took his hand back with a gentle expression.
If you don't want to drink it, just drink it. He didn't care and started sipping tea with his wife again.
Soon, the food arrived.
My wife likes to eat light food, my son likes spicy food, and he likes sweet food.
They have three flavors in the family.
So when the food was served, he saw that a plate of Mapo Tofu was served first, and pushed it to his son's side.
Their family members were more concerned about their wives. Fu's father pushed the plate of dishes over, and Fu Dongchen took two pairs of chopsticks and handed one pair to Qiao Xiyan.
"Xiyan, try it."
Qiao Xiyan also likes spicy food, which Fu Dongchen naturally knows.
It's just that Fu Dongchen has good intentions, but Qiao Xiyan thinks that he doesn't take her into consideration at all.
Just now I said hypocritically that if she didn't want to eat, I would go out and buy it, but now I'm forcing her to eat.
Qiao Xiyan stiffened her hands and pushed the chopsticks away, then whispered: "I don't want to eat."
Fu Dongchen finally noticed that his wife was losing her temper. He hesitated and put the pair of chopsticks on the table.
Qiao Xiyan glanced at the chopsticks placed in front of her, unable to suppress her anger, she pulled the chopsticks aside.
The pair of chopsticks clattered and fell to the ground.
Fu's mother finally couldn't help but turned cold, but in the end she still gave her daughter-in-law face and allowed her to step down.
"Xiyan doesn't want to eat, so let's go shopping in the town first and see what delicious food there is!"
As she spoke, she saw her son also wanted to stand up, and added with a cold face: "This is your hometown, and you shouldn't need anyone to accompany you. Dong Chen came here in a hurry, and he hasn't had a full meal yet, so let
It’s better for him to stay here.”
Father Fu smiled and tried to smooth things over, but before he could say anything, Mother Fu kicked him under the table.
Father Fu opened his mouth and swallowed the words again.
Fu Dongchen originally tilted his head to persuade Qiao Xiyan, but Qiao Xiyan suddenly stood up, looked at Fu's mother and said, "Okay, mom, you eat slowly, and I'll go out for a walk."
Qiao Xiyan has always maintained the respect she deserves for her parents-in-law in the Fu family. This is the first time that she has failed to give her parents-in-law face.
Fu Dongchen stood up and wanted to chase him, but Fu's mother glared at him.
"You, sit down for me!"
Fu's mother was really angry. She patted the table lightly and couldn't help but said angrily: "Look what kind of wife you married. Now you dare to show off to your father and us!"
Father Fu coughed slightly and just said for his daughter-in-law: "Children are bound to have a temper."
This provoked Fu Ma to glare at him again. Her cold white eyes made him pick up the tea cup and cover his eyes.
Okay, why don't you stop talking?
"Mom, Xiyan didn't mean it. She just had a temporary temper. Please don't..."
Before her son could finish speaking, Fu's mother snorted again.
"She has such a bad temper that even her own husband has to look at her face."
"mom……"
Fu Dongchen shouted helplessly, "Xiyan is not like that!"
"Okay, don't defend her!"
In the Fu family, Fu's mother is stronger than Fu's father. Her face turned cold, and both father and son were actually a little scared.
"I think she still hasn't realized her mistake. She might have to make trouble with you when she goes back. Dongchen, remember, it's OK to love your wife, but you can't hurt her without knowing the right and wrong. She should understand the truth. What's going on?
We have to let her understand."
Fu's mother lowered her voice and said, "Your grandfather's life was saved. This is a life-saving grace. What grudges or grudges can't be put aside temporarily? In the final analysis..."
"After all, she still doesn't regard herself as a member of our family!"
