Chapter 574: 151: You really are a good child_1
Zhou Wenhua did not respond to Li Ronghuaâs words; instead, he ripped open the box that contained the pen.
Itâs a PARKER pen!
Itâs really a PARKER pen!
Zhou Wenhua was thrilled. He hugged Li Ronghua tightly, saying, âRonghua, thank you! I love you!â
Zhou Wenhua was only this enthusiastic towards Li Ronghua when he received a gift that he had been longing for.
Li Ronghua, a bit embarrassed, pushed Zhou Wenhua away. âWenhua, what are you doing! Stop being cheeky! You should check out the pen first, Iâm going to go see if Auntie needs any help.â
The couple had been seeing each other for a few years now, yet they hadnât engaged in any overly intimate behaviours.
This made Li Ronghua feel a little uncomfortable.
Upon entering the living room, Li Ronghua saw Wang Meiying sitting on the sofa, picking her teeth. Upon seeing Li Ronghua approach, she immediately yelled at Zhou Xiuzhen, âYou lazy bum! Why havenât you done the dishes yet! All you do is eat and laze around!â
Li Ronghua, seemingly oblivious to the hidden meaning in Wang Meiyingâs words, quickly replied, âAuntie, Xiuzhen is still young, let me do the dishes.â
Wang Meiying forced a fake smile, âOh Ronghua, that would be such a nuisance for you, what a good child you are!â
âItâs no hassle.â Whatâs so hard about washing dishes?
Li Ronghua immediately headed to the kitchen to start washing the dishes.
The stove was piled with dishes, some from the morning.
Humming a small tune, Li Ronghua efficiently washed the dishes.
For her, this was nothing.
Because here, there were people she loved, and people who loved her.
Besides, how many daughters-in-law wouldnât have to wash dishes at their in-lawsâ home?
âSister-in-lawâŠâ Zhou Xiuzhen cheerfully walked in from outside, speaking warmly, âSister-in-law, youâre washing dishes? Can I help you?â
Li Ronghua, a bit embarrassed, said, âDonât go calling me that!â
Zhou Xiuzhen replied, âAnyway, youâre going to be my sister-in-law sooner or later. Plus, I only call you that when others arenât around. Sister-in-law, let me help you. Itâs too much for you to do alone.â
Li Ronghua laughed, âItâs okay, you can go out and play.â
Zhou Xiuzhen looked at Li Ronghua, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
Humming her tune, Li Ronghua didnât notice Zhou Xiuzhenâs strange behavior.
Zhou Xiuzhen pouted.
Whatâs going on with Li Ronghua today?
Could it be that she didnât notice her unusual behavior?
Since Li Ronghua remained silent, Zhou Xiuzhen had no choice but to speak up, âSister-in-law, I need your help with somethingâŠâ
âWhat is it?â Li Ronghua glanced at her.
Zhou Xiuzhen continued, âSister-in-law, could you lend me some moneyâŠâ
To Zhou Xiuzhen, Li Ronghua was like a walking ATM.
Just like a fool, she could be easily tricked every time.
âOf course!â Li Ronghua wiped her hands on her apron and without hesitation, pulled out some coins from her pocket and gave them to Zhou Xiuzhen, âHere you go.â
The coins were all pennies and dimes, the largest of which was only three cents.
Added together, they didnât even amount to thirty cents!
Zhou Xiuzhen complained somewhat contemptuously, âIsnât this too little? Sister-in-law, could you give me some more?â
Li Ronghua said, âWhat does a kid like you need so much money for?â
âSister-in-law, please, youâre my own sister-in-law. Iâm not asking for much, just two yuan will doâŠâ
Zhou Xiuzhen was Zhou Wenhuaâs only sister and her future sister-in-law. Naturally, she couldnât offend her future sister-in-law!
Li Ronghua nodded, âAlright, alright! Iâll give it to you!â
âYouâre the best, sister-in-law!â Zhou Xiuzhen was very happy.
After taking the money, Zhou Xiuzhen ran out of the kitchen.
Once Li Ronghua had finished the dishes and left the kitchen, Wang Meiying instructed Zhou Xiuzhen to do the laundry.
In the end, the person doing the laundry turned out to be Li Ronghua.
The laundry had been piling up for days.
By the time Li Ronghua had finished washing the laundry, it was already past five in the afternoon. âUncle, Auntie, itâs getting late, I should go home.â
