Chapter 488: Evil Mother-in-law 34
Han Lao San's wife asked, "Second sister-in-law, what did you cook? This dish is almost burnt to charcoal, how dare you serve it to us?"
Ma Xiangling spread her hands, looking innocent. "I have never cooked before. It's already good enough that I can cook a meal that is presentable to others. This is my first time cooking. Even my mother has never eaten the food I cooked. You are lucky to have a good meal today."
"Haha, what a treat. You must be hungry, right? I'm almost starving. Never mind, I won't eat at home." Han Laosan threw the chopsticks on the table, got up and walked out the door.
Han's mother shouted, "Third brother, if you don't eat breakfast, how can you have the energy to work?"
"No, I'm afraid I'll eat myself to death."
The door opened and slammed shut.
Han Laosan's voice disappeared outside the door.
"Mom, I won't eat anymore. The children have weak stomachs and can't eat these. But it's too late to cook now. I'll take them out to eat a bite and let them come back later." Han Dasao put down her chopsticks and said to the children, "Xiao Qiang, Xiao Ying, let's go. I'll take you kids to the state-owned restaurant to eat bean sprouts and spicy buns."
"Oh, let's go eat spicy buns. I want to eat spicy buns."
"I'll go get my bag."
"Mom, I want to eat two spicy buns."
"Auntie, I want to eat two spicy buns too."
"Okay, okay, each of you can have two." Mrs. Han responded to the five children good-temperedly.
After Mrs. Han and the children went to school, Father Han lost his appetite. "You guys eat. I'm going to work first."
"Old man, have some vegetable soup before you go. This soup looks delicious." said Han's mother.
Ma Xiangling explained weakly, "Mom, that was stir-fried Chinese cabbage, but the cabbage was too watery, so I added some water, and then... I added too much." Han's mother glared at her angrily, "Shut up, do you have the right to speak? Look at the dishes you made, who dares to eat them."
"Second son's wife, are you taking revenge on me for waking you up so early in the morning to cook? I tell you, even if you make poison, you must get up at six o'clock every day to cook for us."
Ma Xiangling cried out of grievance, "Mom, we are all daughters-in-law, why don't my eldest sister-in-law and my third brother's wife have to cook, and I have to do it alone? I don't accept it."
"Even if you don't agree, you have to hold it in. You are idle without a job. You don't want to cook, but you want to go to heaven. Do you want me, your mother-in-law, to cook for you?"
Ma Xiangling pouted and retorted, "I don't have a job, so what? Cong Hui will support me, and I don't want anyone else to support me, so why should I serve them?"
"you you……"
Mother Han was so angry that she fell backwards, but was supported by the eldest brother Han. "Mom, forget it. Your daughter-in-law is not sensible. You should spend more time and effort to teach her slowly in the future."
"Oh my, the one I married is not my daughter-in-law, but my ancestor."
Wan Meihua covered her face and burst into tears.
Han Conghui raised his hand and slapped Ma Xiangling on the face.
Han Conghui said angrily, "Ma Xiangling, what's wrong with you? You really can't cook? Look how mad you have made my mother. If anything happens to my mother, I will divorce you and send you back to your parents' home."
Ma Xiangling was so scared that she covered her face and dared not even fart.
Seeing that her son had helped her vent her anger, Han's mother stopped crying and threatened Ma Xiangling viciously, "Second son's wife, I'm warning you, if you cook half-cooked rice or burn the vegetables again, I will let you eat it all by yourself."
Ma Xiangling was aggrieved, with tears in her eyes, "I know, Mom, I...I will work hard to learn how to cook."
