31 -31 No House Female Supporting Character 31_1
Zhang Yu saw Zhang Hong and Du Xia come out of the kitchen one after the other, while Chiang Yun was still busy in the kitchen, and smiled.
She knew that it should be Zhang Family’s eldest daughter-in-law who was still bustling about in the kitchen.
Indeed, isn’t that what people who ask for favors are supposed to do, to make an extra effort to show goodwill?
Du Xia greeted Zhang Yu warmly, asking how she was doing in another place, and the latter briefly described her life there.
“Don’t you feel lonely living alone?” Du Xia asked with concern.
Lonely?
Zhang Yu laughed.
“How could I feel lonely?”
“Busy with work, cooking and tidying up after getting home, then exercising my body, I can honestly say I’ve been really busy.”
“You’ve been exercising?” Only then did Du Xia notice Zhang Yu’s complexion had greatly improved.
“Little Yu, how have you been taking care of yourself lately?
I think you look much prettier than before.”
At this remark, Zhang Hong suddenly looked up and couldn’t help feeling jealous.
Being well into their thirties, how come her skin condition could be so good?
Zhang Hong considered herself quite proficient in self-maintenance; when she went out with Zhang Yu in the past, people would think she was the younger sister.
But now, if the two sisters went out, definitely nobody would mistake her for the younger one anymore.
It hadn’t been long, yet Zhang Yu had changed so much.
If this girl stayed there for a few more years, who knew how much more she would transform.
With a tinge of envy, Zhang Hong turned to Zhang Yu, “Little Yu, how do you maintain your looks?”
No woman doesn’t wish to remain young and beautiful; naturally, Du Xia was no exception.
She looked up at Zhang Yu, eager to know her secret.
This amused her; before, they all despised her for not grooming herself properly—those disdainful looks were obvious even to fools.
Now that she had learned to take care of herself, they were the ones feeling jealous.
Ah, such is the nature of women, never wanting others to outshine them.
“I just go for a run every morning and take a walk after dinner every evening,” she explained.
“Oh, right, and eat more fruit,” Zhang Yu added.
“That’s about it,” Zhang Yu thought for a moment, “Oh, and applying face masks.”
“But you should be doing these things too,” considering whether it was Chiang Yun or Du Xia, the three of them often got together to discuss which skincare products were better.
After all, it wasn’t as if they didn’t have the money.
Ah, is it really that simple?
Both Du Xia and Zhang Hong looked incredulous.
“Oh, right, and probably just getting plenty of sleep, as the saying goes.”
“A good complexion comes from ample sleep.
I rest before ten and wake up after five.”
Zhang Yu felt this routine was the best.
Bed by ten?
Up after five?
Du Xia and Zhang Hong thought they rested around the same time, so why didn’t they have such good results?
As for this, Zhang Yu thought for a moment, hesitating, “I fall asleep quickly and sleep soundly through the night until dawn.
What about you two?”
Well, Zhang Hong and Du Xia admitted they didn’t enjoy such sound sleep.
“Little sister has it easy, no worries at all,” Zhang Hong said, half joking and half envious.
“I can’t help it, I’m all alone with no one to rely on, so I have to be mindful of my health,” Zhang Yu said.
“I must eat well and rest well, for health is the capital of revolution.” Zhang Yu expressed the importance of health and the need to nourish her body.
To Du Xia and the others, what they heard was, I’m sorry, from now on, don’t treat Zhang Yu as free labor, she was going to be a selfish person.
Chiang Yun, carrying the boiled water, walked into the main hall and looked at the chattering crowd with a sense of injustice in her heart, everyone was drinking tea and chatting while she was the only one working.
At this moment, she completely forgot that there was a time when she was the one drinking tea and chatting while Zhang Yu worked alone.
Chiang Yun felt unhappy but could not voice it out loud, she glanced at Zhang Guohua, who was surrounded by people and chatting with Zhang Dagu, and the more she looked, the more irritated she became.
“Zhang Guohua, come help me wash the dishes,” Chiang Yun called out angrily.
Chiang Yun thought that since she had spoken up, there was no way Du Xia and the others could remain seated.
But no matter whether it was Du Xia or Zhang Hong, they were thick-skinned, and upon hearing Chiang Yun’s call, they acted as if they hadn’t heard anything.
Zhang Yu of course acted even more as if she hadn’t heard anything, which was absolutely hilarious.
She had given up a one-bedroom apartment, and with that money, who knows how many hours of maid service she could have hired.
Zhang Yu picked up some fruit and began to eat leisurely, “This taste really is good,” she mused.
“I used to be the only one busy in the kitchen, and after so many years, this is the first time I’ve experienced this.”
Zhang Yu said that she really didn’t go there because of what Chiang Yun had said, it was truly a spontaneous comment.
Chiang Yun was so annoyed by Zhang Yu’s remarks that she felt embarrassed.
Considering Zhang Yu had managed everything alone back then, and yet now even her reduced chores were a subject of complaint.
Zhang Hong couldn’t help but laugh at this point, “Yeah, back then Little Yu managed it all alone.”
It was truly ridiculous, someone doesn’t cook, and then just because they wash dishes today, they start complaining about everything, really shameless.
If it had been just the two of them at home, Guohua would have definitely responded to Chiang Yun’s call and helped with the dishes, but here, with parents and siblings watching, he simply couldn’t bear to help Chiang Yun with the work.
Now, upon hearing Zhang Yu’s words, he couldn’t help but look up at Chiang Yun, implying that it’s just washing dishes, why couldn’t she handle it?
Pan Juan was also full of complaints when doing chores, but as a mother-in-law, she couldn’t say anything too harsh.
But now the situation was different, it was Zhang Yu who spoke up, “Exactly, it’s only washing dishes within our own Zhang Family, why do you need help with that?”
“Just let Guohua and his brothers have a chat.”
Pan Juan was very dissatisfied with Chiang Yun, and if it weren’t for the grandson, she definitely wouldn’t have been polite.
“Some things are meant to be done by women,” Zhang Dagu said discontentedly.
Truly, sons, grandsons, and sons-in-law were all gathered together drinking tea and chatting.
And then Chiang Yun comes out with demanding Guohua work, how could the old man not be angry?
With both mother-in-law and father-in-law speaking out, what could she do?
Chiang Yun could only glare hatefully at Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu was not about to indulge her, “Big sister, why are you glaring at me?
Did I say something wrong?”
“What I said is the truth.
In the past when you came back on weekends, I took care of everything alone.
Oh, and are there any snacks for the afternoon?”
“I remember you always said that you wanted some snacks in the afternoon, and without them, you felt something was missing.”
“Right, big sister, remember to make me some tea.”
“And we’re out of fruit.
Big sister, you are indeed the most virtuous daughter-in-law Mom and Dad talk about.”
Zhang Yu clicked her tongue a few times, “That’s really far from the truth.”
Chiang Yun did not expect that just from glaring at Zhang Yu a few times, she would be so bluntly rebuked.
She really wanted to explode with rage, but she dared not; after all, she was the one who put out those demands back then.
“Big sister, what are you standing there for?
Go do it,” said Zhang Yu casually.
“I remember you used to claim that you could do it better than me,” Zhang Yu said slowly.
