Zhang Lan picked up her phone and looked at the calendar. Today happened to be the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar. Just in time, let’s start today. Get up, clear your stomach, brush your teeth and wash your face, pick up your phone and car keys and get ready to go out.

In the yard, his father Zhang Dahai is slowly learning Tai Chi for fitness, and his mother Li Ying is giving instructions on her mobile phone. Seeing Zhang Lan come out of the house with the car keys, her mother Li Ying asked: "Where are you going with the car keys? Someone will come to the house soon. Someone was looking for you yesterday afternoon."

"From now on, I will stop for one day on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year. If someone comes today, tell them to come back tomorrow. I am going to the temple today." Originally thinking of finding an excuse, Zhang Lanshun muttered, but she gave it to herself Determined.

"Go to the temple, then go ahead. I'll tell them when someone comes." Mother Li Ying was no longer stopping Zhang Lan.

Sitting in the car, Zhang Lan originally thought of going out for a day, but when she just mentioned that she was going to a temple, she thought she should go, so she turned the steering wheel and headed straight to the nearest temple.

Taihang is verdant, a paradise of heaven and earth. The temple is built on a rock pillow and stands among the green mountains. It is the rainy season at this time, and water overflows everywhere in the stone crevices inside and outside the temple. Water flows continuously through the clouds and rocks, splashing to the ground, and the sound reaches the sky, which is pleasant to the ears. Zhang Lan put 200 yuan into the merit box in front of the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva in the main hall of the East Temple, bowed devoutly three times, and then went down the mountain.

When I was going down the mountain, I remembered that I hadn’t been to the house in the city for a while, so I drove towards the city. On the way, I stopped at the vegetable market to buy some vegetables. Ever since I acquired master-level cooking skills, Zhang Lan always wanted to try out her own skills every now and then.

Zhang Lan's urban house is on the third floor of the Family Courtyard of the Municipal Finance Bureau. It has three bedrooms, one living room, one bathroom and one balcony. The real estate certificate says it is 110 square meters, but it actually costs more than square meters. The home was simply renovated. Although she bought a second-hand house, Zhang Lan, who comes from an ordinary rural family, also emptied her wallet before making a down payment.

Zhang Lan, who was carrying a large bag of ingredients, had just taken out the key and inserted it into the keyhole to open the door. "Click!" The door opened from the inside. Just when Zhang Lan was about to take a step back to see if he was on the wrong floor, he smiled. A quirky little face emerged from the crack in the door, and she greeted Zhang Lan sweetly: "Good morning, brother-in-law!"

Zhang Lan is already thirty this year. She bought this house in the city just for a blind date and marriage. I was introduced to Li Yan last year. Li Yan has a gentle and calm personality and a sweet and cute appearance. Zhang Lan, who fell in love at first sight, quickly launched an attack. They were introduced to each other on a blind date, and their parents knew everything about them. After talking for a few months, Li Yan took Zhang Lan to Li Yan's parents' house during the Chinese New Year, and the relationship was settled. Unfortunately, less than two months after the two established their relationship, Zhang Lan's father, Zhang Dahai, fell ill and was hospitalized. When she was first hospitalized in the ICU, Li Yan's mother took her to visit her once, but she never came again. More than two months have passed, and Zhang Lan and Li Yan have not spoken on WeChat for more than a month.

Li Yan is a standard good girl who grew up listening to her parents. At that time, Zhang Lan's father, Zhang Dahai, was notified of critical illness on the first day in the intensive care unit and had to pay more than 2 yuan in treatment fees every day. After that, he came out of the intensive care unit with his life saved. He was lying on the hospital bed and needed help even when he turned over. Zhang Lan can understand Li Yan's mother's approach, she is also doing it for her daughter's good. At that time, Zhang Lan had a father who was paralyzed in bed and didn't know if he would recover. He also incurred a large amount of debt. Zhang Lan was already very grateful that she didn't take the initiative to cancel the engagement, but after her father recovered from his illness, Zhang Lan didn't want to go back. Go and continue this relationship.

This little girl who suddenly appeared is Li Yan's cousin Li Tongtong, the daughter of Li Yan's aunt, and can be regarded as Zhang Lan's sister-in-law. I am a freshman at a normal school in the city.

When Zhang Lan chased Li Yan before, she had a headache with this sister-in-law. There are a lot of weird routines I learned from the Internet. If I have nothing to do, I have to learn the online routines and toss Zhang Lan. Although she is very cute, Zhang Lan is indifferent to her.

Li Yan's aunt's home is quite far from the city, and it takes five or six hours by car. After Zhang Lan and Li Yan got together, Li Tongtong would occasionally stay with Zhang Lan on weekends when she didn't want to live on campus. Because Zhang Lan and Li Yan had to go to work, they gave the little girl a key.

After seeing clearly that it was Li Tongtong, Zhang Lan breathed a sigh of relief. But his head seemed to hurt again, and he replied feebly: "Tongtong, you are here, isn't today Friday? Why are you here at this time? Don't you have to go to class in the morning?"

"Brother-in-law! Do you know what life is like for contemporary college students? Are you so unwelcome to me?" After hearing Zhang Lan's words, Li Tongtong was very angry.

While talking, Li Tongtong opened the door and welcomed Zhang Lan into the house. She took the ingredients Zhang Lan was carrying and entered the kitchen. She took the ingredients out of the bag and put them one by one in the kitchen refrigerator.

Zhang Lan sat down on the sofa in the living room, sighed and said, "Don't call me brother-in-law anymore. Your sister and I have broken up."

Li Tongtong put ingredients in the refrigerator and turned around in surprise: "Brother-in-law, you really want to break up with my sister. My aunt has followed my sister to and from get off work every day for this month. You won't break up just because of this, right?"

The words that hit his ears made Zhang Lan's head hurt even more, and he felt his temples bulging. I couldn't help but scratch my forehead with my hands and let out a long sigh.

At this time, Li Tongtong had already put away the things and closed the refrigerator door. Came to Zhang Lan's side and sat on the sofa nearby. He took an apple from the coffee table and peeled it, and said: "Brother-in-law, I will peel an apple for you to eat. I think you should think about it carefully. You also know that my sister has been listening to her parents' words since she was a child. Damn, my aunt did do something wrong this time, but my sister didn’t do anything to be sorry for you.”

Zhang Lan could understand the behavior of Li Yan's mother, and he would not let his daughter marry into such a family as soon as the relationship was established, but Li Yan's behavior always made Zhang Lan feel uncomfortable.

"Besides, your sister and I are both only children, and marriage is not a matter between two people." Zhang Lan sighed, and a glimmer of light flashed in Li Tongtong's eyes when he heard this.

"Marriage is not a matter of two people. Now, isn't marriage a matter of two people? Brother-in-law, are you blaming my sister?"

"Stop talking about this, Tongtong, I will cook you a delicious meal at noon today, and I will drive you back in the afternoon." Zhang Lan stood up and walked to the kitchen.

When Zhang Lan and Li Yan were together before, Zhang Lan's craftsmanship was at best able to make an edible meal, but it was indeed not worthy of recognition. Usually Li Yan cooks and Zhang Lan washes the pots and dishes. But now that Zhang Lan is possessed by the game, she naturally has to show off her master-level cooking skills.
