The CEO's Wife and First Love

Chapter 188 The Contest between Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law

After Jinlan returned home from Lizhen's place, as soon as she saw Qiuyan, she felt an inexplicable disgust and aversion in her heart.

It was as if Qiuyan had a trait that she couldn't stand, which made her feel particularly annoying.

Especially seeing Qiuyan doing nothing every day, coming back every day dressed up and carrying a lot of bags home, Jinlan thought that Qiuyan was just a vase who only knew how to spend money and could not do any real work.

No matter how Qiuyan behaves or what she does, she cannot change her opinion of Qiuyan.

This feeling was like an instinctive reaction, which she herself could not explain clearly, but was deeply rooted in her heart.

What's worse, she blamed Qiuyan for Wang Kun's declining business and poor performance.

Especially now that Wang Kun’s business is on the verge of closing, Qiuyan is not there to help Wang Kun find a solution, but is still spending money like water outside as usual every day.

Jinlan thought that when my son was still in the family and Lizhen was still around, our family business was going smoothly and getting bigger and bigger. But why did the business plummet after Qiuyan, the vixen, came to our house? She thought all this was caused by Qiuyan's existence.

If it weren't for Qiuyan, Wang Kun's business would be better and wouldn't have reached this point. I have to think of a way to get rid of her and bring back my good wife Lizhen.

This idea became stronger and stronger in her mind, becoming a huge rock in her heart, weighing heavily on her heart.

"Mom, I'm back." Qiuyan put on makeup again that day and dressed herself up very beautifully. She came in from outside with a few shopping bags in her hands.

"Yeah." Jinlan looked at her intently, and she answered her casually.

"I say, KunKun, your company's business is so bad now, and business is so difficult nowadays. Can you save money and buy some useless things every day?" Jinlan was very angry when she saw Qiuyan coming back with a lot of shopping bags today.

"Making money to support the family is a man's job, and we women just need to take care of the household." Qiuyan might be tired from shopping, so she sat on the sofa in the living room drinking tea and answered Jinlan lazily, looking a little tired.

"Making money to support the family is a man's job, but it turns out that Lizhen is in charge of the factory affairs every day and is very busy." Jinlan was furious when she heard Qiuyan say this, and she immediately used Lizhen to attack her.

"Besides, as a woman, do you manage this household? You just hang out outside every day. How many hours do you stay at home? What do you manage at home?!" Jinlan's voice was full of disappointment and dissatisfaction.

Qiuyan stared at Jinlan with wide eyes, a trace of grievance and helplessness flashing in her eyes.

She tried to explain: "I don't hang out outside all the time, sometimes I go out because of necessary things.

"Besides, I also tried my best to take care of the family..." But her voice became smaller and smaller, as if suppressed by Jinlan's momentum.

Jinlan interrupted her and continued, "Try your best? Is that your excuse? You never pay attention to the things at home. Don't you care about the children's studies and the health of the elderly? And the housework is done by Kunkun's father and me. We take the children to school every day. We do those things all day long. What do you do besides going out shopping every day? Think about it carefully. Is this what is called a 'woman housekeeper'?"

Qiuyan listened to Jinlan's accusations silently, tears welling up in her eyes, but she tried hard not to let them fall.

She took a deep breath and said, "I know I haven't done well enough, but I really tried my best. Maybe we can find a way to solve the problem together instead of just blaming each other."

Jinlan looked at Qiuyan, but she was still indignant. She thought that her daughter was a thousand times, ten thousand times worse than Lizhen.

"Mom, please don't mention Lizhen in front of me all the time. No matter how good she is, she is no longer your daughter-in-law." Qiuyan felt extremely uncomfortable with her mother-in-law mentioning Lizhen.

Whenever I heard this name, I would feel an indescribable disgust in my heart. Especially when my mother-in-law compared me with Lizhen and implied that I was not as good as her, the jealousy and discomfort surged into my heart like a tide.

This feeling put Qiuyan in a contradictory situation. On the one hand, she wanted to avoid conflicts with her mother-in-law as much as possible, but on the other hand, she could not suppress her inner dissatisfaction and loss.

"I don't mention her, but you are inferior to her in every way. If you want me not to mention her, you can do your own thing well. You do it better than Lizhen, and then I won't mention her." You only know how to spend my son's money and can't even help my son at all.

At this time, Jinlan remembered everything she had seen at Lizhen Company a few days ago. She was very sad. Why is my son so unlucky? He lost the watermelon but picked up a sesame seed, and it was a useless rotten sesame seed.

"But no matter how good she is, she doesn't want your son anymore. No matter how good she is, she is no longer your daughter-in-law. Do you have the ability to call her back?" Qiuyan was no pushover. When she heard her mother-in-law speak so harshly, she simply couldn't bear it anymore and started arguing with Jinlan.

"If it weren't for you, a vixen who always pesters my son, Kun Kun would never want you. You shameless woman, you not only harmed my son, but also my whole family. When my wife Lizhen was here, Kun Kun's business was booming, getting better every year. Now since you came into the family, Kun Kun's business has been getting worse every year. You, a jinx, whoever marries you will be unlucky for eight lifetimes." After listening to what Qiuyan said so harshly, and mentioning Lizhen, Jin Lan's anger that she had been holding back for a long time burst out and all of it came out.

"You old woman who only cares about the elderly and has no respect for the elderly!" Qiuyan cursed with gritted teeth: "If I didn't see that you are Brother Kun's mother, I would have not tolerated you a long time ago! Tell me clearly today, why don't you let Brother Kun and I be together? What did we do wrong?" She clenched her fists tightly, her eyes full of anger and grievance.

"I am your wife now, but you keep mentioning your ex-wife Lizhen. Is that interesting?" "How dare you ask me this?" Jinlan's voice became sharp. "Since you came into this family, Kunkun's business has plummeted! You only know how to eat, drink and have fun all day long, and don't care about his work at all! But Lizhen is different. She does her best to help Kunkun run his business, so he can succeed!"

Qiuyan felt a pang of pain when she heard this. She admitted that she was indeed lacking in family matters, but she had been working hard to change. She decided to have a good talk with Jinlan, hoping to resolve the conflict between them.

"Mom, I know I have many shortcomings. However, I also hope that you can give me a chance to prove myself. I will work hard to learn how to run a family and pay more attention to Kun Kun's career.

We can get through this difficult time together and make this family happy again." Qiuyan said sincerely.

Jinlan looked at Qiuyan, and her anger gradually subsided. She realized that quarreling would not solve the problem, but would make the relationship worse. Perhaps she should try to accept Qiuyan and work together for this family.

"Okay, since you are determined, I will wait and see. I hope you can do what you say." Jin Lan's tone softened a little.

Qiuyan breathed a sigh of relief. She felt the change in Jinlan's attitude and saw hope for improving the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. She decided to work hard to be a better wife and daughter-in-law from now on and bring more warmth and happiness to this family.

Jinlan nodded in agreement. The two decided to sit down, communicate seriously and formulate a reasonable family management plan to improve the current situation. They understood that only by understanding and supporting each other can the family become better.
