Run away! The domineering president's strong love

Chapter 77 Conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law

After returning to Beijing, Jin Mingzhu went back to work at the newspaper. She was still very busy, but she was growing every day. Just as she wished, she could help more people, and she enjoyed it.

He maintained superficial peace with Gu Huaijin. He did not take the initiative to cause trouble for Jin Mingzhu, and Jin Mingzhu was too lazy to pay attention to him. She just dealt with it.

"Ding-ling ding-ling..." Jin Mingzhu was talking to Liu Jia about the problems in her manuscript.

She picked up the phone and saw it was Gu Huaijin's mother. After signaling to Liu Jia, she walked to the stairwell and answered the call.

"mom"

Mrs. Gu on the other side was a little dissatisfied: "Why did you take so long to answer the phone?"

Jin Mingzhu responded patiently:

"Mom, I was busy working just now, sorry."

Mrs. Gu was originally dissatisfied with Jin Mingzhu's working in the public eye, and she wished she could stay at home and be a housewife.

There was some complaint in his tone:

"Mingzhu, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but when we women get married, we should focus on our husbands and our families."

"You are Huai Jin's wife now, and our Gu family only has this one male heir. You must work hard to expand the Gu family."

Jin Mingzhu was somewhat dissatisfied with Mrs. Gu's preaching. The lifestyle of taking care of the husband and children was not what she wanted, and she, Jin Mingzhu, would never be bound by marriage.

After all, the other party is an elder. Jin Mingzhu took a deep breath and said slowly:

"Thank you for your concern, Mom. The weather is getting colder, so please take care of yourselves, Mom and Dad." After Jin Mingzhu said this, she planned to wait for Mrs. Gu to hang up the phone.

Mrs. Gu understood what she meant and became a little angry:

"Mingzhu, I am also half your mother, you have to listen to what I say."

"Okay, Mom." Jin Mingzhu said helplessly. She just wanted to end this boring conversation quickly.

But Mrs. Jin obviously didn't want to let her go, and warned:

"You and Huai Jin come back for dinner tonight. I made braised pork for you."

Jin Mingzhu never eats fatty meat, and braised pork is what Gu Huaijin likes. Jin Mingzhu did not expose her, but just responded calmly: "Okay, Mom."

Gu Huaijin must have also received a call from his mother, and quickly sent a message to Jin Mingzhu:

"Honey, I have a meeting this afternoon, so I'll be there later."

He was probably worried, so he called two minutes later and told Jin Mingzhu to wait for him to go back to the old house together. He was a little worried that Jin Mingzhu could not handle his mother.

Before it was time to get off work, Mrs. Gu kept calling her to urge her. Jin Mingzhu sighed, packed up her things and returned to Gu's house.

When I arrived at the old house, I saw Mrs. Gu busy in the kitchen. When she saw Jin Mingzhu, she asked the maid to tie an apron for her and arranged:

"Mingzhu, go wash the vegetables first, then go cut the meat."

There are so many servants in the old house, but Madam Gu chose to order her around. The meaning is self-evident: the mother-in-law wants to intimidate her.

Jin Mingzhu has been spoiled since childhood and has never done housework. She is fine at washing vegetables, but she becomes timid when it comes to cutting meat.

She couldn't eat fatty meat since she was a child. The sight of the white pork made Jin Mingzhu feel nauseous and she couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Mrs. Gu was a little annoyed when she saw her like this, and commanded:

"Hold the meat with your hands, hold the knife firmly and cut it little by little."

Jin Mingzhu's eyes flashed with panic, and she looked at Madam Gu:

"Mom, I don't know how to cut." Then he put the knife on the chopping board.

Madam Gu was a little bit unwilling to give in, and said coldly:

"How can you cut it if you don't even try?"

"It seems like my words as a mother are useless. You refuse to cut the meat even when I ask you to."

I had never met Gu Huaijin's mother before, but I didn't expect that Gu Huaijin's mother was not a pushover. She seemed to want to repeat the suffering she had endured on Jin Mingzhu again, so that she could feel the sense of accomplishment as a mother-in-law.

Jin Mingzhu didn't want to refute anymore, so she carefully pressed the meat and tried to cut it.

Seeing her submissive attitude, Mrs. Gu felt relieved and then made a request:

"You cut it too thick, how can I eat it?"

Jin Mingzhu is going crazy. It is not enough to deal with Gu Huaijin, she also has to deal with her terrible mother-in-law.

In a moment of carelessness, the kitchen knife cut her finger, and Jin Mingzhu screamed in pain.

Mrs. Gu came forward and saw that she had cut her hand and there was some blood on the chopping board. She complained:

"Mingzhu, why are you so careless? How can you eat this meat?"

Jin Mingzhu laughed out of anger. Wouldn't normal people worry when seeing someone injured? But her mother-in-law was worried about not being able to eat meat.

She threw the kitchen knife on the table as if to vent her anger, covered her bleeding wound, and said with a hint of anger in her tone:

"Mom, I've been spoiled since I was a child. My mother doesn't let me do these things."

"When I first came here, you said you would treat me like your own daughter, will you treat your own daughter like this?"

Her beloved son is a human being, but her daughter-in-law is not a human being?

Madam Gu felt a little guilty, so she looked at her guiltily:

"Mingzhu, is there something wrong with your hand?"

Jin Mingzhu raised her bleeding hand to show her and said coldly:

"Sorry, Mom, I can't cut the meat today. Please wait for Gu Huaijin to come back and cut it for you."

The maid quickly fetched the medicine box and carefully washed her hands. Only then did Jin Mingzhu realize that there was a deep wound on her finger, which was why so much blood had been lost.

Madam Gu glanced at her wound and said in a calm tone:

"It's okay, just put two band-aids on it."

Jin Mingzhu didn't want to talk to her, she just lowered her head and watched the maid treat the wound.

"Mingzhu, you and Huaijin have been married for several months, why is there no movement in your belly?" Jin Mingzhu lost her temper. Mrs. Gu's thoughts were too jumpy and she didn't know how to respond for a moment.

"Mom still hopes that you can give birth to a baby for us as soon as possible." Seeing that she didn't say anything, Mrs. Jin added fuel to the fire.

Jin Mingzhu was about to retort, but as his eyes turned, a plan came to his mind.

She lowered her head and sighed, then raised her head with red eyes and looked at the maid:

"You go down first."

Mrs. Gu was puzzled for a moment and looked at her with doubtful eyes.

"Mom, I also want to have a child with Huaijin, but..." Jin Mingzhu lowered her head, seeming sad.

Mrs. Gu was in a very bad mood and urged:

"Mingzhu, what's wrong? Tell me."

"Is there something wrong with your body?" Mrs. Gu asked seriously.

"Then you should stop working and rest at home. If you take good care of your body, you will be able to have children."

Jin Mingzhu looked up at her, as if aggrieved, and said defensively:

"Mom, it's not my problem..."

Mrs. Gu was shocked: Could it be that the problem lies with Huai Jin?

Jin Mingzhu noticed her shocked expression and found it funny, so she turned her head away and pretended to be sad.

Madam Gu was still unwilling to give up, and continued to ask, "It's Huai Jin, isn't it good?"

Jin Mingzhu looked at Mrs. Gu and nodded with tears in her eyes.

She admired her own acting skills, which were becoming more and more proficient.

Mrs. Gu was like a defeated quail at this moment. She no longer had the domineering attitude she had just now, and the light in her eyes had dimmed.

"Mingzhu, you can't abandon Huaijin. He will be cured. He will definitely be cured."

Jin Mingzhu nodded, patted Madam Gu on the shoulder, and comforted her:

"Mom, I don't want to tell you. This concerns Huai Jin's dignity. Please keep it a secret and don't put any more pressure on him."

"Yes, Mingzhu, Huaijin has really found a good wife by marrying you." Mrs. Gu sighed while holding her hand, and then said:

"I will definitely treat you as my own daughter."

"Have a good rest. I'll make you some braised pork, Mingzhu." Mrs. Jin was about to get up when she heard a commotion outside the door.
