Chapter 7 Apprehensive

The voices outside continued, "Mother, if my third brother's wife accuses me and my fourth sister-in-law of something later, you must not believe it! Otherwise, you'd fall for that woman's trick and wrong me and my eldest sister-in-law."

Amidst Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Han's harmonizing, Mrs. An walked up to the door of the room where Su Yunjin was staying.

Mrs. An pushed open the door and entered, her eyes suddenly lighting up when she saw Su Yunjin sitting up on the bed; even her voice carried a hint of joy, "Yaya's wife, you're all right?"

Mrs. Zhang, the wife of the eldest son, and Mrs. Han, the wife of the fourth son, initially said that Su Yunjin had awakened, but Mother-in-law Mrs. An did not believe it.

Only when she truly saw that Su Yunjin had woken up, did Mrs. An realize that Su Yunjin had indeed awakened!

Mrs. An was overjoyed; now that Su Yunjin had awakened, she no longer had to worry about finding a wife for her son, Gu Ya.

Su Yunjin, looking at the woman before her and using the memories in her head, knew this woman to be her mother-in-law, Mrs. An, who appeared genuinely kind and concerned.

The memories suggested that this mother-in-law was a decent person, and she was quite good to the original owner of this body.

On the whole, Su Yunjin did not have an aversion to her mother-in-law, Mrs. An, and nodded, saying, "Mother, my husband had already called for the doctor to see me; the doctor said I just need to take two prescriptions and I will be fine."

"Really?" Mrs. An looked overjoyed, sizing up Su Yunjin, "That's wonderful, so wonderful. Third daughter-in-law, it's such good news that you're fine, truly the blessing of our ancestors."

While Mother-in-law Mrs. An was very happy about Su Yunjin's recovery, the eldest sister-in-law, Mrs. Zhang, was quite displeased and snorted coldly, "Why even call for a doctor? Does seeing a doctor not cost money?"

The Gu Family was already struggling to put food on the table!

And they were senselessly spending silver.

Mrs. Zhang's face turned as black as coal; the Gu Family was already poor, barely seeing a few silver coins come in a year.

Hardly any copper coins came in.

And yet they kept spending.

Mrs. Han, the fourth son's wife, also looked displeased as the surname Su had already cost them ten to twenty copper coins after falling unconscious, and now they were spending again.

Mrs. Han thought about the money that had been spent, and it pained her as if she were cutting flesh from her own body.

Mrs. Han, who had initially hesitated about whether to throw Su Yunjin into the mountains to feed the wolves, now regretted not heeding her eldest sister-in-law's advice to carry Su Yunjin out and leave her in the mountains.

If they had done that, would they be dealing with this now?

With Su Yunjin awake, Mrs. An was particularly delighted and took the initiative to show her concern, "Third daughter-in-law, you must be hungry, right? You just rest well; I'll go cook porridge for you right now."

Su Yunjin had been in a coma for two days, not having eaten anything during that time; touching her stomach, she indeed felt hollow inside.

She was somewhat hungry!

Before Su Yunjin could even speak, the eldest sister-in-law, Mrs. Zhang, snorted, "Mother, isn't the third daughter-in-law already fine? If she's hungry, can't she cook something to eat herself? Is she so precious that she needs you to tend to her?"

"Mother, when my eldest sister-in-law and I weren't feeling well, we didn't see you making porridge for us; why is the treatment different when it comes to third sister-in-law? Mother, you're being too partial."

Mrs. Han could not stand seeing Mother-in-law Mrs. An going to make porridge for Su Yunjin.

Both the eldest sister-in-law, Mrs. Zhang, and Mrs. Han shared the same displeasure, "Hmph, the third daughter-in-law is all right now; Mother, you can't be so partial, otherwise, I and the fourth sister-in-law won't stand for it."

Su Yunjin quickly glanced toward Mrs. Han and Mrs. Zhang, somehow making them feel inexplicably guilty.
