Qin Jiao was full after one bowl. She stood up and walked around a bit, but her back was a little sore, so she sat back down and leaned against the sofa.
Shen Yi carried his noodle bowl over to eat beside her, his eyes fixed on her expectantly.
Qin Jiao said with a sigh, "Do you even have to ask? Of course she isn't happy. With someone like Li Xiaomei for a mother-in-law, a strong-willed daughter-in-law would be fighting with her all day. A meek one would be bullied relentlessly, probably even to the point of depression."
"Doesn't Shen Feng stand up for his wife?"
"Think about it. When Lin Nian gave birth to a daughter, Li Xiaomei was so unhappy she left on the spot. She never went back to see the child, and Shen Feng didn't say a word, did he?"
If she acted like that right after the child was born, you could imagine how things had been since.
After hearing this, Shen Yi made a quick comparison and concluded, "It seems I'm much better than Shen Feng."
