I Refused to Be a Substitute, and Shot to Fame on a Variety Show With My Mother-In-Law - Chapter 51

51 Can’t Leave Li Xiwu for a Minute

Tao Jing couldn’t help but praise, “Wow—Xie Wen, you’re really beautiful.”

Xie Wen praised her openly. “You too.”

Tao Jing asked, “Xie Wen, where’s your mother-in-law?”

Xie Wen said, “She’s taking care of Shenshen. She’ll be down soon.”

!!
Tao Jing did not react for a moment. “Shenshen… is?”

Xie Wen said, “My daughter.”

Tao Jing instantly reacted. “Oh.”

Soon, the second group of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law entered the inn. Everyone present turned to look at the second group of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Xiang Lan was a fitness trainer. After working out for so many years, she maintained her figure very well. Not only did she have a good figure, but her face also looked very young. There were fine lines but she did not look old at all. At first glance, one would think that she was in her early thirties.

As a doctor, Xu Muzhen’s temperament and state naturally could not be compared to her mother-in-law. After staying up too late, the bags under her eyes were more obvious.

Xu Muzhen and Xiang Lan’s personalities were different.

Xiang Lan’s personality was slow to warm up when there were many people. On the other hand, Xu Muzhen was very cheerful on the outside. Perhaps because of her profession as she had to deal with many patients every day.

At this moment, after Xu Muzhen sat down, she took the initiative to greet everyone warmly. When she saw Min Hanrong and Xie Wen, she instantly became a fan.

The atmosphere was especially good.

Not long after, Zheng Yuehua came down and sat down on the other side of Xie Wen. “Wenwen, I’ve coaxed Shenshen to sleep. Eat breakfast in peace later. I’m here.”

Xie Wen nodded. “Okay.”

Li Xiwu looked up at Zheng Yuehua. “Aunt Zheng.”

Zheng Yuehua noticed Li Xiwu and smiled kindly at her. It had to be said that Zheng Yuehua really displayed the image of a good mother-in-law in front of the camera. She had a firm grasp of being a two-faced person. The audience could not find any fault with it.

Li Xiwu noticed that the necklace on Zheng Yuehua’s neck was the one she had bought yesterday. She treated it as the first time she had seen that necklace today and praised, “Aunt Zheng, the necklace on your neck suits you very well.”

Zheng Yuehua understood. She was recording a show to find a topic. She placed her hand on Xie Wen’s shoulder and continued Li Xiwu’s words. “Wenwen bought me the necklace. It’s not just this one. Wenwen also bought me many gold and silver jewelry.”

Min Hanrong chimed in, “Sister Zheng, you’re so lucky.”

Zheng Yuehua showed off. “I don’t know what good fortune I had in my previous life to have a good daughter-in-law like Wenwen in this life. No, she’s my biological daughter.”

Han Qianye did not reply. She thought to herself, If I hadn’t heard you shouting at your daughter-in-law outside the door, I would have believed you.

After that, everyone ate breakfast together.

Min Hanrong was elegant and calm as she chatted and laughed.

Xiang Lan looked expressionless, but in fact, she did not know what to say. She could only eat and listen. Occasionally, when the topic touched on her, she would add on.

Zheng Yuehua worked hard to show her good mother-in-law side. She poured milk for Xie Wen and took fruits. She was meticulous and considerate.

Han Qianye did not have much of an appetite. She stopped eating after a few bites and watched Li Xiwu eat the noodles.

Li Xiwu sensed Han Qianye’s gaze. “There should be quite a lot of missions today. Eat more to replenish your strength.”

Han Qianye said, “What’s so good about carbohydrates?”

Li Xiwu said, “Rice is also carbohydrate.”

Han Qianye rested her chin on her other hand. “I don’t have an appetite.”

The breakfast prepared by the show was very rich, but Han Qianye looked around and saw that everyone was eating happily. Only she did not want to eat anything. Probably because there were many people, Han Qianye had never eaten breakfast with so many people.

Li Xiwu opened the chili sauce in front of her and scooped a spoonful of it on the plate. She mixed it and began to eat.

Han Qianye asked, “Isn’t it spicy?”

Li Xiwu chewed and swallowed slowly. “The spiciness of this chili sauce is average.”

Han Qianye was skeptical. “Really?”

Li Xiwu said, “I can eat spicy food, so I think the spiciness is average.”

Han Qianye stared at the small jar of bright red chili sauce and was tempted to try it. Li Xiwu could tell that Han Qianye was tempted, but she did not invite Han Qianye to try. Everyone’s acceptance of spiciness was different. She felt that it was ordinary, but Han Qianye might not think so.

Even if Li Xiwu did not invite her, Han Qianye wanted to try. But it was really too red. Women were naturally experimental with bright red things. Hence, Han Qianye picked up her chopsticks and mixed some chili sauce from the small jar before putting it into her mouth.

Li Xiwu did not notice Han Qianye’s action. She ate the noodles seriously, but as she ate, she suddenly heard a hissing sound beside her. She looked up at Han Qianye.

Han Qianye asked calmly, “What’s wrong?”

Li Xiwu thought she had heard wrongly and lowered her head to continue eating her noodles.

Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!

Li Xiwu looked up at Han Qianye again.

Han Qianye was still very calm. “What now?”

Li Xiwu was silent for two seconds before pushing the cup of warm water that she had not drunk to Han Qianye.

Han Qianye, who had always wanted to be strong, said, “Why are you giving me water? I didn’t eat chili sauce. Hiss… I didn’t eat it. I really did… Hiss…”

Li Xiwu: “…”

Netizens flooded the comments screen.

[I’m laughing so hard that my teeth are missing. Hahahahaha…]

[A woman who wants to be strong in her life. Has Han Qianye forgotten that she’s on camera? We all saw her touch that jar of chili sauce.]

[Just a sip. Hissing all day.]

[I used to like to watch Min Hanrong, but now I like to watch Han Qianye and Li Xiwu. Is anyone like me?]

[I like Xie Wen’s mother-in-law even more. Xie Wen’s mother-in-law is really too good. She’s simply a dream mother-in-law!]

[I think Xie Wen’s mother-in-law is really good. I finally understand why Xie Wen gave up her career back then.]

[With such a good mother-in-law and a husband who loves her, and given birth to a cute daughter. Her life is complete.]

[Support Xie Wen’s mother-in-law!!!]

After breakfast.

The small morning task was simple. Group Two and Group Three had just arrived in Fu Town and were not familiar with it yet, so in the morning, Group One and Group Four took Group Two and Group Three outside to familiarize themselves with the environment of Fu Town.

After reading the book of wild protected animals, Han Qianye volunteered confidently, “I’ll lead the way.”

At this moment, Min Hanrong said, “It’s one thing to go out, but someone has to arrange lunch.”

Tao Jing took the initiative. “I’ll arrange lunch at the inn.” After saying that, she glanced at Li Xiwu.

Li Xiwu spoke up. “I’ll stay.”

The two daughters-in-law stayed while the mother-in-laws went out. This arrangement was very appropriate.

Han Qianye’s confident expression instantly became less confident. “Why don’t I… stay too?”

Min Hanrong: “?”

Han Qianye was confident because she thought Li Xiwu would follow her out. However, when she heard that Li Xiwu was going to stay at the inn to arrange today’s lunch, she immediately did not want to go.

Min Hanrong asked, “Can’t you leave your daughter-in-law for a minute?”

Han Qianye said self-righteously, “That’s right.”
