Rebirth of the Legend of the Red Age

Chapter 92: Mother Gives Up Her Throne

On the first Sunday after Lai San got married, Wang Li invited the families of Zhang Fang, Li Ren and Zhao Gang to a gathering in the courtyard.

To celebrate Lai San's marriage, the main guests were Zheng Lan and Zhou Mei. After all, Zheng Lan did not show up on the wedding day, so she helped out this time to make up for her regret of not attending the wedding banquet on the day.

Or because Zheng Lan’s situation is special, she is still in the stage of hiding her identity and trying not to show up in front of outsiders as much as possible.

She didn't have so many worries at home. Through this gathering, she fully demonstrated her abilities as a lady from a noble family. She helped Lai San and his wife arrange the gathering very well and took good care of the female family members from each family.

The atmosphere is very harmonious when chatting, and the topics are mostly in line with the interests and hobbies of most people, which makes both the host and the guests happy.

Wang Li's mother saw everything Zheng Lan did, and she sighed: She is worthy of being from a big family, her communication skills and affinity are so strong, I can't compare to her at all.

She also thought that after Zheng Lan married into this family, her arrangements for various household expenses were more reasonable and comprehensive than when she was in charge of the family alone.

Wang Li's mother has decided to give up power to Zheng Lan. After all, she is old and her family background is not very good. She is just an ordinary rural woman. Although living in the city in recent years has changed her temperament and the way she handles things.

However, due to the limitations of knowledge and experience, some of them cannot adapt to Wang Li’s current circle of friends.

After all, as the levels of Zhang Lei, Zhao Qiang and Li Hu became higher and higher, Wang Li's three apprentices grew older and got married and had children one by one, and the Wang family came into contact with more and more people, who were getting younger and younger.

My mother is obviously unable to keep up with the current situation in terms of interpersonal relationships and entertaining guests. She thinks that instead of dealing with it reluctantly, it would be better to hand over the housekeeping power to a more suitable person.

Therefore, starting from this banquet, Zheng Lan gradually took over the backyard affairs of Wang Li's family and the welcoming and seeing off of female relatives and friends.

Wang Li's mother smiled more often. After all, she no longer had to worry about so many things, and Zheng Lan was also very filial and sensible, making her life easier and happier.

Zheng Lan was equally happy. After all, she couldn't often show up in public at the moment and could only focus her life at home. Her mother's handover of power gave her more things to do and made her life more fulfilling.

Zheng Lan was also recognized by several families. They all said that Zheng Lan was capable and had a good personality. Wang Li was blessed to marry her. With the help of Zheng Lan, Lai San's wife Zhou Mei quickly integrated into the group. The women of several families got along better and had closer relationships, which made it easier for the men to get along with each other.

Zheng Lan has become the support group of Wang Li's circle of friends, that is, the center of the wives' group.

In short, after Zheng Lan took over her mother's housekeeping power, Wang Li's family, including Lai San's family, lived a more comfortable life.

This made the mother very proud. After all, it was she who took the initiative to hand over the housekeeping power to Zheng Lan and fully supported her in running the family.

Therefore, the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law became better, and the legendary phenomenon that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are natural enemies did not occur.

This also made Wang Li feel a little relieved in his heart. Although he knew before marriage that Zheng Lan had high abilities and emotional intelligence and would get along well with her family, those were just ideas after all, and were not as intuitive and real as reality.

So now he can finally put his mind at ease and feel fortunate to have married such a good wife.

It is almost late autumn, and the vegetables planted in Wang Li's vegetable garden have matured. Today, his mother, Zheng Lan and Lai Xiaomei are picking vegetables in the vegetable garden.

Winter is coming soon, and they need to pick all the vegetables and store them in an underground warehouse at the entrance of the courtyard.

There are not so many out-of-season vegetables now, so we need to stock up on vegetables for the winter.

Wang Li's mother chatted: There is not much rain this year, and the vegetable harvest is not good. I also heard from my old family that the harvest of crops this year is not good, and we will probably go hungry again next year.
