Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander novel Chapter 166

Chapter 166: Chapter 166: Ways of Love

Yang Hongying sighed, "I know my mother-in-law doesn’t like me; what she said really hurt. She seems to quite like you."

Sun Chan pointed outside, "Does she really like me? She’s just trying to annoy you. Don’t let it get to you. You know my background, you’re a city person, you were in the army, and you have your brother. I’m an orphan from the village, without connections or money. They surely dislike me, but we’re kindred spirits. Luckily, our partners love us sincerely and consistently. So we are happy."

Yang Hongying blushed slightly. Indeed! If it were anyone else being opposed by their family like this, they would have given up long ago. Gu Juntao chased after her from so far away and even retired from the army for her sake, he was a good one, which made her feel better.

The two daughters-in-law and an aunt cooked together. The chicken, duck, fish, and meat were prepared in advance, so they were served soon. Mr. Yan and Gu Dongfang weren’t there, so there was no need to worry about health issues. Some oily dishes were also served.

Braised pork, scallion stir-fried pork, and steamed pork, rare to see on the table, were served, making Gu Zishan and Yan Kai, who loved meat, very happy.

"You actually know I like this!" Gu Zishan laughed as he ate a big piece of braised pork.

Yang Hongying laughed and said, "Jun Tao said you like this meat dish the most, so I learned it specially."

"Great, not bad." Gu Zishan gave a thumbs up.

"Mom, this is what you like, the crispy fried purple mushrooms. Try it."

Wang Guihua hummed in response, picked up a piece of garlic sprout, and started eating. Yang Hongying bit her lip, and Gu Juntao patted her back, picking some dishes for her, "Eat what you like."

"Okay." Yang Hongying forced a smile.

Yan Kai saw Sun Chan only eat cold salad and shredded potatoes, and laughed, "Afraid of getting fat?"

Sun Chan said, "No, I’ve been eating too much meat these days, feeling a bit greasy, it’s nothing."

Gu Junming poured a cup of tea for her, "Drink this, it will relieve the greasiness."

Sun Chan smiled, took it and drank. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Gu Zishan thought to himself, truly from a poor family, couldn’t handle even a bit of meat. The head daughter-in-law was like this, Gu Family’s luck must be bad, right?

The meal was tasteless and uneventful, occasionally Wang Guihua would say some sharp words, but everyone ignored them.

Gu Junming saw Sun Chan almost finished eating, so he put down his chopsticks.

"Finished eating? Let’s go back then, it’s dark already." After such a long train ride, hardly rested, and ate such a tiring meal, he wanted to go back quickly to rest.

Sun Chan hurriedly stood up, she was done long ago.

Wang Guihua laughed, "Leaving already? Stay a bit longer."

"No, my vacation is almost over, I’ll take her home first, I need to go back to the army."

"Alright then, visit when you have time! I’m always welcoming you here." Wang Guihua was very enthusiastic, Gu Zishan was very calm. Just gave his wife a fierce glare.

Yan Kai bid farewell too, and gave Gu Junming a look, obviously wanting to talk.

The three of them left, Wang Guihua went upstairs, ignoring Yang Hongying and Gu Juntao.

Gu Zishan nodded to the couple, "Clean up and rest early. Stay here and don’t leave tonight."
