The old lady clapped her hands and said to Shu Yu, "You really hit the nail on the head. I think she's just got too much free time. When Cuihua was pregnant with Yuanyuan, Erniu was still young and there was a lot to do in the fields. It was quite something that she managed to visit Cuihua at all. Now, with nothing else to do, she's just been fussing over the kids."
Another thing is that the Lu family used to be in poor shape compared to the Lai family, and Madam Li didn't have the confidence to quarrel with her in-laws.
Things are different now. Not only has the second branch produced a county magistrate and a child student, but on this side, Daniu is doing well too. He's managing a lot of people and earns more money than the entire Lai family ever could.
Madam Li has money, leisure, and confidence, so isn't she just looking to pick at everything?
The problem is that the one suffering isn't any other than her beloved daughter.
