Walt smirked, "grandmother, if you let the information out, there will be a big number of pupils for the cook training school this year."
Looking at him, Alena said with a smile, "since a younger brother has been married, you as a brother should not fall behind too much. Your heart should be settled."
"Yes, I will." Walt said to ingratiate himself with a little resentment in his heart. He would have got married if it were not because Zac took away his pineapple.
Zac kept picking up food for his grandparents. Every dish cooked by his wife was delicious, so he wanted his grandparents to have a taste.
Abel and Alena wore a satisfied smile on their faces, which made Mary and Valery uncomfortable. Mary and Valery had planned to embarrass Essie in front of others, but they didn't expect that they would help her leave better impression to Abel and Alena. Essie was indeed a cunning fox who could handle everything well.
After lunch, Essie went back to her bedroom to take a break. She had been busy all morning and was very tired.
Lying on the sofa, Zac massaged her shoulders lovingly. "Honey, thank you for your hard work today."
"It doesn't matter. I'm happy to see that grandparents enjoy the food." Essie smiled in a casual way. She sighed in her mind, 'my mother-in-law has become an excellent mother-in-law for many years. As long as my mother-in-law is there, I'm sure I will have a hard time in the future.' Why did Mary dislike her? Mary always deliberately made difficulties for her and played tricks on her. It was really difficult to understand.
"I can see that grandparents like you very much." Zac said with a smile.
"Freezing guy, your mommy is so lucky to have such a kind and reasonable mother-in-law as grandmother." Essie said faintly. She was just as unlucky as her mother Lucy. Like Lucy's mother-in-law, Mary didn't get along well with Essie.
Zac knew what she meant. He comforted her by putting his arm around her shoulder. "Honey, don't worry. Take it easy. It's not your fault, it's my mommy's. maybe Elizabeth and her daughter have fooled her too much. She won't wake up in a short time, but she will come around after a long time."
'I hope so.'
Heaving a sigh, Essie thought, 'if it's only because of the Elizabeth and her daughter, there's still a chance to recover her relationship with Mary, and if it's just like the way Mrs. Vicki hates her mother, they would be an ineffable enemies.'
In another room, Valery was in rage. And Essie's smug face was a heavy blow to her. Sage was not in a hurry. She had already thought of a best way to deal with Essie.
"Miss, you are going to..." Sage whispered in Valery's ear.
"That's really a good idea!" said Valery, smiling. She then stood up and went to see Mary according to her plan.
Tomorrow was the first day of the lunar month, which was a good day for worshiping Buddha. Valery proposed to go to the temple to pray for her child. Thinking that Alena also believed in Buddhism, Mary nodded.
So in the morning of the next day, Rong family's daughters-in-law, granddaughter-in-law, and Valery all went out with Alena.
The temple in the suburb was grandiose with soothing incense. After worshiping the Buddha, everyone came to the pavilion to have a rest. At this time, an old man with long beard, dressed like a monk, walked over. The man gave Valery a thumbs up when he saw her and said, "this girl is very rich and influential. You can have great fortune if you marry any of them." After a pause, he continued, "it seems that you have been in trouble with your marriage recently."
"Mommy, the master is right." She pretended to be surprised and said, "I want him to get even for me, okay?"
"If you want to." Said Mary lightly.
The old man with white beard sat down in front of Valery and asked her about her birthday and slowly stated it. He made a boast of Valery, including the empress's life.
Thrilled, Valery turned to look at her mother-in-law and said, "Mommy, the master is right. He even knew that I couldn't get back to my family and had a hard time when I was a child."
Originally, Mary did not take it seriously. But hearing the old man's words, she became more interested and turned her attention.
Pretending not to hear what the old man said, Alena took out a porcelain vacuum cup from her bag and said, "grandma, this is the lily soup I made for you this morning. It's still warm. Would you like some? It can help to clear your throat and is good for your asthma. " Alena had asthma, which was the reason why she wanted to live in Switzerland. Switzerland was the clearest country in the world. It was a good place for people who had asthma to recuperate.
"Look, how filial my granddaughter-in-law is! You even prepare sweet water for me when you go out." Alena took the vacuum cup with a smile.
"I've always been feeling that Essie is a good girl." Sally continued, "Mary is sometimes too harsh on her. If my son can find such a dutiful daughter-in-law in the future, I will definitely treat her as my own daughter."
