The next day, she went to the hospital again. This time, she brought along countless dishes with her. When Mrs. Li saw the amount of food, she skimmed her lips. “You are so wealthy, and yet you are feeding us this kind of food. How stingy can you get?”
Song Wan’s expression froze, but she continued to lay the food on the table in front of Li Manni as though nothing had happened. Then, she handed her daughter-in-law a pair of chopsticks. “Manni, these are all your favorite dishes from Yu Cuisine, the private kitchen you loved. Do eat more.”
“You shouldn’t have, Mom. Thank you.” Li Manni had somewhat recovered. She knew she shouldn’t go all out with her mother-in-law and worsened the situation. After all, they would have to spend the rest of their lives together as a family.
Song Wan was relieved at Li Manni’s attitude. Fortunately, her daughter-in-law was sensitive.
Mrs. Li was embarrassed when she heard the food was from Yu Cuisine. Everyone in their social status knew the reputation of Yu Cuisine. Their executive chef was a descendant of an imperial chef, and the recipes had been handed down through the generations. Their dishes were absurdly costly. A simple meal there would set a person back by at least one or two hundred thousand dollars.
Song Wan brought five or six different dishes. The price would not be low. It would cost her at least a million dollars for this meal which should have been a few thousand dollars. The Chu family was indeed wealthy. However, as wealthy as they were, they didn’t even lend a helping hand to their daughter-in-law’s family. Each time Mrs. Li thought of this, her well-meaning attitude would become harsh in an instant.
From time to time, she would say mean and sarcastic words, hinting at how she had wished Chu Lui could have helped the Lis’ business crisis. However, every time this happened, Song Wan would skillfully avoid the topic to prevent herself from making a decision on her son’s behalf.
