"I'd be thanking my lucky stars if my mother-in-law didn't point at my nose and criticize this and that," Xian Yue said.
"Heh, you don't know my mother-in-law..."
...
Susu hadn't expected her cotton-padded jacket to spark such a rant from her sisters-in-law, with the vibe that they could go on for days and nights without end.
It was like sitting on pins and needles, like having a thorn in one's back.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity, the sisters-in-law shifted topics, now talking about their husbands and children.
"I see Xiao Su's belly isn't small, it's gotten as big as mine was around four or five months."
"Maybe it's just a lot of amniotic fluid. There was a young wife in my mother's family with a big belly, but they said it was just the fluid."
"Xiao Su, are you experiencing any morning sickness now?"
