"Ernie, why didn't you come until now, the cold drinks you ordered have melted." In a café in Seocho-gu, several women in silk shirts were sitting and chatting in the corner, and when they saw a tall young woman at the door, they immediately stood up and beckoned her over.

"Shengyu's mother, are you blaming me for being late?" Choi Yeon-sook sat down after rolling her eyes.

"Look at what Ernie said, we don't dare to blame you, so we pointed to you to liven up the atmosphere." The woman who is called Seungwoo's mother, whose real name is Lee Jae-young, and Choi Yeon-sook are residents in a community, and they also have a bit of kinship with each other.

"A few of us are not like those stinky men, who are busy with business and work at every turn, but the sisters drink afternoon tea, how can there be anything late and not late." The woman who spoke was the oldest and looked the most dignified, and her husband was more powerful than the husbands of several others, so the small organization was headed by her.

"Don't be ashamed of me, it's true that I'm late today, everyone's bills will be counted on my head later, and I can't always let you break the bank." Cui Yanshu's smile is very distinctive, and it can always make people feel sincere, but whether the real situation is like this, only she knows in her heart, "But it's not that I want to be late, my mother-in-law suddenly wants to eat sugar lotus root after taking a nap, and she has to let me buy it for her, no way." ”

The young women sitting here are very similar to each other, whether it is the dress, demeanor, or even the small details of makeup, this is because they all have the same identity: the daughter-in-law of Seocho-dong. In South Korea, even the daughters-in-law of Cheongdam-dong will feel a head shorter when facing the daughters-in-law of Seocho-dong, and only a woman like Jessica who marries into Pyeongchang-dong will feel superior to them.

Seocho-dong is located in Seocho Administrative District, and is separated by Gangnam Avenue to the east of Gangnam Administrative District. To the west, the Dongjak Bridge connects the Tongjak district, making it the second center of Seoul. Unlike Gangnam, where there are many high-rise buildings, more than half of the area of Seocho-dong is a green belt, and it is a miracle south of the Han River, where every inch of land is at a premium, and there are only two factors that make this miracle possible. One is power, the other is money. The Seoul Supreme Prosecutor's Office and the Supreme People's Court of South Korea are both located in Seocho-dong, where almost all the bigwigs in the legal system live, and the headquarters of the Samsung Group is also located here, and many of the company's top executives have settled here. Walking the streets of Seocho-dong, almost every man is in a hurry because they have a better career than other Korean men and need to work hard to maintain it.

The biggest feature of Seocho-dong is that there are more women than men. Men are often very busy and need to run here and there to make sure they can afford to live in Seocho, while women are mostly idle at home, spending time with their mother-in-law or sister-in-law, which has become a kind of ecology in Seocho-dong. Cui Yanshu was arguing with her sister-in-law at home at noon, obviously having a stable job, but she stayed at her brother's house all day long. As a result, her mother-in-law didn't say anything at the time, but asked her to go to Tongren Market to buy sugar lotus root in the afternoon. Obviously, a large group of servants in the family still have to ask her to go out to buy it in person, which is obviously revenge, but no matter how angry she is, as a daughter-in-law, she can only bear it.

"Alas, that's how we are women, and I say something taboo. The old ones above don't die, and the ones below don't have a good life. "Yang Eunjin, who is called the eldest sister, is the head of the Legal Affairs Department of the Ministry of Justice of South Korea, and Li Jingming, who served as the chief minister of the Ministry of Culture and Finance in his previous life, is definitely a prominent status, and her husband is only forty years old, but his rank is not low, which can be called a young and promising. But she didn't have a good time.

"Ernie, look at it, our little thing is really nothing, I don't know if you have heard about the incident two days ago, the daughter-in-law of the Li family, it is the one named Zheng Xiuyan, she is miserable." Kim Hyun-joo (Thinking by day, thinking by night...... Write) pretended to glance around nervously, as if he was afraid of being heard, but in fact there were almost only a few of them in the café, and a woman with a baseball cap, but she sat far away.

"What's the matter, you have news lately?" Most of the women are gossiping, especially the stay-at-home wives, who are more bored than the other, and they are counting on some "good material" to live. Jessica's name has all been heard of by these people, maybe when she was an artist, these daughters-in-law of Seocho-dong didn't care much about her, but she married into the Li family and married Li Jingming, so she couldn't help but care.

"I heard...... I heard that the eldest lady of the Li family, who disliked that Zheng Xiuyan was from a civilian background, and disliked that the cultural level of the family was not high, so she broke up the mother and son, and now she doesn't even see each other, but she can't see her mother if she doesn't even cut off her milk. Kim Hyun-joo had an exaggerated expression of regret, as if she was the party, "What's more is still to come, to say that this Zheng Xiuyan is also a woman in temperament, sneaking into her mother-in-law's yard at night, trying to steal her son out and hide in her mother's house, but naturally she was discovered, and it is said that she was almost killed." ”

"Tut-tut, why is it so miserable, no matter how high-ranking his Li family is, he can't bully people like this." Choi Yeon-sook pouted and shook her head, compared with what happened to Jessica, she really felt that she was nothing, at least her son was picked up and dropped off by her every day, and she was also with her at home, "But I said Hyun-joo, why are you talking so much like the scene in the TV series, is it true?" ”

"The bridge in the TV series...... Hehe, my good Ernie, are you so good at writing scripts, you can come up with anything out of thin air? The episodes of those TV series are not all in reality, just change the details, I have a distant cousin who also married into the Li family, and it happened to be in the yard next door that day, and I can see it clearly. In the face of Choi Yeon-sook's questioning, Kim Yun-joo swore that there was something that didn't actually exist, "That scene is really miserable, those who hear it are sad, and those who see it cry." ”

"No, a few days ago, the Li family put a full moon wine for Li Jingming's son, isn't it quite lively? I don't see any contradiction at all. Li Zaiying was a little puzzled, Li Jingming had put a full moon wine for his son before, but it was in an uproar, and it came out in the news.

"Those people's things, on the surface, look glamorous, who can know what is like behind the scenes? Even if it's more exaggerated than that, I can believe it. Choi Yeon-sook pointed to the truth.

These people had a cheerful discussion here, but Jessica actually didn't even scratch a little oily skin that night, if anyone really dared to do something to Jessica, Li Jingming would have to go crazy. The rumors are 108,000 miles away from the facts, but the gossip can be spread nine and a half times out of ten, and what was originally a small thing can become a terrifying urban legend if it is passed on two or three times.

When Jessica was a trainee in S.M, she experienced the horror of rumors, obviously there was nothing wrong, but she was rumored by other trainees that she had something to do with this and that, so that in the end, she almost died in girlhood, and the real reason was just because she was beautiful and got two debut opportunities to attract jealousy. It is precisely because she has suffered losses before and felt the power of this poisonous trick that Jessica thought of using this trick to deal with her mother-in-law Jin Yunshu, and Jin Yunshu has indeed been mentioned again and again in the past two days.

"If this is true, the people of the Li family are indeed too inauthentic, just because they are children from poor families, just because they are artists?" Of course, Jessica's upbringing is not compatible with poverty, Zheng's father and Zheng's mother are not too bad to spend money after retiring, but she deliberately promoted it for the effect of rumors, and this happened to touch the most sensitive place in Yang Enzhen's heart, her mother's family situation is not very good, after meeting her current husband in college, she has been under the eyes of her in-laws' family, as if she married into their family with ulterior motives, "Speaking of which, I am also the daughter of a poor family, but I didn't make a fuss." ”

"Ernie, it's hard to say, don't talk about the past, even if our family is now in the eyes of the Li family, I'm afraid it's also a poor family." Kim Hyun-joo's expression is very complicated, these women always like to discuss the affairs of the Li family, the Kim family and other big families, just because they have envy in their hearts, although they look very pitiful Jessica, but if they want to change it, I'm afraid no one will refuse.

Jin Yunshu sat there alone and listened to the gossip for more than half an hour, one of the protagonists of this gossip is herself, which makes her feel particularly wonderful, today she originally came to Seocho District to see a lawyer, and she wore a hat for fear of being recognized, and as a result, she met a group of gossiping women, and really discussed her family affairs. Jin Yunshu had to admit that Jessica had succeeded, and these women didn't know any of them, but they were serious about things that hadn't happened, as if she, the mother-in-law, had given Jessica something.

Kim Yun-su brought Lee Zar to Suwon, mostly because she didn't like Jessica going out to be an artist, and hoped that she could take care of her children at home and take care of Lee Kyung-myung with peace of mind. Her own son hurts, Jin Yunshu hopes that Li Jingming will marry a woman who can take care of him, as for what Jessica likes to do and what ideals she has, from her standpoint, there is nothing to care about, this is where she has a conflict with Jessica.

"Runshu, I'm really sorry, a party came to the office just now, I delayed for a while, didn't let you wait too long?" Li Meilan is Jin Runshu's classmate when she was studying at Ewha Women's University, and she is also a good best friend, the two met in a big lecture, and later became friends, and Li Meilan was born in law, and after getting a doctorate, she became Jin Runshu's legal adviser, and today Jin Runshu came to her to discuss something with her.
