I Refused to Be a Substitute, and Shot to Fame on a Variety Show With My Mother-In-Law

Only Li Xiwu Understood Her

At the same time, the live-stream of the third group of guests was also very popular.

Xie Wen, who had just come out of confinement for more than five months, looked quite good under the cover of her makeup. But once she removed her makeup tonight, the fans might not recognize her.

How could Xie Wen, the most popular starlet in the entertainment industry in the past, look so haggard?

“What kind of mother can’t even make a supplement for her child like you?”

“The milk bottle has to be hot after it’s rinsed. It has to be sterilized. Be careful with the heat.”

“And the water temperature of that milk powder. I’ll remind you again to be accurate to fifty degrees! Fifty degrees! Got it?”

The mother-in-law of the third group of guests, Zheng Yuehua, was ‘teaching’ her daughter-in-law all kinds of parenting knowledge.

Xie Wen stood beside the sink cleaning the milk bottle. There was a basin of boiling water in the sink. Her fingertips were red from the heat, but the camera was not aimed at Xie Wen’s hand. Instead, it was aimed at a distant scene.

Xie Wen maintained a friendly attitude and said briskly, “I know I have to kill the bacteria.”

Zheng Yuehua was quite satisfied with Xie Wen’s attitude. She instructed, “Cook early at noon. I’ll take care of Shenshen.”

Shenshen was Xie Wen’s five-month-old daughter.

Xie Wen replied, “Got it, Mom.”

[Back then, the Empress Qing Qiu (played by Xie Wen) was my first love. And now, Xie Wen is a mother. How old is she? Only 24, right?]

[I feel that Chi Xu’s mother has a f*cking bad temper! I wonder if it’s my imagination?]

[But Xie Wen is such a proud person. She has always been smiling and her tone is very light. I feel that her relationship with her mother-in-law is not bad. Perhaps she’s usually like this?]

[That parenting knowledge just now was also correct. Although Xie Wen’s acting career is a pity, she has a good husband and a good mother-in-law.]

[I can’t see through Xie Wen. Only Sister Li should understand her.]

[But Sister Li didn’t persuade her back then.]

The comments were flooding the screen.

...

Fu Town was a scenic area outside the capital. Tourists who came here had to book tickets on the official website in advance to enter Fu Town. Some people would be curious why they had to book tickets on the official website in advance to go to a suburban town.

Due to the fact that salamanders, Siberian grouses, red-bellied horned salamanders, and other national level-two protected animals were often seen in Fu Town, the process of coming here was more troublesome to avoid accidental harm to the level-two protected animals here.

Currently, the live broadcast was in the middle of a sponsor’s advertisement.

Without the camera facing her, Han Qianye felt much more at ease. She lamented, “It’s really tiring to sit in the minibus for so long. If only we were in my private car, I could even sleep comfortably.”

Li Xiwu had just opened her suitcase when she heard Han Qianye’s complaint. She replied, “Auntie, you have to think carefully before coming.”

“Who are you to remind me?” Han Qianye snorted.

Li Xiwu was calm enough, so no matter what tone Han Qianye used to speak to her, she would not be angry. She stowed her luggage. She greeted Han Qianye and went downstairs first. As she climbed the stairs, she heard the melodious sound of a piano. It was the familiar prelude to A minor.

Tao Jing was sitting at a Yamaha piano, playing a tune briskly. Her mother-in-law, Min Hanrong, stood behind Tao Jing and admired her seriously.

The innkeeper was a person who understood the mood. He had specially set up a piano and a zither in the inn. Currently, the zither has been sent for maintenance, leaving only a piano in a conspicuous position in the inn. Tao Jing was a piano teacher, so she was happy when she saw the piano.

As Li Xiwu approached, Min Hanrong noticed her and greeted her with a smile. Li Xiwu smiled back.

The song ended.

Min Hanrong clapped her hands and praised, “Jingjing, this song is so good. Why haven’t I heard it before?”

Tao Jing stood up with a gentle smile on her face and explained to the curious mother-in-law, “This song was composed by a short video blogger a year ago. It’s called ‘Altenis in A Minor’. At that time, it was forwarded by various platforms and even became a trending topic. It’s said that the blogger created this song as an impromptu inspiration and to give it to a friend who made her regret it.”

“Could the friend who made this blogger regret her boyfriend?” Min Hanrong continued to ask curiously.

“It’s not.” It was Li Xiwu who answered.

Min Hanrong and Tao Jing turned to look at Li Xiwu. Tao Jing asked first, “You’ve also seen the original work of that blogger, right?”

Li Xiwu nodded. “I swiped it by chance.”

Tao Jing’s eyes were full of light. “I also saw it by chance. I think Mother Dragon is very talented at both playing the piano and composing. Unfortunately, she only posted the piece ‘Altenis in A Minor,’ which is related to the piano. The rest is all good food. But I’ve been paying attention to her. I hope one day she can post a few more songs.”

The ‘Mother Dragon’ Tao Jing was referring to was the creator of Altenis in A Minor.

This blogger’s ID on the short video was ‘Tyrant Dragon’. In order to make it easier for netizens to address her, they changed from ‘Dragon Dragon’, ‘Little Dragon’, ‘Dragon Treasure’, to ‘Mother Dragon’.

Min Hanrong asked Li Xiwu, who was chatting with his daughter-in-law, “You seem to know a little about these things. Do you know how to play the piano?”

Before Li Xiwu could answer, Han Qianye, who had come downstairs, said, “She doesn’t.” At this moment, Han Qianye walked over. She stood beside Li Xiwu and explained kindly, “Our Xiwu has had a hard life since she was young. She didn’t even have enough to eat when she was studying. How could she have the money and energy to learn to play the piano?”

When Min Hanrong heard that the fourth group’s daughter-in-law was a phoenix, she immediately smiled meaningfully. “How lucky.”

“It is.” Han Qianye went along with Min Hanrong’s words. “Ever since Xiwu came to our house, I’ve been very good to her. I can’t bear to let her do anything.” At this point, Han Qianye turned to look at Li Xiwu. “Right, Xiwu?”

Li Xiwu responded, “Yeah.”

Min Hanrong raised the corners of her lips. At first, she was worried that the fourth group would steal their limelight. It turned out that they were a group of plastic in-laws. Then, don’t blame her for being rude.

“Jingjing,” Min Hanrong shouted. Tao Jing answered.

Min Hanrong said with a smile, “Today is the first day of the recording. You’re the piano teacher. Play two songs for them to admire.”

Tao Jing would never refute her mother-in-law’s words. She immediately nodded and agreed. “Okay.” Then she went to the piano and sat down. The way she sat, the shape of her hands, the raised arms, and the straight curve of her upper body revealed Tao Jing’s professionalism.

[Wow! The first group of guests is simply too pleasing to the eye.]

[This tune is my favorite fall whisper!]

[I really like the scene of Min Hanrong and her daughter-in-law interacting. When Tao Jing was playing to her heart’s content, Min Hanrong stood at the side with a proud expression. How are they mother and daughter-in-law? They’re biological mother and daughter!]

[Is there a talent show in Group Four?]

[With Sister Li’s swift and decisive work attitude, if she doesn’t know how to play the piano, she should know how to cut bricks with her bare hands.]

...

At this moment, Han Qianye frowned. Seeing Min Hanrong’s daughter-in-law shine, she naturally felt uncomfortable. However, on the one hand, she did not want Li Xiwu to be too outstanding on the variety show. On the other hand, she felt aggrieved. Damn! She was inferior to these two women!

Feeling indignant, she whispered to Li Xiwu, “What do you know?”

Li Xiwu said, “I know how to appreciate it.”
