Chapter 6 (1/2)

Xue Gouzi’s voice was very soft and light, and it seemed that the wind would dissipate it.

Xue Cuiping was scared and shook her head, “It’s not your uncle who asked me to come, it’s me, I thought…”

She wanted continued her words but were interrupted by Xue Gouzi again.

He showed a shy smile and seemed to be at ease. He said, “It’s fine that not the eldest uncle asked you to come. Aunt, you almost scared me to death. I thought uncle only loves dearly Juncai but me. Uncle has said he loves me most.”

Since then, Xue Cuiping’s words could not continue, and she had to hurriedly say a few unimportant words, and then lifted the door curtain to go out.

The room was very quiet, the eyes of the young boy on the bed darkened, and a trace of vicissitudes that did not match his age flashed.

Looking at such a little man, Zhao’er didn’t dare to step forward. After a while, she came over and sat on the bed edge, hesitantly said, “Gou’er, are you okay?”

Looking at Zhao’er’s worried face, Xue Gouzi smiled and said, “I’m fine.”

Zhao’er squeezed her mouth tightly and touched his head, “You believe me, one day we won’t ask for anyone.”

Xue Cuiping left without eating lunch, and took a bag of wheat seeds that Zhao gave her.

No one knew what she said to Zhao, and Zhao told her what. All in all, when eating lunch at noon, Zhao and Yang faces were not good-looking, so that Sun and Zhou were cautious.

Zhao’er has never cared about it. After the rice was put on the table, she took two bowls to hold the rice first, and then took the dishes. Lunch was not sumptuous, it was just millet, and the dishes were braise Chinese cabbage and radish, as well as some pickles. There were also meats, all of which were fat, and a small dish was placed in front of the men.

Men have to work on the ground to eat meat to be strong.

Zhao’er didn’t want to eat meat either. The meat burned by Zhou was white and greasy. She put some hot dishes and pickles in the bowl as before, but not too much, but Zhao suddenly fell her chopsticks.

“It’s just a little bit of dishes, you two can eat all of these? Are you the hungry ghost or what?”

These words are very hurtful and face-slapping, but those with some self-esteem can’t stand it, but Zhao’er can get used to it. This is Zhao. Whoever makes her unsatisfactory, she can go back in nausea in various ways.

She was not annoyed. She continued to pick up the dishes. Originally, she planned to pick only those, because Zhao’s words, she deliberately put two more chopsticks.

“There is no way, grandma, the dog has to support himself, and he has no good supplements. The food always has to be full.” Then, she suddenly turned her head and said to Zhou, “Auntie, if washing the vegetables next time, you can call me to help you, and our family is not the family that is too poor to eat, but there are learned men at home, and a Tong Sheng. Although grandma is very careful in her daily life, she is not a person who does not let people eat.”

Speaking of pointing at one but abuse another, Zhao’er confessed that she would not lose anyone, especially she held anger in her heart.

Sure enough, Zhao was immediately annoyed and said, “The rich people can’t stand you eating so much like this. You don’t work every day, but you eat more than anyone else. Like you, this kind of stupid girl, if not in our family, you were pushed out long ago.”

Zhao’er immediately put her smile away, “Grandma, you’re wrong if you said that. I came home at the age of seven, but I haven’t done anything in or out? When my father died, I wore a filial piety, When the mother died, I waited for half a year in front of the bed day and night. I was the daughter-in-law of the second son, and I gave it to the second old man. I’ve sent the second couple to the end, and no one will drive me away.

“But grandma, don’t dismiss my talkative manner as a granddaughter-in-law. Eating divided some diverse kinds is OK, but how can we divide people into different grades? Some people eat very well, the oil on their mouths don’t know to wipe it. But for others, I ate some rotten Chinese cabbage then became a sinner? I raise a dozen chickens in this family, and I haven’t seen too many eggs. Tao’er and I feed them each day, and we don’t know where the eggs are. Since Gouzi has been ill, he just have eaten one egg until now. Don’t let me raise these chickens next time. I can’t eat it anyway. Whoever eats will raise it.”

Zhao’er made it difficult for everyone’s face to look. Among them, the eldest family are the palest, red and white, just like a dyeing workshop.

“Eating on the sly without rubbing it with oil” just means people in the eldest family. Zhao is stingy, but she doesn’t stingy to her husband and eldest son. And Yang and her are naturally covered. The seven-year-old boy’s face was violent, and he seemed to want to say something, but he was pulled by Yang.

Mao Dan in the fourth family is still small, and the mouth is greedy. He were tired of eating Chinese cabbage for a long time. When he heard the eggs, he couldn’t help it and shouted to the Sun, “Mother, I want to eat eggs, I want to eat eggs…”

In the quiet hall, the shrill cry of children made the human brain hurt.

Sun was so upset that she couldn’t help but slap him and said. “Be quiet, what is egg to eat, and how can there be eggs for you to eat!” There’s also a bit of a rush

To put it bluntly, who doesn’t complain, but has been enduring.

Mao Dan was slapped and cried louder. Zhao’s feelings of anger and anxiety turned to him. When she saw this, she suddenly shifted her goal but said, “Sun, you are so powerful now. How dare you to hit my grandson!”

Sun have always been afraid of the Zhao, and immediately smiled awkwardly, “Mother, Mao Dan is so naughty and he wants to eat eggs, don’t you have eggs for him?” The latter sentence is mumbled out, saying that subconsciously she looked at the third wife and her son.

Grandpa Xue has always been indifferent to the affairs of  daughter-in-law, and at this moment, he couldn’t help it.

He blacked his face and patted the table, “Noisy, everyone be quiet!” The square table was shaking, and the dishes jumped up and down with a crisp sound.

Zhao’er did not pretend to be quiet, and grieved at him, “Grandpa,  Granny dislikes me and Gouzi for eating Hess.”

She put the bowl on the table and cried with her face covered, “I just ate a little rice, and even a little bit of oil disappeared, so I was treated unjustly and if someone knows, they will laugh at me. If Grandma really despise me and Gouzi, why not give us a separate room, we will never eat at home and drink again.”

Hearing the word “separation”, Mr. Xue took a subconscious slap from his brow and scolded, “No one is allowed to mention the separation!” It seemed that his tone is too severe, he slowed down the tone and said, “your grandma is upset because of your aunt ‘s family, so she was angry with you, but you are the younger generation, how can you reply defiantly to the older generation?”

He turned around and scolded Zhao, “You don’t have a long memory all the time. You have lived a lifetime to live in the dog’s belly. What are those eggs doing there? Stink is reluctant to eat! The third daughter-in-law, you go to get some to fry and add a dish to everyone.”

Just like this, the words of Mr. Xue made everyone stop talking.

Zhao’er’s eyes flashed. She didn’t cheat when she wanted to separate her family, but she failed at the first time. However, it’s also true that how can Mr. Xue allow them to separate? When it’s spread out, it will become the whole family bullying the two children. Besides, Mr. Xue also wants to twist the whole family into a rope so as to provide another scholar for the Xue family.

Although there was a scene, the whole family started a meat meal.
