Chapter 82 Nan ​​Ke Slaps Face

The room fell silent for a moment.

Li Nanke raised her head, her eyes crinkling as she looked at Song Yi.

In the past, whenever Li Zhenxuan cried and demanded things from the eldest son's family, whether it was food or utensils, his mother would eventually give in.

This made Li Zhenxuan increasingly arrogant and rude.

She had just been thinking about what she should do if her mother gave in.

Unexpectedly, Mother refused this time!

Even more shocked was Mrs. Sun, who subconsciously picked at her ear and stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

Song Yi actually refused!

How dare she?

Before she could react, Li Zhenxuan had already sat on the ground and started throwing a tantrum.

Pointing at Song Yi, he angrily cursed, "You wicked woman, you bitch, if you give me glutinous rice chicken, I'll beat you to death."

Song Yi turned pale with anger. She wanted to scold him but couldn't bring herself to do it in front of a child. Her hand trembled with rage as she pointed at Li Zhenxuan.

Li Nanke rushed over, pointed her little finger at Li Zhenxuan, and cursed him crisply and loudly.

"You're the worst, you're the most despicable!"

"You're seven years old already, and you still throw a tantrum because you can't get your sticky rice chicken. You're such an idiot."

"You're so clumsy, I bet you wet the bed at night too? Ugh, it stinks."

"Stupid and smelly!"

Her little mouth, as if wound up, sprayed a series of spittle at Li Zhenxuan.

For a seven-year-old boy, being called stupid or bedwetting is a devastating blow.

Li Zhenxuan was stunned for a moment, then burst into tears of anger.

"I'm not stupid, I... I didn't wet the bed."

"Enough!"

Madam He slammed her hand on the table and shouted angrily with a cold face.

She was already frail, and this angry shout triggered a series of coughs, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Song Yi quickly poured her a glass of warm water.

"Mother-in-law, don't be angry, or else I..."

Madam He understood what she meant, put down her teacup, and shook her head at her.

He turned and looked coldly at Madam Sun.

"Kneel down!"

Sun's expression changed, and she could only kneel down, holding up her skirt, feeling extremely wronged.

"The child is just being silly and crying a little. Why does the mother-in-law have to get so angry?"

Mrs. He: "He is seven years old, not a two or three-year-old child. He has already started his formal education. Does he not even understand the most basic rules and etiquette?"

What kind of family has a boy this age who yells and insults at his elders? Is this how you usually teach him when the second child isn't around?

If this gets out, you and your son will have completely disgraced the Li family."

Sun pursed her lips tightly, her face full of resentment.

"In the end, it was just a plate of sticky rice chicken. If my sister-in-law had shared it with the two children earlier, none of this would have happened."

"You can't teach your child well, and you're blaming your sister-in-law? You're just blaming the river bend for not knowing how to row a boat, or blaming the hunting dog for not catching a fox."

"You only know how to criticize others, why don't you look down and examine your own shortcomings?"

Sun's eyes welled up with tears of grievance.

"My daughter-in-law is taking care of the whole family's food and drink. The family is now struggling to make ends meet. The children eat vegetables and tofu every day and haven't seen any meat for days."

The two children are too young to understand, and when they see the sticky rice chicken, they will surely cry and fuss because they are so hungry.

The mother-in-law kept blaming her daughter-in-law for not raising the children well, but one of them was only seven years old and the other was only five.

As a mother, seeing my children craving so much makes my heart ache so much that I wish I could cut off my own flesh to feed them.

"It's just two bites of sticky rice chicken. Sister-in-law is the child's own aunt. How can you be so heartless, watching the child cry like this and not even giving him a bite?"

So, in this big family, we, the second branch of the family, are the outsiders?

Sun looked somber, and her words still carried a hint of reproach towards Song Yi.

Song Yi's eyes reddened with anger.

"When my sister-in-law secretly bought roast chicken and pork knuckle and ate them behind closed gates, why didn't she think of giving my Ke'er a bite?"

Ke'er is only a year older than Xuan'er. Aren't you Ke'er's aunt?

Sun was speechless and subconsciously retorted.

"The family is currently short of funds. As the person in charge of managing the household affairs, I take the lead in tightening our belts and have never secretly bought meat."

How could my sister-in-law make such baseless accusations? Do you have any evidence? If you have no evidence, you're slandering me.

Sun looked even more wronged than Dou E, and insisted that Song Yi produce evidence.

Song Yi was so angry that her face turned red.

She heard it from her mother-in-law, Madam He, but where is the evidence? Besides, we can't implicate Madam He.

While they were locked in a stalemate, Li Nanke picked up a piece of glutinous rice chicken and held it to Li Zhenxuan's nose.

Li Zhenxuan's eyes lit up, and he involuntarily sniffed.

Li Nanke waved the glutinous rice chicken in front of him, then pulled it back before Li Zhenxuan could reach for it.

He chuckled.

"Is the sticky rice chicken delicious?"

Li Zhenxuan stared longingly at the glutinous rice chicken and nodded emphatically.

"fragrant."

"It tastes even better than the roast chicken you ate yesterday?"

"Mmm, it smells even better than roast chicken."

Li Zhenxuan blurted it out.

"You're lying! You didn't eat any roast chicken yesterday, you idiot, you liar!"

"No, I didn't. My mom gave me..."

All of this happened so quickly and suddenly that when Madam Sun realized what was happening, she immediately shouted at Li Zhenxuan to stop.

"Xuan'er! Don't talk nonsense."

Li Zhenxuan looked dissatisfied and said loudly, "I'm not lying. You did give me two big chicken legs yesterday."

Li Xinyou, who was standing to the side, looked at Li Zhenxuan, then at Sun Shi, and burst into tears.

"Mom, you're lying! You gave my brother two big chicken drumsticks yesterday, but only one to me!"

"Why should my brother get two? I don't care, I want two too!"

Li Zhenxuan glared at her.

“I am the older brother and also my grandfather’s only grandson, so of course I have to eat two.”

"Wow, my brother is a big bad guy."

Li Nanke blinked her bright, grape-like eyes and asked, feigning ignorance, "Didn't Second Aunt just say that she didn't buy meat for my younger brother and sister?"

Where did they get the chicken legs they were eating?

Sun's face turned ashen; she could only recall a surge of anger rising to the top of her head, making her forehead throb with rage.

The noise from her son and daughter seemed to transform into two loud slaps, striking Sun's face hard, leaving her unable to utter a single word in her defense.

Madam He gave a cold snort.

"Is this what you call leading the way in tightening your belt? Letting the whole family eat coarse food while you and your two children eat alone behind closed doors."

You never thought of sharing anything with Ke'er when you were eating all by yourself, so why are you demanding that Ke'er share with your child now? It's ridiculous.

Feeling aggrieved, Mrs. Sun covered her face and wept.

“My daughter-in-law didn’t want this either. As the person in charge, I know I should set an example, and I’m prepared to eat vegetables and tofu every day.”

But it's one thing for us adults, but the two children are at the age when they're growing, and they're visibly getting thinner because they don't get enough meat to eat.

Her daughter-in-law couldn't bear to see her crying and wailing at home every day, so she secretly used her own money to buy a roast chicken.

“My daughter-in-law swore that she absolutely did not use any money from the public account; she really bought it with her own private funds.”

"If the eldest sister-in-law can use her own money to make sticky rice chicken for Ke'er, can't the daughter-in-law buy roast chicken for her own child? The mother-in-law is being too biased."
