Chapter 7 Fighter Jet in an Argument

Jinran watched everyone drinking water with a smile, and her older brother said loudly, "Little sister, why is your water so sweet?"

My second brother also said, "And it's cool too, I don't feel hot anymore after drinking it. Little sister, you're a lifesaver."

Jinran has gradually gotten used to their filtered perspective.

There's no way around it, that's just how likable I am.

The whole family looked at Jinran with affection, except for her aunt, who pouted and took a big gulp of water.

Jinran carried the empty kettle and walked slowly home. She still really liked this kind of life, unhurried and carefree.

When she got home, she found that Shen Yanhong was not home. Jinran didn't pay attention to it. Seeing that the weather was nice today, she thought of taking the quilt out to air it so that she could sleep more comfortably.

But looking at her brothers' blankets, Jinran fell silent. They were so dirty, it was almost unbearable to look at. It seemed her mother had completely neglected her brothers' upbringing!

Jinran then began to huff and puff as she washed, but fortunately her family was quite particular and had bed sheets, otherwise her eldest and second brothers would have had to sleep under the open sky tonight.

I searched around for some unscented laundry detergent and used almost a whole bottle before I could finally get the clothes clean.

Then Jinran's obsessive-compulsive tendencies kicked in, and she took down and washed the bed sheets for herself, her grandparents, and her parents.

Just as Jinran finished washing and hanging the clothes to dry, her mother returned. Seeing her working, she shouted, "My goodness, what are you doing?"

Jinran was startled.

Wang Cuifen ignored Jinran's explanation and said directly, "You've just gotten a little better and you're already causing trouble. What are you going to do with your brothers' dirty blankets? I'll wash them all together after I finish the work in the fields in a few days..."

Jinran quickly interrupted, saying, "Mother, I'm fine. I'll do more so you can do less. I feel bad for you working so hard!"

Wang Cuifen was deeply moved and kept saying, "I've finally found someone who cares about me after all this time. I haven't lived in vain. It has to be my little daughter."

Jinran's father: "???"

After tidying up the yard, Jinran busied herself filling the water vat. Wang Cuifen said she would wait for her brothers to come back so they could do it.

Jinran didn't give in; it was just a matter of convenience.

After everything was tidied up, Shen Yanhong returned leisurely, holding a bunch of wildflowers in her hand. Wang Cuifen rolled her eyes unhappily and said, "Oh, whose young lady is this? You're never around when you're free. I knew this family couldn't count on you. Luckily, I came back early to cook, otherwise, the whole family would be starving."

Shen Yanhong said unhappily, "I was just going out for a while. I've finished all the housework. Don't take advantage of your status as an elder to boss me around. I'm not eating or drinking your food, so what's it to you?"

Wang Cuifen was no pushover. Jinran was sweating bullets for the female lead. Her mother was one of the best fighters in the village. How could she dare to provoke someone like that? She was truly a monster.

Sure enough, Wang Cuifen put one hand on her hip and pointed at Chen Yanhong with the other, scolding, "As your aunt, I'll teach you a lesson. Go ask around in the village. Girls your age who aren't in school are all working in the fields. Are there any like you who are still doing such leisurely work at home? Don't tell me you don't eat or drink our food. Bah! The work points your family earns aren't even enough for your mother to support her family. If I say anything to you, you'd better listen to me."

Shen Yanhong's eyes turned red from the provocation, and she said angrily, "You're being disrespectful to your elders! Your own daughter doesn't do any work either!"

Wang Cuifen said with a proud smile, "Look at the quilt covers in the yard. What are those? They were all washed by my daughter. Besides, I can afford to support her. Unlike your mother, who only cares about her own family, my family helps me. I have five older brothers."

Jinran doesn't really need to be so proud.

Jinran felt a little smug about having five uncles, so she... put her hands on her hips.

Everyone gradually returned, and seeing the tense atmosphere in the courtyard, Grandma Shen broke the deadlock and calmly asked, "Tell me, what happened?"

Shen Yanhong cried and said, "My third aunt is so unreasonable. She just can't stand me. What did I do wrong? I just finished my work and went out for a while. When I came back, she scolded me. I'm such a grown woman. How am I supposed to live?"

The eldest aunt said unhappily, "Does she think our eldest son's family is easy to bully? Honestly, she just beat someone up a couple of days ago, and now she's starting to cause trouble again. If this family can't tolerate us, she should say so sooner rather than later, instead of doing these underhanded things."

Jinran raised her hand to speak. Grandma Shen was about to get angry, but seeing Jinran's expression, she forgot everything and asked with a smile, "Nini, what do you want to say? Are you scared?"

Jinran shook her head. "No, I just meant that Shen Yanhong didn't just go out for a short while, she went out for a very long time."

Shen Yanhong said, "I really thank you."

Grandma Shen eventually decided to ignore it and had everyone go cook, and that was the end of it.

Shen Yanhong was even more furious. It was definitely favoritism; this family had to be divided. This couldn't go on like this, or she would go crazy.

Besides exploring the space, Jinran spent her evenings studying. After several days, she finally finished reviewing the elementary school knowledge systematically and then began reviewing the junior high school knowledge.

Studying made her bald and unhappy.
