Liu Yanhong started cooking only after she saw the people from the fields coming back. She was afraid that her mother-in-law would scold her, so she said something.

"At noon, little Lihua was clamoring for food, so I made her some corn cakes."

She had done this before. Anyway, Jiang Rongxi wouldn't tell anyone, so all she had to do was give her something to eat.

But today was different, because Jiang Rongxi was in the fields with them at that time and it was impossible for her to appear at home.

As soon as she said this, everyone looked at her.

She was a little unsure, thinking that they were blaming her for making such delicious food for Rong Xi, wasting the family's food, and added.

"I'm sorry, Mom. I saw that Xiao Lihua was really hungry, so I took the noodles you left in the cupboard."

Jiang's mother didn't say anything, she went straight into the cupboard and opened it, only to find that there was a lot less noodles in it.

She grabbed Liu Yanhong's arm and pulled her out.

"You troublemaker! They say it's hard to prevent thieves even if you guard against them day and night. Did you take these noodles to your mother's house?"

Liu Yanhong felt a little scared when she saw her mother-in-law's cannibalistic behavior. How could she know that?

"Mom, please don't blame me. These are all made for Little Lihua. If you don't believe me, ask her to come out and ask."

Rong Xi didn’t like to see her family quarreling often before, so when her sister-in-law said that, she would admit that it was true.

Liu Yanhong believed that Jiang Rongxi would still cover for her in this way this time. At worst, he would just make some delicious food for her later.

"Okay, this is how you treat my daughter when I'm not home. Then, were those things that Xiao Lihua said to have eaten also sent to your mother's house? You troublemaker, I'm going to beat you to death today."

Jiang's mother grabbed Liu Yanhong's hair. The eldest and second sons saw this and quickly went to grab one of them.

Liu Yanhong, who was pulled away, sat down on the ground and started howling.

"Oh, what did I do wrong that you treat me like this? I even gave birth to a grandson for your Jiang family, and you treat me like this. Oh, I won't live any longer."

Jiang Xiangshang spoke before Jiang's mother slapped him.

"Just shut up."

"Oh, you bastard! Your mother wronged me and you didn't believe me. I'm going to die and jump into the river with my child."

Mother Jiang: "Get out of here! I won't tolerate a troublemaker like you."

Jiang Xiangshang: "Okay, have you had enough of making trouble? If you have, then hurry up and get in and start cooking."

Jiang's mother was furious. "Who wants such a troublemaker to cook? If she does it a few more times, you'll all starve to death."

Liu Yanhong wanted to cry, but was stopped by Jiang Xiangshang's words.

"Just shut up! Xiao Lihua isn't home during the day. She's out in the fields bringing us water. Who are you going to eat the corn cakes you made?"

Liu Yanhong stood there in a daze. She wondered why that little bitch hadn't come out after all the arguing.

But now I don’t know how to explain the cornmeal.

"Didn't you say you were making it for Xiao Lihua? Where's the food?"

Jiang's mother was forced to sit down by Jiang Qianjin.

Liu Yanhong didn't dare to say anything and kept her head down.

After a while, Jiang's father said to Jiang Xiangshang, "If it happens again, we will split up the family. It will be the same for all three of you brothers."

The eldest and second sons didn't expect Jiang's father to say that.

There is no such thing as a family splitting up in this village. Only families that have a huge conflict and can no longer get along with each other will split up.

The Liu family at the east end of the village split up more than ten years ago.

People still laugh at them now, and their two sons are also said to be unfilial. They never go out except to go to work.

People in the village won’t take the initiative to say hello.

"father."

"That's it."

Jiang's mother was also shocked by what Jiang's father said. She knew that he would not do this if it didn't involve his daughter.

This incident also made the brothers realize the place that Xiao Lihua held in their father's heart.

.

"Mom, we're back."

Jiang Qi was shouting at the top of her lungs from a distance, and Rong Xi followed behind her.

As soon as Jiang Qi entered the house, he quickly closed the gate and excitedly opened the basket on his back to show Jiang's mother.

"Mom, what do you think this is?"

Jiang's mother was already in a bad mood after having just had an argument, and the words "Get away from me" were on the tip of her tongue but she swallowed them back.

Then it turned into a sentence "Hey where did this fish come from?"

When the eldest and second oldest sons heard what Jiang Qi said, they came over, and even Jiang's father, who was smoking a pipe at the door, looked over.

"This is what Xiao Lihua saw. When we came back, Xiao Lihua said her hands were dirty and she wanted to go to the river to wash them.

As soon as we got to the river, we saw two big fish stuck there. We fished them out while no one was paying attention."

"If you take your sister to the river at this hour, I'll beat you to death."

"Mom, you, Mom, listen to me, it was Xiao Lihua who wanted to go, so I went with her, Mom..."

After eating the stir-fried bamboo shoots with pork, Jiang's mother repeatedly warned Rong Xi not to go there next time. After Rong Xi's repeated assurances, Jiang's mother took a fish into the kitchen.

And Rong Xi.

In the past, when she came back from outside, she would definitely lie down on the bed first.

But this time when she came back, she actually took a shower first and cleaned herself up before coming out to sit and eat with everyone.

Father Jiang got angry when he saw her like this. She cleaned up so quickly, probably just for the newly arrived He Zhiqing.

Everyone who was enjoying their meal suddenly felt that the air pressure was not right, and they were all secretly looking at what Father Jiang was doing.

Rong Xi also felt that something was wrong, but it couldn’t be because of him.

Rong Xi's small mouthfuls of food made Father Jiang frown. He used to eat in big mouthfuls, but at his previous speed he would have finished his second bowl now.

With a bang, Jiang's father put the wine bowl on the table, which scared Jiang so much that he quickly put away the chopsticks he had been using to pick up the fish.

Everyone at the table handled the situation carefully, not knowing where Father Jiang's anger came from.

After eating, Rong Xi felt like leaving this Shura scene as soon as possible. When she stood up, everyone was looking at her. Was she done eating?

Usually, I have three bowls of corn rice as a base, and I have just finished the first bowl.

"Xiao Lihua, are you feeling unwell?"

Jiang Mu asked sincerely, and the others listened attentively.

"Mom, I'm fine. I'm fine."

Rong Xi felt that she was not full yet. She felt that she could still eat a lot more, but if she wanted to lose weight, she had to start with her diet.

When Mr. Jiang heard this, he became even angrier and ate much faster.

It was not until she went to bed at night that she learned from her father the reason why he was angry today.

"Don't be angry, it hasn't even started yet. Why don't we just not let them meet each other? You can talk about that He or something else some other time..."

"He Zhicheng."

"Yes, He Zhicheng assigned him to sweep the pigpen. Our daughter is most afraid of stinky things."

Father Jiang thought this was feasible, as the boy couldn't earn many work points.

Such a good job, some people want to do it but can't do it, it's a good opportunity for this guy.
