“You’ve been shoveling manure quite a bit all the time.” Niu Dazhu glared at her fiercely, and Niu Erjie shivered, shutting her mouth, the meat in her mouth suddenly losing its flavor.

She also wanted to have a good talk with Tiedan about buying a house, as well as her youngest son's future job. She wanted Tiedan to help her find a good job, one that was easy and paid well. She also wanted Tiedan to help her youngest son buy a house in Pingjiang and introduce him to a wife from a big city, so that her son could also become a big city dweller, and she and her youngest son's family could enjoy a comfortable life together.

Sister Niu tugged at Sister Niu Er, telling her to say less. Father was in a fit of anger, and whatever she said would be wrong. They should wait a few days until Father calmed down before talking. They couldn't really let the dogs bite them. What kind of image would it be if a father let the dogs bite his own daughters?

Tang Yuanyuan upstairs felt relieved and developed a much better impression of her father-in-law, who had a low profile. She used to think that her mother-in-law was the head of the household and her father-in-law didn't care about anything, but she was wrong. Her father-in-law was the real hidden boss.

As soon as Niu Dazhu unleashed his power, everyone fell silent. No one dared to utter a sound, and they all lowered their heads to eat. The only sound was the chopsticks hitting the bowls. Junjun and Zhuangzhuang looked hesitant, wanting to drink more cola but not daring to.

"Stop drinking. From now on, you're not allowed to drink any beverages, only water."

Ya Dan snatched the cola away, not letting her two nephews drink it. Jun Jun and Zhuang Zhuang dared not speak out, looking longingly at their mother. But Niu Da Sao and Niu Er Sao had just been scolded by Niu Da Zhu, so they dared not provoke Ya Dan again.

"What are you drinking for? Eat!" Sister-in-law Niu slapped Junjun on the back of the head with considerable force, making Junjun's fat jiggle several times. He pouted and started to wail in grievance.

Tie Dan complained, "Sister-in-law, why are you taking your anger out on the child? Junjun, stop crying. You can't drink any more beverages in the future, or your uncle won't buy you Transformers."

"Zhuangzhuang is the same. If he drinks a beverage, his Transformers will be gone, and so will all his other toys."

The two children were extremely conflicted. The drinks were incredibly delicious, and the toys were fun and would make them look good in front of the other children in the village. They both wanted the same things, but their uncle made them choose. Sigh.

Life is too hard.

In the end, the toy won out over the drink, and the two brothers obediently ate their meal.

Tie Dan looked around at the sumptuous dishes on the table, his brows furrowing even more. All of them were topped with bright red chili peppers, and Tang Yuanyuan couldn't eat a single bite. Ya Dan stood up and said, "I'll go and make some refreshing dishes for my sister-in-law."

"I'll go do it. I forgot today, but I'll remember next time." Tie Dan's mother got up awkwardly. She felt guilty. She used to despise her daughter-in-law for being picky about food, but now her daughter-in-law had become the person she used to hate. She felt really bad.

"From now on, you're not allowed to put chili peppers in your buns and pies. Just use whatever you like," Niu Dazhu said sternly, then looked down at the siblings, Roubao and Roubing, with a kind smile. "Tell Grandma what you want to eat, and Grandma will make it for you."

"Dumplings, shrimp filling, delicious."

The meat buns looked so cute, the shrimp dumplings were delicious, and the shrimp-filled shumai were amazing too—Grandpa's were so good!

"I want to eat meat." Meat Pie smiled憨厚ly, looking exactly like his father Tie Dan, only slightly more handsome, and with fairer skin.

"Grandma will make shrimp dumplings tomorrow, and your dad will go to town to buy shrimp and meat," Tie Dan's mother said with a smile. She loves her grandson and granddaughter just as much as her husband does, and she's willing to make anything the children want to eat, no matter how much trouble it is.
