Chapter 4: Extravagant (2/2)

One day he would force his third sister to death and drive away Ma Xiufen, which was what Zhao Dazhu dreamed of.

"I think this is pretty good. I can't stand the days of praising my sister-in-law anymore," Zhao Sanzhu muttered softly.

Not only did the family empty their savings for Ma, but they also gossiped about them all the time. When it came to food, any delicious food had to be given to her first, and only after she had eaten her fill could she have the other four brothers.

Life these days is indeed worse than before I got married.

"Everyone should go away."

Zhao Erzhu called out to the neighbors and dispersed them, and the family of eight finally entered the house. Only as soon as the door was closed did Zhao Taohua feel the oppression in this adobe house.

There was a rotten table, and the two rooms on the left and right were large bunk beds covered with straw mats. Unless it was winter, there was not even a quilt to cover oneself with.

Zhao Dazhu and Ma lived in the ear room.

It was pitch black and I couldn't see anything without turning on the light.

Zhao Taohua felt that her impression of the word "poor" had deepened.

"Dazhu, you said you didn't stop it, ah..." Old Mrs. Zhao was still complaining, but she felt more helpless.

Zhao Dazhu sat silently by the side the moment he entered the room. Zhao Erzhu was afraid that Zhao Taohua would feel embarrassed, so he smiled and said, "Third sister, don't take it personally. I caught a big fish from the river this morning, and I'm going to cook it for you right now. You can have fish tonight."

When the topic of eating fish was brought up, everyone's eyes lit up.

Zhao Taohua was still thinking that in ancient times, the mountains and rivers were beautiful and the resources were good, and at least there was fish to eat. However, she didn't expect that Zhao Erzhu would start swearing as soon as he came out.

"Damn it, my sister-in-law took the fish away."

So, there was no fish to eat.

The light in everyone's eyes quickly dimmed.

"Hua'er, don't blame your sister-in-law for making a fuss. Our family... is indeed poor," said Old Mrs. Zhao with a distressed look on her face.

Zhao Taohua nodded: "Mom, I understand."

The Zhao family was a hardworking family. They originally had a lot of fertile land and were considered a middle-class family in the village. But a few months ago, there was an earthquake and a landslide, and as luck would have it, the fields of the Zhao family were cracked and covered.

The land that the four brothers originally had enough to farm was suddenly reduced by more than half. How can they make a living?

Ruo'er relied on the Zhao brothers' great strength to do hard labor everywhere to earn some hard-earned money to support his life. Then he went hunting in the mountains and fishing in the rivers.

Life is very tight.

"Don't worry, mother. I will do something. Our family will definitely get better and better in the future," Zhao Taohua comforted.

"This child is talking nonsense again. What on earth did these bastards, that heartless Zhou Muzhi, do to you?" Old Mrs. Zhao said with heartache and hatred.

Zhao Taohua was helpless. She couldn't talk about the system's details casually, but seeing that the Zhao family was in such a difficult situation, the best plan was to get five taels of silver as soon as possible and upgrade the system.

Able to take out a small amount of food from the space.

Otherwise, the Zhao family would be so poor that they could not even afford to eat, but their refrigerator would be full of meat.

"It's time to eat."

Zhao Sanzhu was cooking, but since he could cook by himself, the meal must be simple. There were eight neatly arranged bowls of brown rice porridge, so thin that you could see your reflection in it, with some vegetable leaves floating in it, which looked very unappetizing.

Zhao Taohua, although she suffered hardships in the early days of her business, the most she suffered was just steamed buns and mineral water. She had never seen...

"Hua'er, please be patient. We don't eat this every meal at home," said Old Mrs. Zhao.

Zhao Taohua was stunned: "Did I come here so suddenly today?"

Zhao Sizhu said, "No, we don't eat such thick brown rice porridge today. It became thicker after Third Sister came back. Don't worry, we didn't indulge in such a meal today. We won't do that again in the future."

Zhao Taohua: "..." Extravagant! You call this extravagant?
