Su Xia saw Liu Chunxia, ​​whom she hadn't seen for many days, on the tenth day of the month.

"Sister-in-law..."

"Sister-in-law, which one do you need me to do?" Su Xia asked hurriedly. She was late, and when she arrived, both women had already started working.

Looking at her sister-in-law, who always appeared glamorous and radiant, Liu Chunxia felt a dark glint in her eyes.

"Sister-in-law, how about I leave the main course to you today?" Xia Laidi, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand Liu Chunxia's pretentious attitude.

Yes—it's all an act. A person may seem nice on the surface, but they do despicable things behind the scenes.

Like her—she was like this before, and she is still like this now. If she doesn't like her daughter, she just doesn't like her. She pretends to be different from boys and girls.

Su Xia glanced at the two pounds of meat, the soaked green beans, and the prepared sauerkraut...

There were cabbages, radishes, and a chicken. The elderly couple specifically instructed that no one else should bring any meat; they would prepare everything themselves.

Su Xia looked around and saw two pieces of meat, weighing about 1 jin (5 catties), which was a total of 6 jin (3 catties).

Pickled cabbage, cabbage, potatoes, radishes, pickled wood ear mushrooms, mushrooms, green beans...

Su Xia glanced at Xia Lai Di, who was looking forward to the meeting, and Liu Chunxia, ​​who remained silent.

"Okay, I'll have the main course, you guys can finish the rest!"

Xia Laidi laughed, and as she turned around, she gave Liu Chunxia a disdainful look.

"Sister-in-law, the stewed chicken is yours. I still need to steam some buns!"

Liu Chunxia paused, then said, "Understood!"

snort....

Su Xia... No wonder Liu Chunxia insisted on marrying her into a good family; now I know the reason.

Xia Laidi is a person who never stops chatting and gossiping.

"Mom, we're here to help!" Niu Niu and Wu Ya rushed in, interrupting the otherwise quiet kitchen.

"Mother, what do you need?" Wu Ya also came closer to Xia Lai Di.

"Peel the potatoes, slice the cabbage..." Xia Laidi didn't hold back.

Wu Ya walked over, picked up the vegetable, and started peeling potatoes.

Su Xia glanced at it, and not only was her hand speed fast, but she also managed to grab a whole potato peel along with it.

"Mom, what am I doing?" Niu Niu reminded Su Xia.

"Oh...you just watch me!"

Niu Niu obediently started stuffing the meat, while Su Xia began filling it with evenly sliced ​​meat. Then they heated the pan and added cold oil, and sizzled...

The sound of slices of meat hitting the hot pan stimulated the taste buds of the people in the kitchen.

"See? Your aunt's cooking is delicious!" Xia Laidi swallowed hard, spitting out a mouthful of saliva.

Wu Ya felt the same way, but she couldn't help but say, "Mom, it's because you're willing to use oil when you cook, and you don't wait for the pan to heat up before you start stir-frying. It's bound to taste good!"

......

Upon hearing this, Su Xia Niu Niu...

With wide eyes, Liu Chunxia exclaimed, "Wu Ya, you're so bold!" She lowered her head and continued working on her tasks.

Xia Laidi wasn't angry; she told her to be like her sister-in-law, letting the oil flow freely...

Besides, as long as we don't starve, why worry about so much?

Liu Ya was playing with Xiao Bao and Xiao Niu Niu in the yard. They were wearing newly made clothes, a beige top and a black bottom.

Niu Niu gave Liu Ya cotton shoes, a hat, a scarf, and gloves as a gift. Liu Ya was overjoyed. It was the happiest time she had ever been since she was old enough to understand things.

"Sister Liuya, my ball is missing?" Xiaobao ran over, his voice trembling.

Liu Ya was taken aback, but quickly comforted him, "Don't cry, Xiao Bao, I'll go find it for you!"

"Mmm..." Xiao Bao nodded, thinking to himself, "Yes, I'll cry when I can't find it."

Sixth Sister.....

Da Bao and Gou Dan had already run outside to play, with Gou Wa following behind them.

"Brother Gou Dan, Brother Da Bao...wait for me!"

"Doggy, what are you doing here?" Erbao said to Doggy in an annoyed tone.

The dog, dressed in a newly made outfit, stood frozen in place.

"Brother Erbao... I want to play with you guys?"

"Hmph... I'm not going to play with people from Huaihua who say that older sister is from Huaihua!" After saying that, she left.

Gouwa stood still, looking at Dabao and Gou Dan.

The two brothers exchanged a glance, both feeling helpless...

"Brother Gou Dan, Brother Da Bao, my dad said he'll send me to school, and I promise I won't say anything bad about Sister Liu Ya again..."

Seeing that his two older brothers were not speaking, Gouwa was afraid of being abandoned, so he hurriedly explained.

Why....

After a long time, Gou Dan couldn't bear it, because they had always played together since they were little, and it would be a little strange not to be together all of a sudden.

"Doggy, I'll let it go this time, but you absolutely can't do this again. Look at my mother, she doesn't like my older sisters either, and she's never cared about them..."

Da Bao... his lips twitched. Gou Dan, Gou Dan... you really know how to praise your mother!

"Look at Auntie, she seems so good to Liuya, but who would have thought she wouldn't prepare anything for her, and even wants to send Liuya's things to your maternal grandmother's house..."

Stains.....

Dog Egg still can't believe it when he thinks about it now. He never hits or scolds Auntie Liu Ya...

Unlike his mother, who constantly beat and scolded Wu Ya since she was little, and made her do chores every day...

His sister's clothes and pants were all leftovers from his older sister and second older sister.

Gouwa had some doubts in his mind, after all, he was over 7 years old, but the thought of his father's fist made his bottom start to hurt...

Dad said, "Gege is his own sister, not some girl..."

"But Sister Ge is a girl...!"

Da Bao sighed. Gouwa is still too young. Hopefully, he'll understand these principles when he's older.

Mr. and Mrs. Chen rested, waiting for their lunch.

"Brother, what did Da Ya say on the phone?" Chen Jiandang had been looking forward to Da Ya coming back, but she hadn't arrived yet, so he knew she wouldn't be coming.

Chen Jianguo, without showing any impatience, repeated himself again, "After the whole family went to the army, the child's grandparents were especially happy. After staying for a few days, they couldn't bear to part with the child!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jiandang felt uneasy, while Chen Jianjun and Chen Jianguo were at a loss for words.

It was Chen's father who said, "Don't be ridiculous! Grandpa and Grandma love their grandchildren, which means they love Daya too. We're overjoyed!"

Chen's mother chimed in, "That's right! Besides, didn't Da Ya say she'd bring the child back when she arrived, and leave before going to work?"

Chen Jiandang nodded, understanding that this was a sign of happiness; his parents-in-law loved their grandchildren, so they were definitely pleased with Daya.

"Mom and Dad, I understand. It's just that you've missed your child so much!"

Mr. and Mrs. Chen sighed... They used to spend every day in the yard, never imagining they would leave even for a day.

"Alright, the kids are all living their own lives now, which is a blessing for us!" Chen Jianguo said, which was also a way of comforting his two younger brothers.

After recovering from their shock, Chen Jiandang and Chen Jianjun began to feel proud. Now, when they went out into the village, everyone praised their prowess.

"Big brother, do you know what?" Chen Jianjun started to show off.

Chen Jianguo glared at him, wishing he could crack open his blockhead. "What do you know?"

"Hehe... Er Ya sent me a military uniform!" Chen Jianjun rubbed his hands together, saying it before his older brother could explode.

"Gam... I thought it was something else, but I sent it too, okay!" Chen Jiandang said disdainfully.

"Second brother, you don't know this, do you? Er Ya's military uniform is men's clothing, only I can wear it!" Chen Jianjun raised his head high, wishing he could put it on right now and show it off to everyone.

Chen Jiandang bit her, because the girl she was discarding was her own creation, and only the fifth girl could wear it.

"Hmph—I'll have Geya send it over later too!" That was the last thing Chen Jiandang said.

Chen Jianjun, beaming with pride, went to show off to his older brother, "Big brother, hehe... how about you have your niece get you a set?"

Chen Jianguo.....
