Zhong Wanwan originally thought that it would be inconvenient to hold the chicken in her hands, so she asked Wei Maisui and the others to put the free-range chicken back in sacks, but Wei Maisui and the others refused outright!
Just kidding! Not being able to brag outside is frustrating enough, but not being able to brag at home too? What's the point of living like this?
And so, Wei Maisui and Zheng Nannan, with a chicken in their left hand and a chicken in their right, and Wei Youliang holding a chicken in his chest, the three of them marched home proudly!
Wei Maisui, feeling smug, wanted to whet her family's appetite before revealing the chicken's origin once they got impatient.
For this reason, Wei Maisui had already spoken to her second brother on the way, strictly forbidding him from saying it beforehand!
Her ideals were lofty, but reality was harsh. Her little ally, her nephew Wei Youliang, was simply a scoundrel!
As soon as they entered the room, before anyone else could say a word, Wei Youliang started yelling:
"Grandpa, Grandma, Mom, Dad, look! This is a free-range chicken that Captain Qian gave me. It's because I worked with Master Zhong repairing cars. Aren't I amazing?"
Damn it, if she didn't share the same ancestor as Wei Youliang, Wei Maisui would have wanted to curse his ancestors. There's no such despicable child; this brat stole all her lines!
Wei Youliang was secretly delighted, wanting to steal the credit from him. Whoever spoke up about this would be the one who would shine. Why should he listen to his aunt and wait for someone to ask?
No, he's got a mouth now, so he'll say everything in advance, that way his grandparents and parents will have to praise him first!
Sure enough, as soon as Wei Youliang finished speaking, Aunt Wei came over, inspecting the free-range chickens while praising Wei Youliang:
"Oh my, my grandson is so amazing! What other 9-year-old can earn enough to buy a free-range chicken? Grandma is so proud of you!"
Even the farm manager, Wei, rarely praised him, saying:
"My eldest grandson is more capable than your father!"
Brother Wei: Praise grain if you have grain, why are you dragging one down while putting down another!
Brother Wei is tongue-tied; he can only chuckle as he looks at his son, unable to utter words of praise!
Sister-in-law Fengying was happy, but said modestly:
"Your aunt brought back two, but you're not showing them off like this. You're not humble at all!"
Wei Maisui looked utterly dejected. Was she not trying to show off or flaunt her talents? Someone had beaten her to it!
What can she say now? Anything she says will just be parroting what others have already said!
Aunt Wei was even happier when she saw the two free-range chickens her daughter was carrying!
It's not about making the family happy to eat more meat, but about ensuring our daughter has a secure future!
With this skill, what will she have to worry about in the future? Even her husband's family is now very selective; if you don't have a skill, they won't even meet her standards!
Aunt Wei said very generously:
"We'll stew a chicken tomorrow night to celebrate with Mai Sui and my grandson!"
Upon hearing that stewed chicken was to be made, Wei Maisui's eyes lit up. She snuggled up to Aunt Wei and said in a coquettish tone:
"Mom, the smoked chicken we had at Aunt Qian's house was delicious! Tomorrow I'm going to ask my chef to make some braising spices so we can smoke one too. Well, one might not be enough for our whole family, but if we smoke three, everyone can have a good time!"
Aunt Wei chuckled. "Smoking three chickens and eating to your heart's content? You're really dreaming."
Is she trying to kill herself? She can't even cook one chicken, she wants to add two more to the pot too! She's really gone too far!
Aunt Wei didn't even want to glance at Wei Maisui. She snatched the free-range chicken from Wei Maisui's hand and went to the storeroom!
Wei Maisui scratched her head. What did she say? Why was her mother angry again? Is this a sign of premenopause?
Wei Youliang looked at his aunt and laughed. His aunt was really silly, completely silly.
