Chapter 17: Troublemaker
The door of the old house was wide open, and the aroma of meat could be smelled from far away.
Some people around here are too embarrassed to come in even though they are greedy after smelling the delicious food.
However, those who are more thoughtful will let their children go to the door with bowls to see if they can get a piece of meat.
So now there are a few more children in and outside the yard, and the chattering is even more lively.
Zhao Dani was drooling over the aroma of meat as she walked along.
While cursing Zhao Sihai for being ignorant in his heart, he quickened his pace.
The lame leg did not affect her speed. Even Lin Qianqian could hardly catch up with her.
At the gate of the courtyard, I saw two children squatting on the stone block beside the gate, eating with laughter.
My eyes widened when I saw the big piece of stew in their bowl.
She heard the shouting and noise in the house, and her stomach growled even louder.
Anger immediately rose to his heart, and he quickly rushed over, bent down and snatched the bowl from the child's hand.
He shoveled the meat and rice into his mouth.
The children didn't react.
By the time he reacted, the empty bowl had been stuffed into his hands.
Zhao Dani wiped her mouth and was about to grab the bowl of another child.
"You idiot, you think you can eat the food in my house? Even starving ghosts won't eat as much as you do. You are a jerk who was born by a mother but not raised by her."
The other child reacted quickly and immediately ran away with his bowl of rice.
The people in the courtyard were eating when they heard a curse.
What followed was a deafening cry.
Several people were surprised and hurried out to see what was going on.
Zhao Sihai asked them to continue eating while he went to watch.
As soon as I walked out of the courtyard gate, I saw Zhao Dani chasing a child, scolding and beating him.
At first I didn't recognize him and thought it was the child's mother.
He frowned and shouted, "What are you doing?"
Hearing Zhao Sihai's voice, Zhao Dani no longer cared about chasing the child.
As soon as he turned around, he changed his expression.
"Fourth brother, you are here. I rushed here as soon as I heard the news. That's great."
Zhao Dani is the kind of person who can't even get ahead at home, so she only dares to speak harshly behind people's backs or bully children.
When Zhao Sihai was young, she bullied him and used him as a target for her anger.
But when he grew up and became strong, I didn't dare to do that anymore, and I was even a little afraid of him.
Zhao Sihai recognized the other person now and his brows furrowed even more tightly.
"Big sister? Why are you here?"
Zhao Dani married a man from the next village when he was sixteen.
At that time, he happened to be in the army and only came once or twice a year, so it was rare to see him.
He later heard from the Red Army that Zhao Dani had her legs broken because she always stole food from her mother-in-law's family and went to the Zhao family.
He lowered his eyes to look at her right leg.
At this time, Zhao Dani had a face full of complaints.
"Look at what you are saying. I am your eldest sister. My brother finally came here. How can I not come and take a look?"
As he spoke, he looked towards the yard, smacking his lips curiously.
"What are you doing here? Mom said you're at home. This is your bedroom. It smells so good. Are you ready to eat?"
Zhao Sihai had no idea what she was thinking when he saw her like this.
He didn't say anything, just said "hmm" in a lukewarm manner.
