Wang Xingfa felt that he had lost all face, and said in a hoarse voice: "Xiao Tao, go back first. What happened today has nothing to do with you. I will also give you the money for the milk powder, just consider it as something I bought."
"Grandpa! That's our public school's money!" The second grandson's wife didn't expect that not only did she not get the milk powder, but she also had to pay for it. She felt very distressed.
"Second son's wife, are you just going to watch her talk back to the elders here? I'm not dead yet, and you have no say in this family!" Wang Xingfa pointed at his daughter-in-law who was standing aside without saying anything and scolded.
Seeing that the old man was gasping for breath due to anger, Gao Xiaotao hurried over to help him calm down.
"Grandpa Wang, are you okay?"
Two lines of turbid tears flowed from the corners of Wang Xingfa's eyes. He didn't expect that the person who cared about him the most was actually an outsider...
Since my wife passed away, I have raised several children with great difficulty, and this is the result I got...
"Xiao Tao, I'm fine. Wait, I'll get the money for you." Wang Xingfa said slowly.
Gao Xiaotao couldn't take his money, so she held his hand and said, "Grandpa Wang, this milk powder is for the child. You don't need to pay for it."
After that, Gao Xiaotao turned to Wang Xingfa's eldest grandson and his wife and said, "This milk powder is for your child. Why don't you come out and say a word? Are you just going to watch your grandfather fight for you?"
Don’t you even go out of your way to fight for food for your own child to survive?
What's the use of just crying?
The eldest grandson and his wife were a little at a loss when Gao Xiaotao suddenly mentioned them.
Wang Xingfa was disappointed when he saw his eldest grandson's evasive look. He knew that his eldest grandson didn't want to confront the people from the second branch.
"Xiao Tao, you should go first. I've made a fool of myself in our family today. I'll deliver the furniture to you in two days."
"Also, what Xiaotao said just now is right. She did pay for the furniture. She and Xiaoyu don't owe our family any favors! Whoever dares to say these things again can go away and live alone!" Wang Xingfa said the last two sentences to the whole family.
When the people in the second room heard about going out and living alone, they all fell silent.
I don't know how much private money the old man has saved by relying on his furniture-making skills.
If I dislike the old man now, won't his money just go to the people in other families?
Although no one said anything on the surface, the cracks in everyone's hearts already existed...
After making sure that Wang Xingfa was fine, Gao Xiaotao came back to cook unhappily.
"Xiao Yu, do you think Grandpa Wang's children and grandchildren are too much?" Gao Xiaotao complained while cooking.
The shovel and the iron pot collided with each other, making a loud bang, which showed that she used a lot of strength.
"Since his family members are ungrateful, you don't have to care about them next time. Just take care of Grandpa Wang." Feng Lingyu said with a frown.
It is said that raising children is a way to prepare for old age, but if all of them are ungrateful, it is better not to have children.
Without the burden of children and grandchildren, perhaps I can spend my old age in peace.
"I see that Grandpa Wang's hair has turned white, but they still talk back to him and make him angry. I feel indescribable pain."
Gao Xiaotao frowned and said in a daze.
She may not understand much about the big principles of life, but an old person who has devoted her whole life to her children should not be treated like this.
"Some people are just like that by nature, it's not worth getting angry at. Grandpa Wang has so many children and grandchildren, there must be a good one among them. If you feel worried, you and I can go and visit him more often." Feng Lingyu comforted.
Gao Xiaotao's bad mood came and went quickly, and she happily agreed immediately.
If anyone dares to be unfilial to Grandpa Wang again, she will put a sack in his hand and beat him up behind his back!
"It smells so good! Mingrui's cooking skills are so good! I heard that she has lost her memory, so she probably doesn't remember me... But it's good enough that she is safe and healthy!"
Gao Xiaotao steamed the sausages that Feng Lingyu brought back. When she smelled the familiar aroma, she felt a little depressed, but at the same time she was glad that she had nothing else to do.
"Don't worry, she's the same as before. When we go to visit relatives, we'll go back together and we'll get familiar with each other quickly."
Shen Huaiqing had a conflicted expression, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Feng Lingyu walked over and asked softly: "What's wrong? What do you want to say?"
"Sister Xiaoyu, my grandfather..." Shen Huaiqing raised his head and said in a low voice.
Since arriving in Qingshan Village, Shen Huaiqing has been following Feng Lingyu, but the person he wants to see most is his grandfather.
"Oh, so that's it. I thought you were hesitant about something. How could I forget Grandpa Shen? When it gets dark, I'll take you to see him." Feng Lingyu breathed a sigh of relief. She thought it was just a child throwing a tantrum, and she didn't know how to coax a child.
"It's my fault. I forgot to tell you and made you worry."
It's natural for Shen Huaiqing to miss his grandfather, which shows that this child values friendship!
Gao Xiaotao also smiled and said, "Don't worry, I made double portions of these dishes! They are all warm in the pot, and we can take them all over when it gets dark."
During the time that Feng Lingyu was away, Shen Xiuyi had always been taken care of by Gao Xiaotao.
Although Shen Xiuyi looks ragged now, the clothes he wears are comfortable and fit.
Gao Xiaotao would often send some nutritious food over.
So without Feng Lingyu asking, Gao Xiaotao made an extra dish herself.
"Thank you, Sister Xiaotao!" An embarrassed smile appeared on Chen Huaiqing's fair and tender face.
Gao Xiaotao felt itchy and pinched Shen Huaiqing's face, "You're welcome!"
Gao Xiaotao herself has a chubby face, but she still kneads Shen Huaiqing's face.
Feng Lingyu couldn't help laughing when seeing this scene.
----
Potatoes and pork ribs, radish and bone soup, and the braised pork and sausages that Feng Lingyu brought back, these few meat dishes were enough for the three of them.
In addition, Gao Xiaotao picked eggplants and lettuce from the vegetable garden and stir-fried two vegetarian dishes, so this meal can be said to be very sumptuous.
"Xiao Yu, Huai Qing, how about trying it?" Gao Xiaotao asked impatiently as soon as she sat down.
Feng Lingyu tasted a piece of pork ribs and surprisingly found that it tasted very good. "Xiao Tao, have you been secretly practicing your cooking skills in the past two months?"
In the past, Gao Xiaotao’s cooking was the same as mine, just at the level of home cooking, but now she can at least work as a chef in a restaurant.
"It's not really like practicing cooking secretly...Xiaoyu, I picked up a tattered book and wanted to throw it away, but it turned out to be a cookbook. The dishes I made following the methods in it are much more delicious than before." Gao Xiaotao said happily.
She was just waiting for Xiaoyu to come back and show her her cooking skills!
Although her cooking skills are not as good as Mingrui's, they are already very good.
"Sister Xiaotao, your cooking is delicious!"
Seeing Gao Xiaotao looking at him, Shen Huaiqing immediately expressed his opinion.
