"Oh, huh?"
Seeing that she was getting more and more excited as she talked, Ye Xiaozhen picked up the soup on the table and splashed it at her.
Li Mei screamed suddenly, jumping and slapping the soup off her body.
"What are you doing? Why are you splashing my soup while I am enjoying my meal? Are you crazy?"
"Oh, I'm crazy." Ye Xiaozhen sneered, "Didn't you say that if you eat something made by a fool, you will become a fool? If I cook for you, do you dare to eat it?"
"You're such a slut, you're such a fool, marrying into our family is a move above your station, you know that? Humph, what's so great about having triplets? Be careful that all the babies you give birth to are stupid."
Xie Linan, who heard the noise next door, rushed over immediately and protected Ye Xiaozhen tightly.
"Li Mei, what did you say? Say it again, damn it."
The tall and strong Xie Linan looked hard to scare, but Li Mei immediately wilted when he saw him.
But she also said: "You should take care of your crazy wife. I told her about my experience of pregnancy and she actually splashed me with soup. Look at me, is this something that ordinary people can see?"
There were still vegetable leaves from the soup on her body, it was definitely splashed on her.
Xie Linan held Ye Xiaozhen's hand and said, "There are so many people here, why did she splash you instead of others? I guess you said something you shouldn't have said and irritated her."
"How did I irritate her? I was just telling her about my experience of being pregnant."
She stared at Ye Xiaozhen and shouted, "Tell me, how did I irritate you?"
Ye Xiaozhen said, "You are provoking me. You said I shouldn't rest and should cook for the family. You also scolded me for being lazy and said that all the babies I gave birth to are stupid. How dare you say you didn't provoke me?"
The men's table came over one after another. It was embarrassing for everyone to spend the New Year like this.
Lin Xinghua was so angry that he stamped his feet. "Li Mei, how can you say such a thing? Do you know how hard it is for Xiao Zhen to raise three children? And you let her cook. If she wants to cook, do you have the face to eat?"
“Dad, I…”
"Alright, I don't want to listen to your excuses. Xiaozhen's illness is not completely cured. If she is stimulated, she will get sick again. If you don't want to make trouble, leave quickly."
"Ah? Let's go? Where are we going for the New Year?"
"Go back to where you came from. I don't care where you go. New Year? What kind of New Year are you celebrating? Go away, go away. Don't come back in the future. I will just pretend that I don't have any children like you two."
Xie Zhiguo: "Dad, I didn't say anything, did I?"
Zhang Hui also hurriedly said: "Dad, I didn't say anything bad about Xiaozhen."
Xie Linsen, "Grandpa, I came back to see you. You can't include us in the quarrel between Aunt San and Sister-in-law!"
Lin Xinghua didn't want to talk anymore. He frowned, put his hands behind his back and walked out.
Xie Linan didn't like his uncle and aunt in the first place, otherwise he wouldn't let them into the house for his grandfather's sake.
Now that grandpa had spoken, he handed Ye Xiaozhen over to Xie Li's care and personally sent them out.
"Grandpa asked you to leave, did you hear me? Go away."
"What are you doing? Let go, I'm your uncle."
"I'm the one who's afraid of my Third Uncle." Xie Zhili was dragged out by Xie Linan.
He didn't use any restraint in his attack and dragged Xie Zhili so roughly that he cried out in pain.
He rubbed his arm, so angry that he went outside and cursed non-stop.
When Li Mei saw Xie Zhili being dragged out, Xie Linan walked towards her again.
Not daring to force him to stay, he dragged his two sons with him and followed him out, cursing at the door.
"Well, all of you are going to gang up on us, right?"
"Since you no longer recognize me as your son, then I will sever the relationship with you."
"Don't let us take care of you in your old age, and don't expect to see your grandchildren. Just live with them for the rest of your life."
"Bah, what the hell, never come back again."
"Walk."
The family left.
Xie was reluctant, staring at the door and looking into the room.
Li Mei pulled him away, "What are you looking at? I don't even care about you, my grandson. Why are you still looking at me? Let's go."
"Mom, why are you always picking on your sister-in-law? She didn't offend you."
"You are stupid. Your brother made a lot of money, but that stupid girl got all of it. What does a stupid girl have to rely on?"
"My sister-in-law is not stupid."
"You are not stupid now, but you will be stupid sooner or later."
Xie Zhili's family was driven away, and the rest of the people kept silent, and the second half of the meal was spent in silence.
Li Mei was killed as an example to others, and Zhang Hui was smart enough not to say anything unpleasant that would bring bad luck upon herself.
After dinner, I helped Xie Li wash the dishes and clean the kitchen.
I also talked to Xie Li about Xie Linsen's marriage.
"The girl's parents are both salaried workers, and both have city hukou. Marrying her will bring honor to our family. Xiaoli, the date has been set, remember to come to the wedding."
Xie Li nodded and said, "Okay, let's talk about it after we decide."
Humph, let’s talk about it when the time comes. Who knows what might be delaying it.
"Yeah." Zhang Hui responded with a smile.
The girl's family is well off. Not only are her parents workers, but almost all of their relatives are workers, and they are all city dwellers.
The man's side cannot be bad either, he needs to bring in some prominent relatives to help him look good.
For example, marrying a niece who is a student, or a nephew who makes a lot of money, so as to avoid being looked down upon by the girl.
Xie Li went back into the room to clean up the dishes that Zhang Jianhua had eaten.
Zhang Jianhua asked, "Why are your uncle and aunt like this?"
Xie Li said calmly: "That's how they are. If they weren't like this, we wouldn't have had such a hard time back then."
"I remember you said before that your father paid for your uncle's education, and your father didn't pay for his marriage."
"Oh, he was supported by my father, but he is an ungrateful person. I was just a few points away from high school. If they knew how to repay their kindness and gave me more money, I could also go to high school and take the college entrance examination. I gave up. The most unfortunate thing is my younger brother. You know what his grades were like back then. Otherwise, for you..."
Having said this, she stopped talking and both of them fell silent.
After a long time, Zhang Jianhua said, "I'm sorry for him, Xiaoli, I will treat you well too."
Xie Li sneered in her heart but didn't show it on her face.
She didn't mind acting with him if it would make him feel guilty and earn her some extra money.
"Let's not talk about the past. Just focus on this family."
Humph, she just keeps silent while earning money for this family.
If she wants to let her know that she is not honest, she will kill them and tear their faces apart sooner or later.
Let's get rid of him together.
"By the way, why did your third aunt call Xiaozhen stupid?"
"Oh, she was abused by her stepmother before, she doesn't like to talk, and everyone in her family thinks she is stupid."
Zhang Jianhua breathed a sigh of relief. "It turns out she doesn't like to talk. I thought she was really stupid. Your third aunt is right. Stupidity is hereditary. If she is really stupid, maybe the baby she gives birth to will have problems."
Xie Li frowned and asked, "What are you talking about?"
