In order to prevent Tao Chunhua from stealing the food, Old Lady Huang watched her chop the meat into pieces.
After the meat was cooked, Huang Xiaoman came running over when he smelled the aroma.
"Mom, I want to eat meat."
Huang Erniu was also drooling over the food, "I want to try it too. There's so much meat anyway, I won't even notice if a few pieces are missing."
Tao Chunhua sneered, "You don't know her. When I was eating meat just now, she was standing next to me. I'm afraid she was counting the pieces."
Huang Erniu was immediately depressed when he heard this, "Then... I want to eat..."
Tao Chunhua thought about it and smiled happily, "I have a way."
Soon, the three of them had their mouths full of oil.
When the dish was served, Mrs. Huang took a look and asked, "Why is there so little meat?"
"Mom, this meat is fat. After being simmered in the pot for a while, all the oil has come out and it's not noticeable anymore."
Old Lady Huang used her chopsticks to pick at the meat a few times, then sneered and said, "Well, you three don't have to eat this bowl of meat."
Huang Xiaoman was unhappy when he heard this. He pouted and said, "No, I want to eat more!"
Old Mrs. Huang picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it in Huang Jingjing's bowl, then picked up another piece of meat and put it in Chen Jingui's bowl.
This made Huang Xiaoman so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
"Grandma, I'm your eldest grandson. You had delicious food before, but you gave it all to me!"
Old Mrs. Huang gave him a cold look and said, "I can give it to you, but tell me, have you eaten just now?"
Huang Xiaoman's heart and eyes were filled with the bowl of meat that was dwindling away. He hurriedly said, "We've eaten it. My parents and I have eaten it, but I want more."
Tao Chunhua wanted to cover his mouth, but it was too late.
Old Mrs. Huang looked at Tao Chunhua and said, "You are smart. You were afraid that I would count them, so you cut the roasted meat in half. This way, there are still a lot of pieces, but the portion is reduced by half."
Tao Chunhua's eyes were a little evasive, but she still said stubbornly, "Mom, we only ate a little bit."
Old Mrs. Huang didn't say much, she just picked up a few pieces of meat for Huang Xiaoman and said, "Go and eat."
Huang Xiaoman immediately started to devour the food, and then wanted to eat more, but was stopped by Old Lady Huang.
"I said I would give you meat, and I have already given it to you. You have already eaten a lot. If you ask for more, you are just being greedy. You will never have meat to eat again."
Huang Xiaoman glanced at Tao Chunhua, who grabbed his ear and said, "I told you it was delicious, I told you to be greedy!"
Old Mrs. Huang was unhappy when she heard this. Although she hated Huang Xiaoman, she was very upset by Tao Chunhua's behavior.
She slammed her chopsticks on the table and said, "Tao Chunhua, what are you trying to do? You are greedy and want to eat delicious food, aren't you talking about it yourself?"
Tao Chunhua was still a little scared of Old Lady Huang. "Mom, am I not teaching the child a lesson?"
"Is that how you teach? What have you done to our good child?"
Old Lady Huang said, rolling her eyes at Huang Erniu, "And you, the father! You don't act like a father at all!"
Huang Erniu looked aggrieved, "Mom, what does this have to do with me?"
"Of course it's your business!"
Old Mrs. Huang scolded the couple so much that they ran away with their bowls in hand.
The meal they eat now is white rice and sorghum, but it is much better than other families who eat bran or drink porridge that is so thick that you can see your reflection in it for three meals a day.
At this time, Huang Xiaojuan came over eagerly with a small bowl of rice.
She didn't say anything, just picked up a few vegetables and left.
Chen Jingui called her, "Xiaojuan, eat some meat."
Huang Xiaojuan responded and looked at Old Lady Huang again. Old Lady Huang saw through her little trick at once.
"You didn't eat it just now, so you have your share!"
