After listening to Huang Niu’s story, everyone felt sorry for Old Mrs. Huang.
But Old Lady Huang smiled and said, "Of course I know that this ginseng is worth dozens of taels of silver, but my Jingjing was so badly injured and I don't have the money to buy it. I just happened to dig it up, can't I use it to heal her?"
Huang Niu stamped his feet and said, "Mother, she is just a money-losing girl. If she dies, she dies. You invested so much money in her, and you don't know how much betrothal gifts you can get!"
"Then you deserve to be sold to an unfilial son like you to spend your money happily? What a fool, you married a wife and forgot your mother. I raised you in vain!"
When Tao Chunhua realized that the matter had been implicated, she was worried that if it got out of hand, it would damage her reputation.
What's more, this big pot of chicken soup has to go into the stomach of your family, right?
She quickly pulled Huang Niu back and said, "Boss, the soup is already cooked. What's the point of you still talking about this?"
As she spoke, she tugged at his sleeve, signaling him to stop talking.
At this time, Mrs. Huang deliberately took out a large bowl in front of everyone and said, "In order to avoid misunderstanding, I will serve Jingjing, who was given to me last night, in front of everyone."
A large bowl was immediately filled with two chicken legs and a lot of meat.
The ginseng was also placed in the bowl.
"Old man, take this bowl to my room and give it to Jingjing."
Then she filled another large bowl and put two chicken wings and some meat in it.
"Old man, you are pregnant, this bowl is for you."
Seeing that there were only some bones without meat left in the pot, Tao Chunhua became anxious.
"Mom, if you give us so little, what are we going to eat?"
Old Mrs. Huang rolled her eyes at her. "There's so much left in the pot, can't you eat it? You're still picking on such a small pot of ginseng and chicken soup? It seems like you haven't had enough of hard times!"
As she spoke, she filled a bowl with the soup from the pot and took a sip.
Drink it! Really drink it!
Well, she is old, and it is time for her to have some supplements.
Seeing that the chicken soup in the pot was almost gone, Tao Chunhua didn't care about anything else and quickly scooped up the remaining half bowl. Just as she was about to drink it, it was snatched away by Huang Niu.
Huang Niu was quick and drank up all the food in one gulp, making Tao Chunhua so angry that she started crying and grumbling.
Old Mrs. Huang didn't care about them and ate leisurely with her bowl.
After a while, Huang Xiaojuan and Huang Xiaoman came in hurriedly.
Just now, when Tao Chunhua saw that the ginseng was put into the pot, she sent Huang Xiaojuan to find Huang Xiaoman.
Tell him to come and eat the chicken leg quickly.
Now when the two of them arrived, they found that there was no soup left in the pot.
"Mom, where's the chicken?"
Huang Xiaojuan asked. She looked at Tao Chunhua with tears on her face and the yellow ox licking the oil bowl, and immediately had a bad feeling in her heart.
Huang Xiaoman was so anxious that he was like a little monkey, jumping up and down and rolling on the ground.
Tao Chunhua was very angry. She reached out and picked up a firewood stick and hit Huang Xiaojuan and Huang Xiaoman with it.
"Eat, eat, eat! Just eat! You two are such disgusting things, as lowly as dogs!
"If you want to eat so much, you should just find a rope and hang yourself around your neck, then you'll be reborn as an immortal!
"There's no place for three of us in a family like ours. Let's go beg for food!"
While cursing, Tao Chunhua beat the two children with a stick until they screamed and groaned.
The neighbors who were watching the fight nearby all shouted at her to stop.
At this time, the door opened and Chen Jingui came out of the room, holding her own bowl of chicken soup in her hand.
"Sister-in-law, please don't hit them. I gave the food I didn't have to the children."
When Huang Xiaoman saw it, he rushed over to grab it, and Huang Xiaojuan was not willing to be left behind.
Old Mrs. Huang took a stick and stood in front of Chen Jingui to protect her.
"You two bastards still want to drink chicken soup? Don't even think about it while I'm here!"
In her previous life, these two unfilial grandchildren were very powerful. They beat and kicked her without showing any affection between grandparents and grandchildren.
Huang Xiaoman saw that the food was right in front of him but he couldn't get it. He was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks and almost rolled on the ground again.
Old Mrs. Huang said, "Old family, go inside. This chicken soup is for you and your mother. No one else can take it away!"
"Mom, I..."
"You don't listen to me now?"
Chen Jingui had no choice but to turn around and walk into the house.
Tao Chunhua took a look and thought, is the chicken soup about to fall away again?
"Chen Jingui, stop pretending to be such a bad person. Do you think I don't know your little thoughts?
"You want to be a whore and a saint at the same time, don't you? I'm telling you, I won't fall for that!
"Don't think that just by walking around like this you can make everyone think you are virtuous. Bah! Who the hell do you think you are!"
Tao Chunhua's words made Chen Jingui feel very uncomfortable. When she turned around, her eyes were full of tears.
"Sister-in-law, I didn't..."
Old Mrs. Huang said coldly: "Old man, I know your heart and you are a kind person, but you have to remember that some people are not worthy of your love!"
Chen Jingui nodded, wiped her tears, and walked into the house.
Old Mrs. Huang sneered and said, "My dear, let's talk it out in front of all the neighbors in the village today!"
Her voice was so powerful that it not only stunned the Huang Niu couple, but even the crying Huang Xiaoman dared not say a word.
The yellow cow wiped his nose with his sleeve and came over with a depressed look on his face.
"Mom, just say whatever you want to say."
Tao Chunhua wiped the tears from her face and turned her head away stubbornly.
Old Mrs. Huang's eyes were stern and her tone was indifferent: "You all think that I shouldn't give all the chicken to your sister-in-law and Jingjing, but have you ever thought about how much injustice they have suffered?"
As she spoke, her eyes swept over them and continued, "The eldest brother works in the mine, it's so dangerous, and every month he gives all the hard-earned money to his family. Your eldest sister-in-law is pregnant, and she cooks and washes for you every day. And Jingjing, I was confused before, and sold her to someone as a child bride for ten taels of silver! I've done a little bit to them now, and you have a problem with it?"
Huang Niu and his wife listened but still said nothing, so Mrs. Huang decided to use her ultimate move.
