Cheng Xiao Kui's mind was filled with the words her grandmother had said to her, that she had caused Chun Kui's death.
Who is Chun Kui?
Her mother only gave birth to the two sisters and a brother. Her name was Xiao Kui, her sister's name was Qiu Kui, and her brother's name was Dong Kui.
They were named according to the season of their birth.
Logically speaking, she was born in the summer, so her name should be Xia Kui (夏葵).
They don't have a child named Chun Kui in their family!
Could it be that Grandma is getting senile and scolded someone wrongly?
Cheng Qiuqiu pedaled the tricycle so hard that sparks flew. When she got home, she heard her neighbors chattering about what had just happened.
She jumped off the tricycle and ran into the yard, grabbing her sister's hand and saying, "Sis, what did you say? You're going to fight your way to Grandma's house? You really want to fight there? Auntie won't let you get away with this!"
Cheng Xiao Kui's thoughts were pulled back by her sister's voice. She said, "If we hide, she'll just attack us. I might as well attack her! If we beat her so badly she runs away with her tail between her legs, she won't have time to bother us."
Besides, that house originally belonged to my parents, so why should they take it over?
My second aunt clearly owns her own house, but she and my grandmother are crammed into one room just so her son can occupy ours. They're so wicked!
Cheng Xiao Kui got angrier and angrier as she spoke, saying that houses were worthless in this era and were all allocated by work units.
Even if it's not worth much, housing isn't exactly a luxury these days.
Just because her younger brother is sick and doesn't look like he'll live much longer. Just because they are two sisters.
Grandma called her second aunt over to seize her house, fearing that the two sisters would inherit it.
She was young then, her father had just passed away, and her mother was not strong enough to scold or beat her. So, the main house was taken over by someone else, and her whole family was squeezed into the small kitchen!
Cheng Qiuqiu pouted and said, "That's true. That house clearly belongs to our family, but Grandma said that we'll all get married sooner or later, and that house can't fall into the hands of someone with a different surname!"
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "Why can't we inherit the house if we get married? Aren't daughters children too?! Can we not be filial to our parents?!"
The vicious idea of favoring sons over daughters is outrageous! Daughters are children too, and they should respect their parents just as much as they should, and they can inherit property just as much as they should!
Besides, why was she so certain her brother would die? If he recovered, shouldn't this house be used to help him get married?
Cheng Qiu Kui said, "That's true, but Grandma... and Second Aunt, who can beat him?"
During the fight, she would pat her belly and say that she was proud of herself for giving the Cheng family a healthy boy, and therefore she should be able to do whatever she wanted in the Cheng family, and the whole Cheng family should dote on her!
Cheng Xiao Kui spat on the ground and said, "I don't care about worshipping her. We're not short of ancestors! What is she anyway?!"
Song Wenhui wiped away her tears, feeling completely helpless. She was afraid that her mother-in-law would come to bother her every day!
Today, she and her in-laws overturned the large basin of potatoes they had just washed and threw it on the ground!
Lin Qiuru picked up all the potatoes and washed them in a large basin.
Luckily it's just potatoes, so they can be washed clean. It's just a pity about all that potato starch and sweet potato starch; once it's spilled, it can't be retrieved.
She said to Song Wenhui, "In-law! Stop crying. We've already chased them away, haven't we? What's there to cry about? Let's roll up our sleeves and get to work! Make money!"
As long as we have money in our hands, we won't panic, and we won't be afraid of being bullied! We'll just stand up for ourselves and fight back. We can't back down when it comes to doing things!
Cheng Xiaokui said, "Mom, listen to what my mother-in-law said, it's so true. She bullies us, so we fight back. We can't back down when it comes to doing things! We all only have one life, and I don't believe she's more fearless than me!"
She sneered inwardly. She was no kind heroine; she was a vicious supporting character who had transmigrated into the body of a villain. If she were to claim to be the most vicious, no one would dare to say they were number one!
She showed her limited kindness only to her own family; she simply didn't have the means to play the saint!
Cheng Qiuqiu nodded and said, "That's right! If anyone dares to bully us, we'll fight back. Mom, you rest, my sister and I will do the work!"
We bought a lot of chicken carcasses, chicken feet, and chicken necks today. We need to cook them quickly; my sister says the longer they soak in the broth, the better they taste.
The two sisters, Cheng Xiao Kui and Cheng Qiu Kui, carried everything from the tricycle into the yard.
Everything needs to be washed and cleaned, especially food products, so that people will be more willing to buy them.
At this time, the yard was already filled with the delicious aroma of bread!
Lin Qiuru had already baked the bread. These breads contained no seasonings, just plain flour, and were intended solely for making breadcrumbs.
However, even the aroma of wheat is enough to tempt one's appetite.
Many neighbors peeked over and asked, "What delicious food have you made? Are you selling it?"
Cheng Xiao Kui explained to everyone that what she was baking was breadcrumbs, the kind used for frying chicken frames, not the kind of bread sold in stores.
But after answering everyone's questions, she suddenly had another idea: what if she sold bread? Could she make money that way?
However, after the idea flashed through her mind for a moment, she dismissed it.
The key issue is that without butter or cream, the bread doesn't taste good!
To make bread, you need at least these two things.
She quickly and efficiently cleaned the chicken carcass, neck, and feet.
While the chicken necks and feet were stewing in the big pot, Lin Qiuru boiled the eggs, and the whole family sat in the yard peeling the eggs together.
Cheng Xiao Kui handed the two eggs she had peeled out to Xiao Long Bao and Xiao Long Bao.
Both children are malnourished and each needs two eggs every day.
Because they've been eating well these days, both children have noticeably gained weight and look even more adorable!
Cheng Xiao Kui gave each of them two eggs so that her mother-in-law, mother, brother, and sister could also eat them.
In this day and age, who doesn't lack nutrition?
Basically, everyone is malnourished, so two eggs a day are a must!
The courtyard was bustling with activity.
Cheng Dongkui, who was lying in the house, also wanted to sit in the yard. This was the first time he had asked to go out and sit outside.
Song Wenhui was overjoyed. Ever since her son got the disease, he had refused to go out and locked himself in his room every day.
She even suspected that her son was trying to starve himself to death because he refused to eat.
But now that my son has come up with this idea, what does that mean? It means that my son has the will to live and doesn't want to die anymore!
She quickly called out to Cheng Qiu Kui, and the mother and daughter carried Cheng Dong Kui to an old-fashioned bamboo recliner.
Because Cheng Dongkui can't sit up on his own, he can no longer control his body, so he can only lie half-reclined on the recliner.
But as he listened to the lively chatter of the family in the yard, a smile appeared on his face.
Cheng Xiao Kui took a few slices of roasted sweet potato and put them in her younger brother's mouth. She patted his head and said, "Is it delicious? If we save up some more money, we can take you to see a doctor!"
