Chapter 512: Eat Less Meat, You Won’t Die
Looking at the big white fat meat in the big porcelain bowl, everyone except Jia Lianhua's eyes lit up, and they couldn't wait to pick up their chopsticks and put it all into their own bowls.
Is this called braised pork?
Jia Lianhua has no appetite.
"Lotus, eat quickly. You've lost a lot of weight recently." Mrs. Liu's smile was a little fake.
In order to make this little girl obedient, I spent a lot of money.
Otherwise, which good family would cook meat like this?
If you want to cook such good meat, you have to fry it in oil first and use it for cooking later.
When cooking, you can add some fried dough sticks into the dish and cook them together, but you will never put them all in at once.
So, Liu was feeling very painful at this moment.
This bowl of meat cost her fifteen cents.
Jia Lianhua said nothing.
In the past, she would have been drooling at the sight of this big, white piece of fat meat.
But now she works for the Xu family and has no worries about food and drink, and there is some meat with every meal. Although not much, it is there, so she is not greedy for meat.
What's more, after having tasted the food cooked by the Xu family, who would still look down on this big piece of fat meat that still smells of meat? She felt a little nauseous.
"You guys eat it, I don't want to eat." Jia Lianhua said as she poked at the mixed grain rice in her bowl.
It turned out to be rice and meat. It seemed that Liu was going to reveal her cards.
Jia Lianhua lowered her head, with a hint of calculation in her eyes.
"How can this be possible? If you don't eat well, how can you be healthy?" Mrs. Liu shook her head in disapproval.
Then she picked up the bowl of meat and put most of it into Jia Lianhua's bowl, then said kindly:
"Lotus, eat quickly and eat more. You've lost so much weight lately."
Jia Lianhua didn't say anything, but a hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Has she lost weight?
She has obviously gained weight, okay?
"Mom!" Jia Juhua, who was standing by, looked at the little meat left in the bowl and screamed in disbelief:
"If you give it all to her, what will we eat?"
Liu's face darkened. "Isn't there more here? It's enough for you to eat."
After saying that, he directly put a piece into her bowl and said, "Eat it, it's not missing anything from you, debt collector!"
Jia Juhua was extremely angry.
Why is Jia Lianhua's bowl full of meat, while I only get one piece?
This time, before Jia Lianhua could get angry, the Jia brothers, who were only seven and six years old, started making a fuss first.
"Mom, I want to eat meat, why did you give it all to this money-loser?"
"Give me all the money-losing people you mentioned who don't deserve to eat meat!"
…
Seeing this, Liu immediately became angry and scolded them, calling them starving ghosts who only knew how to eat all day long.
"Okay, what's wrong with eating less?
Eat less, you won’t starve to death.
Look at your sister. She's never had any good food in this family. What's wrong with asking her to eat more?"
When she said this, she also glanced at Jia Lianhua on purpose.
According to Jia Lianhua's previous personality, she would give it up out of fear.
Haha, I didn’t buy this meat to feed that cheap girl Jia Lianhua.
Now, I just have to wait for her to give up the meat, and then I can give the meat to my children.
Liu's eyes were full of calculation.
Jia Lianhua lowered her head slightly, pretending not to see Liu's gaze.
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly. How could she not know Liu's plan?
According to what the eldest lady said, the abacus beads of Liu Shi were about to hit her in the face.
Now I am not so stupid as she wishes.
So she pretended to be stupid, picked up the chopsticks, and started eating slowly.
The greasy fatty pork was so disgusting that she almost wanted to vomit.
Seeing Jia Lianhua was completely indifferent and just started eating, Mrs. Liu wanted to get angry but didn't dare. She could only yell at her two crying sons:
"Why are you crying? Hurry and eat.
You won't die if you skip a meal of meat, just eat plain rice."
After yelling, she angrily picked up the chopsticks, scooped up a big mouthful of rice, and bit it hard, as if she was gnawing on Jia Lianhua's flesh.
From time to time, he glared at Jia Lianhua with resentment in his eyes.
Jia Lianhua looked up in bewilderment. "Stepmother, didn't you let me eat the meat? Why are you angry because I ate it?"
Liu's body stiffened, but she immediately smiled:
"What nonsense are you talking about, kid?
This meat was originally made for you, why should I be angry? Just eat it!"
In fact, Liu was almost furious at this moment.
She did it on purpose.
"That's good." Jia Lianhua smiled fakely:
"I thought you were angry."
"Don't be angry, just eat it with confidence. This is made for you. They don't have any share." Liu said this with a gritted teeth feeling.
At the same time, she picked up the large porcelain bowl and poured the remaining pieces of meat into Jia Lianhua's bowl:
"Eat, these are all for you."
You silly girl, if you weren’t still useful, would you eat this meat?
Eat as much as you can, you deserve it.
Liu gritted her teeth inwardly.
But when she thought of the generous reward after the task was completed, the ferocity on Liu's face disappeared instantly, and then her face was filled with tenderness.
After getting the reward, this stinky girl...
There was a hint of ill intention in Liu's eyes, and she had her moments of comfort.
Jia Lianhua was very excited. "Stepmother, you are so kind to me. You gave me all the delicious food. You are so kind."
She did not miss the resentment and dissatisfaction in the eyes of Jia Juhua and the others.
Hate it.
Only when you completely hate her, you can carry out her plan.
The eldest lady asked her to take this opportunity to sever ties with them, so that they wouldn't cause trouble for her again in the future.
The eldest lady is so naive. Even if she breaks off relations with these people, they will still come if they want to cause trouble.
Because they are shameless, like leeches, once they suck, they won't let go.
so……
A gloomy look flashed in Jia Lianhua's eyes. She wanted to get rid of this problem once and for all.
Then, she stood up with a smile, picked up her bowl, and transferred the meat from her bowl to the brothers' bowls:
"My dear brothers, you are the future of our Jia family. You must eat more so that you can grow up well and become the pillars of the family.
Don't worry, I'll give you whatever delicious food I have from now on, so eat it quickly."
When the two brothers saw the meat in their bowls, their eyes lit up and they started eating quickly, enjoying the delicious food. However, they didn't say a word of thanks and acted as if it was their right.
Jia Juhua, who was standing by, suddenly became very upset when she saw that she had no place to stand.
"Why isn't there one for me?" She looked at Jia Lianhua dissatisfiedly.
This time, Liu Shi didn't wait for Jia Lianhua to speak, she spoke first, her face stern:
"You are a money-loser, why would you eat meat?
That was given to your younger brother by your eldest sister, don’t touch it.
You are lucky to have this meal, what else do you want?"
After saying this, she smiled and praised Jia Lianhua for being sensible.
Although she felt that what Jia Lianhua said was a bit strange, as long as the meat went into her son's mouth, it was fine.
Jia Lianhua ate with her head down shyly, but she was very happy in her heart.
When Jia Juhua saw this scene, she felt it was glaring and disgusting.
What's wrong with her mother? Why is she so nice to that bitch Jia Lianhua?
Looking at Jia Lianhua's smug look, Jia Juhua was so angry that she poked the rice in the bowl and vented all her anger on the rice.
…
After dinner, Jia Lianhua diligently washed the dishes and prepared to go home.
Just as she was about to leave, Mrs. Liu asked her to sleep at home for one night before leaving.
Jia Lianhua looked embarrassed, "It's dark now, but it's not far, I can walk back.
Go back tonight and you can have breakfast prepared by the embroidery room tomorrow. There are steamed buns and porridge, which will fill you up."
"That's nothing. Tomorrow, mother will treat you to meat buns." Liu said proudly:
"So you sleep at home tonight, and we can have a chat as mother and daughter."
Jia Lianhua hesitated.
"Mom, we want to eat meat buns too." The Jia brothers sniffed, "Meat buns are delicious."
Jia Juhua also looked expectant, "Mom, I want to eat too!"
Liu frowned. A meat bun cost two cents, and that cheap girl wanted three. If the three of them each wanted three, that would mean twelve cents for six. It would be a huge loss.
He put on a stern face and said, "No! You guys don't do any work and don't make any money, so only your sister can eat these meat buns."
As soon as these words were spoken, Jia Juhua and her two siblings' faces turned dark.
"Mom, you don't love us."
After saying this, the Jia brothers rushed forward angrily, pushed Liu, and then rushed out angrily.
Jia Juhua also glared at Liu angrily, turned around and ran out.
Liu was anxious.
She wanted to explain, but seeing Jia Lianhua looking at her, she could only fake a smile and said, "Lianhua, you rest at home. I'll go find them."
"Stepmother, I'll accompany you."
…
In the dark, Jia Lianhua accompanied Liu to search the village and found the two brothers, but did not find Jia Juhua.
This made Liu very angry. "You money-loser, if you dare to run away, don't come back. I will treat you as my daughter."
Jia Lianhua held her younger brother's hand in each. She glanced at the weeds nearby and then looked at Liu.
"Stepmother, Juhua is young and ignorant..."
"You're still young?" Liu interrupted her, gritting her teeth.
“She’s old enough to find a husband, but she’s still running around like a spoiled brat.
It's better not to have such a disobedient little girl."
"Looking for a husband?" Jia Lianhua was bewildered.
"If you say so, stepmother, then the rumors in the village are true?
Are you really planning to give the chrysanthemums to your eldest cousin from your uncle's family?
Wouldn't this be bad?
My cousin is so much older than Juhua, and they have no feelings for each other, so this marriage is not a good one."
Liu was stunned. Who wanted to marry Juhua to her nephew?
But when she saw Jia Lianhua looking at her foolishly, Liu didn't dare to say that she wanted to marry her to her nephew, for fear of arousing her disgust. After all, she had to coax Jia Lianhua before she would do things for her.
He immediately shook his head and said, "Lotus, it's good that you know this. Don't spread this matter. Juhua and his cousin are quite a match."
As soon as these words were spoken, Jia Lianhua smiled.
But Jia Juhua, who was hiding in the dark, was extremely angry.
Her mother has changed!
Her mother only loves Jia Lianhua now. Her cousin is such a bad person, but her mother actually wants her to marry him!
No, she doesn't want to get married!
There was a vicious glint in Jia Juhua's eyes. If she wanted to marry a loser, forget it.
Jia Juhua glanced at them, bent down and turned away.
She didn't know that Jia Lianhua was watching her leave with a smile on his face.
