Chapter 106 Daughters are all money-losing goods
Li Xiaocao was calling Xiaobao outside.
Dong Yulan ran to the gate and said, "Xiao Cao, your brother is at my house, come over and take him back!"
Li Xiaocao, who was anxiously looking for someone outside, hurried over.
The weather was already a bit cold, and Li Xiaocao was still wearing a thin shirt. The collar and cuffs of the shirt were badly worn, and the patches on the arms were patched up...
Li Xiaocao was very thin, and her clothes were loose on her body, with the hem of her clothes still half way long.
The little girl was a little shy. When she arrived at Gu's house, she shyly greeted Dong Yulan, and then went to take her younger brother Li Xiaobao home.
Li Xiaobao was a fat and white man. He held the handle of Dong Yulan's chair with one hand and refused to move no matter how Li Xiaocao pulled him away.
"Eat, eat!" Li Xiaobao pointed at the peanuts in the sieve, his mouth watering with greed.
Dong Yulan paused while peeling peanuts and said, "Xiaocao, it's not that Grandma Dong doesn't want your brother to eat peanuts. Your brother is young and it's easy for him to get stuck in his throat if he eats them!"
Just then Wang Caixia came over.
Dong Yulan glanced at him and said, "Your son is asking for peanuts. I dare not give him such a dangerous thing!"
"Eat, eat, eat!" Li Xiaobao was stubborn and insisted on eating.
Gu Qiqi grabbed a handful and gave it to Li Xiaocao: "Eat!"
The little girl was so skinny that she was almost skin and bones, and her eyes were timid but clear.
There are a lot of kids like her in this era.
Li Xiaocao took the peanuts but didn't dare to eat them. Instead, she looked at her mother Wang Caixia out of habit.
"Haha, your little girl is so well-behaved and pretty. I wish our Xiaocao could be half as pretty as your girl!" Wang Caixia looked envious.
If Xiaocao could grow prettier, she could marry into a good family in the future and help her son!
Unfortunately, her daughter is dark and ugly, with a pointed chin, and doesn't look like a blessed person.
"What are you talking about? How can a mother dislike her own daughter..." Dong Yulan glanced at Wang Caixia.
Both mother and daughter were so thin that they looked unrecognizable, but their son was plump and fair.
"Your daughter is so thin, she should eat more food, she will look better if she gains some weight!"
Wang Caixia: "Daughters are all money-losing goods. It's good enough to be raised by a stutterer!"
Just one sentence instantly made the good-tempered Dong Yulan very angry.
I don’t know how this mother can be called a money-loser in front of her own daughter.
Dong Yulan subconsciously glanced at Li Xiaocao, and seeing the little girl with her head down, she couldn't help but sigh.
When he looked at Wang Caixia again, his face was a little unhappy: "Our Qibao is not a money-losing commodity. Our daughter is more precious than our son!"
"Haha, your family is different!" Although Wang Caixia disagreed in her heart, she agreed.
"These peanuts are really good, auntie, can I exchange some with you for money?"
Wang Caixia saw that her son was very greedy and made a request.
"Or you can exchange something for it!" Seeing that Dong Yulan didn't respond, Wang Caixia changed the topic.
"I'm sorry, we don't have enough peanuts. How about you go to the supply and marketing cooperative next time to see if you can buy some?" Dong Yulan refused casually.
"Take these and eat them. There are many people in our family and there are many mouths to feed!" Dong Yulan grabbed a handful for her and told her to just taste them. There wasn't much left.
"How sorry, we can't take advantage!" Wang Caixia was flattered.
"Eat, eat~" Li Xiaobao pointed at the peanuts in Wang Caixia's hand and opened his mouth to eat.
"Okay, Mom will give our little treasure some peanuts now!" Wang Caixia squatted down, peeled two peanuts, threw them into her mouth, chewed them up, and then fed them to her son.
"This way we don't have to worry about it getting stuck in our throat!" Wang Caixia said, thinking she was being very smart.
Gu Qiqi on the side was stunned.
Gu Jinchen and Gu Jinan were also stunned!
Dong Yulan frowned and finally chose to remain silent.
"Eat peanuts!" Gu Qiqi walked up to Li Xiaocao, looked up at her and said.
The little girl subconsciously glanced at Wang Caixia.
"Let's eat here!" Gu Qiqi suddenly said.
The little girl, who was about four or five years old, had a flash of struggle in her big eyes...
Facing Qibao's big black eyes, Li Xiaocao didn't know where he got the courage from, but stuffed the peeled peanuts in his hand into his mouth.
Take a bite, the skin is crispy and the meat is tender, and the fragrant flavor immediately spreads in your mouth.
Li Xiaocao's eyes widened, as if the whole world was filled with this wonderful taste.
She immediately stuffed all the remaining peanuts in her hand into her mouth, leaving none behind...
Gu Qiqi blinked her eyes, the little girl could still be saved!
Wang Caixia, who was standing by, was so angry that she wanted to beat her daughter when she saw her daughter eat all the delicious food herself and didn't leave any for her brother!
However, because they were in someone else's house and were being watched by Dong Yulan and others, Wang Caixia did not take any action.
Wang Caixia stayed at Gu's house for a while and then went back with her son and daughter.
The courtyard door closed, and Dong Yulan looked at Qibao: "Your intentions are good, but their family is used to favoring boys over girls. If she eats the delicious food, she might be punished when she returns!"
"They are just a piece of flesh that fell off my body. The child is so thin, and how can a mother be so cruel..." Su Qingshan, who was chopping wood at the side, couldn't help but say.
Dong Yulan shook her head: "I think she is not only cruel to the children, but also to herself."
The preference for boys over girls is very common in rural areas.
Some families give birth to several daughters and are determined to have a son!
A family without a son is called a "wild family" in the local area and will be despised by others!
It is obvious that Wang Caixia is also one of those who has been deeply poisoned by the idea of favoring boys over girls.
Su Mingmei woke up from a nap in her room and asked, "What are you guys talking about so excitedly?"
"Nothing was said. I noticed you were acting strange lately. Are you pregnant again?" Dong Yulan didn't want to mention Wang Caixia anymore. She looked at her daughter with a tired look on her face and was suddenly startled.
My daughter has been rather sleepy lately.
Every morning I sleep until breakfast is cooked, and after eating, I start to feel sleepy again after a while.
When I was in the nursery, I could only hold on, but on my days off, I basically stayed glued to my bed.
Before, Dong Yulan just thought that her daughter was tired from work.
Now when I think about it, I feel like something is not right!
My daughter is not only sleepy, but her appetite has also increased a lot. Recently, she especially likes sour food!
"Mom, don't scare me!" Su Mingmei was shocked.
She has given birth to four children, three sons and one daughter, which is already a perfect life for her!
She finally got a job, and she doesn't want to go home and have babies again!
"Why would I scare you? Jinze is not at home. Wait until he comes back tomorrow and let him feel your pulse and you'll know!"
She felt that there was a high probability that she was pregnant!
