Chapter 134 Li is courting death!
When Old Lady Cen came out to make trouble before daybreak, they didn't hear anything.
However, at that time, Old Lady Cen was shouting loudly about the second house. Doesn’t this mean it’s none of their business?
So no one got up to see what was going on.
But when they couldn't see anyone from the second house, they realized that something seemed wrong.
"The second wife didn't cook!" Yu said angrily as she came out of the kitchen.
It's been a whole night and I woke up with my stomach growling with hunger, but the second wife hasn't cooked yet?
Li is courting death!
"Li! Li! Cen Yan! Get up quickly and cook! What are you doing? Dad and the others are about to come back from working in the fields, and the meal is not ready yet. Do you want to starve them to death?" Yu walked to the door of the second room and started banging on it and shouting.
But there was silence in the second house, without any response.
Seeing no response from inside, Yu slammed the door even louder.
It wasn't until her hands were numb and painful from clapping that Cen Yan finally came out and opened the door: "Aunt San? What's going on?"
She asked as if she knew nothing.
As he spoke, he opened his little mouth and yawned.
"What's the matter? Let me ask you, why hasn't your second house cooked yet this morning? Do you know that your grandfather will be back from working in the fields soon? He needs to eat quickly when he comes back!" Yu said with a unhappy face.
"I know, but the problem is that our second room doesn't want to do it today, and grandma came over to make a fuss before dawn, making it so troublesome for my mother and me to sleep well. My mother is still catching up on her sleep and really can't get up!" Cen Yan answered as a matter of course.
"Me! You!" Yu seemed to be angered by these words and spoke incoherently for a moment.
So, Li is still sleeping?!
This realization made her so angry that her cheeks turned hot.
"So, she wants to catch up on sleep and doesn't even cook? What will your grandfather eat and drink when he comes back?" Yu asked again after she calmed down a little.
"Eat, eat steamed buns, eat vegetables, drink porridge, what else can you eat and drink? Do you want to eat delicacies from land and sea? A full banquet? I'm afraid that even a good cook cannot cook without rice!" Cen Yan looked at her with a smile and answered.
"Bah! I'm asking you, if your second branch doesn't cook, how will your grandfather and others eat?!" Yu shouted angrily at the top of her voice.
"Look at what Third Aunt said. My mother is not feeling well and can't get up today. I can't cook by myself. I really can't cook today. Our Second House is even at fault, so we don't plan to eat this meal in the morning! As for how grandpa and grandma eat, don't Third Aunt and eldest aunt know how to cook? Can't you just cook something for them? You ran to the door of our Second House and yelled and acted bossy. Do you really think that our Second House is a servant for your Third House to use!"
When Cen Yan saw her getting angry, he immediately uttered some sharp remarks.
Yu was so angry that she almost vomited blood, but she just couldn't say anything to refute this set of twisted logic!
"If you have nothing else to do, you'd better hurry up and cook, so that grandpa won't have nothing to eat when he comes back. It won't be a big deal if we in the second house get scolded then, but I'm afraid that grandpa will think that you and your aunt are lazy and have no manners, and he will definitely scold you both." Seeing that she couldn't answer, Cen Yan said with a bit of sneer.
"Why?! It is clearly your second room's turn to cook today, why should I cook?!" Upon hearing this, Yu retorted unconvincedly.
"Then let me ask you, if our second branch doesn't eat breakfast or cook in the future, will you also not cook or eat, and starve with our second branch?" Cen Yan asked back.
Yu opened her mouth but could not answer.
Of course that's impossible!
Let her starve?
This is absolutely impossible!
"So, Third Aunt, when Grandpa comes back and has no food to eat, he may not care why the second house doesn't cook, but he will definitely blame you and your aunt for being too lazy! If you don't believe me, you can just wait and see." After saying this, Cen Yan slammed the door shut again.
Yu stood there and was almost humiliated.
"What's going on? What does it mean that Cen Yan doesn't come out to cook and instead closes the door and goes back to the room? Is she going to call Li?" At this time, Gao, who had been hiding in the distance and watching, suddenly came over and asked.
"Li doesn't cook. Cen Yan said that Li wants to make up for her sleep because her mother scolded her before dawn. In short, their second branch didn't cook this morning." Yu turned her head, looked at Gao, and said softly.
She felt a little uncomfortable.
Gao was standing so far away just now, but he called her over to question her.
Isn't that a bit too smart?
"What?" Gao was shocked by Yu's words. "What kind of ambition does the Second House have? How dare they not cook? If Dad comes back and doesn't have a meal, he will be angry with us!"
“……” When Yu heard her say that, she felt a little depressed.
Why is Gao so smart?
Her meaning was clearly the same as what Cen Yan said.
Whether or not Old Man Cen blames the Second Wife for not having enough food to eat is one thing, but he will definitely scold both her and Gao!
"Then let's go cook, sister-in-law. This is not just the third room's responsibility. You in the first room also have to contribute." Yu stared at Gao and said.
"I..." Gao was about to agree, but Cen Ying suddenly came over and interrupted her before she could say anything.
"Why should you cook? In my opinion, you shouldn't cook today. When dad comes back, he will sue the second house first. Even if you don't cook, dad won't punish you severely. But the second house will be severely punished for this incident! For example, they can be punished by not being allowed to eat for ten days!" Cen Ying suggested.
"But..." Gao still had doubts about this.
Even if the second wife is punished, the first wife cannot be scolded for no reason.
Cen Ying waved her hand and said impatiently, "Sister-in-law, it's okay for you to skip a meal in the first house, right? Don't tell me you haven't hidden food in private! In short, let the second house suffer bad luck and be severely punished, or you just get scolded and eat one less meal at home... Think about it carefully and decide which one you will choose!"
As soon as she said this, Gao thought about it for a moment and then stopped hesitating.
"Of course I choose the latter."
After all, she hasn’t settled the accounts with the second wife yet!
When Yu heard what Gao said, she had no choice but to follow Gao's example and make the second house suffer.
After all, in this kind of situation, if she was the only one who cooked, Old Man Cen would have something to eat. Even if he scolded the people from the second room, he would not think of scolding Gao for not cooking. And according to Old Man Cen's usual partiality, their third room would not get any benefits from this.
"Me too." Yu replied quickly.
"Well, I'll be here when the time comes, and I guarantee that the second branch will be severely punished!" Cen Ying said confidently.
However, when she lowered her head, a sarcastic sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth and she raised it slightly.
