Little did Yue Jiuyue know that Liu had put the cooked sparrows into a basin and then placed it on the ground. When Yue Jiuyue wasn't looking, Xiaoman took one and started eating it. Her big eyes narrowed as she ate it. Then, her big eyes darted around and she picked up another one and ran straight outside. Liu didn't even realize that her daughter was missing.
"Xiaoman, is this for me?"
Yue Jiuyue was extremely surprised. Wasn't Xiaoman afraid of her?
Xiaoman grinned and nodded at Yue Jiuyue, giving a soft "hmm," while also stuffing another sparrow into her mouth.
Yue Jiuyue happily accepted the sparrow Xiaoman gave her and took a small bite.
I must say, it's been a long time since I've had meat, and this sparrow is really delicious!
Yue Jiuyue couldn't resist, and quickly finished the little sparrow.
Yue Jiuyue took out a handkerchief from her sleeve to wipe her mouth, then sat there watching Xiaoman struggle to bite the sparrow. She tried very hard, but just couldn't get it off, which made Yue Jiuyue laugh.
"Xiaoman! Xiaoman!"
Suddenly, Liu's voice rang out, filled with panic and fear.
Yue Jiuyue hurriedly urged Xiaoman to go home.
"Xiaoman, your mother is calling you, hurry home!"
Xiaoman shook her head, stubbornly sitting next to Yue Jiuyue, continuing her struggle with the sparrow.
Yue Jiuyue felt helpless, with a sense that something unexpected was about to happen.
Sure enough, when they couldn't find the child at Liu's house, they went out to look for him, and their first destination was the threshing ground where Yue Jiuyue was.
"Xiaoman!"
Liu rushed over, quickly scooped the child into her arms, and held her tightly. Only after getting away from Yue Jiuyue did she angrily cry out to her:
"Mother! Please! Don't sell Xiaoman, okay? I know Xiaoman has eaten a lot of food lately. I'll keep a close eye on her from now on and I promise I won't let her eat so much again!"
Yue Jiuyue knew things would go wrong, but she never expected Liu Shi to be so brainless. Xiaoman was eating right in front of her, and she hadn't even touched Xiaoman, yet she was still blamed. She was speechless.
"Liu! You can't just cry and think you're right! Do you even have eyes? What did you see when you came over? What did I do to Xiaoman? You came over and started wailing without saying a word, saying I was going to sell Xiaoman. When did I ever say I was going to sell Xiaoman?"
Don't say I didn't say it. If I really wanted to sell Xiaoman, would you still be watching her right now? Don't you have a brain?! If you don't want to live like this anymore, go back to your parents' house!
Yue Jiuyue was spitting as she spoke, which showed how angry she was.
Instead of enjoying a peaceful life, she's always looking for trouble. Her mother-in-law hasn't even bothered Liu Shi, yet Liu Shi is constantly making things difficult for her. She's really giving her face!
It is said that a daughter-in-law becomes a mother-in-law after ten years of hardship, and Yue Jiuyue does not mind letting Liu Shi see what a mother-in-law who has become a daughter-in-law after ten years of hardship looks like.
Liu's face turned pale as she was scolded.
Going back to her parents' home?
She's been married into Linjiagou for three years and has even had a child. If she's divorced and sent home now, how will she survive?
"Mother! I was wrong! I was blind! I was brainless! I was wrong! Mother! Please don't send me back to my parents' home!"
Liu casually put Xiaoman down, not even noticing that Xiaoman had lost her balance. She rushed forward and hugged Yue Jiuyue's leg, crying and begging.
Yue Jiuyue quickly moved away from Liu Shi and watched from afar as Xiaoman fell on her bottom. She didn't cry, but sat on the ground staring blankly at her and Liu Shi.
