"Why would a little girl like you eat meat? It'll make her greedy! If there's meat, it should be given to Liangliang who's growing." Grandma Hao looked at Mei's mother disapprovingly.
"Give them all to eat..."
"Grandma, my mom and grandma are so biased! They didn't give me any of the fried meatballs, they gave them all to Sisi!" Mei Liang was unhappy when he heard what his mom said, so he quickly complained.
"You brat, what are you saying? If you hadn't stolen most of the meatballs, would you have gotten any?" Mei's mother glared at Mei Liang, who was blatantly lying.
"I didn't steal any food! I didn't eat it! Grandma, look at my mom, she doesn't believe me!" Mei Liang felt wronged whenever he mentioned this; he hadn't stolen any food at all!
"We won't pay attention to your mother, Grandma believes in you! Tonight we'll eat meat and not give it to your sister!" Grandma Hao quickly hugged her grandson to comfort him.
"I don't know what you two were thinking. Look how badly you've hurt my grandson! He's become so thin! Do you still want to rely on Liangliang for your old age? If you treat him like this now, be careful he doesn't become unfilial to you later!"
"If he dares to be unfilial, I'll break his legs! By the way, where's my dad?" Aunt Mei has been here for ages, but she still hasn't seen Grandpa Hao.
"He went to your Uncle Xu's house for a drink. Da Gang can go and call him later."
"Fifth Sister, you haven't eaten yet, have you? Here, I've heated up the food from this morning. Don't mind it, we'll have something better tonight." Sister-in-law Hao brought two steaming bowls of food into the house.
"What's there to complain about? We're all family. Hey! Where's Lao Mei?" Mei's mother finally remembered that Mei's father hadn't come into the house yet.
"I went with your eldest brother to inform your second brother and the others. They should be back in a little while," Sister-in-law Hao replied.
"Liangliang, come here, Grandma will get you some crispy pork." Grandma Hao got off the kang (heated brick bed), put on her shoes, and led Meiliang into the kitchen.
Coconut Silk Ears are very perceptive; as soon as it heard the word "meat," it immediately got off the kang (heated brick bed).
"Hey! Slow down!" Sister-in-law Hao was startled when she saw Ye Si getting off the kang (a heated brick bed) and quickly went to help her.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry about her, she's very efficient! Have you eaten yet, sister-in-law?" Mei's mother knew what her daughter had been doing and didn't take it seriously.
"Here, you haven't had this crispy pork for two years, do you want some?" Grandma Hao put a few pieces of crispy pork into her grandson's hands.
"Um, I really want to... Ah! Take your foot away!" Mei Liang was about to put the crispy meat in his mouth when he felt a sharp pain in his toe.
Mei Liang looked down and saw that Ye Si was stepping on his toes and drooling over the crispy pork in his hand.
"Get off me right now, it hurts so much! Why are you so heavy again? It's only been a few days!" Mei Liang twisted his face as he pushed the coconut shreds away.
Coconut Silk didn't insist on staying put; she snatched the meat from Mei Liang's hand and stuffed it into her mouth.
"..." Mei Liang looked at his empty hands speechlessly, and could only turn to look at Grandma Hao.
