Chapter 31 Slapping the Face of the Best Relatives
Having said that, Xia Shuangshan took Lin Yuru and Xia Juanjuan back to his room, leaving Li Cuihua furious!
Xia Juanjuan had never expected that her father could be so handsome when he was fighting, and she couldn't help but smile.
Lin Yuru looked at her husband and then at her daughter. Although she was still worried about her future when she got old, she was genuinely happy in her heart. It felt like the first time in all these years that she could hold her head high!
She sighed and said, "That's good! I don't have to endure their anger anymore! But... Juan'er, I'm sorry. I steamed four white flour buns for you, but those two little bastards stole them all!"
Xia Juanjuan advised: "Mom, don't be sad. Just think of it as feeding the dog!"
Xia Juanjuan's voice was quite loud. Liu Hongmei and Sun Yuxiu in the yard heard it. They immediately looked embarrassed and angry: "Xia Juanjuan! Who are you scolding!"
Xia Juanjuan glanced at the two of them calmly: "Whoever responds will be scolded! Like son, like mother. If you can't even take care of your own pup, you are not a good person!"
Liu Hongmei and Sun Yuxiu were almost mad with anger and wanted to rush up to beat Xia Juanjuan, but when they saw Xia Shuangshan, who was as ferocious as a mountain god standing beside them, they had to turn around and beat their own son in anger.
"I told you to eat secretly! Now you are being scolded by others!"
Xia Chuncai and Xia Chunhuo were beaten so badly that they immediately raised their heads and burst into tears.
Li Cuihua was furious. If it weren't for the two rabbit grandsons, the second brother would have been able to move out of the family. She picked up her walking stick and hit the two of them.
"I'm going to beat you two to death, you bastards! You were caught eating and you're still feeling wronged? Shut up! If you keep crying, I'm going to beat you to death!"
Not satisfied after the beating, he picked up his cane and beat his two sons, Xia Dazhuang and Xia Sanxi.
"You two deserve to be beaten! You couldn't even raise your own son! And you even raised a thief!"
While fighting, he did not forget to glance at Xia Shuangshan.
Li Cuihua had a very careful plan in mind.
The second brother asked her to divide the family property today, wasn't it because these two bunny grandsons stole his white flour steamed buns, and at the instigation of Xia Juanjuan?
If she beat up the two grandsons, the second son would probably calm down. If she had a good talk with him, he would probably not mention the matter of dividing the family property.
Seeing Li Cuihua stealing glances at this side, Xia Juanjuan had already guessed what she was thinking. She ignored the dog-eat-dog fight in the yard and immediately uncovered the cloth on the basket and took out the things she had brought back one by one.
"Mom, look what I brought back for you. We're having all-you-can-eat meat for lunch today! Why would we need to eat steamed buns made of white flour?"
Everyone in the yard stretched their necks to look over.
As soon as they saw it, everyone showed envy and regretful expressions!
Two pounds of pork, an old hen, and thirty eggs!
These things are enough to feed the dozen or so people in the Xia family for ten days!
It’s a pity that Xia Shuangshan just said that he wanted to split up the family, so they will have no share of the meat, chickens, and eggs!
Liu Hongmei and Sun Yuxiu's eyes were drooling, and they turned around angrily and slapped their son twice on the face.
"You two brainless idiots! You are so short-sighted! You only saw the white flour steamed buns? Look! Now you can't even eat the old hen, pork and eggs that are right in front of you!"
If these two hadn't stolen the things, all the things Xia Juanjuan brought back would have belonged to them!
Xia Chuncai and Xia Chunhuo burst into tears again, crying and complaining: "Wow! Mom, why did you hit me? You should have told me that Auntie was heating up the steamed buns so that I could go eat them!"
When Liu Hongmei and Sun Yuxiu heard this, they slapped him again: "You idiot! Damn... I never said that..."
Xia Juanjuan looked at the farce in the yard and felt... very comfortable.
Lin Yuru and Xia Shuangshan stared at the things on the table in amazement.
After a long while, Lin Yuru finally asked, "Juan'er, why did you bring so many things back? Where did you get so many things? Does your in-laws know about this? Or you should take them back! If your in-laws find out, they will scold you and beat you up!"
Xia Juanjuan smiled and said, "Mom! You worry too much! These were all bought with my husband's allowance. We have already separated from my mother-in-law. He gets 40 yuan a month in allowance, and from now on, 30 yuan will be given to me, so I can spend it however I want!"
After hearing this, the people in the yard showed even more shock and jealousy on their faces.
"What did you say?! How much do you get per month?!" Li Cuihua asked in a lost voice.
"Thirty yuan?! No! Absolutely impossible! Didn't Liu Lan say that her son's monthly allowance was only five yuan? How could it be forty yuan?!"
Sun Yuxiu said in a somewhat distraught tone!
If she had known that Li Zhan would receive so much allowance every month, would it be Xia Juanjuan's turn to marry him? She would have directly married her daughter Xia Lanlan to him and become a widow... No! She would have lived a peaceful life!
Forty dollars! This money is enough for them to eat and drink delicious food for a year!
Not to mention it’s only forty dollars a month!
Her daughter Xia Lanlan standing by was already going crazy with jealousy.
Why! Why is Xia Juanjuan so lucky? She married a disabled and infertile husband, but in return she received a monthly allowance of thirty yuan!
Why wasn't she the one he married in the first place?
Lin Yuru also looked at her daughter in shock: "Is what you said... all true?"
Xia Juanjuan smiled and said, "Of course it's true. Mom, let's not talk about this anymore. Hurry up and cook for me. I'm starving. Roast one pound of this meat and make a plate of braised pork. Smoke the remaining pound and hang it up to make air-dried meat. It won't go bad and you can eat it in winter! The old hen is not big, so roast it all and make carrot and chicken soup. And eggs, fry five or six eggs. Just make these two dishes and one soup, cook some cornmeal and sweet potato porridge, and heat up some mixed noodles and wild vegetable steamed buns. Our family of three will have enough to eat!"
The whole family in the yard drooled just by listening, but Xia Juanjuan obviously did not include them in this meal!
Liu Hongmei was the first one who couldn't help herself. She took a few steps forward with a drooling face and said with a smile: "Second sister-in-law, you can't cook so many dishes by yourself, right? Let me help you cook!"
Sun Yuxiu was stunned for a moment, then rushed over, pushing Liu Hongmei aside fiercely, and said, "Yes, second sister-in-law! I'll help you! My cooking skills are much better than that of the eldest sister-in-law!"
Xia Juanjuan sneered at them: "Auntie, Third Auntie, how come I remember that it was always my mother who cooked for the whole family in this house? I have never seen you enter the kitchen!"
Liu Hongmei and Sun Yuxiu's faces suddenly turned red and white, which looked very beautiful.
They smiled apologetically, "Juanjuan, look at what you are saying! We... we are not as good as your mother in cooking, right? That's why Xian gave it to your mother... But in the future! In the future, we will definitely learn from your mother and help her cook!"
Xia Juanjuan smiled coldly and said, "I think there's no need for your help. My mother will only cook for my father and herself from now on. From now on, you, your husbands, children and kids, will have to cook yourselves three meals a day!"
