A moment later
Chen Susu's hands were still tied in the room, and her third aunt was holding a spoon to feed her.
"This is brown sugar porridge. You've been hungry these past few days, and I'm afraid my grandson will be hungry too. Drink more."
Seeing Third Aunt's expression, Chen Susu couldn't hide her disgust. She turned her head away from Third Aunt's hand and said, "Untie me and I'll eat it myself."
"Untie? That won't do."
Third Aunt refused without a second thought. Just now Chen Susu was trying to commit suicide. If she was untied, what would happen if she still wanted to commit suicide?
She is pregnant now and can't stand the tossing and turning.
Seeing the veins on Chen Susu's forehead looming, Su Man, who was standing by to help, hurried forward to persuade her, "Aunt, since your sister-in-law has come to her senses, why not let her go? Besides, we are all here, nothing will happen."
Third Aunt glanced at Su Man and Zhao Chunhua, then looked at Li Fuan who was sticking his head out of the door, and nodded secretly.
That’s right, with so many people around, even if we let this little bitch go, she won’t be able to do anything.
So she untied Chen Susu's rope, still threatening her, "I'm telling you, if you don't behave yourself later, I'll change to a big iron chain to lock you up, do you hear me?"
Chen Susu, who had regained her freedom, lowered her head and looked at the purple marks on her wrists. The skin had been worn off in some places, and the bright red tender flesh looked creepy.
"knew."
Hearing Chen Susu's answer, Third Aunt, who had never expected her to respond, was stunned.
Has this stubborn donkey finally come to his senses?
Under her surprised gaze, Chen Susu picked up the bowl of porridge and ate it in small bites.
Chen Susu's quietness at this moment was completely different from her madness just now. Even when Li Fuan came in, she didn't react much, and she didn't curse or resist like before.
Third Aunt was so happy, "That's right, you should take care of yourself and suffer less. My Fu'an treats you so well, why wouldn't you be reluctant to give birth to his child?"
Chen Susu's hand holding the spoon paused for a moment, then she continued to drink the porridge.
...
After persuading Chen Susu, Third Aunt felt relieved. When she sent Su Man and Zhao Chunhua out, she specially brought them a basket of eggs.
"Good boy, you helped me a lot today. I'll give you this egg to eat."
Zhao Chunhua declined, "Ah, Auntie, what are you doing? Take it back quickly."
She said this, but she held the basket of eggs tightly in her hand, fearing that her Third Aunt would really take it back.
Fortunately, Third Aunt also gave it to them sincerely and pushed the eggs directly into Zhao Chunhua's arms. "Hurry up and take it. This little thing is nothing. I was hoping that your Xiaoman would come over a few more times to comfort my stubborn donkey."
Zhao Chunhua, carrying a basket of eggs, smiled broadly. "Of course, of course. As long as you ask, I'll ask her to come over every day."
"I feel relieved when you say that. When my grandson is born, you can bring Xiaoman to the feast."
The two chatted for a while and agreed on a time to come over tomorrow, and then Zhao Chunhua took Su Man home.
On the way, Zhao Chunhua lifted the cloth covering the eggs and counted them one by one. There were a total of twenty. She happily held Su Man's hand and said, "Xiao Man, you are such a good wife to me. I will make you something delicious tonight when we get home."
Su Man laughed along twice, but her eyes were vaguely looking around the streets of the village.
It is called a street, but in fact it is just the gap between houses and farmland. Some villagers are more particular and lay bricks in front of their doorsteps, and some put a few stone slabs, but most of them are black and yellow mud.
When passing by one of the houses, Suman suddenly heard a noise coming from inside.
First came the high-pitched female voice, one after another like a machine gun, followed by a man's roar.
They all spoke in dialect, so Su Man couldn't hear clearly. But Zhao Chunhua's face turned unhappy after hearing a few words.
Before Su Man could ask, a horse-faced man came out angrily.
He was shirtless, with clothes draped over his shoulders, which he put on as he walked out.
Su Man was sharp-eyed and noticed two red marks on his neck, which seemed to be scratched by a woman. She guessed that this man must have had an argument with his wife at home.
The man was stunned when he saw Su Man and the others. His eyes flickered, and he finally managed to speak. He laughed dryly at Zhao Chunhua twice and said, "His Fifth Aunt, you're here."
Zhao Chunhua was a little unhappy just now, but she still put on a smile when she spoke, "Yes, his second uncle, where are you going?"
When Su Man heard the word "Second Uncle", she immediately understood who the man was. It was the second uncle that Zhao Chunhua had mentioned before, the one who wanted Li Xiang to help find a daughter-in-law for his daughter-in-law.
Seeing Zhao Chunhua staring at his neck, the second uncle awkwardly covered the wound on his neck with his hand, pretending to scratch an itch, and scratched the back of his neck. "The sun is getting dark now, I'll go take a look in the fields."
As he was speaking, a burly woman came out of the door, pointed at his second uncle and started scolding him, "How dare you run away? You've lent out all the family money, and now you don't even have a wife! Your good nephew is only busy finding a wife for his third uncle, and you, on the other hand, are so beautiful without a hair!"
"Mother of my child! What are you talking about? Don't you see who is here?"
My second uncle is a thin man. When he stands next to my second aunt, he looks like a one-month-old chick. When he gets angry, he has no intimidating power at all.
Second Aunt looked a bit masculine, with a pair of eyebrows coiled on her face like a centipede. In addition, she was angry at the moment, and her eyes were as big as a calf, which was very funny.
After being reminded by her second uncle, she also noticed Su Man and Zhao Chunhua, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but instead of restraining herself, she walked towards them with her arms folded.
