Chapter 204: Banquet



"Bullshit, Liu Ermei, you must have eaten shit before you went out today, your mouth is full of feces stench, it's fine if you stink yourself, but today is my good day and you come to my house to bring bad luck to me."

Liu Ermei is the name of Dazhu's mother. However, after she gave birth to a son, she was always proud of her good-for-nothing son and kept calling him Dazhu. As time went by, people stopped calling her by her name and called her Aunt Dazhu instead.

Old Mrs. Miao originally thought that everyone could get along harmoniously on days like this, but someone deliberately tried to make her unhappy, and she, Miao Sanfeng, was not someone to be trifled with.

"Big sister, why do you say that? I'm doing this for the good of your little treasure. We've all seen that girl when she was a child. She had a pointed chin, which meant she couldn't hold back her good fortune. She might even be a husband-killer." Why would Liu Ermei ever think of offending Old Lady Miao? Now the Jiang family still buys vegetables from the village at a price higher than the market price. Although Jiang Dazhu's family are lazy, they will still take good care of the land on which they depend for their survival. Their annual food supply depends entirely on the few acres of vegetable fields that the Jiang family bought at a high price.

Liu Ermei felt that she had to be conscientious. She was doing this for the good of the Jiang family. Why was Miao Sanfeng ungrateful?

"Puh..." Old Lady Miao spitted at Liu Ermei, "I know what color shit you poop just by sticking your butt out. Do you really think I don't know your little tricks? I tell you, no matter how good Xiaocao is, I will never let Xiaobao marry her as his wife if she has a relative like you. They are all like leeches in the field. If he marries you, it would be like marrying a bunch of blood-sucking worms. How can I be so stupid to make myself suffer like this?"

Old Mrs. Miao's eyes were almost rolled to the sky. The whole family had no skills but they were self-important. The two old people were lazy and cunning. Giving birth to a son was useless and he couldn't find a wife locally. No one knew what tricks he used to trick Yu Xiaocao's aunt to come back. Now Jiang Dazhu's family was only supported by Yu Xiaocao's aunt. Yu Xiaocao also had a conscience. After work, she often sent money back to her aunt, so that they could make ends meet.

She would have no time to hide from such a family, so how could she let her heart and liver be contaminated by them?

"Also, our Ruan Ruan is not a jinx. You don't know how her parents died. They are martyrs. Without the sacrifices of soldiers like them, there would be no good life like we have today. Let alone that time, just take the Vietnam War a few years ago. How many soldiers stayed there and never came back? Could it be that their elderly parents and their hungry children are all jinxes? Just because of what you said, I can't have you at my birthday party today. Dongmei, please see you off for me."

Mrs. Miao's words came from the bottom of her heart. Her husband lost a leg on the battlefield, and her grandson is now a soldier. It was the sacrifices of those people who brought us the peace we have today when foreign invaders invaded. Every inch of China's 9 million square kilometers of land is stained with the blood of their heroic spirits. In the past, present, and future, those people are worthy of respect from everyone.

"That's right, Dazhu's wife, you shouldn't have said that. If it had happened in earlier years, you would have been criticized and sent to labor camp." The people around her also felt that Liu Ermei had some problems with her brain. What can she say and what can't she say? She is at her age, doesn't she understand this? She spread rumors about a girl who lost her parents at a young age in front of everyone. I'm afraid her conscience has been eaten by dogs.

After this scene, everyone's rejection of Jiang Dazhu's family reached a new level. Some families who had originally seen Yu Xiaocao's success and were often concerned about the things her aunt sent back now gave up the idea of ​​being on good terms with Jiang Dazhu's family, and were even more afraid to propose marriage to Yu Xiaocao for their children. What Mrs. Miao said was right. Marrying Yu Xiaocao would mean getting into trouble with Jiang Dazhu's family, which would be too costly.

"Hey, why are you still chasing people away, Dazhu, Dazhu's wife, where have you two been?" Gu Dongmei followed her mother-in-law's instructions and asked Dazhu's mother to go out. Dazhu's mother was reluctant to leave the table full of delicious food and wine. The worms in her stomach were so craving for meat that the little bit of beef was not even enough to fill her teeth. She hugged Gu Dongmei's arm and wanted to make a scene.

"Yu Xiaocao, you bastard, you just watched them chase me away. Who did I say those words for? Wasn't it for you? You covet their grandson every day, and now that you haven't even had sex with them, you're already siding with their grandmother and helping them bully me."

No one noticed Yu Xiaocao at first, especially those who were standing far away and chatting excitedly with each other. They didn't even hear the conversation between Liu Ermei and Old Lady Miao. But now, because she was about to be kicked out, Liu Ermei's voice couldn't help but become a little shrill, and everyone was attracted by her voice. After hearing such an explosive conversation, everyone's attention was focused on Yu Xiaocao in the crowd.

Pity, inquiry, contempt... Yu Xiaocao felt as if she was stripped naked by everyone's gaze, without a trace of dignity.

"Why are you still standing there? Don't think I didn't see it. Every time you come back from the New Year, your eyes are glued to Xiaobao. I can smell that flirtation from miles away. If it weren't for your little thoughts, would I have made your grandma Miao angry just now?" Liu Ermei blamed all the mistakes on Yu Xiaocao. Those who didn't hear what she said just now really thought that the facts were as Liu Ermei said. Even if there was a difference, it was not that different. They looked at Yu Xiaocao with strange eyes.

"Jiang Dazhu, why don't you take your parents away? You are telling nonsense just to make things difficult for me." Old Mrs. Miao didn't like Yu Xiaocao, but she wouldn't really watch an innocent girl have her reputation ruined like this.

If her reputation is ruined, she won't be able to get married. If she can't get married, then she will be completely determined to pester their little treasure.

Old Mrs. Miao murmured in her heart that she couldn't let such a thing happen.

"It was you who just called those martyrs' children jinxes and upset me, and you threw all that shit on Xiaocao. Do you still have any shame, Jiang Dazhu? If you don't take your parents away, the crops in your fields will be taken to my house when we harvest vegetables this year. I can do anything with my money, and you even bought me an ancestor."

Old Mrs. Miao spoke harshly and hid in the crowd. Jiang Dazhu, who had brought shame upon his mother, now had no way to hide even if he wanted to.

"Aunt, my mother is suffering from hysteria and her mind is confused. Don't bother with her. I'll take her away right now." Jiang Dazhu bowed and nodded to apologize to Old Lady Miao. The Jiang family in Qingshan Village almost have the same ancestor. Jiang Dazhu and Jiang Dahai are relatives within the fifth degree of mourning, so they are more or less related. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration for him to call Miao Sanfeng aunt.

After he finished speaking, he dragged Liu Ermei away, thinking about the delicious food and wine on the table, especially the old turtles. Each one was as big as a small bamboo basket and was boiled in a clay pot. He didn't know how nutritious they were. This was only the tip of the iceberg he saw in the kitchen. He didn't know how many good things were in here. If he missed this meal, he might have to wait for his next life to have this blessing.

The annoying person left, and after listening to Mrs. Miao's explanation, everyone looked at Yu Xiaocao in a more normal way. However, many people were still puzzled by what Liu Ermei had just said, wondering if Yu Xiaocao really fell in love with the grandson of the Jiang family. Therefore, there was still a hint of weirdness in their eyes when they looked at Yu Xiaocao.

Yu Xiaocao was ultimately lacking in self-control and fled in front of everyone's gaze. Of course, she said to others that she was worried about Old Lady Liu and wanted to go home to see her, but everyone could see that she was not being sincere. After all, she had just been tricked by the other party. If she really cared about the other party, she would only be considered stupid.

Yu Xiaocao's running away completely confirmed what Liu Ermei had just said. Many people showed a hint of amusement on their faces. They looked at the Jiang family and then at Yu Xiaocao who had suddenly left. They thought that today they could not only have a good meal but also watch a good show. In the following days, everyone would have no shortage of topics to talk about.

******

Yu Xiaocao hurriedly ran out of Jiang's house. After blowing a lot of cool wind outside the house, she finally sobered up a little. Thinking back to what had just happened, she secretly hated herself for being too impatient. Now, in the eyes of others, she might be considered guilty. She didn't know if they were now talking about her being too ambitious and wanting to eat swan meat.

Yu Xiaocao hated Liu Ermei so much that her teeth itched and she clenched her teeth so tightly that her gums were almost bitten through. If it weren't for them, she and he might have had a chance.

If I could have a background like Ruan Ruan, coupled with my own intelligence, I would definitely be better and more lovable than her.

Everything she had was earned by herself. Only she knew how much suffering and pain she had endured. Why did she have nothing while the other person had so much that she dared not even dream of? God was so unfair.

"Xiao Cao, aren't you going to eat?" Mo Xiangfang was walking towards her from the opposite side, followed by a bunch of little kids, all of whom were children of her brothers. The last one walking at the end, the smallest one, was the son of Mo Xianghong and Rong Jing. He looked thin and small, not very old, but his eyes were extremely gloomy.

"I'm not eating anymore." Yu Xiaocao looked at Mo Xiangfang's cheerful smile and found it dazzling. Thinking of everyone's strange looks just now, while resenting her own fate, she also hated those girls who were happier and more fortunate than her.

When Yu Xiaocao thought of this, she suddenly lowered her head. Her idea was totally wrong. Xiang Fang had helped her so much since she was a child. How could she be jealous of Xiang Fang? Yu Xiaocao clenched her fists tightly and laughed at herself for being so disgusting. No wonder she was not liked by anyone.

"Xiaocao, are you okay?" Mo Xiangfang asked nervously when he saw her pale face.

"It's okay, I just feel a little dizzy. I'll just go back and rest." Looking at the other party's concerned eyes, Yu Xiaocao felt even more despicable. He lowered his head and hurriedly ran away from Mo Xiangfang, wanting to be alone and quiet.
