As Zhang Aiai spoke, her envious gaze kept sweeping around, and Song Lili saw it all without reservation.
Song Lili just smiled and didn't reply. Of course this place is nice. She put a lot of thought into decorating the house. Even people who have seen good things would think this place is very nice, let alone Zhang Aiai.
"Sister-in-law, I didn't expect you to be living such a good life." Zhang Aiai said, looking at Song Lili.
Song Lili lowered her head and washed the dishes carefully. "It's alright, that's how it is in the capital. You can't live like a country bumpkin, can you?"
"Besides, your older brother has a job, and so do I. We can manage to make ends meet for our family."
"This is already very good in my opinion. It's like a dream come true. I never thought I would actually see it."
Zhang Aiai was also excited, and she even had an idea.
"Alright, I can rinse the rest with water. I can do it by myself. You go and keep Dad company." Zhang Aiai interrupted Zhang Aiai, who was about to say something, and looked at her calmly.
"Didn't you say you were going to visit Dad? He hasn't seen you in so long and misses you a lot. Go and have a good talk with him to put his mind at ease."
As for what Zhang Aiai was going to say next, Song Lili had no interest in listening and did not want to listen.
She keeps repeating the same things over and over, and they're not even nice to hear. Why does she have to torture her own ears?
It's better to keep things quiet. If you have any problems, go find Zhang Qinghua.
"Oh, okay, I... I'll go right away." Zhang Aiai's face was stiff before she went out.
She was stumped by Song Lili's question and felt a little guilty.
She came under the guise of visiting Zhang Shengtian, but when she clung to Song Lili, a single look from Song Lili made her immediately feel guilty.
Not daring to stay there any longer, he left the kitchen and sat in the yard, listening to Song Yongren and Zhang Shengtian talking.
Seeing Zhang Aiai come out, Song Fang strolled into the kitchen. "Sister, what did she say just now? She didn't make any unreasonable demands, did she?"
Song Lili smiled slightly, "No, she just said that this place is very nice, and the life we live is what she has always dreamed of."
"So what? Even if it's what she dreams of, it's something you worked hard to earn, sister. What does it have to do with her?"
"Sis, whatever she asks for, you must not agree to it. Let her go back in a few days, otherwise she will always cause you trouble."
Just from what happened, you can tell that with this family here, things will definitely not be peaceful; my sister has a lot of worries.
Song Fang's words amused Song Lili: "Don't worry, when have you ever seen me being easy to talk to?"
She only tolerates things a little; if it goes too far, she will always retaliate.
Song Fang thought about it and realized that it really didn't, so she was relieved. "Then I'm relieved."
"Alright, go out now. I'll wash some fruit and bring it out in a bit." Song Lili didn't want to discuss these things.
After Song Fang left, Song Lili took out the fruit she had bought a couple of days ago, washed a plate of it, and then brought it out.
"Everyone come and have some fruit." She had just counted, making sure everyone would have one.
Everyone took one, leaving two or three left. Then, something astonishing happened.
Fang Xiaotao quickly put what she was holding into her mouth, but her eyes were fixed on the other items on the plate, as if she wanted to pounce on them.
Everyone else had only taken a couple of bites when she finished one. To be precise, she took a bite around the center, and while the sweetness was still in her mouth, she threw it away and reached for another one.
The way this starving ghost was reincarnated is truly eye-catching, and... disgusting.
Song Lili lowered her head, ignoring it. Their real parents were all there; it wasn't her turn.
They ate the fruit slowly, waiting to see how things would unfold.
Like Song Lili, Song Fang's eyes darted around, but she sat calmly without saying a word, as if she hadn't seen anything.
They were able to remain calm, but Zhang Qinghua and Zhang Shengtian were definitely not; their faces turned ashen.
Zhang Qinghua gripped Fang Xiaotao's hand tightly, the hand holding the fruit, so tightly that it hurt Fang Xiaotao.
“Pick it up…” He looked at Fang Xiaotao, his eyes filled with coldness, oppression, and even deep anger.
"Uncle, it hurts..." Fang Xiaotao said with tears in her eyes, but Zhang Qinghua remained unmoved.
"Pick it up, wash it, and give it to me to eat." Who gave me this bad habit? Is this how food is wasted?
You don't have the family background of a young lady, but you expect her manners? Don't you even know if you can handle it?
Even though Lili is good at making money, her children don't waste food like that. On the contrary, they all know to save food and not waste it.
Unexpectedly, I saw it here with Fang Xiaotao today.
“Pick it up and eat it. I don’t care what you were like before. You have to follow my rules here.”
Zhang Qinghua had originally thought that even if they went too far, he would tolerate it, as it wasn't the first day and he shouldn't lose his temper.
But Fang Xiaotao's behavior was simply too much, and he couldn't tolerate it at all.
"It hurts..." Fang Xiaotao was already crying, crying from the pain, and Zhang Qinghua had snatched the fruit from her hand.
“Pick it up.” Zhang Qinghua looked at her, exuding a sense of oppression and an aura that was frightening.
Fang Xiaotao was already somewhat afraid of Zhang Qinghua, and now seeing his fierce and menacing appearance, she was even more frightened.
Although I didn't want to, I still squatted down and picked up the fruit I had just thrown away.
"There's water in the kitchen. Wash it clean and finish it. Don't waste food anymore, or you won't get to eat at all." This habit must be corrected, or what will become of him in the future?
"Okay," Fang Xiaotao said, holding back her tears. She picked up the item with a wronged expression, glanced at her parents, then at Song Lili, before heading to the kitchen.
Song Lili pretended she didn't see it; Zhang Qinghua was disciplining the child, and she wouldn't interrupt.
Fang Xiaotao washed herself clean and ate the food under Zhang Qinghua's watchful eye. Only then did Zhang Qinghua let her go.
But this commotion made the atmosphere a bit awkward.
"Uncle, I'm taking the children home. Chu Ci will be back soon. I'm going to cook." Song Fang called the children and was about to leave.
The current situation is really not suitable for her to stay here. If she continues to watch, Zhang Shengtian and Zhang Qinghua will probably lose all face.
"Dafa, I've already prepared rooms for you and Xia Jun. You two must be tired from the journey, go and get some sleep." Song Lili also sent Song Yongren and Xia Jun away.
"Okay, I'm really tired, let's go take a nap." Song Yongren stood up and yawned.
"Alright, my dear in-laws, go and rest. I'll call you when it's time for dinner." Zhang Shengtian forced a smile, but it looked particularly awkward.
Song Fang left, and Song Yongren and Song Lili went back to their room to sleep. Song Lili also cleared the plates off the table and went back to her room.
She didn't seem quite right for herself to be there.
