I don’t care, I don’t care! I want to eat peach cakes!”
"I want to eat it too! I want to eat it too! Mom, I want to eat peach cake!"
"You two, listen up! Those peach cakes are not ours! Mom doesn't have the money to buy them for you, can't you just be patient?" Huang Xiuxiu's tears came immediately. She took out a handkerchief from her pocket and sobbed, "Your damn father passed away a long time ago, leaving us orphans and widows. Why is life so difficult for us?"
Seeing this, Hu Jingjing didn't dare stay outside and hurried into the house.
"Jingjing." Ye Li called her, "Look at how hard it is for Sister Li and the two children. Can you please have some pity on the two children?"
Aunt Jiang quickly interrupted and said, "Yes, yes, why don't you just take out two pieces to satisfy the children's cravings?"
How could Hu Jingjing be willing to do that?
This peach cake is so expensive, she has to buy two boxes and eat them secretly for a long time!
Even Jiang Xi was reluctant to give him two pieces, let alone those two naughty kids!
...
...
She wouldn't do that!
Seeing Hu Jingjing was about to close the door and go into the house, the two children started crying loudly: "We want to eat peach cakes! We want to eat peach cakes!"
Ye Li curled his lips and said, "Jingjing, what are you doing? Why don't you give the children a piece? Are you going to let the two children hold your thighs and beg you?"
Her words reminded Huang Xiuxiu.
She quietly pushed the two children behind her.
So, Chengcai and Dongliang ran towards Hu Jingjing.
A man hugged Hu Jingjing with his thigh and refused to let her move no matter what.
"Aunt Hu, please, I want to eat peach cakes!"
"Aunt Hu, you have so many peach cakes, please give me one!"
The two children, who were just playing with urine and mud, rushed over with their hands full of mud and hugged her.
The new pants she had just cut a few days ago were covered with urine mud. Hu Jingjing screamed in anger: "Ah - let go! Let me go!"
The more she shouted, the tighter the two children hugged her, fearing that she would run away and not give them the peaches.
Her shout startled everyone who was eating in the room.
Wang Sha wanted to go out to watch the fun, but was stopped by her own man, Jiang Rui.
"What are you going to do?"
"Let me take a look." Wang Sha stood on tiptoe and looked outside, wanting to see what was going on in the yard.
Jiang Rui grabbed her arm and said, "Don't go! Didn't you hear people yelling 'Taosu Taosu' outside? It must be those two kids from Huang Xiuxiu's family asking for food again! If you go, someone will catch you again!"
Wang Sha felt that what her husband said made sense, but her heart was in turmoil and she couldn't help but want to go outside to take a look.
"If you want to watch the fun, just watch from inside the house." Jiang Rui said.
"Okay then." Wang Sha leaned against the window and looked out.
People from other families were also watching the excitement from the windows, and no one dared to go out easily, for fear of being dragged in.
This young widow and her two sons were not to be touched at all.
Zhao Xingmei was also watching the fun in the house, but Jiang Jingshan urged her to go out and help his daughter-in-law.
"No." Zhao Xingmei refused. "It's her own fault! She helped outsiders to cheat her family, and now she has suffered a loss. Let her learn a lesson!"
Hu Jingjing couldn't get away, and angrily shouted at Huang Xiuxiu: "Control your two sons! They keep asking for peach cakes! These peach cakes are so expensive, I can't even bear to eat them, how can I just give them to others?"
Huang Xiuxiu was so angry that she burst into tears. She cried like a pear blossom in the rain: "To be a successful person, to be a pillar of society, people don't give us food. We should be more ambitious so that others can take it! Otherwise, people will despise us!"
"No! I want to eat the peach cake!" Dongliang refused to let go.
The two of them had tasted the sweetness and knew that their mother was just talking and would not do anything to them at all.
"Li Guo! You short-lived wretch! Look at what kind of life we, an orphan and a widow, are living. Have pity on us..." Huang Xiuxiu started to cry and make a fuss.
Ye Li curled the corners of her mouth. The conflict was successfully transferred to Hu Jingjing. She had nothing to do here, so she prepared to sneak away.
So, she pushed Jiang Xun and left the scene while everyone's attention was on Huang Xiuxiu and Hu Jingjing.
As soon as he entered, Ye Li locked the door and pulled the curtains.
"That was a close call." She breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Jiang Xun and said, "Let me make it clear first. From now on, you are not allowed to give food to those two naughty kids in Huang Xiuxiu's family! You are not allowed to give anything at all! Also, stay away from Huang Xiuxiu! The farther the better!"
Jiang Xun looked wronged: "I didn't intend to get close to her!"
There's always a lot of gossip around this widow, he doesn't even have time to go around her, so how could he go in front of her!
"You are not allowed to give them the food either." Ye Li knew that Jiang Xun had helped those two naughty kids before, so he repeatedly warned them not to give them any more.
These two little ungrateful bastards will repay kindness with enmity when they grow up. It’s better to stay away from them!
"Okay." Jiang Xun said with a smile, "I'll listen to Li Li."
"Wait a moment, when the hustle and bustle here is over, I'll go cook egg noodles for you." Ye Li said with a smile.
In the yard.
The fun was still going on. Hu Jingjing said she would not give anything to them, but the two children kept hugging her and refused to let go.
Aunt Jiang was watching the fun and didn't mind the big deal: "Jingjing, look at these two kids clinging to your thighs and begging you. Xiuxiu has said so much, why don't you give them anything? Are we so hard-hearted?"
"Aunt Jiang, if you want to give it to me, I won't give it to you anyway!"
"Or you'd say you're heartless!" Aunt Jiang continued to make sarcastic remarks, "I don't have it. If I did, I would definitely give it to you without you even asking! Look at the girls and wives in our courtyard. Who is like you? You only know how to fix your face. I think you should fix your heart the most!"
Niu Dazhi chuckled twice, and then followed up with a few words: "That face won't get any better no matter how much you try to fix it! Look at the one with the eyebrows and lips drawn on, she's not as pretty as Jiang Xun's wife! She's far worse than her!"
His words really hit Hu Jingjing in the lungs.
What she can't tolerate the most is others saying that she is not pretty!
"Niu Dazhi! What are you talking about? I'm not good-looking, but you're always following me around, with those rat eyes of yours, trying to take advantage of me!" Hu Jingjing yelled.
Aunt Jiang was not happy with her scolding.
"Who the hell is your mother? Who the hell is your mother? Your mouth stinks because you ate shit! Stop ruining my son's reputation! You are so ugly that my son feels sick when he looks at you for one more second. He has nightmares about you for several nights! Who wants to follow you around? Who do you think you are?"
Hu Jingjing was so angry that she was fuming after being scolded by the old lady.
"You old thing! Who are you calling disgusting? Who are you calling disgusting!"
"I'm scolding you! I'm scolding you, you little bastard with no self-awareness! What kind of person is it to take a piss and look at yourself?"
"I can't stand it anymore!" Hu Jingjing was furious and was about to rush over to curse at Aunt Jiang.
However, unexpectedly, there was a baby hanging on one of the legs.
She got angry and pointed at the two kids' faces and shouted, "Let them go! Let them go!"
"No loosening!"
"I want to eat peach cakes! If you don't give me peach cakes, I won't let go!"
Seeing that the two little guys didn't know what was good for them, Hu Jingjing felt so angry that her blood rushed to her head.
She rolled up her sleeves and cursed through gritted teeth: "Okay, then I won't be polite! You two little bastards!"
After saying that, she twisted the ear of a naughty kid with one hand and pulled him up.
The two naughty kids burst into tears and loosened their hands.
Hu Jingjing rushed forward with great momentum.
"Hu Jingjing! How dare you bully my son!" Huang Xiuxiu saw that her son was wronged, and she screamed heartbreakingly and rushed towards her.
