Chapter 19



"My family makes money every day to support you two, who are just idlers. You can just lie at home and enjoy yourself. Aren't you afraid of feeling guilty?"

Li Chunlan almost laughed out of anger, "Is the six cents that big brother earns a day enough for your family of three to eat?

We are supported by our parents, and our unmarried second and third brothers!"

"What if I'm pregnant? If something happens to the eldest grandson of the Li family, how will you compensate him?"

"Sister-in-law, aren't you afraid of feeling guilty when you say this?

You were only two months pregnant, and you died half a year ago.

You don't have to do any housework, I do it all. I even wash your clothes for you.

When Mai Miao was only five years old, he followed the older kids in the village to pick pigweed and wild vegetables.

Daniu is already 18 years old, and it’s fine if he doesn’t work, but he still skips school every day when he is sent to primary school.”

Zhu Xia was very unconvinced, and her thick lips twitched, "So what!

Mom gave you some money privately all day long, and you ate all the snacks hidden in the house and the good things in the house.

Our Danniu is the eldest grandson, why can’t he eat it? "

"Sister-in-law, believe it or not, mother has never given any of us private subsidies. This candy is not from our family."

"This candy is for Mai Miao!" Jiang Li said loudly.

She took two steps forward, lowered her head and smiled sinisterly at the snot-filled bull.

"Steal my things, and I'll go to school and tell your teacher to have the militia take you away."

Daniu was startled, and the tears that he had been holding back burst out again. He hid behind Zhu Xia and cried loudly, "Mom, I don't want to be taken away!"

"Jiang Li, what do you mean by scaring our Daniu?

You are a person who brings misfortune to your parents. You are so poor that you come to our Li family to get money all day long. The candy you give is definitely not legitimate!"

Jiang Li frowned her delicate eyebrows, "Zhu Xia, do you dare to say this again in front of the captain?

My parents are martyrs recognized by the commune, and I am a martyr's family member. You are tarnishing my reputation and promoting feudal superstition.

As long as I report to the leader, you have to go to the farm!"

Zhu Xia was so frightened that she took several steps back and accidentally stepped on Daniu's foot. She said in panic, "I didn't say that, don't talk nonsense!"

"Hmph, if I hear the words of the Dead Star in the village again, I will blame you for everything."

"I understand." Zhu Xia was anxious and nodded randomly.

She dragged the crying Daniu into the house, but was stopped by Jiang Li, "Daniu ate my candy, pay me a dime!"

Zhu Xia was afraid that she would really go and complain, so she stomped her feet, went into the house and took out a dime.

Jiang Li laughed angrily when she saw the torn bills in her hand. How childish! She even picked the oldest one on purpose.

Li Chunlan wiped Mai Miao's face and helped her change her clothes. Jiang Li gave her two more candies.

Mai Miao grinned heartily with his mouth full of holes, and soon ran out with his friends from the village to go crazy.

"Li Zi, you have changed," Li Chunlan held Jiang Li's hand, her face full of relief.

"Looking at it now, I feel like I am fearless again, just like I was before I went to school. That's great!"

Jiang Li was not timid from the beginning. When her father was still alive, she dared to do anything, such as climbing trees and crossing rivers.

But after Jiang Changsheng passed away, she, as a single parent, was laughed at more often and gradually became depressed.

Li Chunlan has a hot-tempered personality and has always stood up for Jiang Li since she was a child.

Every time he saw Jiang Li crying because of being bullied, he would first rush over and curse at her, and then hug Jiang Li and cry together.

Jiang Li was shocked. Li Chunlan was indeed her original body's best friend. She could tell her character had changed at once.

"Hey, I just can't help being bullied by Wang Juhua and the others.

Originally, I treated them as my family members and thought I could just bear with it.

But I had a high fever a while ago, and no one at home cared about me. They even forced me to work, and I was completely disappointed. ”

Li Chunlan's eyes were red. "It was during those days when I went to my grandmother's house, right? How could your uncle's family be so cruel?

Are they still human beings? They occupied your house, took away the money and things your mother left for you, and yet they still bully you like this. "

After being reminded by Li Chunlan, Jiang Li suddenly remembered some details of the original work.

Xu Shuzhen was crushed by rocks while delivering food. When she was dug out, she was barely alive.

In front of the whole team, she took off the bracelet on her hand and gave it to Jiang Li, and apparently left more than 50 yuan for Jiang Li.

For fear that Jiang Li, a little girl, would take too much money and be targeted by people with bad intentions, the remaining 300 yuan was placed in the secret compartment of Xu Shuzhen's dowry closet in the east room.

Unfortunately, Jiang Li didn't understand what she meant and hasn't taken out the three hundred yuan yet.

Now, Wang Juhua had managed to steal the bracelet.

"I will definitely not let them bully me again in the future, don't worry."

"Sister, there's a big fuss going on at Widow Liu's house in the village, why don't you go and see it?"

Li Shitou, with steam rising from his head, panted and lay on the door frame to gesture. His big toe broke through the upper of his shoe and was exposed outside. "That big white patch, two breasts..."

Before he could finish his words, he was slapped on the back of his head by a palm-leaf fan. Li Youtian glared at him and said, "What nonsense are you talking about in front of your sisters, you little brat! I'm gonna pinch your mouth!"

"Dad! You're scolding me again. I'm not the only one saying this. Everyone says this!"

Li Shitou kicked his feet in anger, but his hand was held by a small hand. Mai Miao called out softly and coquettishly, "Fourth brother! Milk!"

Li Shitou was immediately discouraged. He squatted down and stroked the sparse braid on the top of wheat seedling's head. "What are you talking about, little girl? Be careful or your fourth brother will beat you up!"

"You still say you don't deserve a beating! You've ruined the wheat seedlings!"

After Li Youtian finished speaking, he slapped Shitou again. Li Shitou covered his butt and cried.

Li Youtian looked at Jiang Li with pity, "Lizi, go home quickly, something happened at your house."

After that, he sent the children away and whispered to Jiang Li, "Jiang Hongmei is hanging out with the young man who came to see her yesterday. You should be prepared."

What? Jiang Hongmei and Zhuang Guoliang are having an affair?

Jiang Li stood up, and after the shock she was filled with overwhelming joy.

Okay, Jiang Hongmei is determined to marry Zhuang Guoliang.

Wang Juhua disagreed, so she came up with this desperate method, which even ruined her own reputation.

She never thought about it, being a stepmother, or paying for it, would life be easy?

"Uncle Li, I'll go home and take a look."

Li Chunlan held Jiang Li's hand with heartache. Even if Jiang Li didn't like Zhuang Guoliang, Jiang Hongmei had snatched the person Jiang Li was looking for. Why was she so domineering?

"Xiao Lan, take this money. It's for making clothes. You must accept it, otherwise I won't be able to open the door next time."

Li Chunlan was helpless, but when she noticed the sister-in-law in the west compartment peeking at her, she had no choice but to take the money.

She was afraid that Zhu Xia would see her taking time out to help Li Zi make clothes and gossip about her behind her back, which would make her mother angry.

It's troublesome that the family hasn't been divided. She really doesn't want to live under the same roof with her eldest sister-in-law.
