Chapter 19: We treat you as a human being, can you pretend to be one?
The whole family was speechless, and didn't know how she could have the nerve to say such shameless words.
When Liang Cui was hospitalized, she ran back to her parents' home.
Wen Jiu ran back and forth for Liang Cui and finally fainted in the hospital.
Is it too much to give her some lily porridge?
Besides, it's not like she hasn't tried it before. Two years ago, she said her mother found a folk remedy for her, which used lilies as a medicine and could help her get pregnant after taking it for three months. Lu Hongjun and Liang Cui dug in the mountains for half a month and dug up all the lilies on the nearby mountains. She went through a lot of trouble in those years, but no one said anything. In the end, she was relieved after a check-up in the hospital found that she had a defect and couldn't get pregnant.
The Lu family members were all aware of her character. The more people paid attention to her, the more aggressive she became. So they all just focused on their meals and ignored her.
But Lu Beiye couldn't bear it.
He said calmly, "What's wrong with mom giving my wife some lily porridge?"
"Have you eaten yours?"
“Did you plant it?”
"She came back in time when my mother was sick and took her to the hospital for treatment. She fainted in the hospital from exhaustion from taking care of her."
"Where do you think Mom is biased?"
"Can you do this?"
Qi Lianhua yelled unconvinced, "If she took me to the hospital, I would definitely be able to do it. How could I be worse than her?"
Wen Jiu smiled and said, "Second sister-in-law, there is a saying that goes "talk is better than action". You have to take action to make me willingly admit defeat and admit that you are better than me."
"Mom has just been discharged from the hospital and her body hasn't recovered yet. The doctor said she needs to rest well. Why don't you take over Mom's work and take care of her daily life at the same time?"
"What do you think?"
"Is that enough for you?"
Qi Lianhua is so lazy that she would never be willing to take the initiative to do the work for herself.
Hearing this, he started to scatter.
"Are you trying to tire me to death? I have so much work to do every day. If I also do all the work that my mother has to do, how can I survive?"
"What if you fainted?"
"You're fine now, aren't you? Maybe you're just pretending to be so arrogant and domineering in our house."
Liang Cui angrily said, "Pretend! Do you think everyone loves to pretend like you?"
"I asked you to work in the fields but you said your stomach hurt. I asked you to wash clothes but you said your waist hurt. I asked you to cook but you said your chest hurt when you smelled cigarettes. You complained about pains here and there every day, and you ate so much that you became so fat that you could crush a camel to death."
"You can't do anything right, and you talk too much bullshit!"
"Go ask around, which family would tolerate a daughter-in-law like you who can't have children and is lazy and always looking for trouble?"
"We treat you as a human being, but can you act like one?"
Hearing Liang Cui's words, Wen Jiu almost couldn't help laughing out loud. She hadn't expected that her mother-in-law's ability to scold people was so strong.
Qi Lianhua's face looked like a palette. She opened her mouth for a long time but couldn't utter a word. In the end, she could only hold her breath and attack the food on the table. In the end, her stomach was so bloated that she couldn't stand up. She looked at the helpless looks of the crowd and smiled smugly.
Wenjiu rolled his eyes secretly and said, "Why don't I just beat you to death?"
Unexpectedly, Qi Lianhua saw it.
She growled, "Are you cursing me by rolling your eyes at me?"
Wen Jiu smiled and said, "If rolling my eyes could curse you, you would probably be poked into a wasp's nest by my eyes now."
Qi Lianhua was furious, "You..."
She didn't expect Wenjiu to be so frank and say such things in front of her.
"Oh, by the way, while everyone is here, I'll go get the gifts I bought for everyone." Wen Jiu said as he pulled Lu Beiye towards the room.
As she was packing her things, she asked, "I saw you talking to our dad over there. Dad didn't look very well. Did you find the person who stole the letter?"
"It's my second sister-in-law, right?"
She could sense that Lu Beiye and Lu Hongjun's attitude towards Qi Lianhua had changed significantly.
Lu Beiye did not hide it either. "Yes, it is basically certain that she and her brother did it, but we have no evidence. If we tell her out loud, she will definitely not admit it, which is also troublesome. It will also affect my mother's mood while she is recovering from her illness. So my father and I decided to keep it a secret for now and wait until next month to catch the thief at the post office. This is also a good time for my second brother to think it over."
"Don't let anything slip."
He gave some worried reminders.
Wen Jiu nodded, "Don't worry!"
She will annoy Qi Lianhua.
Is it worthy for Qi Lianhua to use the money that Lu Beiye earned with his blood and sweat?
The two of them took the gifts to the main hall, warmed the wine, and distributed the gifts to everyone one by one.
"Dad, this is the tea I bought for you."
"Mom, this is the cloth I bought for you, as well as red dates and brown sugar, to replenish your qi and blood."
"Big Brother and Second Brother, these are the cigarettes and shirts I bought for you."
"Sister-in-law, here are the floral cloth and facial oil I bought for you."
"Qingqing, this is for you."
"Xiaoyu and Xiaoxue, this is for you. The pencil case also contains pencils, erasers, and exercise books. Study hard!"
The gifts were not expensive, but they were carefully selected by Wenjiu.
Liang Cui scolded, "You kid, you and I spent all our money on my treatment, why did you buy so many gifts? We have food and drink at home and we don't lack anything."
Lu Hongjun also said: "Yes! The tea should be expensive, right?"
Wen Jiu smiled and said, "It's not expensive. Ah Ye and I rarely go home, so you should let me show my filial piety to you, right?"
"Besides, my eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, and second brother Qingqing have been taking care of them at home these years. I have never met Xiaoyu and Xiaoxue. As an aunt, it is my duty to bring them some gifts."
She avoided mentioning Qi Lianhua in every word, as if Qi Lianhua didn't exist at all.
Even the most honest and dull Lu Dongyang could tell that Wen Jiu didn't like her.
This made Qi Lianhua even more angry.
She said angrily, "Wenjiu, what are you targeting me for? It's ok that you brought gifts but mine is missing, but you are also being so treacherous. Are you deliberately trying to break up the Lu family?"
Wen Jiu laughed after hearing this and said, "Targeting you? Who was targeting whom first? It's my freedom to give gifts to whoever I want. Why should I give gifts to someone who dislikes me?"
"Besides, if I roll my eyes you'll say I'm cursing you. If I give you a gift, do you dare to eat it or use it?"
"I don't give it to you just to save you from refusing. Do you think I'm right?"
“You, you, you…”
What she said was well-reasoned and made Qi Lianhua so angry that she almost burst out laughing.
"What about me?" Wen Jiu smiled sweetly, "I know I am considerate, but there is no need for you to be so excited."
Considerate?
He is indeed very understanding.
The whole family couldn't help but want to laugh, even Lu Beiye's eyes were filled with smiles. He had never seen anyone who was so good at "talking".
"You little slut!"
"I'm going to fight you. I'm going to tear your lying mouth to pieces—"
Qi Lianhua was so angry that she struggled to get up and wanted to go get some warm wine.
