Chapter 48
Zhao Guifen gave each of them two cakes and a bowl of soup, and muttered with a dark face: "This family looks like a lot of people, capable of working. But look, everyone eats a lot. Go out and ask around, which family can eat as much as we do every day and still give you a full meal?
Especially the one who doesn’t work…”
As she spoke, she looked at Bai Xiu Xiu.
You can't do anything to your eldest daughter-in-law, but it's good to say a few more insults to her!
Bai Xiuxiu glanced at her and was not used to her: "Mom, what you said makes sense. There are indeed not many families like ours. There is not a drop of oil on the dining table. Our family earns so many work points, but my husband does the work of me and him alone.
I really don’t know where our family’s money has gone!
Maybe someone is not good at arithmetic and can't do the math.
All the money in the house has been lost! How about getting someone else to manage the accounts?"
Zhao Guifen tore the cake in her hand into two pieces and threw it into the bowl in a rage: "What? You still want to be the boss? Do you think I'm dead?"
"Huh? Mom, why are you angry? Am I not just following your words and speaking for you?" Bai Xiu Xiu looked innocent.
She had heard these hurtful words many times in her life.
But at that time I thought that he didn't really hit her, so I just listened to it.
She has nothing to lose.
But now... no matter whether it's the loss in her mouth or in life, she doesn't want to eat it!
No one gets used to Zhao Guifen!
Zhao Guifen felt that her eldest daughter-in-law made her angry every day: "Are you speaking for me? Do you know how to speak?"
"Didn't you say it yourself? There are many people working at home, but there are even more people eating. It seems that we can't make ends meet. Since we don't understand the accounts, we must find someone who can make a good living to do the accounting. Otherwise, we will be starving to death at the dinner table without any oil or water every day."
Bai Xiu Xiu spoke with confidence.
Zhao Guifen's red face.
Zhao Cuihua swallowed the coarse grain cake in her mouth, and thought to herself that she was now her sister-in-law's person, so she immediately took over the conversation: "Mom, what your sister-in-law said is right. Look at what we have eaten these two days... I think what the pigs in our village eat is not much worse than what we eat.
Although the work in the fields is done, everyone at home is busy.
Do you intend to starve all five of your sons to death this winter?"
"Bah! Stop making trouble here, you two! Which one of you is starving? The family doesn't plan for food and just gives it all to you. How can we live?" Zhao Guifen couldn't bear it any longer and started swearing.
He wanted to say a few more words, but was interrupted by Wang Shoucheng: "Enough, you're making a fuss so early in the morning? It's really a bit too much. At least there should be some benefits. Boss, you should catch more prey today.
Our family will also improve.”
Wang Shoucheng immediately pointed the finger at Wang Qinghe.
Upon hearing this, Bai Xiu Xiu turned around and winked at her man.
Wang Qinghe knew what she meant. This meant that he was not allowed to bring back any prey tonight...
He had a plan in mind, and his attitude was very good: "Okay, but the food at home is really not nutritious. Xiuxiu is still sick, so let mom steam an egg for her first. Once she is well, I will feel at ease when I go to the mountains.
Otherwise, I would be really worried about her and would not dare to go into the mountains."
"What? What conditions? Let her, who does no work, eat eggs?" Zhao Guifen almost jumped up when she heard that her eggs were going to be touched.
"Okay, what are you shouting for? Second wife, go and make steamed eggs for your eldest sister-in-law." Wang Shoucheng's ears hurt from the old woman's shouting.
This idiot, didn’t he understand what the boss meant?
If he doesn't make a steamed egg for his eldest daughter-in-law, he will quit his job today!
What bad luck!
It was early in the morning and I couldn't argue with them, so I had to make such a fuss.
What else can a mother-in-law do if she can't even control her daughter-in-law?
Liu Xiao'e was stunned when she heard this. She hadn't even taken two bites of her meal, and this mess had already happened to her! And what was the basis for this?
How come only my sister-in-law can eat so well?
Wang Shoucheng looked at the room full of people who looked reluctant and felt satisfied.
It has to be this way, so that the other sons will have a prejudice against the eldest son and can unite as one!
"Don't think that I, as a father, am biased. Your eldest brother works hard for the family. If you were good at hunting, I would have someone make steamed eggs for you. He earned this through his own skills!"
Wang Shoucheng's words immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the other people.
Liu Xiao'e went to steam the eggs with a gloomy face.
Bai Xiu Xiu glanced at her father-in-law and wanted to laugh.
These parents-in-law are really not sparing any effort to set a trap for her man.
If I didn't know their selfish nature of harming others for their own benefit, I would be unlikely to raise children for other people.
She began to doubt whether her husband was their biological son.
The stove was still on fire, and soon the egg custard was served. Two eggs made a lot of egg custard, and the aroma immediately attracted everyone's attention!
Zhao Guifen's chopsticks were about to break. Why was this good thing given to the eldest brother and his wife?
Are they worthy?
It would be great if this was given to the second or fifth child and let them raise it.
Compared to Zhao Guifen, there is another person who is the most angry, and that is Zhou Jiaojiao.
When Zhou Jiaojiao smelled the scent, all the grievances in her heart came up.
She had never received such treatment in her mother's family before! What did Bai Xiuxiu rely on? She was a poor bastard who had no father and no mother!
Although Bai Xiu Xiu didn't know what these people were thinking, she could guess it by looking at their faces.
But she doesn't care. She doesn't need to maintain a good reputation among these people!
As long as Wang Qinghe and I can get back some benefits, that's enough.
Staring at these people's eyes, Bai Xiu Xiu divided the egg custard into four portions, one portion each for her, Wang Qinghe, and the two children.
Zhao Guifen stared at the bowl so hard that it almost pierced through it, but she didn't even wait for her eldest daughter-in-law to give way to her.
I cursed a lot in my heart!
Wang Shoucheng was afraid that the old woman would make trouble again, so he quickly said, "Okay, let's eat. After eating, we still have to work."
After the family had breakfast, those who needed to go up the mountain and those who needed to do work started off.
While her mother-in-law took her second sister-in-law to the kitchen to plan what to cook for lunch, Zhao Cuihua hurried to Bai Xiuxiu's place.
"Sister-in-law... before us?"
"I checked the price yesterday. When my husband is free in two days, I will let you know when I sell it." Bai Xiuxiu knew what she meant. This ginseng is not a small thing. None of the things these days are as valuable as it. It would be strange if Zhao Cuihua was not worried!
Zhao Cuihua was delighted when she heard this, and then she talked about another thing: "Sister-in-law, last night I saw the fifth daughter-in-law sneaking out of the house, and I followed her out. Not long after I walked, I saw her third sister-in-law from her mother's family waiting for her at the end of our alley..."
