After dinner, Li Qiulan and Bai Jiansheng hurried to work. Before leaving, they specifically asked Bai Ruoxin to take care of Bai Ruozhen and cook an egg for her at noon.
This made Bai Ruoxin very angry, "Mom, why are you so partial? Last time I had a fever, you didn't even tell me to eat an egg."
"You dare to talk back? Wait until I get back to deal with you." Li Qiulan was in a hurry to go to work and didn't bother to pay attention to her eldest daughter who was always nitpicking. She turned around and instructed Bai Liqiang, "Liqiang, remember to boil eggs for your second sister."
"Okay, I remember." Bai Liqiang agreed very readily, "Can you cook two so I can eat one?"
Li Qiulan gave him a displeased look and said, "Why did you eat it? It's a waste." Then she left.
"Biased." Bai Liqiang curled his lips.
Bai Ruoxin responded angrily, "You've been biased for a long time."
Bai Liqiang said nothing, but he agreed with this in his heart.
The two of them were so jealous that their intestines were about to sore, but Bai Ruozhen still sat there obediently, not saying a word and not caring at all. He pretended not to hear what the bad brother and sister said.
Bai Ruoxin glared at Bai Ruozhen, then she carried an army green bag, got dressed, and left. Bai Liqiang disappeared after dinner and no one knew where he went.
Only Bai Ruozhen, Bai Ruoyun and Bai Lishan were left.
Bai Ruoyun didn't like her because of the rice porridge incident, so she went to play outside. Bai Lishan dragged a stool and sat by the window to read.
Bai Ruozhen touched his slightly deflated belly and sighed. Forget it, just go to sleep. I won’t be hungry when I fall asleep.
Bai Ruozhen drifted off to sleep, and it seemed as if she had returned to Fengxiang Palace, where she lived. As she entered, she found the entire palace quiet, with the palace maids and nurses nowhere to be seen. The closer she got to the bedroom, the more excited she became. Then, she heard a voice shouting in surprise, "The Queen is moving! The Queen is moving!"
Bai Ruozhen recognized Xiaoli's voice and wanted to call her but couldn't make a sound, which made her very anxious.
Just as she was about to get closer, she suddenly felt a strong force pushing her back.
Bai Ruozhen opened his eyes and saw the broken roof covered with spider webs. Outside, he could hear two little kids talking, their chattering was very noisy.
At noon, Bai Ruoxin finally came back and was making lunch outside. She scolded Bai Ruoyun while cooking, and occasionally scolded Bai Ruozhen. Bai Ruozhen pretended not to hear, covered his ears and counted to 500. Bai Ruoxin finally finished cooking.
The lunch was obviously not as high-quality as the breakfast. There was not even the boiled egg that Li Qiulan had asked for. Bai Ruozhen couldn't help but ask, "Sister, Mom asked you to boil an egg for me. Where is the egg?"
Bai Ruoxin exploded when she heard this. She glared at Bai Ruozhen and yelled, "You're still eating eggs? You don't deserve to eat eggs. Don't you even look at what kind of eggs you have? Do you think you can eat eggs?"
"Anyway, she's prettier than you." Bai Ruozhen glanced at Bai Ruoxin and lowered his head in grievance.
"Bullshit." Bai Ruoxin became even angrier. The biggest reason why she hated Bai Ruozhen was that Bai Ruozhen looked better and was more likable than her.
"Hey, you're rebelling." Bai Ruoxin raised her hand to hit her, but Bai Ruzhen looked up at her stubbornly, her eyes cold and without any trace of grievance. "Big sister, if you have the guts, hit me in the face, hit me hard."
Bai Liqiang came in from outside and hurried to break up the fight, "Big sister, big sister, calm down." Then he looked at Bai Ruozhen with a look of disapproval and said, "Second sister, you too, can't you say a few words less?"
Bai Ruozhen snorted softly and looked at him aggrievedly, "Mom told you to cook for me."
"Haha." Bai Liqiang laughed awkwardly, "How can we have eggs at home? Mom must have remembered it wrongly. We've run out of eggs for a long time."
Bai Ruozhen didn't believe a single word of his lies. She wanted to go and see if there were any eggs, but she felt that doing so was useless, so she gave up the idea.
In the end, Bai Ruozhen could only eat the same corn porridge as them. The pickles that she once hated the most have now become a delicacy, and she can’t get them if she is a little slow.
Bai Ruozhen burst into tears as she ate the corn paste that hurt her throat. It was so disgusting that she wanted to eat bird's nest soup.
Bai Ruoxin saw her secretly crying, rolled her eyes and sneered, "The lady's body is the maid's life, and you think you are the queen. I give you a basin of meat, but you won't eat it."
Bai Ruozhen nodded hurriedly, "Food." Besides, she was the queen, so it was really unfair to her to come here.
"Eat shit," Bai Ruoxin gave her a mocking look, "It's good enough to have pickles, but you're still eating meat? Go chew your own thigh."
Bai Ruozhen's bright eyes dimmed and he shut up immediately. With Bai Ruoxin's bad mouth, she deserved not to get married, and should eat coarse food every day until her throat was bleeding.
Bai Ruozhen thought about it for a while, and when he picked up some pickles, he found that they were gone.
Mom, your daughter can’t even eat pickles now. How pitiful.
In the evening, Li Qiulan and her husband came back and brought back a pound of noodles. In the end, they cooked a little of the noodles and brought them all to Bai Ruozhen.
"Mom, why are you so partial?" Bai Ruoxin looked at the noodles angrily, and the corn paste in her mouth didn't taste good anymore.
Li Qiulan glared at her, "How come you don't know what happened when she fell?"
Bai Ruoxin exploded upon hearing this and stood up. "I know what happened. It's okay if she dropped something, but she dropped some food. She ruined half a month's worth of food for our family. I can't say a word about it."
This younger sister has been fighting with her since she was a child. Why doesn’t she fall to death? So be it.
"How dare you say that? If you hadn't provoked her, how could she have fallen?" Li Qiulan angrily pointed at Bai Ruoxin with a spoon, "You two went to buy food together, and as the elder sister, why didn't you offer to help your younger sister? You let her carry dozens of kilograms of food?"
