Xiaoqin's Housework
The heat of July. The blazing sun spit out flames that licked her arm heavily, causing her arm to feel burning pain. Hu Yufeng's anger also rose rapidly.
It was difficult to store tofu for a long time in hot weather, so Yang Xiu came up with a solution: drying the tofu. She had seen her grandmother make it. The tofu was cut into slices about half a centimeter thick, spread with salt and dried. It could be stored for more than half a year.
Hu Yufeng was cutting tofu with Yang Xiu when they heard crying sounds coming from far away.
She looked up and saw that it was her own daughter. I was still wondering in my heart, and when I got closer I found that her cheeks were red and swollen, and her big eyes were swollen like walnuts.
When she saw Hu Yufeng, Qin Xiaoqin cried even more breathlessly.
Hu Yufeng hurriedly grabbed her and asked anxiously: "What's the matter? Did you quarrel with Yang Xu or something happened? Why are you crying like this..." She felt a little distressed. Her daughter was a strong-willed person. She cried like this, which showed that she had suffered a great injustice!
Qin Xiaoqin didn't say anything and just cried, which made Hu Yufeng anxious.
"What's wrong? Why are you talking? People who are crying are panicking..."
Seeing that Qin Xiaoqin was crying and still secretly glancing at him, Yang Xiu tactfully walked away under the pretext of going out to get some water.
Sure enough, the crying in the room became quieter and intermittent voices were heard.
"He dares, who does Yang Huzi think he is..." Hu Yufeng's angry voice came from the room.
Qin Xiaoqin's sobbing suddenly became louder.
Without waiting for dinner, Hu Yufeng asked Qin Yu to find Qin Wenli.
Qin Wenli came back quickly and was surprised to see his sister, wondering if the couple had had a fight.
When Hu Yufeng saw him sit down, she said, "Yang Huzi beat Xiaoqin..." When she mentioned this, Hu Yufeng was filled with anger again.
Qin Wenli turned around in surprise when he heard this.
"The Yang family is so powerful. No matter how bad Xiaoqin is, it shouldn't be her father-in-law who teaches her a lesson. Who the hell is Yang Huzi? How dare he lay hands on his daughter-in-law..." Hu Yu
Feng was extremely angry.
Qin Wenli came back to his senses from the shock. Seeing his sister crying and his mother not saying what was going on, he had no choice but to ask, "What's the matter? Although my uncle Huzi is irritable, he is not an unreasonable person."
Qin Xiaoqin stopped crying, but Hu Yufeng was still furious: "Why can't an old man like him beat his daughter-in-law? He hit her in the face. Pack up and let's go to the Yang family. I want to ask how serious a crime my daughter from the Qin family has committed."
Qin Wenli also found it ridiculous when he first heard it. How could a father-in-law beat his daughter-in-law? However, he knew that once his sister opened her mouth, he thought of asking for clarification, but it was obvious that his mother was still angry. But if they go there rashly without understanding the situation, they will be caught out by the Yang family, and the Qin family will also be embarrassed.
He had no choice but to patiently explain this principle to the mother and daughter.
Hu Yufeng gradually regained her senses after hearing this. She calmed down her anger and asked her daughter, "You only said that Yang Huzi beat you, but what was the reason for that? Besides, Yang Xu didn't get involved in the beating?"
Qin Xiaoqin cursed: "Yang Xu dare not say a word in front of his father. What a coward, a bad guy, and a bunch of bad people. He is so stupid that he only knows how to assign me orders..."
Qin Wenli frowned when he heard this: "Just talk about the matter. Uncle Huzi is still an elder no matter what..."
"Elder, he is a despicable elder. I married him for his son, not for myself. How dare you, such a shameless old man, hit me..." Qin Xiaoqin became more and more excited as she cursed.
Hu Yufeng listened to her daughter's scolding becoming more and more outrageous, frowned and held back her anger: "Okay, just tell me what's wrong..."
Qin Xiaoqin then said, "He came back to eat in the morning, and I brought the food to the table. He complained that I put the bowl too heavy. His wife is so annoying, and it's useless. She only wants me to be a farmhand, and I dare not get angry?"
Qin Wenli asked: "Is it just for this? What else did you say?"
"So what if I put it too heavy? Damn, he just loves to eat. Am I the only one in the family who has no hands? Otherwise, I would have fed it directly into his mouth. He stood up and hit me... wuwuwuwu..." Qin Xiaoqin was overwhelmed with grief and started crying again, not realizing that there was anything wrong with her words.
Instead, Hu Yufeng and Qin Wenli fell silent upon hearing this. That is to say, Yang Huzi still has a good temper and only slapped him twice, Qin Wenli thought.
"How dare you? I'm asking you, he's your elder. You must have been eaten by a dog to curse him like that. I think your father-in-law will not give you a light punishment..." Hu Yufeng was shaking with anger.
Qin Xiaoqin was dissatisfied when she heard this and opened her mouth to continue howling.
Qin Wenli was in a dilemma and had to ask his mother: "So, Mom, do you think we should go to Yang's house or not?"
go? How to get there? Do I have the face to go? Hu Yufeng's face hurts as much as she was determined before.
She even felt a little resentful towards her past self. How did she educate her child?
"Why should I go? Do I have the nerve to go? Just stay at home for two days and see if anyone from the Yang family comes. We'll talk about it then..." Hu Yufeng let out a burst of anger.
"He hit me, Mom, but instead of going to his house to ask for an explanation, you made me wait. After all, I'm not his biological child, and you keep torturing me like this..." Qin Xiaoqin knew how to stab her mother in the heart.
Hu Yufeng felt a chill in her heart and a dizzy head after being poked. This is the daughter I have spoiled for more than 20 years? In the end, he is using something that is not his own child to poke himself!
"Go find your biological mother. I raised you to this age and now you have become my enemy. I deserve to die. Why would I ever think of hugging you? Go, find your biological mother..." Hu Yufeng slapped herself and pushed Qin Xiaoqin out of the door.
Qin Xiaoqin regretted what she said. Although she was stupid, she knew that some of her words were too much. At this moment, Hu Yufeng was pushing him like a madman, clinging to the door and crying, refusing to leave.
Hu Yufeng really felt like she was going crazy. What sin did she commit in her previous life to have such an ungrateful person in this life?
Qin Wenli and Yang Xiu tried their best to pull the two people who were fighting apart.
"Mom, calm down. Xiaoqin just said that. She doesn't have any bad intentions. Don't bother with her..." Yang Xiu advised.
Yes, I always talk like that. But in the past she was his sharpest knife, and now it was stabbing back at him that he felt the pain piercing his heart.
Hu Yufeng felt completely exhausted and let Yang Xiu help her sit down. My heart felt like there was a big hole dug in it, empty and painful.
When Xiaoqin first came, she was very thin and small. She borrowed money to buy a dairy sheep and raised her until she became plump and white. She had no talent for studying, and her family saved money to support her. Qin Wenli had no part in all this.
Many people said that they spoiled their daughter, treated their son like a weed, but treated their girl like a treasure, but she didn't care. But Xiaoqin has now become one of those people, working together to deal with her...
Act like a big fool, you are a big fool yourself.
Hu Yufeng covered her face with her hands and buried her head deeply, immersed in her own grief.
Seeing that the mother and daughter had quieted down, Yang Xiu and Qin Wenli glanced at each other and went back to their work.
The excessive silence in the yard made the cicadas' chirping sound even more impatient, like countless chaotic symphonies echoing in Hu Yufeng's mind. She felt like her head was about to explode...
