Upon seeing Zhou Shi, Aunt Chi's expression darkened. She didn't slam her fist on the table or shout; instead, she calmly said:
"Your eggs? Did you lay them? You can still recognize them even after they're cooked? You're pretty amazing."
Wow!
Chi Tang was stunned.
This bride is forty years old, and she still thinks she's the kind of shrew who's easy to bully, has no eloquence, and only knows how to curse.
Who knew he was so eloquent?
"You bastard, you shameless slut! How dare you talk to me like that? You have such a slutty mouth, all you ever do is... you're so old and you're still sticking your ass out to have kids, you're shameless!"
A torrent of foul language poured out, and the whole family was indignant.
Chi Dashan, in particular, was practically spitting fire from his eyes.
If it weren't for Aunt Chi's instructions, Chi Dashan would have already exploded.
"Mom, what are you doing?" Old Man Chi's face turned pale. He was furious when he saw his mother, who was over sixty years old and still making a fuss.
"What are you doing? I'm going to get back the eggs you stole!" Zhou said firmly, her voice very loud.
The Chi family was puzzled. How did she know there were more than twenty eggs in the house?
Old Man Chi said with a dark face, "My family wouldn't steal your eggs."
"No? Where did your eggs come from? You don't even have a single hen, so what eggs are you eating?"
"Couldn't we have picked it up on the mountain?" Chi Wuhu, the youngest and most impatient, asked angrily.
Zhou sneered, her face full of disgust: "Pah! You lot, why don't you take a piss and look at yourselves in the mirror? Do you even have the face to pick up eggs? Hurry up and hand over my eggs, or I'm not done with this today!"
"You said you didn't, and you..."
"Grandma, we only collected five eggs and ate them all today. There really aren't any more eggs in the cupboard!"
Sister-in-law Chi immediately offered a word of advice.
The other members of the Chi family looked at Chi Sansao in shock or anger, while the latter shrank back sheepishly.
"Great, perfect timing, everyone's here. If there aren't any eggs in this cupboard today, this old codger will admit his mistake and give them twenty eggs in return! Otherwise, hmph, their eggs were stolen from me!"
Zhou immediately seized on what Chi Sansao had said and started shouting.
The older women and younger wives who had come to watch the commotion all advised Aunt Chi to open the cabinet and show everyone, wouldn't that solve the problem?
Aunt Chi's face didn't look too good; there really were still more than a dozen eggs in the cupboard!
"Even if there are eggs in the cupboard, it doesn't prove they were stolen from your house. Do you think it will respond if you call it?" Aunt Chi offered a weak defense.
Upon hearing this, everyone's gazes changed.
Could it be true?
Zhou chuckled, suddenly feeling he had the upper hand!
She immediately said, "Okay, as long as there are no eggs in the cupboard, I'll give you twenty. But if there are eggs in it, I won't say you stole them, just give them to me. What can I do? I'm your mother, stubborn on the outside but soft on the inside."
vomit!
This old lady really knows how to flatter herself!
Chi Tang immediately pointed at the cabinet and started shouting "Ah ah!"
Let them see!
I'll eat my hat if they can even see the egg!
"Mother!" Sister-in-law Chi, who was sitting next to Aunt Chi, was a little flustered.
At this moment, Sister-in-law Chi stood up indignantly: "Are you afraid to let me see? Grandma, when you give us twenty eggs, don't try to renege on your promise!"
have to!
With just one sentence from Sister-in-law Chi, the matter was set in stone and could never be stirred up again!
Aunt Chi didn't have time to deal with her third daughter-in-law. Now she was only worried that if she opened the cabinet, would she have to bear the dirty name of theft?
Before Aunt Chi could figure it out, Zhou rushed up and grabbed the key to open the cabinet!
Aunt Chi tried to snatch it, but Chi Tang in her arms started to make a fuss. Aunt Chi instinctively looked at her daughter, and the key was snatched away!
Almost instantly, Zhou opened the cupboard, saw the eggs inside, and immediately shouted, "Look, there are eggs here! More than ten, plus the ones we ate, which are exactly the twenty eggs that were stolen from our house!"
Zhou turned around excitedly and started shouting at the crowd. His face, which looked like old tree bark, was full of excitement!
More than a dozen eggs!
And I can also take a jab at this bastard while I'm at it!
Killing two birds with one stone!
But she noticed that everyone was looking at her... like she was an idiot?
As for the Chi family, they were all shocked.
"Grandma, where are the eggs? Even if you want to frame us, you can't just lie through your teeth. We're not all blind."
Children are more receptive, and Chi Wuhu, with his thin little body, broke the silence with a crisp snap.
The women who had come in to mediate the fight also looked at Zhou Shi speechlessly: "Madam, what kind of eyesight do you have? There isn't a single egg in there!"
"ah!"
Chi Tang shouted excitedly.
Let's see how the old woman handles this.
Zhou was bewildered and furious: "Are you blind? Look at all these eggs..."
Where did it go?
When Zhou turned around, she was so frightened that she plopped down on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed)! But because she was too heavy and was only sitting on the edge, she lost her balance and fell to the ground with a thud!
Before anyone could help her up, Zhou got up with great energy and peered into the cupboard from the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) – there were only a few empty grain sacks, not a single eggshell!
Zhou rubbed her eyes again, then suddenly pointed at Aunt Chi and cursed, "You shameless wretch, did you hide it?"
