"Mom won't beat you anymore, and she will provide you with enough clothes and warm food..." Lin Yuexi said, touching the little girl's head.
"Really..." the two kids asked in disbelief.
As they were talking, the door was pushed open with a creaky sound, and the eldest sister-in-law Li Xiuying came in with half a bowl of porridge. Seeing Lin Yuexi wake up, her face changed slightly and she snorted coldly: "Oh, you woke up? I thought you could sleep forever. Here, drink this porridge quickly, don't waste food."
Lin Yuexi raised her eyes and looked at her coldly, but did not reach out to take it.
Li Xiuying felt uneasy when being stared at, and became angry out of shame: "What? You didn't drink the porridge I gave you, do you want to enjoy the feast?"
Lin Yuexi slowly stood up, looked straight at her, and said in a deep voice: "Sister-in-law, don't think that I don't know that you have secretly eaten my food these days! Is this little porridge enough for the three of us, mother and son?"
When Li Xiuying heard this, she felt something was wrong. Lin Yuexi was usually a taciturn person. She would never fight back when beaten or retaliate when scolded, and would only take out her anger on the two children. Anyone could bully her.
The sun rose from the west today, and she actually talked back! I should have eaten all the porridge at noon today, and let the mother and her two children starve to death.
Li Xiuying's eyes widened, as if she had heard something extremely absurd. Her face instantly turned pale, and she shouted angrily, "You shameless bitch, how dare you slander me! I was kind enough to bring you porridge, but you made up a story about me. I have been supporting you for nothing, but you are really an ungrateful person!"
As she spoke, she pretended to throw the bowl of porridge to the ground, as if this would shatter Lin Yuexi's aura.
Lin Yuexi did not move at all, with a sneer on her lips, and her eyes were like sharp blades piercing Li Xiuying: "Sister-in-law, don't pretend here. You took advantage of my illness these few days to secretly eat the food that belonged to us mother and son. Did you think no one saw it?
Although I am still sick, the child is crying because of hunger. If the crying is heard, can't others hear it? If there is a big fight, let everyone judge and see how you bully your sister-in-law, nephew and niece..."
Li Xiuying's heart started to panic. She did have this selfish intention. She thought she could do it perfectly by taking advantage of Lin Yuexi's weak and vulnerable character. However, she never expected that she was like a different person today.
But she was not willing to give in easily. She gritted her teeth and said fiercely, "Hmph, don't try to scare me with these words! Who can believe you when you say that? You said I cheated, do you have any evidence? If you don't have evidence, don't slander me here!"
"Evidence, you want evidence, right? The bowl of porridge you brought is the evidence. Let's go and seek justice from our mother!"
Lin Yuexi picked up the bowl of porridge that Li Xiulan brought with one hand, and with the other hand, she pulled her towards the main house.
It is said to be the main house of the Lu family, but in fact it is just three large tiled houses built with the allowance Lu Cheng sent back. The original owner lived in it when she married Lu Cheng, but in the next two years, Lu Cheng went to the army and never came back. He never mentioned Lin Yuexi in the letters he sent back with the allowance.
The couple thought that Lu Cheng didn't want his wife anymore, so they boldly occupied the three large tiled houses and drove the original owner into the old kitchen.
Of course, the excuse they made was also very funny. They said that the original owner had an affair and that the two children were not their Lu Cheng's.
The original owner was such a useless thing, he didn't even dare to fart and just moved in with his two children.
In her heart, she did resent Lu Cheng for getting her pregnant and then not caring about her, and she also disliked the two children. The Lu family bullied her, so couldn't she bully the two Lu family members she gave birth to?
The original owner's mentality, in today's terms, is really a bit abnormal. As the saying goes, there must be something hateful about a pitiful person!
Lin Yuexi dragged Li Xiuying and walked towards the main house at big strides. Li Xiuying staggered all the way, cursing non-stop, trying to shake off Lin Yuexi's hand, but Lin Yuexi seemed to be determined today. The strength in her hands was so great that her nails dug into Li Xiuying's flesh.
"You crazy woman, let me go! If you go to my mother, you will be in trouble!" Li Xiuying yelled, but there was a hint of guilt in her voice.
The two of them soon arrived at the entrance of the main house. Lin Yuexi kicked the half-closed door open, startling Liu Cuihua, who was leisurely eating melon seeds in the house, so much that she almost jumped up.
"You're courting death! So reckless!" Liu Cuihua's eyes widened in anger. When she saw that it was Lin Yuexi and Li Xiuying, her brows knitted even tighter, "What's going on? It's so noisy!"
Lin Yuexi put the bowl of porridge heavily on the table with a clang, and the porridge splashed a few points. She said in a cold voice: "Mom, please judge for yourself. My sister-in-law sent me this half bowl of watery porridge every day, saying that you asked her to feed us three children, but the child is so hungry that his bones are visible. Look, does this look like enough food? She is deliberately starving us to death!"
Li Xiuying immediately jumped up and pointed at Lin Yuexi's nose: "Mom, don't listen to her nonsense! These few days I have worked hard to serve this lazy woman every day according to your wishes, and I still end up like this. She just can't stand me being in your favor, so she wants to make up a plan for me to replace you!"
Liu Cuihua looked back and forth at the two people's faces. She knew clearly that Li Xiuying must have taken advantage of Lin Yuexi's illness to steal the food of the mother and her two children, but she didn't want to expose it in person. After all, this eldest daughter-in-law usually obeyed her wishes the most! She also gave her old Lu family a legitimate grandson.
And it is not certain whether these two little bastards born to Lin Yuexi are her son Lu Cheng's children?
So she waved her hand impatiently: "Alright, alright, stop making a fuss here. I just ate your food, why is it necessary to make such a fuss? Besides, you don't work every day and still expect to have a full meal. That's wishful thinking."
When Lin Yuexi heard this, she got angry! This mother-in-law is really evil!
It's easy to say, isn't it just eating the little food you have? But the original owner died of starvation because he didn't eat this little food for a few days!
If I hadn't just taken advantage of the two children's inattention and used my mind to pour out a cup of spiritual spring water in space to drink, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to get here now.
Lin Yuexi's chest rose and fell violently, her eyes flushed with anger, she stared at Liu Cuihua, her eyes seemed to see through this extremely biased mother-in-law in front of her: "Mother, you say it lightly, I am so hungry that my chest is not attached to my back.
The child also suffered. His face was pale and he cried all day long without any strength.
If I hadn't fought hard these past few days, I'm afraid three people in the Lu family would have died. By then, wouldn't the spit of the villagers have drowned our Lu family? "
Liu Cuihua was startled by Lin Yuexi's sudden toughness. A trace of panic flashed across her face, but she quickly regained her cold and arrogant expression. She threw the melon seeds in her hand onto the table and raised her voice: "Don't be alarmist here! It's not your turn to make decisions about the Lu family's affairs. Don't think you can turn the tables by accusing your eldest sister-in-law of this little mistake. I'm the one who takes care of everyone in this family. You're just enjoying the benefits!"
