The village chief looked at He Shi as if she were a fool, shook his head, and said, "You can think of things, but some things can't be said out loud!"
Brainless!
I wonder how the Zhou family found their daughter-in-law!
He doesn't look smart at all; no, he looks like a menace!
The village chief disliked He Shi very much. Originally, because she was a relative of the Mo family, he still viewed her with some prejudice and had to give the Mo family some face. But there was nothing he could do. There were always people who liked to challenge other people's bottom line and took themselves too seriously!
I hate people who are clueless yet self-righteous!
They can't do anything and do nothing, but they're great at creating trouble!
He wouldn't even dare to think of taking in a child who was not related to him, let alone put it on the Mo family. How could Madam He dare to do that?
Wow, they're really bold!
Do you really think that just because you have a good relationship with the Mo family, you can say whatever you want?
The Mo family is better off, that's true, but their journey to escape famine has only just begun. They haven't even traveled many miles yet, and who knows how many difficulties await them on the road ahead?
Nothing is certain, and the stockpiled goods we brought are limited. Who wouldn't prioritize their own family first?
Everyone looks out for themselves!
If you're not capable, don't take on jobs you shouldn't be doing. Besides, He didn't take the job herself; she passed it on to someone else, which is clearly suspicious of instigating trouble!
Su Nanxi said to Madam He with a half-smile, "Our Mo family doesn't have that ability. There are more than a dozen mouths to feed in our family, and we only have this little bit of stockpiled goods. We don't know when it will all be gone! I think the most capable one is you! If you really want to do good deeds, then you should take on the task to the end!"
He choked and couldn't speak. She had just said it casually, and the only thing on her mind was the Mo family!
She's right!
She didn't understand why Su Nanxi was angry. This was no big deal for the Mo family. If they didn't want others to share their food, they should have said so earlier. Why be so sarcastic?
Don't you even look at what the Mo family has been eating these past two days? It looks even better than their usual meals. It doesn't look like they're fleeing famine at all.
Since they have the means to eat so well, taking in another child is an easy thing. At worst, the Mo family can just eat less!
snort!
Who told them to eat grilled meat and vegetables every day? They even had eggs last night!
Not only did they not give her any food, but they also didn't give her any at all!
Mrs. He was quite angry. She really didn't get anything good. She only got the last bit of food and drink. If there was any, she would drink more. If there wasn't any, she would only get a sip or two!
Why is it that the Mo family can eat and drink so extravagantly?
In short, Madam He just wanted to give the Mo family something to do and cause them some trouble so that she could feel more at ease!
Therefore, what she blurted out was also what she truly felt!
Just as he was about to make a few excuses for himself, Su Nanxi's words came again, "You're so capable and competent, then from now on you should provide your own food. If there's no food, then you don't need to get any."
Su Nanxi spoke calmly, without raising her voice or being aggressive, but He felt she was being pressured and immediately jumped up in anger.
"I have nothing, and you won't give me any food. Are you trying to starve me to death? You knew this perfectly well, and I think you did it on purpose! You're so cruel! I just said something you didn't like, is it really necessary for you to react like this? If you don't want to take someone in, you can just refuse! Why take your anger out on me?"
Looking at Su Nanxi's deep gaze, He Shi, who had been quite confident and assertive, gradually lost her composure and spoke softer and softer.
Su Nanxi crossed her arms and looked at her with a smile, without saying a word, but that smile was not a gentle one; it made He Shi feel uneasy.
He fell silent, but cursed Su Nanxi in her heart. This was mainly because Su Nanxi's appearance frightened her. She felt that Su Nanxi was going too far and intimidating people with her aura!
Zhou Changlin had noticed the situation long ago. He originally didn't want to pay attention to it, but He Shi would get very agitated and start arguing with him as soon as he opened his mouth, regardless of whether he was right or wrong!
So, they don't really intend to pay attention to the He family, but if they keep ignoring them and let the He family keep causing trouble for the Mo family, that wouldn't be good either!
If the Mo family gets into trouble, it will be very disadvantageous for the Zhou family!
They still have to rely on the Mo family along the way!
They don't have any stockpiled goods, so when they need to help, their family is always the most proactive and hardworking. They can't leave a bad impression or give others too much reason to gossip!
I can't just freeload!
Besides, who would want to raise a bunch of lazybones who do nothing?
If it were him, he wouldn't want to either!
Therefore, the Zhou family can only work harder, make their presence known, and let everyone see their efforts!
Try to salvage some of their reputation!
However, He always seemed to be a hindrance. Once or twice might be tolerable, and the Mo family might turn a blind eye, but if it happened too often, people's tolerance would have its limits!
"Still so capable, you could starve for ten or eight days and still not die! Do you really think you're some kind of pampered young mistress? You don't know how to do anything! Don't you know you're a mother? You don't even look after your child! All you do is cause trouble. If you're not destined to enjoy life, then don't pretend! Have some shame!"
Zhou Changlin cursed as he dragged He Shi away.
When Madam He saw Zhou Changlin coming over, she thought he was there to encourage her and say a few words on her behalf. Unexpectedly, he started scolding her before he even arrived.
She was unwilling, but Zhou Changlin was quite strong and pulled her aside with force.
Su Nanxi watched coldly, seemingly talking to herself, "Too capable, missing a few meals won't hurt!"
The village chief immediately understood. He glanced at it, shook his head, and went to the side to give instructions.
Unsurprisingly, Mr. He ended up with nothing to eat!
She was dumbfounded. Holding the broken bowl, she stared blankly for a long time. There wasn't a drop left in the pot!
She wanted to cause trouble again, but seeing the village chief staring intently at her, she didn't dare to be arrogant anymore.
The village chief is not someone to be trifled with; just get rid of her and that's it!
They dare not lash out at the village chief, but they dare to lash out at the Zhou family!
Su Nanxi couldn't be bothered with this kind of person. He was just overeating and his brain was full of water. He would be fine if he skipped a few meals!
But the matter was not over. With no food left, how could He Shi possibly give up so easily!
She felt that Tiedan had eaten her portion, since he had ordered so much!
There used to be some left over, although it was mostly water, but this time there was absolutely nothing left. That's outrageous!
Su Nanxi guessed that He would think this way, but she wanted to keep him on his toes.
"Get out of here! Get the hell away from me!"
Suddenly, Zhou Changlin's angry roar rang out.
Su Nanxi was taken aback. What's wrong? Why are you so angry?
Turning my head, I saw Zhou Changlin yelling at He Shi. Tsk, He Shi is up to her old tricks again!
"You don't deserve to be a mother! What mother in the world doesn't love her own child and put her own baby first? You're the only one who's different! You even try to steal the child's porridge! Get lost, the Zhou family doesn't have a daughter-in-law like you!"
