The wild rabbit was stir-fried with some chili sauce, and when it was half cooked, two white radishes from her own field were added. Before taking the dish out of the pot, Li Qiuhua added a handful of chopped green chilies to enhance the flavor.

As soon as Shen Zhihuan opened his eyes after being woken up by Xiao Weidong, he smelled the aroma of green pepper, radish and wild rabbit.

By the time Shen Zhihuan washed his face, the delicious food was already on the table.

Looking at the white rice in front of her, Shen Zhimei looked a little dazed.

She couldn't remember how long it had been since she had eaten white rice.

Every day, apart from steamed buns made from whole grains, there is wild vegetable soup or sweet potato porridge. It is called sweet potato porridge, but in fact it is just a few pieces of sweet potatoes mixed with half a bowl of rice soup.

If she hadn't occasionally seen Qian Zhizhi and Qian family's treasure Qian Dabao eating it, she would have almost forgotten that there was such a thing as rice in the world.

Whenever Shen Zhimei heard Daya and Erya whispering about the rice porridge they ate at grandma's house, she felt very uncomfortable.

It's because she's a useless mother...

She had been in the Qian family for six or seven years. The Qian family had many strong laborers, and they received at least four to five hundred kilograms of fine grain every year. However, throughout the year, not a single grain of fine grain entered the bowls of her and her two daughters.

Other families may dislike maids, but none of them are as bad as the Qian family.

Her grandson Qian Dabao was raised to be plump and white, while her two daughters were skinny and small, just like unwanted beggars on the street.

Not only are his clothes tattered, but he doesn't even have a decent cotton jacket for the winter.

As soon as winter came, the two little girls' hands became red and swollen from the cold.

Shen Zhimei lowered her brows and ate the rice in the bowl, and tears rolled silently into the rice.

"Sister, what's wrong? Did someone from the Qian family make you angry?" Shen Zhihuan frowned and put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands.

Through the original owner's memory, she knew a little about her eldest sister's mother-in-law.

The words "brutal, domineering and unreasonable" were tailor-made for Old Lady Qian.

"No, I just haven't eaten with you for a long time, and I feel happy." Shen Zhimei quickly raised her hand to wipe away her tears.

"Sister, there is no end to the work in the fields. When you have time in the future, bring Daya and Erya back more often." Shen Zhihuan put the big chicken leg in the basin into Shen Zhimei's bowl.

Every family has its own problems. Since her elder sister didn’t want to talk about it, she didn’t dare to ask too much.

after all……

Only when one drinks the water can one know whether it is hot or cold.

Others who interfered without permission would only be disliked! Shen Zhimei frowned and looked at the chicken drumstick in the bowl. The next moment, she was about to give it to Shen Zhihuan, "I don't like this, but you..."

"Just eat what your little sister gives you. There are so many in the bowls and plates. Are you afraid that she will be hungry?!" Li Qiuhua said hurriedly.

The eldest daughter is good in every way except that she is too honest.

"Sister, eat it! It's so hot, it would be a shame if we don't eat it and let it go bad." While speaking, Shen Zhihuan put another chicken leg into Xiao Weidong's bowl, and then picked up a piece of meaty chicken breast for Li Qiuhua.

After the meal, most of the dishes on the table were eaten.

After cleaning up the dishes, Shen Zhimei was about to leave.

Only Da Ya and Er Ya were at home, and she was really worried.

Especially in recent times, Qian Dabao saw someone playing with a slingshot and started clamoring for Grandma Qian to make him a slingshot. Grandma Qian, who always responds to her precious grandson's requests, made the decision immediately.

In the past few days, Qian Dabao used the slingshot made by Qian Xingwang to aim at everything he saw, and he had already made several holes in the window of their room.

She was so scared that she put a board on the window for the past few days, for fear that the stones he threw would hurt Daya and Erya.

Li Qiuhua wrapped the two big rabbit legs with oil paper, and stuffed the only remaining egg cakes, glutinous rice noodles, a can of malted milk, and half a bag of milk powder in the cupboard into the half-new cloth bag in Shen Zhimei's hand.

Xiao Weidong also took out the bag of White Rabbit milk candy hidden in Shen Zhihuan's room. Despite Shen Zhimei's objection, he stuffed it into the cloth bag, saying that he wanted to give it to his two little nieces.

Before leaving, Li Qiuhua stuffed five more big unity notes into Shen Zhimei's pocket, causing Shen Zhimei to return to Lao Qian's house with red eyes.

The door was half open and there was no one in the yard.

Qian Xingsheng injured his leg, and Qian Xingwang and Qian Xingsheng's wife Xie Xiaofen went to the hospital to take care of the injured.

Qian Dabao has recently become obsessed with playing with slingshots, so Grandma Qian probably accompanied him to the hillside to hunt for birds to shoot.

As for Qian Zhizhi, she could never stay at home. After eating, she would go from one house to another.

I heard that a handsome young man had recently come to the youth training center. Qian Zhizhi would run to the youth training center as soon as she opened her eyes, taking the eggs cooked for her by old lady Qian.

I definitely won’t come back until dinner time.

Such a grown-up girl, and she has no sense of shame.

Many people in the village made fun of the Qian family's daughter behind her back, saying that the Qian family's daughter was restless and whoever married her would be unlucky.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

But her mother-in-law spoils her and if anyone dares to say something against her, she will stand at the gate and scold them for days and nights.

Seeing that there was no one in the yard, Shen Zhimei trotted back to the house and hid her things.

Before she stepped out of the house, she heard familiar footsteps coming from the yard.

Daya and Erya each carried a small bundle of firewood and walked towards the firewood pile near the courtyard wall.

Shen Zhimei glanced behind Daya and Erya, and made sure that there was no one at the gate, and quickly waved to the two sisters.

"Mom, you're back." Daya and Erya raised their eyes and saw their mother waving at them. They threw away the bundle of firewood and rushed to Shen Zhimei happily.

Shen Zhimei pulled the two sisters into the house and gestured to them to keep quiet, indicating that they should not speak.

Daya and Erya shut their mouths obediently.

Shen Zhimei glanced at the gate through the crack in the window. After making sure that there was no one there, she took out the rabbit leg wrapped in oil paper by Li Qiuhua from under the bed and motioned for the two sisters to eat quickly.

Da Ya and Er Ya's eyes lit up.

Daya whispered, "Mom, was it given to us by Second Aunt?"

"This is what your grandmother, aunt and uncle left for you. Eat it quickly!" Shen Zhimei gently touched Daya and Erya's heads and urged them in a low voice.

"Mom, you eat first!" The two little guys handed the big rabbit legs to Shen Zhimei's mouth at the same time.

"Mom has already eaten at grandma's house. This is specially left for you. Eat it quickly!" Shen Zhimei urged again in a low voice.

At this time, the sound of Qian Dabao pulling a slingshot came from the gate of the yard.

Then it was Old Lady Qian who called me sweetheart and baby.

"Grandma, I want to eat chicken legs."

In the yard, Qian Dabao pulled the slingshot and aimed at the chickens in the chicken coop.

"Oh! My dear, the chicken is for you to lay eggs. If you want to eat chicken legs, wait for your father to come back. I will ask him to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy you braised chicken legs." Old Mrs. Qian hurriedly grabbed Qian Dabao and coaxed him softly.

"I want to eat more egg cake." Qian Dabao said loudly.

"Okay, okay! I'll buy you whatever your baby wants to eat." Old Mrs. Qian agreed readily.

Daya and Erya looked at each other and started to eat with big mouthfuls.
