Lin Shiyu didn't want to pay attention to Zhang when she had something delicious to eat, but she couldn't stand such sour words.
"grandmother."
She took the time to look up and call out to Old Mrs. Lin opposite her.
"Um?"
Old Mrs. Lin looked at her puzzledly.
"The meat is cooked so deliciously!" Lin Shiyu praised at first, then changed the subject: "It's just that they added too much vinegar, the sour smell is overwhelming!"
As she spoke, she fanned her nose in Zhang's direction, as if to drive away the sour smell.
The implication of driving away and disdain is very obvious.
Mrs. Lin, who was a little confused at first, understood immediately. Not only her, but everyone else who heard it also understood.
“Puff!”
Sun couldn't help laughing out loud, but when she came to her senses, she immediately covered her mouth, lowered her head and continued eating, but her ears were perked up.
The third child’s daughter is so funny!
"I didn't put any vinegar in it. Do you think vinegar is free?" Mrs. Lin explained with a straight face. After a pause, she added, "Maybe something has gone bad. That's why the sour smell has reached your nose. You can't smell it when you look the other way."
"Oh!" Lin Shiyu suddenly realized something and turned around obediently: "I really can't smell it anymore. I was wondering how grandma could be so amazing. She could actually cook meat that tastes delicious but smells sour. It turns out it's not the meat's fault!"
The rice grains in Sun's mouth almost spit out, but fortunately she held it back. However, she could not control the frequency of her shoulders shaking.
Seeing his wife trembling, Lin Anji thought she was so moved by the meat that she cried. After hesitating for a while, he finally gave her the half-eaten piece of meat in his bowl.
Sun was a little puzzled by her husband's behavior, but after thinking about it, she didn't refuse.
The man in the family has already eaten at noon, so it won’t be unfair to him if he eats one less piece now.
Lin Shiyu and Old Lady Lin sang the same tune, and Zhang was filled with hatred.
But one of them was her mother-in-law, so she couldn't do anything and could only glare at Lin Shiyu fiercely.
Lin Shiyu was not afraid of her at all and responded with a smile.
"Eat well. If you talk less, you can eat two more pieces of meat."
Liu pretended to scold her, saying that she had watched the whole process and only stopped her from continuing her rude impulse at the last moment.
She let out her anger, and if she continued, it would be considered rude of her daughter.
Lin Shiyu tried hard to eat her meal, and Zhang could only hold her anger in her stomach.
I'm really angry.
.......
"Can't you three learn from others? You just eat without thinking and bring shame to your parents."
As soon as she returned to the room, Zhang closed the door and vented her anger directly on her three children.
The scenes of loving mothers and filial children in the other two families hurt her eyes. Why didn’t her own child have any good sense? She made others feel that she was not good at teaching children.
The three children were not afraid of their mother getting angry, but they had to be afraid because their father had a dark face behind him!
"My meat was eaten by my younger brother." Lin Shijie explained in a low voice.
This is what her parents have always asked her to do. Whenever there are good things, they should be shared with her younger brother first, so she said this.
In fact, she grabbed two pieces of meat, ate the first one herself, and gave the second one to her brother. At that time, everyone was paying attention to the meat in front of them and no one noticed what she did. Lin Shijie was not afraid at all that her words would be exposed.
"And you?"
The eldest daughter did nothing wrong so he couldn't blame her, so he could only point at the second daughter and ask.
"I...I didn't get it." Lin Shiyi explained in panic.
She has always been low-key and is most afraid of being noticed by others. Even if it is her parents, she would feel uncomfortable.
"Can't you be more capable? You can't even get any meat!" Zhang poked her head and said angrily.
Lin Shiyi lowered her head and lay motionless, allowing her mother to poke her.
She put the meat into her mouth, and she didn't care about being poked on the forehead twice.
Zhang poked her several times but saw no reaction, so she let her go out of her way and turned to look at her son.
Lin Bocai looked up at his mother. He still didn't know what happened during the meal!
After he came back, he kept listening to his mother and sister talking. He roughly knew what had happened, but he was absolutely unwilling to give up the meat in his bowl.
Besides, my father and mother have always emphasized that good things are earned only if you eat them or take them home. There is no such thing as sharing them.
He didn't say anything, but looked at Zhang with confidence.
Zhang looked at her son's big eyes and reached out to touch his head. She couldn't bear to hit her only son.
"It's just a piece of meat! You can have as much as you want if you go back to your mother's house more often." Lin Anxiang said impatiently.
There was nothing valuable in the division of property today, and he didn't even know if the money he got was enough to buy land and build a new house. He felt annoyed when he thought about it.
Because of the Zhang family's love for Zhang, no matter how poor they were, they would not treat their daughter casually when she came home, and Zhang's parents would even secretly subsidize her.
Yes! Subsidies.
Thinking of this, Lin Anxiang's eyes lit up: "Let's go back to your parents' house tomorrow. If we want to live in a good house, it depends on whether your parents can provide it."
"Well, okay!" Zhang responded somewhat reluctantly, with a subtle contempt in her charming eyes.
However, Lin Anxiang was planning to go to the Zhang family to borrow money tomorrow, so he didn't notice that his loving wife was looking at him with contempt.
.......
"Don't be so sharp-tongued when you're out there, okay?"
After Liu finished wiping her daughter's body with hot water, she pinched her little nose affectionately.
"Why?" Lin Shiyu asked back.
It's so fun to argue with people, especially with someone you don't like. It's the most fun to make her speechless and feel like you want to hit her but can't.
If this little bit of fun is restricted, wouldn’t life be missing out on a lot of fun?
"It's bad for your reputation. If a girl loses her reputation, half of her life will be ruined." Liu explained seriously and did not force her just because she was young.
This world is always so unfair to women, and there are always so many rules and regulations requiring them.
"Oh!" Lin Shiyu understood, then turned her head and looked at her father: "Dad, in order to let me talk more freely, when will you let me become a daughter of an official family?"
"Um?"
Lin Anru didn't know what was going on in her head, why the topic was brought up here again.
"If you were an official and I were a daughter of an official, these people outside wouldn't judge me. As long as what I said was not unorthodox, they would just say 'right, right, right'. They wouldn't point fingers at me and say this is wrong or that is not allowed."
Lin Shiyu said it as a matter of course.
