Chen Xuanxuan's return to her parents' home this time can be said to

be a fruitful one. When she returned, her blackened and torn basket was filled with more than five kilograms of food, two shirts with patches all over, and two pairs of torn pants that were obviously worn by children.

Even so, Chen Xuanxuan was still very happy.

It was still early in the morning when she came. When she returned, it was drizzling outside. She

was worried that the food in the basket would be soaked by the rain. Chen Xuanxuan walked faster and faster. Until the heavy rain hit her, she had already returned to her home.

"Open the door! I'm back!"

Gu Yanzhang, who was in the house, heard her voice. He was excited at that time.

"Wife, you are back?"

Chen Xuanxuan stepped over the threshold, ran in, and quickly sat by the stove to warm herself.

"Wife, why did you bring back so much food?"

Chen Xuanxuan raised her head and noticed that her adoptive parents-in-law had woken up, and several pairs of eyes were looking at her eagerly. She said calmly.

"I went back to my parents' home."

"My parents saw that I was in a difficult situation, so they gave me five kilograms of soybeans and taro. When they heard that my children had no clothes to wear, they gave me the clothes that they could no longer wear..."

At this point, Chen Xuanxuan raised her hand and waved to her adoptive sons.

"Come, come, all of you come here."

"Here are two pieces of clothing and two pairs of pants. Divide them among the four of you."

Gu Yanzhang couldn't help but hold the youngest daughter in his arms.

"Wife, what should our daughter wear?"

Chen Xuanxuan thought about it seriously and noticed the sack of food in her hand.

"Here, wear this!"

"When we finish eating the food here in a few days, I'll borrow a pair of scissors from someone and cut it off so she can put it on directly..."

Gu Yanzhang thought about it seriously and then started to wave his hands, saying, "No, no."

"This sack in your hand was given to you by your family..."

Chen Xuanxuan couldn't help but glare at him.

"My family gave it to me, so what?"

"Since they gave it to me, it's mine. I can use it however I like..."

"Okay, let's not discuss this now. Hurry up and take out the broken plate in the house to collect some rainwater. Then, we can cook." After

hearing this, Gu Yanzhang put the three-year-old girl next to the stove.

Then, he took Gu Dazhu and went out with a few broken pottery basins.

Chen Xuanxuan spent a long time trying to make the fire, and when she felt that she was almost dry, she started to cook.

While cooking, she couldn't help but think of another problem in her mind. Fortunately, the house inside didn't leak.

If it leaked, she wouldn't be able to sleep tonight!

Chen Xuanxuan cooked a big earthenware pot of porridge made from soybeans and taro today.

The porridge was very thick and had a strong aroma.

After boiling it for more than an hour, Chen Xuanxuan used the big black spoon at home to stir it vigorously for a few times. She felt it was almost done, so she asked everyone in the family to take out their wooden bowls.

"Hurry up, come and eat."

"I cooked a lot today. You can have at least one bowl each."

After scooping a big bowl of porridge for Gu Yu'an and Qiao Shi, she scooped a whole big bowl for Gu Yanzhang.

Seeing that there was still a lot left in the pot, Chen Xuanxuan was not stingy and gave each of the six children half a bowl of porridge.

"Don't be anxious, eat slowly. Don't let it get too hot."

"I made plenty of porridge today. I guarantee everyone will be full. If you're done, you can add more here."

After saying that, Chen Xuanxuan scooped half a bowl for herself. People who haven't eaten enough for a long time are not suitable for eating and drinking too much.

She felt that her stomach was full after drinking half a bowl of porridge.

So, Chen Xuanxuan put down the bowl in her hand.

Seeing that they were the same as her, after eating a bowl and a half, they didn't plan to eat anymore, Chen Xuanxuan couldn't help but say.

"I still have half a pot here!"

"Aren't you going to eat anymore?"

Gu Yanzhang raised his hand and patted his belly gently after hearing this.

"Wife, I'm full."

"Let's eat the remaining porridge tomorrow?"

Knowing that they were extremely hungry but wanted to eat more slowly, Chen Xuanxuan thought about it and nodded in agreement.

"Okay."

"Then...let's save the remaining porridge in this pottery pot for tomorrow..."

Hearing that there would be food tomorrow, everyone sitting by the stove was very happy.

Great.

There will be delicious food tomorrow.

In addition, their children still have clothes to wear today, and they couldn't help but smile foolishly.

Seeing them so happy just for a bite of food and a piece of tattered clothes... Chen Xuanxuan felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.

The lives of these people are really too difficult. After the slight changes at home, their spirits became different.

Chen Xuanxuan's family was still happy.

But tonight, her parents' home was turned upside down because of her arrival.

"Mom, what are you thinking?"

"Our life is already hard enough. You support this daughter-in-law and then support that daughter-in-law, making our family look like a kind-hearted boy. Wuwuwuwuwu, how can you ignore the life and death of our family for your own reputation?"

"If we continue to live like this, our family might as well die..."

Hearing her third daughter-in-law Zhang crying and making a fuss, the old lady Liu, who was sitting at the top drinking porridge, couldn't help but frown.

"Mrs. Third, what happened

to you today?" "What did I do to let you down? That you have to make a fuss with me?"

Hearing this, the third daughter-in-law Zhang was immediately furious.

She was really going crazy with such a life. She was also going crazy with this unreasonable old woman.

Don't think she doesn't know today. The old woman secretly stuffed several kilograms of food for her third daughter-in-law.

Giving food would be fine.

She even gave her a few clothes at home.

Those old clothes were all altered from the clothes she wore when she got married decades ago!

When I think of this damn old woman, she does bad things all day long. Zhang's hatred for her is like the waves in the sea, one wave higher than the other.

"Mom, you said you gave food to the third sister, but why did you give her clothes?"

"Now our family is not rich, and the eldest sister-in-law has to take medicine every day, and has to eat good food every day to replenish her body. This is a hole that can never be filled!"

When the old lady Liu heard this, she finally figured it out. The third daughter-in-law is taking the opportunity to cause trouble!

On the surface, she was talking about her helping the third daughter. In fact, she came for her eldest brother and sister-in-law.
