Chapter 403 is just too tragic.
Chen Jianye knew that he probably wouldn't be able to take the person away without paying ten yuan, so he had no choice but to pay ten yuan before Li Laoda and his brothers made way for him.
The two returned home before lunchtime.
The Chen family was stunned when they first saw Li Chunhua; they almost didn't recognize her.
In just two months, Li Chunhua lost a lot of weight, and her face looked haggard, clearly showing that she had suffered a lot.
He kept his head down, looking timid and hesitant: "Dad, Mom, I'm back."
Ma Xiulian didn't intend to make things difficult for her, and simply replied, "Okay, let's go inside."
Judging from her expression, she'll probably be quiet for a long time this time.
As soon as Li Chunhua entered the house, she hugged her youngest son and called out repeatedly, "Jinbao, my good son, Mommy missed you so much!"
He kept calling out to them while kissing them repeatedly.
Zhao Mei and the other mothers couldn't help but tear up as they watched. Mother and son had been separated for so long, and the third sister-in-law was also pitiful.
Liu Lanzhi, who recently became a mother, especially empathizes with this. She can't bear to let her two children out of her sight, let alone not see them for two months.
In a moment, they forgave Li Chunhua for stealing the face cream.
Li Chunhua wanted to hug Xiaobao, but Xiaobao dodged away in fear, his eyes still showing unfamiliarity.
Because Li Chunhua looked like a completely different person at that moment; her face was so thin it was almost skeletal, but her eyes were very large, making her look somewhat ferocious and scary.
"Little Bao, it's Mommy!"
His dodging action hurt and saddened Li Chunhua greatly, but fortunately Jinbao was not afraid of her and even grinned at her happily.
Li Chunhua's heart softened completely, and she held her youngest son tightly, unwilling to let go: "Jinbao, my Jinbao, I will never leave you again!"
After all the dishes were served, Ma Xiulian said, "Let's eat."
Li Chunhua immediately sat down, staring at the food on the table and swallowing her saliva frantically, as if her eyes were glowing with greed. However, she dared not grab the meat as she used to.
Chen Jianye felt sorry for her and put a lot of meat in her bowl, saying, "Eat up, wife, eat more!"
Li Chunhua gradually loosened up. She ate like a wolf, as if she hadn't eaten her fill in centuries.
Moreover, his hands were covered in calluses, which made Zhou Zhaodi feel sorry for him; it was just too pitiful.
Although everyone knew that the Li family didn't treat their daughter like a human being, no one expected them to mistreat her to this extent. Li Chunhua must have suffered terribly these past two months.
Seeing that she was eating so fast, Zhao Mei couldn't help but advise, "Third brother's wife, eat slowly, don't choke."
Before she could finish speaking, Li Chunhua choked, her eyes rolling back in pain as she pounded her neck, letting out a hoarse "Heh heh!"
Chen Jianye hurriedly went to pour her some water, but she swallowed it herself.
He endured the discomfort in his throat and continued to stuff meat into his mouth until it was completely full.
Because of the excessive stuffing, my mouth couldn't close properly, and oil and residue started gushing out.
The children were a little shocked by her eating habits, and the little princess, who loves cleanliness and beautiful things, looked disgusted and said, "How disgusting."
Ma Xiulian immediately frowned and scolded, "What kind of eating manners are you?! If you keep eating like that, get out and eat!"
Li Chunhua then slowed down; she hadn't eaten meat for far too long and was severely lacking in oil.
In Old Li's family, any meat or oily food goes to the men, while the women and daughters can only watch longingly.
