With the remaining breath, Chen's mother sat up, leaned against the bedding, and slowly drank water. Only after drinking a cup of brown sugar water did she feel a little better.
"Grandma, are you alright?"
"Grandma, does it still hurt?"
"Let me give you a good night's sleep!"
Chen's mother looked at Niu Niu, who was also a pair of twins, and seemed to have a magical aura about her.
"Niu Niu, you take this and feed it to Grandma!" Su Xia came in, carrying a bowl of noodles.
Niu Niu nodded, set up the kang table, held up the bowl of noodles, and started feeding Chen's mother.
Chen's mother....
"If it's nothing, why are you cooking noodles separately?"
"Mother, you're feeling hot and bothered. You haven't been eating much these past few days, that's why you feel so weak. Eat something now, and you'll feel better soon!"
Su Xia explained simply that it was low blood sugar, which, combined with anger, caused her to make a mistake in one fell swoop.
Chen's mother didn't say anything, but she ate half a bowl with Niu Niu's chopsticks, saying that she couldn't finish it.
Su Xia gave Niu Niu a look, and Niu Niu obediently took the bowl of noodles and went out.
"Mother, you're getting on in years, you can't do this anymore."
"Sigh... I didn't mean to, how could I dare to do it again in the future?"
"Yes, you have to praise Liu Ya. If it weren't for this girl, I wouldn't even know!"
Chen's mother looked at Liu Ya and patted her head, "She's a good child!"
"Auntie, Erbao went to the fields to find Grandpa and the others, he should be back soon!" Liuya was a little embarrassed, she had forgotten to say it in her haste.
Upon hearing this, Su Xia thought it would be better if she came back; she had no desire to see Wu Ya at all.
Before long, everyone from the old house returned. Chen's father immediately rushed into the room and looked at Chen's mother who was sitting there.
Her body went limp instantly, startling Su Xia so much that she tried to go over, but Chen Jianjun, who had rushed over, caught her.
"Old man...!"
Chen's mother let out a roar, and Su Xia's face turned pale. This was quite a shock!
Five minutes later, Chen's father also drank the medicine Su Xia gave him, which tasted a bit like nitroglycerin.
"Dad...you scared me to death!" Chen Jianjun said anxiously.
Mr. Chen waved his hand and looked at Mrs. Chen, "How are you?"
Chen's mother, her eyes red and swollen, said, "It's nothing, I'm taking the medicine from the old man's family, I'm feeling much better now!"
Whew...
"That's good, you scared me to death! I thought you...!"
"Get lost, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Bang....
The group was stunned for a moment, then they saw Chen Jiandang holding Wu Ya's hair and throwing it to the ground.
"Kneel down and kowtow to your grandparents to admit your mistake. If you don't want to, get out now!"
No one in the room spoke. Chen Jiandang was anxious just now. After confirming that his parents were alright, he rushed out and everyone knew to go find Wu Ya.
But seeing him kneeling on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly, until there was a pool of blood on the ground....
No one stopped, and no one made a sound!
"Okay, stop bumping your head, it's upsetting to watch!" Chen's mother interrupted.
"Mother, this brat has made you so angry! It would be too lenient to not beat her to death!"
"Shut up too! How can a father keep beating his child to death?"
"If it weren't for you and your second son's family neglecting Wuya, would we be at this bottom?" Mr. Chen said seriously.
Chen Jiandang and Xia Laidi dared not reply, and lowered their heads. Wu Ya hid to the side, shrinking her body.
She saw her grandmother and remembered her older sisters getting married. Everyone was turning 30, and she was getting married soon too, so she thought about wanting one.
But to her surprise, Chen's mother immediately disagreed. "You've already disgraced the Chen family so much, and you still want money? Bah—you're shameless!"
Wu Ya was furious at the time, with only one thought in her mind: "Why is it that everyone else got it, but she didn't?"
Enraged, she yelled, "You're being biased! Are you trying to give it to Niu Niu? Let me tell you, no way! If you don't give it to me, I'm going straight to the captain and reporting you for favoritism!"
Wu Ya is now filled with regret. She was just jealous of Niu Niu, so when she thought that Niu Niu would get married soon and Chen's mother would definitely give her more money than the other girls, she lost her temper and blurted it out.
But I never expected that Grandma would be so angry that she would faint.
"Alright, let alone the second son, he wouldn't want to come even if he had two sons. The best we can do now is to get this brat out of here as soon as possible, and it would be best if she never came back!" Mother Chen said to Wu Ya with disgust.
"Second brother, second brother's wife, take her back immediately, lock the door, and don't let her out until she gets married!"
Because of this, Chen Jianguo returned at noon, and Su Xia immediately recognized that it must have been someone from the village who went to find him.
"My parents are fine; they're both lying in the house!"
Chen Jianguo nodded seriously. "I'll go take a look!"
Su Xia went to cook, thinking that Mr. and Mrs. Chen had fallen ill this time, so she should cook something good to nourish their bodies.
So they just killed a chicken. Su Xia killed the chicken, boiled water, and scalded the feathers...
There were also twins next to them, who weren't scared at all. They even pursed their little mouths, clearly showing their desire.
"Mother, why are you killing a chicken today?"
"No meat lately, I'll eat ki to replenish my body!"
"Mom, can my sister and I have chicken legs?"
Su Xia looked at Xiao Bao, her eyes full of cunning.
"This is for Grandpa and Grandma to nourish their bodies!"
Xiao Bao was taken aback, then looked at the chicken that looked like it had been slaughtered. After hesitating for a while, he said, "Can we give Grandpa and Grandma one chicken leg each? Can my sister and I share the chicken wings?"
puff....
Su Xia was both pleased and amused. When stewing the chicken, she made a point of reserving all the chicken legs and wings.
The casserole was placed on the stove, and Su Xia took out some ingredients from her spatial storage, including jujubes, ginseng slices, and angelica root...
It's the kind of Korean ginseng chicken soup ingredients, in a packet, which is easy to put in and easy to take out.
"Mom, all the dishes are ready!"
Su Xia nodded, "We're having rice tonight. You go wash the rice, and I'll cook the dishes." Niu Niu obediently washed and rinsed the rice.
Su Xia wasn't idle either; she took out the salted pork and stir-fried it with green beans, stir-fried it with chili peppers, smashed cucumber, and scrambled eggs with tomatoes...
Finally, a plate of green vegetables completes the hearty dinner. Liu Ya added fuel to the fire while sipping water.
"Auntie, it smells so good!"
"Xiang, Liuya, eat more later!" Su Xia looked at her little nose, which was always upturned, and found it very cute.
Liu Ya grinned happily and nodded emphatically.
The family has gotten used to Liu Ya staying and eating at Su Xia's place for the past few days.
Strangely, Liu Chunxia didn't come to call anyone, not even once. Dinner consisted of rice noodles, steamed buns, stir-fried green beans, and chili peppers, cucumbers, scallions, and dipping sauce.
It can't compare to Su Xia's, but compared to the village, the lard used to stir-fry the green beans smells better and tastes even better.
Liu Chunxia took out a plate of eggs, which was not much. She divided it in half, giving half to Gouwa and half to Chen Jianjun.
The father and son started eating, and after a while, Gouwa looked up and said, "Mom, is Sister Ge eating at Uncle Ge's house again?"
Liu Chunxia was taken aback and looked at the man. Chen Jianjun immediately looked at her and said, "Didn't you say she wasn't coming back on her own?"
Liu Chunxia felt guilty....
The little dog was still young, and he was envious of his older sister eating delicious food at Auntie's house. He kept saying, "My older sister never eats at home, she always eats at Auntie's house. Mom never goes to call anyone..."
"I went to call her, but Mother wouldn't let me, saying that Sister Ge herself didn't want to come back, so why call her?"
Gouwa, oblivious to his parents' mood, asked Chen Jianjun, "Dad, when are we having meat? I heard from Erbao that Auntie makes delicious food every day!"
"When Uncle Jin comes back, he'll definitely cook meat again. I even saw Auntie kill a chicken just now, saying it's for Grandpa and Grandma!"
"Dad, I want to eat chicken too!"
Chen Jianjun's eyes grew increasingly fierce as he looked at the guilty Liu Chunxia.
*Slap slap...*
The sound of a slap startled Gouwa, who widened his eyes and ran out, crying, "Grandpa, Grandma... my dad hit my mom again!!"
