Ma Cuihua looked at the simple dugout with disdain, curled her lips, pulled open the door curtain and walked in, looking at the woman sitting on the kang in her clothes, "Sister-in-law, is that enough? Fourth brother has been in a coma for several days? He is definitely not going to survive..."
Yao Xiujuan's eyes were red and swollen as she looked at the newcomers. Her tone was no longer as gentle as usual, but was filled with subtle annoyance. "What? You really want to bury Brother Tian alive? Don't forget, the team leader said that burying someone alive is murder. Aren't you afraid that I will report him to the regiment?"
Ma Cuihua's face changed drastically when she heard this. She glared at Yao Xiujuan and said, "You can guard it if you want. I want to see how long the fourth brother can live!"
After saying that, she snorted coldly, turned around and walked out. When she passed by the door of the main hall, she saw through the crack in the door that her mother-in-law Liu Zhaodi was mending clothes in the house. She rolled her eyes and walked in.
"mother."
Liu Zhaodi glanced up at her and saw the black mark on her shoulder. She lowered her head to continue mending the clothes in her hands and said casually, "You went to Lao Si's place..."
Ma Cuihua was startled and was about to say something when she heard Liu Zhaodi say it again.
"What? Did the fourth brother die?"
Ma Cuihua shook her head when she heard this, "No..."
Liu Zhaodi paused for a moment and then said, "Where's the fourth son's wife? Is she still here?"
Ma Cuihua didn't know what her mother-in-law meant at this moment. Did she care or not? She actually felt strange. Why did her mother-in-law treat Chu Tian so badly? Obviously, among the four brothers, Chu Tian was the most handsome...
After thinking for a moment, he tentatively said, "She's been watching over them the whole time. She doesn't cook, clean up, or do anything. Daya and I cook every day, and she comes over to take away the food for her family of three..."
Upon hearing this, Liu Zhaodi's eyes flashed with disgust. "Tell the fourth daughter-in-law that if she doesn't want to continue like this, get out of our Chu family. Who does she think she is? She's still waiting for her mother-in-law and sister-in-law to serve her?"
A hint of joy flashed in Ma Cuihua's eyes, "Hey, I'll go tell the fourth son's wife right away."
After saying that, he turned and walked out of the main hall. Just as he was about to go to the cave where the fourth brother's family lived, he was grabbed by Chu Jun and dragged into their main house.
Ma Cuihua watched Chu Jun close the door and rubbed her wrist, which had just been touched by Chu Jun, in disgust. "Chu Jun, what are you doing?"
Chu Jun looked timid, mustering up the courage to stammer, "Cuihua, no matter what, we are still brothers. Can you, can you tell mother to let her..."
Before she finished speaking, Ma Cuihua angrily scolded, "Who is my brother? You and me? Your mother herself doesn't like him and wishes he would die immediately. If you want to say it, go ahead and say it yourself..."
After saying this, she no longer looked at Chu Jun who was hesitant to speak, turned around, opened the door and prepared to go out. As soon as she opened the door, she saw her eldest daughter Daya about to push the door in. When she saw that it was her who opened the door, she looked at her with a frightened expression on her face. Ma Cuihua nodded her head with her finger in disgust.
"What are you looking at? What's so good about it? Have you finished the work you were asked to do?"
Daya lowered her head and whispered, "Mother, mother, it's already done..."
Ma Cuihua looked down on Chu Jun and was more attracted to the eldest daughter, whose personality and appearance were similar to Chu Jun. She pushed away Daya who was blocking the door.
"Go away. I'm annoyed by the sight of you."
“Ouch…”
Daya fell to the ground in the snow, watching her mother walk towards her fourth uncle's cave, her eyes slightly red. She couldn't understand why her mother treated her so badly? She was obviously her mother's eldest daughter, and she was obviously the most obedient, even more obedient than her second sister and youngest brother...
Chu Jun heard the noise and came out to see Daya who had fallen to the ground. He hurried forward to help her up and said, "Daya, you, don't blame your mother..."
"If you want to blame someone, blame Dad for being incompetent."
Daya's eyes were red and she shook her head, "Dad, I, I'm going to chop wood..."
It was winter now, and the crops were only planted once a year in the Northwest, so there wasn't much farm work to do in the fields during the winter. However, even though there was no farm work, every household still had their own work to do. She was the oldest grandchild of the Chu family, and usually she, her aunt, and her uncle did all the chores together. But after her uncle fell off the roof a few days ago, her aunt stopped doing anything, so now she had to do all the housework by herself...
