The chicken was an old hen, weighing about four or five pounds. Jiang Shanshan put two ginseng roots into the pot and made a big pot, enough for the whole family to drink.
Now her family members are used to her using a few ginseng roots to make soup from time to time, so when they had ginseng chicken soup today, everyone unanimously chose not to ask and just drank and ate.
"Oh, it seems like we came at the right time. What kind of soup is this? It smells so good. Do you have any more? Give us a bowl too." Just then, Zhang Xiangcao, who had moved back home just after the Chinese New Year, came over with her twin daughters.
Jiang Shanshan called her "Second sister-in-law" and then served her a bowl of chicken soup.
Zhang Xiangcao quickly put her two daughters on the sofa. Fortunately, her two daughters were used to being alone. After their mother put them on the sofa and left them alone, the two sisters did not cry. One of them was sucking her hands and the other was biting her feet.
After Zhang Xiangcao took the chicken soup that Jiang Shanshan served her, she quickly took a sip. The next second, an intoxicated expression appeared on her face.
"It's chicken soup. It's delicious and contains ginseng. I haven't had such a delicious soup since I moved back. My third sister-in-law is so lucky to be able to drink this kind of chicken soup every day." After Zhang Xiangcao finished speaking, she quickly drank two more sips of chicken soup.
She had just taken two sips when her arm was suddenly hit hard by her mother-in-law who was holding chopsticks.
The pain in her arm almost made Zhang Xiangcao spit out the soup in her mouth.
She looked at Yu Guifang with a wronged look on her face, "Mom, how did I offend you again? You want to hit me again. It hurts."
"I think it hurts you to death. Check your conscience. Are you still a human being? Your third brother and his wife have been so good to your family. Check your conscience and see if it hurts." Yu Guifang spitted at her second daughter-in-law's face.
Zhang Xiangcao kept squinting her eyes, and the saliva on her face almost made it impossible for her to open her eyes.
But she couldn't reach out to wipe it off, for she was afraid that if she did, her mother-in-law would spit at her again.
After scolding for a while, Yu Guifang didn't want to scold anymore. The main reason was that this second daughter-in-law was a brainless person. As long as she was in front of her, she couldn't help scolding her.
"In the future, don't come here every day when you have nothing to do. I get less angry when you are not here. I get angry when you come. I tell you, if you come here every day, I will die a few years shorter. I tell you, I still want to live a few more years. Don't come here when you have nothing to do." Yu Guifang pointed at her second daughter-in-law and scolded her angrily.
Zhang Xiangcao said in a low voice with a look of grievance, "Mom, I'm taking care of two children by myself. It's very difficult. If I didn't come, how would I have been able to take care of them all by myself? Jianjun is not at home during the day, and at night, he is out and about, exhausted. He has no time to help me. Do you know how tired I am?"
"What's the matter? You take care of two children at home every day, and now you are crying in front of me because you feel wronged, right? Are you living such a good life now that you have forgotten what your life was like in the village?" Yu Guimang asked her loudly without any sympathy on his face.
Yu Guifang doesn't feel sorry for her second daughter-in-law, mainly because she is the type of person who cannot be loved. If she does, she will become arrogant towards her.
