Liao Dahai went into the next room and saw the pig's trotters in the kitchen. He ate most of them in no time.
When Liao's mother saw it, it was too late. There were only a few bones wrapped in pig skin in the pot.
Furious, Liao's mother twisted Liao Dahai's ear and scolded him, "You spendthrift, who told you to eat my food?"
Liao Dahai is fearless, even if it is Liao's mother, he will confront her without hesitation.
"My dad bought these pig's trotters, so what's wrong with me having a few bites as his son?"
"Bullshit! This is for your aunt to produce milk."
"That was my father's money, let go. Believe it or not, I'm going to do it."
"This is outrageous! I'm your elder, and you dare to attack me? If I don't punish you today, I'll take your last name."
Liao's mother chased Liao Dahai with vigorous steps and beat him.
Liao Dahai took the pot away, leaving Liao's mother cursing there.
"It's unfortunate for our family to have such an unfilial son who disobeys his elders and even married that gossipy woman who loves to stir up trouble. A good child has been taught to be a black-hearted person."
Liao's mother was criticizing the plum blossoms next door.
Xiaolan, who was in confinement in the room, frowned.
I finally waited for the pig's trotters, but I didn't expect that bastard Liao Dahai got there first.
The child she gave birth to was Liao Guoming's child, who is Liao Dahai's biological brother after all. Look at him, he doesn't act like an older brother at all.
"Mom, is the soup ready? The child is crying and crying. If I don't give him milk, he will starve to death."
"Pfft, pfft, pfft, stop saying such unlucky things. Just wait, I'll ask Guoming to get you another pig's trotter. Boss, what are you doing staying in the house all day? Chop the firewood in the yard for me."
Liao's mother took off her apron and went to Liao Guoming's house, but was turned away.
It was not until dark that Liao Guoming, who was drunk, showed up.
"Hey, why did you drink so much?"
Because he was drunk, Liao Guoming walked unsteadily and fell into the smelly ditch in the alley.
"Boss, come quickly, Guoming fell into the ditch."
The mother and son took great effort to help Liao Guoming back into the house.
When Liao's mother saw Meihua sitting quietly in the yard, she threw her slippers at her.
"How could there be such a cruel woman like you? You can still sit still even after your husband falls down. What sin did my Liao family commit to marry a daughter-in-law like you?"
"I also want to know what sins I, Meihua, have committed in this life to marry into a family like yours. Anyway, I've been sent back and I'm at the door, so I won't send you off."
Liao's mother wanted to say something.
But when he heard Liao Dahai's voice coming from next door, he was so anxious that he ran away without even having time to put on his shoes.
"Liao Dahai, you dare to come back? Where's my pot? Return it to me."
"I'll give you a broken pot. I don't care about it."
Liao Dahai was like a loach and ran back home in a short while.
"This is for you. Pig's trotter soup. It's a little cold. Please heat it up yourself."
Liao Dahai handed over a bamboo tube.
When the plum blossom was opened, there was milky white pig's trotter soup inside, with a layer of white oil floating on it, which looked very tempting.
"You haven't finished eating?"
"Am I that kind of heartless person? You are my stepmother, and now you are pregnant with my brother. How can my brother grow up if you eat wild vegetables all day? While my father is still drunk, eat them all in a while, don't let them fall into the hands of those ungrateful wolves."
"No, why are you so nice to me all of a sudden?"
In broad daylight, the two of them were like enemies.
"Don't worry about it. Just take good care of the baby and give birth to my little brother. I'll take care of him for you."
Liao Dahai came to the stove for the first time and silently lit the fire for Meihua.
At the dinner table, the mother and son are a rare harmonious scene.
"Why did you change so quickly? Can you tell me the reason?"
Liao Dahai shook his head.
He is a child of eight or nine years old.
She had quarreled with Meihua before because she was afraid that Liao Guoming would have a new love and forget her mother.
And the reason why they stopped making a fuss now was all thanks to what he overheard.
It turned out that after Liao Guoming packed up his food at the state-owned restaurant, he went to his buddy Shuisheng's house to drink.
Little did he know that he was hiding in Shuisheng's son's room drinking pig's trotter soup.
Listening to Liao Guoming's words, one could hear nothing but dissatisfaction with Meihua and disappointment in his son.
Liao Dahai's heart grew colder and colder.
He also said that it was a good thing that Xiaolan gave birth to a big fat boy for him, otherwise he would have no hope in this life.
Xiaolan is his aunt, his uncle's wife, but she gave birth to a child for his father.
At that moment, Liao Dahai realized that whether there was Meihua or not, Liao Guoming would forget his mother.
Since I didn't take it to heart at all, how could I have forgotten about it?
"Ocean, I want another sip."
Shuisheng's son was named Santong. It was said that Shuisheng failed to turn the tide because he lacked a Santong, so he gave his son this name to make up for his regret.
Santong stared at the pig's trotter soup in the pot, his saliva watering.
"No, you've already had two sips. I need to take these home. Let's go find a long bamboo tube in the bamboo forest."
Santong was not greedy. He wiped his saliva and stood up.
"Then Dahai, if you have something delicious in the future, can you share some with me like you do now?"
"Of course you can, but if my dad comes to see your dad in the future, you have to eavesdrop on their conversation and tell me what you hear."
"Okay, I'll tell you."
"Open the window and let's climb out."
"Why? Wouldn't it be faster to go through the door?"
"You're stupid! If we go through the door, they'll know we've been drinking pig's trotter soup."
