As soon as Mrs. Li said this, she was strongly opposed by Li Lai'nan.
"Why? What does it have to do with us? She should be grateful that our Li family is willing to adopt her. A child without a father or mother has no right to make demands here."
Li Lai'nan's voice was so loud that the neighbors could hear it clearly.
Many old ladies leaned against the wall of the Li family's house to listen to gossip.
Li Niuniu hates it most when people say she is an orphan.
Because of her identity, many children refused to play with her and even threw stones at her.
Tears hung on her eyelashes, making her look even more pitiful.
"Do you think I want to be an orphan? If I could choose, who would be willing to be an orphan?" Li Niuniu roared at the top of her lungs.
It's all because of this natural disaster.
Otherwise, she would still be the child of a wealthy factory worker, she could still live in a tube-shaped building and go to primary school for children of the factory workers.
She believed that she was different from these country folk from the beginning.
"Cut your hypocrisy. No one would feel bad for those two drops of cat pee you dropped. Do you think you can live a life of ease just by making yourself sound so pathetic?"
You are so obsessed with dreaming of becoming the eldest daughter of the Su family, but you don’t even realize what kind of person you are.
Do you remember when you first arrived and you instigated my sister to throw the four girls to Dahei Mountain? You think they're just like water in the brain, forgetting everything they learned the day after day? You're still standing here, and you're thankful that killing is now illegal.
If I were a member of the Su family, I would beat you every time I see you. I would never give you the chance to jump around in front of me all the time.
Throw a bone to a dog and it will wag its tail at you. What can you do? It's bad luck for our Li family to meet someone like you. Since you want to leave so badly, the gate is right there. Goodbye."
Li Lai'nan's little mouth chattered like a machine gun, leaving Li Niuniu speechless.
Li Niuniu tugged at the corner of her clothes nervously.
"I don't think so. I just want to have a full meal."
"Oh, oh, oh, so you still think so. Eat enough? Who doesn't want to? Go ask around, who doesn't want to eat enough? If everyone is like you, then why not just not work every day? You can live a good life by just squeezing out a few tears. Only a fool would get up before dawn to go to work in such a miserable state."
Li Lai'nan has complaints against the Li family.
Taking advantage of Li Niuniu's incident, she spoke out her inner thoughts.
Rather than mocking Li Niuniu's wishful thinking, it is more like a warning to myself to be sober and not to fantasize about unrealistic things.
Li Yingnan couldn't bear to see her younger sister being bullied, so she wanted to step forward to stop the fight, but was pushed into the kitchen by Old Lady Li.
"If you dare to say a word for that little bitch today, you'll have to get out with her. We in the Li family don't support people who are disloyal."
Li Yingnan was shocked by what Old Lady Li said.
Li Yingnan squatted at the stove with his head shrunk, not daring to speak.
Only then did Old Mrs. Li return to the yard with satisfaction.
"Woo woo woo, I want to find the village chief. Your Li family is bullying people."
Li Niuniu couldn't argue with him, so she kept saying, "Go find the village chief."
Li Lainan opened the door and said, "Go, go now, go quickly, before it gets completely dark, and you can ask the village chief to find you a place to stay for the night."
Li Niuniu was scared again and stood in the yard in a dilemma.
Li Lai'nan didn't tolerate her and poured the untouched food in Li Niuniu's bowl into his own bowl without any hesitation.
Eating is the most important thing in the world. It’s best if Li Niuniu is not around, as there will be one less person competing with her for food.
The Li family's commotion was so big that it attracted a large number of people to watch the fun.
Mother Su curled her lips in dissatisfaction.
As for a child like Li Niuniu, she would not want to raise her even if she was beaten to death.
Si Ya was so scared by that incident that she had nightmares all night long.
Raising Li Niuniu is like raising a tiger to harm yourself.
Su's mother cursed inwardly: "The Li family is really a troublemaker. Every three days there's a small quarrel, every five days there's a big quarrel. Every time they compare themselves to the Su family, they always have to compare themselves to the Su family." She was almost fed up with people asking about the Su family's situation.
"The village chief is here, please make way."
The crowded crowd made way for a path one person wide.
Seeing that the village chief was alarmed, Old Mrs. Li gave up the idea of keeping Li Niuniu in Old Li's house.
"Village chief, it's great that you're here. Please judge this matter. What's wrong with these meals? Who doesn't eat sweet potato rice and wild vegetable porridge?"
Because Li Yingnan had been watching the fun, there was still some sweet potato rice left in her bowl.
Old Mrs. Li raised her bowl in front of the village chief.
"Everyone, look at this. What's wrong with eating these meals? If we hadn't settled in the water village, we wouldn't even be able to eat this sweet potato rice."
Because she was too excited, Mrs. Li's hands began to tremble.
Li Yingnan carefully raised her hands to hold the bowl that was about to fall.
The people around began to whisper.
"Just be happy that you can have a meal."
"Of course not. If I were, I would have lost my mind with joy."
"Fortunately, I didn't bring such a disaster back home for those few pounds of food."
"The Li family must be regretting this now."
"That's it, and you're still dreaming of living with Old Su's family. Do they have no children or something?"
"What do you know? The Su family has two workers, and the older children are about to graduate from junior high school. They might also be good enough to be workers. The Su family is getting better and better."
"These city people are just different. They have as many tricks as a sieve."
…
Everyone's words dealt a heavy blow to Li Niuniu.
The thin figure seemed to be shaky in the night wind.
