"Xiaoyu, you have to bring our homemade food too, like pickled meat and the kimchi and pickles you made."
"Should we take them too? Can't we just do it in the capital? You can take the meat and dried goods, but don't take the pickles. Give them to the farm folks. The jars are pretty heavy."
"Then bring a few jars to eat on the road. It's hot and I don't have much appetite. I really just want to eat the discount."
"Okay, I'll bring some back to the village chief, Uncle Shunzi, when I go back to the village someday. We can have some snacks with the porridge."
"Okay, give her some of your milk too, she loves it the most."
Uh, after going around like this, it seems like there is nothing left, it’s still a little bit not enough.
"Hey, Dad, you've been so nice to me lately."
Zhao Dashu smiled and said, "Why would I kiss her? The old lady will never get up again after lying like this. It's just a matter of words. Why should I bother with her?"
Your grandma is different from your grandpa. She knows how to handle current affairs better than your grandpa. Didn’t you see that she dealt with your uncles so smoothly? I thought, let’s just leave it at that and not mention the past.
As long as she's well and happy, I'm willing to join the other two in letting her live out her days in peace. If your father were still alive, who knows what kind of fuss he'd make. He might even be pissed off when I pass the imperial examination."
Zhao Xiaoyu thought about it and realized that the old lady was indeed less of a worry. "To be honest, grandma is more sensible than grandpa. She knows what's best for her."
"That's right, your grandfather is a stubborn old man. I used to think he had your second uncle, but in the end I found out that he only had your eldest uncle."
Zhao Dashu sometimes felt thankful that his father had passed away early, as it relieved him of so many worries. Take money, for example. If his father had been able to rip off his eldest and second brothers so much, wouldn't he die in front of them?!
Sometimes I hope he can live to see how bad my vision is. Only Zhao Dashu can bring honor to the Zhao family.
Ultimately, he was unwilling to accept the fact that his father looked down upon him his entire life. Even after he passed away, he still believed that he was not as good as his eldest son.
Now he's dragging me into cheating them, and I feel a sense of revenge.
It is very pleasant to be unhappy when others pass by you who you dislike!
Zhao Zhaodi has been feeling unwell these past few days. She didn't do much work at the Lin family before, but since she came back from the banquet, her mother-in-law has deliberately assigned her a lot of work.
But she couldn't refuse. The man didn't feel sorry for her. He said that he heard that when she was in the Zhao family, she had more sex than she does now. If she could do it before, why can't she do it now?
What it means is that she is pretending to be uncomfortable and just wants to be lazy and not work.
Zhao Zhaodi had no words to express her grievances. She felt really uncomfortable. She had felt very suffocated since she came back from the banquet that day.
The Lin family had noticed that she had looked pale and haggard recently, but no one wanted to ask about her well-being, nor did they intend to reduce the amount of work she had to do.
You enjoyed yourself so much before, shouldn't you work harder to make up for it now?
Besides, who would a country person pretend to be weak for? If they knew she was such a loser, if they knew Zhao Laosan's family really couldn't take advantage of them at all, they wouldn't marry her, let alone wait for her for three generations.
She—doesn’t deserve it!
"Mom, I feel a little dizzy."
When Zhao Zhaodi came back from the field, she was shaking with fear as she walked. She thought she might have had heatstroke. Although she was wearing a straw hat, she was still extremely hot.
"Why are you dizzy? I'm an old woman of my age, and I can't go to the fields. If you don't have the life of a lady, don't pretend to be sick. Don't you see what you have? Why...ah, second brother, your wife fainted!"
Zhao Zhaodi fainted. She didn't know whether she fainted from the heat or from being angry with her mother-in-law. In any case, she felt like the world was spinning, and then she fell down. She felt quite comfortable when she fell on the scalding ground.
