Xia Hongxia had always felt that her mouth was sharp. But today, Shi Chuxue's words left him speechless.
Madam Liu was furious when she heard this." I say, Old Fourth, are you done yet? Bring back a little something to make a face." Either you bring a good-looking one, or you have to be filial. You want everyone to be grateful to you? Who do you think you are? You are only the daughter-in-law of the Xia family.”
" Mother..." Shi Chuxue had had enough. She didn't know the rules here when she first married, so she endured it.
Now, she was picking on things when she was giving them. Moreover, she was clearly in the right. In the eyes of this biased mother-in-law, she was a bad person.
"Granny, I know I was wrong. I really shouldn't have brought this back. She brought it back and even made the whole family angry. So I'm changing now. I'll take this thing away and give it to my grandfather and the others to eat. There's nothing wrong with that, right? I believe that whether it's grandfather, the others, or the neighbors, they won't make up for the defective meat I gave them.”
She had brought back some knives that were not very good-looking. However, this was not to the extent of being despised to such an extent.
When Liu-shi heard that they were going to send it away, she looked at the meat. Actually, it wasn't that it didn't look good. After cutting it out, wasn't it the same as eating it?
He immediately put on a fierce face." Alright, I've brought it back. Just make do with it." We can't let your Aunt Liu be disappointed.”
Shi Chuxue pursed her lips and didn't say anything else. She turned around and went into the house to change her clothes.
Liu-shi shouted," Come back, the rice hasn't been cooked yet. Cook it." He would also wash the clothes later.”
Shi Chuxue turned around and silently started the fire.
Doing more work wouldn't tire her out.
When the sky was completely dark, Xia Laosan returned with his second son.
The Xia family was the second son of the Xia family. When the eldest son of the Xia family was at home, he would work.
People like Xia Laowu usually felt pain here and discomfort there.
She had made Liu-shi happy every day, but she didn't want to do the work on the mountain.
"Fourth Brother's family is back. How is the child?”
At least someone still remembered to ask her man, Shi Chuxue answered while cutting the meat. "Father, Hanzhi's leg is still being treated. Although the effect was not obvious now, there was no more pus. It was no longer painful to walk a few steps like before. According to the old doctor, she would recover after some rest.”
Xia Laosan was delighted to hear that. He rubbed his hands and giggled. "It's good that he's well. This child is also a healthy person. In the future, the two of you will support each other.”
The father-in-law was a kind person, but the mother-in-law was too domineering and controlled this father-in-law tightly.
"Father, we will. Wash your hands and go eat."
"Sigh, I'll be right there."
Xia Laosan happily went to wash his hands.
Halfway through the meal, Shi Chuxue told him that she would be staying in the city for a while.
"Hehe, I said that this meat was brought in wrongly. So he doesn't want to leave it at home to do work. Recently, our family has been busy with the spring plowing. All of them are finding excuses to not be at home. What do they take our family for?”
Shi Chuxue lowered her head, not wanting to bother with this mother-in-law.
Third Brother Xia mumbled," Fourth Brother…once your legs recover, you might even be able to work in the government office in the future." Otherwise, he wouldn't have made much money after farming for a year.”
Madam Liu's eyes widened." Alright, just eat your food. You have a daughter-in-law, so you're always speaking up for her. I'm your wife. I've never seen such a useless man."”
Third Brother Xia also lowered his head and didn't say anything.
The table that Shi Chuxue was sitting at only had a few slices of meat. Shi Chuxue was considerate of Miss Chen and Miss Li, so she didn't take these meat dishes.
He only picked some peanuts and the like.
After the girls finished the meat, they also snatched the big bowl of peanuts.
"Second Sister-in-law, have some of this."
Shi Chuxue put the last piece of braised food into Consort Li's bowl, who was silently eating. The latter raised her head and looked at her in a daze, then immediately lowered her head in embarrassment. " Hmm…" This sister-in-law of his looked pretty good.
While eating, Shi Chuxue observed the two sisters-in-law again.
Sister-in-law was a person who stuttered a little when she spoke. Moreover, she seemed to have a little body odor. Therefore, she did not attract the likes of the boss or the mother-in-law. As for Second Sister-in-law Li, although she looked like a pretty and delicate woman, she was very timid and felt inferior.
She had been married to the Xia family for almost seven years, but she only gave birth to two daughters. Madam Liu would always say that she gave birth to a good-for-nothing, useless, and complained all kinds of things. I'll go back and curse. Therefore, Consort Li usually stayed at home when she had nothing to do. She would never go out unless there was something special. Usually, even if she spoke a little louder, she would be so scared that her entire body would tremble.
On the other hand, Hongfeng's sister-in-law saw that she had been sizing up these people and advised her," Fourth Sister-in-law, you should eat too.”
"Sigh, I'm almost done." Shi Chuxue put down her bowl and didn't eat any more.
"Fourth Brother, you and Hongfeng will wash the dishes and clean up later. First Brother will push the millstone. Second Brother, wash our clothes.”
"Yes, mother."
At night, the daughters-in-law had to push the millstones and wash the clothes.
He had to be busy for almost two hours before he could get busy with his own matters. A large family had a large population. It was enough to serve the family food, drink, sleep, and the livestock.
However, there were still a few people at home who liked to be lazy and cunning. The work was on their daughters-in-law's shoulders, so it was even more tiring.
"By the way, why didn't Hong Xia come to our table?”
There were many people, so the women and children were placed at the same table.
However, Xia Ba, Hong Xia, and even Hua Hua were eating at another table.
Ruhua was preparing to give birth to many smart and fat grandchildren because she wanted to take care of her body.
Therefore, he was allowed to eat at another table. As for Hong Xia?
"My sister has always been a good talker since she was young. She also likes to badmouth my sisters-in-law in front of my mother. Therefore, my mother loves her very much. She also likes to dress up. My mother said that she is blessed and will definitely marry a good son-in-law in the future, so she said that she can't eat too bad.”
This was also a reason!
Shi Chuxue smiled lightly as she looked at her sister-in-law's swollen hands. On the back of his hand, there were all kinds of scars left behind by years of hard work. On the other hand, Hong Xia's hands were as beautiful as the girls in the city. Speaking of which, this Liu-shi really treated whichever girl was prettier a little better. Poor Hongfeng, he was just a little lacking in looks.
