Chapter 318 The cannon fodder sister-in-law in the group favorite article (16)
"What is this?"
Lu Cuiping frowned. She could smell the fragrance from a long distance away, so there was no way she could smell it wrong.
Inside the house, Xie Yumian was reading a book. When he heard the commotion outside, he came out and saw Lu Cuiping's face looked wrong.
"What's wrong, Mom?"
"What did our house burn tonight?"
Lu Cuiping pulled her daughter aside, wondering if her daughter had learned to be smart and secretly hid it after making delicious food.
Xie Yumian shook his head.
"Nothing done."
“Where did this fragrance come from if I didn’t do anything?”
Upon hearing what she said, Xie Yumian whispered.
"I felt hungry after reading in the afternoon, so I stewed a bowl of egg custard and ate it."
"Eat when you're hungry. Those eggs are meant for you to replenish your body, so where does this taste come from?"
Xie Yumian also smelled the fragrance when she walked out. The fragrance seemed to be magical, and it made the gluttons in her stomach come out.
Looking left and right, Xie Yumian finally looked towards the back room.
"Could it be from the third brother's family?"
This is the only possibility, and from here you can see the smoke coming from the chimney over there.
Lu Cuiping's face darkened, and she was curious and angry. She had heard that when Xie Jian was building a house before, each person who came to help was paid one yuan a day, and they also included meals every day.
In the next few days, word spread throughout the village that Xie Jian had become rich. Every meal had fish and meat. Even those who went to help could eat a lot of meat and fish. She had been murmuring in her heart before, but now she smelled it again. She couldn't sit still due to this smell.
They had just had a quarrel before, and now she was too embarrassed to get close to each other again. At this time, Xie Yumian on the side said something.
"Why don't you let Goudan take a look? He is just a child. He can't control his legs even if he smells the fragrance."
That makes sense.
Just when Jiang Lai was loading up the food and getting ready to eat, a little head popped up timidly, with dirty little hands clasped on his chest, and his dark eyes full of longing.
"Third Aunt."
At this time Xie Jian came over.
"Goudan, what are you doing?"
Goudan quickly turned around and was a little scared when he saw Xie Jian couldn't help but thinking of his grandma's instructions, he just stared at the stove silently.
Jiang Lai smiled.
"Take him to wash his hands and eat."
This is considered the first meal in the new home. There are three dishes and one soup neatly placed on the table, including fish, meat and eggs. Even the vegetable soup has a layer of oily flowers floating in it. Just one meal is enough. It’s enough to feed other people’s homes for a month.
In addition to the pancakes stuck in the fish soup, there was also white rice on the table. The fragrant Goudan was salivating. As soon as Jiang Lai handed over the bowl, he couldn't wait to eat it in his mouth.
The conditions of the Xie family are not bad, but such sumptuous meals are not even seen during the Chinese New Year, let alone cooked so deliciously.
Goudan ate without raising his head, so Xie Jian silently picked up some food for him. In the end, the seven-year-old child ate two full bowls of rice and drank a large bowl of soup until his stomach was so full that he would vomit if he ate any more. Just stopped.
Jiang Lai's attitude towards Goudan was lukewarm. After all, it had nothing to do with her.
Xie Jian felt a little fond of his nephew, and after he had eaten and drank enough, he took out an oil paper bag.
"Take it back and eat it with two cents."
Inside the oil paper bag was a sweet candy corner. The crescent shape was wrapped with a layer of icing sugar. When you bite into it, thick and sweet syrup would flow out. It was a sweet fruit that could only be eaten during the Chinese New Year. Xie Jian gave him a big one directly. Bag.
Just like that, Goudan came back happily holding the oil paper bag. It was already completely dark by this time. He was just about to go back to the house, but when he arrived at the door of the hall, he saw a figure standing guard at the door.
Looking at the wicker in Lu Cuiping's hand, Goudan was so scared that he lost his wits. He stood there holding Tangjiao and didn't dare to move at all.
"Let you go and see, why don't you stay there to celebrate the New Year!"
After saying that, the willow stick came down and spanked Goudan's buttocks. Goudan opened his mouth to cry in pain, and his cries alarmed Liu Suping and Xie Guo in the room.
Liu Suping couldn't sit still and kicked her husband when she heard Goudan's cries.
"Mom is beating the dog balls again!"
Xie Guo turned over, fell asleep, and dealt with it randomly.
"Just hit me. Grandma is teaching your grandson a lesson."
"You don't know how heavy your mother's attack is!"
Liu Suping couldn't bear it, so she threw down the sweater she was knitting and hurried out. Then she saw the beaten dog Dan running all over the yard at a glance, and she quickly stepped forward to protect him.
"Mom, what did he do again?"
"What a shame! If you don't have anything to eat at home, why should you go to other people's houses to eat for free? What's the point of raising you! You have no backbone at all!"
Liu Suping lowered her head and saw that her son's arms were all red, but her eyes were still staring at the oil paper bag in Lu Cuiping's hand.
"Mother, mother..."
Goudan kept crying, and Liu Suping had no choice but to swallow her anger and wait for Lu Cuiping to throw away the wicker and leave cursingly.
"Tell my mother what on earth you did!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu br>
Goudan cried not because he was beaten, but because his candy corner was taken away by his grandma.
Liu Suping then remembered the bag of candies her mother-in-law was carrying, but she didn't expect that she had snatched it from her son.
She burst into angry tears and kicked Xie Guo awake.
"What happened?! What happened again?!"
"Ask your mother! Xie Jian gave Goudan something to eat, but your mother beat him like a dog! She also took away the candy for the child!
What does your mother want? You don’t want to see your grandson, right? ! ”
Xie Guo sat up with a sullen face, and immediately saw his son's arm which was red from being whipped. Liu Suping pulled Goudan's butt off again, and the buttocks were even more swollen with red marks from the wicker whipping.
The woman covered her face and cried, Goudan also cried, and Ermao was woken up and cried together, which made Xie Guo's head grow bigger.
"Did your grandma hit you?"
"Sugar dimes! Ooooh my sugar dimes!"
Goudan didn't care about being beaten, he just wanted his candy dime.
Xie Guo's mood became more and more complicated. After all, he was his own son. How could he not feel distressed after being beaten like this?
It wouldn't matter if Goudan was naughty. The child was beaten like this just because he was greedy and didn't eat other people's things.
"I can't live another day like this! I'll hit you and scold you at will. We come to your house just to be a doormat, right?!"
After saying that, Liu Suping packed up her things and took her two children back to her parents' home early the next morning.
Anyway, Liu Suping's natal family is not bad. Her daughter will live there immediately when she comes back, and she can also help the family cook and do some farm work.
Xie Guo's face had not been good all day. As soon as he got off the ground, he saw Xie Jian walking over with a sickle.
"Do you still know how to come to work?" (End of Chapter)
