Chapter 12
"Mom, why did you ask my second brother to call me back?" Liu Jinfeng, who had just stepped into the courtyard gate, asked hurriedly when she saw Old Liu Shi.
"Why did you bring the child back?" Liu Shi said somewhat dissatisfied after seeing the child in Liu Jinbao's arms.
"My mother-in-law asked me to bring the child back. Besides, you didn't ask my second brother to tell me not to bring the child home." Liu Jinfeng said after taking the child from Liu Jinbao.
"Come on, Tieniu, call grandma." Liu Jinfeng said to the child.
"Grandma." Tieniu leaned on Liu Jinfeng's arms and looked at Old Liu Shi and called softly.
"Yeah," Liu Shi replied casually.
"Mom, I'm hungry, is there anything to eat?" Liu Jinfeng put the child on the ground and let him play by himself, and then found a chair and sat down, and said.
"Yes, yes, yes, mom will make it for you right away." Old Liu Shi nodded and said, then turned around and prepared to go into the kitchen to make food for Liu Jinfeng.
"Mom, make more. I'm hungry after walking all the way back and forth." Liu Jinbao also sat on the chair and said loudly to Old Liu Shi.
"Got it." Liu Shi replied.
Soon, Old Liu Shi brought out two bowls and gave one of the bowls to the youngest son. There were two boiled eggs in the bowl. Liu Jinbao looked at the two boiled eggs and felt sour. This thing was so precious at home. Usually, his mother would occasionally take one out to make a bowl of steamed egg custard for the two grandsons. Even his eldest brother and he could not eat it. Who knew that his mother would become so generous when his younger sister came back, and he was also taking advantage of his younger sister?
"Do you want to eat it? What are you staring at? Give it all to your sister." Liu Shi held the bowl and frowned at Liu Jinbao who had not taken the bowl.
"Eat it, why won't I eat it? I'm starving to death." Liu Jinbao quickly reached out, took the bowl from his mother, and glanced at the other bowl in his mother's hand. My goodness, there are actually three eggs in that bowl. His mother is really partial!
In the room, Xiao Liu Shi nudged her son and whispered, "Go, go to your father to eat delicious food."
When Old Liu Shi came back from the town, the child had already gone out to play with his father. Later, he was brought back by his father, but his father arranged for Old Liu Shi to go to Liu Jinfeng's house, and he stayed with Xiao Liu Shi.
"Did my grandma also give Dad candy?" Liu Wenjie asked.
"No, it's more delicious than candy. Go quickly. If you don't go, your dad will eat it all." Xiao Liu Shi urged.
When he heard that his father was going to eat it all, Liu Wenjie immediately ran out and ran directly to his father.
"Dad, I want to eat too."
Liu Jinbao had already eaten one quickly, and just when he was about to eat another, his son ran out and shouted for food. So he had to give it to his son with some reluctance.
Xiao Liu Shi looked through the window and saw that her son had already started eating. Then she slowly came out of the room with her hands on her waist.
"Oh, so the second sister-in-law is home! I thought she was out!" Liu Jinfeng said in a somewhat sarcastic tone while eating the egg.
"So it's my sister-in-law who's here. I'm so sorry. You see, I've always been sleepy since I got pregnant with this child. If Wenjie hadn't pushed me awake just now, I really wouldn't have known that you were here." Xiao Liu Shi said with a smile.
Eat, eat, eat. She only knows how to eat when she comes back. It is said that a daughter who is married off is like water poured out, but why does her water always flow back?
Xiao Liu Shi was very dissatisfied with Liu Jinfeng every time she came home, but she didn't dare to show it. After all, daughters and daughters-in-law have never been equal in Old Liu Shi's heart.
Liu Jinfeng glanced at Xiao Liu Shi, then fed the egg in the bowl to Tieniu, and then picked up the bowl and drank up all the soup in it. She wiped her mouth with her sleeve, then handed the empty bowl to Old Liu Shi and said,
"Mom, I want to eat meat tonight. I haven't eaten meat for a long time."
"Okay, okay, okay, Mom will ask your second brother to buy meat. Oh, this Lin family is really not good. Look how thin my daughter has become." Liu Shi took the bowl and said distressed, then took the empty bowl into the house to get money to let Liu Jinfeng buy meat.
Xiao Liu Shi: What thin, what the hell, mother-in-law can see that my sister-in-law has lost weight. I am a daughter-in-law, and I am still pregnant with the Liu family's child! I didn't see my mother-in-law say to buy me a piece of meat to supplement my nutrition and she is reluctant to even give me an egg. As soon as my sister-in-law came back, she opened her mouth, and the old woman took the money happily.
Xiao Liu Shi felt aggrieved for a while. She felt uncomfortable everywhere when she looked at Liu Jinfeng. Even her words were full of sourness.
"Oh, mother-in-law still loves little sister-in-law. As long as little sister-in-law asks, mother-in-law will immediately go to get it. Take the meat, for example. Mother will only buy some meat during the Chinese New Year. Usually, even if we want to eat it, our mother is reluctant to buy it. Today, as soon as their little sister-in-law came back, she said she wanted to eat meat, so her mother immediately went to get money to buy it. Alas, this daughter-in-law is not as good as her own daughter."
"What are you talking about, second sister-in-law? How can a mother not love her own daughter? Don't you think so? Is it possible that your mother treats you badly every time you go back to your parents' home?" Liu Jinfeng replied.
When they were cousins, their relationship was still okay, but once they became sisters-in-law, it was a little different.
"What are you talking about? Your sister rarely comes back. How did she offend you?" Old Liu Shi came out of the house with money and said angrily to Xiao Liu Shi.
"I'm just envious of how good mother is to my sister! Look, I've been pregnant for five months, and Mother hasn't been willing to buy me meat to supplement my diet." Xiao Liu Shi said with a look of grievance.
"Okay, okay, I'll give you two more pieces tonight." After Liu Shi gave the money to Liu Jinbao, she turned around and said to Xiao Liu Shi.
Liu Jinbao took the money and took his son to the village butcher Ma's house to buy meat.
"Oh, my second sister-in-law has been married for a few years, and she's just pregnant with her second child... Look at me, Tiedan is just three years old, Tieniu has just learned to walk, and now I'm pregnant for three months. My mother-in-law praises me for giving birth easily." Liu Jinfeng said with some pride while touching her belly.
"What? You're pregnant again..."
Xiao Liu Shi hadn't said anything yet, but Old Liu Shi on the side asked angrily.
"Well, yes!" Liu Jinfeng looked at her mother strangely. Why did she feel that her mother was a little unhappy?
Old Liu Shu: It's bad, it's been three months, how can I get the boy from the Du family? He's not a fool. Why doesn't she let Jinfeng abort the baby in her belly?
Liu Shi thought in her mind and said this out loud.
"Jinfeng, you already have two sons. Why don't you abort the one in your belly? Don't worry, I will definitely make sure that the Lin family won't find out that you aborted it yourself. Of course, if the Lin family divorces you for this, I will definitely find you a family that is much better than the Lin family."
"Mom, what are you talking about... Are you crazy? You actually want me to abort this child. My Lin San is still counting on me to give him a daughter!" Liu Jinfeng looked at her mother in disbelief, thinking that her mother must have a problem with her brain to say such a thing.
Xiao Liu Shi, who was standing aside, was also shocked by Old Liu Shi's words and opened her eyes wide. She always felt that her mother-in-law was a little strange when she came back from the town today. She hurriedly asked her son to call her daughter back, and now she even asked her daughter to give up the baby in her belly.
Xiao Liu Shi couldn't help but touch her belly, a little frightened. She was seen carefully and slowly backing away, thinking in her heart: Could it be that my mother-in-law bumped into something today? Otherwise, how could she say such incredible words? No, I have to tell Jinbao when he comes back later.
Old Liu Shi stared at Liu Jinfeng's belly, wishing she could stare the child in her belly down. She stared at Liu Jinfeng so hard that she pulled Tieniu to block in front of her belly. Looking at her mother's appearance, Liu Jinfeng felt a little terrified.
"Oh, my sister is back. This is your youngest son, Tieniu! He is so big now, the last time I saw him was when he was one month old, and now he can walk!" Wang Shi came in from outside and said after seeing Liu Jinfeng and her son in her arms. Wang Shi was not as careful as Xiao Liu Shi, so she didn't notice the strange expressions of the three people.
Originally, after Old Liu Shi came back from the town, Wang Shi also came back. But after Old Liu Shi scolded Liu Jinyuan, she quietly ran out when Old Liu Shi was not paying attention. She didn't want Old Liu Shi to point the spearhead at her after scolding her son.
Xiao Liu Shi, who was originally going to hide in her room quietly, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw Wang Shi coming back.
"Mom, my sister is back, what are we going to cook for dinner?" Wang Shi asked. Every time her sister-in-law came back, her mother-in-law would make delicious food.
"Eat, eat, eat, just eat. I didn't marry you back to my house to be a guest." Old Liu Shi couldn't get angry at her daughter, and Wang Shi just filled in to let her vent her anger.
Wang Shi was a little confused by the scolding. Why did she just come back and ask a question, and she was scolded again? What did she do wrong, or what did she say wrong? She was scolded even when she greeted her sister. In the past, she would be scolded if she didn't greet her sister. Today, she was scolded again. Wang Shi felt quite wronged.
But this time when her sister-in-law came back, why did her mother-in-law seem a little unhappy? The younger sister-in-law was invited back by her mother-in-law, not by herself, so why would her mother-in-law be unhappy?
After being scolded, Wang Shi finally saw that her mother-in-law had a bad look on her face. This can be considered hindsight! Seeing Wang Shi being scolded by her mother-in-law, Xiao Liu Shi couldn't help but roll her eyes secretly. Wang Shi is really a person who can't read faces. Didn't she see that her mother-in-law was unhappy? She even approached herself, she really deserved to be scolded.
After being scolded, Wang Shi didn't dare to look at Old Liu Shi anymore, so she could only look at Xiao Liu Shi, and Xiao Liu Shi shook her head silently at her, telling her not to ask more questions.
Perhaps she was shocked by her mother's words today. Liu Jinfeng, who usually raised her eyebrows and raised her eyes to Wang Shi, politely replied to Wang Shi for the first time, "Sister-in-law, you are back."
But Wang Shi was so shocked that she almost couldn't close her mouth. Did the sun rise from the west today...?
Today's dinner was a bit dull. Except for Liu Wentao and Liu Wenjie who were arguing over a piece of meat, the adults in the family were silent. While Old Liu Shi was serving the meal, Old Liu said to Liu Jinfeng earnestly, "Jinfeng, your life is not bad now. Don't listen to your mother blindly and mess up your good life. Your mother is old now and her mind is not clear sometimes."
Old Liu didn't know what Old Liu Shi said to her daughter today. Otherwise, he would be so angry that he couldn't eat dinner.
"Dad, I know." Liu Jinfeng nodded. Judging from what her mother said today, she was indeed a bit confused.
Xiao Liu Shi felt that her mother-in-law was not confused, but must have bumped into something when she went out today. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a chill on her back.
Yuyu: This old woman is crazy!! 😧 Nothing can convince me otherwise.
