Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family

Chapter 49: Chapter 46: Shoes Wear Out from Being Worn

Translator: 549690339

After Di Yelei’s previous hunting experience, Liu Sisi naturally did not worry too much this time.

She diligently cleaned and organized the inside and outside of the house, and even went out to dig a basket of wild vegetables.

She dug up some daylily seedlings along the way and planted a whole circle along the outer perimeter of Di’s family’s fence.

The wild daylilies rarely bloom, but after transplanting, as long as the environment and temperature are suitable, these daylily seedlings can bloom and grow rapidly. For the next few years, they don’t need to be specially managed. By summer, there will be a constant supply of daylilies that can be harvested.

Pick them up in the morning when the flower buds are about to open, blanch them with boiled water, then dry them for use. Not only does this add a dish to the table, but it also saves money and doesn’t take up much space. This is also the main reason why Liu Sisi chose it for cultivation.

The potato seedlings she planted have also revived, and it seems that it won’t be long before she can pick potato seedlings to eat. Unfortunately, this plot of land is simply not big enough, so she can only grow a small amount of vegetables for her own consumption.

The chive roots that Guihua’s son Zhang Yun sent her were in Liu Sisi’s hands at this moment.

Zhang Yun brought over chives with roots attached yesterday. She cut off the chives to eat, and these chive roots were planted by her around the outer perimeter of the potato field.

The chive is very easy to plant. Besides using roots to plant, the method of inserting wheat into garlic can also be used to get chives. Chives don’t need to be tended to frequently after they are planted, and don’t take up much space. They can be planted anywhere in front and behind the house. For Liu Sisi, who has no land to use, growing chives is the best thing.

As the day gradually darkened, Liu Sisi finally put away her gardening tools and got up to prepare dinner.

A burst of noisy voices came from a distance, and Liu Sisi unexpectedly heard YingEr’s crying. Alarmed, she quickly closed the room door and ran towards where the sound was coming from.

At the weeping willow bank at the entrance of the village, a group of children of varying ages was making a fuss about something. YingEr’s crying was coming from the crowd.

Liu Sisi shouted loudly, but her voice was completely suppressed by the noisy crowd.

Anxious, she did not care about anything else and forcefully parted the crowd and squeezed in.

Inside, Di Xuan was gritting his teeth, fighting with a chubby kid who was much taller and bigger than him. The two boys were grabbing each other’s shoulders, refusing to let go of each other’s clothes. YingEr stood on the side, pulling at Xuan’er’s clothes and crying shrilly.

“Stop! Stop! You two let go! Why are you fighting?”

Liu Sisi forcefully intervened, forcibly separating the two children.

Only then did Liu Sisi realize that Di Xuan’s mouth was continuously bleeding, and the chubby kid he was fighting with had several long scratch marks on his face, which were especially noticeable on his plump white face.

“The Di’s young wife is here, run!”

Upon seeing Liu Sisi appear, the group of children suddenly shouted and scattered in all directions, running away at a great speed.

Liu Sisi had no time to deal with these naughty kids at the moment, her attention was completely focused on Di Xuan, who was stubbornly trying to rush over and wrestle with the other boy again.

“Di Xuan, what are you making a fuss about? Stand still for me now!”

Liu Sisi quickly grabbed Di Xuan’s hand and forcibly held him behind her.

“Mom, YingEr is so scared! Wuuu…”

Little YingEr, who had been terrified long ago, sobbed until she lost her voice, and then fiercely buried her face in Liu Sisi’s chest, bawling her eyes out.

“Let go of me! Let go! If he dares to insult my mother, I will beat him to death! Beat him to death!”

With a hideous expression of hatred on his face, Di Xuan struggled desperately to free himself from Liu Sisi’s grip, preparing to pounce again.

The little chubby boy across from them didn’t show any mercy either. Taking advantage of Liu Sisi holding Di Xuan, he shamelessly attacked again, aiming two punches at Di Xuan’s back. But Liu Sisi’s quick reflexes stopped him.

Seeing that he couldn’t hit anyone, the chubby boy refused to back down, and he even punched Liu Sisi, yelling angrily, “You bastard child, your mother gave birth to you but never taught you anything, only a lousy person like you would hide behind a woman’s skirt. Have some courage and come at me! Come at me and fight me! Pah! Little mongrel!”

This stinging remark set a fire in Liu Sisi’s heart!

“Shut up! At such a young age, you spew such vile words, what will you be like when you grow up?”

What Liu Sisi never expected was the little chubby boy’s look of disdain, “Who do you think you are? You’re just someone’s cast-off old shoe! And you dare to lecture me!”

“You! … Whose child are you? How were you brought up by your family? You have no manners!” Liu Sisi was also furious.

The little chubby boy looked cocky, placing his hands on his waist, “Tsk! My mother doesn’t dare to control me! Let me tell you, she’s the one who said those words. You have the guts, go find her! Let’s see how she deals with you!”

“Good! Very good! Where is your mother?”

I want to see what kind of person could raise such a good-for-nothing bird like you!

“No need for you to find, there! My mother’s coming.” The little chubby boy pointed with his lips.

Liu Sisi turned her head and followed the direction the little chubby boy pointed to. She saw a gigantic, stout woman running towards them. Her enormous body, accompanied by the movement of her two elephant-like legs, inevitably made her gradually approach them like a moving mountain.

The little chubby boy looked triumphant. His mother was a famous tigress around. With her gigantic figure, all she had to do was stand somewhere and others would even dare not speak loudly. Furthermore, she was known for her ability to silence crying children; no one around here wasn’t afraid of her!

The heavy weight came up to them, and her beady-eyed staring at Liu Sisi, then at Di Xuan and Di Ying who Liu Sisi held tight.

At that moment, Di Xuan had already lost his earlier rage. He was so terrified by the woman in front of him that he was trembling, shrunk even more behind Liu Sisi.

And as Little YingEr, she clung even more to Liu Sisi’s clothes—burying her face into them.

A hint of contempt slowly appeared in the woman’s eyes: “Are you the discarded shoe that nobody wants? On a normal day, it would be alright if you stayed low, but today, you’re actually picking on my son! Do you think you can easily mess with Miao Cuihua?”

“Puff!”

Liu Sisi couldn’t hold back a chuckle! Just look at her and her name is Miao Cuihua? Her parents were really… creative.

“Shoes become broken from wear and tear! That’s always better than someone who voluntarily gives herself to others, but nobody dares to take her!”

So, if she doesn’t talk, then Liu Sisi is a fool?

In her previous life as an orphan, she had been ridiculed a lot by others, and had long since gained a cool-headed attitude and a sharp tongue.
