“You’re just counting on him to protect you! It would be best if he could protect you for a lifetime.”
Zhao’s face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot, thinking of how hard she had worked for so many years, but now everything had come to this. She couldn’t help but get angry: “I’m afraid that in the future, you’ll also follow the path I took, or even worse! My situation today is a reflection of your future!”
Liu Sisi pressed her lips lightly and bowed slowly, hiding the sneer in her eyes: “Thank you for the reminder, mother-in-law. Sisi…”
“Mom! What nonsense are you talking about here? If you think the food in Ye Lei’s home is not good, you can leave!”
Di Yelei, who was originally busy, saw that the situation was wrong, quickly stepped over in two strides, guarded Liu Sisi at her side, and protected her firmly under his wings!
“I, Di Yelei, brought my daughter-in-law here to pamper her, not to let her be mistreated! Besides, Sisi is pregnant now. The doctor told her to rest in bed, but she came out here to greet you, considering that you are her mother-in-law. Not only do you not sympathize with her, but you also blame her like this! Is this how a mother-in-law should be?”
“Good! Fine… Di Yelei, how dare you talk to me like that? You…”
Zhao was so angry her chest heaved, as if the anger would rise and fall: “I raised you from the time you were a baby… ”
“Allow me to remind you, mother, that when you got married, Ye Lei was already past the age of needing diapers!”
The sneer at the corner of Di Yelei’s mouth attracted attention: “Since you came here, mother, I, Di Yelei, have been living in the firewood room, eating leftover food, carrying water and cooking since I was five years old, and hunting in the mountains since I was seven. Many times I escaped from the mouth of wild animals and all of this is thanks to your great upbringing as a mother!”
Zhao could hardly stand, infuriated: “You… you… who do you think you are? If you don’t work, are you some young master of a wealthy family? I’ll tell you…”
Just as Zhao was about to curse, Elderly Mr. Di somehow appeared, yelling.
“Enough! Both of you… shut up! Third Child, help… Sisi lie down and rest!”
Elderly Mr. Di’s appearance immediately calmed the situation.
“Alright, father.”
Di Yelei took his father’s advice, glanced at Zhao, and then helped Liu Sisi into the room.
Zhao’s rage deflated, watching Elderly Mr. Di she couldn’t help but call out softly, “Old man…”
Elderly Mr. Di turned his head away, ignoring Zhao, leaving Ms. Wang at a loss, stretching her neck to peek into the kitchen through the raised curtain but could not see what was going on inside.
“Zhao, if you… don’t want to come here, you can just… get out! Get out of here!”
Elderly Mr. Di spoke while waving his crutch in front of Zhao’s feet, causing Ms. Wang to scream and hurriedly let go of Zhao, retreating two steps.
Zhao almost fell, but she moved quickly and was able to regain her balance after retreating two steps.
Elderly Mr. Di gave her a cold glance and sighed deeply: “Zhao! When you’re underground in the future, how will you face your cousin?”
Zhao’s face changed dramatically!
Elderly Mr. Di did not wait for Zhao’s reply, and turned to enter the kitchen.
“Old man!…”
Zhao hurriedly took two steps forward, trying to hold him back. But in reply, Elderly Mr. Di tossed the curtain behind him and went into the room without looking back.
Zhao stood where she was, stunned for a long time.
Ms. Wang, who was next to her, had been eyeing Di family’s kitchen already, as she hadn’t been able to eat anything good from Di’s home in months. How could she let go of such a good opportunity?
She dashed from behind Zhao and directly slipped into the kitchen.
Zhao struggled in place for a long time before finally mustering up the courage to enter the kitchen with a thick skin.
In the kitchen, Liu Sisi leaned at the head of the bed, slightly squinting her eyes to rest.
Di Yelei sat not far from the grass curtain, chatting with Zhang Peng beside him, his expression calmly observing everything around him.
The fastest one had to be Ms. Wang, who by now had also become skillful, pretending to be innocent while chatting with others as her fingers secretly stretched towards the chunk of meat being stewed in the pot.
“Hey! What are you doing? Is your hand dirty or not? You actually used your hand to grab meat to eat directly?”
Liu Zhi’er couldn’t stand Ms. Wang’s actions and shouted angrily.
Ms. Wang was startled, her fingers involuntarily loosening, and the piece of meat in her hand immediately fell back into the thick soup.
“Ah! You scared me to death. Don’t you make any noise when you walk?”
Ms. Wang patted her chest, the hand that had just grabbed the meat leaving several oily fingerprints on her clothes.
Liu Zhi’er’s eyebrows were all knitted together!
She couldn’t help but get angry!
“I’m asking if you’re dirty or not? You didn’t even wash your hands before grabbing meat, and after grabbing it, you didn’t take it away but threw it back into the soup pot. What if everyone ate like you, what wouldn’t they eat then!”
Liu Zhi’er angrily picked up a bowl, scooping out the piece of meat that had just been touched by Ms. Wang along with the surrounding thick soup, and heavily placed it into the large bowl nearby.
“I, I’m just…just taste-testing to see if it’s cooked, do you really need to make a fuss about it?”
Ms. Wang shrank back a little.
The commotion over here immediately attracted Di Yelei from the other side. He stood up and asked in a deep voice, “What’s going on? What happened?”
“No…nothing, hehe, really nothing!”
Ms. Wang was afraid of Di Yelei; she still remembered the way he had scolded Ms. Zhao before.
Liu Zhi’er beside her wasn’t going to let it go. Her voice wasn’t good and she couldn’t speak loudly, but she still tried to say, “It’s her, she actually grabbed meat from the meat soup with her hand. What’s more, she threw the meat back into the soup pot.”
“No! Nothing like that happened! I didn’t even get a chance to eat it. I just wanted to pick up a piece when she caught me! I…”
Ms. Wang waved her hand like she was using a rattle drum.
“Alright, Second Sister, please scoop out everything around where she touched, and give it to Ah-Huang to eat.”
Di Yelei interrupted Ms. Wang’s words.
“But it’s such a pity to give it to a dog, why not just give it to me? I’m hungry right now, hehehe…”
Ms. Wang said with a bashful face.
Liu Sisi propped herself up from the bedside and called softly, “Second Sister, since Second Sister-in-law wants to eat it, just let her eat it.”
Liu Zhi’er’s mouth twitched, deliberately mocking Ms. Wang, “Didn’t you say this meat was going to feed Ah-Huang? Now you…you have to compete with Ah-Huang for food? Really…” While talking, she handed the bowl to Ms. Wang as she had said.
Ms. Wang had no shame at all, hastily taking the bowl and grabbing a piece of meat. She didn’t even care about the heat and sent it straight into her mouth.
“Um! This meat is really fragrant…so delicious…”
Liu Sisi looked at Ms. Wang’s wolf-like eating appearance, feeling her stomach churning, and quickly retreated to the head of the bed, out of sight, out of mind.
