"Dad, didn't the Gu family also give me fifty yuan? Such a small amount of food will definitely not be enough for the family with so many mouths. Give me the money and I will go to the town to get some food."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Chen Manyun's eyes visibly dodge.
"How many pairs of eyes are watching you when you go to town to get something to eat? Do you want to be caught and blackmailed?"
Chen Lishu knew that he had been bitten by a snake once and was afraid of ropes for ten years. She could only explain patiently: "The situation at home is like this. If we don't find a way, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive for years. Who will pay attention to me, a girl, when I go out to film, besides, now it's...
It’s snowing so heavily that everyone is staying at home, so there’s no time to worry about who goes out. As long as I’m careful, I won’t be discovered.”
"The child's father, I think what Lishu said makes sense. It's okay for adults. There are still a few small mouths waiting for me. Besides, I can't ignore this thing in my belly."
She gave birth to six girls in a row, hoping that the one in her belly would be a boy.
The Chen family really followed the old saying, the poorer they are, the poorer they will be, and the poorer they are, the poorer they will be.
Chen Mandun looked at his mother's eager eyes and hesitated for a long time: "I gave the money to my mother."
"What?" This time Chen Lishu didn't need to speak. Wu Chunmei immediately raised her eyebrows and raised her voice: "That's fifty yuan, and you gave it to her?"
Chen Mandun winced and looked away: "Our family's filial piety food has been delayed for a while, and the Chinese New Year is about to come. As a son, I have to be thoughtful..."
Seeing that his always good-tempered daughter-in-law had anger on her face, Chen Mandun immediately stopped talking and lowered his head calmly.
"That's Lishu's gift money. The whole family is counting on this money. You want to force us mothers to death!" Wu Chunmei burst into tears as she spoke.
"mother!"
When the sisters of the Chen family saw her holding her belly with a look of pain on her face, they immediately rushed forward. Chen Mandun also panicked at this moment and stepped forward to hug her onto the kang.
Wu Chunmei was so excited that her amniotic fluid broke and she had to give birth early.
Chen Lishu didn't care about anything else and ran next door to ask the Wang family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to help deliver the baby.
After struggling all night, Wu Chunmei finally gave birth to a girl as thin as a kitten. When the old lady of the Chen family heard that she was a loser, she didn't even come over to take a look.
Chen Lishu looked at Wu Chunmei who was just holding her child and crying, and Chen Mantun who was sighing beside her. She went out to boil some hot water and put it in the only enamel jar with peeling paint in the house. There was no brown sugar, so she had to sprinkle some wolfberry and bring it to the edge of the kang.
"Mom, you are in confinement and crying too much is not good for your health. Besides, my little sister also needs to breastfeed. I made some wolfberry water for you. You can drink it while it's hot."
After speaking, he pursed his lips, turned around, grabbed the hat and scarf by the kang, lifted his legs and walked outside.
"Sister, what are you going to do?" Second sister Chen Liyuan ran over and asked in a low voice. Her father gave all the money to her, and she was afraid that her eldest sister would not be able to think about it if she got angry.
"I'm going out for a while and will be back soon. Take care of mom and little sister." Chen Lishu saw her worry, patted her shoulder, put on her hat, wrapped her scarf and walked out of the room.
The snow outside had stopped unknowingly, but the wind was still strong, and it hurt like a knife on the face. The snow was so thick that everywhere was covered in white. Chen Lishu looked in the right direction and walked straight ahead.
passed.
"Lishu is here. I heard that your mother has given you another sister. I have been busy and haven't had time to go over and take a look."
Although Zhang Chunhua, Chen Mancang's daughter-in-law, was smiling, there was a hint of schadenfreude in her tone.
Chen Lishu twitched the corner of her mouth.
Everyone was in Maodong, so there was nothing to do. But they didn’t expose Zhang Chunhua, and just asked: “Auntie, is my grandma at home?”
"It's in the back room, please go over there." Zhang Chunhua said and pointed towards the room.
"What do you want from me? If you have anything to do, just say it here. Your mother just gave birth to a loser again. Don't go to my house. I think it's unlucky!"
Mrs. Chen came out of the back room on her little feet, looking over her half-drooped eyelids with disgust, and even took a sip on the ground.
Chen Lishu didn't want to go in at all, so she stood at the door and said straight to the point: "My dad said he gave you my fifty yuan gift money, and I want to get the money back."
When she heard that this girl was here to ask for money, Mrs. Chen immediately said with a slumped face longer than a donkey: "That was given to me by your father as a filial piety. You loser still wants money, so get out of here."
!”
"You are a loser, you are a loser. Who are you?" Chen Lishu's cold eyes were directed towards her. Old Mrs. Chen seemed to have been stung. She immediately jumped to her feet, pointed at her and cursed: "You are a shameless loser, that's what you are."
Are you talking to your grandma? Boss, my wife, kick her out right away."
Chen Lishu raised the corner of her lips and sneered: "Give me the money and I will leave immediately. I won't wait for a moment longer. If you don't give it..."
"What can I do if I don't give it to you? You little brat, if you talk to me like this, believe it or not, I will go to the commune and sue you."
Chen Lishu smiled. Her pretty face was like a delicate blooming flower: "When will you go, I'll accompany you? It just so happens that we can't open the pot at home, so maybe I can still have a full meal in the study class. Anyway, I've already returned to my mother.
Liyuan and the others have agreed that if I can't go back, they will move here together to keep you company and have a lively New Year."
When Zhang Chunhua heard that this was an attempt to blackmail someone, his hand that was about to push him immediately changed its direction and patted Chen Lishu's back gently, and said with a sneer: "You kid, how can you come back after we are separated?"
"
Chen Lishu glanced sideways at her and said with a hint of a smile: "Auntie, that's not right. There are many kinds of filial piety. There are those who give money and food like my father, and there are also those who take pleasure in others like my aunt and uncle. Our granddaughters don't have any other abilities.
, move here and live together, and make sure the milk is taken care of comfortably."
Zhang Chunhua's mouth stiffened and he could no longer smile.
"You are going to piss me off to death." When Mrs. Chen saw that her granddaughter had changed her past behavior and insisted on spending time with her, she immediately beat her chest and started to cry, make trouble, and hang herself.
"My dad isn't here, and there's no one else here. Please save your energy. I'm going to put my words aside today. If you don't give me fifty yuan, I won't go out here."
As she spoke, Chen Lishu found a long bench and sat down upright: "If you want to live and die, then leave the front leg and I won't take the fifty yuan back. I will treat you as a filial piety."
Chen Lishu's pretty face was stained with frost. Her dark eyes looked at Old Mrs. Chen with an unprecedented seriousness in her eyes.
The meaning is obvious, unless you die, you must spit out the fifty yuan.
"I don't want to live anymore. I'll fight with you, a little whore." Mrs. Chen said, bending down and bumping into Chen Lishu.
