Chen Lishu laughed angrily at her shameless words and stretched out two fingers to compare: "Second sister-in-law, a sparrow has such a big face. Children's urine is not dirty. Why don't you use it to wash your face? Isn't it more economical?
water."
"you!"
Liu Yuemin choked for a moment, remembering the purpose of coming here, squeezing her neck and said: "Now we are not talking about the quilt. How did you say that you, an aunt, instigated my son? You also said that I hid food with his father. Where are you?
Can you only see something to eat? This is good, the child is crying like this, please pay for it."
When the two children heard her words, they sobbed twice and looked at Chen Lishu eagerly.
Chen Lishu looked at her and sneered: "Second sister-in-law, why are you letting your child sleep in my house when there is no food hidden in the house?"
"Isn't that because I don't have room in my house? I'm prone to getting hot now that I'm pregnant. It just so happens that you and the third child are not here. Why don't you just pee on your quilt with a tattered quilt?
Talking nonsense in front of a child?"
"What's the fuss about?"
Li Xiulan and Zhang Qin heard the noise outside and quickly put down their hands. When they saw Liu Yuemin blocking Chen Lishu's door, they knew that she must be causing trouble again. Li Xiulan's face darkened and she said: "Why don't you stop at my second son's house all day long?
At that time, how long ago did Lishu come back? What kind of trouble are you going to make?"
"Mom, they are all the same daughters-in-law. Why didn't you ask me clearly before you said I was causing trouble? Why didn't you ask what Chen did?"
Liu Yuemin pointed at Chen Lishu and told her everything about what had just happened: "Mom, sister-in-law, please tell me whether there is such a big person like her who instigates a child who cries and howls to ask me for food."
Hearing her words, Li Xiulan's eyes fell on the quilt cover that had just been removed from the kang and had not been washed, and her face suddenly became a little ugly: "Second daughter-in-law, why do you have the nerve to complain? Didn't I tell you all this?
Make a mattress for the child to sleep in the third house, and don’t let someone else’s kang be peed on, you say so!”
"Mom, there are not many mattresses at home. The one in my room is dirtier than this one. We both still use it, but she is being pretentious."
Li Xiulan was so angry at her that she didn't know what to say: "You're such a coward!"
"Second sister-in-law, it has nothing to do with me whether your house is dirty or not, and I don't care, but what is dirty now is my quilt. I don't blame the children for being ignorant, but you, a mother, can't just let it go."
Chen Lishu originally thought that it would be better to take care of herself than to do more, but now seeing her attitude, people just can't get used to it.
"I tell you clearly today that you must wash this quilt for me."
Liu Yuemin was not afraid of her threats: "Don't scare me with your words. What will happen to you if I don't wash you today?"
Chen Lishu nodded, said no more, and walked straight to the kitchen.
Liu Yuemin's heart skipped a beat when she saw her actions, and she quickly chased after her. When she saw Chen Lishu going to fetch water from the water tank, her heart suddenly jumped: "Third brother and sister, what are you going to do?"
Chen Lishu smiled: "Second sister-in-law, didn't you say that the quilt in your room is dirtier than that in mine? I just happened to wash it for you."
Liu Yuemin looked at how she was trying to wash herself. She was clearly trying to flood her room.
Only then did she remember that Chen Lishu was not Zhang Qin or Zhang Xiaoju. She would dare to do anything.
Seeing that the person was already walking out with the basin, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and quickly stepped forward to stop the person: "It's just a rag, why don't I wash it for you another day?"
Chen Lishu stopped and said, "Go and wash it for me today."
Liu Yuemin originally thought that if Chen Lishu couldn't wait for two days, she would definitely wash it herself. When Chen Lishu asked her to wash it now, she felt unwilling to do so.
Chen Lishu didn't talk nonsense to her, held the water basin and walked out with her legs up.
Liu Yuemin was angry and anxious, and said angrily to her back: "Can we just take a shower now?!"
…
In the evening, Gu Shoufu and his son, who were helping others build a house, came back. Just as the noodles rolled out by Li Xiulan were coming out of the pot, the family finished washing and sat at the table to have dinner.
Liu Yuemin kept getting angry because Chen Lishu forced her to wash the quilt, but everyone was eating separately and no one paid attention at all.
"Third sister-in-law, how is the clothes issue going?" Gu Xingye raised his head and asked.
Chen Lishu smiled: "Basically the solution is almost there."
"It just so happens that the old Liu family's house has been built. Tomorrow I want to go to town with you, Third Sister-in-law. I also want to go to the train station to sell soda and some snacks."
Zhang Xiaoju works at a supply and marketing cooperative, and there are supplies of snacks and the like. It's a busy time for farming, and besides, the baby will be born in less than two months, so he needs to make some money as soon as possible.
Gu Shoufu nodded: "After all, it was sold last year, so there should be no problem if you pay more attention."
Liu Yuemin heard Gu Xingye's words and hurriedly touched Gu Xingmin with her elbow and whispered: "The child's father, the family is not busy anyway, why don't you come with him?"
The family is not short of money, so Gu Xingmin doesn't want to go. Besides, there is finally a break in farming, so he still wants to play tricks with others.
"It's such a hot day, and you can't earn even 80 cents for a trip."
Last year, he started working on it together. It took a lot of effort to earn one yuan from a box of soda, and they had to split it between the two of them.
"Fourth, I'll go with you tomorrow." Gu Xingguo said.
After dinner, Chen Lishu went back to her parents' house. The family was very happy to see her coming. She chatted with Chen Mandun and a few children at home for a while. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, she got up to leave.
"This year we planted a few melon vines in our private plot, and there happened to be two. I asked your dad to pick them for you to take back and try."
"Yes, just wait a moment and I'll pick it up right now." Chen Mandun said as he stood up and walked out.
When Chen Lishu saw this, she quickly stopped the person: "Dad, please stop picking it. Leave it to you, my mother, and a few younger sisters to eat."
"Sister, you eat first. I count it every day. There are five melons on it. Soon we will be able to eat it too." Chen Lijuan raised her head and said.
Chen Lishu smiled and joked: "Sixth sister is so awesome that she can even count?"
When Chen Lijuan heard her words, she straightened her chest and said, "Third sister taught me how to count to a hundred."
Soon Chen Mandun brought back two cantaloupes, but Chen Lishu couldn't refuse and had to take them home.
The next day, Chen Lishu, Gu Xingguo and Gu Xingye went to town together.
Liu Xiaoting just came out of the supply and marketing cooperative and saw Chen Lishu's figure. Thinking of the clerk's words just now, her face darkened and she immediately walked a few steps over.
"Chen Lishu!"
Chen Lishu turned her head when she heard the voice, and stopped when she saw it was Liu Xiaoting.
Just as Liu Xiaoting was about to speak, her eyes fell on Gu Xingye next to her, and she looked startled.
After not seeing each other for two years, Gu Xingye's whole person has changed quite a lot. His youthfulness has faded away, and he has become somewhat restrained and mature, attracting the attention of others more than before.
Liu Xiaoting's heart still beat twice uncontrollably.
But then she thought of what her two sisters-in-law had said to humiliate her, and a look of cruelty flashed across Liu Xiaoting's eyes.
