Chapter 19: Insatiable Greed
Xiao Lei squeezed his eyes shut in fright.
But the hand didn’t fall.
“For these bastards, you’re going against your old mother? Don’t you want to go home?”
Wang Fengxia turned her head, her face full of ferocity, glaring at Su Luoluo.
Zhu Yanhua, hearing the commotion, came out from her mother-in-law’s room. Hearing Wang Fengxia’s words, her face changed, and she looked at Su Luoluo uneasily.
“Oh, then I won’t go back. Are you satisfied now? Can you leave?”
Su Luoluo didn’t care, she shook off Wang Fengxia’s hand and lazily spoke.
Wang Fengxia was too surprised, the anger on her face froze. Usually, when she threatened the little wretch with these words, the little wretch would be terrified and submissive.
The aroma of meat was mouthwatering.
Wang Fengxia quickly recovered her senses and scolded Su Luoluo, “I’ll take these dishes back for Dazhi. You don’t give your nephew good things to eat? He’s always thinking of you at home. Are you worthy of him? You should be generous to your own family, otherwise you’re heartless!”
Dazhi always thinking of her?
Su Luoluo recalled Dazhi ordering Su Zhenhai to beat her to death.
Tsk… he probably meant he’s always thinking about when she’ll finally die.
“And that smoked chicken on the eaves.”
Wang Fengxia continued in a commanding tone.
That smoked chicken was made from a wild rabbit and chicken she caught a few days ago, plus some pork they couldn’t finish. Zhu Yanhua, with her excellent cooking skills, had made the chicken into smoked chicken. It hung from the eaves, golden yellow and very tempting.
Su Luoluo lightly smacked her lips.
This Wang Fengxia…
Has such a big face!
“What you hauled back with the tractor the other day, give it all to me, or I’ll make you look good…”
Wang Fengxia spoke, her hand already reaching for the dishes.
But before her hand touched the dishes, a hand grabbed her wrist and pulled her aside.
“You little wretch, what are you doing?”
Wang Fengxia glared at Su Luoluo, her eyes blazing.
Rolling up her sleeves, she was about to teach this little wretch a lesson.
“We’re family, you can take these dishes if you want.”
Su Luoluo stood in front of Wang Fengxia, a smile playing on her lips.
Niuniu’s little face was full of disappointment, her eyes red, tears about to fall.
Xiao Lei’s teeth itched with hatred, clenching his small fists. He knew this bad woman hadn’t changed at all.
Zhu Yanhua wasn’t surprised by Su Luoluo’s decision. After all, her sister-in-law always cared deeply for her maternal family, willing to give them everything.
“So you still have some sense.”
Wang Fengxia snorted triumphantly and was about to take the dishes.
“Wait.”
Su Luoluo stepped forward again, blocking Wang Fengxia.
Wang Fengxia looked impatient.
“Xiao Lei, pack your clothes, we’re moving.”
Su Luoluo turned to the angry Xiao Lei.
Xiao Lei was stunned, not understanding the bad woman’s words.
But seeing the malicious glint in the bad woman’s eyes, he subconsciously got up from his chair.
“Don’t go.”
Wang Fengxia had a bad feeling and stopped Xiao Lei.
Turning to Su Luoluo fiercely, she said, “You little wretch, what do you mean?”
“Mom, the Su family lives in a red-brick house, while we live in a dilapidated mud-brick house that leaks when it rains. I’m bringing the whole family to live in the Su family’s red-brick house. You shouldn’t have any objections. We’re family. Otherwise, you’re heartless.”
Su Luoluo’s smile grew brighter.
Using Wang Fengxia’s own disgusting words against her.
Xiao Lei looked at Su Luoluo in astonishment.
Zhu Yanhua was full of surprise.
“You little wretch, don’t even think about it! You want to eat my food with your whole family? You’re dreaming!”
Wang Fengxia’s lips trembled with anger.
“Mom, didn’t you say family should be generous? I’m your daughter. How can you watch me suffer outside? There aren’t many of us in the Yang family. Moving into the Su family won’t take up much space.”
Su Luoluo raised her hand, wiping her dry eyes, making them look a little red and pitiful.
“What nonsense are you talking about? A woman follows her husband’s family. How can you run back to your parents’ house? It’s a laughingstock.”
Wang Fengxia was afraid that the poor Yang family would move into her red-brick house, wouldn’t even want the food, and would run away, afraid that the Yang family would cling to them.
Watching Wang Fengxia flee in disgrace, Su Luoluo laughed. “So that’s how it is, trying to fight with me.”
Turning around, she saw everyone looking at her in shock.
“The bad luck has left. Let’s eat, eat, the food’s getting cold.”
Su Luoluo hooked her red lips and pulled out a chair to sit down.
Zhu Yanhua looked at Su Luoluo with complex emotions and returned to her mother-in-law’s room.
“Meat, meat, so fragrant, so fragrant.”
Niuniu shook her little head, raising her big smiling face.
Su Luoluo picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in Niuniu’s bowl.
Niuniu buried her face, “Ah-wu,” taking a big bite of the braised pork, her cheeks bulging. As she chewed, her cheeks puffed up and down like a little squirrel, very cute.
Su Luoluo was charmed by the little girl.
She also gave her a rib.
“Wow…”
“So delicious!”
“So delicious!”
Niuniu ate the fragrant meat, happily shaking her little body, occasionally exclaiming.
Su Luoluo didn’t forget to serve Jingjing.
Jingjing gave Su Luoluo a sweet smile.
The little ones ate until their mouths were full of oil, their faces full of satisfaction.
Su Luoluo ate two whole bowls of rice, showing her satisfaction with the meal.
Niuniu slumped in her chair, her chubby little hands touching her bulging tummy. She seemed curious, lifting her clothes to reveal her white belly, pinching the flesh, grinning, showing her cute little teeth, “My tummy is heavy!”
Su Luoluo quickly pulled down Niuniu’s clothes, meeting Niuniu’s confused big eyes.
“You’re a girl, you can’t show your belly casually.”
Su Luoluo pinched Niuniu’s cheek.
“But, Zhenzhen shows her little butt.”
Niuniu scratched her head with her little paws, her hair messed up, her already insufficient intelligence now even more lacking.
“…” Su Luoluo.
“Zhenzhen isn’t grown up yet, but our Niuniu isn’t a child anymore, she’s a big girl, she should be polite and well-behaved, and she can’t show her tummy.”
Su Luoluo could only coax the little girl.
“Aunties also pull down their clothes to feed the babies.”
Niuniu blinked her big eyes, she still didn’t understand.
“…” Su Luoluo.
Indeed, there were many such behaviors in the countryside. Women would feed their children in a secluded place, pulling down their clothes.
If it was all women and children, they wouldn’t even shy away, directly pulling down their clothes to feed.
“But Niuniu wants to be the best girl, and good girls are different.”
Su Luoluo touched Niuniu’s little head, continuing to coax.
“Me, good.”
Niuniu thought for a while, it seemed to make sense, and without really understanding, she nodded foolishly.
Xiao Lei glanced at the silly Niuniu with disdain.
That night.
Boom——
A loud bang.
The ground shook.
The village chief shouted that the earth was angry, telling people to run to open areas, not to stay at home, lest their houses collapse and bury them.
Her mother-in-law was paralyzed in bed, unable to move. Zhu Yanhua was anxious, trying to carry her mother-in-law out.
“No need to go out and hide, nothing will happen.”
Su Luoluo looked meaningfully at the vast mountains, a gleam in her eyes.
