In the book, I was fed by my sister

Chapter 138: No One's Joy

After everyone walked out of Song Ran's house happily, they began to run around the village to tell the good news.

Especially those families who have sent their daughters to school, they are now extremely grateful that they made such a wise decision!

Li Qianhua was delighted and walked home briskly.

As soon as she entered the house, she saw the cooled rice soup on the stove. She picked up the bowl and gulped down two large bowls.

This feeling of satisfaction and joy spread in her heart, making her feel extremely happy.

However, there was no one at home, and she had no one to confide her inner joy to, so she hummed a tune by herself while preparing dinner.

Father-in-law Fu Conghai and his companions returned from working in the fields. From a distance, they saw smoke rising from the roof of their own house.

Ge Ruiyun muttered in a low voice: "I was worried that she would no longer be willing to do housework after she became arrogant! Fortunately, she is still honest, otherwise I would have to give her a good beating."

Li Qianhua heard a noise coming from the yard and came out to see what was happening. She immediately smiled and said, "Mom and Dad, my meal will be ready soon. I even specially cut a large piece of bacon for today!"

Hearing this, Ge Ruiyun frowned immediately: "Oh my, my dear son is not at home today, why are you cutting meat! Isn't this a waste?"

Li Qianhua was startled by her mother-in-law's sudden scolding and felt a little confused.

Since her husband Fu Wudang was appointed as the manager of the grain store, the family had a great celebration.

She had wanted to take this opportunity to cook something delicious to add some joy to everyone, so she explained in a low voice: "I just think this is a festive occasion, and I want everyone to taste some meat..."

Ge Ruiyun glared at her fiercely, then walked straight into the kitchen. He took the cooked bacon out of the pot and said, "Fortunately, it's a cool day." Then he put the bacon in the cupboard.

Li Qianhua lowered her head and clenched her fists tightly.

"Grandma, I want to eat meat!" The two grandsons pestered Ge Ruiyun.

Ge Ruiyun smiled and said, "Little greedy cat." After hesitating for a while, he took out the bacon that had been put in the cupboard.

Li Qianhua did not enjoy the meal. She found it difficult to swallow the two pieces of meat she was given.

"I'm going to take Xinyue and Haizhu to the city."

Xinyue, the eldest daughter, is six years old. She is smart, sensible and considerate, and can even help out in the fields. Although Haizhu is only four years old, she is also an obedient baby.

Compared to the two naughty sons, these two daughters are much easier to take care of!

However, Li Qianhua knew very well that if she took both daughters away, especially the older Xinyue, the two boys left behind would definitely cause Ge Ruiyun a headache.

So when Ge Ruiyun heard Li Qianhua's decision, she immediately retorted anxiously: "How can this be possible? Didn't we agree before that we would only take care of the two little ones?"

"I talked to the boss today, but she disagreed! She said that her place is a business, how can she let someone look after the child. Our Xiao'er has a temper, he can't sit still and can't be controlled. If he bumps into those buyers in the store, mother, you definitely don't want our family to lose this job of twelve taels of silver a year because of this."

She felt that she was not capable of taking care of two children, so she mentioned this to Su Xiaoxiao today. However, she did not expect that Su Xiaoxiao would immediately reject her as soon as she heard it.

At this time, Fu Conghai said, "The boss has her reasons for making such an arrangement. Qianhua, just focus on your own affairs. Let your mother-in-law take care of Yuncai and Xiaoer."

When Su Xiaoxiao met Li Qianhua for the first time, she asked how many days a month her shop needed to be watched, how big the bed was, and whether she could live with her children.

At that time, Su Xiaoxiao's store did have accommodation arranged for the employees. When Li Qianhua asked her this, she did not think much about it. She thought that Li Qianhua felt that it was too troublesome to run back and forth every day, so she told the other party that there was accommodation in the store.

However, when she went to the store today and Li Qianhua mentioned the matter again, she realized that something was wrong.

After further questioning, Su Xiaoxiao was surprised to find that, wow! When his wife went to work, he had to leave the burden to her.

She came here, without a lawsuit to fight, and felt uncomfortable. Su Xiaoxiao suddenly became excited by the oppression happening before her eyes.

She inquired about Li Qianhua's family situation in detail and learned that since Li Qianhua married into this family, she had been increasingly oppressed. Li Qianhua was originally a mild-mannered person, but later on, even her children began to look down on this "incompetent" mother.

She was able to keenly detect the grievance and resentment contained in Li Qianhua's words.

However, due to the lack of sufficient support from her mother's family, Li Qianhua was like a rootless duckweed, helpless and homeless.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't expect to preach some great principles and enlighten anyone, she just wanted to influence people silently.

So, she immediately frowned and said that she was only willing to look after well-behaved children. Moreover, if the children disrupted the business of the store because of their mischief, she would not hesitate to drive them away.

Faced with this request, Li Qianhua agreed on the spot and said that she would discuss it with her parents-in-law after returning home.

For those who have been oppressed for a long time, they will change their minds only once another powerful force intervenes.

In the current situation, Su Xiaoxiao has become a symbol of future life security for her parents-in-law and husband. This power has now surpassed the power oppression within the small family and has a stronger influence.

Fu Conghai continued to ask: "Oh, by the way, have you ever asked how many times you can come back every month?" He thought to himself, it would be great if the treatment was the same as his son Fu Wu.

After all, Fu Wu can go home five nights a month and have two days of vacation, so it would be nice if his daughter-in-law could do the same.

Originally, Li Qianhua also thought that she would be like Fu Wu, but today she learned that there was someone guarding the shop, and the situation seemed different.

Li Qianhua hesitated for a moment and replied, "Same as Ah Wu. Come back five nights a month and have two days off."

This was her first time telling a lie, so she was inevitably a little nervous. However, no one present pursued the issue further.

Fu Conghai nodded and agreed: "Okay, then take the children to take a bath quickly so that they can look more energetic in front of the boss."
