Quick travel: The poor little thing in the period novel strikes back

Chapter 303 The control group of the heroine in the 7s

"Xiao Man, your mother is here to see you, why don't you come out and greet her?"

Shi Yan was still in the backyard thinking about how to solve the problem of vegetables. When she heard a sharp female voice coming from outside the yard, Shi Yan was startled.

Shi Yan brushed the dust off her hands, immediately stood up and walked around the house to the front yard.

Unexpectedly, she was still a step too slow. She saw a somewhat thin figure rushing into the kitchen at an extremely fast speed, followed by a woman's shouting.

"Oh! You're going to ruin such a good thing?"

"Why give so much lard? You young people, without elders to watch over you, just waste it."

Shi Yan followed into the kitchen and saw Shi's mother snatching the half-kneaded dough from Gu Zhen and trying to put it into the basket.

Gu Zhen's expression was quite good. Obviously, facing an elder, who was also a lesbian, he didn't know whether he should take action or not.

After taking a few quick steps, Shi Yan came behind Shi's mother and snatched her basket with a big smile on her face.

"Mom, you came here just to see us!"

"Just come if you want to, why bring anything with you!"

"Mom, you must be tired from walking all the way here. Come with me to the main hall and sit for a while. I'll ask Brother Zhen to make you a bowl of noodles."

Shi Yan dragged Shi's mother, who was reluctant to leave, into the main room. She poured a cup of brown sugar water and handed it to her mother. Only then did she finally hold the enamel cup and sit down quietly.

"You youngsters, you don't know how to be frugal when you have a little money."

"I see you've gained a lot of weight. You must have eaten a lot of good food. I told you that being too fat is not good for fertility. Look, you've been married to the Gu family for more than two years, but there's no sign of pregnancy."

"I heard that you guys went to do business today. If you have this spare money, why don't you give it to me? As an elder, I will help you keep it. If you spend it like this, what will your children have in the future?"

"As for your two younger sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law, it's enough for them to graduate from elementary school. Why are they still going to junior high school? It's a waste of money."

"If you don't use these two good laborers, you are simply making things difficult for food."

The sweet brown sugar water couldn't fill Shi Mu's mouth.

Shi Yan's favor to Shi's mother was just for the sake of face. She knew that Gu's mother came just to ask for money. Even though she treated her warmly, she couldn't even think about getting money.

"Mother, what are you talking about? My mother-in-law's portrait is still hanging here. It was my parents-in-law's last wish that the two little ones go to school. I dare not disobey."

"Also, don't look at me getting fat. That's because Brother Zhen didn't let me work, so I had a lot of free time."

"Brother Zhen has the most ideas. We all listen to him. Besides, mother, look at how big Brother Zhen is. How dare I go against him?"

"I will listen to Brother Zhen and take care of my body so that I can give him a baby. Mom, please don't give me any bad advice. I, a woman, can't take care of my family's affairs."

Shi Yan kept talking nonsense about Gu Zhen in front of Shi's mother.

Just at this moment, Gu Zhen came to the main room with the cooked noodles.

A tall figure stood at the door of the big house, and most of the light was blocked by his figure.

Because they were facing away from the light, Shi Yan and Shi's mother could only see the outline of Gu Zhen's figure.

Shi's mother was originally listening to what her own money-loser said, and she thought that the money-loser was so useless that even her own husband couldn't control him.

But at this moment, when he suddenly saw Gu Zhen's tall figure with the backlight, his first reaction was that he saw a blind bear in the mountains. He was so scared that he even threw the enamel cup in his hand and screamed continuously.

Shi Yan had already noticed that Gu Zhen was coming towards them and was not scared.

At this moment, she was frightened by Shi's mother's violent reaction and stood up and took several steps back to avoid the sugar water being splashed on her.

"Mom, it's me, Gu Zhen. I've cooked the noodles for you. Eat them while they're hot."

When Gu Zhen saw Shi’s mother’s reaction, he felt a little aggrieved and sounded a little depressed when he spoke.

He heard what his wife said, but he would not go and refute her. At least he knew who was the boss in his family.

"Hey, you're so quiet, who are you trying to scare to death?"

Although Shi's mother was harsh in her words, she still happily took the big bowl of noodles.

For a moment, the only sound in the kitchen was the sound of Shi's mother slurping noodles.

Shi Yan and Gu Zhen looked at each other, but did not leave, in case Shi's mother was left unattended and something unexpected happened.

Shi's mother ate the noodles very quickly, as if if she didn't eat quickly, someone would come and snatch their food away.

So Shi Yan and Gu Zhen didn’t have to wait too long. They saw Shi’s mother wipe her mouth with her sleeve and put the bowl of noodles heavily on the table, her face full of satisfaction.

"It's barely edible. You two are such a pain in the ass. You always waste things!"

Although the food was delicious, Shi's mother did not forget the purpose of her visit.

"You guys went to the town to set up a stall today? Isn't that nonsense?"

"Why don't you save that spare money to raise your children in the future? Why are you doing this?"

"Little Gu, there are no elders in the Gu family now. As your mother-in-law, I will take care of it for you. Just hand over the money and I will help you manage it. When you need it, come back and ask me for it."

After saying this, Shi's mother stretched out her hand with her palm facing up, meaning that she wanted Gu Zhen to give her money.

Shi Yan watched from the side without saying anything, wanting to see how Gu Zhen planned to solve the problem this time. After all, she had just said that she had no say in this family.

Gu Zhen stretched out his hand and hit Shi's mother's palm hard without blinking. Shi's mother screamed in pain.

"Mom, I'm a loser. I was so scared when I set up the stall this time that I only earned enough money to buy firewood."

"This little money for firewood must be used to pay for the tuition of the two little ones."

"It's my fault that I can't let Xiaoman live a good life, and I have to let her follow me and risk running to the city."

"But I swore to my parents that I would let the two little ones go to school. I have already let Xiaoman down, but I cannot let my parents in heaven rest in peace."

As Gu Zhen was talking, he actually started to cry. This was something I had never expected.

It doesn't look good when Gu Zhen cries, it doesn't look decent at all.

With tears and snot running down his face, Gu Zhen was about to use his snot-covered hands to pull his mother away.

Shi's mother looked a little disgusted and immediately hid away.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"You're such a big guy, why are you crying like a woman?"

"I told you I'm here to help you manage your money, I didn't ask for your money, why are you crying?"

Shi's mother still didn't want to give up asking the two for money. Seeing that this useless son-in-law was still wiping his tears, her gaze fell on Shi Yan again.

Shi Yan interrupted her mother's intention without waiting for her to speak.

"Mom, I'm sorry. It's all because I'm a useless daughter. I can't let you live a good life."

"But you don't have to worry, mother. You can't rely on me, but don't you have a big son?"
