I feel so good after dressing up as a peasant girl

When Bai Jingzhou and his friends heard the neighbors punishing their naughty kids, they would pretend not to hear anything. Life was hard for everyone these days, not just their family, but all the families in the village. No one would share the rare delicacies with other families for no reason.

But as for Bai Jingzhou's grandparents, Ning Cuizhi would always send her husband or children to bring some over whenever there was something delicious at home.

This time was the same. After the dishes were ready, Ning Cuizhi took out two large bowls, filled them with dishes for the two elders, and then put six baked brown sugar cakes in them.

Bai Jingzhou just wanted to go see his grandparents, so when Ning Cuizhi turned her eyes to him and Bai Jingxin and was about to randomly pick one of them to deliver food to the old man and the old lady, Bai Jingzhou immediately took the initiative to step forward.

He said, "Mom, give it to me. I also want to go see my grandparents."

Ning Cuizhi nodded and handed the basket of food to Bai Jingzhou, "Then go quickly and come back soon."

The food was ready, she just had to bake enough pancakes for the whole family, and then they could have dinner.

Her youngest son Bai Jingheng was so greedy that he kept circling around the stove. She was worried that if Bai Jingzhou was away for too long, Bai Jingheng would become like the neighbor's children and cry because of the delicious food.

Bai Jingzhou also saw his younger brother's greedy look. He smiled and took a pair of chopsticks. Under Ning Cuizhi's disapproving look, he picked up two pieces of chicken thighs and stuffed them into his younger brother and sister's mouth to satisfy their cravings.

Ning Cuizhi glared at him, "Just spoil them!"

"I just want to give them a taste." Bai Jingzhou argued, winking at his brother and sister, "You two stay at home, and we'll have dinner after I finish looking after grandma and grandpa."

The two little ones nodded their heads. Woohoo, they like their brother the most, and their brother treats them the best.

Ning Cuizhi was both angry and amused, but she didn't continue to dwell on the matter.

Bai Jingzhou carried a basket and went to Mr. and Mrs. Bai's house with a smile on his face.

The old couple lived not far from their three sons. After walking for about half a cup of tea, Bai Jingzhou was able to see the half-open gate of the old couple's house.

He walked closer and stepped into the yard, "Grandpa, grandma, my mother asked me to bring you two some sugar cakes and vegetables."

His family had dinner early today, and when he came over, Old Mrs. Bai Liu hadn't started cooking yet.

Hearing the noise, the old couple looked out of the window.

"Oh, Jingzhou is home!" Liu slapped her thigh, put on her shoes, and immediately got off the bed to greet her grandson.

Although Mr. Bai moved slowly and looked very reserved, his old face could no longer be controlled and smiled like a chrysanthemum.

He deliberately lagged behind Liu and left the house, but his eyes could not help but look back and forth at Bai Jingzhou. When he found that the child was just a little thinner and darker, the old man secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Bai Jingzhou smiled and handed the basket to Liu, "My family has delicious food today. My mother asked me to bring two bowls as soon as she finished cooking."

Liu couldn't stop smiling. She was old and couldn't eat much, but her children and grandchildren were willing to honor her. How could Liu not be happy?

She first pulled Bai Jingzhou into the inner room of the main house, where she and Old Master Bai lived, and then she lifted the coarse cloth covering the basket, intending to take out the things inside and place them on the kang table.

As a result, the old lady was shocked by the sugar cakes and two large bowls of meat and vegetables. "Hey, why did you bring so many here?"

Bai Jingzhou smiled, "It's rare for my family to make something good, so of course I have to give you two more."

Among the three families, his second uncle's family visited his grandparents the most frequently. His second aunt would send his third cousin or eldest cousin to do work and deliver things to the two elders every day.

Tofu, eggs, river fish, fruits and vegetables, rare grains or meat, and even firewood collected by his third cousin in the mountains and wild vegetables dug by his eldest cousin in the fields.

Although the things are not worth much, this kind of filial piety is the first of its kind in Baijia Village.

Due to her personality, Ning Cuizhi herself cannot be so careful and thoughtful, paying attention to every detail, but she can imitate others.

Liu patted Bai Jingzhou's hand and said, "I'll keep half, and you can take the rest. Your grandfather and I are old, and we can't finish all these good things."

Bai Jingzhou held the old lady's hand with his backhand, preventing her from going to the kitchen to get the bowls and chopsticks, "No, no, my parents will beat me to death. If you and my grandfather are reluctant to finish it in one meal, then you can save half for tomorrow morning."

Anyway, where they live, things won't go bad if you put them in cold water overnight.

Liu was not as strong as him and could only stare at him.

Bai Jingzhou smiled and took some sugar cakes and dishes to the table on the kang. He greeted the old couple and then, without waiting for Liu to say anything, he quickly picked up the basket and slipped away.

Liu was amused and helpless. She glanced at her old man and said, "Why are you so silent? Why don't you say anything to help me?"

Old Master Bai glanced at Bai Jingzhou, who was smiling and waving goodbye to the old couple at the gate, and said, "Do you think Jingzhou is Jingyan? These kids from the third brother's family are all so smart and have their own ideas."

The "Jingyan" the old man mentioned is Bai Jingyan, Bai Jingzhou's eldest cousin from his second uncle's family. The little girl is thirteen years old this year. She has been shy, quiet and filial since she was a child. Liu and her mother always have the final say in front of her.

When mentioning her eldest granddaughter, Liu couldn't help but sigh, "Alas, I don't know what's wrong with that child."

There was no bad habit of favoring boys over girls in their family. She and her second daughter-in-law had always doted on the child, never beating or scolding her. Because she was too well-behaved, they had never even said a harsh word to her, but the child grew up to have a naughty personality.

This kind of personality is not so bad when she is at home. At least her parents and brother will protect her and will not bully her just because she is easy to bully.

But when she gets married and becomes someone else's daughter-in-law, her in-laws will most likely not treat her with as much pity as her own family does just because she is well-behaved, sensible, hardworking and capable.

"Let's slowly look for a kind family that we know well enough for her, one that's close to Baijia Village so we can take care of her at any time." Old Master Bai brought the bowl and chopsticks, motioning for his wife to eat while he spoke.

Liu took her share of the bowl and chopsticks and said, "This is the only way."

After completing the task of delivering the food, Bai Jingzhou ran home like the wind. He didn't know that his grandparents were worried, nor did he know that his aunt was cursing in her kitchen at that moment.

The news that Bai Jingzhou's family cooked meat dishes tonight had already spread throughout the village like wings. Naturally, Uncle Bai's family, who lived not far from Bai Jingzhou's home, also heard the news.

Uncle Bai and his two sons and daughter-in-law did not have any negative thoughts. Uncle Bai was even very happy that Bai Jingzhou finally came home. However, Bai Jingzhou's aunt was almost mad at Bai Jingzhou's family.
