Rebirth 80: Beautiful Hot Wife in Charge
Chapter 16: Thick Skinned to Succeed
"But I'm still worried about Mom." Xue Xiaotao was really worried.
Xue Xiaozhu didn't mean to ignore it: "Don't worry, we still have to take care of Mom."
"Let's cut the vegetables and cook first. I got a kitchen knife after making such a fuss, so it's not a loss at all."
Seeing her sister's cheerful smile, Xue Xiaotao felt that her sister was very strong.
If it were me, I wouldn't have dared to argue with my family just now.
"Don't I need to return this kitchen knife?" With a kitchen knife, cooking becomes much easier.
Xue Xiaozhu stir-fried some vegetables and steamed some sweet potatoes: "I won't return it. Once it's in my hands, it's mine."
"If they have the guts, just take the kitchen knife back. Sister, put up the table and eat."
"Loach, give me some, I need to give some to others later."
After hearing what her sister said, Xue Xiaotao set up the table and immediately squatted beside the bucket to divide the loaches.
After dividing the food, the two sisters found a place to sit down and ate sweet potatoes and vegetables.
There isn't much oil in the dish, and the sweet potatoes are okay, but not something you can eat every day.
Every time Xue Xiaozhu took a bite of sweet potato, she had to drink a sip of water. She always felt like she couldn't swallow it and was about to choke to death.
As soon as I finished my meal, Xue Lishui came over.
He was shocked when he heard that Xue Xiaozhu had moved a kitchen knife, and hurried over to ask what happened.
"...Are you really okay? Xiaozhu, don't be impulsive." Surgery is not a good idea.
Xue Jianzhi is indeed not a very good person and it is hard to say anything about Xue Lishui.
If he really said that, Xue Jianzhi would take his anger out on his wife again.
"Uncle Lishui, I just want to scare them. How can I really kill them?" Xue Xiaozhu smiled and reassured him.
It is said that the most powerful ones are afraid of death. Xue Xiaozhu spoke so harshly just to scare them.
Xue Lishui felt relieved: "Really."
"Really? I can live a good life, why should I kill people, right?" Xue Xiaozhu nodded seriously.
Looking at the impoverished house, Xue Lishui thought about it and felt that this was not a good idea.
Two girls living in such a shabby house is fine on sunny days, but how can they live there when it rains because it leaks.
"Xiaozhu, are you really planning to stay here and not go back to the old house?" Xue Lishui asked.
Xue Xiaozhu nodded. Given the condition of the old house, it was impossible for her to go back.
"Yes, I'm not going back. I'm staying here. I have hands and feet, and I can support myself."
"Uncle Lishui, don't try to persuade me. I've figured out the good and bad consequences."
Hearing her firm words, Xue Lishui stopped trying to persuade her. It was useless to persuade her.
If the incident hadn't happened to me, who would know how much injustice these two children had suffered at home.
When he was a child, he also suffered from his stepmother. When he told others about it, they couldn't empathize with him.
"I understand. Okay, take a rest tomorrow. I'll ask someone from my family to help you fix the roof."
"At least we have to repair it so we can live in it when it rains, right?" That's all he could do to help.
Every household was not well off and could not afford to give anything extra to the two sisters.
Hearing that he wanted someone to help him fix the roof, Xue Xiaozhu was overjoyed: "Thank you, Uncle Lishui."
After sending the person away, Xue Xiaozhu weighed the loaches he had divided out, which weighed about half a pound.
"Sister, you rest in the house. I'll take the loach to Gu's house. We have to borrow his flashlight for one night!"
Hearing that her sister was going to Gujia Village, Xue Xiaotao in the room responded: "I understand. Come back early."
Xue Xiaotao went out with the bucket and closed the door. She arrived at Gu Chengzhou's house as if she was familiar with the place.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he heard the old lady scolding Gu Chengzhou again.
"Do you have a girl you like? You're not going on a blind date. You're just trying to piss me off to death."
Gu Chengzhou helped the old lady dry the vegetables and retorted, "You are in good health, don't say angry words."
"Oh, just because I'm in good health, you think I won't be angry to death, right, you kid—" The old lady was so angry that she wanted to pull her son's ears, but when she saw Xue Xiaozhu standing outside, she quickly withdrew her hand.
My son is the head of the group, and I can’t let others laugh at him. I have to give him some face.
"Xiaozhu is here, come in and sit inside. Why are you here in such hot sun? Are you thirsty?"
Xue Xiaozhu held back her laughter as she walked into the yard. She had never expected that Gu Chengzhou was actually disliked by his old mother.
But it's true that no matter whether they are gay or lesbian, they will be urged to get married when they reach a certain age.
Gu Chengzhou is very popular in the brigade, and many girls want to marry him.
"Sit under the eaves, it's cooler here." Gu Chengzhou brought her a stool.
When he caught a glimpse of the loaches in the bucket, he guessed that Xue Xiaozhu wanted to give him some loaches.
"It's so cool, Comrade Gu. These are the loaches I dug. Let you try some." Xue Xiaozhu sat down and pointed to the loaches in the bucket.
When the old lady heard that she wanted to give them the loaches in the bucket, she quickly waved her hand and said, "No, you keep them for yourself."
"Aunt, I kept some to give you loaches. I just want to borrow the flashlight again." Xue Xiaozhu smiled brightly.
"If you don't collect loaches, I'll be embarrassed to lend you the flashlight again."
Hearing that she wanted to borrow the flashlight again, Gu Chengzhou guessed that she wanted to go to the fields to catch loaches at night.
"You can use the flashlight if you want. I don't need it right now." Gu Chengzhou had nothing to do in the village.
I bought the flashlight because I was afraid that the old lady would accidentally step on air and fall into the dry toilet when going to the toilet.
Now that he is at home, whenever there is a noise in the old lady's room, Gu Chengzhou will get up and come out to check.
"Really? Then I'll shamelessly use it for another night. Do you want to eat eel?" Xue Xiaozhu thought he was a really nice person.
When the old lady heard the word "eel", she got goose bumps all over her body: "No, no, I'm afraid of eels."
"Don't give these away all the time, kid. Keep them for yourself and nourish your body."
My family conditions are the best in the village, and my son sends money back every month.
Even the old man can smoke a good cigarette from time to time. Everyone in the village envies the couple.
"Let's fry some loaches in the evening to nourish our body." Seeing that the old lady was really resisting, Xue Xiaozhu didn't mention the eel anymore.
She doesn't dislike anything as long as it's not poisonous, but she will feel uneasy when she sees poisonous things.
After delivering the loaches, Xue Xiaozhu prepared to go home. She had to work in the afternoon and take a nap.
Gu Chengzhou walked her out and asked gently, "Are you planning to take the loaches and eels to the city to sell?"
"Yes, I thought there would be people in the city who would like to eat this." Xue Xiaozhu was a little surprised, but he could see it at a glance.
Seeing her kicking the stones at her feet to the sides as she walked, Gu Chengzhou watched for a while and thought she was quite interesting.
"I'm going into the city tomorrow too. Do you want me to give you a ride?" Gu Chengzhou has a bicycle, so it would be faster to get into the city.
If you use your two legs, it will take three hours to get to the county town, and six hours to go back and forth.
Xue Xiaozhu had no intention of avoiding suspicion. When he heard that he could bring people with him, he quickly nodded and asked, "When are you going into the city?"
"If you go to sell eels and loaches, we have to leave at five in the morning." Gu Chengzhou calculated the time.
"Okay, let's meet at the village entrance." Xue Xiaozhu had originally planned to get up at four o'clock.
The two agreed on a meeting time. Xue Xiaozhu waved to Gu Chengzhou and went home with the empty bucket.
