Rebirth 80: Beautiful Hot Wife in Charge

After leaving the house, Xue Jiumei shouted to the two people in the house: "Okay, you are awesome. Don't eat lunch at noon. Stay hungry."

Xue Xiaozhu didn't care about her words at all, as she was not without hands or feet.

She cooks all the meals for the whole family and knows exactly where to put the vegetables and rice.

"Xiaozhu, what should we do? Your grandma is really angry." Looking at her daughter's pale face, Luo Xiufen didn't dare to say a harsh word, but just sighed anxiously.

"I wanted to bring something to thank that kid from Chengzhou. If it weren't for him, you would have died in the river today."

When Xue Xiaozhu heard Luo Xiufen mention the name Gu Chengzhou, he only vaguely remembered this man's strong waist and abdomen, and hard thighs.

It was fate that Gu Chengzhou saved Xue Xiaozhu as soon as he returned from the army.

Seeing her worried look, Xue Xiaozhu propped up the broken corner of the table and tried to soothe her emotions: "Don't be afraid, she's angry, we just need to take care of ourselves. As for thanking you, I'll go with you when I feel better."

Having said that, Luo Xiufen looked at her daughter's condition and thought, how could she not eat lunch? Her daughter's body was so weak.

It was all her fault as a useless mother that her daughter suffered so much injustice.

"My daughters, it's all my fault. I failed to protect you." Luo Xiufen lowered her head and burst into tears. Every time her two daughters were bullied, she felt particularly guilty.

Why am I so weak that I don’t even dare to seek justice for my daughter?

Xue Xiaozhu saw that her eyelids were swollen from crying and sighed. This matter cannot be blamed entirely on Luo Xiufen. She was PUA-ed by the old lady since she got married.

In addition, Luo Xiufen gave birth to two daughters in a row, so she was already the lowest-ranking person in the old lady's family. She would be scolded by the old lady if she ate an extra grain of rice.

"Okay, stop crying. I'm an adult now and I can protect myself."

Seeing that she couldn't stop crying, Xue Xiaozhu quickly found something for her to do to divert her attention.

"Mom, I'm hungry and my head is dizzy."

This is not a sequelae of drowning, but he is really hungry. Xue Xiaozhu's stomach is growling.

She only drank a bowl of porridge in the morning that was so thin that it could be used as a mirror. After finishing her work in the fields, she had to go cut grass for the pigs. There was still clothes for the whole family waiting for her to wash in the yard.

Xue Xiaozhu feels that he is also a hardworking ox.

In the corner of the yard, Second Aunt Liu Meifang saw her mother-in-law coming out and hurried over.

"Mom, why are you so angry?" When she was outside, she heard a loud noise in the house. Liu Meifang thought that the old lady was serious and beat Xue Xiaozhu and her daughter.

It looked like the old lady didn't get anything out of it and she even made herself angry.

Xue Jiumei rubbed her chest vigorously and spat, "Shameless little bitch, I said a few words to her, and she even confronted me."

"Mom, have you told Xiaozhu about the blind date?" Liu Meifang was a little anxious. This was the key point. She didn't care whether her mother-in-law was upset or not.

The people who are going on blind dates are very anxious and say they want to decide on the deal right after just one look.

Hearing what the second son's wife said, Xue Jiumei glanced at her and said, "Why tell her this? I'm the boss of this family. Just bring the person you're dating here."

"As long as I think it's okay, she has to marry me. If she dares not to, I'll break her legs."

With the old lady's words, Liu Meifang felt relieved. Her sister-in-law and her family would not dare to resist the old lady. They were just a bunch of softies who could be bullied by anyone.

"Okay, I'll bring the person over this afternoon. That family said they want to get married this month." Seeing the old lady's face change, Liu Meifang quickly stretched out three fingers.

"That family said they were willing to give a betrothal gift of 300 yuan, and they added 50 yuan!"

Three hundred yuan for a betrothal gift is a sum that a rural family would need to save for several years.

Even if someone has a job in the city, they only earn about 30 yuan a month. This is a huge expense to get married.

"Three hundred yuan." Xue Jiumei's breathing became rapid, her eyes full of excitement.

"Okay, as long as the money is in place, we can do it within ten days, not to mention a month."

Liu Meifang responded with a smile. The reason she was so active in promoting this matter was, of course, because her son, who was a temporary worker in the city, had a girlfriend, and this girlfriend was also a city dweller.

The girl from the city said that the betrothal gift would be two hundred yuan, and she would also need to prepare four major items.

"Okay, I'll go tell that family." Liu Meifang went out with a smile on her face.

When Xue Jiumei thought of the three hundred yuan, her anger gradually subsided. Why should she be angry with a money-losing girl who was about to get married? She wouldn't be able to stay at home for long anyway.

After spitting at the house, Xue Jiumei picked up her hoe and went to the field.

After staying in the room for a while, Xue Xiaozhu felt her stomach cramping again. She picked up the enamel pot on the wooden table, drank a mouthful of cold water, and after dry heaving, her face turned even paler.

I was so hungry, so hungry that I felt like my brain was not working. Xue Xiaozhu leaned against the wall and went to the kitchen, where he saw Luo Xiufen staring at the stove with worry.

All the food in the house was locked in the house by the old lady. The amount of rice eaten every day was limited. If there was too much, it meant someone was stealing it.

"Xiaozhu, Mom can't find anything to eat." Luo Xiufen felt so useless.

Seeing that she was about to cry again, Xue Xiaozhu felt a headache: "Mom, please move aside. There is food in the cupboard. I just picked up two eggs this morning, and grandma hasn't let go yet."

Luo Xiufen didn't dare to cook eggs because they were food only for men. If they ate them, they would be scolded at best and beaten at worst.

"Xiaozhu, you can't eat eggs. We can't eat them."

"If your grandma knew we took the eggs—" Luo Xiufen shuddered.

Seeing her shoulders hunched in fear, Xue Xiaozhu pulled her aside, picked up the kitchen knife hanging on the wall, opened the cupboard key, and took out two eggs.

"Why not eat? Aren't we contributing to the family? We handle the housework and farm work together. Don't be afraid, Mom. I will protect you."

"Grandma is always bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. She wanted to hit me just now, but after what I said, she gave in. Mom, our family is too honest, that's why we get bullied like this."

In this family, being honest is the original sin. The whole family treats them as servants. However, honest people can also go crazy, and even rabbits will bite when they are angry.

Seeing that her daughter insisted on eating two eggs, Luo Xiufen thought that her daughter needed to be nourished, so she gritted her teeth, took the two eggs, and stuffed a handful of straw into the stove.

She has to let her daughter eat something good. If her mother-in-law investigates, she will take the responsibility.

The tender and smooth egg custard was steamed quickly. Xue Xiaozhu started to swallow her saliva when she smelled it. If it were in the past, she would just take a look at it at most and would not be as greedy as she is now.

Her stomach was so empty that she either drank porridge or ate vegetables. She hadn't eaten meat for half a year, and her stomach felt empty as if a big hole had been drilled in it.

"Xiaozhu, eat!" Seeing her daughter swallowing her saliva again, Luo Xiufen felt a lump in her throat.

Xue Xiaozhu took the egg custard, divided it into three parts, and dripped sesame oil on it: "Mom, you eat this one, don't refuse. If you don't eat it, I won't eat it either."

Luo Xiufen asked her daughter to eat it, but when the egg custard was brought to her mouth, she opened her mouth involuntarily, and the egg custard slipped down her stomach as soon as it entered her mouth.
