Three Women in the Cage

After an unknown amount of time, there was finally an urgent knock on the door, "Knock knock knock", accompanied by Yang Yu's puzzled voice, "Third sister? Open the door! Why are you closing the door? Open the door quickly..."

When Xinxin heard her mother's voice, she quickly wiped the tears from her face, stood up excitedly and happily, quickly pulled the bolt, and opened the door from the inside!

Looking at Yang Yu coming in, Xinxin said to her with grievance, "Mom, two stinky pigs ran out of the pigpen. I was afraid they would run away, so I locked them up inside..."

Yang Yu looked at the mess in the room, then at Xinxin, who had clearly been crying, and her heart ached. But she was exhausted and hungry, and thinking about the smashed pigpen made her anxious again. Without a moment to comfort Xinxin, she cursed the two pigs, "You two beasts, what are you doing out here? You broke the fence! Where are you going to sleep? You're such bastards..."

Yang Yuxin tried to comfort Xinxin, but the words that came out of her mouth turned into blame. "Why did you just watch them smash the gate? Couldn't you just throw them some food? They must be starving, that's why they're going crazy! You see how hard I'm working out there, can't you save me a little trouble? My eldest sister was at home before, and although she was clumsy, she didn't cause any trouble like this! How come they've only been out for a day and you've messed up like this?"

Yang Yu was working in the fields, forgetting the time and the lack of help at home! That's why she came home so late. Usually, Huanhuan takes care of everything at home! She forgot that they went to her third brother's place, but she didn't know that Xinxin couldn't do it! That's why it all happened!

But she also felt that even if she didn't teach Xinxin to do these things, given the situation at home, seeing how busy her sister was, she would be able to handle these things!

Children from poor families grow up early, and there are many things they don't need to be taught! Perhaps when people are broken, they always think that those who can help them should grow up overnight! No matter what the process is, as long as the result is satisfactory to them!

So, you will unconsciously complain about the unsatisfactory results!

Listening to her mother's complaints, she felt a pang of grievance. She had thought that after doing so much, her mother would praise her. She thought she had done well enough, but not only did her mother not see it, she also complained that she hadn't done things well!

She never explained anything, only cried in frustration! She used to have her sisters backing her up, so she didn't have to worry about anything! Now she's all on her own, and it seems like she has to do everything and do it well!

But my mother didn't give me any time to adapt. Should I seamlessly carry on everything my sister has done?

She felt extremely aggrieved and couldn't help sobbing. Yang Yu looked at her and felt even more irritated! She was so tired and wanted to rest, so she could just sit down for a while!

But she couldn't, because there were still a lot of things waiting for her to do! She couldn't, and wouldn't, comfort Xinxin. Because since she was a child, no one had ever taught her what comfort was.

Perhaps, what's the point of comforting her? Isn't it all self-digesting? She just wants to finish the work quickly. It's already late, and she still has to finish the unfinished work tomorrow morning!

She has too many things to do and never has enough time. She has no time to be sad, and even less time to accompany Xinxin to grow up!

Seeing Xinxin crying out of grievance, Yang Yu said anxiously, "Stop crying! What's there to cry about? Your mother is almost dying of exhaustion. Come and help me get the pigs into the pigpen!"

Xinxin saw how tired her mother was. She had wanted to help her mother relieve her burden, but she hadn't expected to cause such trouble for her. Feeling wronged and guilty, she stepped forward and helped her mother drive the two smelly pigs into the pigpen!

Those two pigs were bullies who only bullied the weak and feared the strong. In response to Yang Yu’s loud scolding, they actually went into the pigpen obediently!

Yang Yu casually fixed the pigpen, then busied himself with cutting pig food and poured some raw food in to fill the stomachs of the two stinky pigs!

Then he poured the remaining pig feed into the pot and quickly built a fire to cook it. After the pig feed was done, Yang Yu smelled the aroma of rice coming from the pot next to him!

She looked at Xinxin with some surprise and asked, "Did you cook?"

Hearing her mother's surprise, Xinxin forced a smile and said, "Well, I cooked it...!"

After saying this, she felt a little hope that her mother would praise her. She stood aside and waited silently.

Yang Yu said with relief, "Not bad! I thought you were at home, so you were just sitting there waiting for me to come back!"

As she spoke, she opened the lid of the pot. However, after seeing the rice in the pot, her face immediately darkened again!

I wanted to get angry at Xinxin, but I also sighed helplessly, "Look at yourself, what kind of meal did you cook? It's half-cooked! Can't you open the lid of the pot and take a look? How can I eat it..."

After Xinxin was praised, the smile on her face froze instantly, and she only heard the word "half-cooked".

I clearly smelled the aroma of food, and I clearly made the same movements when I looked at my sister. Why did this happen?

She didn't understand why the meal she worked so hard to make was only half-cooked?

Looking at the disappointment in her mother's eyes, she suddenly felt so useless at that moment. All her previous efforts and persistence seemed like a joke at this moment!

I clearly want my mother to come back so that I can have a delicious meal. I clearly want my mother to come back so that I don’t have to be so tired. I can do all the housework and let my mother have no worries!

But now, there is no delicious meal, only half-cooked rice and a black mass of vegetables. I can’t do anything well. Not only can I not help my mother, but I have caused trouble for her!

Sure enough, when Yang Yu saw the black dish on the side, she said angrily and anxiously, "What the hell did you make? If you can't make it, don't waste it for me! Why are you so stupid? You can't do anything well? Forget it, I'll do it myself..."

When Yang Yu opened the water jar and looked at the jar with little water, he muttered, "There's no water left! I have to fetch two more buckets of water! Oh, without Huanhuan and Yaya to help, there are so many things to do..."

However, she didn't know that the water tank was actually empty, and that little bit of water was fetched by Xinxin in the dark with great difficulty!

Xinxin stood there, not having the courage to tell her mother that she had fetched that little bit of water with great difficulty!

Perhaps in the eyes of her mother, that little bit of water is insignificant. Even if she knows that it was Xinxin who brought it back, she will just think that the water is too little and it is a waste of time going back and forth! There is no point at all!

Xinxin felt like someone had poured a bucket of water over her head, piercing her bones! Her heart was so cold, she was shivering with cold, and she missed her sister again!
