Chapter 229: Don’t Try to Sucking Blood from Adopted Sons and Daughters 12

"That won't work!"

Liu Lanlan looked annoyed and refused firmly. Her noodles had not been served yet, and her eyes were about to fall into Lu Yi's bowl of noodles.

"This noodle costs thirty cents a bowl. I paid for it, so of course I have to chew it slowly and savor it. If I gobble it up, my thirty cents will be wasted."

She stood up, took the bowl of noodles from the stall owner, and eagerly took a mouthful. She continued, "I have a plan. Even if I don't have time to cook, I can still find time to steam a pot of sweet potatoes."

The two stopped talking and ate mouthful after mouthful of noodles. Lu Yi savored the chewy noodles and immediately felt even more hungry.

After Lu Yi finished eating, Liu Lanlan still had a few mouthfuls in her bowl, but she was reluctant to finish it all in one go. She lowered her voice and said to Lu Yi, "Second sister-in-law, I want to discuss something with you."

Lu Yi gave him a look, "What's the matter?"

She rubbed her hands and gestured, "That malted milk you bought, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but I've never tasted anything so nutritious. This stuff is usually sold in cans at the supply and marketing cooperatives, and I've never been willing to buy it, and I can't afford a whole can."

Lu Yi nodded seriously.

"I haven't tried it either. If my parents hadn't given me some dowry, I wouldn't be able to afford this can. I don't know how good it tastes."

Seeing that she only sighed and didn't respond, Liu Lanlan felt a little disappointed, but she quickly calmed down. After all, this was malted milk. Let alone her sister-in-law, even if it was her own sister, she might not be willing to share it with her.

"Second sister-in-law, I'm not asking for it for free. I'll exchange a handful of red dates with you, okay? Can you make a bowl for me to bring to my room? In exchange for one bowl, Sanzhu and I can both try this nutritious food." Sanzhu took two sips, and the rest was hers.

"Okay, come to my room after dinner tonight." Lu Yi quickly agreed.

"Hey! You are really my dear sister-in-law! I'll grab these dates for you first."

Liu Lanlan smiled and grabbed a handful of red dates and put them into Lu Yibu's pocket. She felt that her hands were not big enough, so she suppressed her pain and grabbed another handful.

On the way back, Liu Lanlan muttered, "Before you, Second Sister-in-law, married me, I didn't even have anyone to talk to in confidence in the Jiang family. Don't look at my eldest sister-in-law, she's quick at work, but if I don't tell you, you'd never guess her temper, she's as narrow-minded as a needle."

Liu Lanlan chuckled and said to Lu Yi, "When I think about me bringing a bowl of malted milk back to the house in front of her tonight, she will definitely be so angry that her eyes will pop out."

"Third sister-in-law, what a mouth you have." Lu Yi thought of a frog with bulging eyes and couldn't help laughing.

"Well, it's all the result of practice. It would be great if I could make my second sister-in-law laugh." Liu Lanlan brushed her hair behind her ears and hurried back.

Lu Yi looked at her back as she rushed back home, thinking that this Liu Lanlan really looked at people based on their status. When she met the docile and easy-to-bully original owner, she would join the Jiang family in oppressing her, but when she met someone with a different personality, she would make friends with them.

Lu Yi stepped in. If nothing unexpected happened, she would have to live in the Jiang family for half a year. She would wait for Jiang Erzhu to come back before discussing the division of the family.

Wang Zhaoyin picked up a piece of cabbage with chopsticks and felt very annoyed when he saw Liu Lanlan's happy expression.

"Third sister-in-law, your expression changes so quickly. At noon, you looked guilty for letting my parents, who were doing manual labor, eat only sweet potatoes for lunch, but now you're chatting and laughing with my second sister-in-law. Are you no longer feeling guilty so quickly?"

"What do you mean by changing your face? Those are sweet potatoes, not pig grass. Why do you dislike them so much?"

Liu Lanlan ate her rice and muttered, "I paid out of my own pocket to give everyone two red dates, but some people ate them and then just pooped them out, not remembering the kindness of others at all."

"Hey! You're talking about eating and pooping while I'm eating! Are you trying to make you feel sick? Liu Lanlan, do you still see me as your sister-in-law?" Wang Zhaoyin slammed the bowl on the table.

A conflict is coming.

"Okay, be quiet, it's all noisy and it's not proper for everyone to make noise!" Old man Jiang knocked the edge of the bowl twice with his chopsticks.

"Listen to Dad."

Liu Lanlan smiled with her eyes narrowed, not caring about Wang Zhaoyin's murderous gaze. After finishing her meal, she took the empty bowl and followed Lu Yi back to the house.

"Where have you been? You're just so perfunctory in cooking that you don't even want to wash the dishes?!"

Liu Lanlan turned around and said impatiently, "Sister-in-law, if you know, you are reminding me. If you don't know, you might think that our Jiang family has a new landlord supervisor. Do you want me to give you a whip and chase me around to work?"

Wang Zhaoyin's face flushed red as he mumbled, "What landlord overseer? I'm just worried you'll be lazy!"

"Old Third, don't say a word like that again!" Old Man Jiang warned in a deep voice. Old Lady Jiang beside him also changed her expression, her heart beat faster, and she subconsciously looked towards the yard.

"Yes, Lanlan, you can't say such things."

The supervision is not strict now, but it is better to be safe than sorry, Old Mrs. Jiang warned with a rare stern face.

"I understand, Mom and Dad. If it weren't for my eldest sister-in-law always targeting me, I wouldn't be such a careless person." Liu Lanlan smiled smoothly, "Second sister-in-law, let's go."

Wang Zhaoyin's face turned blue and white. He stayed and was scolded by the two old men before the matter was over. After they returned to the house, Wang Zhaoyin turned his head suddenly and met the eyes of Yuan Zifan and Yuan Danniu who were laughing at the show.

"What are you looking at! Well, you two little bastards dare to laugh at me?! Stop eating."

Wang Zhaoyin snatched the bowl and drank the remaining half bowl of porridge in one gulp.

Yuan Danniu failed to snatch it, so she pouted and looked like she was about to cry, staring at her and grinding her teeth.

"What? You still dare to stare at me? Do you want to go hungry tomorrow?" Wang Zhaoyin raised his voice and shouted.

Yuan Danniu lowered her head in fear. She had been hungry for two meals and her stomach was burning with discomfort. She didn't want to experience it again.

"You bastard." Wang Zhaoyin cursed in a low voice, then wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, sat down on the steps outside the door, and stared at Lu Yi's closed door.

She wanted to see when the third brother would come out to wash the dishes, and not think of pushing it to Sanzhu again.

"Brother, that was my porridge, and that woman drank it all!"

"I drank the rice soup on top on purpose, and saved the thickest layer of porridge for last, but it's all gone." Yuan Danniu secretly glared at Wang Zhaoyin's back, speaking in a low voice filled with resentment.

A dragon trapped in shallow water and bullied by a dog! Yuan Zifan closed his eyes.

"Don't be afraid, I'll make her suffer in the future!" He squeezed out each word from between his teeth, the gloom in his eyes almost overflowing, and reached out to comfort Yuan Danniu.

After entering the house, Liu Lanlan put the bowl on the table, moved a stool and looked forward to watching Lu Yi bring the bottle of malted milk.

"This smells so good, it smells so good just by smelling it."

Liu Lanlan's eyes lit up as she looked at the granules in the jar. She sniffed again and again, then hurried back to the kitchen to get the kettle.
