In the years of famine, the knife in my mother's hand is not bad either

"Mom!"

"Are these all from our family?" Wang Wu asked stutteringly.

With shock in his eyes, he couldn't wait to run to the cellar and reach out to touch the scattered old corn.

Watching the corn slipping through his fingers, Wang Wu couldn't suppress the excitement on his face.

"That's great...they're all ours!"

"Then in this year of disaster, our family won't be ripped off by those unscrupulous grain merchants, and we won't have to worry about anyone starving to death..."

Wang Tianci and his wife looked at the cellar full of grain and were shocked.

Look at each other.

At the same time, he showed a heartfelt smile: When I went to my father-in-law's house a few days ago, my father-in-law was still complaining that there was not much food left at home, and all the money was used to buy food. There was no way to get food within half a month, and he might have to sell the land!

I was worrying about how to help my father-in-law.

A Niang gave them this big surprise.

The first to react were the twins Wang You and Wang Liang!

"No, mother!"

"You want to sell all this food? Why?"

"The hundreds of kilograms of grain we have at home are not enough to last until next spring!" Wang You and Wang Liang spoke up one after another, anxiously stopping the drivers who were planning to come over to help carry the bags of grain.

"Yes! You can't sell it!" Wang Tianci also reacted and shouted loudly!

If his mother sells these grains, how can he help his father-in-law's family get through the difficult times?

His heart broke when he thought of his father-in-law's pleading look!

When Liu saw Wang Tianci speak, she lowered her head silently and stopped talking.

After all, this evil mother-in-law never shows mercy to me.

"Can't sell it?" Shen Qian snorted coldly, and her eyes swept over them, revealing the aura of a wicked mother.

"Why can't I sell the food I bought?"

"Also, this family...when will it be your turn to be the boss?"

"Wang Wu!" As she spoke, the four people who were swept by Shen Qian's cold gaze all lowered their heads.

Don't dare to look directly.

Wang Wu, who was holding corn in his hands in the cellar, stiffened his back the moment he heard his mother calling his name.

A trembling voice came out of his mouth:

"Ah...Mother!"

"Within half an hour, the grain will be bagged and loaded onto the truck." Shen Qian heard Wang Wu's trembling reply and knew that he was still afraid of her, so she gave a direct order:

"If you can't finish it, you won't have to eat for the next two days!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Qian heard the sound of corn being put into sacks below.

But there was no response, which made Shen Qian frown slightly:

"Did you hear that?"

"I heard it! Mother!" Wang Wu was frightened by his mother's sudden yell again, and the shovel hit the top of the cellar, and the stick hit his vital parts.

He covered his vital parts in pain and responded to Shen Qian.

"You three are the same." Shen Qian shouted at Wang Tianci, Wang You and Wang Liang who were still standing there stupidly.

Now, all three of them joined in the busy work of loading food.

Liu stood aside, pounding the ground with her linen shoes, thinking to herself: If these are all sold by the evil mother-in-law, what will happen to my parents' family?

Seeing the price of food getting higher and higher, why do I have to deal with such a stupid, tyrannical and evil mother-in-law!

Wang Miaomiao stood there in a daze.

I hate the four Wang Wu brothers so much!

They had clearly agreed to stand firmly on their side, but when faced with the orders from their tyrannical and evil mother, none of them dared to say a word!

And the corn rice these days is all made by ourselves!

This evil mother was just threatening to withhold food. They could just make more food and feed them when the time came! Why should they continue to obey her orders?

I don't understand why they are so stupid.

But at this time, not only were there villagers and neighbors outside, but there were also coachmen from the county town.

If you get into a fight with your evil mother, you will definitely be the one who suffers in the end because of her aggressive personality.

So she could only swallow the broken teeth.

Aunt Li, who was passing by Shen Qian's house, opened her mouth wide when she saw the ox cart full of grain in front of Shen Qian's house!

I thought to myself: Didn't Wang Shen buy several hundred kilograms of grain recently? How could she pull so much?

Look at what’s already loaded on the ox cart, it weighs at least 1,500 kilograms!

When she saw Wang Shenshi carrying a bag of linen weighing 100 kilograms to the ox cart and putting it on the cart, she asked:

"Wang Shen!"

"How come you have so much food stored at home?"

"I stockpiled some in advance before the collective grain purchase in the village." Shen Qian answered directly without hiding anything.

The women watching watched as Shen Qian carried three thousand kilograms of grain out of the cellar and loaded it onto a truck.

Everyone is so envious!

After all, the original purchase price of grain was only three cents per pound, but now.

The price of these grains has soared to a bonus of forty cents!

If they had the courage of Wang Shenshi, they would probably be the ones loading and selling grain right now!

As all the grain was loaded onto the cart, Shen Qian sat on Wang Daniu's ox cart.

Wang Tianci watched as the three ox carts started off and shouted to Shen Qian:

"Mom...can you sell less?"

"There's not enough food stored at home."

Faced with Wang Tianci's question, Shen Qian was too lazy to even reply.

Shen Qian didn't even turn her head until Wang Daniu's ox cart disappeared from everyone's sight.

Wang Tianci looked at his mother's resolute expression and stomped his feet in frustration.

"Hey!"

As the neighbors dispersed.

Wang Miaomiao looked at Wang Wu and the other three with her eyes widened:

"traitor!"

"A bunch of traitors!"

"What traitor?" Seeing his second sister furious, Wang Tianci quickly dodged to the side of his wife Liu and asked Wang Miaomiao in confusion.

"When that evil mother shouted, you were frightened and went to complete what she instructed you to do. Isn't that treason?" Wang Miaomiao saw Wang Tianci's puzzled expression and her mentality collapsed:

"I clearly said that I would stand firmly on my side!"

"For you, I've been staring down that evil mother's oppression these days and insisting on eating corn and rice three times a day. Go ask who out there can afford to eat like this with food prices soaring!"

Listen to Wang Miaomiao vent her dissatisfaction.

Wang Wu, Wang You, and Wang Liang all lowered their heads.

However, Wang Tianci frowned.

If Wang Miaomiao hadn't told him, he wouldn't have been able to find out the reason why his mother sold the grain. Now that Wang Miaomiao took the initiative to bring it up, he finally understood why his mother was so determined to sell the grain today!

"Okay!"

"So the problem lies with you!" Wang Tianci's voice rose an octave, causing Wang Wu and the other two, who had lowered their heads, to prick up their ears.

"We have over 3,000 kilograms of food stored at home. As long as we eat normally, we'll have no problem eating it until next autumn's harvest!"

"But today, my mother was determined to sell the grain. Wasn't it because she was provoked by you, a wicked girl?"

"Who can afford to support eight people at home and eat dry rice for three meals a day?"

"Mother thought that with so much food left at home, we wouldn't be able to survive until next autumn's harvest, so she sold the food with such a sad price that it fluctuated daily!"

It's rare to hear Wang Tianci speak with such a powerful voice.

When it entered the heads of several people, it was even more deafening!

So...my mother sold grain because my second sister was overusing it?
