When passing by Niu Chunhua, he poked her angrily, "What are you doing standing here like an idiot? I have to do it myself! How can you be so grown up and have no sense at all? I really regret helping Mingde marry you. You can't even control your husband, and you don't care about the family affairs..."

Niu Chunhua habitually dodged to the side and numbly followed her into the yard.

Niu Chunhua had just picked up a chicken when Wang Xiu started yelling, "Are you doing this on purpose? You're picking on the skinny ones, aren't you? Mingli finally came back, and you have to be so stingy and do this to him?"

Niu Chunhua had no choice but to put down the chicken in his hand and turn around to catch the fattest one.

Niu Chunhua had just picked up the chicken when Wang Xiu started yelling again, "Are you stupid? How can you kill a chicken that's just started laying eggs? How could you be so greedy? You're just worried about not getting any oily food on the table, right? You're so obsessed with grabbing this fattest hen, aren't you?"

Wang Xiu was just looking for trouble. As long as Niu Chunhua caught any of the animals, she would find a reason to scold her.

Ever since the Liu family was beaten back by the Ye family two years ago, the others were fine, but Liu Mingli was guilty of his crime and happened to be interrogated by the police after he came back. He was so scared that he could not recover and could only drink at home every day.

No one in the family blamed each other, and in the end they all blamed Niu Chunhua, the "outsider".

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are prone to conflicts. Wang Xiu has always disliked Niu Chunhua, and since then, she has been finding fault with her every day. Niu Chunhua will be scolded for everything she does.

Niu Chunhua had no mother's family and only gave birth to two daughters, so she could not stand up straight in the Liu family.

I can only endure it silently.

Niu Chunhua let go of the old hen in her hand and stood there in a daze. She would be scolded anyway, so she simply stopped moving to save some energy.

Wang Xiu became even more angry when she saw her stupid look. She went up and poked Niu Chunhua's forehead hard, cursing, "Are you dead? I told you to catch a chicken, and you just stand there like an idiot? What? Am I unable to make you do anything?"

Niu Chunhua still said nothing.

Wang Xiu felt that his monologue was meaningless after scolding him, so he pointed at a chicken that looked a little wilted and said to Niu Chunhua, "Go catch that chicken and kill it."

Niu Chunhua stepped forward immediately after hearing this. The chicken lay motionless, waiting for her to catch it, chasing and flapping its wings, very quietly.

Like her, they were numb and resigned to their fate.

Wang Xiu was speaking very loudly throughout the whole process. Liu Mingli heard the noise in the yard from the beginning, but he didn't stand up and say anything. After all, it wasn't him who was being scolded, so what did it have to do with him?

But Wang Xiu's crude and shrewish image was indeed very annoying, which was one of the reasons why he didn't come back often. Liu Mingli considered himself a cultured and educated respectable man. How could he continue to interact with such vulgar people at home?

Can't get on the table.

When Liu Jianguo came back at dinner time, he was surprised to see Liu Mingli. He greeted him eagerly, "Mingli is back!"

Liu Jianguo, proud of his status as the head of the family, would not be as fawning as Wang Xiu, but his happiness was obvious.

Liu Ming responded as expected.

Wang Xiu also came up with a pot of stewed chicken. After sitting down, she immediately tore off a large chicken leg and enthusiastically placed it in Liu Mingli's bowl. "Come on, Mingli, how about trying it? Mom stewed it especially for you."

Niu Chunhua, who had been busy for half a day, brought a plate of vegetables and placed it on the table. Even though her work was overshadowed, she didn't say anything. After all, what difference would it make?

Liu Mingli put a piece of chicken into Liu Jianguo and Wang Xiu's bowls respectively, and said warmly, "Mom and Dad, you have worked hard too. Eat more."

Wang Xiu exclaimed, "Hey!" and praised, "The youngest son is the best! So considerate and filial!"

Niu Chunhua laughed sarcastically. She was busy at home and didn't get any praise, but Liu Mingli, who was just offering a favor to someone else, was praised to the sky.

Did her parents-in-law really think her brother-in-law would fall for this? She didn't think so.

Think about Liu Mingde, who was also so pampered in the past, but now he is too drunk to sit at the table, and no one cares about him.

Liu Chunhua just felt it was ironic. This was the Liu family. None of them would do anything without profit.

Liu Mingli had seen through it a long time ago. He knew that his mother was not sincere, but he would not expose her. After all, his mother did not ask him to extend his hand, right?

In the past, with the contrast of his second brother Liu Mingjun, Liu Mingli was also complacent, thinking that as the youngest son, he was still quite favored in the family.

Later, after Liu Mingjun moved out, Liu Mingli realized that his brother Liu Mingde was the only one valued in the family.

At other times, Liu Mingli could get some benefits by coaxing his parents with sweet words. But if there was a competition for interests, Liu Mingli had to unconditionally give in to Liu Mingde, the so-called eldest son of the Liu family.

Ever since Liu Mingli saw this clearly, he knew that the Liu family could not be of any help to him in the future, so he resolutely climbed up to his current Yue family.

Liu Mingli picked up the chicken leg from the bowl and took a bite. It tasted really good. It wasn't as bony and meatless as chicken wings, nor was it as dry and tough as chicken breast.

He snorted inwardly. How could he have had a turn to eat chicken legs before? Even though he was the caring and filial youngest son, he had to give in when Liu Mingde asked for two chicken legs.

If Liu Mingde wasn't completely disabled now and couldn't provide for the old couple in their old age, he probably wouldn't be able to get the chicken legs in this family for the rest of his life, right?

But what's the use? He can always eat at Yue's house.

As for the braised chicken, now this tasteless stew is just average to him.

Seeing that he was enjoying the meal, Liu Jianguo tore off another chicken leg and handed it to Liu Mingli's bowl, saying, "Eat more if you like it."

Liu Mingli sat in the seat that was originally only for the eldest son of the Liu family and smiled sarcastically.
