In the 12th year of the great cause, the spring is cold and the whole northern part of the country is still shrouded in depression.
It was a time of chaos, and there was chaos everywhere. Perhaps today I heard that a certain general led his troops to occupy the county seat. And soon there was news that the general was beheaded by his subordinates, and the whole Zhuo County was panicked. Many people have closed their doors, trying not to go out if they can.
In Tongmu Village, an eight-year-old boy was carefully feeding water to his mother.
There was a middle-aged beautiful woman in her thirties leaning on the couch. She had fair skin and a beautiful face. She was very different from the peasant women in Tongmu Village. However, this beautiful woman had a sick face, and from time to time she tilted her head and coughed.
“Mother, you’ve been sick for five days, and you can’t drag it on any longer. Should I go and beg my grandmother to ask her to find a doctor for you?”
“No need.” Zhao Xiu Lan put down the water and said in a hoarse voice, “It’s just a normal cold. It’s fine. Your grandmother never likes me. Don’t bother her. It’ll be bad if she gets mad at you.”
Before she could finish speaking, her throat tickled for a while, and then a piercing cough.
Zhao Xiu Lan was the eldest daughter-in-law of the Xiao family. But unfortunately, she was not favored by her mother-in-law, and even her son Xiao Jing Duo is not favored. Zhao Xiu Lan felt bitter in her heart. Her son was obviously the eldest grandson of the eldest house. But in front of her mother-in-law, he was not as good as that rascal of the second house. She blamed her and made Duo er tired.
Xiao Jing Duo quickly patted his mother on the back. Zhao Xiu Lan coughed for a long time before stopping, and even her voice was hoarse. The boy frowned, stood up directly, and walked out of the house: “How can I do this, I’ll go find my grandmother.”
“Duo er, come back quickly!” Zhao Xiu Lan shouted from behind.
However, Xiao Jing Duo looks delicate and delicate, but his personality is completely opposite to his appearance and tough. He closed the door for his mother, and then quickly ran towards old lady Xiao’s main house.
Old lady Xiao was furious in the kitchen at the moment. She pointed to the broken pieces of porcelain on the ground and asked fiercely, “Tell me, who did it?”
The Xiao family is an ordinary farming family in Tongmu Village, Zhuo County, living together for three generations. After Grandpa Xiao passed away, Grandma Xiao was the oldest, and the whole family had to look at her face to live. The old lady has a total of three sons and a daughter, all of whom have married. Now only three sons live with the old lady. The old lady favored her second son since he was a child, so the second room was the most domineering in the family. The second house has two daughters and one son, Xiao Yu Fang, Xiao Yu Li, and Xiao Jing Hu according to age. The third house has a daughter and a son, Xiao Yu Mang and Xiao Jing Wu. Although Xiao Yu Mang is the eldest of the third room, firstly Xiao Yu Mang is younger than the two girls in the second room and ranks third in the family, and secondly, her younger brother Xiao Jing Wu has just been able to walk, so Xiao Yu Mang is always bullied by the second room’s people.
At this moment, Erniang Xiao Yu Li and Sanniang Xiao Yu Mang stood in front of the old lady with their heads down and dejected, not even daring to breathe. Old Lady Xiao holds the family’s money in her hand. She has a strong desire to control, and she prefers sons over daughters. She is extremely stingy. Now she sees her two granddaughters cooking in the kitchen. Of course, the old lady was furious. She wished to give the culprit a good kick and lock her up for three days and three nights.
Xiao Yu Li glanced at the old lady quietly. She shrank from her grandmother’s face. She said as delicately as a mosquito, “It was broken by Sanniang…”
The old lady’s knife-like gaze immediately turned to Xiao Yu Mang. Xiao Yu Mang trembled and waved his hand quickly: “I don’t have it, grandmother. Xiao Yu Li, you are so nasty. Obviously, I was walking with a bowl in my hand, but you suddenly bumped into me and caused me to throw the bowl. You still dare to be wicked now. Complain first!”
“You are talking nonsense!” Xiao Yuli also responded eloquently. She swept a figure out of the corner of her eye. When she rolled her eyes, she suddenly had an idea, “Grandmother, the bowl was broken by Sanniang, if you don’t believe me, ask the second brother!”
Xiao Yu Li pulled Xiao Jing Hu over, pinched him quietly, and asked, “Hu Er. You also think Xiao Yu Meng broke the cup, don’t she?”
