Chapter 20: For Quail Meat

"Well, there's nothing wrong with you two, right?"

As soon as Zhang Xinghua entered the door, she hugged the sister and brother tightly in her arms and carefully examined their bodies.

Fortunately, I didn't see them hurt, but I was relieved that the two little ones had become clean.

"Mom, we caught a quail today, and we found an egg!"

Brother Su has always had a big heart, and after seeing his parents, he forgot that he was frightened by the old lady's scolding just now and drilled into his sister's arms, and immediately went to find out the nine bird eggs he had hidden, and said with a smile.

"Mom, Dad, Big Brother, Second Brother, and Sister and Little Sister all have a share!"

"It's so small, so you can keep it for yourself. ”

Zhang Xinghua saw that there was nothing wrong with her sister and brother, so she relieved herself.

Seeing his youngest son so sensible, he was also very happy, smiling and rubbing his somewhat wet hair.

Su Jianwu sighed and said with a gloomy expression, "I didn't expect my mother to become like this now, and she wasn't like this before." ”

"Hmph, it's not that I'm weak-minded! Su Jianwu, I can tell you, next time your mother bullies my daughter like this again, I won't give you face again!"

Zhang Xinghua was angry when she heard her man's words.

Although she also knew that Su Jianwu was not good at being a person between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, her mother-in-law like Mrs. Su was too much.

In the past, for the sake of being an elder, she should accumulate blessings if she suffered a little loss.

Who knows that now people are beating their minds on their daughters.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xinghua said with a cold face.

"It's not popular in the old society now, if your mother calls my maid with a ghost doll again, I will go to the town to write a big-character poster and report her feudal superstition!"

Zhang Xinghua said horizontally.

Su Jianwu smiled bitterly, "Okay, I'll have a good talk with my mother, okay, the eldest and second have been busy with us all morning, and now I'm hungry, you can go to the kitchen first and see what you have at noon today." ”

Zhang Xinghua was also worried that the old lady would take the opportunity to deduct the food of their family of six, so when she heard this, she immediately got up and went out in a hurry.

Su Ru pursed her lips, although her mouth was fierce, but she knew that even if the old lady continued to be a demon, her mother would never write any big-character posters to report the old lady as she said.

In this era, it is difficult to marry a daughter-in-law, if she really reports it, there will be no place for their family in this Dongxiang in the future.

After all, the old man is a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War, and almost all the villagers in Dongxiang have received the favor and benefits of the Su family, Zhang Xinghua's daughter-in-law who married outside is even if she is tortured by the old lady, at most she is gossiped behind her back, in the eyes of most people, which daughter-in-law is not like this?

The saying that a daughter-in-law becomes a mother-in-law is not a lie.

On the contrary, if the mother follows the old lady all day long, she will be gossiped about by the villagers, and even the family will be excluded.

Su Ru felt that it was definitely unrealistic to want to rely on the strength of the outside to clean up the old lady, only if her own family was strong, let the old lady eat Coptis chinensis dumbly, and she couldn't say that it was a good way to say that she was bitter.

It's a pity that she is too young and weak now, and she really doesn't have the ability to do anything.

Even if you cultivate runes, you have to wait until there is no one.

At the urging of the younger brother, Su Ru first found an excuse to go out, and then caught one of the quails in the small interface.

During this period, she also saw that the two wild quails that happened to be left in the small interface were a male and a female.

If you raise it well, you may be able to hatch a lot of small quails, and even if you don't, you can save quail eggs for a while.

The lifespan of this little thing is not long, at most it will be raised for a year.

Therefore, if you want to improve the life of your family, you must think of other ways.

At least the current situation of frequent hunger must be improved, otherwise not to mention the parents, even their children will be completely depleted by long-term malnutrition.

At noon, the Su family gathered together again, and this meal was even simpler than yesterday.

A pot of gruel, except for a few grains of rice at the bottom of the bowl, is rice soup, and the vegetables are also cut with a few pickles, and even the boiled potatoes are gone.

The old lady had a straight face and ate quietly, as if she had been educated well by the old man.

Zhang Xinghua wanted to say something when she saw today's lunch, but looking at her gloomy husband, she still didn't get angry.

"Woo, I don't want to drink water, I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat!"

When the twins of the second uncle's family saw today's lunch, they immediately made a fuss.

The second aunt lectured at them with a dark face, "What are you crying about, the family is so poor, where is there meat for you to eat, don't even drink porridge if you cry again, go back to the house and do your homework!"

"Liar, woo, Feng Xiaohua can eat quail meat, I want to eat it too! Woo, it's all Su Ru's bad, why give our quail meat to others, I want to eat it too, I want to eat it too!"

The twins look almost identical, and they cry identically.

He even stood up and glared directly at Su Ru.

"You pay for our quail meat!

"Feng Xiaohua said that you still have a quail there, why don't you take it out for us to eat, you are so selfish!"

The two nine-year-old boys cried a handful of snot and tears, but the reason in that tone almost made Su Ru laugh angrily.

What can a nine-year-old doll understand, and it is not taught by the adults in the family?

Su Ru glanced at the second aunt with a dark face, and pouted secretly.

It seems that the quail is not just the old lady making up her mind.

"Okay, don't make trouble, someone is clamoring to eat eggs early this morning, a lot of eggs at home have been smashed, our family's food is to eat a little less, it would be good to be able to give you a bowl of porridge, what a trouble!"

The second uncle's face was serious, and he taught his son a lesson.

But then he looked at Su Ru's body, showed a kind smile and said, "The matter of quails, the second aunt has already told us, quails are caught by the children of two families, and it is normal for one family." Yaya, you can eat in peace, don't meet your two younger brothers, they just haven't eaten meat for a long time, so they are hungry for your quail meat. ”

Su Ru didn't say anything, this second uncle actually dug a pit for her child, it's really shameless.

"Alas, this is still early before the day of food distribution, how can there be extra money to buy meat, Yaya, the second aunt knows that you are a good child, or ...... If you take out the quail first, it's not too late for us to be elders, so we'll give it to your brothers and sisters, even if you taste it. ”
