Chapter 19: Yield

After another two days, Ding Yezi insisted that either everyone work together or no one else. But because of Ding Rou's stubborn resistance, the Ding family really ran out of food.

Ding Yezi and Ding's mother are okay, they are both people who are used to living a hard life, even if they only drink gruel and pickles all day long, the two of them are very happy to eat. But Ding Rou couldn't stand this kind of suffering. She is also very stingy, although she holds a lot of valuable jewelry in her hand, which is enough to maintain her life alone for a long time, but those are the dowries she prepared for herself, if she takes it out and uses it now, what will she do when she gets married in the future?

With Ding Yezi's current attitude, it is impossible to prepare a large dowry for her, so she doesn't have to think about it.

On the fourth day, Ding Yezi was sitting at the table with Ding's mother drinking gruel, Ding Rou finally couldn't stand it anymore, and walked to the edge of the table with her eyes dazzled and leaning against the wall.

Seeing the two of them eating happily, Ding Rou's eyes were red, tears rolled down, and she sobbed: "Mother, sister, do you really care about me?" ”

Ding's mother looked at Ding Rou embarrassedly, she didn't drink porridge all the time, and she didn't drink porridge.

She only had two meals with Ding Rou, and Ding Rou didn't take her with her. Ding's mother was embarrassed to beg Ding Page for food, so she had to cook porridge and drink it by herself. But unfortunately, when she just cooked two porridges, the rice jar was empty!

Ding Yezi still had a little money left around, so he went out to buy some rice and came back to eat, but the rice was still in the rice jar and was not specially hidden.

But maybe Ding's mother thinks too much, she always thinks that it is the rice that Ding Page bought back, and now Ding Page has this attitude at home, so she should not eat what Ding Page bought back again.

In this way, Ding's mother was hungry twice.

Ding Page looked at Ding's mother's masochistic appearance, and he couldn't bear it. After thinking about it, although Ding's mother's temperament is a little weaker, sometimes partiality is also human nature, not to mention that Ding's mother is also the kind of diligent person on weekdays, often helping her work together, but she is not lazy or anything. And her current actions are just forcing Ding Rou to do things with her, not against Ding's mother.

In this way, at the next meal, Ding Yezi glanced at Ding's mother, who was looking at her not far away, sighed, got up and invited her to the table, and the two of them ate together.

Ding's mother first began to be polite to outsiders, until Ding Page said that the porridge had been cooked too much, and now it was hot, and if the porridge was not eaten, it would be spoiled at home. In this way, Ding's mother drank the porridge happily, and then ate it with Ding Page.

The more it came to this time, Ding's mother could be considered to understand.

thought that she had been hungry for two days, and the second daughter, who was carrying a lot of money by her side, didn't even care about her life or death, she only cared about going out to find something to eat by herself, and didn't care about her as a mother at all. As for the eldest daughter, she has been forced to do things since she was a child, and in the end, the eldest daughter gave her something to eat.

Every time I think of this gap, Ding's mother can't help but feel sad. is really blind to her love for her little daughter for so many years, that white-eyed wolf, who doesn't recognize her as a mother at all.

On this day, Ding Rou was really hungry in her stomach, so she slowly moved to the table, wanting to ask her mother and Ding Yezi for a bite to eat. It's just that to her surprise, before Ding Page could speak, her mother spoke. And instead of talking to her as usual, he reprimanded her.

"Hmph......" Ding's mother didn't look at Ding Rou on the side, and said in a cold voice: "Isn't there a lot of money around you, since you have a lot of money and are hungry, why don't you go out to buy food by yourself?" There are so many restaurants outside, I think that as long as you bring money with you, no matter where you go, they will treat you like a bodhisattva. ”

Ding Rou's eyes became redder and redder, and she didn't expect that her mother would speak to her like this one day.

She sighed: "But those coins are the dowry I prepared for myself, if I use it, how can I marry it in the future?" ”

In the past, Ding's mother felt that Ding Rou's reason was quite sufficient. Originally, if a woman marries her husband's family, the dowry she brings over naturally belongs to her own son, as long as the dowry is rich, she will have a deep confidence in speaking and doing things in her husband's family, and she does not have to worry that a weak woman will be bullied in her husband's family.

But after experiencing this Ding page's strike, Ding's mother felt that even if your dowry is important, can you still have the life of your mother?

In this way, Ding's mother's attitude towards Ding Rou has changed so dramatically. But Ding Rou, who was in it, didn't understand it yet, and thought that Ding's mother's attitude had changed now because Ding Yezi had said something bad about her in her mother's ear.

So after she finished explaining, she viciously threw a knife at Ding Page.

Ding Yezi naturally won't worry about such a little girl, you will have a knife in your eyes, and you won't let her have one less piece of meat on her body anyway, you can play with it.

Ding's mother snorted coldly, "Yes, when your mother and I starve to death, there will be no elders in your family to help you preside over the marriage, and you have already prepared such a rich dowry, and you will be better married at that time, isn't it?" ”

Ding Rou sneered, "Mother, how can you starve to death, look at you if you are sitting here properly, it's really a joke." ”

Mother Ding glanced at her coldly and snorted angrily, "If I follow you, a ruined girl, I'm afraid I'm really going to starve to death!" Are you embarrassed to say such a thing in front of me now? You unfilial disobedient son, I have really hurt you in vain for so many years. ”

Ding Rou's face turned pale, and she asked tremblingly, "Mother, do you really care about me?" ”

Ding Mu said in a strange voice: "Yo...... Rich young lady, my old wife can only drink gruel now, where is the spare time to care about you? You can go wherever you want to enjoy the shade. ”

Ding Rou's face turned pale.

In her opinion, no matter what she does, no matter how excessive she is, her mother should be on her side. Because she is the real treasure in the palm of her father's hand, how can her mother say such things to her now?

Seeing Ding Mu drinking gruel slowly, it was very sweet, Ding Rou's stomach gurgled again, obviously hungry.

She looked at Ding Page with blank eyes, since Ding's mother was unreliable, she could only beg the eldest sister again. The two of them can't really ignore her, right? After all, they are still a family.

At this time, Ding Rou remembered that she and the person in front of her were a family.

Ding Yezi looked up at her at the right time, and said softly with an expressionless face: "Rou'er, now that it's like this, can you agree to my conditions?" ”

Ding Rou nodded hurriedly, and said in a loud voice: "Promise, sister, no matter what you ask me to do now, I will do it, as long as you give me a bite to eat." ”

Ding Rou was actually a little unimpressed, but now that she was hungry, she tricked Ding Page into giving her something to eat first.

Ding Yezi raised her eyebrows slightly, of course she couldn't guess Ding Rou's thoughts, but she wouldn't just give Ding Rou something to eat. At this time, the sun was scorching badly outside, Ding Yezi stretched out his hand and pointed to the courtyard outside, and said, "Rou'er, since you agreed to my conditions, then please do something first, and when you finish your work, I will naturally give you something to eat." The first thing I did was to help me sweep the yard, and when I was done, I would serve you porridge. ”

Hearing that Ding Page asked her to go down to sweep the yard in this weather, Ding Rou suddenly became angry, and just straightened her back, wanting to make a good living with Ding Page, but there was a soft grunt in her stomach again.

Alas...... The people regard food as the sky, and when she has her full stomach, it is not too late to talk to Ding Page.

In this way, Ding Rou had no choice but to go out of the hall with a huff, took a broom from the utility room, and swept it up in the yard.

But while she was sweeping, there were countless resentments in her heart. Thinking that she Ding Rou has grown so big, how can she ever do such rough work? Hasn't this always been what she should do? It's good now, my father is not here, and my mother doesn't help her, so Ding Page rode on her head all of a sudden.

The more Ding Rou thought about it, the more sad she became, the more angry she became, a good yard was dusty by her, only the more she swept it, the dirtier it became, but it was not clean at all, and even some dust ran into the house.

Ding Yezi was speechless, she knew that Ding Rou would not work, but she really didn't expect it to be to this extent. Is this Ding Rou sweeping the floor with a broom outside, or is she practicing calligraphy?

Ding Yezi put down the bowl, walked to Ding Rou's side in the courtyard, took the broom in her hand, and instructed in a deep voice: "Rou'er, I didn't say you, what is the name of the place you just swept?" Is it sweeping or ghost-drawing? Come, now I will teach you how to sweep the floor, and if you do, I will give you food. ”

Ding Rou was unwilling to follow Ding Page's side, but she had to carefully watch her sweeping method.

For the sake of her stomach, she put up with it for the time being!

When Ding Page was taught for the third time, Ding Rou swept the floor and looked like it, at least she could sweep it clean.

In this way, Ding Yezi didn't talk to her much, and after letting her sweep around the yard, he went to the kitchen and served a bowl of gruel for her to eat.

In fact, Ding Yezi is not really ruthless, but there are some things that should be fought for, and this lazy habit can't be left to her. Now Ding Rou is okay at home, and the family won't worry too much about her, but with her current temper, if she marries her husband's family, she will definitely have to suffer. Who can stand this kind of living ancestor?

In this way, Ding Page had to do it.

But thinking that Ding Rou was hungry and sweeping the floor today, she must be even hungrier after sweeping. In this way, Ding Yezi deliberately fished at the bottom of the pot, specially served her a thicker porridge, and let her eat a full stomach.

Anyway, Ding Rou is also her sister now.
