Chapter 10: Resentment

A meal that appears to be harmonious and laughing, but in fact many people are unsavory.

After the dishes and chopsticks were dropped, Wu stood up and wanted to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, but was stopped by Old Man Bai.

"Third daughter-in-law, you still have injuries on your body, go back and rest, this meal ......" Old Man Bai groaned for a while, and finally landed on Qian's body, "Don't worry, there are so many people in our family, someone will always clean up the rice bowl for a meal." ”

did not deliberately name names, only used his eyes to signal Qian to stand up.

It's just that Qian lowered his head as if he was distracted, and sat tightly on the stool without any sign of getting up.

"This ......," Wu was obviously a little nervous, "or not...... I'll do it anyway......"

Old Man Bai sighed secretly, didn't speak again, and acquiesced to Wu's behavior of cleaning up the table.

Bai Shao on the side looked a little angry.

Why, Qian relied on his body to be a little weak, so he sat on the wooden bench and did not move. Xu relied on his youth and delicateness, and made so many movements just after a hot meal, so that Wu had to get up to help her.

Why, why do you have to do all the work in the family alone?

Looking at Wu's thin figure, Bai Peony was angry, and Bai Peony was also distressed, so when Wu was about to get up and clean up the dishes and chopsticks, she grabbed Wu's hand and snuggled into Wu's arms coquettishly.

"Mother, mother, Shao'er is a little uncomfortable." Bai Shao deliberately said delicately.

After Wu learned that his daughter was sold into a brothel, he always felt guilty about Bai Shao, and it can be said that he loved Bai Shao more than before.

So as soon as she heard Bai Shao's words, she immediately touched Bai Shao's face with a big change in complexion, and said nervously, "Shao'er, what's wrong with you, don't scare your mother, where are you uncomfortable, tell your mother." ”

Shirakawa Kashiwa also hurried over worriedly.

Bai Shao pulled the corner of Wu's clothes and Bai Chuanbai's hand at the same time, and said coquettishly, "Dad, mother, Shao'er...... Peony is a little sleepy......"

As if to verify her words, as soon as she finished speaking, Bai Shao yawned, and then rubbed Wu's clothes in a daze, and whispered, "Shao'er, Shao'er wants her mother to hold ......"

Although Wu is thin, he has a lot of strength because of his perennial work.

In addition, Bai Shao was just a skinny seven-year-old girl who didn't weigh much at all, so she immediately hugged Bai Shao.

"Dad, mother, daughter-in-law sent Shao'er back to the room first." Hurriedly said to Old Man Bai and Liu, Wu held Bai Shao, Bai Wei stood aside and lifted the curtain smartly, and Bai Chuanbai followed closely with Bai Yunshi.

The family left the hall in such an orderly manner.

Left behind a table of dishes and chopsticks that had not been cleaned up, and the people next to the table with changing faces.

"The third daughter-in-law actually left like this." Liu's face was a little unsightly, "She hasn't washed the dishes yet, and Bai Wei's girl has also run away!" ”

Usually, these dishes are the work of the two of them.

"The fifth sister has just returned home, and the third daughter-in-law should care more about her." Old Man Bai sighed, and glanced at Liu a little helplessly, "Besides, you can't let the third daughter-in-law of the family do everything, there are so many people in the family, you can't eat white rice for everyone." ”

This is a bit heavy.

Qian finally stood up reluctantly and said in a low voice, "Dad, mother, daughter-in-law come and clean up." ”

After speaking, he took two steps forward, carefully stacked the empty bowls together, and put the unfinished dishes into the vegetable cook.

Because her body is indeed a little weak, Qian can't always carry a stack of empty bowls to the dishwashing basin like Wu, she can only divide the empty bowls into many portions and take them back and forth one by one.

In this way, it seems that there is a lot of work.

Liu glanced at Qian's pale, and his eyes fell on Qian's eldest daughter, "Eldest sister, your mother is tired like this, can you stand aside and watch without caring about yourself?" ”

As if he had just walked back from his thoughts, Bai Ko quickly stood up from the stool and said hurriedly, "Milk...... I'll help my mother. ”

After speaking, he took two steps forward, took the last few empty bowls from Qian's hand, and walked out of the hall.

Only then did Liu show a satisfied look.

In the yard, in front of the dishwasher.

Qian took the empty bowls from Bai Ko's hands and brushed them slowly.

Bai Ko squatted down a little reluctantly, watching the water in the dishwash gradually turn from clean to greasy, and a wave of nausea rose in his heart.

"You don't have to brush it, Chloe." Qian glanced at the hall and made sure that Liu didn't open the curtain, so he stopped the eldest daughter from washing the dishes, "You have tender hands, don't touch these dirty ones." ”

"But my grandmother ......," Bai Ko said with some hesitation, "Mother, your health is not good." ”

"I'm fine, I'm always a pair of old rough hands, no better than your careful hands," Qian glanced at Bai Ko's tender hands, and a trace of pride appeared on his face, "You don't do this rough work, my mother knows, you are different from those children." ”

As he spoke, Qian glanced at the location of the West Wing House.

That means, obviously, it means that the two white peony sisters are white.

"Today, fifth sister, something is abnormal." As soon as this was mentioned, Bai Ko's mood was obviously not very good, "I even dragged the third aunt away, and no one brushed the bowl and chopsticks, so it fell on my mother." ”

And because it fell on her mother, her mother couldn't do it, so Liu set his eyes on her and asked her to do this job.

But in fact, Bai Ko never brushed the bowl.

In the past, when the Wu family did not enter the door, Bai Ko was still young, so he naturally couldn't wash the dishes.

When Bai Ko grew up a little, the Wu family entered the door, and almost all the work of brushing dishes and cooking fell on the Wu family's head, and the other people in the other rooms were all light.

Therefore, Bai Ko should think that these dishes washing work is Wu's, and she should do it.

And now, because she didn't come to do it, the two of them had to come and wash the dishes.

For a while, Bai Ko's resentment against the Wu family rose in his heart.

Wu didn't know all this.

She was sitting on the stool next to the bed, looking at her little daughter worriedly, "Shao'er, are you okay?" ”

"I'm fine, mother." Bai Shao smiled at Wu, revealing a mouthful of snow-white and neat small teeth, which were ordinary millet grains, and they were very good-looking.

"It's okay, it's okay." Wu let out a long sigh of relief, put Bai Shao's hand into the futon, and tucked the corners of the quilt for her, then looked at her lovingly and said, "Good boy, you are also tired today, let's sleep for a while." ”

"Mother, will you go?" Bai Shao was worried that the Wu family would go back to wash the dishes, so she deliberately said, "Shao'er wants her mother to watch Shao'er sleep." ”

"Okay, well, my mother watched Shao'er sleep, and my mother didn't go anywhere." Wu suddenly laughed.

She touched Bai Shao's head, and tucked the corners of the quilt for her again and again, making sure that there was nothing missing, so she sat aside with confidence and quietly watched Bai Shao close her eyes.

Bai Wei snorted on the side and muttered, "It's really good at stirring." ”

In Shilipu, stirring means, making noise.

will stir up, that is, a person will make a fuss and will come to trouble.

Although Bai Shao closed her eyes, she still heard Bai Wei's muttering, but she didn't care, she only regarded this as Bai Wei's compliment to herself.

Moreover, she was really tired.

Really, really tired.

It didn't take long for Bai Shao to fall asleep.

Wu, who was sitting on the side, rubbed his eyes, lowered his head, and sobbed quietly.

"Mother, why are you crying again?" Bai Wei was puzzled and pulled a stool to sit beside Wu's side, and whispered, "Shao'er is asleep, don't wake her up." ”

"I know." Wu nodded, took out a handkerchief, wiped his tears, and said, "I just feel afraid, if Shao'er doesn't run out smartly, if no one helps Shao'er, if she is caught when she goes back to Shilipu alone, or if she meets a bad guy again......"

"Isn't Shao'er all back?" Although Bai Wei didn't like Bai Shao, but seeing that the Wu family was sad, she still couldn't help but persuade, "Besides, the master has promised that he will not sell anyone again, and Shao'er will not be sold again, and my brother and I will take a good look at her in the future, and nothing will happen to her." ”

"I'm scared, my mother is scared." Wu grabbed Bai Wei's arm and cried, "If something happens to Shao'er, what will happen to me, how can I explain it to others." ”

"Mother, who are you talking to?" Bai Wei was a little puzzled when she heard this, and hurriedly asked.

Wu immediately shut his mouth.

Bai Chuanbai on the side coughed twice, attracting Bai Wei's gaze, "That, Wei'er, go and see if your eldest aunt has washed the dishes, if not, take a hand." ”

Bai Wei's thoughts were immediately pulled apart, "What? Why do you want me to wash it? ”

Bai Wei was very angry.

In the past, she worked for the Wu family, and she couldn't bear to watch the Wu family suffer alone, so she took the initiative to help share it, which doesn't mean that she likes to do those jobs.

Now, it's so easy to not do a job for the Wu family, why does she still have to help, why.

"Your eldest aunt is not in good health...... Bai Chuanbai frowned and looked at Bai Wei, "What's wrong with you going to help." ”

"You ......" Bai Wei was so angry that he couldn't speak, "I won't go, the eldest aunt also has a daughter, her daughter will help her, she doesn't need me." ”

"Wei'er." Bai Chuanbai's face sank a little, "Be obedient, go quickly." ”

"Forget it." Wu Shi saw that Bai Wei's eyes were a little red, and he couldn't help but persuade, "Daddy, Wei'er and her aunt...... It's not too intimate, she doesn't want to go, so she won't go. ”

Bai Chuanbai sighed, and saw that Bai Wei no longer continued to ask the Wu family what he had just said, so he didn't force Bai Wei to help the Qian family anymore.

In the west room, there was complete silence.
