"I don't even have a smile for you?" Ms. Liu asked unconvincingly.

Li Shi gave her a blank look: "Why did I lie to you about this? What benefits do I get?"

"It's hard to explain..." Mrs. Liu muttered, "Everyone knows that you have a good relationship with your mother. You are afraid that we will compete with you for your favor, and you wish we would fall out with you..."

Li was speechless: "Since you don't believe it, why are you still asking me? Second sister-in-law, I'm not talking about you. Do you think you did a good job in the quarrel with the fifth younger brother and sister today? You don't have any brains at all. You don't care about this matter.

Whether it works or not, you should ask mother what she wants, why are you so anxious?"

"What do you mean I'm anxious?" Ms. Liu became unhappy when she heard this, "Am I the only one who is anxious? Dare you say that? Didn't I mean that I said what you all wanted to say? Co-author, I stood up for you.

, now you still blame me?"

Mrs. Liu saw that the two of them were almost quarreling and said anxiously: "Stop quarreling, mother is not happy to begin with, and your quarrel makes mother even more unhappy..."

Well, when I heard that Ye Yuran would be even more unhappy, the two of them really couldn't stop arguing.

At this critical moment, no one dares to continue to touch the bad luck of "Ye Yuran".

The Zhu family's breakfast today was a little later than usual.

Even with the help of Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu would not be able to make up for the shortened time. The amount of ingredients was also determined in advance.

Therefore, everyone found that there seemed to be a little less "rice" in their bowls.

Looking at the small low table next to the table, the four people sitting on it knew what was going on.

Ye Yuran had a cold face, as if she hadn't seen anything. After sharing the food with the people at the head table, she soaked the rest of the rice in hot water and sent Mrs. Lin to carry it over.

Mrs. Lin, who was supposed to sit with the Zhu family, also became a member of the low table.

She also didn't expect that this time her mother-in-law went so "excessive" that she even admitted that she wanted to "raise" her, and ended up kicking her off the dining table.

Not only that, a small table was specially set up for her to sit with Lu Daya, Lu Erya, and Lu Sanya, making it clear to everyone that these three girls were not welcome in this family.

"Mom..." Mrs. Lin called out in supplication when she came over to bring the rice.

Ye Yuran didn't pay attention.

Lin looked at the others.

Zhu Wu had a dark face, obviously he didn't want to see his wife at this time.

Mrs. Lin remembered that in private, he occasionally touched her, and she didn't dare to say anything, so she could only turn to Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Li's two sisters-in-law.

Mr. Liu was skipped directly, after all, they had just had a "quarrel".

She thought she had a good relationship with her eldest sister-in-law and fourth sister-in-law, and would give her some face, but she found that the two men had their heads lowered and did not look at her at all.

——Sure enough, any good relationship is a lie!

She was extremely disappointed.

Seeing this, Lin Sanmei and Lin Simei were so anxious that they were about to speak, but were held down by Zhu Bamei.

She shook her head at the two of them and mouthed: "Don't make my mother angry."

Lin Sanmei and Lin Simei opened their mouths but did not dare to speak.

Because they know that they were originally "relying on others", but Aunt Zhu was polite to them before, but now...

If they really made Aunt Zhu angry, they would drive them away without even a second thought, and they would have no legitimate reason to stay.

Considering the long term, I could only endure it and gave Lin an apologetic look.

Mrs. Lin naturally knew that at this time, her two sisters must not challenge the authority of their mother-in-law, otherwise they would only add fuel to the fire. She could only carry the soaked rice bowl back to the small table in frustration.

Silently divide them among Lu Daya, Lu Erya and Lu Sanya.

This was the first meal Lu Daya, Lu Erya, and Lu Sanya had in the Zhu family, and it was unforgettable.

How to say?

It is certainly impossible to say that they dislike poor food. When they were at the Lu family, they didn't even have this, and the porridge was so thin that you could see the bottom of the bowl.

Although this is rice soaked in hot water, the rice is at least one grain at a time. At first glance, there are a lot of rice. It is completely different from heaven and earth. There is no way to compare.

There was also a large plate and a soup bowl placed on the small low table in front of her. It was obviously the "portion" that Lin was supposed to have, and now she wanted to share it with the three of them.

They are both happy and sad.

Happiness comes from being able to eat such a good meal for the first time.

It’s sad because—the second aunt’s downgraded breakfast is actually better than what they had at Lu’s house?!

Of course, when they saw their second aunt being "punished" by the Zhu family because of them, they felt somewhat guilty.

——If it weren't for us, my second aunt wouldn't...

——I’m sorry, Second Aunt, we just don’t want to go hungry.

——Second aunt, we will definitely repay you in the future, thank you.

This scene made them realize once again how much "sacrifice" Lin had made for them. And this "sacrifice" also made them cherish it.

Even their parents could abandon them and not want them, but the second aunt did this for them.

In the future, when they grow up, they will definitely "repay" their second aunt.

It has been a long time since Ye Yuran traveled to the Zhu family, and this was also the first particularly "quiet" breakfast.

No matter how difficult it is, everyone will talk and laugh, full of hope, and talk about what they have done recently and what they will do next.

But today, Ye Yuran was in a bad mood, and no one dared to speak for fear of being "disastered".

After eating, Ye Yuran asked Mrs. Li to report in front of everyone how much breakfast Mrs. Lin's three nieces had.

When Ms. Li reported that value, Ms. Lin wanted to dig a hole and bury herself.

"You should also keep an account yourself and have an idea in your mind, so that if time goes by, you will think that we have overcalculated on purpose." Ye Yuran said, "We don't take advantage of you either. We will charge you whatever money others sell.

How much money you have will be settled by my brothers."

"Yes, mother." Mrs. Lin lowered her head, her eyes were red, and she didn't dare to respond.

"Since you have eaten from the Zhu family, you have to work for the Zhu family. The Zhu family does not support freeloaders." On the spot, Ye Yuran assigned jobs to Lin's three nieces.

The three little girls, the eldest of whom is already as high as a person's waist, have long been able to work in the fields, wash dishes, sweep the floor, etc., no problem at all.

There are many people in the Zhu family, so naturally there are many bowls. When clearing the table and washing dishes, Liu, Liu, Li and Lin usually work together when they are busy. Otherwise, they have to be busy for a long time.

Now they are all left to Lu Daya, Lu Erya, and Lu Sanya. They can relax for a while and do something else.

However, they didn't completely "abuse" her. Knowing that it was their first time and not knowing the Zhu family's situation, they gave some pointers and told them what they should do.

Of course, they were all said behind Ye Yuran's back.

After completing the day's work, Ye Yuran left the old house and returned to the new yard.

Old man Zhu followed her and entered the house together.

"Aren't you going to the ground today?" Ye Yuran asked when she saw him coming in.
