Zhao Sue put down the bowl of porridge in her hand, walked in front of Old Lady Bai and Mrs. Liu, then said: “Aunt Lan is sick, she needs to rest. Please leave.”
Old lady Bai’s eyes fell on the bowl of thick porridge. Remembering that she only drank rice soup this morning, her stomach immediately grumbled. Old Lady Bai ignored Zhao Sue and took a step forward to get the porridge, but who would have thought that Mrs. Liu will rush over to get the bowl first. She grabbed the spoon, scooped a big spoon of porridge and put it into her mouth: “She doesn’t want to eat, then I’ll eat it. I don’t dislike it.”
Old Lady Bai frowned. Does this woman still put her as her mother-in-law in her eyes? This was supposed to be her food.
Old Lady Bai coughed twice, but Mrs. Liu pretended like she didn’t hear anything. Who get it first, should eat. At this moment, if she tried to be courteous, she will only suffer. She was not stupid.
Seeing the porridge in the bowl was almost gone, Old Lady Bai didn’t give Mrs. Liu a face, she rushed forward and took the bowl from Mrs. Liu’s hand: “Well, Liu Guihua, you are really capable!”Mrs. Liu pretended like she didn’t understand the old lady’s meaning, she smiled and said: “Niang, you want to eat too? You should have said it earlier so that I should have left more.”
Only one spoon of porridge was left in the bowl. Old Lady Bai was angry, but she couldn’t do anything else. She could only swallow her anger and eat the remaining porridge in the bowl.
Zhou Awu couldn’t figure it out. How could such good people like Zhao Lan and Bai Zhi live with such kind of people in the past? One could imagine how much suffering they’ve eaten under the hands of these two women.
Zhou Awu said in a deep voice: “Go away after eating.”
Mrs. Liu lifted her sleeve and wiped her mouth, then said: “Go away? Why should we go? Who do you think you are? I’m telling you, it’s you who should leave. We and Zhao Lan are families, so now that she is sick, we should naturally take care of her. You outsiders better leave as soon as possible.”
This seemed to be the funniest joke Zhou Awu had ever heard: “This is your purpose of coming today? To chase us away? Who do you think you are?” He took two steps forward. As his tall body approached Mrs. Liu, an invincible pressure suppressed her momentum, making her almost breathless. Mrs. Liu busily took two steps away and then she felt a bit better.
Mrs. Liu put her hand on her waist and said: “What do you want to do? You want to beat people? I’m telling you, this is Huangtuo Village, an outsider like you shouldn’t act arrogant in front of me. Do you believe that if I tried to shout and call for help, the whole village will immediately come to help and beat you?”Zhou Awu naturally doesn’t believe it. For people like Mrs. Liu, why would a normal person in this village help her? Unless that person has an abnormal brain or crooked mind.
Zhou Awu sneered: “I don’t believe it, would you like to go out and scream now?”
Mrs. Liu only casually said those ruthless words. She didn’t expect him to act so toughly, forcing her to look at the old lady and ask for help.
Old Lady Bai was very dissatisfied with Mrs. Liu now. She kept thinking about the food she had just eaten. She naturally has no intention to save her face. But after all, they came here together, so she has to help her.
“Zhou Awu, you shouldn’t play rough in front of us. I will not eat this set. If you have the ability, you do it. Aren’t you powerful? Beat us with one fell swoop, come on!” Old Lady Bai has played so many tricks in her life, so how could this younger generation compete with her?
