Chapter 157: Digging wild vegetables
Mrs . Liu hurriedly waved her hands: “Niang, don’t you know the situation in my family? How am I going to open this mouth of mine to borrow from them? They might even come and borrow to us instead . ”
When Mrs . Zhang sees that there was no hope to separate from the Bai Family, she tried her best to suppressed this thought first . This matter needs to be carefully thought . Nothing in this life was easy, but she was not afraid to face it . Bai Zhi and Zhao Lan successfully separated from this rotten family . Sooner or later, she, Zhang Shumei will also succeed .
Old Lady Bai stared at Mrs . Liu’s eyes and secretly cursed her for saying useless things .
Now, more than dozen’s of eyes stared at her, waiting for her to make a decision .
There was no rice and no oil in the house . She must find a way to get some rice, either she will borrow or buy it .
Old Lady Bai felt so bad just by thinking to spend the little coins left in her small box . Those coins will not be enough even if she added them all . Also, it took her a long time to save those coins, so now that she needs to take them out . She felt like her flesh was being cut off .
In the end, Old Lady Bai waved her hand, then said: “If we don’t have rice, can’t we live? You just have to dig more wild vegetables . Eating wild vegetables is just the same, it’s not like we haven’t tried it . ”
Mrs . Zhang doesn’t care . Anyway, everyone’s situation was the same, no one eats better than the other .
Bai Xiaofeng sighed and turned to go to the backyard . He had to go to study . He had to go to practice writing . He must pass the exam and become a big official . Only by then, he can get rid of this poverty and maddening life .
Bai Dabao also wanted to slip away, but he was stopped by Mrs . Zhang: “Dabao, where are you going?”
Seeing her son was being embarrassed, Mrs . Liu immediately helped: “Why does it matter to you where Dabao is going? Don’t you have your own son? Why do you care about other people’s son?”
Mrs . Zhang coldly sneered and said: “Who cares about who? I’m telling you, from today’s onward, no matter what you do, our family doesn’t care . Don’t think like things were still the same as before . That you can just lazying around . There is no such cheap thing in this world . In the past, there was Zhao Lan, who work like a horse for this family, but now, she’s gone . There’s no one you can just casually order around . ”
Mrs . Liu put her hand on her waist and ready herself to go to war, but Old Lady Bai interrupted her: “If you continue this argument, it is estimated that we will not eat for a day . If you have so much energy, go and dig up wild vegetables . Stop quarreling, and just go now . ”
Bai Dazhu busily opened his mouth: “I can’t move my arms, I can’t go . ”
Bai Dabao grabbed his stomach and shouted that he’s having a stomachache . Then, he ran towards the latrine .
Mrs . Liu quickly rushed to her husband’s side and said: “I need to take care of my husband . ”
Old Lady Bai’s eyes once again fell to Mrs . Zhang and said: “It’s only you who is available . Your family are all healthy, unlike them, they are all sick . ”
Mrs . Zhang’s sneered, Bai Erzhu shivered in anger, and Bai Fugui also got angry . It’s very obvious that these people were bullying them .
Mrs . Zhang opened her mouth and said: “Well then, our family will go . We will dig wild vegetables, but I cannot guarantee that there will be a good result . Just wait for us for a while . ”
After that, Mrs . Zhang gave Bai Erzhu and Bai Zhenzhu a meaningful look . Then, their whole family left .
Old Lady Bai felt something wrong inside her heart . The look in Mrs . Zhang’s eyes was weird, so she followed them a few steps and said: “Erzhu, come back home soon, your niang is very hungry . ”
Bai Erzhu didn’t reply, he didn’t even turn around to look . He just walked in a hurry to catch up with his wife . Then, asked: “Wife, are we really going to dig wild vegetables for elder brother’s family?”
