After waiting for a while and seeing that no one was calling her to eat dinner from the kitchen, she shamelessly entered the kitchen, afraid that all the fish and meat would be eaten.
She saw four people sitting at the table, occupying each side, with the fried fish and meat bowl already half-gone. She immediately got angry, âYou eat without calling meâ¦â
Since no one served her rice, she took the initiative to grab a bowl and chopsticks from the stove cabinet and serve herself.
Xiao Yuchuan said unhappily, âWho allowed you to eat?â
Xiao Ailiuâs hand, holding the bowl and chopsticks, stiffened, âThird Brother, Iâ¦â
âThis house, even if it was left by Father and Mother, you used to have a share.â Xiao Yuchuan coldly hummed, âYou sold the three acres of farmland that Second Brother and I earned, and got forty-five taels. The whole homestead is only worth more than twenty taels. You took so much dowry, that should be considered as giving up your share of the house; you lost your share of the house long ago!â
âWho said that?â Xiao Ailiu disagreed, âThe dowry was given by you and Second Brother voluntarily. The house is a separate matter!â
She would never admit that she had no share in the house, or she would get kicked out again.
âGet out!â Xiao Yuchuan angrily put down his chopsticks.
Xiao Yishan did not agree, âThird Brother, itâs fine to let her eat a meal, just stop arguing, so the villagers wonât come over to watch the drama later.â
âSecond Brother is reasonable.â Xiao Ailiu held her rice bowl and wanted to get some vegetables, but Xiao Yuchuan pushed her hand away, âYou have no share!â
âYouâ¦â Xiao Ailiu looked at the fragrant stir-fried meat and fried fish on the table, already drooling with hunger, âLet me eat some, Iâm really hungryâ¦â
Xiao Yuchuan simply divided the remaining half-bowl of fried fish and stir-fried meat among Second Brother, Fourth Brother, his wife, and himself.
Of course, his wifeâs bowl had the most, âWife, you eat more.â
Only the half-eaten bowl of stir-fried vegetables was left on the table.
Her husbandâs family was not poor, but they only ate meat occasionally. She was tired of eating vegetables every day and quickly ate the white rice in her bowl.
The white rice was refined rice; although her family often ate refined rice, they also occasionally ate brown rice.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
As soon as she entered the village, she heard that the Xiao Family had bought food for half a year.
It must all be piled up in the storage room.
When she arrived at the Xiao house in the afternoon, no one gave her a good facial expression, so she sat down without daring to enter the storage room.
After Su Qingyue finished eating, she poured the medicine from the medicine stove into a bowl and let it cool on the stove.
Xiao Ailiu glanced at the black and mushy medicine bowl, âWhat is this?â
Su Qingyue ignored her and just said to Xiao Yuchuan, âThird Brother, drink it when itâs a little cooler, donât waste a single drop.â
âThat expensive medicine will definitely not be wasted.â Xiao Yuchuan was particularly distressed about the medicine money.
Xiao Ailiu asked, âHow expensive?â
âSeventy taels, do you think itâs expensive or not?â Chuan asked.
âWhat!â Xiao Ailiu was so surprised that she almost couldnât hold the rice bowl in her hand, âHow can it cost seventy taels? Seventy taels, Iâd rather not buy it!â
Xiao Yuchuan looked angry upon hearing her, but he didnât say anything.
After all, the medicine money was really too expensive.
Xiao Yishan said solemnly, âBig Sister, donât talk nonsense. Chuan is poisoned, and the detoxification medicine is expensive by nature. Thereâs no other way. Once his poison is detoxified, he wonât faint so easily in the future.â
âOh, I hope Third Brother gets better.â Actually, she wasnât that concerned, she just came back to get money and was heartbroken that after spending three hundred taels on the horse, she lost another seventy taelsâ¦
Itâs probably only two hundred and a few taels leftâ¦
