Saliva sprayed her face, emitting a faint fishy stench.
Sun Lixia endured the nausea and wiped her face, then sheepishly explained, "Mom, you've misunderstood, I didn't an that."
"I don't care what you ant, if you dare curse my son again, I'll skin you!" Zhang Guihua glared and threatened viciously.
Even if Eldest was the worst, he was still born from her womb, and she would fight to the death with anyone who wanted to harm him!
Sun Lixia's scalp tightened at once, and she nodded hastily, "I will never speak out of turn again."
She had simply been too angry earlier, forgetting that the last thing parents can accept is outliving their children.
The old lady snorted coldly, then turned to her two grandsons with a pleasant face, "Co, Granny gives you at to eat."

On the other side, just as Jiang Mianmian and her father reached the door, Su Wanyu opened it eagerly, "You're finally back, I've been starving."
She had applied cold cream on her face and didn't dare to go out, fearing that her mother-in-law would sll it, so she had been waiting at the door.
Zhaodi, who had been peeking out the window, also got down from the chair and whispered, "Eldest sister, second sister, Uncle didn't give any at to the eldest brother and second brother."
Er Ya's eyes sparkled, "That's because Uncle likes Mianmian the most."
Despite not getting to eat the roasted snake at, for so reason, the girls felt a pang of happiness in their hearts.
Only years later would they understand that it was because at that mont, they were treated equally, regardless of gender.
Laosan's wife sighed quietly to herself, even if Eldest didn't give them any at, the old lady would have.
The neighboring Laosan hadn't gone outside either, not because he was as shy as the second family and too embarrassed, but because he knew that Eldest was possessive about food and it would have been in vain to go.
As long as his two sons had enough to eat, that was fine.
After Jiang Mianmian's family of three had finished eating the roasted snake at, they lay on the bed with satisfied smiles on their faces.
As she was drifting into a sleepy haze, a voice from the system inside her head reminded her, "Host, you haven't completed your task for today."
Jiang Mianmian could only gather her energy reluctantly and began to recite poetry listlessly, "Liangzhou Verse, by Wang Han, grapes and wine under a lamp's glow..."
If she fell asleep without completing her daily learning tasks, the system would keep playing a soprano version of Three Hundred Tang Poems in her head, making it impossible to get any sleep.
Luckily, it was only early education, and the daily tasks were straightforward, just morize one poem and answer three simple knowledge questions.
Having recited the poem, Jiang Mianmian yawned and said, "Give the questions."
System: "First question, why do we see lightning before we hear thunder?"
Jiang Mianmian: "Because light travels through air faster than sound."
System: "Correct. Second question, what does the moon orbit around, and how long does one orbit last?"
Jiang Mianmian: "The Earth, 24 hours."
System: "Correct. Third question, what are the three components of sunlight?"
Jiang Mianmian: "Visible light, ultraviolet light, and infrared light."
System: "Correct. Three minutes of thermal imaging usage ti have been credited, accumulating a total of 37 minutes of usage."
"Once I start making money, you'll be completely useless," Jiang Mianmian huffed.
This scheming system, knowing she needed the thermal imaging to find food, was stingily controlling the usage ti.
The system solemnly retorted, "Host, you are mistaken. Once you truly appreciate the wonders of learning, you'll realize that this system is a priceless treasure."
