“This is my mother…”
Di Yelei looked hesitant and struggled.
“Your mother? Oh, I see. Should we go out and see?”
Liu Sisi understood. Di Yelei’s birth mother had died when he was born, so the current mother must be his stepmother. No wonder she was being cursed at so harshly.
“I’ll go out and have a look. If it takes too long, she might force her way in. You stay here and cook, and by the way, clean up this at.”
Di Yelei’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and he seed quite helpless. He seed to want to say sothing more, but ultimately didn’t, and walked out of the kitchen.
Di Xuan, who had been playing with a fire poker over the stove, suddenly stood up and followed Di Yelei out.
On the contrary, the previously joyful Di Ying suddenly pounced into Liu Sisi’s arms, nervously whispering, “Mom, it’s Grandma who’s co. She must have co to snatch our at. Every ti Dad cos back from hunting, she cos to our door like this…”
Liu Sisi suddenly understood the key to the situation.
Well!
It turned out that there were too many freeloaders in this broken family!
No wonder, even if this family was dragging along two children, it shouldn’t be in such a state of disrepair that it could only be described as a ss. It turned out that the money they earned went into other people’s pockets, which was not surprising!
Liu Sisi’s gaze turned to the ga on the ground that she was tidying up, and she imdiately made a plan in her heart.
Outside, Di Yelei opened the kitchen door and walked out. In the courtyard, Ms. Zhao was cursing enthusiastically.
Of the three sons left by the previous Ms. Fan, her least favorite was naturally Di Yelei. But sohow, this least favored third son managed to have a knack for hunting. Originally, he had married a bride with baggage, and she thought she had fulfilled her duty as a stepmother. But unexpectedly, this new wife would go up the hill to chop firewood when Di Yelei was not back from hunting. She accidentally fell from the hill, killing herself and her unborn child, and it cost a lot of silver to save her!
Every ti she thought of this, her heart bled, because it was all about money! She imdiately continued cursing, but then she saw the figure she always found disgusting.
“You’ve been hiding in there for so long, pretending to be dead, huh? You think that now that you’ve grown up and set up your own separate household, you don’t have to keep as your foster mother in your heart anymore? Rember, I raised you from birth, taking care of you every step of the way from cleaning up your poop and pee…”
Ms. Zhao’s cursing was relentless, without pausing for breath, and she pointed at Di Yelei’s forehead and let out a tirade of insults.
Di Yelei stood still in the sa place, not uttering a word from beginning to end.
It wasn’t until Ms. Zhao was tired of swearing that he finally spoke: “I heard you went into the mountains today? Did you catch any ga? Your father said he didn’t have an appetite and just wanted to have so ga soup. I know you don’t care about , your foster mother, but he’s still your own father, after all. You wouldn’t treat yourself to delicious food while letting your own father eat leftovers, would you?”
She was putting pressure on him with filial piety! Liu Sisi, hiding behind the kitchen door, was also annoyed.
This family was barely surviving on leftovers, yet so people still free-load! And not just once or twice! No wonder the family was so poor!
However, the other party actually used filial piety to pressure him, so it’s no wonder he had no choice but to back down!
After a long silence, Di Yelei’s deep voice ca, “Mom, it’s not that Yelei isn’t willing to give, but today, Yelei didn’t get much ga. Sisi just got married and caught a cold, and I was planning to use this ti to replenish her.”
“Replenish? Replenish what? This shaless rat is better off being sold to a brothel, at least then you could recover the ten taels of silver for the dowry! Replenishing her, she doesn’t even know if she deserves such good fortune!”
Zhao’s mouth didn’t have any kindness, mocking and sarcastic.
“Mom, Sisi is a good person, you can’t talk about her like that.”
Di Yelei, who has always played the victim, could not stand it anymore and retorted.
“Oh, that’s great! He really forgot about his parents after getting a wife!”
This statent imdiately angered Zhao, who began to play the victim, “Oh! Everyone, co and see! He got a wife and doesn’t even want his own dad anymore! How are we supposed to live with them! A tiny child, I’ve been picking up after him until now, and this is how I’m treated…”
“Enough! I’ll give it to you! Isn’t it enough that I’m giving you ga?!”
Di Yelei angrily shouted, pushing open the door and walking straight into the kitchen, only to be t by Liu Sisi’s big watery eyes, causing him to freeze in place.
His lips moved, but in the end, he didn’t say anything. With large strides, he moved towards the stove, picked up the half-skinned roe deer, and turned to walk towards the doorway.
Liu Sisi didn’t call out to him. She just tightly hugged YingEr in her arms, motionless. After a short while, Di Yelei’s deep voice was heard.
“Here! Today I only hunted around nearby and got only this one roe deer. You ca before I could finish skinning it. Take it and make so soup for dad!”
Accepting the roe deer, Ms. Zhao briefly looked at it. The deer weighed about 8 catties, quite fat!
“Only one? Are you trying to screw ? You only hunted one deer after entering the mountains…”
Ms. Zhao raised her voice, trying to get more out of Di Yelei. She also looked further inside, and apart from the deer skin on the ground, there was nothing left in the kitchen.
Di Yelei was also sowhat angry but dared not vent his anger on Ms. Zhao. However, his words beca harsher.
“Sisi has been sick in bed, and there are two young children in the family that need attention. Even if I, Di Yelei, am more capable, I’ve only been out for four hours. How much am I able to hunt? Are you going to make pay with my life if I can’t provide enough?”
“Watch your mouth when you talk!”
Ms. Zhao knew when to take a step back, but she wasn’t going to let Di Yelei get carried away either: “Get it straight! This ga is for your father to eat! The bad guy has beco , not who wants to eat it! I raised you from birth, is this how you repay ? Let tell you Di Yelei, you need to have a conscience…”
After another burst of rapid-fire words, Di Yelei couldn’t even raise his head. It was only then that Ms. Zhao finally walked away victoriously, holding the fat roe deer.
Di Yelei’s face was full of frustration. He had promised to cook for Sisi to restore her health, but his mont of weakness had led him to give it away. What was he to do?
