Chapter 28 Tian Xiuniang Envies Su Jiuyue
Tian Xiuniang seemed to say intentionally, "That girl liked Xiyuan very much at that time. She would come to our house when she saw Xiyuan is back."
Su Jiuyue pursed her lips and paused. Suddenly, she interrupted Xiuniang, "I have something to do. I should go back first."
Tian Xiuniang rolled her eyes at her and snorted.
Since her mother-in-law gave her a hard time, then she wouldn't let Jiuyue feel good!
Tian Xiuniang didn't know why Liu Cuihua sent meat to the neighbors. Wasn't it good to keep the meat to the family? The thought of losing so much meat made her feel distressed as if that was her meat.
Su Jiuyue quickened her pace for fear that Tian Xiuniang would say something that made her uncomfortable.
She hurried into the kitchen. Liu Cuihua was afraid that her daughters-in-law would ruin the meat, so she did everything by herself.
She sent out ten kilograms of meat, and the rest was enough for their family to eat for a long time. She pickled the meat, smoked it, and hung it up. It should be enough to support them through the new year.
Seeing that Su Jiuyue came back with bowls with a gloomy look, Liu Cuihua asked, "What's the matter? Who bullied my Jiuya?"
Su Jiuyue shook her head and rolled up her sleeves to wash the bowls.
Liu Cuihua pointed to the back pot, "You may wash it with hot water. If it's cold now. Pay attention to not getting cold."
Before Su Jiuyue finished washing the bowls, Wu Xiyuan ran in with two grasshoppers in his hand, saying, "Mom, dear, look at the grasshoppers I caught!"
Su Jiuyue also caught grasshoppers before. At this time in previous years, she would take her brothers and sisters to catch grasshoppers in the field and bake them with fire. Anyway, the grasshoppers will die when the autumn was over.
Liu Cuihua praised him, but Wu Xiyuan was not satisfied. He held a grasshopper to Su Jiuyue and said, "Dear, how about I baked it for you?"
Su Jiuyue was still angry. She didn't want to talk to him and turned her back to him.
Wu Xiyuan didn't know that she was angry. He smiled and took her hand, saying, "let's go! It's delicious!"
Liu Cuihua thought Su Jiuyue was shy, so she joked, "Well, Xiyuan only has his wife in his mind. He forgets his Mom when he gets married and only gives delicious food to his wife."
Su Jiuyue was a bit embarrassed and said, "Mom..."
Liu Cuihua took a handkerchief to wipe her hands and drove her out. "Go and have fun. By the way, call your second sister-in-law here."
Haring that, Wu Xiyuan took Jiuyue's arm and ran outside.
When he saw Tian Xiuniang in the yard, he shouted, "Xiuniang, Mom asks for you!"
Tian Xiuniang was picking vegetables in the yard. When she heard that, she muttered unhappily and went into the house.
When she saw Su Jiuyue and Wu Xiyuan holding hands, she raised her eyebrows and gave Jiuyue a knowing look before she turned to the kitchen.
Su Jiuyue felt so upset. She was young, but she was not a fool. Tian Xiuniang wanted to sow discord between them.
She had just come to the Wu family. Those who she could rely on were Wu Xiyuan and her mother-in-law. If she argued with them, Tian Xiuniang's tricks would succeed.
Her mother-in-law was right. Although they lived in the same family, some only cared about their own interests.
