Chapter 70: Raising other people’s son
Mrs . Zhang almost coughs up blood, how did she marry such a man?
Old Lady Bai’s cold eyes, once again swept to Mrs . Zhang’s face: “You old wench, now that your no longer a woman from the mountain, you dared to shout separation? Did we treat you badly? Didn’t we give you enough food and clothes?”
Mrs . Zhang also tried to calculate, so she frankly said: “I’m not talking about foods and clothes . I am talking about Xiaofeng, first sister-in-law’s son . Xiaofeng can go to school . But, my son who was also a member of the family and at the same age cannot? So why do our family need to keep working hard to support Bai Xiaofeng studies?”
Mrs . Liu busily said: “Sister-in-law, you shouldn’t speak like a stranger . Xiaofeng is your’s and second brother-in-law’s nephew . In the future, when Xiaofeng become a big official, our family can enjoy the blessing . You and second brother-in-law, will be able to enjoy it too, right?”
Others don’t know Bai Xiaofeng’s true character, but Mrs . Zhang has clear eyes, so why she wouldn’t know? For someone like Bai Xiaofeng, who knows if he can pa.s.sed the official test . However, even if he became a big official, will he help a poor relative like her or Bai Erzhu? Mrs . Zhang will not believe it .
“I don’t expect any blessings . All I want now is to separate . I, Zhenzhu and Fugui can grow vegetables to eat . We don’t want to work and raise other people’s son anymore . ”
Old Lady Bai felt distressed for Bai Xiaofeng . Especially, when she heard Mrs . Zhang said other people’s son . Her heart couldn’t help but feel in pain, so she pointed her finger to Mrs . Zhang: “Zhang Shumei, you are now really capable, you can manage the family’s business now ah . But since when did you have the right to speak? Separation is not something for you to decide . You only have to do your part, you shouldn’t control other things . ”
After the old lady finished, she turned to Mrs . Liu and said: “What are you still doing here? Aren’t you going to do your business yet?”
Mrs . Liu returned to her senses and rushed outside to go .
Old Lady Bai angrily looked back at Mrs . Zhang, then turned around and went inside the house .
Mrs . Zhang was so angry, she wanted to vent her anger to Bai Erzhu, but Bai Erzhu ran away .
Mrs . Zhang didn’t even try to dry their newly washed clothes . She packed up a few clothes and pulled Bai Zhenzhu outside the house .
“Niang, where are you going to take me?” Although Bai Zhenzhu didn’t go outside the house, she clearly heard the quarrel outside .
“I can no longer stay in this house . You and I will stay at your uncle’s house for a few days . ”
Bai Zhenzhu was reluctant, but her mother dragged her away . She doesn’t want to beat in front of the villagers, so she has no choice but to go to the neighboring village .
Old Lady Bai didn’t know that her second daughter-in-law and granddaughter went away . She waited for Mrs . Zhang to call her to eat . But, when her stomach started rumbling, she looked for Mrs . Zhang, but she didn’t see even her shadow . Even Bai Zhenzhu was gone .
Old Lady Bai was so angry, her mouth kept swearing and swearing . Her face looked very angry . How will she eat? Cook for herself? Zhao Lan and Bai Zhi were outside . Mrs . Liu went to Bai yang Village . Mrs . Zhang ran away . All the people who do the housework was gone, she was left all alone .
Bai Zhi and Zhao Lan were on their way to Hu Changlin’s house when they encountered Old Zhao’s ox cart on the road . Old Zhao regularly pulling this ox cart of him and make a trip to the town . Other villager’s who wanted to go to the town also rent his ox cart in advance for 5 copper coins .
So at this time, the person who was sitting in the ox cart was Doctor Lu .
When Bai Zhi saw Doctor Lu, her eyes lit up . She suddenly had an idea, and so she stopped the ox cart .
