Chapter 189 Intensified
"I still can't change my words, so just let me call you mom! Mom, sit down quickly!" Gangzi helped Bai Xianglan sit down very attentively.
"Daughter-in-law, this is my mother and my sister-in-law! I told you!" Gangzi introduced the bride who was still crying while sitting on the kang.
But the bride ignored everyone and continued to cry.
"Mom, don't mind. She's in a bad mood today. She's crying about the bedding thing!" Gangzi explained a little embarrassedly.
Bai Xianglan only nodded and said nothing more.
Lin Xue stood beside her and quietly gave her five yuan in her hand.
At first Bai Xianglan didn't want it, but when someone saw it, she took it anyway.
Lin Xue winked at her, telling her to give it to Uncle Gangzi.
Bai Xianglan inexplicably listened to her granddaughter's words, so she followed her wishes and gave Gangzi five yuan.
"Mom, you can keep this money and spend it yourself! I don't want it!" For the first time, Gangzi said he didn't want the money given by Bai Xianglan.
In the past, people were always rushing to get it, and they would lose their temper if they didn’t.
But when Gangzi said he didn't want any money, the bride on the kang began to cry even louder. Lin Xue clearly saw that the five yuan had never left the corner of her eye.
"Take it! I have to go back to babysit the children for your sister-in-law, so I won't stay for dinner! My sister-in-law has no other abilities. These five dollars are all she can do! You must live a good life in the future!"
After saying that, she stood up. The bride didn't want to talk to her, so she stopped rushing, took her granddaughter's hand and walked out.
The bride's cries got louder in the room, and outside, the old lady's scolding also reached a fever pitch.
"You white-eyed wolves! What's the point of raising you so big? In the end, it's all in vain? Get out of here, get out of here!"
At the end of the scolding, the two daughters who came to bring things were also kicked out.
"Mom, my eldest brother is getting married today, so stop being a monster! Didn't the eldest and second sisters also bring things as you asked? If you drive them away like this, they won't even be able to hold their heads up when they return to their in-laws' house!" Bai Dahe
I couldn't bear it anymore and ran out to break up the fight.
The pain was not in vain after all these years. Mrs. Bai still listened to what Bai Dahe said.
Old Bai Tou didn't even come out to stop her in the west room. Bai Dahe's words really worked, and Old Bai's wife turned off the flames and stopped cursing.
"Hmph, I don't think I'll have the nerve to stay here for dinner if I don't bring anything with me!" After saying this, he went into the house.
Soon, the crying in the room stopped.
The reason is that the old lady shouted loudly as soon as she entered the door.
"Stop howling. The bedding is originally the dowry that the woman should bring. You, a second-married man, asked for twenty yuan as a dowry and didn't even bring it with you. You still have the nerve to cry!"
Just like that, Bai Xianglan and Lin Xue came out, the noise stopped, and Li Guihua started cooking.
When Lin Xue came out, she saw Bai Xiaomei and his wife standing outside. Xiangyang Commune is quite far away from here. They both got up before dawn and walked here. They didn't even eat breakfast. Now they have to walk three days to go back.
It takes about an hour, but it will be very tiring for the two of them.
I didn’t have much food to eat at home, and I didn’t have much energy. Plus I hadn’t eaten in the morning and I had to walk back. It would be weird if I didn’t faint on the way.
"Sister-in-law! Come home with me!" Lin Xue stepped forward and grabbed her before leaving without giving her a chance to react.
Bai Xiaomei was dragged for a while before she realized what she was doing.
"Xiaoxue, where are you going?" she asked hurriedly, then looked back and was relieved to see her man following her.
"Go to my house! Are you going to get scolded here? Didn't you hear that they are not even going to give you food?" Lin Xue said angrily.
This sister-in-law is too weak in character and doesn't know how to adapt or please her mother. Instead, she was pushed against by her mother and two older sisters and she couldn't say anything.
"But..." Bai Xiaomei hesitated, not knowing how to speak.
"Don't worry! There's no shortage of food for you at home! Don't worry and come with me!"
Bai Xiaomei said nothing and followed Lin Xue, not forgetting to look back to see if the man was following.
"Uncle! Let's go faster! I'm afraid you won't be able to keep up!" Lin Xue said jokingly, making the atmosphere more relaxed.
The group of four returned home. Wang Cuihua saw her mother-in-law and daughter coming back so quickly. She also saw her former sister-in-law, who could still be considered a sister-in-law now. The couple followed them over and hurriedly went to greet people.
"Little sister, brother-in-law, you sit down first! Sister-in-law will make you some sweet water!" After saying that, he went out without waiting for Bai Xiaomei to refuse.
Wang Cuihua behaves more and more like a daughter, and her profits are decisive again.
Soon, two bowls of sugar water were delivered.
The two people who hadn't eaten since getting up early in the morning were very hungry, so they stopped being polite and picked up their bowls to drink.
It’s so sweet that I narrowed my eyes.
This is something I wouldn’t even dare to think about at home. Let alone sugar water, if you can drink the cornstarch batter and it’s so viscous, it’s really enjoyable.
"Mom, my sister-in-law and uncle haven't eaten yet, let's go out and cook something!" Lin Xue said.
"Xiaoxue, don't bother. I drank sugar water and I'm not hungry anymore!" Bai Xiaomei said and stood up, "We still have to go on a journey, we have to go back!"
"It's still early now, and I won't miss a meal before I go back. Sit down and you'll be ready soon!" Wang Cuihua pushed the person to sit down.
"Yes! Xiaomei! My sister-in-law has not seen you for a long time. Since I saw you several times when you were a child, you have not come here to get married! Let's chat with my sister-in-law!" Bai Xianglan saw that her granddaughter and daughter-in-law were doing this to their little niece.
Okay, I figured something out, so I made a comment to help others.
In the end, the two of them sat down and chatted with Bai Xianglan. Bai Xiaomei never put the child down in her arms, holding her in a rare hug.
After Lin Xue went out, she briefly talked to her mother about Lao Bai's family.
Wang Cuihua felt even more sorry for this sister-in-law.
"Xiaoxue, your sister-in-law is very nice to us, do you remember? She secretly gave us a lot of food when you were a child! She also respects mom and never gives her a stumbling block! Help whenever you can! We are living a good life now.
I have to help your sister-in-law!" Wang Cuihua repeatedly emphasized Bai Xiaomei's kindness.
"Mom, I remember it all! Don't worry! When I leave, I will prepare some food for my sister-in-law to take back. Just now, the second aunt also said that life in my sister-in-law's family is difficult. She is so dilute every day that she doesn't have enough to drink!" Lin Xue said.

"What a sin! My daughter's life has been like this, and she can still say something like asking for a quilt. How can the quilt be so easy to make? Which cloth and cotton are free of charge? They are not cheap!" Wang Cuihua was in a very good mood, this old white woman
It’s really too much. It’s not just your daughter-in-law, but your own daughter.
As the two of them talked, a delicious meal was ready.
Instead of cooking whole grains, Lin Xue stewed rice, stewed chicken with potatoes, stir-fried pork belly with fungus and cabbage, steamed egg custard, and added four pickles.
The food was so delicious and the portions were so generous that the two of them were embarrassed to eat at first. Later, the meat in their bowls was piled high, and they were both hungry.
Before leaving, Lin Xue packed another ten kilograms of corn noodles, five kilograms of rice, and two kilograms of pork belly for them!
Bai Xiaomei refused to accept it, but in the end Wang Cuihua persuaded him to take it.
Chapter completed!
