Chapter 157: Digging wild vegetables
Mrs . Liu hurriedly waved her hands: Niang, dont you know the situation in my family? How am I going to open this mouthof mine to borrow from them? They might even come and borrow to us instead .
When Mrs . Zhang sees that there was no hope to separate from the Bai Family, she tried her best to suppressed this thought first . This matter needs to be carefully thought . Nothing in this life was easy, but she was not afraid to face it . Bai Zhi and Zhao Lan successfully separated from this rotten family . Sooner or later, she, Zhang Shumei will also succeed .
Old Lady Bai stared at Mrs . Lius eyes and secretly cursed her for saying useless things .
Now, more than dozens of eyes stared at her, waiting for her to make a decision .
There was no rice and no oil in the house . She must find a way to get some rice, either she will borrow or buy it .
Old Lady Bai felt so bad just by thinking to spend the little coins left in her small box . Those coins will not be enough even if she added them all . Also, it took her a long time to save those coins, so now that she needs to take them out . She felt like her flesh was being cut off .
In the end, Old Lady Bai waved her hand, then said: If we dont have rice, cant we live? You just have to dig more wild vegetables . Eating wild vegetables is just the same, its not like we havent tried it .
Mrs . Zhang doesnt care . Anyway, everyones situation was the same, no one eats better than the other .
Bai Xiaofeng sighed and turned to go to the backyard . He had to go to study . He had to go to practice writing . He must pass the exam and become a big official . Only by then, he can get rid of this poverty and maddening life .
Bai Dabao also wanted to slip away, but he was stopped by Mrs . Zhang: Dabao, where are you going?
Seeing her son was being embarrassed, Mrs . Liu immediately helped: Why does it matter to you where Dabao is going? Dont you have your own son? Why do you care about other peoples son?
Mrs . Zhang coldly sneered and said: Who cares about who? Im telling you, from todays onward, no matter what you do, our family doesnt care . Dont think like things were still the same as before . That you can just lazying around . There is no such cheap thing in this world . In the past, there was Zhao Lan, who work like a horse for this family, but now, shes gone . Theres no one you can just casually order around .
Mrs . Liu put her hand on her waist and ready herself to go to war, but Old Lady Bai interrupted her: If you continue this argument, it is estimated that we will not eat for a day . If you have so much energy, go and dig up wild vegetables . Stop quarreling, and just go now .
Bai Dazhu busily opened his mouth: I cant move my arms, I cant go .
Bai Dabao grabbed his stomach and shouted that hes having a stomachache . Then, he ran towards the latrine .
Mrs . Liu quickly rushed to her husbands side and said: I need to take care of my husband .
Old Lady Bais eyes once again fell to Mrs . Zhang and said: Its only you who is available . Your family are all healthy, unlike them, they are all sick .
Mrs . Zhangs sneered, Bai Erzhu shivered in anger, and Bai Fugui also got angry . Its very obvious that these people were bullying them .
Mrs . Zhang opened her mouth and said: Well then, our family will go . We will dig wild vegetables, but I cannot guarantee that there will be a good result . Just wait for us for a while .
After that, Mrs . Zhang gave Bai Erzhu and Bai Zhenzhu a meaningful look . Then, their whole family left .
Old Lady Bai felt something wrong inside her heart . The look in Mrs . Zhangs eyes was weird, so she followed them a few steps and said: Erzhu, come back home soon, your niang is very hungry .
Bai Erzhu didnt reply, he didnt even turn around to look . He just walked in a hurry to catch up with his wife . Then, asked: Wife, are we really going to dig wild vegetables for elder brothers family?
