Zhou Zhaodi's mother's name is Liu Erya, a standard representative of patriarchal preference for daughters. This is just because she was born in this kind of family, and her parents love her younger brother but do not love her.

But Liu Erya's parents can do superficial things, but she doesn't do any superficial things.

After marrying Zhou Feng's eldest brother Zhou Long, the two simply had the same chemistry and hit it off immediately. They are both lazy and patriarchal.

But Zhou Long showed that he could not control his wife, so Zhou Long's reputation was better than Liu Erya's.

But Zhou Feng knew the true nature of her brother. This eldest brother bullied her when she was a child.

After Zhou Zhaodi was born, she started doing laundry and cooking as soon as she reached the height of the stove. If the couple were not wealthy and had no food to eat if they didn't work in the fields, they might not even be willing to farm.

When Zhou Zhaodi grew up, she started working in the fields when she was eleven or twelve years old.

The two of them were greedy, and knowing that the Zhou Feng family's food was good, they had some thoughts in their minds.

Liu Erya said sourly: "Zhou Long, your sister's family can do that. The elder brother and sister-in-law eat glutinous rice bran, and her family can also eat meat sauce."

Zhou Zhaodi was trembling at the side, afraid that Liu Erya would hit her again and did not dare to say a word.

Zhou Long didn't take it seriously, "If you want to eat it, let's go find my sister and borrow some more. You see, my son is starving and thin after eating the meat he doesn't have. We can just return it to my sister when the meat is divided at the end of the year."

Although Zhou Long and Liu Erya worked in the fields, the work they did was not enough to feed the family. They often asked Zhou Feng to borrow grain, and they would pay back one and a half kilograms if they borrowed two kilograms.

Zhou Feng didn't care much for the sake of the family.

This time the two of them are going to borrow meat sauce to eat. They don’t know how much meat they will return at the end of the year.

Liu Erya pouted: "I don't even know that I brought food to us and asked us to borrow it. I don't act like a sister at all. You know, my brother will give me food."

If anyone who knew Liu Erya was there, they would definitely scold her, because every time Liu Erya's brother gave something to Liu Erya, he would take home twice as much as what he gave!

And if Zhou Feng really gave something to the two of them, he would only get a smiling face and a bowl of water, and the rest would be gone.

Zhou Long did not refute Liu Erya's words, "Let Zhaodi clean up the vegetable patch at home and then borrow it. My sister feels sorry for Zhaodi. We won't worry about not being able to borrow it while Zhaodi is here."

Both of them knew Zhou Feng's love for Zhao Di. The last time Zhou Zhaodi stayed at Zhou Feng's house for a few days and helped her, Liu Minzhi gave her a bag of brown sugar to take home.

Liu Erya was dissatisfied with the shortage and lost his temper at that time, laughing at Zhou Zhaodi for working in vain these days. Even if she went to the town to do odd jobs for a few days, the money she got could buy two bags of brown sugar.

She had never thought about how difficult it was to find odd jobs in the town, and how difficult it was for young girls to find work.

Zhou Zhaodi successfully escaped and was not beaten severely. Liu Erya looked at her sideways and said, "Why don't you go and finish the work in the field? Be quick with your hands and feet. Finish it early and go to your aunt's house to borrow food." .”

Then she muttered under her breath: "What a loser."

Zhou Zhaodi was scolded and beaten by her silently. She had been used to it since she was a child. No one in this family would speak up for her.

After Liu Erya left, she looked up carefully and saw her brother Zhou Gui laughing at her at the door.

Zhou Zhaodi looked at him sadly, it would be nice if she was a boy.

Zhou Gui was holding a steamed bun in her hand. It was a steamed bun with two noodles. It was a rare good food in their family. She swallowed. She had not eaten when she came back from her aunt's house.

Zhou Gui held up the steamed bun in his hand in a showy manner: "I want to eat it, but I won't let you eat it. What's a loser doing with these?" His face was full of ridicule towards Zhou Zhaodi. He was the same age as Liu Sibo. They were 13 years old, but their body shapes were very different. Liu Sibo was lean, while he was raised to be fat.

Zhou Zhaodi thought about it more than once, if only Liu Sibo were his brother, he would not laugh at her when she was beaten, and he would stop her when her parents beat her.

Zhou Gui followed Liu Erya's example and yelled at Zhou Zhaodi: "Why don't you go to work quickly? Why are you so stupid?" Then he left happily.

Zhou Zhaodi was the only one left in the yard. She lowered her head and shed tears. She must leave here.

The construction of Cheng Xu's house started. Secretary Wang found it, and Liu Minzhi helped her find it. There are nine people in total. Liu Minzhi led these people to work, and Sibo also helped to pick things up behind. s things.

The Cheng family's old house had been in disrepair for a long time. The first step was to clear out the overgrown weeds, then move all the usable furniture out of the house, and the third step was to lift off the roof.

It took three steps and half a day to get it done. With more people and more strength, things progressed very quickly. Soon it was noon. Cheng Xu took Aunt Hao and Sister-in-law Yang to work hard in the kitchen. Aunt Zhou was also helping because Now that there is nothing to do, Aunt Hao even called Sister Xiaoru to work together.

Cheng Xu prepared five kilograms of meat for sixteen people to eat. The man was doing physical work, so he must eat some meat. She went to town early in the morning and got the package and money sent by her parents. I bought a pound of meat and took the rest from the space.

Knowing that Cheng Xu wanted to live alone and renovate the old house, Cheng Fu, an old father, directly sent 50 yuan to Cheng Xu. She calculated that four or five days would be enough to repair the house with this number of people. , the salary is almost 30, and the money sent by parents can completely cover it, and there is still some leftover.

She also took out lard to boil oil. The rapeseed oil at home was gone long ago. Lard can be used for cooking, deep-frying and cooking. It is very practical.

People in the countryside will be stronger if they eat meat and oil. Cheng Xu often heard her aunt say in her previous life that if people in the fields only eat pure oil, their hands will have no strength.

She originally wanted to buy some oil, but she had no choice but to give up because she didn't have any oil coupons.

Five people can cook quickly. Sister Xiaoru is helping to light the fire, Aunt Hao and Aunt Zhou are washing the vegetables, and Cheng Xu and Sister-in-law Yang are cooking.There are only five types of dishes, but the portions are large and filling.

Stir-fried lotus root slices, shredded pork with green pepper, rotten meat and cowpeas, twice-cooked pork with potatoes, and tomato and egg soup.

"Okay, let's share the food first, and then serve the food to the workers when they come back." Cheng Xu didn't want any men to finish eating and leave leftovers for the women to eat, so he just waited until these people came back. Eat ahead of time.

Aunt Hao hadn't eaten it in advance, so she always said after others finished it: "It's not good."

Cheng Xu had already begun to divide the dishes: "There's nothing wrong with it. Do we still have to serve them when they are hungry? Of course we have to eat first."

A few people just ate like this first. I have to say that Cheng Xu’s cooking is really good. This kind of big pot rice is delicious and delicious. Sister-in-law Yang’s cooking is not bad either. She ate the rotten meat and cowpeas cooked by Sister-in-law Yang, which was sour. Fragrant, delicious and spicy to go with rice.

I’m going to update a chapter today. Ghosts are crying and wolves are howling downstairs. It’s hard for me to concentrate. It’s so miserable.

Thanks to Concubine Luo Ranbaoer who reads the article every day these days. The pit is indeed a little shallower. I am working hard to write.

If readers like it, please give me more reminders for updates. I found a question, why do my readers like to add bookshelves but don’t like to remind me for updates?
