Farmhouse Qiaofei

Chapter 10 The Heart of Resentment

A meal, on the surface, is harmonious and laughing, but in fact, many people don't know how to eat it.

When the bowls and chopsticks were left, Mrs. Wu stood up and wanted to clean up the bowls and chopsticks, but was stopped by Mr. Bai.

"Third daughter-in-law, you are still injured, go back and rest, this meal..." Mr. Bai pondered for a while, and finally landed on Qian's body, "Don't worry, there are so many people in our family, there is enough food for one meal. After all, someone picked it up."

He didn't call names intentionally, but just signaled Qian to stand up with his eyes.

However, Qian shi hung her head down as if distracted, and sat tightly on the stool, showing no sign of getting up.

"This..." Mrs. Wu was obviously a little nervous, "How about... I'll do it..."

Old Master Bai sighed secretly, did not speak again, and acquiesced to Wu's behavior of cleaning up the table.

Bai Shao on the side looked a little angry.

Why, relying on her weak body, Qian just sat on the wooden bench openly and did not move.Relying on her youth and tenderness, Mrs. Xu made so many noises in just one meal, that Mrs. Wu had no choice but to get up to help her.

Why, why should Mrs. Wu do all the work at home alone.

Looking at Wu Shi's thin figure, Bai Shao was angry, and Bai Shao felt distressed, so when Wu Shi was about to get up to clean up the dishes, she grabbed Wu Shi's hand, and snuggled into Wu Shi's cuddle coquettishly. arms.

"Mother, mother, Shao'er is not feeling well." Bai Shao said deliberately delicately.

After Wu knew that her daughter was sold into a brothel, she always felt guilty towards Bai Shao, and it can be said that she loved and cared about Bai Shao even more than before.

So when she heard Bai Shao's words, she immediately changed her complexion and touched Bai Shao's face, and said nervously, "Shao'er, what's wrong with you, don't scare mother, what's wrong with you, tell mother. "

Bai Chuanbai also hurriedly came over worried.

Bai Shao held Wu Shi's clothes and Bai Chuanbai's hand at the same time, and said softly, "Father, mother, Shao'er... Shao'er is a little sleepy..."

As if to verify her words, just after she finished speaking, Bai Shao yawned, then dazedly rubbed against Wu Shi's lapel, and whispered, "Shao'er, Shao'er wants mother to hold her..."

Although Mrs. Wu is thin and weak, she has a lot of strength due to working all year round.

In addition, Bai Shao was just a thin seven-year-old girl, she didn't weigh much at all, so she hugged Bai Shao immediately.

"Father, mother, my daughter-in-law is taking Shao'er back to the room first." He hurriedly told Mr. Bai and Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Wu hugged Bai Shao, Bai Wei stood aside and lifted the curtain cleverly, Bai Chuanbai took Bai Yun Actually followed.

The whole family left the main room in such an orderly manner.

There was a table of uncleaned dishes left behind, as well as people around the table with changing expressions.

"The third daughter-in-law just left like that." Liu's complexion was a little unsightly, "She hasn't done the dishes yet, and that girl Bai Wei also ran away!"

Usually, these dishes are done by their mothers.

"The fifth sister has just returned home. It is right for the third daughter-in-law to care about her more." Mr. Bai sighed, and looked at Liu Shi helplessly, "Besides, we can't let the third daughter-in-law do everything. , there are so many people in the family, it’s impossible for everyone to eat for free.”

This is a bit heavy to say.

Qian Shi finally stood up reluctantly, and said in a low voice, "Father, mother, daughter-in-law, let's clean up."

After finishing speaking, he took two steps forward, carefully stacked the empty bowls together, and put the unfinished dishes into the vegetable cooker.

Because her body is indeed a little weak, Qian can't always carry a tall stack of empty bowls to the sink like Wu, she can only divide the empty bowls into many parts, and go back and forth one by one take.

In this way, it seems that there is a lot of work.

Mrs. Liu glanced at Mrs. Qian's pale face just now, and set her gaze on Mrs. Qian's eldest daughter, "Elder sister, your mother is so tired, so you can be proud of yourself." Get up and stand aside and watch?"

Bai Kou seemed to just come back from her own thoughts, she quickly stood up from the stool, and said hastily, "Grandma...I'll help my mother right now."

After finishing speaking, he took two steps forward, took the last few empty bowls from Mrs. Qian, and left the main room.

Only then did Mrs. Liu show a satisfied look.

In the yard, in front of the sink.

Qian Shi took the empty bowls from Bai Kou's hand and slowly brushed them.

Bai Kou squatted down with some reluctance, watching the water in the sink gradually change from clean to greasy, she felt nauseated in her heart.

"You don't need to brush, Kou'er." Qian glanced at the main room, making sure that Liu hadn't lifted the curtain, so she stopped the eldest daughter from cleaning the dishes, "You have tender hands, so don't touch these dirty things."

"But my grandma..." Bai Kou said hesitantly, "Mom, your health is not good either."

"I'm fine. After all, I have a pair of old rough hands, no better than your meticulously maintained hands." Qian Shi glanced at Bai Kou's tender and creamy hands, with a hint of pride on his face, "You didn't do this kind of rough work, mother." You know, you're different from those kids."

While speaking, Qian glanced at the location of the west side house.

That means, obviously, the two sisters, Bai Wei and Bai Shao.

"Today, Fifth Younger Sister, there is something unusual." When this was mentioned, Bai Kou was obviously in a bad mood, "I actually dragged my third aunt away, and no one cleaned the dishes, so it fell on my mother."

And because it fell on her mother, and her mother couldn't do it, Mrs. Liu set her eyes on her and asked her to do the job.

But in fact, Bai Kou had never washed the dishes.

When Wu Shi didn't come in before, Bai Kou was still young, so naturally he couldn't wash the dishes.

When Bai Kou grew up a little bit, and Wu Shi came in, almost all the work of washing dishes and cooking fell on Wu Shi's head, and everyone in the other rooms was relieved.

Therefore, Bai Kou took it for granted that these tasks of washing dishes belonged to Mrs. Wu, and she should do them.

But now, because she didn't come to do it, the two of them had to wash the dishes.

For a moment, Bai Kou felt resentment towards Wu Shi in his heart.

Wu Shi didn't know all this.

She was sitting on the stool beside the bed, looking at her little daughter worriedly, "Shao'er, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, mother." Bai Shao smiled at Wu Shi, revealing a mouthful of white and neat small teeth, like millet grains, really pretty.

"It's fine, it's fine, it's fine." Wu Shi breathed a sigh of relief, put Bai Shao's hand into the quilt, and tucked the corner of the quilt for her, then looked at her lovingly and said, "Okay Child, you are tired today, go to sleep for a while."

"Mother, will you go?" Bai Shao was worried that Wu would go back to do the dishes again, so she deliberately said, "Shao Er wants Mother to watch Shao Er sleep."

"Okay, okay, mother is watching Shao'er sleep, mother is not going anywhere." Wu suddenly laughed.

She touched Bai Shao's head, and tucked her quilt repeatedly, to make sure there was nothing missing, then she sat at the side with peace of mind, watching Bai Shao close her eyes quietly.

Bai Wei snorted at the side, and muttered, "It's really disturbing."

In Shilipu, stir means to make a fuss.

Can disturb, that is to say, a person can make trouble and cause trouble.

Although Bai Shao closed her eyes, she still heard Bai Wei's muttering, but she didn't care, and just took it as Bai Wei's compliment to herself.

Also, she was really tired.

Really, really tired.

After a short meeting, Bai Shao fell asleep.

Wu Shi, who was sitting beside her, rubbed her eyes, lowered her head, and sobbed softly.

"Mother, why are you crying again?" Bai Wei pulled a stool beside Wu Shi's in confusion, and whispered, "Shao'er is already asleep, so don't wake her up."

"I know." Wu nodded, took out a handkerchief, wiped away tears, and said, "I just feel scared, if Shao'er doesn't run out smartly, if no one helps Shao'er, if she is alone When I went back to Shilipu, I was arrested again, or met bad guys again..."

"Didn't Shao'er come back now?" Although Bai Wei didn't like Bai Shao, she couldn't help persuading Wu Shi when she saw how sad she was, "Besides, I promised that I wouldn't sell anyone else." Now, Shaoer will not be sold out again, and my brother and I will watch her carefully in the future, and nothing will happen to her."

"I'm scared, mother is scared." Clutching Bai Wei's arm, Wu cried, "If something happens to Shao'er, what should I do, why should I explain to others."

"Mother, who are you explaining to?" Bai Wei was a little puzzled and asked quickly.

Wu shi shut her mouth immediately.

Bai Chuanbai on the side coughed twice, and attracted Bai Wei's gaze, "Well, Wei'er, go and see if your aunt has washed the dishes, if not, help me."

As expected, Bai Wei's thoughts were pulled away immediately, "What? Why do you want me to wash it?"

Bai Wei was very angry.

In the past, she did all the work for Wu's sake. As a daughter, she couldn't bear to see Wu's suffer alone, so she offered to help share it. This doesn't mean she likes to do those jobs.

Now, it's hard for Mrs. Wu to do a job, so why should she go to help, why should she.

"Your aunt is not in good health..." Bai Chuanbai frowned and looked at Bai Wei, "Why don't you go to help me."

"You..." Bai Wei was so angry that she couldn't speak, "I won't go, my aunt also has a daughter, and her daughter will help her, she doesn't need me."

"Wei'er." Bai Chuanbai's face darkened a little, "Be obedient, hurry up."

"Forget it." Seeing that Bai Wei's eye circles were a little red, Wu couldn't help persuading, "Baby's father, Wei'er and her aunt... are not too close, if she doesn't want to go, let's not go .”

Bai Chuanbai sighed, seeing that Bai Wei didn't keep asking what Wu Shi said just now, he didn't force Bai Wei to help Qian Shi any more.

In the west side room, it was completely quiet.
