Pastoral Bamboo Fragrance

Chapter 79
Xiao insisted that Aunt Li stole her family's secret recipe and abducted her daughter.She complained to the onlookers: "All of you judge me, the child is disobedient, I just scolded her a few words. Her aunt said that I, a mother, abused her and said bad things about me every chance she got. But my own is a piece of flesh that fell from my body. How could I be willing to abuse her? You say, who hasn’t beaten or scolded the child? Why did I abuse it. She is good enough to abduct the child to her house. Child You are young and ignorant, are you still ignorant as an adult? My mother, I am so wronged that I didn’t say anything.”

Xiao patted his thigh and cried at the top of his voice, looking sad and wronged.

Aunt Li slapped the meat-cutting knife and said loudly: "Xiao Qiuyun, don't spout blood. You know how you treat the child. If you say you are not willing to abuse her, I will ask you, who made the child treat her every day?" Eat leftovers, sleep in the woodshed, collect firewood, mow grass, wash clothes, and carry water every day before dawn, don’t you have time to catch your breath all day?”

Xiao hurriedly defended: "The children of the poor have long been in charge of the family. Who in our rural family will give the daughter as a daughter? I can't help it."

Aunt Li asked: "The child of the poor is already in charge of the family? Oh, then what is your precious son doing? When Xiaozhu is doing these jobs, what is he doing? He is sleeping late, fattening and losing his temper! They are twins, the same At Shichen, Xiaozhu was two catties heavier than him when he was born, but now he is thirty catties heavier than your daughter, why don't you raise your daughter as a daughter, why do you raise your son as a young master? You talk and talk."

Xiao Shi was about to say how a son can be like a daughter.

Aunt Li didn't give her a chance, and continued to complain: "That's not counting, your whole family still said that she is a bastard, and any troubles in the family are all due to her. If you are mild, you will be scolded, and if you are serious, you will be beaten. The child is good when he sees you and the mouse." When you see a cat, you panic when there is any movement. At the beginning, your family said that she has restrained you, and our family is not afraid of restraint. I asked the villagers to testify that breaking this relative just pulled out the thorn in your flesh and made you Your family is living a smooth life that no one can restrain. I will scrape together 15 taels of silver for your child support, and I will cut it off completely, in case you will go back on your word. It was written in black and white at the beginning, you can see her now, Come here to make trouble again. Xiao Qiuyun, can you show some old face? Can you suck back the saliva you spit out?"

Most of the vendors around here are very familiar with Aunt Li, and they all know what she is like, and they also know part of Li Zhu's affairs.This child is usually kind to others, and he called out uncle and aunt.They all still remember her sallow and emaciated appearance when she first came here.

Seeing Xiao's cheating, this group of people all accused her: "So you are that cruel mother of A Zhu, it's really better to meet you than to be famous. You have such a thick skin."

As soon as someone came forward, others followed suit.

"Yes, yes, is it because of your daughter's restraint that you are so cruel?"

"Your son and daughter were born at the same time, why do you think the daughter is the nemesis?"

"Are you really her mother? The stepmother is not so cruel, is she?" In fact, many stepmothers really dare not abuse their children so blatantly because of concerns about their reputation.

Xiao Shi couldn't argue with so many people even if he was full of mouth.

She had no choice but to concentrate her firepower and play tricks on Aunt Li: "No matter how much you say, it's useless. Anyway, this child was born by me, and even her life belongs to our old Li's family."

Aunt Li was about to speak back.

Li Zhu squeezed into the crowd, looked at Xiao Shi coldly and said every word: "It's true that I was born by you, but if I can choose, I don't want to be born by you at all, you put my piece of meat back Stay where you are."
