Chapter 9

Li Changhui didn't pay attention to what her mother said, just changed hands and pulled a pheasant: "You take this back and eat."

Liu Cuifen didn't answer, but her face sank: "You caught so many prey, and you only gave us a pheasant, do you still think I'm your mother!"

Li Changhui glanced at Liu Cuifang, without any extra emotion, just spoke lightly.

"The rice, flour, grain and oil are all eaten at home, and it's going to be summer soon. Xiao He'an and I have no clothes, and Yu'er Hao'er's clothes, socks, shoes and hats are all torn, and the clothes are too short."

Liu Cuifang was taken aback, frowned and said, "The food given to you is enough for a month, and it's been eaten up in just a few days. Your daughter-in-law is too good at housekeeping, so it's fine if you don't go out every day, why..."

Before Liu Cuifang finished speaking, Li Changhui interrupted her.

"I have a big appetite and eat a lot. Even if I am only given that little food, I can only eat it for half a month at most."

It's just a random slap, he doesn't have such a big appetite, but he just doesn't want Lin He to be blamed by his mother.

Since when he brought her back, he said he would not let her be wronged, he naturally wanted to do what he said.

The expression on Liu Cuifang's face froze for a moment, and she looked at her son's big head - she didn't dare to look at his face.

"During the few days you were at home, you didn't eat much."

"I didn't cook enough food, I didn't eat enough, I only had a few full meals these days."

This made Liu Cuifang feel embarrassed for a moment. Her son was hungry at home. If she said this, the whole village would laugh at her for being harsh.

If Liu Cuifang looked down, she could see Li Hao's wide-eyed expression looking at her father in disbelief.

But he quickly realized that he was afraid he couldn't help laughing, so he ran back in a hurry, not intending to expose it at all.

But Liu Cuifang quickly regained her senses, still staring at Li Changhui, those hares and pheasants on the shoulder pole.

"Then you can't eat so much. It's still bad if you leave it at home. Your two brothers and sisters, as well as a few nephews and nieces, haven't tasted any oil or water for half a month. As an uncle, don't you Does it hurt?"

Li Changhui looked completely reticent, and even went over his mother, put the things under the eaves, and picked up another rabbit.

Liu Cuifang's eyes lit up, thinking that the son was for her.

Unexpectedly, Li Changhui put the rabbit aside, dumped the bamboo shoots in the basket into the dustpan, and put all the remaining pheasants and hares into the basket.

"I asked Yu'er. In the past, when parents had meat and candy, they would always cling to their younger brothers' children first. Yu'er Hao'er hasn't tasted meat for more than a month."

Liu Cuifang's complexion changed, obviously she didn't expect that Li Changhui would say such a thing.

"In the past, they had no father or mother, and they relied on their grandparents to live, so I won't say anything more. Now that we're back, we can't let the children have enough food and clothing."

"This rabbit is what my family ate at night, and I took all the rest to the town to buy. My cousins ​​have two new clothes every year. As a father, I can't do my best to my son. Mother, do you think so?"

Li Changhui's voice was flat, without any extra emotion, he didn't seem to be angry, but Liu Cuifang heard it, but he always felt that he was complaining about himself, taking his money, but not taking good care of his children.

Liu Cuifang's face was also ugly: "Why, you want to say, it's not wrong for me to help you take care of the children all these years? Now that you have grown up and your wings are stiff, you don't take your parents seriously?"

"What did mother say, isn't this pheasant honoring you and dad?"

Li Changhui took out the pheasant that Liu Cuifang didn't want again, but Liu Cuifang didn't take it, so he put it on the ground aside.

Liu Cuifang's face was dark, and she didn't show any face: "You have hunted so many prey, just give me a pheasant, it's not too shameful!"

Really not feeling ashamed, Li Changhui picked up the prey and lifted the rabbit.

"Mom, if you don't want it, I'll buy it together. The family is very short of money. Otherwise, if you give me more money, I'll give you two rabbits as well."

"You, you unfilial son, the family is separated, and you still ask me for money!"

Liu Cuifang was so angry that her eyes were filled with stars, she pointed at Li Changhui and roared.

A few small heads poked out from the kitchen, Li Changhui just saw a shadow, and saw them shrink back hastily.

He was amused in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

"What did mother say, I'm short of money. These pheasants and hares are all going to be sold for money. If you insist on getting a few more, what should I sell for money?"

The voices of the mother and son are not low, and they are outside the house, and the nearest neighbor to their house is only five or sixty meters away.

What's more, there is another aunt weeding in the vegetable garden, which is between the two families.

She heard what the mother and son said clearly. She also saw Li Yu carrying two pheasants just now.

At that time, I thought there were only two, and I was just envious, but now I found out that there are so many, I couldn't help being moved.

After hearing what Lin Changhui meant, the aunt couldn't help but be moved.

"Chang Hui, are you selling all the pheasants and hares?"

Li Changhui was stunned for a moment. He had been back to the village for so long, and it was rare for someone to take the initiative to greet her, and it was an old lady who avoided him before.

But Li Changhui nodded quickly: "Well, it's for sale."

Seeing that Li Changhui was not angry, the aunt breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said, "That's right, you want to sell anyway, I want to buy one, how much do you want?"

"Twenty for the pheasant, forty for the hare."

It's not expensive, if you go to the town, you can sell it for a few more pennies, which is considered a friendship price for him.

The aunt wiped her hands on her pants: "Wait a minute, I'll go back and get the money to buy a pheasant."

Recently, the field is busy and the work is heavy. I bought a pheasant, which is just for the family to replenish their body.

While the aunt was going home to get the money, Li Changhui arrived at the door of the kitchen, just in time to see the mother and son running in through the door quickly, and then pretended to be indifferent and didn't know anything.

He also pretended not to see it: "I'll deal with the rabbit first, and then I'll go to the town. I may come back a little later. You don't have to wait for me when you eat."

Lin He hurried out with the prepared hot water, just in time to see Liu Cuifang leaving angrily with a pheasant.

"You hate your mother-in-law so much, aren't you afraid that she will get angry?"

"It's okay, if you are angry, you will be angry. A pheasant is enough to honor them. A pot of soup is enough for the two old people to finish a meal."

Lin He glanced at him and thought to himself, that's not two old people, there are more than a dozen people eating at the parents-in-law's side.

But obviously, Li Changhui didn't think about his brothers, sisters, nephews and nieces at all. The filial piety he said was really just the second elder.

As for the fact that they wanted to share the pheasant with others, Li Changhui didn't care at all.

Lin He was sure in his heart that he had his own opinions and was not a foolish person. In the days to come, he would be relieved.

But, isn't it a little too stingy?

Anyway, it's my mother.

She thought she would give a rabbit, but unexpectedly there was only a pheasant.
