Chapter 14 The oppressed aunt
"It is a natural thing for women to be filial to their parents. Who dares to say anything? Besides, now we are all about equality between men and women. Men can be filial to their parents. Why can't women? Don't women have their own parents?" Raised.”

"Miaomiao... don't say this anymore. If people outside hear it, no one will dare to marry you in the future."

As soon as he said these words, Miao Xiaomiao instantly thought of the lame husband who had domestically abused her, and she couldn't help but feel a wave of fear.

"Auntie, I will not marry. From now on, Yunyun and I will raise you together."

"What are you talking about? Women will get married sooner or later."

Miao Xiaomiao knew that it would be impossible to explain this to Li Manman all at once, but in order to dispel Li Manman's idea of ​​having another child, Miao Xiaomiao could only try his best to make Li Manman change his patriarchal mentality.

"Auntie, family planning is so serious now. If you really want to have another child, my uncle's job might be gone."

"I still have a son if I don't have one."

Li Manman's obsession with having a son has become deeply ingrained because of her mother-in-law's discrimination.

Just when the two were still about to argue, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Miao Xiaomiao quickly stood up and opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, Miao Xiaomiao saw her uncle walking in aggressively. As soon as he saw several people sitting at the table eating, his uncle Tian Youliang became very angry.

"Okay, you have eaten here. I wonder if the whole family is still hungry?"

"Youliang, I finally came here, so..."

"So what? You are only looking out for yourself now. There are so many people in your family, and you don't care about them at all."

Miao Xiaomiao originally wanted to give her uncle some face, but when she heard her uncle talking more and more, Miao Xiaomiao suddenly became angry.

"Sister-in-law, don't you, a dozen or so people in your family, have any hands? Why do you have to wait for your aunt to come to cook a meal?"

"Miaomiao, this is our family's family matter, you little kid, don't worry about it."

"It's nothing to do with family matters. I only saw that there are more than a dozen people in your family, and there is not even one person who can cook. I am only a few years old and can cook a table full of food. Isn't that right in your family?" If you kill my aunt, the whole family will starve to death?"

"Li Manman, what do you care about when your niece speaks so unpleasantly?"

After all, Tian Youliang is just a relative. Being spoken to like this by a junior really makes him lose face. However, he has to follow the rules of his elders and cannot get angry in front of his juniors. He can only take out his anger on Li Manman. .

Li Manman has always been used to being submissive, and because she has never given birth to a boy, she suffers daily blows from her husband's family. At this time, when Tian Youliang shouted, she could only turn her head and said to Miao Xiaomiao:
"Miaomiao, please stop talking. There are many things to do in this family. Even if I am a woman, I have nothing to do. Besides, cooking is not a dirty job."

Miao Xiaomiao couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard Li Manman say this.

If Li Manman continues to be so cowardly, even if she lives a good life during childbirth, she will probably be bullied to death by her husband's family like herself.

"Auntie, in that house, as far as I know, your sister-in-law seems to have nothing to do at home."

"She, doesn't she have to take care of the child at home? This child is so noisy, how can she have time to cook."

"Then your old lady is not very old, why can't she cook?"

"My mother-in-law is an elder after all. Where can the elders cook for the younger ones to eat?"

Miao Xiaomiao almost felt sick when she heard Li Manman's defense for her husband's family.

It seemed that Li Manman wanted to find another way to escape the difficult childbirth she suffered in her previous life.

"Hey, forget it, go back. If you don't go back, it will be your fault if your mother-in-law and her family starve to death later."

Miao Xiaomiao waved her hands, with a look of hatred on her face.Li Manman didn't know how her niece, who had always been well-behaved, became so sharp-tongued this time.

She was asked several times and had nothing to say.

Tian Youliang frowned when he looked at Miao Xiaomiao, as if he was unhappy about Miao Xiaomiao contradicting his elders today.

He turned around and walked outside, ignoring that Li Manman was still behind him.

"Miaomiao, my aunt is going back now. I'll come to see you next time. You'd better save some money and don't be too lavish..."

Li Manman wanted to give Miao Xiaomiao a few more words of advice, but saw Miao Xiaomiao waving to her impatiently.

"Auntie, go back soon. If you keep nagging here, your whole family will starve to death."

Li Manman wanted to say something else, but when he heard Miao Xiaomiao say this, he shut up instantly and ran after Tian Youliang.

After Li Manman left, Miao Xiaomiao began to put away the dishes.

Li Manman asked herself to save some money, but Miao Xiaomiao disagreed. Instead of saving, it is better to think about how to make money.

She was thinking about it as she was tidying up. She thought it would be better to get up early tomorrow and go for a walk in the mountains.

If she remembered correctly, there was an old pepper tree in the mountain. Because people here didn't like eating hemp, so no one touched the pepper tree very much.

As a person who has lived a new life, Miao Xiaomiao naturally knows how delicious the pepper tree is when used as seasoning.

Early the next morning, Miao Xiaomiao entrusted Miao Xiaohe to Zhang Qinfen to take care of him while he went to the mountains.

She kept walking along the mountain road in her memory. After searching for a long time, she finally found the pepper trees.

Because there is no one to pick it, and there is plenty of sunshine here, the pepper tree is growing really gratifyingly, with dense branches covered with small red fruits.

Miao Xiaomiao picked one and put it in her mouth. She felt that her mouth was numb and she couldn't feel anything at all.

She carefully avoided the thorny places and picked the small reddish-brown fruits with leaves into her basket.

Before long, Miao Xiaomiao's basket was filled with a basketful of pepper.

At this time, the genius completely brightened up, and Miao Xiaomiao quickened her pace and rushed towards the town.

Because everyone here is rushing to the morning market, Miao Xiaomiao must sell the pepper before noon.

When Miao Xiaomiao came to the town, she did not go directly to the market, but went to the state-owned hotel in the town.

Although the economy has been liberalized now, everyone started doing small businesses, and few even opened restaurants.

Not to mention a larger hotel, and now the largest hotel in town is the state-owned hotel.

Miao Xiaomiao planned to go to the state-owned hotel to ask first.

The chefs there have seen a lot and are willing to try.

When Miao Xiaomiao came to the door of the state-owned hotel, she saw two waiters lazily wiping the table with rags. She saw Miao Xiaomiao walking in with a basket on her back without raising her head.

"You kid, go play somewhere else, don't block us from doing things here."
