Xia Mingzhu pursed her lips and said with a gentle expression, "Mother, Sister Xiaochan is also your daughter, don't scold her like that anymore. Mother, elder sister needs a good reputation if you want to marry her.

Lady Faang curled her lips. "With your kind heart, stupid child, you wouldn't have so much conscience to kill a thousand times over."

Xia Sanhu, who was standing beside her, also said, "Mom, in the future, don't chase Xia Xiaochan to Little Fool's home for the night. If anyone else finds out, how will Xia Xiaochan get married?"

Xia Sanhu's words were quite clear. Xia Xiaochan seemed to have reached her age. If there really was a scandal, what would happen if she didn't get married?

If he couldn't get married, what would happen if he couldn't get a betrothal gift?

Lady Faang said fiercely, "What are you worried about?" If I am unable to get married, then I will sell her to the brothel. Hmph, when the time comes, the price will also be high.

Xia Mingzhu's eyes lit up, but she did not say anything.

Xia Sanhu's eyes sunk, "Mother, what nonsense are you talking about? "Your son is going to take the Imperial Examinations. If my sister is sold to a brothel, how will you make your son become an official in the future?"

Lady Faang slapped her brain and said, "That's right. If I sell this guy, who killed a thousand men, to a brothel, it will affect my son's future prospects."

Xia Sanhu saw that Lady Faang understood what he meant, so he didn't say anything more. He just said with a calm gaze, "Mother, I've spent a lot recently. Can you give me some silver taels?"

Lady Faang froze for a moment, her face turning ugly. "Didn't you say you still had a tael of silver a few days ago?" "Don't think that I don't know. After you and your brother sent that damn girl Xia Xiaohong back, that damn Bachelor Cui gave you a tael of silver.

Xia Sanhu's expression was slightly ugly as he said, "Mother, I have spent a lot of money in the academy. It's just brushes, ink, paper, a favor, clothes for the four seasons, which one of them doesn't need money? [If I am lacking in worldly wisdom or am wearing poor clothes, how can I be friends with someone who is the son of a rich family?] If I don't make friends with such a person, how can I get out of this in the future? Mom, I worked so hard for my family. If I didn't live a good life for my family, why would I work so hard for school? Mother, reading books everyday, not only does it hurt my eyes, it also consumes my mental energy. "

Lady Faang's heart ached at Xia Sanhu's words. Without a word, she took out a hundred dollars and said, "Mother's good son, go spend it. When you run out of money, Mother will help you think of a way.

Xia Sanhu's eyes flashed as he took the money without saying anything.

Xia Mingzhu said, "Mother, it has been hard on you all these years, the whole family is controlled by you, we have you as our family. Xia Mingzhu said," Mother, it has been hard on you all these years, the whole family is controlled by you, we have you as our family, we have you as our family.

Upon hearing this, Lady Faang's eyes lit up as she thought of the glory of being the only one in the family.

"In the end, I, Ming Zhu, was well-behaved and sensible. Unlike those people who kill thousands of people, I'm naturally here to collect debts."

At this time, Lady Tan walked into the room with her three grandchildren. "Lady Faang, what are you muttering about? Have you finished cooking? "Don't starve my grandson to death, otherwise, I'll show you!"

Lady Faang's face darkened as she said carefully, "Alright, alright. I'll go cook."

Lady Faang walked back into the kitchen as she spoke.

After Lady Faang scooped up a large bowl of potatoes, she scooped up the rest of the meat and bone.

Lady Faang looked at the greasy meat and really wanted to take a bite out of it. However, she didn't dare to do so with Lady Tan watching from the side.

Of course, she wasn't willing to cook, either. She glared at Xia Xiaochan and said, "Those who kill a thousand will only know how to eat. They're born to be debt collectors. Hurry up and fry the meat."

Xia Xiaochan remained silent. She picked up a pair of chopsticks and placed them on the cutting board before starting to cut the meat.

When the meat was placed on the cutting board, Xia Xiaochan's eyes flashed with disgust as she looked at the ground that had been bitten into a mess by Lady Faang, like a dog. Tsk tsk, Lady Faang and First Aunt Xia were indeed a family.

Xia Xiaochan looked at this piece of cured meat. This piece of cured meat was from last year's pig slaughtering. After she marinated it in salt water, she purposely chopped down the rosin tree and smoked it. However, she didn't even eat a single piece before Lady Faang locked this piece of meat up.

And now, it had all been for the benefit of others.

Xia Xiaochan's cutting technique did not last long. Soon, a piece of almost transparent cured meat was sliced into pieces.

Xia Xiaochan was washing herself in a bucket at the side, then pouring some water into a bamboo silos.

Since she didn't want to eat it, Xia Xiaochan couldn't even be bothered to cut the ginger and garlic. After she washed the cauliflower, she started to fry it in a pot.

Although there wasn't much left of the cured meat, it was very fat and oily. Almost immediately after it was thrown into the wok, a large amount of oil burst out. The instant the vegetables were thrown into the wok, the fragrance caused First Aunt Xia and the others who were waiting outside to look towards the kitchen.

Lady Faang, who was at the side, scolded viciously, "Killing a thousand is a sin. I can't bear to eat it!"

No matter how much Lady Faang scolded them, the cauliflower and bacon were quickly cooked. When they were served with a large bowl of potato soup, everyone looked at the table and swallowed their saliva.

Xia Xiaochan didn't even look at the table. She cut herself another big radish, pickled it with salt, and threw it into the cilantro.

This radish was what she ate.

By the time she finished mixing the radishes and was in the outer room, Lady Faang had already distributed the dishes to everyone.

The rice was prepared right from the beginning, a dry meal with corn grains and rice cooked together. When Xia Family's aunts returned to Xia Family, they had to eat dry food, this was the rule set by Grandma Xia, Lady Tan.

No matter how much Lady Faang's heart ached, she didn't dare to show it in front of Lady Tan. She scooped up the rice one bowl at a time and the biggest bowl was naturally filled up by Lady Tan and Grandpa Xia.

After the rice was done, it was time for the dishes. Lady Faang's story gave First Aunt Xia and her children a big bowl of potatoes with only a few pieces of cauliflower piled on top of them. Because there was too much food, the meat couldn't be piled up anymore.

Lady Faang's eyes flashed, and she smiled as she handed the full bowl to Zhou Jiaoyue. "Jiaoyue, come to auntie's house and eat to your heart's content, don't be reluctant to eat. Auntie made you such a big bowl of rice, it's definitely enough for you to eat, right?"

Zhou Jiaoyue looked at the fragrant meat on the table and curled her lips. "I want to eat meat!"

The reason why Lady Faang assigned the food like that was to let the people from Zhou Family eat less meat. Now, seeing how Lili was always so shameless when visiting other people's houses, Lady Faang's expression became a little ugly, and said, "Jiaoyue, your bowl is full of food, eat first, then come and pick up some meat."

He turned around and said to Xia Shifeng, "Big sister, your home is still in town and you're still running a shop. Why are you so reluctant to feed your child?"
