Chen Xiaomi shouted from behind: "Sister-in-law, wait for me, I will go with you."

When he saw his mother and sister-in-law going out, Chen Zitong blinked his big eyes and stared at his father's expression.

Chen Gaoyuan thought for a moment and said to his youngest daughter: "Don't tell your sister about this."

Chen Zitong pursed his lips: "Dad, it's useless for you to just give me instructions. My sister-in-law and mother will definitely stir up trouble in front of my sister.

If you don’t believe it, just wait and see.

This is a good opportunity to add fuel to the fire, stir up trouble and make trouble in a different way."

Chen Gaoyuan, who was in a good mood outside, felt like his forehead was knotted whenever something happened at home, and he couldn't worry about anything.

As for what his wife and several younger sisters were thinking, Chen Gaoyuan knew very well that they just wanted to completely cut off the eldest daughter's thoughts about Li Heng.

…

Opposite the door, Lao Li's house.

Thinking that she and her husband had eaten meat at Chen's house for several days, Tian Run'e began to feel sorry for her children. So she took a kitchen knife, climbed onto the stove, planned to cut some bacon for dinner, and stir-fry a meat dish with garlic sprouts and tofu to help her two sisters.

Please improve your life.

But when she raised her head, eh? She realized something was wrong. Why had the pork shank and pork belly changed places?

Also, why is this pork belly so short?

Tian Run'e is a very considerate person. She always knows how many meters there are in the rice vat, how long the needlework at home is, how many cabbage heads there are in the field, etc. The head of the house has never made any mistakes in these years.

What's more, it's one of the few bacon items in this family that can be exchanged for money. It's simply her lifeblood. How could she not remember it clearly?

Her eyes wandered between the two pieces of bacon several times. After a while, she switched the kitchen knife from her right hand to her left hand, and then used her right thumb to press the cross-section of the pork belly.

Sure enough, when the ashes were wiped off the pot, fresh white cuts were exposed inside.

Staring at the short pork belly, Tian Run'e suddenly felt panicked. Then she went down to the stove to get some pot ashes and restored the bacon to its original shape.

Arriving in the backyard, Tian Run'e quietly asked Li Jianguo, who was feeding water to the cows: "Jianguo, have you ever touched bacon?"

"What bacon?"

Li Jianguo turned around, realized what he was doing and asked hurriedly: "Did you lose the bacon at home?"

Tian Run'e shook her head and immediately told her what she had just discovered.

After listening, Li Jianguo fell silent.

After a long while, he said sadly: "Er Bao must be really greedy."

Tian Run'e also holds the same view.

The couple did not think about theft, because if it was a thief, it would not be as simple as throwing away a piece of bacon, but the whole piece.

The dinner was unexpectedly sumptuous, including river shrimps with leeks and fried tofu with two sides.

There is also a bowl of waxed pork ribs.

Phew! These are Li Heng’s favorite foods. He filled a bowl of rice, put some river shrimps and tofu on top with a few chopsticks, and ate it with his head down.

We are all from our own family, so we don’t have to be too particular about it. We just feel free to do whatever we want. I ate two big bowls of sweet potato rice in one go, filling my belly to the brim.

This was the most satisfying meal he had ever had since he was reborn, and his round belly felt so solid.

Unfortunately, the only flaw is the sweet potato rice. He really vomited after eating it. He really doesn't like eating it. It would be nice if it could be replaced with white rice.

After more than 20 days of hard life, he now understands the fact that, regardless of facing the sea, as long as he eats white rice and has meaty food, it means spring is warm and the flowers are blooming.

After dinner, the second sister magically took out a 10-cent packet of spiced melon seeds from her pocket. She just glanced at her brother without calling him, and just sat on the threshold and started knocking to herself.

To be honest, if she hadn't seen Li Heng doing well these days, she wouldn't have even glanced at him. In the past, she was used to eating alone.

At this time, Tian Run'e suddenly asked Li Jianguo, "Jianguo, have you eaten sweet wine? Why are there two dishes missing from the sweet wine?"

Two dishes and bowls missing?

Didn’t the second sister only secretly eat a bowl of sweet wine that night? When did she secretly drink another bowl?

Li Heng subconsciously looked at his second sister.

After receiving his look, Li Lan looked away expressionlessly, but her right hand did not stop and continued to put melon seeds into her mouth.

I saw her upper lip and lower lip touching like that, pia! A melon seed peeled out on the ground.

Pia! Another melon seed fell to the ground.

Seeing the look in Manzai's eyes, Li Jianguo understood everything. He knew that his wife was knocking the mountain to shake the tiger, and warned the second treasure not to eat sweet wine again, for fear of recurring stomach problems.

Li Jianguo smiled and agreed: "I didn't keep my mouth shut for a while, so I ate more."

Before the matter was over, Tian Run'e mentioned another thing: "The 20 yuan under the pillow disappeared. Did you take it too?"

Hearing this, Li Heng's eyes moved down and landed on the palm of his second sister's hand, on the spiced melon seeds.

Li Lan ignored him, turned his head away a little, and licked the melon seeds as if nothing had happened.

Li Jianguo glanced at his second daughter from the corner of his eye and continued to tell you: "When I was making the bed this morning, I found 20 yuan on the ground. I picked it up. I was busy with Grandma Chun's affairs, so I forgot to tell you."

As he spoke, he counted out two 10-yuan bills from his underwear pocket and handed them to his wife.

Tian Run'e took the money, put it in her pocket, and said to her husband: "I just finished eating, I will take you for a walk. Your body cannot sit for a long time."

"Eh, okay."

The couple, who were deeply in love for a while, left and went for a walk along the road.

Li Heng did not act like an eyesore and went up to the private room on the second floor to continue writing "Alive".

There are only 40,000 words short of 600 words. I must finish it today.

When she came back from a walk in the evening and saw no one in the main room, Tian Run'e immediately entered her bedroom and looked at the pillows.

Sure enough, just as she expected, there were two big ones lying on the bed sheet.

The banknotes are a bit old, and there are blue ballpoint pen writing on them, so they must have passed through many owners.

After bending down to pick up the money, Tian Run'e told her husband who followed him: "A few days ago, Erbao said that he had chosen a suit of clothes and told me that he wanted to buy it for 16 yuan.

I was thinking that my brother and sister would need a lot of money to start school soon, but I didn’t have enough money, so I didn’t agree.”

At this point, she paused, and her eyes suddenly filled with tears, "Erbao once complained to me that all the female classmates in their class were beautifully dressed, but she was the worst dressed..."

As she talked, Tian Run'e couldn't talk any more. Her heart ached and she lay on her husband's shoulder, choking.

Li Jianguo held his wife with his left hand and gently patted her back with his right hand. While comforting his wife, he couldn't help himself, and the corners of his eyes became moist.

At this moment, he felt extremely uncomfortable, full of sadness, guilt, and secretly hating himself for being useless.

Not only did he let down his beautiful wife, who was exposed to the sun and rain and turned into a yellow-faced woman, but he also let down his three children, who were not well fed and clothed, and suffered along with him.
