After the marriage, the strong beauty became rich and busy raising children

Chapter 125 Resentment

Guan Lei never thought that pulling a piece of wheat straw would be so difficult.

It's like it's sealed with cement.

She pulled for a long time and was sweating profusely, but all she pulled out were some broken grass.

Xie Guifang, who was also pulling wheat straw, couldn't bear to watch it anymore and walked over.

Xie Guifang is Zhao Yang's second aunt.

Because of the issue of supporting Zhao Yang's grandparents, she and Feng Zhuanxia had a conflict, and the two families did not interact with each other on weekdays.

Guan Lei was not aware of the conflicts between her sisters-in-law, and they would just say hello when they met each other.

Xie Guifang pulled off the rubber band, put it in her mouth, combed her hair with her fingers, tied the rubber band again, and then bent down to pull the wheat straw.

With just a few pulls, he pulled out a pile of wheat straw.

She pulled over the backpack and planned to fill it with wheat straw for Guan Lei.

Guan Lei quickly said, "It's too much trouble for Second Aunt, I'll do it."

"It's okay." Xie Guifang stuffed the straw into the backpack swiftly. "These are all old straws. They have been there for a long time. You really can't pull them out without some strength."

Guan Lei nodded and said, "Before, it was my mother who came to talk. This is my first time here."

Xie Guifang smiled disdainfully, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and said, "Then why didn't she come today?"

"She wants to sew a quilt for Zhao Lan."

Xie Guifang nodded and said, "That's right. It's not easy for an old lady to get married, so she should make more preparations."

She looked at Guan Lei and suddenly lowered her voice and said, "You've been married for a while. What do you think of their family?"

Guan Lei didn't know why Xie Guifang asked this, so she said, "It's fine, especially my mother, she always supports me."

Xie Guifang laughed as if she had heard a joke and said, "Smiling tiger."

"Ok?"

"It's nothing. Auntie sees that you are young and don't know how to judge people, so I'm kindly giving you some advice. Zhao Yang's mother is a very sinister person, so you should be more careful."

Guan Lei's heart skipped a beat. She remembered that in her previous life, her sister always said that her mother-in-law was a very nice person!

Moreover, she has been married for so long, and her mother-in-law only blames her occasionally, but her heart is always good.

She originally wanted to ask Xie Guifang not to sow discord, but when she thought about the fact that someone had helped her pull the straw, she smiled and said nothing.

"You should go back soon. If you go late, you will be scolded again."

Guan Lei returned home carrying the wheat straw, and Zhao Hongcai had indeed returned. He was standing on the steps of the main house and was shaking the mud off his shoes.

"Dad, are you back?"

He raised his head and glanced at Guan Lei, then said in a muffled voice, "What time is it now? Why haven't you started cooking yet?"

"The thermos is out of water. I'm going to boil some water."

"By the time you finished boiling the water, the day lily had gone cold." Zhao Hongcai said unhappily, "I worked all morning, just waiting to come home and eat something hot, but you sit at home and can't even cook a meal."

Guan Lei said angrily: "What if there is no hot water at home? We have to knead the dough."

"Why don't you go to someone's house and borrow a bowl first? Why do you have to dilly-dally like this?"

Feng Zhuanxia came out with a pair of big scissors in her hand.

"Oh, it's late, it's not a big deal. Leilei wasn't at home all morning. She went to the clinic."

As she said this, she winked at Zhao Hongcai.

Zhao Hongcai didn't say anything else. He threw down his shoes and walked into the house barefoot.

Guan Lei was furious. She poured most of the water into the pot, then stuffed wheat straw into the stove and lit half a box of matches to vent her anger.

You must be very hungry, right? She insisted on dawdling.

She didn't wash the vegetables either. She just squatted on a small stool and stared at the fire.

After a while, thick smoke came out from the stove and the edge of the pot.

more and more.

Guan Lei choked and burst into tears.

She hung up the door curtain and opened the window.

Feng Zhuanxia rushed to the kitchen door after seeing the smoke and shouted, "Why are there so many cigarettes? Did you clean out the ashes?"

Still need to collect ashes?

Guan Lei shook her head.

"Hey, check before you light the fire. If there's a lot of ash, get rid of it first." Feng Zhuanxia picked up a stick of firewood from the ground, stuffed it into the stove and poked it a few times. "Why did you put so much firewood? Look, the whole stove is full. Not only are you wasting firewood, but you can't even light the fire."

Feng Zhuanxia pulled out a few handfuls of wheat straw, threw them on the ground, stamped out the sparks, and continued, "Didn't your mother teach you anything?"

Guan Lei didn't say anything.

"Okay, I'll watch the fire. The water should be warm now. You can mix the dough first."

Guan Lei agreed, lifted the lid of the pot and scooped out a bowl of water.

This time, she didn't forget to add alkaline noodles.

Feng Zhuanxia was watching the fire while peeling cucumbers deftly and said, "You need to practice your cooking speed. Well, you are lucky to have someone to help you cook. When I was young, they hadn't separated yet, and I cooked for the whole family by myself. At that time, there were no noodle machines, so I rolled everything by hand."

Guan Lei thought of Xie Guifang and asked, "Mom, was Second Aunt married by then?"

"pass."

"Then she won't help you?"

"Humph, with her pig-like appearance, do you think she is someone who can help? Besides, that old witch is very partial to her and won't let her enter the kitchen at all."

When talking about the past, Feng Zhuanxia seemed to have a lot of resentment.

Guan Lei really wanted to know what was going on, so she took the opportunity to ask, "Mom, you're not lying to me, are you? You're so capable, how could grandma be partial to her?"

Feng Zhuanxia sneered and said, "Why would I lie to you? No matter how capable I am, what's the use? Can I compare to someone else's blood relationship?"

Guan Lei was stunned: "Blood relationship?"

"That Xie Guifang is the niece of that old witch."

It turned out to be the case.

Feng Zhuanxia put another handful of straw into the stove and said angrily, "When she was able to move, her eyes were in the sky. Now that she is paralyzed on the kang, she remembers me and asks me to take care of her excrement and urine. Do you think I, Feng Zhuanxia, ​​am a fool?"

"Has grandma always been at Second Aunt's house after the family split up?"

"Isn't it? How can we tell the difference between aunt and niece?"

The water boiled and Feng Zhuanxia lifted the lid of the pot.

"Oh, why are you boiling so much water? There are only three thermoses at home, how can they hold so much!"

Guan Lei thought of a solution in a hurry: "I thought of saving some as cold boiled water. Dad will be thirsty when he comes back from work. I will mix some with it so that he won't have to wait for so long."

Feng Zhuanxia filled the thermos with water and continued, "I was so angry that I trembled all over when I thought about it. Xiaolan was only six months old at that time.

The wheat grew well that year. The grains were starting to fall to the ground, and your dad couldn't harvest all of it by himself.

I begged the old witch to help me look after the child, but she refused. In the end, I carried Xiaolan on my back to harvest wheat.

Tell me, who has a more miserable life than me? "

"Why doesn't grandma look at it?"

"Why else? I thought I would be the one to take care of her when she got old. The old witch was so beautiful back then. She would gossip with people in the village every day with a broken fan. But she didn't know that she couldn't rely on her niece at all."
