When they arrived at Wen's house, Daya pointed to the wild vegetables in the basket and said to Mei Huiniang: "Second aunt, these vegetables are tender and delicious. Why don't you take some back for cousin Jin Yan to eat?"
After finishing speaking, Wen Erya said: "You are the only one who treats these weeds as treasures. Second Aunt will not give such things to her daughter..."
"Give it to me, just a small handful, thank you Daya." Mei Huiniang said.
Daya happily gave some of the freshest ones to Mei Huiniang, and Wen Erya's face turned green after being ignored again.
After Mei Huiniang left, she immediately scolded: "You don't know what life is like for the second wife, so I want you to die!"
Da Ya said: "But the second aunt gave me snacks..."
"She just gave it to you to eat? Isn't it cheap?"
After saying this, Da Ya showed a hurt look on her face.
For a moment everything fell silent.
Erya didn't know what she thought of, and said quickly: "I also care about you and do it for your own good. In the future, if you don't take anything from anyone, you won't be afraid of her being poisoned!"
Da Ya lowered her head and retorted: "Second aunt is kind-hearted and will not harm others."
When she went into the mountains to look for wild vegetables and was bitten by a snake, her family said there was no way she could be saved and they were reluctant to waste money on her. It was her second aunt who paid the doctor to save her life.
"It's hard to say, you know people, you know faces, but you don't know hearts!" Wen Erya said.
"Yeah?"
When Mei Huiniang's voice came, Wen Erya was so frightened that her face changed, while Da Ya looked at Mei Huiniang in a panic, almost crying.
Unexpectedly, Mei Huiniang heard what she said, and Erya immediately said: "Second aunt, I'm not talking about you, it's my eldest sister who is too honest. I was afraid that she would be deceived in the future, so I reminded her."
Mei Huiniang looked at her for a long time.
Cold sweat broke out on Wen Erya's back.
At this time, Mei Huiniang said: "Don't be nervous, I didn't misunderstand you. I know you have been cautious since you were a child, so I have never given you anything casually, and I will never give it to you in the future. As long as you see me giving something to your sister, Just don’t feel it’s unfair.”
Why?
This is unfair!
Wen Erya's eyes were filled with dissatisfaction.
The eldest sister is so stupid, why should she be nice to her?
But Mei Huiniang didn't want to talk to her too much. She gave Wen Daya a few fruits in her hand and said, "Daya, are you afraid that I will poison you?"
Wen Daya shook her head, said "Thank you, second aunt", took the fruit and ate it.
Mei Huiniang smiled and said, "That's good, let's go back."
Wen Daya left.
Mei Huiniang also entered the house.
Wen Erya was left so angry that she stomped her feet and cursed her mother. Then she was beaten by Mr. Wang who came to eavesdrop.
…
As soon as Mei Huiniang came home, she immediately kicked her son out of the kitchen.
She doesn't have the notion that scholars can't cook.
But her son rarely cooks, and his cooking skills are only at the level of "edible". She is worried that eating the food cooked by her son will worsen her daughter's condition.
Wen Jinyang: "..."
He looked at Jin Yan suspiciously, with the words "Is this my mother" clearly written on his expression?
Jin Yan laughed so hard that he fell aside.
After a while, she gloated and said, "I don't know if you are my biological mother or not. Anyway, you are my biological mother!"
Wen Jinyang laughed angrily, "You don't know? Who keeps holding grudges, saying that I am not good as a brother, and always kicking you when you were in your mother's womb?"
When Yan Yan said this, they all thought she was joking, but she said it very seriously, as if it was true.
As a result, after so many years of grudges, he suddenly stopped admitting them?
Jin Yan thought for a moment, "Really? I think I did say this, but even if we were born together, I can't say that you are my mother's child..."
"What nonsense are you talking about, little bastard!"
Although Mei Huiniang did not completely inherit the lion's roar from her mother Zhang, this roar should not be underestimated.
The brother and sister were still fine, and the people in the first and third bedrooms all craned their necks to wait to hear what happened.
But after a long time, there was no movement.
After discovering that Mei Huiniang heard it, Jin Yan immediately coaxed her a few words. She had a sweet mouth, and after a while Mei Huiniang was coaxed into forgetfulness by her.
While eating, Jin Yan asked Mei Huiniang, "Mom, why are you back tonight? Grandma's feet are not healed yet. Do they know about my illness?"
Mei Huiniang nodded, "Your grandmother was very anxious when she heard the news. If I don't come back, she will have to drag her injured leg to see you."
"Grandma's temperament means that she always does what she says." Jin Yan said.
Mei Huiniang glanced at Jin Yan and said, "No matter how big or small you are."
Jin Yan smiled flatteringly, "I just say this in front of you and brother, but don't tell others."
Mei Huiniang scooped up another bowl of lean meat porridge for her, "Eat it quickly, your grandpa left it specially. If others wanted to buy it, he didn't sell it, so he kept it for you to replenish your body."
Mei Da and Zhang had a daughter, Mei Huiniang, who loved the house as much as they loved the birds, and they loved their grandchildren to the core.
Jin Yan and his brother also remember the love of their elders.
After dinner, Mei Huiniang went to wash the dishes.
By the time she finished cleaning up the kitchen, the sky was completely dark.
The family talked for a while and then fell asleep.
Early the next morning, before Jin Yan got up, he heard something noisy outside.
She stood up and listened for a while, and then she heard that Wen Ziran had been injured yesterday and his wound was inflamed. Now he had a fever, and the people in the main room were arguing about whether to call a doctor for Wen Ziran.
At this time, Mei Huiniang came in with face wash.
"Get up, wash your face, eat some snacks, and drink the medicine." Mei Huiniang said.
Jin Yan nodded obediently.
When she finished washing her face, the quarrel outside became louder because the third room also joined in.
Wen Ziran had to pay for a doctor when he had a fever, which made the third room very dissatisfied.
After all, when Wen Daya was poisoned, Dafang's family claimed that their family was not rich and had no money to hire a doctor.
Now it was their turn, and their bodies finally ached.
"What are you listening to? Children, don't worry about that. Let them make noise." Mei Huiniang said.
Jin Yan: "I'm thinking that maybe Yang will come to beg you soon. Don't forget that you saved Daya before."
Mei Huiniang said: "No way. A person with such a good face like the Yang family always says that she is a pure and scholarly family. She is very noble. She will never bow to me, a butcher's daughter."
Jin Yan shook his head, "That's not necessarily the case. For today's big families, face is not as important as money."
In the past, with daddy's support and care, the big family didn't have to worry about money.
But since she and her brother were born, all her father has given to the eldest son is money as a filial piety to the two old people, and it has been returned to the old people.
The noble clear people in the big house are not going to make money out of thin air.
Now that there is an opportunity to ask for money, they will naturally not let it go.
Mei Huiniang thought it was impossible, but she felt that what Jin Yan said was very reasonable. At this moment, Yang's voice sounded outside the door.
