Chapter 6

Widow Xie gets up early in the morning. Even if Wang Xiushu has already made breakfast and is waiting, looking at Wang Xiushu, her eyes are not eyes and her nose is not nose.

Just see willing to wangxiushu has not yet fallen out of the still in the heat of children's face water will be difficult.

Wang Xiushu is all too deaf, silent in the kitchen ready to warm up with some hot porridge.

Widow Xie is a mean person. It was only after Wang Xiushu's death that she could understand it.

Once upon a time, widow Xie did not allow her to use hot water. She said it was firewood. In order to please her mother-in-law, Wang Xiushu washed her face with cold water in the cold winter.

But now Wang Xiushu can see it clearly. Instead, she thinks it's funny that she used to tolerate everything in the past. Wang Xiushu picked up all the firewood from the Xie family, so what if she burned some hot water to wash?

Widow Xie didn't know that Wang Xiushu's heart was already winding. She thought about it for a few times and looked at Wang Xiushu in the kitchen with a little disgust. She thought that Wang Xiushu was cowardly and didn't dare to speak.

Wang Xiushu used breakfast first, but Xie Yuxiang hasn't got up yet. In the past, widow Xie used it first when she made breakfast. Wang Xiushu didn't eat it together until Xie Yuxiang got up.

But widow Xie only allowed her to cook two handfuls of brown rice every day. Widow Xie was a big eater. She had already eaten more than half of the rice. When Xie Yuxiang got a bowl, Wang Xiushu could eat only half of the rice. How could she have enough to eat.

"Sister in law, there is no hot water! Didn't you boil water today? Don't you know that I always use hot water when I get up at this time of day? "

After eating porridge, Wang Xiushu went back to the room first. After a while, Xie Yuxiang's shrill voice came from outside.

Wang Xiushu pauses, but doesn't say a word. She goes on with her sewing work. As expected, it's only a few words. Wang Xiushu listens to the gradual steps outside to express her opinions.

The visitor should be very angry. He pushed the door fiercely. The cold wind came in and Wang Xiushu shrank her neck. It was so cold!

"Little sister, you're up. Breakfast is warming in the pot. Go and eat it. It's cold when you look back carefully."

Wang Xiushu raised her eyes and glanced at Xie Yuxiang, who was standing at the door with dissatisfaction. She said to Xie Yuxiang innocently and naturally.

"Sister in law, you didn't boil water today?"

Xie Yuxiang glanced at Wang Xiushu's half worn clothes, which were being mended. A trace of disgust flashed in her eyes, but she naturally told her, "when can't you sew your broken clothes? Why do you take the time to do it early in the morning? Go to the kitchen and make a hot pot of water. I haven't combed my hair yet! "

Xu is used to bullying, or Xie Yuxiang never treats Wang Xiushu as a married sister-in-law. After that, he turns back to the house without Wang Xiushu's consent.

Wang Xiushu glanced at the door of the house which was pushed open by Xie Yuxiang, put down her work, got up, went to the front of the door, covered the two doors, then went back to sit down, picked up her clothes and continued to mend.

Where did Xie Yuxiang not comb her hair? It was just an excuse to deal with Wang Xiushu. She didn't retreat into the room and waited for a quarter of an hour to come out slowly. When she came to the kitchen, she saw that Wang Xiushu hadn't cooked the water, and her temper came up. She angrily pushed Wang Xiushu's door.

This time, Xie Yuxiang was angry. The door of the house was pushed by her with a dull sound.

Wang Xiushu is a faint look up, Xie Yuxiang, "little sister, close the door, the wind outside strange frozen people."

Xie Yuxiang was annoyed by Wang Xiushu's plain and light appearance, and her eyes turned, "sister-in-law, do you know how to freeze people outside? I told you to boil water. Why don't you? Don't you want the cold water to freeze me to death! "

"What are you talking about, little sister?" Wang Xiushu was surprised. "How can I think that? I also want to boil water in the morning, but my mother said that the well water can be used, so don't waste firewood to boil water. You know my mother's temperament, how dare I disobey her!" Wang Xiushu's face was full of tears.

"You Xie Yuxiang was embarrassed. "You can't use it. I use warm water every day. You don't know. Just burn my hot water."

Can't help exposing your emotions?

When Wang Xiushu heard this, she pursed a light radian at the corner of her mouth, and her tone was light and slow: "little sister, the sister-in-law you just said doesn't like to listen to me. Why am I the same as you? You can use hot water, but I need cold water? Don't you take me as a family? Or look down on me? "

"You

Xie Yuxiang became angry and angry, "you're talking nonsense! I just told you to burn hot water. How can I talk so much! It's just that you don't want to boil water for me. Why should you take your mother to prevaricate me? "

Wang Xiushu, who usually obeys her advice, suddenly gives her no face today. Xie Yuxiang is very embarrassed.

Hard to say and then shake hands away, want to wait for the widow to return, good life to Wang Xiushu on an eyedrop, not afraid of Wang Xiushu no good fruit to eat.

Wang Xiushu is in the room, listening to the big news from the kitchen outside. She estimates that Xie Yuxiang has made a fire by herself. It seems that she has yelled a few more words, and says that Wang Xiushu didn't leave her breakfast.

At noon, Wang Xiushu came out of the house to cook lunch. Soon after, the widow came back from outside. There was no work in the fields at the end of the month. This was the most leisure time of the year for the country people. The widow had breakfast early and went to the door.

"Niang, I'm eating a lot today. Go and see if the lunch is cooked. I'm so hungry. I haven't had breakfast."

Wang Xiushu is making a fire to cook, but listening to what Xie Yuxiang and widow Xie are talking about outside, she deliberately raises her voice.

Xie widow really took Xie Yuxiang's words, "how did not eat well?"

There is a son and a daughter in the Xie family. Xie Zurong is a scholar and will take the imperial examination in the future. Widow Xie places all her hopes on Xie Zurong.

Xie Yuxiang's daughter is a favorite. She thinks that after Xie Zurong won the first place in the exam, Xie Yuxiang's younger sister is also the wife of the official family, and she just takes Xie Yuxiang as a young lady.

"I didn't cook enough for breakfast!" Xie Yuxiang complained, "mother, what do you do in the morning that you don't allow my sister-in-law to burn hot water for me? I use cold water to scrub my hands. My hands are still red when they are frozen! "

"How can you burn less? When I eat it in the morning, I see that it's not less than a few days ago! " Widow Xie's voice is much sharper than Xie Yuxiang's. she is not happy to look at Wang Xiushu and think of the way widow Xie said this.

"I'll eat it in the morning, because my mother didn't pay attention to it today. If my younger sister doesn't eat well, I'll cook more tomorrow."

Wang Xiushu came out of the kitchen with steaming vegetables in her hand. She glanced at the mother and daughter and said faintly, "dinner is ready, little sister. You don't mean you're hungry. You can eat."

After Wang Xiushu said that, she took the dishes and went to the main hall. Most of the farmers eat in the kitchen, but Xie's kitchen was built later. The narrow space can't hold a table, so she always eats in the hall. In summer, she uses it in the yard, which is cool.
