When Qiao Changshun heard this, he was troubled.
He had gone to town today and bought two grass carps and a pile of chicken feet. They had eaten the two grass carps for lunch and the chicken feet were still raw, just defrosted.
Three days ago, he had gone to town and bought big bones, pork intestines, pork belly, and pigs’ feet. But it had been raining these last few days, and his family of three had eaten all of these up.
“Mom, we have steamed buns but no fatty meat,” he answered honestly.
“Your family is as rich as a silver mine, and now when your father and 1 have come, you can’t even bear to share some fatty meat with me?!” The matriarch of the Sun family slanted her eyes, her face ferocious, her tone rude. “You unfilial son, I have spoiled you in vain before!”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai rolled her eyes.
She had previously exposed the so-called affection of the matriarch of the Sun family in front of everyone, but who knew that she would still have the face to bring it up again. A shameless person is really invincible.
“No, we don’t have any fatty meat at home at the moment, only steamed buns,” Qiao Changshun explained with his head down.
“Then what does your family have at the moment!” The matriarch of the Sun family demanded.
“Uh… just the steamed buns.”
For someone who used to struggle with regular meals, leftovers?
Oh no, there’s no such thing in his life.
These days, the quality of their meals had improved a lot, so he was eating more. Unless Qiao Xiaomai really made too much, his family did not have leftovers.
Conveniently, the lunch was boiled fish. He and Qiao Dami, who had never tasted this delicious food before, ate till their stomachs were round. Six jin of fish meat, a large pot full, the three of them ate it clean, even wiping the bottom of the pot clean with the steamed buns, leaving no traces of oil.
“You ungrateful son, hurry up and prepare it for me! I want to eat the pork and glass noodles 1 saw last time,” the matriarch of the Sun family scolded.
“We don’t have any pork at home.”
“Then go buy some from the Jiang family!” The matriarch of the Sun family spurted out her words, seeing Qiao Dami standing next to her without a word, she ordered, “Dami, go bring me a bowl of water.”
She had run all the way and was dying of thirst!
Qiao Changshun looked helplessly at Qiao Xiaomai. The Jiang family slaughtered pigs every day, the majority of which were carted off to sell in town. Nevertheless, they kept some at home for the villagers to buy.
But since Zhuang Liihe had previously rejected the proposal of Jiang Zhuangzhuang, buying meat there right now…
It was inconvenient!
“What are you standing around for? Go!” Seeing the three of them standing still, the matriarch of the Sun family was even more irritable.
Qiao Xiaomai patted Qiao Dami’s head, and Qiao Dami ran home. After a while, she came out with a bowl of water.
The matriarch of the Sun family took it and gulped it down, then glared at Qiao Changshun, “Heat an egg with hot water, add cane sugar!”
The last time she had come, she had seen everything that was in the Qiao family’s kitchen.
Qiao Changshun rubbed his hands nervously, still looking at Qiao Xiaomai.
Qiao Xiaomai raised an eyebrow, the matriarch of the Sun family used to snatch whatever she could when she visited before, but now she only wanted food. Had she changed her strategy?
Thinking of this, she spoke up, “We’ll pack some steamed buns for you, along with a few chicken feet and eggs. You go back home and make yourself something, Grandma. My Dad and 1 are pretty busy.”
Honestly, given their situation, she didn’t mind giving the matriarch of the Sun family some food.
Who could change the fact that she was her grandmother?
Who could change the fact that, among the Qiao brothers, her family was the richest right now?
The richest one naturally has to offer the most to respect their elders. Back in her previous life, whenever her despicable dad returned to his hometown, he would bring all sorts of large and small packages to fill the trunk of the car, pushing money on them as if they were desperate for it. He took more gifts home than his brothers combined.
She knew this principle.
But when it came to the matriarch of the Sun family, it only applied to food. She wouldn’t give her anything that could be sold for money.
The matriarch of the Sun family had changed her tactics, but she wasn’t dumb either..
