Shao Meizhi thought that if she threatened them, Yang Xiaoni and Qiao Xuan would stuff her with good food as a bribe. But they, unexpectedly, countered her.
When done with work, Qiao Xuan looked at Shao Meizhi. "Cousin, the second and third sections of the family kept forcing us to work for you guys. Do you think that we are the same as before?
"That is history now. Such behavior will never happen again! It already stopped half a year ago. Second and Third Uncles are already used to this change, and I believe that you should get used to this too. Stop acting as if you are the host of this house! No one buys that any more!"
"That is not what happens in any house in the village. If you are not convinced, just try it out!"
Yang Xiaoni snorted. "Fifth Sister-in-law is right!"
As the claypot rice was almost ready, she just could not wait and said impatiently, "Just leave now, we can talk about this tomorrow, we are ready to eat dinner soon!"
Shao Meizhi was starving but she could not stand what Yang Xiaoni and Qiao Xuan said to her. She threw a fierce glare at them, and grabbed Shao Xiaozhi away.
Shao Xiaoqi followed up and shut the door.
Shao Xiaozhi licked her lips. "Sister, I really want to eat that smoked sausage rice, it smells so good!"
Shao Meizhi could not help but swallow her saliva. With teeth clenched, she said, "We can go home now, and tell Eldest Uncle tomorrow. She will have to make the food for us!"
Shao Xiaozhi eyes sparkled. "Yeah, you are so smart, Sister, haha!"
Shao Meizhi was panicking. What Qiao Xuan said to her at last was making her feel anxious. She had no way to counter that.
It was not a regular practice in the village. But Eldest Uncle promised to take care of his brothers, and that he would definitely help if his brothers needed him.
That was what had been happening all these years.
Why did they stop helping them?
Her mother said that things changed after the Fifth Sister-in-law got married. Was she so capable?
Shao Meizhi did not believe that.
But she thought of her words, and found this woman hard to deal with…
"Xiaozhi, tell me about Ms. Qiao…"
The two sisters did not look that well when they returned home.
Shao Xiaozhi kept telling Ms. Ma that she wanted to eat smoked sausage rice. Ms. Ma did not know what that was, so she ignored her and asked Shao Meizhi instead. "How did it go? Ms. Qiao is really arrogant, isn't she? That is how she is like! We are already used to it. You should never get annoyed by her!"
Shao Meizhi became even angrier. "She isn't the only one. Ms. Yang isn't obedient either, and Qi too. He has turned very unruly! Same goes for my cousin. He even pretended as if I were not around. He did not even show up…"
In fact, Shao Yunduan was studying in his yard and had no idea that she had been there.
Shao Xiaoqi had wanted to inform him but was stopped by Qiao Xuan.
Hearing Shao Meizhi's words, Ms. Ma sneered. "They are rich now, and you have seen that too. Didn't you see their big house? They are looking down at us, totally!'
Unconvinced, Shao Meizhi bit her lips. "So, the Eldest Uncle has left us alone?
Ms. Ma sneered and sounded furious. "No need to mention him.. He makes empty promises, but never puts them into practice!"
