Chapter 56: Chapter 56 The Female Supporting Character Was Replaced Chapter 56: Chapter 56 The Female Supporting Character Was Replaced “Mom, Daya is cooking,” Zhao Tianxiang said as he returned with water, greeting Mrs. Zhao on her arrival and reminding her there was no need for her to cook.
“Mom, did you just come back from Laosan’s place? Didn’t they offer you breakfast?” Da Shu’s mother asked casually on her return from washing clothes, seeing that her mother-in-law had come from Laosan’s.
Mrs. Zhao’s impression of Da Shu’s mother was worsening.
She wondered if it was time to have Laoer’s family move out too?
She would talk to Grandpa.
“I did indeed have breakfast there. Laosan’s wife was really too polite. She made noodles and even poached an egg for me. I was stuffed all morning.”
As soon as she said this, everyone in the courtyard, adults and children alike, turned to look at Mrs. Zhao, especially Da Shu’s mother, whose face was incredulous.
Since when was Laosan’s wife so generous?
If she knew that Yun Xiaoxiao was even more generous, but her family did not get a share, nor did her children, would she be jumping eight feet high?
Mrs. Zhao glanced at Da Shu’s mother and saw her shocked expression, instantly feeling satisfied.
In the past, the female supporting character was more dramatic, but now the female supporting character had changed and was no longer causing drama.
Suddenly, without Da Shu’s mother to compare herself with, she seemed rash.
“Mom, I also want to eat noodles,” Xiao Shu whined, hugging his mother’s legs.
The family did have fine grains, but it wasn’t the holidays or New Year’s. Would they make noodles for the family to eat?
“If you want to eat noodles, go to your Little Aunt,” she said.
Xiao Shu shook his head, “I won’t go. Little Aunt hits my brother, I’m scared of being hit.”
Unlike Da Bao, who was only younger by a few months, Xiao Shu was also a troublemaker.
“Go to your grandma.”
Mrs. Zhao snorted coldly, “How come they never feed you at other times? The noodles at your Little Aunt’s place are sent by Da Bao’s Grandma and Grandpa. Tell your mom to take you to your Grandma’s place to eat noodles,” she said.
Mrs. Zhao was not one to indulge children.
She didn’t believe in favoring sons over daughters.
But Sister-in-law Zhao, having born a daughter on her first delivery, thought Mrs. Zhao would be like her own mother, who didn’t like daughters.
The second time, it was another daughter.
Because of that, and facing Da Shu’s mother, she felt inferior, especially since Da Shu’s mother had given birth to a son, Da Shu, feeling even more that her in-laws resented her for having another daughter.
When the third child was also a daughter, Da Shu’s mother became more sarcastic toward Sister-in-law Zhao.
But by that time, the new female supporting character had married into the Zhao family and had a son, causing quite a few arguments with Da Shu’s mother.
When the female supporting character was pregnant with Xiao Bao, Sister-in-law Zhao was pregnant again. She had given up hope, but unexpectedly, this baby was a boy, rejuvenating her spirit and her fighting spirit.
The moment Mrs. Zhao said this, Da Shu’s mother couldn’t stand it and picked up Xiao Shu and spanked him a few times.
Xiao Shu suddenly cried out loud.
Mrs. Zhao calmly watched the scene, saying nothing.
But Captain Zhao spoke up.
“Laoer, when Laosan gets back, we’re splitting the family.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Tianfu was stunned, looking incredulously at Captain Zhao, who was sitting in the main room.
What brought up splitting the family?
Especially Da Shu’s mother, who was shocked too. If the family split, she would have to do household chores and go to work. She definitely wouldn’t be able to manage.
“That’s settled then,” Captain Zhao said firmly.
The house was always in turmoil.
“Choose your own plot of land.”
This sentence was quickly whispered by Erya to Daya and Sister-in-law Zhao in the kitchen, bringing smiles to their faces.
