17 -17: Overbearing Seizure

After enjoying a moment of affection with her beloved granddaughter, Ma Xiulian asked Zhao Mei with an unprecedentedly friendly tone, “Eldest daughter-in-law, what do you feel like having tonight?

Noodles or dumplings?”

Zhao Mei responded in a daze, “Either…either is fine.”

Ma Xiulian then made the decision, “Let’s have noodles then.

There’s still a bit of the meat your aunt brought back the other day left over.

I’ll make you a meaty noodle dish and add some green veggies.”

“Alright.”

Hit by the unexpected pleasant surprise, Zhao Mei was left dumbfounded until it was dinner time.

Seeing the bowl of hot, meaty noodles in front of her, she finally snapped back to reality.

This…this is noodles with meat!

Never having been treated this well before, Zhao Mei swallowed her saliva, her first instinct being to nervously glance at Ma Xiulian, who was holding her granddaughter.

Without her mother-in-law’s approval, she wouldn’t dare to touch such a luxury.

Figuring out her thoughts, Ma Xiulian looked disapprovingly at her and said, “What are you looking at me for?

Hurry up and eat your noodles before they go soggy and lose their taste.”

She wasn’t the evil mother-in-law who made life difficult for her daughters-in-law.

Although she did favor her sons and grandsons, she had never let her daughters-in-law and granddaughters go hungry.

Upon hearing her words, Zhao Mei began to gobble up the noodles hungrily.

When Li Chunhua saw Zhao Mei devouring her food so enthusiastically and then looked at her own bowl of sweet potato porridge, her eyes immediately filled with tears in self-pity.

The crib side had been fed with fine food and drinks by Ma Xiulian for more than a month, so going back to eating coarse grains seemed unpalatable.

Not only did the coarse food damage her throat, but it also lacked any succulent taste, making it incomparable to the meaty noodles Zhao Mei was eating.

So, as Li Chunhua ate, she began to cry, tears dropping uncontrollably.

But at the dinner table, no one paid attention to her.

Everyone was just engrossed in their meals, even her husband Chen Jianye pretended not to notice.

After all, in these times, everyone had limited food supplies.

If you ate too slowly and couldn’t get enough, you’d just have to go hungry until the next meal.

After crying for a while, Li Chunhua saw that no one was comforting her, and that most of the food on the table had visibly diminished.

So she forced herself to eat despite her grievances, but she was only able to eat until she was half full in the end.

Contrarily, Zhao Mei ate until she was full, with the rich taste of meat still lingering in her mouth.

But she was worried about her two daughters, so she cautiously asked Ma Xiulian, “Mom, can I give the noodle soup to Dani and Erni to drink?”

Although she had eaten all the noodles and meat, there was still a layer of oil floating on the soup, and there should still be some meat scraps left at the bottom of the bowl.

When Dani and Erni heard this, they both stared eagerly at their grandmother, swallowing their saliva continuously.

A little bit of noodle soup was nothing to Ma Xiulian, so she waved her hand and said, “Let them drink it.”

After all Li Chunhua had secretly fed meat to Xiaobao behind her back.

Since Xiaobao was young and couldn’t eat much, and he was her grandson, she just turned a blind eye.

Hearing this, Dani and Erni’s eyes lit up.

They immediately stared at the noodle soup, salivating, which caused Zhao Mei to feel a pang of heartache for a moment.

But in these times, isn’t every family’s daughter raised in a similar way?

There are even those who are reluctant to feed their daughters until they’re full because they see them as a waste of resources.

Thinking of this, Zhao Mei gratefully looked at her mother-in-law, then divided the noodle soup between her two daughters.

But as soon as the two girls had their first taste, Dabao and Erbao rudely snatched it away.

“All the good stuff is ours, you can’t drink it!”

They didn’t dare to take from the adults, but they were very domineering towards their sisters.

This was because the elders and adults in the family had told them more than once that all the good things in the family belonged to the grandsons, while the granddaughters were just an unwelcome expense.
