Chapter 11441

"Dad, there are a lot of steamed dumplings. There's a basket of big ones. Just leave two or three for Liangliang. He won't eat more than that."

While Liu Jinchuan was talking, her hands were already busy. She picked up a bowl and swiftly filled it with the steamed dumplings that had just come out of the pot. There were only three or five dumplings left in the steamer.

Not only that, Liu Jinchuan scooped two chopsticks of pickled mustard greens and pork intestines and put them on the dumplings, and poked out the two pieces of lean meat hidden in the middle of the pork elbow with chopsticks and put them in the dumpling bowl together.

In this way, the amount of food in the bowl is very substantial, piled up like a small hill.

"That's enough, you can't take any more food. If you do, we won't have anything to eat." Yang Huaming stood at the kitchen door and waved his hands.

"Okay, I'll get an empty bowl to cover it so it won't get cold when the wind blows on the way."

Soon, Liu Jinchuan got everything ready and carefully handed the heavy bowl with an upside-down empty bowl as a lid to Yang Huaming.

Yang Huaming weighed it and felt extremely satisfied. A pleased yet somewhat embarrassed smile appeared on his face.

"Giving it all to her, this is too..."

"Dad, what are you talking about? No matter what, she is the mother of Kang Xiaozi and me. She is a family member." Liu Jinchuan said quickly.

Kang Xiaozi remained silent.

Yang Huaming was in a good mood at the moment and didn't pay any attention to Kang Xiaozi's strange behavior. He picked up the bowl, turned around and disappeared into the night.

Liu Jinchuan withdrew her gaze and continued to crack eggs to make fried rice. She caught a glimpse of Kang Xiaozi's gloomy face out of the corner of her eye and was stunned.

"Liangliang's dad, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?" she asked.

Kang Xiaozi frowned and said, "I was thinking, since my father is still worried about my mother and is afraid that she will starve to death, why is it that he still refuses to let my mother out after half a month?"

Regarding this question...Liu Jinchuan was also stuck in confusion.

"In the first few days after my mother was locked up, I could really feel my father's anger," Kang Xiaozi recalled. "During that period, my aunt was the one who brought her food. She only had two meals a day. My father didn't allow us to visit her or bring her food. The food he brought to my mother was leftovers from home. It was obvious that he was punishing her."

Liu Jinchuan listened silently, not paying attention to the work in her hands.

All these right and wrongs were matters between her father-in-law and Kang Xiaozi. As a young wife without even a proper family, she had no confidence or qualifications to comment on all this.

Kang Xiaozi continued, "During this period of time, my father's attitude towards my mother has obviously changed."

"Not only did we stop feeding her leftovers, but we also gave her three meals a day instead of two. Look, today, when we came back from town late, my father looked so distracted. He must be worried that my mother would starve!"

Hearing this, Liu Jinchuan's lips unconsciously curled up into a smile and she nodded slightly, but she said in her heart that her father-in-law was not only worried that her mother-in-law would be hungry, but also worried that she would not eat well. The bowl of rice just now was the best proof.

"Dad Liangliang, this is a matter between my parents-in-law and I, as a younger generation, won't say much."

"The egg fried rice will be ready soon. I'll serve you a bowl. Eat first while I go check on Liang Liang."

……

In the west room of the old house, a soybean oil lamp was lit on the table. The light was dim, and it could barely illuminate Liu, who was eating voraciously beside the table.

There was darkness behind Liu. Yang Huaming sat in the darkness behind Liu, looking at the woman's back and smoking his pipe in silence.

Liu was starving before, especially when this bowl of rich food was placed in front of her, Liu didn't care about anything else, she grabbed it, not even bothering to use chopsticks, and ate it directly with her hands. Yang Huaming was too lazy to say anything to her. In his eyes, this woman was now a pitiful person!

Because he had made up his mind to let her stay in this house, but he himself couldn't say how long.

But he would renovate the house, buy some new things in it, and bring her delicious food and drinks every day.

But Yang Huaming was not going to give her freedom!

As for the reason, it is also very simple. This woman has been locked in this room for more than half a month, but she is still stubborn and arrogant, without saying a single soft word. She still refuses to admit her mistake of secretly hiding the Tai Sui meat last time.

This made Yang Huaming extremely disappointed. If she had admitted her mistake and promised not to do stupid things again next time, he would have found an excuse for his soft-heartedness.

But this woman is so stubborn that she insists that the east wind will prevail over the west wind. This makes people speechless. They can only keep her locked up until the day when her edges are completely worn away...

When Liu was full, she burped loudly, leaned back on the chair, touched her round belly with her hand, and looked very satisfied and savoring the meal.

Yang Huaming stood up and put the pot of wine he brought on the table.

When Liu saw the wine, her eyes lit up. She looked up at Yang Huaming, who was standing beside her with a stern face, and said, "What do you mean, Yang Laosi? Have you figured it out? Do you know you were wrong? Are you here to bring some wine to apologize to me?"

When Yang Huaming heard Liu's words of taking the initiative, his eyelids twitched.

This woman interrupted what he wanted to say. Who should know the fault? Doesn't she have any idea?

"Stop talking nonsense. This is the full-month wine celebration for Mei'er's children. Mei'er is being polite. Seeing that your sister can make it, she insisted that I bring you a pot of wine to share in the good fortune!" Yang Huaming explained truthfully.

Liu grabbed the wine pot and poured the wine directly into the bowl that had been used to hold the dumplings. She lowered her head and sniffed, "Ha, it's still mulberry wine, a good wine that I could only drink during the Chinese New Year. Mei'er is still a little conscientious this time!"

Liu picked up the bowl and drank the wine in big gulps.

Yang Huaming was shocked when he saw her pouring the wine. He quickly reached out his hand to try to take the wine bowl from her: "Are you crazy, woman? How can you drink like this? You'll get drunk!"

Liu pushed Yang Huaming away, spat at him, picked up the bowl, squinted her eyes, and said through gritted teeth: "You don't need to be so sympathetic. Whether I'm drunk or not is my business. Why do you care?"

She lifted the bowl, tilted her head back, and gulped down the mulberry wine in one breath.

She wiped her mouth, burped, looked around, and put on a sarcastic smile on her face.

"I am a human being, not a beast."

"You, Yang Laosi, locked me up in this cage and told me not to get drunk? Haha, I'd rather die drunk, become a puddle of mud, or become a fool than live a life of a beast in this darkness!"

After saying that, Liu poured herself a large bowl of mulberry wine.

Yang Huaming stared at Liu with cold disappointment, and said word by word in a deep voice: "Is it so difficult for me to ask you to say that you are wrong?"

"Back then, you had an affair with my eldest brother and had Kang boy. From that time on, you owed me a wrong!"

Liu's back stiffened instantly, her eyes widened and she stared at Yang Huaming, her eyes turning red.

"What about you?" She retorted, "You went to Yuncheng Old Yang's family to recognize your relatives, and you kidnapped Xiaojuan, the beautiful girl from their family!"

"In those years, we lived in the east room and the west room, door to door!"

"Have you ever thought about how I feel? In the village, in front of my relatives, I can't hold my head up high. I have no face to live as a human being!"
