Quick Transmigration: Can This Kind of Scum Become the Chosen One?

Chapter 98 During the Famine, My Little Aunt Lived a Life of Luxury

"Second son's wife, is this how you teach your child? You, Lu Cuihua, Da Hu is my Jiang family's grandson, not your Lu family's. You even taught him to hit me? You've really gone too far."

Grandma Jiang wouldn't think it was her grandson's fault; she believed that all the blame lay with Lu Cuihua.

Da Hu is only three years old, what could he possibly know? It must have been that slut Lu Cuihua who instigated him.

This is leading her eldest grandson astray.

She also said that all the eggs were eaten by Da Hu.

It's likely that they all ended up in the Lu family's womb.

When the others returned home, they heard Old Mrs. Jiang cursing and crying coming from the kitchen.

The eldest son and his wife immediately ran into the kitchen.

Mother is probably scolding He'er and Miao'er again.

If it's just a few scoldings, it's fine, but I'm afraid my mother will hit me.

Old Man Jiang didn't care at all, but now that no one was fetching water for him to wash his face, he sat on the steps by the door, waiting for Old Woman Jiang to finish scolding people and come out to fetch him water.

Jiang Ertian didn't see his wife and son; they were probably in the kitchen.

So I walked towards the kitchen, hoping to catch a glimpse of the commotion.

The eldest son and his wife rushed into the kitchen and saw Old Mrs. Jiang grabbing Lu Cuihua and hitting her. The red handprints on Lu Cuihua's face were very obvious.

Is Mother disciplining her second son's wife today?

The eldest son and his wife looked at each other in bewilderment, but there was no sign of Jiang He or Jiang Miao in the kitchen.

The two left the kitchen. Since it wasn't He'er and Miao'er inside, they decided not to go near their mother.

As Jiang Ertian approached, he heard his wife crying.

Grandma Jiang dragged Lu Cuihua out.

"Eldest daughter-in-law, what are you standing here for? Are you waiting for the food to be ready by itself? Go inside and cook."

"Mom, I'll go cook right away." Zhao Jingui didn't know what was going on between her mother and her second son's wife, but since her mother asked her to cook, she would go and cook.

"Boss, is everything done? Have you chopped the firewood? Have you carried the water?"

"Mother, I'm going now." Jiang Dashu also turned around and went to chop firewood.

Jiang Ertian saw his mother hit his wife. This was the first time his mother had ever hit or scolded his wife since Dahu was born.

However, Jiang Ertian felt that his mother wouldn't beat or scold him for no reason.

Therefore, he did not go forward directly at this moment.

"Mother, what's wrong? What did Cuihua do wrong? Why are you so angry?"

"You should ask your good wife what kind of treacherous things she's done."

Jiang Ertian saw his son behind him and waved to him.

"Dahu, what did your mother do? Why is Grandma so angry?"

"Mother eats vegetables, throws them on the ground, milk feeds mother, mother cries, and plays with milk."

Da Hu ran to his father's side and told him what had just happened.

His words left Jiang Ertian even more confused.

"Mother, Mother, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, I will never do it again." Lu Cuihua's hair was pulled by Old Madam Jiang, and she felt as if her scalp was about to be ripped off.

"Tell me, how many eggs did you steal?"

"There really are only two, only two." Lu Cuihua swore that she was telling the truth.

Stealing eggs, Lu Cuihua actually stole eggs.

Everyone looked over in surprise.

While cooking in the kitchen, Zhao Jingui couldn't help but listen to the sounds outside.

Lu Cuihua is really something, daring to steal eggs, even though Old Lady Jiang keeps a close eye on her.

Zhao Jingui couldn't help but worry. If Old Lady Jiang found the bird eggs they had hidden, she might fly into a rage, given how angry she was today.

But He'er found the bird eggs, not took them from home, so even if she was angry, she shouldn't be as upset as she is now.

With Lu Cuihua here, Grandma Jiang definitely won't let her into the kitchen anymore, so the cooking will be her responsibility for the time being.

However, Grandma Jiang didn't trust her either; she would definitely keep an eye on her while she cooked.

I'll talk to He'er later and tell her to hide the bird egg for now.

While thinking about her own affairs, Zhao Jingui kept an eye on the situation outside.

Old Man Jiang also took it to heart when he heard about the stolen eggs.

He usually doesn't care about other things, but he can't ignore theft.

Today they steal eggs, tomorrow they'll steal money. With such a dishonest person in this family, sooner or later the whole family will be robbed clean.

In these famine years, instead of working together, the family is engaging in underhanded and dishonest activities. Isn't that just dragging the family down? They'll be torn apart.

"Second son's wife, did you really steal eggs?"

Old Jiang tapped the steps with his stick.

"Dad, I didn't mean it. I was just out of my mind. I saw that Da Hu didn't have any eggs to eat, so I hid two. I'll never do it again, I'll never do it again."

"Second brother, our Jiang family can't have someone who steals. What do you suggest we do?"

"Ertian, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong. I will never do it again, I will never do it again."

“Father, Cuihua, she...she knows she was wrong. Cuihua did it for Dahu. Dahu is still young and growing. Cuihua will never dare to do it again. If she does it again, I will divorce her. Please give her another chance.”

Jiang Ertian secretly pinched Da Hu.

Big Tiger burst into tears.

Jiang Ertian then pushed Da Hu towards Lu Cuihua.

Da Hu cried and wanted his mother to hold him, clinging to her tightly and refusing to let go.

Seeing the mother and son crying in each other's arms, Old Man Jiang frowned and snorted coldly.

Although Grandma Jiang takes care of most of the household affairs, Grandpa Jiang still has to make the decisions on such important matters.

Seeing Old Man Jiang's reaction, Old Lady Jiang knew that Lu Cuihua wouldn't be kicked out today.

But this slut dared to steal eggs, so this matter won't end so easily.

"Stop crying and wailing. If you have that energy, go work in the fields."

Starting tomorrow, I'll be fetching water from the fields.

"Mother, I understand. I'll go fetch water tomorrow."

"Go, wash those clothes." Old Mrs. Jiang saw the clothes by the well, which were originally meant for Zhao Jingui to wash when she came back, but now she ordered Lu Cuihua to do it.

Lu Cuihua hurriedly went to wash the clothes.

Now she has to keep a low profile and do whatever her mother says.

Otherwise she'll be kicked out, and if she is, what will happen to Da Hu?

If Ertian remarries, Dahu will have a stepmother.

She was going to be kicked out, and she had nowhere to go; her family would never take her in.

She absolutely cannot be kicked out.

Grandma Jiang's anger wasn't so easily appeased.

I fetched a basin of water for the old man.

I saw Jiang He and Jiang Miao carrying buckets of pig feed from the backyard.

"Milk, the pigs are fed."

"Hmph, don't you even know what time it is? The pig will starve to death if it doesn't eat soon. Feed it earlier next time. Go check on your aunt and see if she's awake and ready for dinner."

"Grandma, I understand." Jiang He and Jiang Miao went to their aunt's room.

"Is the food ready? Everyone's waiting to eat, what are you dawdling here for?" Grandma Jiang went to the kitchen.

"Mother, dinner is ready."

Everything else was ready; Zhao Jingui only cooked one dish, which was ready a long time ago.

Grandma Jiang always did the serving of rice herself; she wouldn't dare touch it.
