The female supporting role of the system wants to counterattack

Chapter 9 What About the Mushrooms Picked?

After choosing among the seven pictures for a while, Ruan Mengmeng finally chose lipstick.

Seeing Ruan Mengmeng's selection, the system clicked the buy button and bought the lipstick for Ruan Mengmeng.

After buying the lipstick, the light curtain disappeared, and in the next moment, three unopened lipsticks flew in front of Ruan Mengmeng.

At the same time, the system's voice sounded, "Congratulations to the owner for the successful purchase, spending 99 cloud coins."

After Ruan Mengmeng reached out to take the lipstick, she squinted her eyes, "Why are there three lipsticks?"

She thought there were as many as there were on the picture.

"The picture only shows what it is, not the quantity. The mille-feuille that the owner saw just now has hundreds of pieces."

Hundreds of mille-feuilles... It costs a lot of money to sell. She thought there was only one, so she chose a lipstick for a long time. After all, comparing the seven pictures, the lipstick seemed to be the most cost-effective.

After changing everything, Ruan Mengmeng didn't think much about it. She stuffed the lipstick into her clothes and went home along the same route.

Seeing her coming home, Liu He, who had been worrying all day, immediately greeted her and said, "Jiaohua, where have you been all day? Where did you have lunch? Why do you go out in this weather?"

"I..." She was very anxious when she went out in the morning, so she didn't tell Liu He in detail what she was doing when she went out, but just told her that she had something to do when she went out and ran out of the door. When she heard her asking like this, she didn't know what to do for a while round the field.

Telling the truth is definitely not enough, you have to find an excuse, but what excuse can you perfectly fool around?

After a flash of light in her eyes, Ruan Mengmeng's mind flashed, she looked at Liu He and said, "Mom, I went out to find something, and this thing only appears after the rain, so I will return it in this weather." out."

"What are you looking for? Where did you eat for lunch?"

"I'm looking for a kind of mushroom." After answering a word, she took a breath and continued, "I haven't eaten lunch yet."

Liu He wanted to ask more questions, but when she heard that she hadn't eaten lunch, she felt a little distressed, and said, "Since you haven't eaten yet, I'll go to the kitchen and make you something to eat."

"Thank you, mother." Ruan Mengmeng thanked her with a smile and squinted her eyes.

Liu He waved her back to the house, and went to the kitchen by herself.

After watching her go to the stove, Ruan Mengmeng was about to go back to rest, but saw Zhao Meifeng rushing into the stove.

Feeling something was wrong, Ruan Mengmeng frowned and walked towards the door of the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Liu He grabbed a handful of flour and put it in a bowl to add water, but before she took the scoop, Zhao Meifeng walked in, "What are you doing?"

Liu He glanced at her and called out, "Mother, I'll make something for Jiaohua."

"Don't do it." Looking at her coldly, Zhao Meifeng said decisively.

Liu He frowned, and said in a very soft voice, "Mother, Jiaohua didn't eat at noon."

"That's not allowed."

"She didn't eat at noon, it's because she didn't have food for her, it's because she didn't come back to eat."

"Even so, the child came back hungry, why can't I make some food for her?"

Zhao Meifeng snorted and said angrily, "She deserves it if she misses the meal. If she can eat again after missing the meal, what are the rules? If we are all like her, how many times will our family have to do this? meal?"

"Not only is this a waste of firewood, but it's also a waste of food."

Liu He was speechless to refute, looking at the bowl in her hand, she didn't know what to do, if she put the bowl down, Ruan Mengmeng would not be able to eat, but if she continued to do it, Zhao Meifeng would definitely not agree.

"I've already told you so clearly, what are you still doing here? Don't hurry up and put the bowl down!"

Before Liu He decided what to do, Zhao Meifeng made a sound.

"Mother, Jiaohua..." Hearing what she said, Liu He still wanted to fight for it, but before she could utter a few words, Zhao Meifeng cut off her voice, "What are you talking about? Do you want to disobey me?"

"I just……"

This time, before she finished speaking, Zhao Meifeng interrupted her and went directly to grab Liu He's bowl, "It's okay for your Jiaohua not to eat. She has been at home all day long in the past six months and has not gone out. What kind of work did you do, you can’t digest it if you eat too much.”

"Mother, you..." How could she say that?It seemed to be complaining that Ruan Mengmeng didn't work, but why didn't she work?Isn't she still the master?It was she who saw the girls in the village marry into wealthy families, and wanted her two granddaughters to also marry into wealthy families, so she cut off both Ruan Jiaohua and Ruan Mingyu's farming duties and let them stay at home to recuperate.

She hopes to raise them to be white, tender and beautiful, so that they can be seen by wealthy people.

After thinking about it for a while, Liu He finally suppressed the words in his heart.

She glanced at Zhao Meifeng faintly, then walked out of the kitchen.

After listening outside for a while, Ruan Mengmeng walked away after hearing the system prompt. When Liu He left the kitchen, Ruan Mengmeng just returned to the door of the house.

Seeing Liu He walking towards her with a complicated expression from afar, Ruan Mengmeng greeted her.

"mother."

Liu He was a little absent-minded when she left the kitchen. She didn't notice that she was at the door. When she heard her voice, she froze for a moment and looked at her, "Jiaohua."

After a pause, she murmured, "I don't see anything to eat. If you're hungry, drink more water. Dinner will be made soon. You can eat more then."

Ruan Mengmeng smiled and said, "Mother, I just wanted to tell you that there is no need to cook food. I am not very hungry now, so I don't need to bother, and it is almost time for dinner."

"Aren't you hungry?" Liu He felt better when she heard her say that, but she was still not sure.

Ruan Mengmeng nodded, "I'm really not hungry."

"That's good." She exhaled, and finally asked her, "Why do you want to find that mushroom?"

Ruan Mengmeng was about to speak, when Ruan Mingyu suddenly came out of the room, leaned up behind Ruan Mengmeng and said, "Sister, I also want to know why you went out of your way to find that mushroom."

Ruan Mengmeng glanced at her, pursed her lips on purpose, and said with a helpless look, "I heard people say that this kind of mushroom can be sold for money, so I want to pick it and sell it, so..."

"So that's how it is. Since it's about making money, sister, why don't you call me? It's not good for you to go out alone. If there is something wrong, what will you ask your second uncle and aunt to do? Besides, how many people can be more Pick some mushrooms, don't you?"

Ruan Mengmeng blinked, and said in a daze, "Sister Mingyu, I didn't think that much. I was only thinking about picking mushrooms and selling them for money, so I forgot about it."

Ruan Mingyu said to her seriously, "Don't forget it in the future. If you want to do something in the future, take sister Mingyu with you. First, I can be your companion, and second, I can help you, right? "

"Yeah, I see." Ruan Mengmeng looked taught.

Ruan Mingyu smiled and asked her again, "You said you went to pick mushrooms, but where are the mushrooms you picked?"
