Splendid Twins

The next day, before dawn, Mrs. Si got up and deliberately made noises in the yard, cursing:

"You are all dead, why don't you get up? I have to worry about your food and drink every day. I have never had a good day since I entered your Si family. Other people's descendants know how to be filial to their elders, but this damned bitch in this family knows how to hide her private things. That bitch doesn't even know how to come back after she went out..."

"Mom, Yaoyao came back last night. You were already asleep at that time, so I didn't disturb you. It's still dark now, so let the child sleep a little longer."

Liu Niang added some more fire to the stove and came out to speak for Si Yao. It would have been better if she hadn't said anything. But after she said this, Mrs. Si got angry and threw down the broom in her hand, put her hands on her hips and cursed:

"You are not allowed to interrupt me when I am talking. Are you worried that I haven't dealt with you in the past few days? I am her grandmother, so what if I say a few words? Whose girl is sleeping in broad daylight?"

"Mom, please don't get angry. This girl Yao has been lazy for a long time. You should take care of yourself, otherwise you will not be able to catch up with Yao Ge'er to go to the capital."

Wang had just finished washing up and came out to pour some water and comfort Mrs. Si. She had an excellent son and her mother-in-law had been kind to her over the years.

"Humph!"

Mrs. Si's expression eased a little, she brushed the dust off her sleeves and walked into the house. Old Man Si was sitting by the bed with his clothes on, his face gloomy. Mrs. Si complained in a low voice as soon as she entered the room:

"Old man, were you sleepy last night? You kicked and hit me, and my back and waist hurt so much that I couldn't sleep all night."

"I didn't say anything last night, did I?"

Old man Si's face was hidden in the dim room, and he looked a little guilty, with a hint of panic in his eyes.

"No, it's like I'm having a nightmare. You're not a three-year-old child. Are you scared, old man?"

Mrs. Si yawned and opened her mouth, but when she saw that Old Man Si looked very bad, she stopped talking. She actually concealed something. She clearly heard the old man say ruthlessly:

If I can kill you once, I can kill you twice!

She was terrified the whole night and dared not close her eyes. Her man was a cruel and ruthless person. When she was fleeing from famine, he was...

Old Man Si looked at Mrs. Si and saw that her face looked normal. He sighed and said:

"I dreamed that Brother Yao passed the imperial examination and I was so happy that I felt a little... You sleep a little longer. I'll go to the town to ask Brother Yao when he will be back so that we can prepare some money for the trip to Beijing."

"That bitch is very cunning and has her own ideas in mind. I can't do anything to her for the time being."

Mrs. Si complained in a low voice that even though she pretended to be sick, she still didn't get the money, and her wrinkled old face was full of anger and unwillingness.

"Don't provoke her yet. Wait until I come back."

Old Man Si was also afraid of Si Yao's back-up plan, so he stood up and walked out with a sullen face.

Seeing Liu Niang packing up her things in the yard, she glanced coldly at the room where Si Yao was sleeping and left home.

Si Yao in the room got up in a rage, her sleepiness was driven away by Si Po's loud voice, her whole face was full of resentment and anger, she sat on the bed wrapped in a quilt and was angry!!!

When Liu Niang came into the room and saw Si Yao's look, she felt a little distressed and said:

"I guess I woke you up. I see your grandma is coming into the house now. You can sleep for a while. Mom is going to the fields. I will come back at noon to cook for you."

Si Yao closed his eyes and said nothing. After hearing Liu Niang leave, he slowly opened his eyes, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he picked up the clothes next to him and put them on.

Wang made herself a bowl of egg soup in the kitchen. Just as she was about to drink it, she was so scared by Si Yao's shout that she burned her mouth!

"Someone died so early in the morning! Why didn't anyone say anything? I haven't enjoyed a single day of comfort since I came here. I've been working all the time. I can't even see anyone when I wake up in the morning!"

"Yao girl, what nonsense are you talking about?"

When Wang heard this, she put down her bowl and came out of the kitchen. This little girl was too arrogant!

Just as he was about to teach Si Yao a lesson, he didn't expect her to strike first:

"Okay, I was wondering why no one was here. So you are eating secretly, auntie. Did grandma know you were eating secretly? Grandma herself was reluctant to eat and drink, but she didn't expect her daughter-in-law to eat secretly. Look at her lips, they are all red. What are you eating? It can't be meat!"

Si Yao stood in the yard with her arms folded across her chest and deliberately spoke loudly towards Si Po's room. This sarcastic look made Wang so angry that she wanted to curse. She had to cook some soup for Yao Ge'er at this time every day in the town, and she would drink a sip of it too. She was not used to not eating at home for the past two days. It happened that her mother-in-law bought a few eggs yesterday, so what was wrong with her eating one?

Her son will be a juren soon, so what's wrong with her eating an egg? !

"You little girl are really sharp-tongued. Your eldest cousin will soon become a juren. As the mother of a juren, can't I eat something? But you, at such a young age, don't respect your elders. I'm waiting to see what kind of person you will marry in the future. If you are bullied by your in-laws, don't count on my son!"

Seeing Wang's confident look on Si Yao's face that he would pass the imperial examination, Si Yao wanted to laugh. She had seen Si Yao's face and knew that he would only be a scholar in his lifetime! !

Seeing that Mrs. Si had not come out of the house yet, Si Yao's eyes flashed with malice, and she deliberately spoke loudly:

"If your eldest cousin doesn't win, then you can still steal food..."

"I'm going to beat you to death, you little bitch. How dare you curse my good grandson to fail the exam? If I don't beat you to death today, I'm not your grandmother."

When Mrs. Si heard Si Yao's heart-wrenching words, she rushed out of the house with a stick. Her hopes for the rest of her life rested on Yao Ge'er, and this little bitch dared to violate her taboo!

The moment Si Pozi opened her mouth, Si Yao ran out, shouting:

"Grandma, please stop hitting me. It was my aunt who stole your food. Grandma, please don't hit me."

"Stop right there, you bitch!"

"Grandma is too partial. You spent all my parents' savings on my eldest cousin's education. It was clearly my aunt who cheated on me, but you wanted to beat me..."

Si Yao ran and shouted, not caring at all that the villagers heard the noise and came out to watch the fun. It was only a little after six in the morning, and she did it on purpose. She didn't sleep well, so the old lady couldn't sleep either!

Mrs. Si was angry because she hadn't slept all night. She had just closed her eyes and was awakened by Si Yao's words. She chased after him with a stick in her hand and scolded him. Si Yao didn't run. She walked and ran in front of her. Aunt Huang watched this scene with a smile:

"You two are quite interesting. One can't catch up, and the other can't run fast."

"Aunt Si, calm down. All children are like this. Take care of yourself."

Sixth Aunt stood at the door of her house and tried to comfort her, feeling a little sorry for Mrs. Si who looked so tired.

"Shut up! Don't think I don't know what you, a wife, are up to. My brother Yao will soon be a juren. When the time comes, I will go to the capital with him to enjoy the best of life. It's too late for you to curry favor with me now!"

After Mrs. Si said this, Aunt Six was so angry that she was speechless. She really said something too much!

Aunt Huang knew this would happen, so she teased Aunt Six on purpose:

"Look, shit is sprayed all over your face, isn't it?"

"Shut up!"

Aunt Six was so angry that she turned around and went back into her house. She closed the door and ignored the outside world. Aunt Huang looked at Si Yao with a smile:

"Yao girl, it's great that you can be so childish."

Mrs. Si looked at Aunt Huang fiercely and said, "Shut your stinky mouth, do you really think I can't beat you? This bitch of mine has given you a lot of pork!"

Aunt Huang was not one to suffer a loss, so she rolled up her sleeves and started to curse:

"You are the one with the foul mouth, you stink like shit. It is reasonable for me to spend money to buy meat. I am not like you who don't care about your old face and exploit your own son. You treat Yao girl's family like animals. You are so greedy that you pretend to be sick and spend Yao girl's private money to buy chicken. It's bad luck to go against you this early in the morning!"

"I, my wife, shut up!"

Mrs. Si felt a pain in her chest from Aunt Huang's scolding. She looked at Si Yao standing not far away, smiling and watching the fun. She pointed at Si Yao with a stick and cursed:

"Just wait, little whore. I'll beat you to death today!"

Si Yao's eyes darkened and she said loudly, "It's really unfair. My parents went out before dawn to earn money to support my eldest cousin's studies, but my aunt hid in the kitchen and ate secretly. When I told you about it, you chased me with a stick and beat me. How could such a good thing happen? When my eldest cousin gets into high school, I will ask him if he still remembers my parents' kindness!"

When Mrs. Si heard this, she wanted to say something, but she saw the villagers nearby gathered in groups of three or four to discuss her. They pointed fingers at her and made her speechless. She could only say to Si Yao viciously:

"Don't come back today!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked home. He happened to see Wang standing behind the crowd. Thinking that all this was because she was caught cheating, he was so angry that he picked up a stick and hit Wang's leg, lowering his voice and cursing:

"You stinky bitch, I'll kill you!"

Wang was hit so hard that she burst into tears on the spot. When she heard these words, anger surged in her heart. She lowered her eyes to hide the hatred in her eyes!
