Chapter 24 Things to Bring to Grandpa's House

Wei Zhizhi and Tian Xiaocao snorted coldly when they heard this, and walked into the house without waiting.

However, Li Mingxia was not unhappy. If he thought about it from another perspective, he would probably have complaints too, so he could not blame others for their attitude.

Li Mingxia and others entered the side room together. There was an old man sitting on the kang, leaning against a pile of quilts. He looked energetic, but a little thin. It was Zhang Youcai. When he saw Zhang, his reaction was almost the same as Zhang's mother's. However, because he was both a father and a grandfather in front of others, he held back his tears.

"Come here quickly and let daddy take a look." Father Zhang patted the place beside him and called Zhang's nickname.

"Grandpa!"

"Grandpa!"

Father Zhang sighed and quickly agreed, "Okay, you are all good kids, hurry up and sit on the kang, why are you standing?"

"It's nothing, you've seen it all, everything will be fine, don't cry, you're a mother now, aren't you afraid that you might scare your children?" When Zhang's father saw Zhang crying, he sighed and coaxed her and threatened her, with a fatherly love that made Zhang cry even more sadly.

"Mom, how can we listen to grandpa when you are like this? Don't cry, let's listen to how grandpa's leg is injured." Li Mingxia sat next to Zhang, held her hand and patted it gently.

After a flurry of activity, everyone was finally able to piece together Zhang's father's condition at the time. It was far from as optimistic as it looks now. He almost lost his life and it took a long time for him to recover. Now he only has this leg that cannot be moved.

"It's just that my father is lucky. If he had been more unlucky, he would have lost his life! I don't know who he was thinking about and distracted him. Even the work he was used to doing went wrong!" Tian Xiaocao snorted coldly and said bluntly.

Are you going to put the blame on Zhang for everything? Li Mingxia frowned slightly.

She knew that Zhang's father and mother had helped them a lot over the years, both openly and secretly. It was because of this incident that she felt she owed these uncles' families. So from the beginning until now, no matter what they said, Li Mingxia had not retorted. However, this accusation was really too big. If she didn't say something to refute this statement, her stubborn mother would probably really take all the blame on her.

"I don't understand what you said, aunt. My grandpa has been worried about my mother for a long time. Why didn't anything happen in the past? Why did it happen this time? Speaking of worrying, there are so many things going on at home and outside. As the head of the family, what doesn't my grandpa worry about? If what you said is true, aunt, my grandpa only has my mother in his heart and no one else? Then how did my three uncles get married? How did you get married, aunt?" Li Mingxia stood up and took a step forward to block Zhang behind him, looking at Tian Xiaocao with a cold look.

Forget about other things, but don’t take the blame for something that’s not yours!

"A child interrupts when adults are talking? Sister-in-law, is this how you discipline your daughter? You come here every now and then, don't think we are all fools! A daughter who is married off is like water spilled, there are other people in this family who can survive!" When Tian Xiaocao heard Li Mingxia's sharp rebuttal, she became furious!

She stared at Zhang and Li Mingxia, waiting for them to speak. This time she was determined to teach this shameless family a lesson!

But she didn't expect that Li Mingxia said those words just to comfort Zhang. After achieving her goal, she would naturally keep silent. She didn't forget the purpose of coming here today.

"Mom, didn't you bring something for grandma and grandpa? It happens that grandpa's leg is injured and needs repair. Please take it out quickly." Li Mingxia turned around and gave Zhang a wink.

Zhang then remembered that she did not come empty-handed today, "Yes, yes, Dad, Mom, I brought you two some things, just in time to make some for my dad to nourish his body."

As she spoke, Zhang took out the basket from the corner. Tian Xiaocao and Wei Zhizhi looked at the wild vegetables on the surface of the basket with disdain in their eyes.

"I've never heard of anyone's wild vegetables being able to nourish the body. Why is it that only the wild vegetables in your Qianniu Village are so precious? There are none in other villages?"

Zhang's mother knew her daughter was not well off, so she quickly said, "These wild vegetables came at the right time. Your father has been talking about wanting to eat wild vegetable porridge."

When Wei Zhizhi heard this, she burst out laughing.

"There's nothing else in the kitchen, but this wild vegetable can fill a sack. When did Dad want to eat this? Why didn't I hear what he said yesterday and today? If others heard it, they would think our three sons and three daughters-in-law were all dead. If Dad wants to eat a bite of the wild vegetables all over the mountain, he has to wait for his old daughter to bring them back before he can eat them!"

Li Mingxia pinched her fingertips. Wei Zhizhi's words were really hurtful. However, Zhang seemed not to hear her and was busy with the work in her hands. She removed the layer of wild vegetables on the top and took out the things underneath one by one.

Sugar, pears, cakes, meat, glutinous rice, flour, two chickens pressed at the bottom, and a small purse containing two taels of silver. This was also what Li Mingxia and Zhang had agreed on.

Wei Zhizhi and Tian Xiaocao's eyes almost popped out when they saw the pile of things on the kang. When Zhang's mother opened her purse and poured out the two taels of silver, they were so shocked that they couldn't say a word.

Where did this poor sister-in-law who only knew how to beg for money and didn't have a penny to spare get so many things? Could she have robbed someone?

Zhang's mother held the piece of silver in her hand and trembled. "My daughter, where did you get these things? What did you do?"

If all four children were not here, Zhang's mother would have suspected whether these things were obtained by selling one of the children.

"Mom, listen to me." Zhang told Li Mingxia about selling red fruit cakes these days, but she didn't mention the recipe.

Everyone in the room was stunned when they heard that selling cakes could make so much money. Zhang's mother was happy but still pushed the two taels of silver back, "You also said that the business is not doing well now. Even if you have made some money recently, you can't spend it like this. You have four children, and there will be many places to spend money in the future."

Li Mingxia watched Zhang and her mother refuse each other, and said with a smile: "Grandma, just accept it. This is a gift from my mother. You have been worrying about our family all these years. Now that we have made money, we want to buy something for grandma and grandpa. Besides, we will have other businesses in a few days, which will be no worse than this one."
