Because Xiang didn't show up that day, the two families got along well. After this busy period, the two sisters even had some time to chat with the Sun family's mother and daughter. Only at noon did Xiang's figure disappear.

When Yuan appeared, the Sun family's mother and daughter immediately turned their faces away, not even daring to glance this way.

Mrs. Xiang walked closer and saw that there were more customers at Sun's stall than at her own stall. She immediately spat out angrily,

"Bah... vixen!"

Then he turned to look at the small bamboo basket that contained copper plates at home. He saw that about half of the basket was filled. He was satisfied, but he cursed,

"Why so little?"

San Lian did not respond, but Si Lian responded,

"Mom, business today is already very good. We didn't even get so much back in one day yesterday!"

Xiang was most annoyed by the fourth daughter who talked back to her at every turn. When she heard this, she glared and said,

"You are the only one who talks a lot!"

After saying that, he went to the stove and stirred the jar with a spoon. He rummaged around for a while and then turned around and asked Sanlian,

"Why is there a bone missing?"

San Lian was an honest person, but he didn't expect Xiang to be very knowledgeable. He responded in a panic,

"No...no, there are just so many..."

Seeing this, Xiang became more and more suspicious and stared at her third daughter with a pair of toad eyes.

"Did you eat it secretly?"

"Well……"

Sanlian's eyes were wandering and she didn't dare to look directly at her mother. Seeing this, Silian responded from the side,

"Mom, don't ask Third Sister, I ate it secretly..."

Xiang was furious when he heard this.

"I treated you like a money-losing bitch. You didn't make much money, but you learned how to steal it..."

After saying that, he looked around, picked up the rolling pin on the table and started to hit it. Si Lian hurriedly shouted,

"Mom, there are still guests here!"

If you hit someone with a rolling pin, will the guest still eat it?

Xiang Shi glanced at the two tables of customers at the stall, put down the rolling pin helplessly, but bent down and took off her shoes. Seeing this, Si Lian turned around and ran towards the street. Xiang Shi angrily rushed towards

The fourth daughter chased after her, and the mother and daughter disappeared into the crowd one after another. Sanlian watched from behind. Although she was anxious, she did not dare to leave the stall without permission. She could only hope that her sister would run faster and not be caught by her mother.

!

Si Liansheng was thin and nimble on her feet, while Xiang was fat and missing a shoe. She couldn't catch up with her daughter even after running two more steps. She stopped and had to yell at her from a distance.

"...You little bitch, if you have the ability, don't come back. If you come back, I'll beat you to death!"

Si Lian didn't even look back, the wind was blowing under her feet, and she ran across two streets in one breath. When she looked up, she saw that she had arrived at Jujube Alley, and she saw many children carrying school bags heading into the alley in twos and threes. Si Lian knew that

They were going to the Qin family's private school, and they couldn't help but follow behind with envy on their faces.

"It would be great if I could also study!"

Although she only lived to be ten years old in her previous life, she was still a young lady from an official family and could read a few books. Now that she is the daughter of the Jia family, even books and papyrus are not allowed in the Jia family.

See, I bought two knives of meat from the Xiang family earlier, and also gave Jia Youchuan to Mr. Qin's private school to study for two days. At first, Jia Youchuan thought it was strange, and he even practiced calligraphy for two days in a decent manner. Jia Silian

Feeling itchy, he sneaked into Jia Youchuan's room and wrote a few words with his pen and paper, but he didn't expect to be discovered by Jia Youchuan who came back.

Jia Laoqi immediately started shouting and attracted Xiang. Jia Silian was beaten. Later, Jia Laoqi was kicked out by Mr. Qin because he did not follow the rules in the school, bullied his classmates and disrespected his teachers.

When Jia Laoqi returned home, he refused to say that it was because of himself. He only said that it was Jia Silian who was scribbling on his book. When his husband saw it, he became furious and kicked him out!

After hearing this, Mrs. Xiang naturally did not investigate whether what her son said was right or wrong. She just caught her fourth daughter and beat her again. After blaming her son's inability to study on her daughter, she also beat her son to death and never gave up.

After he went to school, he was left to idle around and cause trouble all day long!

And all the pens, inks, paper and inkstones passed down by Jia You were sent back to Xiang's family the next day and given to her nephew. Jia Silian was penniless and had no way to buy them by herself, so she had to secretly come over to take a look at Xiang's back.

Look, even if you can’t read, it’s good to take a look at it to satisfy your cravings!

She was peeking outside the private school when she suddenly saw a somewhat familiar bullock cart approaching slowly. A person jumped out of the bullock cart, and she looked even more familiar.

"Hey...it's him..."

The person who jumped out of the oxcart was Mou Biao. Mou Biao jumped out of the car with his book bag on his back and was about to step into the private school. However, he suddenly turned around and saw Jia Silian hiding behind a tree. He frowned and immediately remembered

Who was Jia Silian? He nodded slightly at her, but without stopping, he stepped into the private school.

Jia Silian watched him go in and thought to herself,

"It seems that he didn't lie. He is indeed studying in a private school here..."

She saw that everyone was almost gone in, so she followed in. Mr. Qin's private school was not closed for the first half of the day, and students could come and go freely. Jia Silian had also visited secretly a few times, and she went in to clean the yard.

The old servant didn't stop her, but smiled at her.

Jia Silian nodded slightly to him shyly. When she entered the main hall, she looked in awe at the statues of sages hanging above her head. She clasped her hands together with a pious expression and bowed respectfully a few times before tiptoeing in.

The sound of reading resounded throughout the backyard. Jia Silian walked along the wall, reached out of the window and looked inside. She glanced across the hall and saw a familiar person in the last row. When she saw him holding a book, the same group of people were shaking their heads.

reading a book.

The students in this school were of different ages and studied different things. Everyone took out their books and read them individually. They also had to read aloud at the request of their husband, so the room seemed very noisy. Mou Biao turned his head

Hiding behind the book, he noticed someone peeking outside the window. He turned around and saw Jia Silian looking back curiously. The classmate with missing teeth next to him noticed it and turned his head after him. After a while, several students in the row behind him noticed.

The boys turned their heads and looked curiously at Jia Silian outside the window.

"uh-huh!"

Mr. Qin, who was above, noticed that several people were distracted and immediately let out a clear cough. Several people turned their heads in fright. When Jia Silian saw that the gentlemen sitting in the seat had been disturbed, she also shrank her head in shock and quietly retreated out.

This car left Qin's house and came out of Suanzao Alley. I was wondering if I would be caught by Xiang when I went back at this time of year, but I accidentally got stabbed diagonally and grabbed my arm with a fat hand.

"You bitch, I guess where are you going to run away this time?"

Jia Silian turned her head and saw that it was her own mother, and couldn't help but feel distressed in her heart.

"Oops, why did she come after her?"

Xiang's fat face was filled with pride. She held her fourth daughter tightly and slapped her with her hand.

"Little bitch, let's see if you dare to eat secretly in the future... Do you still dare to eat secretly?"

Si Lian received a slap on the face and immediately felt burning pain. Seeing that Xiang's second slap was about to come down, she hurriedly raised her hand to cover her face and shouted,

"Mom, if you hit me again, I will tell dad that you coaxed the seventh brother to get a tael of silver!"

Xiang Shi glared angrily when he heard this. The slap of one hand did not fall, but the other hand used such force that the long nails dug into Si Lian's flesh.

"You bitch, how dare you talk nonsense!"

Si Lian responded,

"Whether I'm talking nonsense, mother knows..."

She paused and said,

"Mom, it's already the 16th day of the twelfth lunar month, and the Chinese New Year is less than half a month away. My uncle and aunt are coming to visit. Have you... got the money ready?"

As mentioned earlier, since Xiang got married, she has been helping her parents' family from time to time. In the past, Xiang's mother came forward to help her four daughters. Now that she is old and has trouble walking around, the three uncles of Xiang's family take turns taking care of her.

The son went to the home of the four sisters to enjoy the autumn breeze. Xiang was the eldest sister and cared about her parents' family the most. If Jia Jincheng hadn't been so tight, the family would have been emptied out long ago!

On weekdays, several uncles from the Xiang family come to visit every ten days and a half. They came once on the second day of the twelfth lunar month. Now it seems that it is the end of the year, so how come they have to come again? During the New Year's Day

It is necessary to prepare more things. In previous years, Xiang had to have a lot of trouble with Jia Jincheng to get a few more coins from her husband's hand. This year, with her son's one tael of silver, she finally has a lot more money.

, we can’t let our fourth daughter ruin things with just one word!

Thinking of this, Xiang glared at her fourth daughter fiercely, her eyes nearly bulging out of her sockets.

"If you dare to talk nonsense to your father, I will skin you!"

Jia Silian looked down at her arms,

"Mom, if you pinch me again, I can't control what you're going to say!"

Xiang felt angry and angry at being threatened by her daughter, but she had no choice but to let go of her hand. Her eyes widened and her face muscles twitched.

"If you dare to say a word out of your mouth, I will tear your mouth apart!"

After that, she ignored Jia Silian and twisted her fat body to leave first. Jia Silian looked at her back and shook her head silently.

Among the three uncles of the Xiang family, one works as a coachman in a horse and carriage shop, one works as a clerk in a shop, and the other works as a handyman in the Jingzhao government office. Although they are all from the lower reaches, the money they earn every month is enough to support them.

One family is enough, so why do they need to help?

Besides, among the relatives, only the Jia family gave birth to seven children. It was more difficult for them. When it came to helping others, it was the family that reached out to others. But in so many years, she only saw the Xiang family throwing things away, and she didn't see any of her uncles giving anything.

Whenever Jia Jincheng came to the door, he would take advantage of the fact that Jia Jincheng was not at home, dragging his whole family and bringing them food and food. At the end, he didn't even say thank you, and he didn't know what his own mother was planning.

Jia Silian didn't dare to walk too fast, fearing that Xiang would kill her again when he saw her, so she followed her from a distance. Seeing Xiang entering Yanghua Alley, she went to look for Sanlian at the stall.

Looking her up and down with some worry,

"Did Mom hit you?"

Silian stroked her aching face,

"It's okay. She's been beaten and her anger has gone away, so she won't be beaten again!"
