The Journey Of The Peasant Mother-in-Law - Chapter 19

Xuehan didn’t expect to meet her mother, she planned to go to the kitchen secretly, it was not that she was a coward, but she was afraid of her mother, “Mother.”

Well, this is what I don’t want to say.

Zhulan stroked her daughter’s hair, it was really soft, “Go to the kitchen and steal pancakes for Sanya, right?”

Xuehan didn’t think much about it and replied, “Meat dregs.”

That’s right if she and Zhou Shuren hadn’t come, the couple wouldn’t go to town to take care of their body, let alone buy meat. In the original plot, it was stealing pancakes.

Xuehan realized what she had just said, so she covered her mouth with her chubby little hands. It could be seen that she was afraid of her mother’s expressionless face, and she carefully pulled her sleeves, “Mum, don’t be angry.”

Zhulan felt in her heart this girl, can she be any more cuter, but her face was expressionless, “Do you know what you did wrong?”

It was the first time that Xuehan saw Zhulan being so stern, her eyes were red and tears were falling, “I, I shouldn’t steal food.”

Even if you are young, you know the importance of food.

Zhulan thought to herself that her original husband was a scholar, and there were two students in the family. She never slackened her children’s education. The character of her family was very important.

The children in the family, don’t look at their different personalities, but they know the bottom line of etiquette, righteousness, integrity, and shame. Stealing was absolutely not allowed, especially for girls, even if they stole from the family. The ancients were too harsh on women, and women’s reputation was greater than the sky.

Zhulan was angry in her heart. In the original text, Wang Ru pretended to be pitiful to gain sympathy and attention. And then it hit her; this was a great opportunity to let Xuehan know what kind of person Wang Ru was. If she didn’t take advantage of this opportunity, she would be banging her head against the wall.

Zhulan didn’t try to coax the child, but became more severe, “You still have the face to cry, your reputation is lost, how did your father and I teach you? Do you want to shame the family and let the family get stabbed in the back?”

Every time Xuehan heard a sentence, she trembled with fear. She was also literate and polite, “Mother, I was wrong, I really didn’t know it was so serious, mother.”

Seeing the little girl crying and hiccupping, Zhulan couldn’t bear it. But thinking of the fate of her family, hardened her heart, “Will you dare in the future?”

Xuehan kept hiccupping, where did she have the courage, “I don’t dare, I don’t dare.”

Only then did Zhulan take out her handkerchief to wipe the child’s face. She gave her a stick, and now it was time to coax her, “Mother’s treasure is a kind-hearted child, mother doesn’t believe it was your idea. Did Sanya ask you to come back and get it?”

Xuehan didn’t say anything in the end, she knew that her mother didn’t like Sanya.

Zhulan wanted to laugh in her heart, she was the one who knew the plot. She kissed her daughter’s face, “You know it even if you don’t tell me, my daughter is not a person who has no bottom line. You know mother doesn’t like Sanya, then you know why I do not like her??”

Xuehan really didn’t know, her mother always said that Sanya’s family was not good.

Zhulan was very patient, “No matter whether you have read the book or not, you know that stealing is not good, especially for girls. If Sanya later says you steal food, your reputation will be ruined. Even if the family tries to cover it up, you will have a bad impression in everyone’s hearts and your reputation will be ruined. What should you do then?”

Xuehan was now experiencing psychological fear. It wasn’t just fear, but actual terror. There was a girl in the village who had a bad reputation and committed suicide after her engagement broke. However, in order to defend her friend, Xuehan still spoke up and said, “Sanya wouldn’t do that.”

Zhulan snorted coldly in her heart. How can she not do that? When Wang Ru’s body got better, she casually mentioned it to her friends, and soon the whole village knew. Although the Zhou family tried to cover it up, they couldn’t stop Wang Ru’s loose tongue. Xuehan’s reputation was inevitably affected.

Zhulan took her daughter and looked into her eyes, “Bao, before your mother thought that she could wait another two years, but now I find that I can’t wait. Your mother wants to tell you that the most difficult thing in the world to understand is the human heart. If you don’t believe me, then let’s go test it ourselves, just us mother and daughter?”
