Chapter 534: Buying rice
Mrs. Zhang sighed and glared at Bai Erzhu: “Originally it was enough for us, but the first branch is like bandits. Every time the meal was cooked, they will rob it. With Bai Dazhu’s physique, we are not his opponent, coupled with Liu Guihua’s ability to play tricks, we are… … Later, when Erzhu saw that they really couldn’t survive, he gave them half our rations.”
At this point, she got really angry. He didn’t discuss it with her before he divided their rations.
Mrs. Zhang looked at Bai Erzhu with sharp eyes, then continued: “We still have half of the ration. So we can still eat for a few days, but who knows, that Liu Guihua’s maternal side will come and said that her mother was starving to death. She didn’t eat for several days.”
“Liu Guihua wanted to help her mother, but Bai Dazhu and the old lady refused to help. Liu Guihua, that wicked woman, took advantage of the time that we are all in the kitchen, and stole all the food in our room and gave it to her brother.”
The more she spoke, the more she wanted to tear that wicked woman into pieces.
Zhou Xiaofeng on the side said: “In that case, you should also grab their rations away from her.”
Mrs. Zhang replied: “I thought the same way. At that time, I asked Liu Guihua for food and asked her to return what Erzhu had given to them before. But do you know what that wicked woman said? She said that the food was already given to their family, so it belongs to the first branch. There is no way that she will give it back to us. After we shared our food, they just let us starve to death? How can there be such kind of people in this world?”
Seeing his wife so angry, Bai Erzhu blamed himself: “It’s all my fault. You blamed me for being soft-hearted for a while. People like them are simply not worthy of sympathy.”
Bai Zhi said: “Have you ever thought that such a thing if it happened once, it will happen the second time? With your ability, do you think you can support the first branch and the old lady?”
Mrs. Zhang released a heavy sigh and said immediately: “Support them? Why should we? They have hands and feet, why should we support them? I’ve thought about it for a long time. When we planted melons next spring and earned money, I ’ll do the same. I’ll build a new house and stop seeing them.”
Bai Zhi shook her head but said nothing.
How could their situation be the same as hers? She was a child picked up by Bai Sanzhu, while Zhao Lan was only a daughter-in-law, but what about Bai Erzhu? He was the old lady’s biological son and Bai Dazhu’s younger brother. This kind of blood relationship can’t be broken. If she wants to completely break the relationship with them, she’s afraid that it will be very difficult.
Bai Zhi got up: “You wait, I’ll get grains.” Whatever they want to do with the Bai family, it has nothing to do with her. She was too lazy to manage it and too lazy to ask. And so, she just sold her as much grain as she wanted to.

“You haven’t you sleep yet?” Zhao Sue went downstairs and walked by Bai Zhi’s room when she returned. She saw the light was still lit inside, so she pushed the door to take a look.
Bai Zhi looked at the full moon outside the window and smiled: “The moonlight is too strong to sleep.”
Zhao Sue frowned: “What reasoning is that? Why do I feel like the moonlight is not strong? Just tell me honestly, your thinking about Hu Feng, right?” She walked close to Bai Zhi and sat down, then reached out her hand to the stove to warm herself.
Bai Zhi shook her head: “No, I was just thinking about the shops we just rented. The business is so good, but we only open a few days and we encountered heavy snow. I’m thinking about the rent this month.”
Zhao Sue was about to speak, but the next second, a hurried knocking at the gate sounded. And it seemed like someone was shouting Bai Zhi’s name, but they didn’t hear who it was.
