Chapter 544: The lazy family (5)2

Bai Xiaofeng said: “Niang, we are all a family. Why can’t we speak if we have something to say? Why not speak with a straight face?” Bai Xiaofeng blinked at Mrs. Liu again.

Mrs. Liu didn’t understand his meaning, but since her son said so, he must have a reason, so she agreed: “Who said no, I also think the same.”

Bai Xiaofeng said: “Since we are all a family, if there is some difficulty, we should naturally help each other, right?”

Mrs. Zhang stayed silent, she just lowered her head and continued embroidering.

Mrs. Liu busily followed up Bai Xiaofeng’s words: “That is only natural. If we are family, there is no reason not to help.”

Bai Xiaofeng was very pleased to see his mother backing him up: “So let’s consult aunt if we can borrow some rice grains for this winter. She is a generous person and will not mind things about before. When I become a big official in the future, she will be the person I will repay.”

After playing words for a long time, borrowing food was still the main key.

Mrs. Zhang kept lowering her head and didn’t bother to look at Bai Xiaofeng and Mrs. Liu: “We don’t have grains anymore. We’re still worried about what to eat tomorrow. The wages we are working on right now will be given at the end of the month, which is still 10 days away from now.”

Mrs. Zhang sneered inside her heart. When he became official in the future? He can’t even be chosen to participate in the exam, but he was looking forward to becoming an official? Is the government lacking candidates to pick him?

Besides, people like Bai Dazhu, Liu Guihua, and the old lady, who among them teach him to repay the kindness of other people? It would be better not to expect anything.

Regardless of whether he becomes a big official in the future, she doesn’t expect anything or counts on it.

The smile on Bai Xiaofeng’s face froze. This second aunt of him seems to be immune to both soft and hard tactics. He really wanted to kick that table and slap her face. This ignorant fool dared to ignore him like this. He will become a big official in the future.

He wanted to turn around and walk away, but thinking about his empty stomach, he felt very hungry. Although they still have other relatives in the Huangtou Village, he offended them at all times. No one will lend them food. He can only count on this second aunt.

Bai Xiaofeng took a deep breath and continued to speak with a smile: “Second Aunt, how can you not lend us food? Can you bear to watch our family starve to death?”

Mrs. Zhang stopped the work on her hands and looked up at Bai Xiaofeng: “There are so many people in our village who are poorer than us. Not to mention, in the whole world. Why they are not starving to death, but why is your family starving?”

Bai Xiaofeng couldn’t get it, so Mrs. Zhang continued to say: “Xiaofeng, you are a person who studied for years. Do you still need this aunt to explain the word self-reliant to you? You shouldn’t expect others to help you, your whole life. You should rely on yourself.”

Mrs. Liu was too lazy to listen to her nonsense, she raised her chin and shouted: “Just tell me the condition for you to lend us food, alright?”

Mrs. Zhang shook her head: “It’s impossible to lend you food. Our family only depends on this embroidery job. It’s already difficult for me to support our family, but you also want me to support yours? I can’t do it at all.”

Mrs. Zhang paused, and then said: “However if you decide to be diligent, I can take more embroidering jobs from Zhao Sue and give it to you. So that you can earn money to buy grains and no longer need to ask help from others. How about it?”

Mrs. Liu looked at Mrs. Zhang’s hands full of frostbite and then hesitated. If she also did this embroidering job like Mrs. Zhang, then won’t her hands also end up like this?
