My Husband and I Brought Hundreds of Millions of Supplies to Farm Chapter 3

Chapter 3 The situation

At the same time, she also realized that the Gu family was large. First of all, was the eldest matriarch of the Gu family, Gu Chengrui’s biological grandmother, Mrs. Qiao.

The main family branch that the couple was staying in now had one wife and one concubine, four children consisting of two boys and two girls, and her, their daughter-in-law.

There were even more people in the second family branch. They had one wife and two concubines, with five children, consisting of two boys and three girls. There was also Mrs. Yang, the wife of the eldest son, Gu Chengzhi, and the child in her stomach.

As far as she knew, this was not all of them. After leaving the capital, all the concubines in the two family branches who did not bear children were dismissed on the spot.

Therefore, she and Gu Chengrui were the only children his father disliked and had no mother. Naturally, they were bullied.

After the meal was ready, a group of women quickly helped her to place the food in the dining hall.

They sat at two tables, one for the men and one for the women.

The dishes on the table were the same, but there were more steamed buns on the men’s table.

After everyone sat down, Zhou Ying found that there was no seat for her. At this time, she also remembered that the original her had not eaten at the table since she entered the Gu family.

When she thought of this, she felt a burst of anger. Seeing that there were still three steamed buns in the basket, she picked them up and turned to leave.

“Jinx, what are you doing? You can’t eat steamed buns. Put them down.” Mrs. Liu stood up and said.

“Aren’t the steamed buns there for people to eat? Why can’t I eat them?” Zhou Ying turned her head and asked with a smile.

Then, she grabbed a steamed bun and took a bite. She even chewed a few times, loudly on purpose. She didn’t look like she was eating a steamed bun, looking as if she was chewing them up on purpose.

“You… You jinx. It’s already good enough that you have something to eat. How dare you eat those steamed buns?” Mrs. Liu raised her hand and pointed at her angrily.

After she finished speaking, she stood up and wanted to grab it, but the old Madam Qiao saw Zhou Ying’s abnormal att.i.tude and immediately stopped her. “Alright, she’s been busy the whole morning. It’s just a steamed bun. Just let her eat it. She can just put the other two down.”

Everything in and out of the house depended on her, especially in the kitchen. If she really made a fuss and shirked the responsibility, it would be troublesome for them.

“Madam, Chengrui hasn’t eaten yet. He’s sick and can’t survive without staple food. So, I have to take these two steamed buns with me.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she got ready to head out again.

At that moment, her older brother-in-law, Gu Chengzhi, stood up and stopped her. “Sister-in-law, you’re going too far. You and your husband don’t work, so you two can just share one bun. We still have to work in the workshop after dinner. We can’t take it if we don’t have enough.”

“Not working?” Zhou Ying turned her head and asked with a faint smile.

Then, she waved her hand in front of his eyes and said, “We, husband and wife, do all the dirty and tiring work in this house. You should be very clear about this.”

Gu Chengzhi looked at her hands, which were rougher and redder than his own, and he didn’t know what to say.

“Jinx, how could you speak like this to your older brother-in-law…” When her second aunt, Mrs. Yao, heard her words, she immediately slammed the table and stood up.

Without waiting for her to finish, Zhou Ying immediately said, “Stop. I think you know better than I do why the princess died and why the Gu family was raided.

Don’t push everything on me, and don’t call me a jinx. I don’t think I am worthy of being called that. ”

“Where’s your upbringing? Is this how the Zhou family taught you to speak to your elders?” The old madam put down her chopsticks and shouted angrily.

“Respect is mutual. We’re about to die, so who cares about being polite?” Zhou Ying turned her head and looked straight at her.
