"Your mother chose good wives for your brothers, why do you think that is?"
Manbao: "Why do you think that is?"
"Because your mother suffered a heavy loss before."
Manbao always felt that her grandaunt was mocking her father, yet she lacked solid evidence.
"When your mother first married into the family, what did your father have besides a face?" Aunt Lai criticized, "Your grandfather was no good either, and neither was your grandmother. One was spoiled by your grandmother, see that Laizi's family?"
Aunt Lai said, "Back then, your family was almost as bad as Laizi's. The fields around the village were nearly abandoned, and it wasn't until your grandfather and grandmother leisurely started the spring planting. Always three steps behind everyone else, when others were fertilizing and weeding, they just started planting the seedlings..."
The onlookers and a bunch of children from the Zhou family were all stunned. My God, was this really the Zhou family?
