24 -24: Enduring Injustice
Dani was scared out of her wits, she stuttered when she spoke, “Gran, Gran, I, I…”
She was in trouble now; she came back home sneakily to rest and was caught by her grandmother.
She was sure to be scolded, perhaps even beaten.
At this age of seven, Dani was already a working child.
At home, she had to help with feeding chickens and sweeping the ground.
Outdoors, she had to cut pig grass, catch caterpillars, and pick wild vegetables, and so on.
Even five-year-old Erni and four-year-old Sanni had to work with her if they weren’t looking after their little sister.
On the other hand, six-year-old Chen Dabao was outside playing all day, only coming home when it was time to eat.
Seeing Dani’s little face turning pale, Ma Xiulian furrowed her brows, reached out, and touched her forehead.
Dani thought she was about to be slapped and immediately closed her eyes in fear, but the expected slap never came.
A large rough and dry hand unceremoniously touched her forehead, and an equally blunt voice said, “Why is your face so pale?
Are you having a heatstroke?”
Dani opened her eyes, staring blankly at her grandmother, “No, no heatstroke.”
Seeing Dani’s reaction not indicating a heatstroke, Ma Xiulian removed her hand and nonchalantly uttered, “It’s hot.
Remember to drink more water.”
Dani stared at her, as if she didn’t recognize the person in front of her.
Ma Xiulian disregarded it, teased her granddaughter for a while and then with haste went back to work in the fields.
Seeing that the two girls took good care of their younger sister, before leaving she instructed: “Take care of your sister, don’t go out at noon when the sun is at its height.”
It was quite a while after she left that Dani snapped out of her stupor, and found herself feeling somewhat happy.
Her grandmother caught her sneaking home to rest, but instead of beating or scolding her, she allowed her to rest at home.
So she whispered to her sister, “Erni, I think our grandma might not be that fierce.”
Erni shook her head firmly, “Grandma is very fierce!”
Especially when she has a straight face, Erni wished she could stay far away from her!

Li Chunhua only spent a day harvesting rice in the field, but she was already tired, her back ached, and several blisters formed on her hands.
Zhao Mei, on the other hand, was lively and full of energy.
At that moment, she made up her mind to bring her little daughter back home and feed her herself!
“Mom, I will feed Guibao myself from now on.”
Ma Xiulian rebuked her without hesitation, “Do you think you’re a lord, feeding her when you want to and refusing when you don’t?
Keep dreaming!”
Li Chunhua was embarrassed and could only close her mouth in awkward silence.
But she wasn’t satisfied.
Why wouldn’t they let her, the mother, feed her own daughter?!
She unhappily bit into a piece of dry sweet potato cake, and accidentally choked on it.
Li Chunhua coughed so hard her eyes rolled up in her head.
She quickly drank several gulps of wild vegetable porridge to get it down.
“Cough, cough, cough!”
While she was coughing miserably, she glared at Zhao Mei’s turtledove soup noodles.
Eating fine noodles or rice never caused throat problems, not to mention choking!
That was it!

She absolutely had to bring her daughter back to feed her herself!!
Worst case scenario, she would just have to humble herself to please that pesky girl, coax her to come back first and go from there.
When the time came, if her daughter insisted on breast milk from her, not even her mother-in-law would have a reason to stop her from feeding her.
Although she would feel sorry for her son who would no longer have breast milk, he could eat meat and eggs with every meal.
After quickly finishing her wild vegetable porridge, she cautiously looked at her mother-in-law: “Mom, you have your meal, I’ll hold Guibao.”
Ma Xiulian gave her a look.
Considering she was indeed Guibao’s real mom, she nodded, “Okay.”
As soon as Li Chunhua heard this, she joyfully and carefully reached out to take Guibao.
