"What are you talking about?" Ms. Niu glared at her. "Those hens are for eggs, we can't kill them to eat. We are not wasting food at home!"
Qiao Xuan snorted. "But Qi of our family is young, and he needs rest. He gets tired too. Our parents feel sorry for him, so do we as brother and sister-in-law!"
Shao Xiaoqi added. "Yes, my legs feel languished after a full day's running. It takes me several days before I am able to completely relax!"
The three of them laughed.
They were obviously teasing Ms. Niu.
Annoyed, Ms. Niu shot back. "You are countering the senior member of the family!"
Qiao Xuan's face sank, as she said coldly, "Second Aunt-in-law… should we try to seek justice with our parents? You are setting us up! Whenever Qi returns with wild animals, you always speak ill about him when you don't get anything from him. Also, me and Taotao… have we ever offended you, Second Aunt-in-law?"
Ms. Niu felt even more angry.
