C4 Planting Seeds
"Your father asked you to study in the No.7 Middle School, so you will be in charge of the family matters from now on. Your mother said that she would go to the Wu Family to catch two pigs. Dad and mom have to work. You have to be responsible for feeding pigs in the future. "
Zhang Ziying looked at Ye Ziqing with schadenfreude. This was the suggestion she gave her mother. This year, the price of meat had increased quite a bit. When it was New Year's Eve, they did not need to buy meat anymore. They could also make a lot of sausages. The sausages that Ye Ziqing made were very delicious.
"Dad said that although your grades for the middle school examination were very good, it did not mean that your grades in high school would also be good. If you don't get a scholarship and pay your brother's tuition fees, he will beat you up." Zhang Ziying saw that Ye Ziqing was still washing her clothes and continued to say.
"Get lost!" Ye Ziqing shouted with a sullen face.
"You dare to ask me to get lost?" Zhang Ziying was shocked by Ye Ziqing. She did not expect Ye Ziqing to also dare to shout at her.
"I am Ye Zhiyong's biological daughter. What is so great about you? Do you think that he bought you some clothes because he treats you well? He wants to sell you to Zhang Ziqiao when you grow up." Ye Ziqing said with a cold smile. She originally did not want to argue with Zhang Ziying. But Zhang Ziying thought that she was still the same as before, so she had to explode.
"You are lying." Ye Ziqing's words were like a thunderclap.
She had never thought why Ye Zhiyong treated her better than Ye Ziqing. She used to think that because he loved her mother, she enjoyed a life that was even better than Ye Ziqing's.
Now, she felt that this really did not make sense. She was the daughter of a death row criminal. What right did she have to have a higher status than Ye Ziqing? What Ye Ziqing said might be the truth. His current sacrifice was to obtain greater profits.
"Whether I lie or not, you will know in the future. I'm his biological daughter, after all, my academic results are good. But he doesn't like me. You're the daughter of a death row criminal, and you don't have any special abilities. What right do you have to be liked by him?" Ye Ziqing said lightly.
She knew that she had planted a seed in Zhang Ziying's heart. This seed would take root and germinate as long as there was a chance, and then grow into a towering tree. This family would not exclude her like in her previous life.
Ye Ziqing saw Zhang Ziying's pale face and knew that she had poked Zhang Ziying's soft spot. She was instantly satisfied. She took her clothes and went to the riverside.
At this time, the water of the White River had not been polluted and the water here was very clear. Countless small fish and shrimp were playing around in the water. It was a pity that the sun was too hot.
Ye Ziqing squatted on a rock by the river and took out her clothes. She washed the basket and then washed the clothes in the water one by one before putting them in the basket.
After washing the clothes, she took out her sickle to cut the weeds growing on the mud by the river. This season was when the weeds grew the most exuberant. It was just that many people came to the river to cut the weeds, so the remaining weeds were very little.
Two hours later, Ye Ziqing finally harvested a basket of weeds. Then she carried her clothes and carried the grass home.
"You finally came back. My mom told you to prepare the rice." Zhang Ziying sat on the sofa and read a novel. Although her tone was rude, she was obviously not as confident as before. Ye Ziqiao was flipping the comic book.
After Ye Ziqing finished drying her clothes, she started to prepare the fire. She put the rice cooker on the stove and then went to wash the vegetables.
After Ye Zhiyong came back from work, Zhang Aiqin came up from the first floor to fry the vegetables. The dishes today were better. The reason why she did not want Ye Ziqing to stir-fry the vegetables was because she was afraid that she would eat secretly.
Zhang Aiqin was very efficient. Very quickly, the dishes were carried to the table. They sat in front of the table and prepared to eat.
"Ziqing, send the food to Aunty." Seeing Ye Ziqing pick up the bowl, Zhang Aiqin placed a lunchbox filled with food in front of her.
Ye Ziqing looked at her and took the lunchbox to go downstairs. She handed the lunchbox to Zhang Ailing who was still looking at the store and went upstairs.
"I want to eat fish. Ye Ziqing, pick out the fishbone for me." Ye Ziqiao saw that Ye Ziqing started to eat without caring about anything and said loudly.
"Why should I help you pick out the fish bones?" Ye Ziqing ignored him and picked up the bowl to eat.
"We can't raise you for free. You have to do something for us." Ye Ziqiao fiercely took the chopsticks and was about to hit Ye Ziqing.
"Since Dad gave birth to me, he had to feed me. Before I became an adult, it was against the law if he didn't raise me." Ye Ziqing ate while avoiding Ye Ziqiao.
"Ye Ziqing, you first pick out the fishbone for your brother." Ye Zhiyong could not help but say when he saw that she only cared about eating and refuted their words from time to time.
"I wasn't full at noon. I was hungry a long time ago. I can help him pick out the fish bones after dinner." Ye Ziqing picked up a fish and slowly ate it. This kind of fish had a lot of fishbone. If Ye Ziqiao ate the fishbone, not only would she be punished and not allowed to eat, she might even be beaten.
Ye Zhiyong saw that she was not as honest as usual and even learned to talk back. He could not suppress the anger in his heart.
"Why should I eat later? Why should I pick out fish bones for him?" Ye Ziqing said with a cold smile.
"You are the eldest sister."
"When did he call me elder sister? When did he treat me as his Big Sister? He has parents and his own sister. Why should I pick out fish bones for him? " Ye Ziqing's eyes were filled with ridicule.
Zhang Aiqin had never treated her as a family. She had told Ye Ziqiao since she was young that Zhang Ziying was his elder sister and Ye Ziqing was the servant in this family. In the long run, Ye Ziqing seemed worthless in his eyes.
