Transmigration: From Dragon Princess To Pampered Granddaughter-Chapter 23 - Going into the Ground Crevice
23: Chapter 23 Going into the Ground Crevice
23 -23 Going into the Ground Crevice
Even though Ma Xiulian loudly claimed that the pigeon was for Zhao Mei alone, she still stewed another one to share among her three grandchildren.
And since she herself was eating coarse grain bread and vegetable porridge, Zhou Zhaodi really didn’t have any complaints.
However, Li Chunhua was already contemplating whether she should take her little girl back and feed her herself.
But she was afraid that the brat would gobble up all the milk, leaving none for her son.
She was thinking so intently that she didn’t hear Ma Xiulian calling her several times.
Ma Xiulian furrowed her brow and suddenly raised her voice, “Woman of the third son, I’m talking to you!”
Her loud voice scared off two chickens that were picking food in the yard.
Li Chunhua almost dropped on her butt in surprise.
She quickly replied, “Mom, you speak, I’m listening.”
She was becoming intimidated by this mother-in-law, fearing that she might instigate her son to divorce her if something displeased her.
Ma Xiulian blandly stated, “Starting today, you will work in the fields, and my eldest daughter-in-law will go to the grain sunning ground.”
Upon hearing these words, Li Chunhua’s face immediately turned sour.
She didn’t want to swap jobs!
Seeing her reaction, Ma Xiulian wasn’t surprised, only saying, “I fought for this grain sunning job from the team leader.
I also decide who does this job in the family.
If you want to stay in the grain sunning ground, go speak to the team leader yourself.”
Her tone was neither light nor heavy, but it didn’t allow for any form of argument.
Li Chunhua’s eyes immediately welled up, her face alternating between pale and flushed.
With her slender physique, it looked like she might faint any second.
Tch, such a drama queen!
Zhou Zhaodi gave her a sideways glance and continued gnawing on her coarse grain bread.
Zhao Mei being a kind and honest person felt sympathy for Li Chunhua, “Let the third sister-in-law stay at the grain sunning ground, after all, she just finished her confinement.”
Without a second thought, Ma Xiulian replied, “No way!
You need to come back home regularly to nurse the baby.”
Then she glared at Li Chunhua, rebuking mercilessly, “It’s not like you haven’t done this before, who are you acting weak for?
You think you can become a wealthy lady just from sitting out your confinement, why don’t you just ascend to heaven?!”
Li Chunhua blushed painfully in embarrassment and discomfort, shrinking her head and wishing she could burrow into the ground.
The others in the old Chen Family continued eating their porridge and bread as usual, completely unconcerned.
It was only natural for a mother-in-law to discipline her disobedient daughter-in-law.

After finishing their meal, Ma Xiulian showered Helian Qiao with affection before reluctantly leaving for work in the fields,
But she was always worried, frequently looking up at the clear sky, and during a collective break, she couldn’t resist but returned home.
Upon entering the eldest son’s room, she saw Dani and Erni changing diapers for her little granddaughter while making funny faces that had her giggling.
Dani and Erni were standing with their backs to her and didn’t immediately notice grandmother’s return.
But Helian Qiao could see and started waving her little hand, calling for her in babbling sounds.
Grandma, why are you home this early today?
Taking only a little over a month, the granddaughter of the Golden Dragon Clan had already started speaking with a local accent under her grandmother’s influence.
Hearing the soft, sweet voice of her granddaughter, Ma Xiulian who had been working under the scorching sun for half a day felt refreshed and not as heated.
She walked over, bent down and asked her little granddaughter smilingly, “Guibao, do you miss your grandma?”

Her clothes were drenched with sweat, and she didn’t smell good, thus she didn’t pick up her little granddaughter.
And Helian Qiao replied with a couple of soft “uh-huh”s.
This was the typical daily conversation between the grandma-granddaughter duo.
