Just by thinking that he has to harvest the wheat in their fields in a few days, Bai Erzhu felt his head was aching. His elder brother's legs were hurt. He can't count on the women in the family. He has to do it alone, but all the good benefits fell on his elder brother's hand, so how can he be willing?
Old Lady Bai was full of anger, she has no place to vent it out, but Bai Erzhu suddenly hit her limit. Old Lady Bai walked out of the house and pointed her finger to Bai Erzhu: "Who are you? Are you still my son? Why do have to help outsiders? What is there in your head? Pig manure?"
This time, Bai Erzhu also fired up in anger. He stood up and kicked the chair, then angrily said: "I have pig manure in my head? What about in your head? Our Bai Family originally have a good life, but what about now? Who made all this?"
Every time he thinks about this matter, his blood was boiling in anger. In the beginning, when Zhao Lan and Bai Zhi was still in the house, he had foods to eat and he can go out without any worries. He also just need to do some simple work. If he didn't do a good job, Zhao Lan will do it again without any complaint.
But now what? He worked alone in the fields, the women in their family only stay at home. He doesn't know how long this will take.
Old Lady Bai was shocked, this second son of her has always been timid. He was much coward than his elder brother. He had never shouted in anger at her before: "What do you think you’re doing? Do you want to eat me alive? Did you forgot that I am your mother?"
Bai Erzhu was still in a bad mood, but what can he do? The person in front of him was his mother. He climbed out of her womb. He drinks her milk until he grew up, how can he continue to fight with her?
Bai Erzhu kicked the chair again and walked away.
Seeing that the old lady still wants to catch up, Mrs. Liu busily pulled her: "Niang, forget it, just forget it."
Old Lady Bai find it strange: "You don't want me to clean up my second son? What happened today? Did you had a character change?"
Mrs. Liu smiled and said “Niang, what are you saying? When did I ask you to clean up your second son? We are a family. And the family is the most important thing in this world, how can we fight each other?"
Old Lady Bai was not stupid. What kind of a person Mrs. Liu is? No one else knew her character more than her. If she will not gain something, she will not think her second son as a family. This so-called family in her mouth definitely has a purpose.
Her husband's legs were hurt. Her second son, Bai Xiaofeng only wants to study. Her first son, Bai Dabao has no strength to work in the field. The only person left who can work in the field was Bai Erzhu. If she fights with him, she will get in trouble.
Thinking of this, Old Lady Bai's anger also disappeared. It's not really the right time to fight with her second son. She shouldn't anger him. She also should show respect.
After considering things, Old Lady Bai said to Mrs. Liu: "At noon, you cook thick porridge, let the second family eat first."

The next morning, Bai Zhi didn't light up the lamp in their house. She only got out of bed and then went to the entrance of the village to meet up with Awu. Awu rushed to entrance with the carriage. The horse was not seriously injured. After two days of treatment, it almost recovered.
“Don't you really want to go with Hu Feng?" Awu asked.
Bai Zhi shook her head: “We can't go with him. His injury in the head is still not good. If his brain shook again and again in the bumpy road, it will be troublesome. I don't know if I can deal with it."
Bai Zhi then asked Awu: "Did you brought things with you?"
