Exiled in a Famine Year, the Peasant Girl is Spoiled by a Powerful Official

Shen Xinli transmigrated one day to become a seven-year-old peasant girl. Originally, she held no hope for her new life, but the care and love from her family changed her perspective.

Transmi...

Chapter 49 The Last Supper

The sun sets.

Chen Xinli, her second uncle and her eldest brother then took a ox cart back to Qianniu Village.

The Shen family's dinner today was very sumptuous and late.

Chicken stewed with mushrooms, stir-fried lamb with green onions, braised pork, braised chicken pieces, crispy pork, steamed egg, garlic beans, cucumber and egg, cold bamboo shoots, and a mushroom egg drop soup.

Nine dishes and one soup, perfect.

Farmers don’t have so many rules. The whole family eats together at a dining table made up of two wooden tables.

But at this moment, no one could be happy.

Even Shen Jinlin didn't dare to shout loudly.

Chen Xinyu quietly glanced at the four adults' expressions and then lowered her head again.

He still felt guilty for his arrival, which had brought so much trouble to his cousin's family.

Zhang Fangju rarely has emotional breakdowns, but now she can't hold it back any longer.

Thinking of the scene in the afternoon, the corners of her eyes suddenly became red.

In the afternoon, the twenty-year-old eldest brother of the Zhang family took time out to visit Qianniu Village.

He quietly stuffed a bag of copper coins into her pocket and left in a hurry.

Zhang Fangju counted it and found that there were less than nine hundred coins.

But every penny was wiped clean, as these were all saved up by my mother and brothers.

The Shen family had a bad reputation in Qianniu Village before.

In Sishui Village, the Zhang family also has a bad reputation.

Ever since the powerful eldest daughter got married, Mrs. Zhang was left alone with her three sons.

Only the Zhang family knows the hardships involved.

Zhang Fangju remembered what her eldest brother said before he left, "This is something my mother asked me to give to you, sister, you must take care of yourself," and she felt even more melancholy.

How could she not know what the situation was at home?

My mother works hard all day and her health has always been poor.

Although the work in the fields was done by my eldest and second oldest brothers, they were at the growing age and the food they grew was not enough to fill their stomachs.

Over the years, even if she wanted to help, she was powerless.

Therefore, my third brother went to the county to be an apprentice.

She had seen her third brother once during a holiday, and his arms were covered with bruises.

But the third brother said nothing and told her not to worry.

How could Zhang not worry?

She raised her three younger brothers.

An eldest sister is like a mother. When her three younger brothers were young, they were naughty and mischievous. Although she felt helpless, they were still her brothers.

Now her brothers know how to feel sorry for her, but she will never see her family again.

That's why Zhang Fangju shed tears of emotion.

Wu Yuehua was not much better off. Seeing her usually strong sister-in-law actually crying, she was immediately infected by her emotions.

Shen Fugui wanted to say something.

But his sister-in-law's tears moved his wife. He wanted to comfort her, but he also knew that his wife was just there to cry along with him.

I can only keep winking at my younger brother.

Shen Fuyou finally realized his wife's abnormality and nudged her with his elbow: "I say, why are you crying on such a beautiful day?"

"If you cry again, big brother will think I'm bullying you again."

Zhang looked at her husband's concerned yet somewhat rogue look and suddenly laughed out of anger!

Shen Fuyou is good at everything.

The best thing is a big heart, and the worst thing is also a big heart.

Seeing everyone looking at her with concern, Zhang immediately felt embarrassed: "Eat, eat, why are you looking at me? This is our last dinner!"

"The Last Supper?"

Chen Xinli's thoughts were pulled back. Why did it sound so unlucky to her?

"No, Second Aunt, this is not our last dinner, this is our new beginning."

"The days ahead will be like this too. Let's just treat this as a long journey. Once we're done, we can celebrate again."

"I suggest that we clink our bowls together, just to encourage ourselves and cheer ourselves up!"

Chen Xinli felt that the atmosphere at home was not right, so she decided to boost morale.

After all, if you lose your spirit, you will collapse.

She didn't want to feel uneasy before the family even set out.

"Yes, we have to cheer for ourselves!"

Zhang seemed to be startled and then realized something, and raised the bowl second.

The Shen family clinked their bowls together and started eating.

No matter what the road ahead holds, cheer yourself up and there will be new hope!

The Shen family was filled with laughter.

The Wu family could not calm down for a long time at night.

According to the doctor's diagnosis, Mrs. Wu's health had actually been declining for a long time and she was only being kept alive by a breath of air.

The fall at noon took away a lot of the old lady's energy and spirit.

Therefore, even if Mrs. Wu's waist is healed, she will not be able to do heavy work in the future and needs to rest well.

The Wu family’s lunch is prepared by the eldest son’s wife.

The eldest son's wife was very reluctant.

But my mother-in-law is now lying down and unable to move. Even if I have no conscience, I cannot be accused of being unfilial.

Liu Meiyu looked for a long time and finally chose to go back to her room.

Instead, the third daughter-in-law went to the kitchen to help the eldest sister-in-law.

When she got close to the old lady, Liu Meiyu quietly touched her lower back, which was swollen.

The old lady is so old and she has sprained her waist. I'm afraid she won't be able to recover in a short time. She also needs to take medicine, which is expensive and she can't work.

Between dividing the family and taking care of the old lady, Liu Meiyu suddenly had an idea.

Therefore, after learning the doctor's diagnosis, she began to urge the second son to separate.

The couple whispered in the room for a long time before they united as one.

The main problem is who will take care of my wife in her old age if the family is divided.

Liu Meiyu thought about it for an entire afternoon and finally came up with a solution.

Therefore, when the eldest daughter-in-law finally prepared dinner.

When Liu Meiyu mentioned this suggestion at the dinner table, the Wu family was immediately in an uproar.

"What? You actually let my parents go into exile with Yuehua?"

Mr. Wu was so angry that his face turned red and he threw the bowl.

Wu Laoer was so scared that he dodged backwards, and the broken pieces of the bowl almost hit his face.

Fortunately, this suggestion came from his wife.

Look at the look in his elder brother's eyes, it's like he wants to eat someone!

Wu Laosan and his wife looked at each other, neither saying support nor opposition.

Old man Wu was squatting at the doorstep, his face darker than the bottom of a pot.

He had never felt so unsuccessful in his life. What kind of rubbish was this?

After working hard for his sons for half his life, he was kicked out of the house by his sons at the end of his life, and he and his wife were exiled!

That's exile!

It’s not like we’re going sightseeing!

He could see that the second brother's family didn't want them to live!

When Old Mrs. Wu in the house heard the news, she burst into tears.
