Old Mrs. Su felt that the old tricks were no longer useful and she had to try a new approach.

Only then did he deliberately show weakness and lower his posture, even forcing a few tears out of his eyes, crying so pitifully.

The corner of Su Yunhai's mouth twitched. Is this old lady starting to use a trick?

"If you want water, exchange it for ten kilograms of food." Su Yunhai said directly.

Of course he couldn't just watch his loved ones die of thirst and starvation.

But we won’t let them take advantage of us.

As a son, you always have to do some work to save your reputation.

When Old Mrs. Su heard this, her eyes widened!

He looked at Su Yunhai in disbelief, as if he had never known this son.

In recent years, there has never been a shortage of food at home.

...

...

The second son never asked his family for anything, and even gave them one or two taels of silver every month.

Old Mrs. Su and her husband have gotten used to it.

Suddenly, the boss reached out to them.

She didn't react at all.

To be honest, it’s not that Old Mrs. Su doesn’t love her son.

It was because her son was too obedient. Later, when he became capable and filial, she thought her son was still as easy to control as before.

She has three sons, and some are definitely favored and some are neglected.

Who makes the second one so capable? He's not as sweet as the eldest one.

She became more and more biased towards the eldest brother's family, and gradually began to exploit and torture the second brother.

But Old Mrs. Su didn't realize this at all.

This is like the nature of the beast.

When a female animal gives birth to a baby, she only prefers the strongest one.

Not only do the sick and weak ones not receive special care, they may even abandon or eat the weakest children in order to feed the strongest ones.

In the world of wild beasts, only the strongest can survive longer and pass on their bloodline.

In the ancient world, many parents also engaged in this unconscious behavior.

It’s just that they are more thoughtful than beasts and will love the children they like.

Even if the child is the weakest, any one will do as long as they prefer.

They will subconsciously let the other less favored children feed the one they like the most.

It's human nature.

But for the exploited children, it is a shadow of pain.

"Second brother, are you trying to force mother to death? There are so many people in the Su family, but there is only so much food left. How can you steal our food!"

"Mom, I have so many people to feed at home, and I only have this bucket of water left. How can you snatch it from your son? Am I not your son? Are you going to force your son and his family to die?"

Su Yunhai looked at Old Lady Su helplessly and chose to use magic to defeat magic.

Mrs. Su: ...

She was so choked that she didn't know what to say.

In order to eat pheasant soup and eggs, she decided to give in.

"Five kilograms of food at most, no more!"

Su Yunhai didn't expect the old lady to give in. He thought she wouldn't give anything, or even only one or two kilograms at most.

I didn’t expect it to exceed my expectations.

It seems that the Su family is really out of water.

Old Mrs. Su quickly brought the food over.

When Su Yunhai opened it, he saw that it was full of aged black noodles.

Although he was very unhappy, he knew that the old lady had reached her limit.

"Wife, give mother two buckets of water. She gave us food." Su Yunhai handed the food to Shen Yuehua.

Shen Yuehua didn't even bother to open it, she could guess what was inside.

She used a gourd ladle to scoop two full scoops of water. This amount was definitely not enough for the Su family to cook, but it was enough for everyone to have a sip.

Many people in Taohua Village were short of water, and she couldn't put herself in danger.

"Daughter-in-law, the water is not enough. Please give me a few more scoops." Old Mrs. Su looked at the little water at the bottom of the pot and was very dissatisfied.

"I don't have a home anymore. You can just stay here for one more night and we can go to Qingzhou tomorrow." Shen Yuehua said with embarrassment.

Old Mrs. Su saw that there was half a barrel of water on the cart, but they only gave her a little.

It's really just enough for each member of the Shen family to have one bite.

But she had no choice, because the second son, the rebellious son, was watching her covetously, and she didn't dare to offend him.

When I think about entering Qingzhou tomorrow.

Old Mrs. Su rolled her eyes.

My mood suddenly improved a lot.

Her good granddaughter Wanwan is at the Lin family in Qingzhou.

After arriving in Qingzhou, they went to the Lin family to find Wanwan.

There will definitely be no shortage of food and water by then.

Maybe the Lin family will treat them to delicious food and drinks.

When the time comes, we must not let the second brother’s family have an easy time.

The second child used to dote on Wanwan the most, but now he doesn't like Wanwan because she is not his biological daughter.

Wanwan must be unhappy.

If he's unhappy, he'll definitely make trouble for that little girl, and then let's see what the second one will do when he's caught in the middle!

Shen Yuehua first fried two eggs for Shen Shuli in a small iron pan and let her daughter eat them with the meat porridge.

Shen Shuli was not polite, she had been wanting this for a long time.

Shen Yuehua fried her a soft-boiled egg, her favorite.

It's so satisfying to eat one bite at a time.

The boiled eggs were quickly cooked, cut in half, and placed on a plate before being sent to the Shen family.

There are a total of thirty-six people in the two branches of the Shen family, big and small.

The population is quite large.

The meal for both families had just been prepared. It was a porridge made from aged black flour.

Because there was not much water in the house, each person could only get half a bowl of porridge.

Fortunately, there are a lot of wild boar meat, bacon, and jerky at home.

You can eat half full with dry food.

But I can’t help but feel thirsty!

I sweated a lot while traveling, lost a lot of water, and my mouth and body felt very hot.

After finishing their meals, they were looking for a place to cool off.

"Mom and Dad, have you had a rest?" Shen Yuehua called softly.

Shen Huaian and his wife and their two brothers immediately stood up to greet them.

"No, we just finished eating. Yuehua, why are you here?" Old Mrs. Shen asked first.

"My daughter found a wild hen hatching eggs on the mountain. There were more than 30 eggs. She asked me to cook them all and send some to you. Come and eat them. They are so delicious. I also made some hen soup. It will be ready soon. I also put ginseng in it. Everyone can have a sip and then rest."

The Shen family heard what Shen Yuehua said and came over one by one.

They couldn't remember how long it had been since they had eaten eggs.

I can hardly remember the taste of eggs.

Old Man Shen knew that his daughter would not give them a chance to refuse, so he nodded and asked his eldest daughter-in-law to accept the things.

"My daughter, thank my granddaughter for me. I really don't know how to thank her. My Shen family owes her too much."

Shen Huaian was moved and couldn’t help but sigh, his eyes full of guilt.

His Shen family really has nothing to show off.

What's more, the granddaughter was raised in a big family like the Lin family, so she must have a very high vision and knowledge.

He was a poor farmer and scholar, and he really didn't know what to give her.

"Dad, why are you saying all this? Ah Li has everything she needs. She just wants you to stay healthy while fleeing the famine. That's the best reward for her. After we settle down, she wants you to love her granddaughter well."

Shen Yuehua comforted him patiently.

When Shen Huaian and his wife heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up.

During the journey, they were too busy to take care of themselves and paid less attention to their granddaughter who had just returned.

They are powerless.

If they wait until they are settled down, they will definitely cultivate a good relationship with their granddaughter.

Every member of the Shen family is full of expectations.
