All the people present were mothers, and they felt horrified and anxious when they heard these words.

Lu Lan hugged the child tightly in her arms, touched his round belly, and wished she could feed him again.

"What are you talking about!"

Wang Taozhi patted her shoulder and said, "What a scary thing to say! Pah, pah, pah, three times! It's unlucky!"

"This is scientifically based."

"I don't care about science, I just want to keep your mouth shut. This is your nephew, and you don't even consider the occasion."

He Ruixue was a little embarrassed. "I didn't think before I spoke. How could an adult really have the heart to starve a child for such a long time?"

"Of course not. Have you forgotten the famine a few years ago? Several families had babies exactly like the one you described. They were so quiet it was unsettling. Every once in a while I had to check if they were still breathing. They all survived by drinking rice soup."

"Yes, if one person dies in our yard, one person in the neighboring yard will starve to death. It's a sin to be born in a famine."

Seeing the atmosphere getting heavier, He Ruixue quickly changed the subject and said to her sister-in-law, "Did you see the things I brought you? They are all good things I collected in the mountains."

She didn't give any medicinal herbs to her family because she was afraid they wouldn't know what they were. Instead, she gave them mountain products and meat.

"I see. You spend all that money like it just fell from the sky. Don't you feel bad about it? I saw it. A goose, two chickens, and the boss's two dried lamb legs. Not to mention the mushrooms and chestnuts, the meat alone must have been quite a lot of money. How much did you spend?"

Wang Taozhi said these words with heartache, but her eyes kept wandering around the faces of the people around her.

It's one thing to feel bad about the money, but it does make you look good.

She must remember these people's expressions in her heart and savor them slowly when she gets back.

"Not much. They are all honest people. The products are good and the prices are right. Otherwise, I wouldn't buy so much."

Wang Taozhi couldn't control her and said helplessly, "Anyway, you have everything you need now, so you can spend it however you want."

Everyone present rolled their eyes when they heard this.

He is really taking advantage of others. If their family had such a promising and generous girl, they would be happy even in their dreams.
