"Aunt He, can I borrow some food from you? I can't buy food in the county town.

The village chief doesn't have any food to sell to me.

I also wrote a letter to my father, but the letter probably didn't arrive, so my father didn't reply to me.

Aunt He is looking at you. Since you have watched me grow up since I was a child, can you lend me some food?"

Looking at Zeng Yu in front of her, He's mother rolled her eyes silently in her heart.

Could it be that Zeng Yu thinks that everyone in the He family is as heartless as He Huaishi?

The Zeng family stabbed the He family in the back, causing them to be in this situation today, and they still hope that they can help her now.

After waiting for a long time without any reply from He's mother, Zeng Yu realized that He's mother probably didn't want to lend him food, so he changed the subject and said.

"Aunt He, the reason I came here is because I feel very sorry for you.

My father did something wrong and hurt your family.

I just hope that I can make up for this mistake, so I came to the countryside, thinking that I could do something for you.

Aunt He, I know that because of what my father did, you have opinions about our family and me.

But I think after my unremitting efforts, Aunt He, you will definitely be able to see my sincerity. I really want to make up for the mistakes my father made."

Zeng Yu thought that he had already admitted his mistake, and He's mother would finally be soft-hearted.

To be honest, He's mother is the softest-hearted person she has ever met. As long as He's mother forgives her, the He family will not bother with her.

Unexpectedly, He's mother looked at her with a smile in her eyes and said.

"Zeng Zhiqing, let's forget about the past. I don't want to dwell on it anymore.

It’s nice that our family is together here now.

As for what you said about coming to the countryside to make up for your father's mistakes.

So, are you coming to me to borrow food now to make up for the mistakes made by your Zeng family?"

Hearing this, Zeng Yu never thought that Aunt He, who was always so nice to her, would actually say such a thing.

In the past, Aunt He would care about whether she was cold or hot, whether she had eaten enough, and whether she was in a good mood.

But now Aunt He treated her so coldly, completely lacking the concern she had before.

"Zeng Zhiqing, I think you may have misunderstood.

You came to borrow food from us, but we have no food to lend you. This is a fact.

If you don’t believe it, you can come to our kitchen and take a look.

We now rely entirely on the wild vegetables that Xiaoyu and Huaishi pick in the mountains to survive every day."

After hearing this, Zeng Yu decided not to continue to argue. After all, if she continued, it would be bad if Aunt He became even more disgusted with her.

So Zeng Yu's next target was He Huaishu.

Only then did he hurriedly say goodbye to the He family and prepare to go find He Huaishu.

But before Zeng Yu found He Huaishu, he saw Yu Wan.

Yu Wan was alone at this time, squatting by the pond, not knowing what he was doing.

This pond is the collective property of the village. Even if there are fish in it, no matter how hungry the villagers are, they cannot catch the fish unless the village chief is notified.

Zeng Yu originally wanted to ignore Yu Wan and go around her to find He Huaishu directly.

But at this moment, Zeng Yu stopped for some unknown reason and looked around.

The people in the village were either busy farming in the fields or looking for wild vegetables in the mountains. At this time, there was no one by the pond.

At this time, Zeng Yu stood on tiptoe and approached Yu Wan cautiously.

step,

Two steps,

Three steps,

…

Yu Wan didn't notice anything at all. Instead, he was concentrating on looking at the pond, wondering when the village chief would be notified so that they could eat the fish in the pond.

Zeng Yu had already walked behind Yu Wan at this time. He gritted his teeth, reached out his hand to push Yu Wan, then turned around and ran away quickly.

Yu Wan was swallowing his saliva while looking at the fish, silently recalling the aroma of the grilled fish, when he heard the sound of the system.

"Host, be careful!"

The next second, someone pushed him hard from behind.

Yu Wan lost his balance and fell forward, falling into the water.

Yu Wan just thrashed around twice in the initial panic, choked on two mouthfuls of river water, and then quickly swam back to the shore.

Fortunately, she can swim, otherwise, she would have drowned here today and no one would have known.

After Zeng Yu pushed Yu Wan, he ran away quickly.

Running to a secluded wood, Zeng Yu squatted down against a tree trunk.

Looking at his trembling hands, and could clearly hear the "boom, boom, boom" sound of his accelerated heartbeat.

Zeng Yu had never done such a thing before. At this moment, he felt panic and indescribable joy.

In her opinion, the He family's current attitude towards her was all because Yu Wan had gone to the He family.

As long as Yu Wan disappears, the He family will treat her the same as before.

There is no other woman around He Huaishu, so he has a greater chance.

At this time, He's mother was at home looking at wild vegetables and thinking about how to change the taste.

Yu Wan's appetite has obviously not been as good as before these days. Every night he only eats a few bites and then goes back to his room to rest.

At this moment, the door of the yard was suddenly pushed open. When He's mother turned around, she saw Yu Wan standing at the door, soaked all over.

He's mother immediately dropped the wild vegetables in her hand and quickly ran to Yu Wan's side with an anxious look on her face.

"Xiao Yu, what happened? Why are you soaked?

Come on, I'll get you some clothes. Go take a shower and don't catch a cold."
