Chapter 234: Very Hungry
Their eyes met and they were both stunned.
Dingxiang was stunned because she didn't expect someone to come here so late at night, while Qiao Xuan didn't expect Dingxiang to be so calm and composed, not looking depressed, desperate or pitiful at all.
I have to say that this person's psychological quality is really not to be underestimated.
The bored Dingxiang's eyes instantly fell on the small basket in Qiao Xuan's hand. She seemed to smell the fragrance of the food. She swallowed with a "gulp" and her eyes lit up.
"Yes, is there anything to eat?" Dingxiang licked her lips and asked in a hoarse voice.
Hungry, she was really very hungry.
In that home that didn't feel like home at all, we never had enough to eat. And after being locked up in the ancestral hall today, no one came to bring us dinner.
When she heard the footsteps just now, she thought it was her mother Zhou, but it turned out not to be her.
I feel a little disappointed, but it's not too much.
After all, Zhou was weak and the old woman was overbearing and domineering. She would definitely be on guard against Zhou bringing her food. Zhou had no choice but to cry.
But, after all, she is the mother of this body. She can't even protect her own child. She has to watch her child being tortured by her own family members without being able to do anything. As a daughter, she still feels heartbroken.
She was so hungry that she didn't even want to ask the woman why she appeared in front of her at this time. She just wanted to eat.
Qiao Xuan smiled, but felt relieved in her heart.
She was a little worried on the way, wondering how to start talking to Ding Xiang. Who knew she was so straightforward?
But I have to say, her personality is quite to my liking.
Thinking about how she had confronted Master Ding Wu's family so forcefully, Qiao Xuan couldn't help but secretly sigh in her heart: It's really different!
She is indeed different from an ordinary peasant girl!
"Oh, yes. Here, drink some water first. I added some honey to the water."
Qiao Xuan nodded, squatted forward, and took out food and drinks for Dingxiang.
Ding Xiang picked up the teapot, poured the tea into the empty bowl with shaking hands, and drank the whole bowl in one breath. Then she breathed a sigh of relief, licked her lips, and said with emotion and intoxication: "It's so sweet!"
She couldn't wait to pick up the bowl and eat again.
Qiao Xuan knew that she must have a hard time at home and must be hungry, so she didn't dare to bring her any meat. She only brought a large bowl of white rice, a plate of bamboo shoots and a few slices of porcini and red mushrooms.
Even so, to Dingxiang, it seemed like a rare delicacy and she ate it up in ravenous mouthfuls.
After finishing the meal, Dingxiang wiped her mouth and put down her bowl and chopsticks reluctantly.
My eyes became hot and I almost cried.
How did she end up in this hellhole? She couldn't even have a bowl of rice! It turns out that having a full stomach is such a happy and precious thing!
"By the way," Ding Xiang suppressed her tears and smiled at Qiao Xuan, "You are the second Miss Qiao who married into the family of the county magistrate from the Shao family's main branch in the east of the village, right? How come you brought me food? But no matter what, thank you!"
Qiao Xuan had already determined that she was extraordinary, so it was no surprise that she guessed it was her. After all, she wasn't bragging, but compared to ordinary village girls and women, there was still some difference, right?
"You guessed it right," Qiao Xuan smiled and said, "I, I just think that Master Ding Wu and the others went too far, so - you don't have to thank me."
Ding Xiang smiled to herself: "So, you sympathize with me? Or do you want to thank me?"
