When the two rushed into the room, they found that Lu Xiangze was the only one there.
They were even happier.
Now that Lu Xiangze's leg is lame, they could just snatch it and run away.
Chen Ximei rushed into the kitchen.
Regardless of whether Lu Xiangze was present or not.
They immediately started rummaging through drawers and cabinets.
But after searching through everything, she found a few bowls and chopsticks, and a small bag of cornmeal.
There's really nothing else.
There was only a salt jar and an oil jar on the stove.
There were no other seasonings.
Chen Ximei was unhappy and picked up the cornmeal.
Even a small mosquito bite is still a piece of meat. Now, she gets anxious if she doesn't find 2,000 yuan a day.
And she could only tell outsiders that it was 200 yuan, which was really frustrating.
Lu Xiaomei arrived a little late, after Chen Ximei had finished getting ready.
The two looked at each other, and Lu Xiaomei shook her head.
Chen Ximei immediately pouted.
Lifting the lid of the steaming pot, you can see corn porridge cooking inside.
I immediately lost my appetite.
"Weren't you so capable? You even cut ties and ran away, and now you can only eat cornmeal? What about your comrades? Weren't they singing so well at the gate before? Now they know to run away?"
Chen Ximei looked mocking.
Lu Xiangze didn't stop adding firewood to the fire. He just glanced at her indifferently.
That's no different from looking at a dead person.
Chen Ximei took an uncomfortable step back.
He was holding the cornmeal tightly in his hand.
"I'll consider this half-bag of cornmeal as a token of your filial piety."
I advise you to let it go.
"Pah! Why should I listen to you, little sister? Let's go."
He then strode out.
But before she had gone halfway, suddenly, a gust of wind flashed by. A knife slashed past Chen Ximei.
It slammed into the wall.
Next to her was Lu Xiaomei, who was quickly dodging.
She quickly explained.
"I just instinctively flinched; I didn't do it on purpose."
Chen Ximei was about to lose her temper.
"How dare you hit your sister! Do you have a death wish?" Chen Ximei searched around for something.
He found a stool, raised it high, and was about to smash it down on Lu Xiangze.
This scene blends with scenes from my childhood.
Lu Xiangze's eyes grew even colder, devoid of any warmth.
He grabbed the stool that was falling down and easily snatched it from his hand.
"You have no right to touch a single thread here. If you dare to touch it again, watch out for your claws."
Chen Ximei immediately questioned loudly.
"I'm your mother, I raised you myself. How dare you lay a hand on me?! You ungrateful wolf cub!"
You wolf cub!
Some images flashed through Lu Xiangze's mind.
He immediately told them to leave.
“We severed ties publicly, and you said you didn’t want me to support you. So don’t even think about taking a single penny from me today.”
Chen Ximei pointed at Lu Xiangze's nose, her chest heaving violently.
She felt a rush of heat to her head and remained silent for a long time.
Lu Xiaomei quickly went to help her up.
She originally intended to take everyone away directly, but Lu Xiangze startled her.
He sat on the stool, swinging a knife back and forth as if playing with it.
Lu Xiaomei immediately understood what he meant.
"Mother, this thing is bad luck. If we eat it, it will ruin our fortune."
Chen Ximei immediately threw the bag on the ground in disgust.
Lu Xiangze remained motionless, his gaze lingering on the scene.
Lu Xiaomei immediately picked it up and placed it on the stove. She then grabbed Chen Ximei and ran out, afraid that if they were a step too late, the knife would fall on her.
Lu Xiangze and the others left.
The fingers gripped the bag of cornmeal.
The bag vanished instantly.
This place appeared out of nowhere.
His hand was cut and his clothes were dirty; he had just changed his clothes.
The emerald green jade ring fell out.
When he picked it up.
The blood from my hands got on it.
The next moment, he was in another place.
One of the instructions said that this is a storage space.
They could also occasionally exchange gold and silver jewelry for grains and vegetables.
Those gold and silver can't be used outside now, so exchanging them for these would be a good idea.
Once he found that things could be stored and accessed normally, he put some things that were inconvenient to be displayed into his space.
For example, that 2000 yuan.
All of these are the bonuses and allowances he earned from his hard work on missions over the years.
This money was earned with his life, yet these people squandered it instead of using it to treat his illness.
He was truly heartbroken.
So when Xiao Liu snatched the things back and gave them to him, he didn't refuse.
He wasn't their child, yet he helped support the Lu family for so many years.
I never imagined I wouldn't even get a shred of respect in return.
He had seen Lu Xiaomei's reaction just now.
This person is definitely up to something.
The dagger from before won't hurt her.
Her reaction should have been similar to Chen Ximei's, but she noticed it immediately.
They even dodged it.
Like a well-trained person.
He casually picked up a cabbage and washed it clean.
While thinking about something, I tore the cabbage into pieces and threw it into the pot.
After it was cooked, he picked up the cornmeal porridge and took a sip.
Surprisingly, it tasted pretty good.
A warm current flowed towards my limbs.
Especially the injured leg.
His legs are actually fine enough for him to walk normally.
The follow-up examination results were also very good.
Now he has a feeling that perhaps he can recover even better.
Is this a coincidence?
It got completely dark.
A dark figure darted out of the dilapidated courtyard and headed straight for the back mountain...
Early the next morning.
cloudy day.
The corn in the field is ready for harvest.
Today's task is not easy.
When they arrived at the field, the corn leaves and stalks were already withered and yellow, and Su Qiao was assigned to pick corn.
Aunt Sun was as capable as ever.
He greeted Su Qiao happily when he saw her.
After all, it's always better to work with a hardworking girl than with others.
Aunt Sun moved with practiced ease, gripping the corn stalk with her left hand and snapping it off with her right. Then she simply stepped on the harvested corn.
Su Qiao followed suit.
At first, I couldn't quite grasp the technique, but after a dozen or so tries, I gradually got the hang of it.
The work point recorder who was passing by saw this and nodded repeatedly.
This young girl is really efficient at her work.
It's a pity she was disfigured, otherwise I could have introduced her to his nephew.
Su Qiao now basically never leaves her scarf behind.
No one can see her true face.
Everyone thought she was really disfigured.
If Su Qiao knew about this misunderstanding, she would probably be even happier, as it would save her the trouble of being pressured to get married.
Why not?
In no time, Su Qiao had harvested about a third of the area and filled a basket.
After greeting Aunt Sun, the two of them carried the baskets to a spot a few hundred meters from the cornfield.
There are people there who specialize in handling corn and are responsible for threshing it.
Yao Qing and Li Yanhong sat there.
The movements of his hands were not particularly fast.
Su Qiao ignored it, said something to the work point recorder next to her, and returned to the field.
"This Su educated youth seems to be a capable worker."
Yao Qing said in a low voice.
Li Yanhong absentmindedly hummed in agreement.
