Waaaaah...
Jiang Tangtang was filled with indignation.
She absolutely mustn't fall for it!
Love can make people unhappy!
Falling in love with a man who gives you a negative impression score of 30 and a zero attraction score will only double the misfortune.
Waaaaah...
On the other side, Lu Shiyan, who had already come into the forest to pick leaves, felt a dull pain in his heart and sighed helplessly.
Just how much does she cry?
Crying three times a day, is it like eating crying?
Didn't we already pick leaves as she asked? Why is she still crying?
Lu Shiyan thought women were really troublesome, even more difficult to understand than the most mysterious and unfathomable magic in the world.

"Third sister-in-law, I just boiled the dry rations with the thorny stuffing you mentioned, and they softened quite a bit. Would you like me to boil your and third brother's dry rations for you?"
As Zhou Qiongniang spoke, she asked curiously, "By the way, where's my third brother? I haven't seen him."
Jiang Tangtang glanced at Zhou Qiongniang listlessly, "We went up the mountain."
"Why are you going up the mountain again? Didn't you just come down?" Zhou Qiongniang glanced at the sky, full of confusion.
You've rested for so long, it's almost time to set off again.
While the men from other families are taking this opportunity to sit down and rest, why is my brother-in-law still running into the mountains?
"I wanted to eat beggar's chicken tonight, so he went to the mountains to find spices and leaves for me." The possibility that she had fallen for the male lead instead of him made Jiang Tangtang feel utterly hopeless, and her voice was weak and listless.
Zhou Qiongniang now admires her delicate third sister-in-law from the bottom of her heart. Even though they are fleeing famine, she is still particular about what she eats, insisting on having beggar's chicken and making her husband brave the scorching sun to go up the mountain to find spices for her.
Even so, she's still not satisfied. Look at her, with such a bitter and resentful expression.
Zhou Qiongniang couldn't hold back any longer and said frankly, "Third sister-in-law, I may not be able to say what I'm saying, but I'm really doing this for your own good. How long has it been since Third Brother was seriously injured?"
Such severe injuries would not have survived for most people; only my third brother, with his strong constitution, could survive. But even the strongest body cannot withstand such torment!
You only have one child now…
She was still mute. Zhou Qiongniang didn't say this aloud, afraid of upsetting Jiang Tangtang. She just said, "You'll have children eventually, right? You should stop now! Men's bodies are too damaged. You'll suffer the consequences later."
Thanks to Zhou Qiongniang's kindness, the troubled Jiang Tangtang suddenly had a moment of enlightenment.
She could never fall in love with any man.
She was simply thirsty for the body of a young man because she hadn't enjoyed it in so long.
Whether a man is like a mosquito bite or the red rose in your heart, just see if you've gotten him or not.
Once she gets his body, she probably won't even glance at him.
If you want to take another look, it means you haven't had enough fun yet.
She just needs to sleep with him a few more times; after a few more times, she'll definitely get tired of him. In short, she will never fall in love with a man; she can rest assured.
The system, having heard Jiang Tangtang's thoughts: [...]
This thought process is simply unbearable to watch.
Feeling that she had figured out a solution, Jiang Tangtang instantly perked up and said with a beaming smile, "Thank you, Second Sister-in-law, I understand!"
Zhou Qiongniang was flattered. "Do you still need the dry rations cooked? I'll cook them for you and bring them over in a bit. You can close your eyes and rest for a while."
Jiang Tangtang handed the family's food rations to Zhou Qiongniang, saying, "Cook it, why aren't you cooking it?"
How can you have the energy to sleep with a man if you don't eat your fill?
Zhou Qiongniang knew that Jiang Tangtang was delicate and was worried that if she dropped ashes into the jar, Jiang Tangtang would be disgusted, so she was very careful when cooking dry food.
Luo Taohua pouted at her cautious manner, "Second sister-in-law, it's no use being careful. This is just a pot of wild vegetable porridge. People have pheasants to eat, why would they care about this?"
Before Zhou Qiongniang could speak, Luo Taohua received a glare from Su Shi. "If you're not going to help with the work, don't make sarcastic remarks. Didn't you eat the pheasant your third brother hunted? Didn't you eat the food your third sister-in-law found? You're so greasy and shiny, and you're still annoying. Don't eat it next time."
"Mom, you're so biased. I'm not the only one who doesn't do any work, but you scold me."
Luo Taohua retorted, "I was the one who gathered this firewood. How did I not help? I just don't know how to flatter like some people do."
"If you were as smart as the third son's wife and as capable as the second son's wife, I wouldn't scold you."
Madam Su said, "Don't think I'm blind. You were dawdling the whole time while you were gathering firewood. Most of this firewood was gathered by the eldest son and the children."
While the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were exchanging barbs, Zhou Qiongniang had already cooked a dry food porridge.
Moldy cakes mixed with cactus certainly don't look very appealing.
Jiang Tangtang forced a smile and thanked Zhou Qiongniang, then ladled a bowl for Lu Chenyan, saying, "Eat up!"
Although she didn't look very appealing, the Lu family often forgot about her when they distributed rations in the past.
The little boy, who had been starving for a long time, didn't mind that the dry food and wild vegetable porridge didn't look very appetizing. He picked up his chopsticks and ate it heartily.
Watching the child wolf down the wild vegetable porridge as if it were the most delicious thing in the world, Jiang Tangtang felt a pang of sadness. "Eat slowly, don't burn yourself. There's plenty more here, and more will come after you finish this."
Lu Chenyan looked up at Jiang Tangtang for a while, as if he suddenly realized something, picked up the bowl and brought it to Jiang Tangtang's mouth, wanting to feed her.
Jiang Tangtang followed his lead and took a sip of the paste into her mouth.
The porridge made by simmering chopped cactus and dry rations over low heat has a grassy taste and is a bit rough on the throat when swallowed.
This is the worst thing Jiang Tangtang has ever eaten in her life.
Yet, even with such a precious thing, her adopted son treated it like a treasure, eagerly feeding it to her.
Jiang Tangtang felt a pang of sympathy and wanted to pat the little boy's head, but she withdrew her hand halfway through.
The little boy is cute, but he hasn't washed his hair in so long, it's probably greasy. Let's skip the intimate gestures!
She smiled at him and said, "You eat it yourself! I'm not hungry."
Lu Chenyan still insisted on feeding Jiang Tangtang.
A child's world is simple: if she's good to him, he'll be good to her in return. He even felt a little guilty for having been so focused on eating that he hadn't fed his mother first.
Resentful of her eldest son's filial piety, Jiang Tangtang could only reluctantly eat a few more bites. "Mother is already full and can't eat anymore. Xiaoyan, you can eat by yourself."
Lu Chenyan carefully observed Jiang Tangtang's expression and, seeing that she really didn't want to eat, took it back and started eating heartily.
Lu Chenyan ate two bowls in one go and still wanted to eat more, but Jiang Tangtang was afraid that he would eat too much at once and have an upset stomach, so she held his hand and stopped him from eating anymore.
"Mom will make delicious beggar's chicken for Xiaoyan tonight. How about we skip this porridge for now?" Jiang Tangtang looked at the child gently. "Don't worry, you won't go hungry anymore. You'll have food every meal."
