In the evening, when Zhuo Yingping went out to work, Wang Guifeng's abuse of her granddaughter became more and more excessive, calling her a "money-loser" and a "little bitch"...
"You're such a grown-up, and you still have the nerve to stay at home and fight with your brother for food. Are your hands or legs disabled? Don't you know how to go out and find food for yourself?
Short-lived ghost, you should have died outside long ago..."
Zhuo Ling held a flashlight and cleaned up the dead mosquitoes on the ground. She ignored all the unpleasant words.
I just ate a bucket of instant noodles in the supermarket. My stomach feels warm and my good mood is not affected at all.
Wang Guifeng looked at her suspiciously, feeling that something was wrong.
Logically speaking, this little girl hasn't eaten for two days and should have no strength now.
But she looks very energetic.
Thinking of a possibility, Wang Guifeng kicked the girl in the knee. Zhuo Ling was caught off guard and fell forward and knelt on the ground.
"You bastard, you actually dared to steal my food. I'll beat you to death!"
Wang Guifeng charged her with a crime without even asking any questions. She couldn't escape the beating today, no matter whether she had cheated on her food or not.
She picked up the clothes hanger and hit Zhuo Ling hard on the back, each time with greater force.
The little boy on the bed was holding a half-empty bottle of mineral water.
He clapped his hands excitedly, his smile bright and innocent.
"Oh my! My sister made grandma angry and got beaten again!"
Zhuo Ling was trembling, her body curled up into a ball, her eyes were as dry as cracked soil, and she could no longer shed tears.
She had rebelled before, running outside and complaining to her father.
After Zhuo Yingping learned that the old lady had hit someone, he had a big quarrel with Wang Guifeng.
The situation was peaceful for only a few days. When Zhuo Yingping walked out of the house, Zhuo Ling was met with even more brutal beatings.
As long as she stayed in this house for one day, she had to grit her teeth and endure it.
She used to eat less and had no strength to fight back, but now... she doesn’t dare.
Although Zhuo Yingping was on her side, Wang Guifeng was also his biological mother. If Zhuo Ling attacked her, she would really be kicked out and become homeless.
…
Bang, bang, bang—
There was a knock on the door.
Xu Da's hair was messy and his face was irritable. Lack of sleep made him so angry that he wanted to kill someone.
"It's late at night and you're making so much noise, can't you let me sleep?"
The sound coming from outside the door calmed Wang Guifeng down a bit and she stopped what she was doing.
She stared at the half-dead person on the ground, her eyes rolled, and she quickly walked to the door and opened it a crack.
"Xu Da, it's you. I was so mad at that damn girl just now that I forgot it's already evening. I'm sorry."
When dealing with outsiders, she was very polite, without any trace of the ferocity she showed when beating people.
Xu Da's anger subsided a little, but his face was still ashen, and he warned sternly:
"Don't let me hear any more noise in your house!"
Seeing him turning around and about to leave, Wang Guifeng hurriedly called out to him.
The man turned his head impatiently, "What's the matter? Is there anything else?"
A meaningful smile appeared in Wang Guifeng's eyes as she looked at the man's lower body.
"Xu Da, you live alone, full of passion, and can't let it out. Aren't you afraid of getting sick from holding it in?
Have you ever thought about finding a woman?"
Hearing this, Xu Da's brows knitted into knots, and he looked her up and down with disdain: "You are so old, I am not that hungry and will eat anything."
The air around them was quiet for a moment.
Wang Guifeng's mouth was stiff, she bit her back teeth and continued to speak:
"What are you thinking? I mean, Zhuo Ling, are you interested?
She is young and in good health, and has never been with anyone else. If you buy her, you will be her first man.
I don’t ask for much, just two bottles of water and two pieces of bread.”
Xu Da stared at her in disbelief. How could this old woman do such a thing as selling her own daughter while the father was away?
"Lao Zhuo and I are friends, and Lingling is only fifteen years old, a generation younger than me. I won't do anything worse than an animal."
Wang Guifeng didn't believe that he wouldn't be moved, and she was thinking about how to convince him.
"Things are different now than they were before. In the apocalypse, who cares about these things anymore just to survive?"
Xu Da felt that the old woman was unreasonable. She had only said that before, but now she was targeting him.
"Lao Zhuo has a stable job and gets paid every week. Although your family is large, no one will starve to death.
What's more, there's now a Shuguang Supermarket, so there won't be any worries about food and drink in the short term. Why can't Zhuo Ling survive?"
Some people will sell their bodies for food in order to make a living. If they want to survive, there is nothing wrong with their behavior and no one can stop them.
But Zhuo Ling is not in that situation. Her family has enough supplies and her father works in a hotel and has a stable income.
This condition is already better than that of most ordinary people.
The only unlucky thing is that he has such a stubborn grandmother.
In the past, when the family only had compressed biscuits to eat, Wang Guifeng didn’t feel so resentful. But now that conditions have improved, she can’t tolerate Zhuo Ling even more.
She felt extremely upset when she thought that the dead girl would take away her grandson's things.
Those were clean and precious foods, and when they were eaten by that little girl Zhuo Ling, it was like feeding them to a dog.
Pure waste of food.
Although Xu Da rejected her, Wang Guifeng did not give up the idea.
After closing the door, I was still looking for other suitable candidates in my mind.
There are quite a few bachelors in this building. If she asks them one by one, she will definitely be able to find a buyer to take over.
