Chapter 21 We're so poor, we have to share a sweet potato (2/2)



Most of the young people in that new era were kind.

If someone is good to them, they will be even better to that person.

But if they are bullied, they will not cower and suffer in silence.

Jiang Dai felt a sudden pang of sadness, but a smile appeared on her face.

"No need, just eat it rolled up!"

Juanjuan looked at her father.

Bai Tian smiled and said, "No need, Father doesn't eat, Juanjuan will."

I just felt increasingly heartbroken, filled with regret and sorrow.

[If I had known I was going to time travel, I would have learned some useful skills.]

I'm no good at farming, I'm bad at studying, I've always dreaded math and physics, and I'm not much of an inventor now. I was good at memorizing poetry in high school, though.

I just graduated from university, so I remember some things, but not nearly as much as I did in my senior year of high school.

After graduation, I wanted to relax and settle down, but my grandfather insisted I become self-reliant and kicked me out. I started a small internet company and, relying on short videos, I'm doing quite well.

The problem is, what kind of internet is available here?

Bai Tian felt utterly useless.

So, time travel is such a difficult thing.

Juanjuan looked down at the corner of the wall in confusion.

There lay a spider quietly, and beneath it was a beautiful and delicate spider web.

There's internet here!

"Father, Mother, you eat!"

Even the youngest sister knows to share the best food with her parents.

Bai Yunqi felt that he should follow suit, after all, being filial to one's parents is a commendable thing.

More importantly...

[Neither Mom nor Dad ate my sister's food, so why would they...?]

"Come on, let Daddy take a bite!"

Bai Tian looked at his eldest son, who had spoken, with joy and excitement.

The next second, Bai Yunqi saw that a quarter of the sweet potato in his hand was gone.

Bai Tian never imagined that just one bite of roasted sweet potato would be enough to make him feel so happy.

He patted his eldest son on the shoulder: "Good son, I knew I hadn't spoiled you for nothing."

[My youngest daughter has suffered since childhood, my youngest just vomited blood, and my second is still in a coma. Since my eldest wants to share the sweet potato, I won't mind taking a bite.]

[After all, when my eldest son first woke up, he still had the strength to squeeze the old Chinese medicine doctor's wrist! He also eats the best food every day, so a bite from him would be good!]

"It's not good to refuse a child's request for food repeatedly; it hurts their feelings!"

Bai Tian and his wife looked at each other, laughing as they tried to get away with it.

Bai Yunqi, who insisted on pretending and ended up actually getting a bite taken out of the sweet potato, commented: "Actually, refusing didn't hurt the child that much."

"Mother, Father eats my elder brother's food, you eat mine."

Juanjuan picked up the sweet potato again, looking at Jiang Dai with longing eyes, her little face like a concubine waiting for the emperor's favor.

Jiang Dai was indeed a little tempted.

So, I gritted my teeth and took a small bite of the curly sweet potato.

The sweet and sticky taste of sweet potato spread in her mouth, and Jiang Dai felt that she had never tasted a sweet potato so delicious.

Sure enough, my mom said we were fortunate to live in a time when the country is prosperous and strong.

I really want to go home, I really miss home.

Jiang Dai squatted down, hugged Xiao Juanjuan, and then quietly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Juanjuan quietly let her mother hold her.

She didn't really understand what her mother was saying most of the time.

But she could tell that her mother wasn't happy.

Mother misses home.

Juanjuan quietly reached out and tugged at her mother's clothes.

She was a little afraid that one day her mother would leave quietly, just as she had come.

But if I really go home, my mother should be happy.

That……

Let Juanjuan just consider it the best dream she's ever had!
