Chapter 3 Drinking Vegetable Porridge



Qin Xiaoguo looked at the little black monkey in front of her in disbelief. She really couldn't believe that everything in her dream was real. Those memories were experienced by her current body, and this body had just passed away. She left the end of the world, and her soul came into this body, and she got married and had a child.

"mother?"

Hearing a cautious voice beside him, the boy looked at his mother's strange expression and felt more and more uneasy. Could it be that she had fallen and hit her head?

"Mom, are you okay? What would I do if something happened to you?" The little guy spoke in a baby voice. "Mom, I won't eat so much in the future. I can also go out to find food."

The young child thought that he ate too much, which was why his mother fell down because she was not full, and it was all his fault.

Xiao Guo came to her senses and looked at the boy who suddenly burst into tears. "Hey, don't cry..." She really didn't know how to get along with children. Looking at the crying child with snot running down his nose, she wondered what his name was. Jiang? Jiang? "Jiang... Qingwen."

Xiaoguo called out his name carefully. The boy, who had been crying uncontrollably, stopped crying instantly when he heard his mother calling his full name. His mother would only call him by his full name when he was in trouble.

"mother?"

Hearing such a soft voice calling her mother, Xiao Guo's heart softened, "Zhuangzhuang, mother is fine, don't worry about me."

Xiaoguo just remembered that when he was born, his mother-in-law gave him the nickname Zhuangzhuang so that he would grow up strong.

But now... he is so skinny, dry and dirty. Oh, I never thought that a virgin like me would have such a big adopted son.

Gulu Gulu…

Xiaoguo listened to the protest from her stomach. She was hungry. This body hadn't eaten for three days. Xiaoguo covered her stomach and prepared to get out of bed to find something to eat. But before she could take a step, her head buzzed and she was about to fall to the ground. Xiaoguo hurriedly grabbed the edge of the bed to avoid falling. But Zhuangke, who was keeping an eye on Xiaoguo, was shocked and rushed to grab Xiaoguo, holding Xiaoguo's clothes tightly with both hands.

It was obvious that he was frightened by the fall and was afraid that his mother would have another accident.

"Don't be afraid, Zhuangzhuang. Mom just didn't stand steadily. It's okay." Xiaoguo gently stroked Zhuangzhuang's back.

"I'll support my mother." The child said to Xiaoguo firmly and seriously.

"good."

Xiaoguo followed Zhuangzhuang to his own kitchen. Looking at the empty food bag, he carefully thought about what he had eaten before. Before the famine, he had flour and rice, but later he had to rely on digging wild vegetables to fill his stomach. The rice and flour at home were all gone.

After rummaging around, Xiao Guo finally found a grain bag with a handful of rice. It was very little, but every grain of rice was so precious nowadays. Xiao Guo happily grabbed the rice grains and sprinkled them into the pot, then added water and lit the fire.

On the other side, Zhuangzhuang, who was following Xiaoguo closely, looked at his mother's actions with some hesitation, "Mom, didn't you say that we shouldn't take out this little bit of food unless it's absolutely necessary?"

The original owner had said before that this little bit of food was prepared for Zhuangzhuang in case of any accidents. But now Xiaoguo felt that if they didn't eat something, the mother and son would definitely starve to death. It was impossible for Zhuangzhuang to be hungry when she came here, so the present was more important.

"Well, yes, now is the time when we have no other choice. Shall we have some porridge?"

Zhuangzhuang was also tempted by the word "porridge". He hadn't had porridge for a long time. He still remembered that it smelled so good. Thinking of it, he couldn't help but smacked his lips, nodded slowly and said yes.

Xiaoguo rubbed his head, which was sticky. It seemed that she would need to boil some water to give him a bath later.

The water boiled while they were talking, and the aroma of rice wafted out through the gap in the pot lid. The two of them couldn't help but sigh at the same time when they smelled the fragrance, "Ah~"

The two of them were too embarrassed to look at each other after hearing the sound and laughed out loud.

Xiaoguo stood up and looked around to see if there was any oil or vegetables to make some vegetable porridge. In the end, he only found a wild vegetable and a fingernail-sized piece of pork fat left in the oil can.

Wash the wild vegetables, chop them into small pieces with a knife, and then throw them into the pot together with the pork fat. Stir them with a spoon, and the aroma instantly spreads over the pot, causing the stomachs of the two, one big and one small, to growl.
