Chapter 16 You are like a pig giving birth
"Otherwise, you don't really think that a man's knees are made of gold, do you?"
Lu Wanyin frowned unhappily: "With your broken knees, I'm showing respect to you by giving you a sesame bun."
What does Xie Ziqian think of her?
Could it be that his kneeling could be exchanged for a full banquet?
As she said this, she put the pancake inside and said, "If you want it, please don't go away."
Xie Ziqian quickly grabbed the pancake: "Yes, yes, yes."
Something is better than nothing, so he took the pancake and returned to his wife and children.
Although Xie Deyao couldn't see, he knew that Xie Ziqian wanted the sesame cake.
He ordered: "You should honor your parents first!"
Xie Ziqian stuffed the pancake into his arms and said with a look of rejection: "Dad, if Ya'er and Su'er continue to starve, they will probably die in this prison."
Zhou was already starving and stared greedily at the pancake in Xie Ziqian's hand.
She said harshly, "Just give it to Su'er. It won't matter if Ya'er, that little girl, goes hungry for a meal."
Xie Ziqian ignored her and handed the pancake to his wife with a numb expression: "Feed it to the child first."
Xie Ziqian's wife Xu Yinghe was a distant cousin of the Marquis Xuan of Qi.
But the eldest daughter of Marquis Xuan of Qi is the current queen.
Xu Yinghe also benefited a lot from this and was pampered with fine clothes and delicious food.
Being in prison now is worse than death.
Without thinking about these things, Xu Yinghe took half of the pancake, divided it into three, and gave one to each of the two children.
The remaining piece was given to Xie Ziqian.
Xie Ziqian shook his head and said, "I'm not hungry, you eat!"
When Xie Yunge saw the pancake in his hand, she ran over crying and asked for it: "Brother Ziqian, please give Yunge one piece. I'm almost starving to death."
Xie Yunge cried so miserably.
Xie Ziqian ignored her and gave the pancake to Xu Yinghe: "Eat it. You still have to look after the children. You have to eat it."
Xu Yinghe had no choice but to take it, but still couldn't bear to eat it.
I plan to hide it and share it with my children at the next meal.
Seeing that he would rather give it to his wife than to himself, Xie Deyao was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
He took two steps in the dark and walked up to Xie Ziqian, then slapped him in the face.
Bang!
Even though Xie Deyao used all his strength, the slap still felt like a tickle.
Firstly, I couldn’t see, and secondly, I was too hungry to have any strength.
"Which is more important, your wife or your parents? Can't you tell the difference? I raised you up, and now you won't even share a bite of your pancake with me!"
Xie Ziqian pushed Xie Deyao away.
His children are almost starving to death, how can he care about filial piety?
"Dad, Mom, it's not that I'm unfilial to you, but my children..."
Before he could finish, Xie Deyao threw another punch.
Xie Ziqian was beaten so hard that his mind was dazed.
He stared at Xie Deyao in a daze, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Dad...you beat me for this"
Xie Deyao was furious: "I'm going to teach you a lesson today!"
The old lady watched the farce from afar and sighed several times.
For a meal, the father and son turned against each other and fought like this. It was really...
They say blood is thicker than water. No matter how ungrateful they are, the old lady still feels sorry for them.
The old lady patted Lu Wanyin's shoulder and pleaded, "Granddaughter-in-law, if you have any extra, why not share some with them?"
Her eyes turned red, fearing that Lu Wanyin would disagree.
The old lady was very humble: "After all, these are my children. Please help them for my sake."
Although Lu Wanyin was extremely resistant in her heart, it was the old lady who spoke after all.
She has to give some money, no matter what.
She patted the old lady's hand and said soothingly, "Grandma, you're too kind. I still have some left. Let them share."
After saying that, Lu Wanyin took out a few white flour buns from her sleeves.
"Stop fighting!"
Lu Wanyin threw a steamed bun at them, as if dismissing a beggar: "Dinner is ready!"
A steamed bun was thrown out, and everyone rushed over like crazy to grab the bun.
The respectable aristocratic families are now fighting over a piece of steamed bun.
Lu Wanyin had to admit that she really liked seeing the Xie family like this.
It feels great.
The old lady was embarrassed and angry, so she could only turn around and beg Lu Wanyin again: "Child, give them two more. This piece of steamed bun is really not enough for them to share."
Lu Wanyin readily followed suit and took out two more steamed buns: "Okay, grandma."
She stood up with the steamed bun and shouted to the crazy crowd, "Stop snatching it away."
Everyone stopped instantly and looked at the steamed bun in her hand with greedy eyes.
Everyone is thinking about how to grab more.
Lu Wanyin split a steamed bun in half and said, "Thanks to grandma, each of you can get half a steamed bun. You can exchange it with your belongings."
She could give it to them for the old lady's sake.
But it can’t be given for free.
Just now, these people showed off their wealth in order to please the jailer.
Half a steamed bun for so many things, it's a good deal!
Lu Wanyin smiled faintly, taking in all these greedy gazes.
"Each family gets half a dollar. Don't take more than that, or I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of grandma."
Everyone immediately shrugged their shoulders and became deflated, completely losing their previous arrogance.
After all, everyone has seen Lu Wanyin's abilities.
Even Xie Deyao, who is the best in Kung Fu, is no match for her, let alone the people below.
After these words were spoken, no one dared to challenge the authority.
Everyone knows that these gold and silver are the last resorts and must be saved for critical moments.
But if you are starving to death right now, it is useless to keep the money.
So he obediently exchanged his things for steamed buns.
Xuan Qi, Liu Ying and others could not hide their shock as they watched Lu Wanyin constantly taking out steamed buns from her sleeves.
Is there a bottomless pit in the lady's sleeve?
How can you be so pretentious?
Liuying even felt that she wouldn't be surprised if the lady took out a roasted suckling pig from her sleeve.
From his perspective, Xie Jingci was lying on the ground bored.
There was clearly nothing in Lu Wanyin's sleeves.
His eyes darkened.
Thinking of the pot of water that could heal him instantly, he couldn't help but doubt.
Did I marry a fairy?
Could it be that God saw that he was too miserable and sent a fairy to help him turn things around?
…
For half a steamed bun, naturally the fewer people there are, the easier it is to divide it.
Lin Wenbin was imprisoned separately as a witness. His wife Dong and three children received half a steamed bun, each of them took two bites, and ate them in small bites while hiding in a corner.
The most difficult family to divide is the third branch, Xie Deyi's family.
The main wife, Liu, has two sons and two daughters, Concubine Fang has a young son, and Concubine Zhao has a son and a daughter.
Including his son, wife and children, there were more than twenty people in total.
Liu felt that as the legal wife, she deserved a larger share, so she asked for a large portion.
Aunt Zhao was naturally unwilling: "Only your family has children. Other people's children are not considered children. They are all the master's flesh and blood. Why do you want more?"
On weekdays in the general's mansion, Liu relied on her status to bully Concubine Fang and Concubine Zhao everywhere.
There was enough money in the mansion and they had enough food and clothing, so Aunt Fang and Aunt Zhao simply endured it.
But the situation is different now. If we eat one less bite, we may not be able to survive.
Aunt Fang and Aunt Zhao sang the same tune.
"That's right, you gave birth to so many piglets like piglets, you should figure out how to raise them yourself, why are you competing with us for food?"
