When talking about this, Hei Nuo was very excited.
This situation had happened in the previous life. The original owner did not believe such rumors at the time. After all, the female slaves assigned to work in the mine were all abandoned by the higher-ups.
The original owner had an allergic reaction and developed a rash on her face, which led to her ending up in the mines. Based on her appearance, she must have stayed in the main house in the capital.
Bei Yutang replied according to the previous life's original owner's words: "That should be unlikely."
Hei Niu thought about it and felt it was unlikely. She couldn't help but feel a little discouraged. She looked at Bei Yutang's beautiful profile and sighed, "Alas, if it were true, you could leave here. With your beauty, you will definitely win the master's favor. Then you can eat delicacies every day, sleep in a comfortable bed, and wear silk and satin."
The more Hei Nuo thought about it, the more she longed for it.
Bei Yutang stretched out his finger and flicked her forehead. "Don't think too much. What's mine is mine. What's not mine is useless. Hurry up and work. It will be terrible if the supervisor sees you later."
When Hei Nuo looked up, she saw the supervisor coming towards them, and she was so scared that she quickly buried her head in her work.
In the mines, if the overseer caught you slacking off, he would whip you. On the distant hills, overseers could often be seen whipping male slaves.
Just now, a male slave on the hillside was whipped by an overseer, and the whip hit his hand, causing the slave to drop something in his hand. The overseer beat him even harder, kicking him down and punching and kicking him.
Seeing that the male slave was spitting blood and was about to die, the supervisor had no intention of stopping. He dragged him and tied the dying male slave to a wooden stake not far away, preparing to sun him to death.
Things like this were very common in the mine. Almost every once in a while, someone would be tied to the wooden stake. Anyone tied to the stake would either bleed to death, die of thirst, or die of starvation.
At noon, it was finally time for dinner. All the slaves hurried to the straw hut, each holding a bowl and looking forward to the food.
Hei Nuo stood behind Bei Yutang, and she saw Hei Nuo's head occasionally looking over her shoulder, her eyes glowing green as she looked at the wooden barrel containing food not far away.
A quarter of an hour later, it was Bei Yutang's turn. She handed over the bowl, and the supervisor scooped a spoonful of porridge into the bowl, then took a black naan from another supervisor.
After receiving the food, all the slaves found an open space to eat.
Hei Nuo pulled Bei Yutang and hid in a corner.
Hei Nuo couldn't wait to take a mouthful of porridge, and her expression of enjoyment was as if she was eating delicacies from land and sea.
Bei Yutang looked at the porridge in the bowl. There were hardly any grains of rice in it, only rice water.
Seeing that she was standing there without eating, Hei Niu urged her, "Yutang, hurry up and eat. Once 01 and the others finish eating, your food will be gone."
In the mines, it was common for strong slaves to steal food from weaker slaves. The supervisors were lax about it and generally didn't care as long as no one was killed.
In the previous life, the original owner had his food robbed by a group of people numbered 01 and 03. At that time, the original owner had just arrived at the mine and had nothing but bullying. After a long time, he also knew how to protect himself and how to keep his food.
Bei Yutang drank a mouthful of rice water and then ate a mouthful of black glutinous rice. Eating both together was much more comfortable than eating the black glutinous rice alone.
