After Zhang Xiu Lan finished her meal, Li Jinfeng took out an egg cake wrapped in oil paper from her pocket and handed it to Zhang Xiu Lan.
"Eat!" she said.
Zhang Xiulan stared at the egg cake, her eyes widening. "Where...where did this come from?"
"I bought it! I bought it from the county supply and marketing cooperative." said Li Jinfeng.
"Feng'er, where did you get the money to buy these things?" Zhang Xiu Lan asked.
"Mom, didn't I just tell you that no matter what I give you, you must not refuse, don't ask, and don't tell anyone else. Eat it quickly, and when you're full, lie down and rest!" said Li Jinfeng.
Zhang Xiu Lan took the egg cake with trembling hands, opened the outer packaging, and broke the cake into two halves, one half with more and the other half with less. She gave the smaller half to herself and the larger half to Li Jinfeng.
"Feng'er, Mom is full now. I can only eat this little bit. The rest... you can share it with your brothers and sisters, okay?"
"No!" Li Jinfeng refused directly.
"This thing is for you to eat, not for them! They are not pregnant and have no right to eat it!" said Li Jinfeng.
"But……"
"Mom, if you continue like this, I will throw you into the pit!" Li Jinfeng threatened. Only then did Zhang Xiulan tear the egg cake into pieces and eat it.
She couldn't remember the last time she had egg cake.
Maybe it's been more than ten years.
Or maybe... longer.
Zhang Xiulan felt her throat tighten and her eyes sore.
Li Jinfeng was watching from the side, and she always felt a little disappointed with Zhang Xiu Lan.
For the sake of his stepchildren, he even disregarded his own life.
Li Ailan caused her to faint, but she has never complained until now.
If she hadn't forced herself not to meet those two weirdos, she would have pretended nothing happened and treated the two ungrateful people well.
"Mom, there is something I want to ask you!" said Li Jinfeng.
It just so happens that there is no one around right now, so the mother and daughter can chat in private for a while without worrying about being discovered.
"What's the matter?" Zhang Xiulan asked.
"Is my uncle in Nongshan County?" Li Jinfeng asked tentatively.
Zhang Xiulan's expression changed instantly.
She looked at Li Jinfeng in horror, "Feng'er, who told you that your uncle was in Nongshan County? What else did he say?"
"Mom, don't get excited. It was my grandpa who told me to go find my uncle last time, but I have no impression of him at all. I wanted to ask you if you still remember him!" Li Jinfeng patted Zhang Xiu Lan on the back to calm her down.
When Zhang Xiulan heard that it was Li Fuman who said that, the fear on her face disappeared.
But he was still hesitant, not knowing whether to tell Li Jinfeng.
"Mom, my uncle's family is probably my only blood relatives in this world besides you, right? Is there anything you can't tell me?"
In the Li family, Li Jinfeng has always been a non-blood-related stepdaughter and step-granddaughter. Although she has the same surname as the people in the Li family, she is very different from them inwardly.
"Feng'er, don't... don't go to find your uncle, don't go..." Zhang Xiu Lan said.
"Mom, does my uncle have a bad relationship with our family? Has he treated us harshly in the past?" Li Jinfeng asked.
“No…no!”
When she was a child, she had the best relationship with her second brother, how could it be bad?
"Then why..."
"Feng'er, you are not allowed to go to Nongshan County! And you are not allowed to tell anyone that you are from there!" Zhang Xiu Lan said with a serious expression.
"So, you mean to sever this relationship?"
