Feng Qiujuan saw her expression changing again and again, and suddenly she thought that this little girl was stupid. How could going to the countryside be good? If there was no other way, who would be willing to go to the countryside to suffer?
"So do you think it's a good idea to go to the countryside?" Zhu Guixia looked at the little girl, wondering whether she was really stupid or just pretending to be stupid.
Bai Ruozhen pursed his lips as he glanced at her, then smiled wryly and said, "Now I think I know it's not good to go to the countryside."
No one waited on her. Although there were the annoying Bai Ruoxin and Bai Ruoyun in that house, at least someone washed her clothes and she didn't have to cook. She just had to go to school. Although it was a bit selfish to do so, she really couldn't do it. Even if she had the original owner's memories, she still wouldn't do it. She was the queen, how could she do such rough work? It was too sad.
The only thing she can cook is cooking, but the dishes she can cook are not available here.
Alas, so poor.
Zhu Guixia's mouth twitched and she looked at Feng Qiujuan, and concluded: This child is not stupid, but he is not very smart either.
So the two of them treated Bai Ruozhen nicely with the tacit understanding of taking care of a silly child.
How pitiful! She went to the countryside at such a young age and didn't even know what life was like in the countryside. If they didn't help each other, they would be bullied to death.
Bai Ruozhen had no idea that she had been listed as a key protected person. As she listened to the little girl crying across from her and another trying to comfort her, she became more and more panicked. What would she do with her clothes and food after arriving in the countryside? Even if she could cook, she was the queen and how could she do that kind of work?
Of course, if Bai Ruozhen knew that as an educated youth he had to work in the fields, he would probably faint from tears.
At noon, those who brought their own lunch started to eat with their lunch boxes. The train provided free hot meals to take care of these educated youth who had gone to the countryside. Bai Ruozhen didn't know what Li Qiulan and her husband had prepared for her. She just opened a bundle as Li Qiulan instructed, and then took out an egg and a pancake.
Eggs and pancakes are both good things, especially the pancakes, which seemed to have been made in the morning and were still warm. Bai Ruoxin was very happy. This way, she didn't have to heat up the rice. She picked up the pancakes and eggs and started eating them in small bites.
Feng Qiujuan and Zhu Guixia went to heat up the food, so Bai Ruozhen sat in her seat and ate. Zhao Laidie, the little girl crying opposite her, looked at her with envy, saying that she really wanted to eat some eggs and some pancakes, they smelled so good.
Bai Ruozhen temporarily forgot about her worries and was eating happily when she felt someone was looking at her. When she looked up, she saw the crying little girl opposite her staring at... uh, at the eggs and pancakes in her hands.
Bai Ruozhen retracted her hand and lowered her head to start eating. Zhao Laidie opposite her was furious. How could this guy be so rude? Seeing her crying so pitifully, shouldn't he take pity on her and give her something to eat?
Unfortunately, Bai Ruozhen was a person who pretended to be pitiful. She saw through Zhao Lai Di's purpose at a glance. During these days in that family, she realized the importance of food, especially eggs and white flour, which were the most precious things. If she had not gone to the countryside so far away from home, her family would not have prepared them for her so that she could take them with her.
She actually couldn't finish such a pancake, but she could eat it next time. She couldn't bear to give it to others, especially to someone she didn't know and who had ulterior motives.
Bai Ruozhen glanced at her and refused to give her any food.
Zhao Lai Di was stunned. How could there be people in this world who didn't sympathize with the weak? Had she forgotten how she had just shown weakness to those two girls? Had she not seen how sadly she had cried?
How unsympathetic.
Zhao Lai Di looked at Feng Qiujuan and Zhu Guixia returning not far away, and wiped her tears again.
Feng Qiujuan was soft-hearted and asked, "Why don't you eat?"
Zhao Lai Di glanced at the hot food in her hand without saying a word and continued crying.
"Didn't your family prepare any food for you?" Feng Qiujuan felt the truth, but looking at the food in her hand, she felt reluctant to give it away. Her family was not well off, and her family had tightened their belts to pack for her. She was actually reluctant to give the food to others, but the other party seemed to really have no food to eat...
But Feng Qiujuan's question made her cry even harder. Zhu Guixia pulled Feng Qiujuan and said, "Qiujuan, don't meddle in other people's business. Everyone has little to eat. Don't forget how your parents saved up so much food for you."
Feng Qiujuan looked at her food again and felt even more reluctant to eat it.
Zhao Lai Di, who was standing opposite her, watched her plan succeed only to be ruined by Zhu Guixia. She burst into tears and said, "How can you be so unsympathetic?"
"Why don't I have any sympathy? Sympathy should be shown within one's ability. Your parents don't prepare anything for you and they don't care about us. Why should we give you the food that our parents save and spend frugally?" Zhu Guixia looked at Zhao Lai Di and snorted.
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Lai Di cried even harder, immediately attracting the attention of others.
Seeing this, the little girl sitting with Zhao Lai Di glanced at her own food and said reluctantly, "Laidi, why don't you share one with me?"
Zhao Lai Di cried, "How can this be enough for the two of us to eat?"
Bai Ruozhen wanted to laugh. Oh, it's enough to have something to eat. Why is she complaining about it being too little? The others also felt uncomfortable when they heard this. She had something to eat, but she still complained about it being too little. Was she blaming them for not sharing the food with her? But food was so expensive, and no one was well off. Why should they share it with her?
Everyone else, including the male educated youth, fell silent. Zhao Lai Di sobbed even harder. She sensed the others' dissatisfaction and directed her ire at Bai Ruozhen. "My dear classmate, I see you have a lot of food. Could you please share some with me? We're both going to Yancheng, and I'll definitely pay you back later."
