Chapter 13: A Deep Education
Wang Dafeng was suspicious by nature. When the water was not poured for her, she felt that the three members of the Ding family were hiding it from her. After the water was poured for her, she doubted whether the water was drinkable.
The old woman rolled her eyes and said, "Okay, you have a conscience, little girl. But to prove that the water is drinkable, take a sip and show me."
this……
Of course, all three members of the Ding family wanted to drink water.
But they are modern people who just traveled through time from the 21st century. Looking at the old woman's yellow teeth that had probably never been rinsed in her life, and thinking about the gourd bottle that she usually used, who could bring themselves to eat it?
Zhang Xiu quickly said, "Mom, water is the most precious thing right now. We have to conserve it when we're not thirsty. Think about it, how could there be a problem with the water? If there was a problem, why would Xiaodie fill her own gourd with water, right?"
Ding Xiaodie frowned. "Grandma, even though I'm just a child, I know there's no need to poison you with water. It's such precious water, wouldn't it be good for me and my parents to drink it?"
"Yes, mother, how about this, if you are doubtful and dare not drink it, you should give it back to Xiaodie. Look at this kid, she is reluctant to drink even a single sip and wants to save it. If you give it to her, she will have to call you grandma a few more times!"
Ding Gui also hurriedly joined in the fire.
"You wish."
Wang Dafeng immediately tied the gourd bottle to her waist. No one could take a drop of water from her unless they wanted to kill her.
Looking at the old woman's condition, Ding Gui thought that if he didn't treat her, she would probably become more and more outrageous in the future.
Then, he sighed deeply: "Xiu'er, Bao'er, do you know what my eldest and second brothers said when I met them earlier and talked to them about Mom?"
Zhang Xiu immediately knew it was a trap, so he cooperated and asked, "What did the eldest and second brothers say? Did they send some food to our mother? Their families are much better off than ours, so they must have brought a lot of food when they came out. The children's backpacks are all bulging with food."
"You guessed wrong." Ding Gui shook his head, a sad expression on his face: "I just told my eldest and second brothers that Mom is old and has been eating from one meal to the next on the way with us. I'm afraid her body won't be able to bear it if she continues to suffer like this. I asked them to take Mom away and let them take care of her. I don't ask for anything else, just enough to eat.
But after hearing what I said, my eldest and second brothers immediately turned hostile, saying that there was no food at home, so why should we share a bite with the old woman? They also said that whether mother was dead or alive was our business, and we should not look for them again. Even if we did, they would not care. Anyway, they had no food, that's it.
Hearing these words, Wang Dafeng was stunned. She knew her two bastard sons too well.
That’s definitely what comes out of their mouths.
Ding Gui acted even more bitterly as he said, "Mom, you have three sons, but none of them care about you, not even if you die. Looks like from now on, you'll have only the three of us to rely on! The road to escape the famine will only get harder and harder. We four have to love and care for each other, otherwise... if you only care about yourself, how will the three of us have the energy to beg for food for you? If we really don't even have a sip of water to drink, the three of us will probably have to endure it more than you. Then the first one to die will be you, my mother!!"
Seeing Wang Dafeng, he was completely stunned!
Ding Xiaodie secretly gave her father a thumbs up and said, "Uncle, you can do it. It's a pity that you didn't learn acting."
Zhang Xiu also cooperated very well and wiped away her tears.
After pondering for a moment, Wang Dafeng finally figured out that if he didn't treat the third family well, he would probably have no way to survive.
Suddenly, the sense of uncertainty and crisis in my heart became clear.
The old woman rolled her eyes and made a decisive move to change her image and start from the small things. She immediately pulled Ding Xiaodie into her arms and said, "Wow, Xiaodie, Xiaodie, my dear granddaughter, grandma was wrong. Now I know that only you three love me the most. I will love you too in the future. Come, come, grandma will give you some cakes, ah!"
After he finished speaking, he wiped his nose and reached into his arms to take the cake.
She had been holding this thing in her arms for several days. Although she had deliberately dried it before leaving home so that it could be kept longer, it was really hard to swallow the thought of letting a few people from the 21st century eat it.
Ding Xiaodie almost suffocated at this moment, and was hugged by the old woman into her arms with a strong smell, and she was almost suffocated.
In a blink of an eye, the old woman stuffed the cake she had torn off into her mouth again...
Ah! This is so terrible!
Ding Gui and Zhang Xiu were also dumbfounded.
"Grandma, no, no, no..."
Ding Xiaodie's thin body immediately broke free from Wang Dafeng's arms like a loach, and her small hands pushed her dry big hands away: "Grandma, you eat, Xiaodie is not hungry. Daddy and Mommy said that no one is allowed to touch your cakes. You have to eat them. You are old and can't stand hunger. You must have something to chew in your stomach so that you can live a long and long life!"
"You little girl!!" Wang Dafeng's mouth trembled several times.
This time it wasn't true, she was truly moved!
But she was so moved that she wanted to share the cake with her son's family. The three members of the Ding family were so scared that they pushed them into her arms and said that they must not eat the old man's food. Their words were so convincing and touching.
This made Wang Dafeng cry loudly and wipe her nose several times.
Finally, Wang Dafeng was stabilized.
Zhang Xiu sent her back to her room to rest.
But the three members of the Ding family looked at Wang Dafeng's snot on the ground and...
Now they realized whether time travel was fun or not. It wasn't fun, they were starving. The second thing they couldn't accept was probably the lifestyle. We weren't particular about anything, we just ate whatever we had and drank whatever we had, but the scene before us was still quite disgusting.
After the three of them stared at each other for a while, Ding Xiaodie was the first to step forward and said, "I'm going out to find some friends to play with. You two can handle it!"
Zhang Xiu also stood up immediately: "I'll go see if I can find something to eat in the kitchen."
“…”
This mother and daughter? !
Ding Gui moved his lips but couldn't utter a word. After all, he was the head of the family and had to take responsibility for everything.
In the end, I picked up some stove ash and sprinkled it on the surface, then swept it away with a broom.
…
"Xiaodie, come here!"
"Hurry up, you hear me?"
Ding Xiaodie had just come downstairs and was standing at the door when two half-grown children next door called her.
Although everyone was very hungry, children were still children after all, and they didn't want to stay at home even if they had a little energy.
Looking at them, Ding Xiaodie quickly recalled these two people using the original owner's memories.
The older girl is called Ding Xue, fourteen years old, and the younger boy is called Ding Hao, ten years old. They are the second daughter and third son of their uncle Ding Rong. When they were in Aozi Village, they bullied Ding Xiaodie a lot.
