Chapter 3: Hunger doesn’t feel good!



It was not until 3:30 in the afternoon that the second son Qin Jianguo came back.

Although the snow outside has stopped, the cold wind is still there.

In addition, Zaojiazhuang is relatively remote and is surrounded by high mountains, just like a lotus bud, wrapped in the middle.

The only mountain road leading to the town was also covered with heavy snow.

Fortunately, the weather was cold and the snow melted slowly, so the road did not turn into ice, otherwise it would have taken at least a whole day to go back and forth.

But the weather was so cold that it was unbearable. The wind was like a knife, and it made his face and ears red with cold.

The hat he was wearing was also covered with a thick layer of ice, and the white air he exhaled instantly condensed into ice in the air.

I saw him carrying two baskets of things on a shoulder pole, one basket was filled with potatoes and white radishes, both of which are easy to store vegetables.

There is also a basket of aged rice, which is sold at a low price.

The group of children were very excited when they saw so much food.

But he didn't notice that the adult's face was still full of worry.

This amount of food is not enough to survive the winter!

Qin Jianguo put the things in the living room, then took out two cans of malted milk from his arms and handed them to Xie Yuwei.

He didn't dare put such a precious thing in the basket for fear that it would be stolen.

"His second uncle, thank you for your hard work." Xie Yuwei took the things with gratitude and quickly took them to the room to brew them.

At one o'clock, Han'er started crying loudly because of hunger. She had just fallen asleep not long ago, so she had to get some water quickly.

"Mom, this is the money left from selling the bracelet. It cost a total of 45 dollars!

Malted milk was eight yuan a can, so I bought two cans. The things in the basket cost me four yuan and sixty-five cents in total, and the rest of the money and food coupons are all here." Chen Jianguo took out the money and coupons from his pants and gave them all to his mother.

Old Mrs. Qin took the money and felt a pang of sadness in her heart. It was the only antique in the house, and she only got this little money from selling it.

The third daughter-in-law has no breast milk, which means that all the money should be used to buy malted milk for Han'er. The child is growing day by day, and by then a can of malted milk can last for several days.

So worried!

After wrapping the money in cloth, Old Lady Qin put it into her trouser pocket. It is better to keep the money on your body, otherwise it is difficult to protect yourself from thieves.

"Put all these things in my room. I will lock the door during the day and see how the third brother can steal them again." Old Lady Qin said sternly.

"Why hasn't the eldest brother brought the third brother back yet?" Qin Jianguo asked.

Old Man Qin shook the ash from his pipe and snorted coldly, "I'm afraid this Third Brother is hiding. If he comes, tie him up and don't let him harm the family anymore."

Speaking of the third brother, everyone's faces became more worried. He is really not a worry-free person.

In the room, Qin Han vaguely smelled a light milky aroma, and his stomach suddenly growled with hunger.

"Waaaa waa..." Then, he started crying uncontrollably.

This body was too weak. He had only been cultivating in the Qiankun Realm for two hours when his mental strength was no longer enough to support him to continue staying in the space.

The rice soup he drank in the morning was digested quickly. He was so hungry at noon that he cried for nearly half an hour before he fell asleep exhausted.

Now that I smell the aroma of milk, my hunger becomes even stronger.

A group of children looked at the malted milk on the table, drooling with greed. They had never drunk this in their lives!

But they all knew that this drink was for Brother Han'er, so no matter how greedy they were, they didn't ask for it.

However, there were bits of milk powder foam scattered on the table, and everyone looked at each other, wanting to reach out and lick them into their mouths.

In the end, it was Lao Ba who reached out, put some on his fingers, and put it in his mouth, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

Although Xie Yuwei felt bad when she saw this scene, she still hardened her heart and covered it with a lid.

To prevent air from entering, it was then placed in a cabinet and locked.

There is no way, Han'er is still so young, he can only drink malted milk, everything depends on him.

Then she picked up the bottle, walked to the edge of the bed, picked up Han'er and started feeding him.

She tests the water temperature with the back of her hand before making milk, so she can drink it directly after making it.

Qin Han, who was starving, sucked hard, making a "humming" sound from time to time.

It instantly melted the hearts of everyone in the room.

This malted milk tastes much better than the bland soup in the morning. He finished a hundred milliliters of milk powder in just a few minutes and felt instantly alive.

After his rebirth, he has been switching back and forth between hunger and hunger. I'm afraid there is no Demon Emperor in the world more miserable than him, right?

After drinking the milk, his consciousness entered the space to practice again.

He knew that this family was poor, and they were still buying him expensive milk powder. But now he could barely take care of himself, so how could he care about the life and death of others?

Let's wait until he recovers...

In the evening, the boss Qin Jiandang came back with a bruise on his face and a sore at the corner of his mouth.

"Dad, I failed to catch Jianjun and let him run away." Qin Jiandang looked ashamed.

"This beast even attacked my eldest brother. He'd better die out there and never come back." Old man Qin's droopy eyes were filled with anger.

"Jiandang, are you okay with the wound on your face?" Zhang Xiumei asked with concern.

Qin Jiandang shook his head: "I'm fine, just superficial injuries."

This injury was caused when he captured the third brother and the third brother resisted him.

Although he is the eldest brother at home, he is not as strong as the third brother, and he cannot beat him at all. If he had known earlier, he would have gone with the second brother to capture him.

Now no one knows where he has run off to, and it’s difficult to catch him.

Three days passed in a flash. Qin Han could drink 120 ml of milk and his complexion became noticeably rosier.
