When Xu Jinhuan looked up, he saw a woman who should be from a branch of the Xu family. After entering the prison, she found Xu's mother and Xu Youyou who were preparing to eat.
She rushed over angrily, kicked over the food box, and slapped him in the face.
When the other members of the Xu family saw this scene, they swarmed over. They seemed to be trying to stop the fight, but in fact they took the opportunity to kick Xu's mother a few times to vent their hatred.
Xu Youyou pretended to try to dissuade them, but accidentally entered the battlefield. The woman pulled her hair and started slapping her. It was a tragic scene.
"What are you doing? You're in jail and you can't even be quiet. Stop it."
A yamen runner was attracted by the sound and after seeing the scene, he immediately scolded everyone.
After hearing the voice of the yamen runner, the group of women finally calmed down, but they still stared at Xu's mother and Xu Youyou viciously, as if they wished they could bite off a piece of flesh from them.
"Alright, stop staring. You're leaving tomorrow, so why don't you eat and get some rest?"
Another yamen runner was no longer surprised by such things, and he came over with some porridge.
As he walked, he persuaded everyone to place the porridge bowls outside the cell bars according to the number of people, and then he turned around and left.
"Our meal is just a bowl of porridge?" a woman who looked like she was used to a life of luxury asked dissatisfiedly.
The yamen runner rolled his eyes at her and said, "If you're not satisfied, you don't have to eat. The worst that can happen is that you'll go hungry tomorrow and see how long you can survive."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Seeing this, everyone in the cell didn't care whether the porridge was too thin or not, and hurriedly picked up their own portion. Xu Jinhuan also picked up a bowl.
She saw that the bowl was relatively clean. Although there was little rice in the porridge, there was no sand or gravel. So she prepared to take a couple of sips. She had choked a little while eating the buns and needed some water.
However, before Xu Jinhuan's lips touched the edge of the bowl, he heard Xu Youyou's tea-talking.
"Second sister, my mother and I are both injured. Can you bring us two bowls of porridge?"
Xu Jinhuan knew that Xu Youyou suddenly spoke up not only to ask her to get the porridge, but also to tell other people in the cell about his relationship with the Xu family and make those people hostile to him as well.
What Xu Jinhuan hated most in the end times were those pretentious people. These people might seem to be friendly with you, but you never know when they will stab you in the back, leaving you defenseless.
Xu Jinhuan had suffered a loss like this at the beginning of the apocalypse a few years ago. If it weren't for her loyal little brother, she might have died that time...
Thinking of his poor little brother who was killed by the Zombie King, Xu Jinhuan's mood became even worse.
Therefore, she lost all patience with Xu Youyou and simply gave Xu Youyou a cold look.
"Your face was injured, not your hands and feet. Could it be that your injury will spread and move to another place, making you unable to move?"
Xu Youyou seemed to have not expected Xu Jinhuan to say this. She subconsciously covered her slowly swollen cheek, and then looked at Xu's mother with grievance.
"Xu Jinhuan, Youyou is your sister, how can you say that about her? Do you have any manners at all?"
Xu Jinhuan looked up at Xu's mother and said coldly, "Of course, a homeless child like me doesn't have a tutor. Your Xu family has a tutor, so why don't you go get the porridge bowl yourself?"
Mother Xu choked immediately, and angrily dragged her aching body to get two bowls of porridge. She gave one bowl to Xu Youyou and drank the other bowl herself.
Xu Jinhuan took his bowl of porridge and prepared to go back to where he had been to rest, but he saw that someone was already lying there. Unlike the others, he was sitting on the straw with his back against the wall.
She was lying on the straw, with a weak woman beside her, massaging her shoulders.
"Get up, this is where I just sat." Xu Jinhuan said with a cold face.
Unexpectedly, the man opened his eyes, looked at Xu Jinhuan, and then closed his eyes again. "This is where I lie down now, so this place is all mine. You can stay wherever you feel cool."
The people around were also talking about the woman's arrogance. Just now, when they wanted to sit nearby, they were driven away by the woman.
"This Liu family runs a martial arts school, so she knows some martial arts. Look how crazy she is, she even needs someone to help her massage her shoulders and back."
"Hey, stop talking too much. Who knows what we might encounter during our exile? Let's coax her down first. She'll be able to help us out later."
"It's really frustrating. I haven't been treated like this in many years."
"It's because of some people that we have suffered. Just bear with it."
Xu Jinhuan listened to the women's whispers and finally understood why this man was so arrogant.
"Today I will teach you a lesson: there is always someone stronger than you."
As soon as Xu Jinhuan finished speaking, everyone in the cell was a little confused. What was she talking about? Could it be that she, a girl in the boudoir, wanted to compete with Liu?
Then everyone opened their eyes wide, because Xu Jinhuan lifted Liu from the straw mat with both hands and threw her hard onto the iron bars of the cell.
"Bang!"
Liu was so badly hit by the fall that she saw stars. If it weren't for her fat body, she would have probably broken a bone.
"You, you little girl, you dare to throw me down, I will fight you!"
After Liu roared, she rushed towards Xu Jinhuan. Xu Jinhuan dodged easily, but Liu didn't have time to stop and hit the wall hard, fainting.
"Tsk, you really have strong limbs but a simple mind."
Xu Jinhuan mentioned Liu with disgust and threw her away. After brushing the dust off his hands, he sat back on the straw mat.
And everyone in the cell was very quiet because of what had just happened, and dared not say anything.
There was surprise in Xu's mother's eyes. She didn't know that this daughter she found back could actually fight and looked very powerful.
There was also a hint of surprise on Xu Youyou's face, but there was not much worry.
Because she had just read the note in the chaos, and the Fifth Prince said that he would rescue her on the way to exile, and then help her change her identity and start over.
Thinking of this, a hint of sweetness appeared on Xu Youyou's face. She actually found true love in the feudal dynasty just like the heroine in the novel.
Unfortunately, she was just a college student majoring in liberal arts and didn't understand the chemical knowledge of glass and gunpowder, otherwise she could have helped the Fifth Prince to get that position.
[Host, I just detected that Xu Youyou is a time traveler. You need to be more careful.]
Xu Jinhuan heard the system's voice and replied in his heart: "Don't worry, I already knew it."
This time it was the system king's turn to be surprised, [Host, how did you find out? It's faster than my detection speed? ]
