"Sister-in-law, wait a minute!"
Liang Youqian stood in front of Wan Shu, his previous arrogance completely gone, replaced by a fawning and obsequious expression.
“Although we have separated our family, we are still all members of the Liang family. It is normal for us to share our food. How can this be called plundering and humiliation!”
“Sharing food is normal, but I only remember sharing with you, while you never shared anything with me.” Wan Shu pushed Liang Youqian away and continued walking towards the village entrance with a cold face.
Er Ya and Si Ya followed closely behind.
Seeing that they were approaching the village entrance with great momentum, Liang Youqian had no choice but to grit his teeth, divide the sesame cakes in his hand into two, and stuff them into Wan Shu's hands.
"Sister-in-law, I'm begging you, please don't go! I'll give you two sesame cakes now, so we can at least return the favor!"
Ten minutes later.
Liang Youqian stared at Wan Shu's departing figure, his eyes flashing with anger.
He said bitterly, "I'll let you be smug for two more days!"
Er Ya and Si Ya stared intently at the sesame seed cakes in their hands, still in a daze, their faces full of disbelief.
Good heavens, they never expected that their mother would actually bring them two sesame cakes when she said she would make them some!
You have to understand, this is a meat pie with meat inside, fried in oil! They haven't eaten such good food since their father passed away!
At first, they would get hungry and make a fuss about wanting more delicious food.
But her mother would always scold them for being greedy, saying that little girls were a waste of money and didn't deserve to eat well; all the good food was reserved for men who were studying.
So even though Wan Shu had already handed the sesame cakes to them, they hesitated to take a bite and cautiously asked questions.
"Mother, can we really eat this?"
Alas, the original owner of this body was truly a sinner. Her two well-behaved daughters were abused into such a timid and cowardly state.
Wan Shu lovingly rubbed their heads: "Yes, you can really eat it. Mother gave it to you, so it's yours."
Er Ya and Si Ya's eyes lit up, and they started drooling.
This time they really came out, their mouths watering. But even though they were so hungry, they didn't take a bite right away. Instead, they waited until they were almost home before grabbing the sesame cakes, hugging the rooster, and excitedly rushing inside.
"Big brother! Third brother! Fifth brother! Look, these are wild fruits and sesame cakes!"
"Big brother! Third brother! Fifth brother! Look, it's a big rooster!"
Dazhu, Sanshun, and Wu'an all thought they could only eat wild vegetables tonight, but they didn't expect that there would be not only wild fruits and sesame cakes, but also such a big rooster!
The three were surprised and suspicious, wondering where they had stolen the food. After questioning them carefully, they learned that Wan Shu had tricked the sesame seed cakes from her uncle and that the rooster had been caught on the mountain.
They all looked at Wan Shu with bright eyes: "Mom, you're amazing! Before, it was always Uncle who tricked us, but today we finally got our revenge!"
"Mom, you're like a living goddess! You can get anything!"
It was just two sesame seed cakes and a chicken, yet they praised it like it was divine. Wan Shu couldn't help but blush and wave his hand.
"This is nothing."
She remembered that the five of them hadn't eaten anything good in a long time and had been starving, so she urged them, "The sesame cakes will get cold soon, let's eat them first."
The five people nodded, cut the sesame seed cake into six pieces with a kitchen knife, and placed the largest piece in front of Wan Shu.
With eager eyes, she said, "Mother, you eat first!"
Wan Shu had already eaten the large sesame seed cake she bought from the mall, so she wasn't hungry at all. However, she knew that if she didn't eat, the children wouldn't be able to eat in peace either.
She hummed in agreement, picked up the sesame seed cake, and started eating.
Seeing this, the five children picked up their respective portions and ate them all up.
They licked everything clean, not even the crispy bits that fell off the sesame seed cakes, but even the oil stuck to the cleavers.
Liang Dazhu licked his lips with lingering satisfaction: "The oil tastes so good, it's just a pity there's not enough oil on this sesame seed cake."
Low oil content? That's no big deal!
Wan Shu pointed at the rooster: "This rooster is plump and strong, and it must have a lot of oil in its belly. You'll have plenty of oil to eat tonight."
"What?! Mom, you're going to eat the chicken?!"
All five of them were greatly shocked.
"Mom, this chicken is so big! We can make a lot of money selling it in town tomorrow. It's not a holiday, so we can't afford to eat such a big chicken!"
Why not? With their small bodies, if they don't get more oil and protein, they'll probably starve to death soon.
Even if you're lucky enough not to starve to death, you'll still develop some health problems, so saving that money is not worth it.
However, she knew that they were used to being poor and had never been to school, so they wouldn't understand or listen to her if she talked to them about these things. Therefore, she deliberately kept a straight face.
"You don't want to eat, right? If you don't want to eat, then I'll send it to the Su family."
Wan Shu pretended to grab the chicken, and the five people were once again shocked.
It was only with great difficulty that Mother finally made up her mind to have nothing to do with the Su family anymore. How could we push Mother back into this mess over a chicken?
"Mother, don't send the chicken to the Su family, we'll go kill it right now!"
They dared not feel sorry for the chickens anymore, and grabbed them by the wings and ran to the backyard.
The children hadn't eaten much meat, so they hadn't killed many chickens either. But being children who often did chores, they were very efficient at drawing blood, boiling water, and plucking feathers.
It seemed that she didn't need to help, so Wan Shu quietly entered the room and found the original owner's hidden stash of money under the bed.
She counted it; the original owner of this body didn't have much hidden money, only two hundred coins in total.
