Chapter 54: A War Started by a Bite of Food



After dinner, when everyone was packing up and preparing to go back to the house, some people started to speak in a sarcastic manner.

"Yuxian! You guys eat all the fish by yourself. You don't even know to share some with our fellow countrymen when you have fish!" Shulan said to Qin Yuxian with some indignation.

"You eat rice and flour. Have you shared any with us?" Qin Yuxian asked back without showing any weakness.

"You don't buy yourselves some fine food! Are you blaming me?" Shu Lan said with a cold face.

"Then why don't you go catch some fish yourself? Are you blaming me?" Qin Yuxian retorted.

"What do you mean we won't share with you fellow villagers? We are all the same batch of educated youth from the same educated youth compound. Shouldn't everyone share the fish and meat?" Song Lai Di couldn't help but speak.

She had never eaten meat in her entire life and had long forgotten the taste of meat, let alone fish. She was so greedy that her mouth was watering.

"What you mean is that you new educated youth are all together, but we old educated youth are different from you and are far away from you, right?" Du Xingfang couldn't help but say after hearing what Song Lai Di said.

"What does this have to do with you?" Seeing that it was Du Xingfang who was speaking, Song Lai Di was a little angry at her meddling.

"Why does it not matter? Isn't that what you meant just now?" The old educated youth Li Na also spoke up for Du Xingfang.

"Come on! Stop arguing! We won't share anything with anyone! If you want to eat, go get it from the river! This is the fruit of other people's labor! Why should we share it with others?"

Su Nian was annoyed to death when he saw them split into two factions and quarreling with each other, so he spoke directly.

"That's right! Why should I give it to you? You're dreaming!" Qin Yuxian also said.

"The Canglan River won't run away! There are plenty of fish waiting for you to catch! Captain Chen said that you signed that agreement, so you can catch as many as you want!" Sun Yanyan also shared the same hatred.

"Su Zhiqing! You are so selfish!" Su Yiyi no longer dared to call her sister, and directly called her Su Zhiqing.

"You are not selfish! Take out your money and tickets and share them with everyone!" Su Nian glared at Su Yiyi and said to her.

"How can that be..." Su Yiyi couldn't help but blurt out when she heard that Su Nian was thinking about her few banknotes.

She and Gu Qingxu came here by bus. After deducting the bus fare, the daily necessities and snacks they bought yesterday, and the cheapest clam oil they bought, they only had more than 20 yuan left and a few receipts.

"What? So your things are treasures, and other people's things are just blown away by the wind, right?

"If you buy fish, it should cost at least one yuan per pound, right? If others don't share their money with you, they are selfish. If you don't share your money with others, you are not selfish?" Su Nian sneered.

Su Yiyi's face turned red after hearing what Su Nian said.

"You do nothing all day long, but just think about taking advantage of others! You are not beautiful, but you have beautiful dreams! The abacus beads are clacking! Doesn't your face hurt? Or are you too thick-skinned that the abacus beads don't hurt you..." Su Nian's little machine gun was "bang bang", and Su Yiyi couldn't even lift her head.

The others stopped arguing or quarreling at this time. Although Su Nian didn't say anything to them, what was the difference between this and killing a chicken to scare the monkeys?

Aren't they just jealous of others who have fish to eat?

"If you want to take advantage of me, you have to ask me if I agree!" Qin Yulin saw that they were all obedient, and spoke in a cold and expressionless face.

How can a girl be allowed to bear such pressure?

"That's all I have to say today! Go get whatever you want to eat! Whatever our team gets is the result of our hard work, and it has nothing to do with you! We won't take advantage of you in the slightest!"

"You are really ungrateful! At the beginning, you had no water and firewood, and you used ours!" Du Xingfang couldn't help but mutter.

"Li Tao! Tell me! Are we done yet?" Qin Yuxian couldn't help but ask when she saw Du Xingfang arguing with Qin Yulin.

"I paid it back! Double! I even gave you three eggs as compensation for the pot I used once. That's what you ate the day before yesterday!" Li Tao, who had been silent all this time, said with a cold face.

He now feels a little embarrassed, and at the beginning, he felt a little uncomfortable.

After Su Nian's words and Qin Yulin's retort, he finally came to his senses.

In these days when people can starve to death, who doesn’t hold on to food to fill their stomachs?

Put yourself in their shoes. If you haven't had any oil or water for several months, and you bought half a pound of meat, could you give two ounces to others?

The answer is of course no. Why should you ask others to do something that you can’t do yourself?

He felt ashamed of himself for thinking about the food in other people's mouths!

After Li Tao said this, Li Na, who originally wanted to talk to Du Xingfang, moved her mouth but ultimately did not speak again.

Su Yiyi was extremely upset by Su Nian's criticism. She could only lower her head and wipe away her tears pretending to be aggrieved.

"Su Nian! Why are you so cold-blooded? Yiyi is your sister! What's wrong with eating a bite of your fish?" Gu Qingxu couldn't bear to see Su Yiyi being wronged, so he protected Su Yiyi and said.

"Gu Qingxu! You said she is my sister? Don't try to make connections here! I don't have a sister who came from a den of human traffickers!

It’s not enough to harm yourself! You’ve also harmed others! My dad was harmed by her and her mother! I’ve cut off all ties with him! And you dare to call her my sister! How shameless! "

When Su Nian saw Gu Qingxu saying that Su Yiyi was his sister in front of so many people, she retorted decisively.

"Gu Qingxu! What nonsense are you talking about! Su Zhiqing and I have nothing to do with each other!" Su Yiyi denied it immediately after hearing it.

The whole yard was filled with inquiring eyes. Su Yiyi didn't dare to offend Su Nian. Otherwise, with Su Nian's sharp tongue, he could turn black into white and white into green. Who knows what he would say next!

Gu Qingxu was sobered after being yelled at by Su Yiyi! It was not easy to talk about Su Yiyi's life experience, otherwise, she would be stabbed in the back.
