Those huge buckets of eggs were soaking in cold water.
Su Muyao then called over the children among the refugees to collect the eggs.
The main purpose was to give these children something to eat first; each child received three eggs.
Seeing the little ones quietly lining up, these children, though young, are very well-behaved.
Some of the younger children were carried by their parents, but most of the children who could walk went to line up on their own.
Su Muyao followed several experts in front, distributing eggs.
Especially seeing one of the little girls, who was so thin and pitiful, basically skin and bones.
After giving her three eggs, she took them and went to her grandmother's side.
"Grandma is giving you an egg."
An elderly woman, probably in her sixties, looked at her granddaughter with a kind expression.
"Grandma won't eat it, sweetie, you can eat it yourself."
"Grandma is eating too. Grandma is eating with my baby. My baby can hear Grandma's stomach growling."
The old lady looked at her little granddaughter with a face full of satisfaction.
The flood swept away her son and daughter-in-law, and even her newborn grandson was gone.
The old lady originally wanted to find a place to live out her days, but suddenly she found her little granddaughter in the crowd.
After the little granddaughter was swept away, she was pulled back by a family on the roof below.
The little girl then went to the refugee camp with the family.
When the old lady learned that she still had a granddaughter alive, her despair was extinguished once again.
No matter what, I have to raise my granddaughter to adulthood. If I were to die, how would such a young child survive?
After figuring it out, he no longer had the thought of dying.
The people with children were overjoyed to see their kids receive eggs and enjoy them.
For them, their children are their life; they would rather starve to death than let their children die.
However, there are always some selfish and greedy people.
One of the men saw his daughter bring back three eggs and immediately snatched them away.
"Eat, eat, eat! All this money-losing good-for-nothing does is eat."
The girl's mother glared angrily at her husband: "Look at what other people's fathers are like, and then look at you."
Ya Ya is your own flesh and blood, how can you treat her like this?
All the other kids are chubby and healthy, but our little girl is so thin she's practically skin and bones.
"Are you really sure you can eat this egg?"
The man looked at his usually obedient wife who suddenly contradicted him.
He immediately became unhappy and slapped the woman across the face.
"I am the pillar of this family. If I starve to death, how will you two survive?"
She's a money-loser. If you had given birth to a son, I would have raised him to be as chubby and healthy as everyone else.
Besides, you always think other people's homes are better, so why don't you go live with them yourself?
The woman saw stars after being slapped.
My heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Her parents had strongly opposed the relationship before, but she felt that as long as a man was good to her, it didn't matter whether he came from a good family or not.
Only after getting married did I realize the bitterness involved.
They were basically struggling to make ends meet, but luckily they knew how to embroider, so they could embroider handkerchiefs to sell and improve their diet.
But ever since Da Ya was born, her family's attitude towards her has changed.
They felt that they had given birth to a useless, money-losing child, and most importantly, they had damaged their bodies during childbirth, making it difficult for them to conceive again in the future.
When her mother-in-law found out, she was constantly beaten and scolded, and she didn't even get to rest during her postpartum period.
The day after giving birth, she started washing clothes for the whole family, cooking, and cleaning.
Fortunately, as the girl grows up, she becomes very sensible.
The little girl didn't say anything when her father took the egg away from her; she just kept her head down.
She originally thought that with three eggs, her mother would at least get one.
I never imagined that my father would eat all three eggs.
My mother hasn't eaten anything for two whole days.
The biscuits brought from home were always eaten by my father.
Only on the first day did her mother secretly slip herself half a pancake.
Then I gave the cake to my mother, who said she had already eaten half of it.
Seeing her daughter's dazed expression, the woman hugged her tightly.
She comforted her with heartache, saying, "Don't be afraid, Yaya. I'll make sure you have enough to eat from now on."
The little girl looked at her mother with bright eyes and nodded.
The man looked at the mother and daughter with obvious dissatisfaction.
"Now that you don't have to serve your in-laws anymore, why do you still act like my family is abusing you?"
Upon hearing this, the woman simply lowered her head, lost in thought.
The man felt that without those two old men, his life was much more comfortable; at least no one was bothering him anymore.
Just then, the flood came, and the man was only concerned with running away.
The old woman wanted to help the elderly man, but the old man had difficulty walking, so the old woman wanted her son to carry him.
But the son disagreed, so the woman carried her father-in-law out on her back.
When the flood comes, the woman may no longer be able to protect her parents-in-law and will only be able to hold her child.
The old woman never imagined that her precious son would abandon her when the flood came.
Just as the flood was about to come, the old woman clung to her son and refused to let go, making the man carry the old man on his back.
The man watched as his mother kept pulling him away, preventing him from leaving.
Seeing that the flood was approaching, he pushed the old lady to the ground.
The old woman bumped into the stone.
She tried to climb up several times but couldn't get up from the ground. She just watched her son's back as he walked away in despair.
At this moment, the woman, still holding the child, was frantically pulling at the old woman, urging her to leave quickly.
The old lady gave the woman a deep look, then shook her head and told her to take the child and leave quickly, and that it would be best if the woman could find a time to divorce her son.
"Xin'er, we've wronged you. If you could, you should divorce that bastard."
With your abilities, you could raise Yaya to adulthood.
As he spoke, he pushed the woman forcefully, urging her to leave quickly.
Seeing that the flood was approaching, he had no choice but to leave with Yaya in his arms.
If a woman thinks about her mother-in-law's words, she may have already forgiven her at that moment.
It's possible that the older generation was more sexist and favored sons over daughters, and they only realized this on their deathbed, though it was already too late.
But she was right; with her abilities, she should be able to support her own daughter.
After thinking it through, the woman looked up at the man who was still eating eggs with a determined expression.
"I have something to tell you."
The man didn't even look up: "Just say what you want to say."
After taking a deep breath, the woman said, "Let's get a divorce!"
Only then did the man suddenly raise his head to look at the woman.
"What did you say? You're just a worthless woman no one wants, with this money-losing child, and you dare to talk to me about divorce?"
