Chapter 41: She is as hard as iron, and her business is a money-for-goods deal

Wei Lingxia never expected that Ah Hong, who had originally agreed with her to help her force out all the food from the Shi family's tent, would...

He will be the first to turn against us.

She ran a few steps behind Ah Hong.

"Come back, Ah Hong, come back quickly. As long as we get the food from the Shi family, your son will be saved."

Everyone is together and insists on sharing food at home.

As long as those idiots from the Shi family still want to survive in their team.

They will definitely bring out food.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that Shi Yuebai is holding a torch; she is actually just pretending.

Shi Yuebai definitely didn't dare to actually burn the food.

But Ah Hong ran very fast and returned to the tarpaulin where she lived.

He didn't respond to Wei Lingxia's call at all.

Wei Lingxia couldn't run after a few steps. Her ribs were broken by Chen Huaihai a few days ago.

It’s because I didn’t listen carefully to what Chen Huaihai said.

But Chen Huaihai hit her on the head half a month ago, and her hearing has been much worse than before.

It wasn't that Wei Lingxia was deliberately disobedient.

Wei Lingxia was sweating profusely, holding her ribs, and rested for a while on a pile of gravel.

He turned his head and looked at the Shi family's tarpaulin.

She gritted her teeth, turned around and continued to instigate everyone.

If she couldn't force the Shi family to give her food today, she would be beaten by Chen Huaihai again when she returned.

Behind the tarpaulin where Ah Hong lives, there are piles of red bricks.

It should have been pulled here before the wasteland was built to build shops next to the embankment.

However, all the edible goods in those shops had already been sold out.

Ah Hong found a wicker winnowing basket and pulled it with a hemp rope.

There was a pile of red bricks in the dustpan. She pulled the red bricks with her shoulders and ran desperately towards the Shi family.

There was a crowd of people at the door of Shi's house.

Some people were obviously mentally unstable and wanted to rush into the stone pattern of the Shi family.

I was inexplicably scared away again.

Everyone could only stand at the door and verbally condemn Shi Yuebai.

Shi Yuebai didn't care. She had been cursed and insulted since she was a child and had been subjected to malicious remarks.

It didn't hurt at all for her.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

Ah Hong rushed up, sweating profusely, dragging a basket of red bricks.

Shi Yuebai raised his eyebrows, and Ah Hong became the only woman who could enter the rubble wall.

"The red bricks you asked for!"

Ah Hong fell to the ground, looking up at Shi Yuebai eagerly.

Shi Yuebai was unmoved, "It's less than 100 yuan."

Ah Hong immediately got up and said, "I, I can still mop it. It's enough. I have a lot of red bricks at home."

Shi Yuebai pulled the corner of his mouth, like an ancient Zhou Paopi.

"You pile the red bricks over there, go ahead."

Ah Hong immediately did as Shi Yuebai instructed.

She hurried home dragging the empty dustpan.

The son on the ground was so thin that he was just a bag of bones.

The bones are covered with skin, and there is no meat inside.

His head was so big that it seemed as if his shoulders couldn't support it.

"Mother."

The son was lying on the ground, calling out to her weakly.

Ah Hong came forward crying, lay down beside her son, and kissed his forehead.

"Be good, be good, mommy will get you something to eat, just hold on a little longer."

My son blinked his eyes obediently and didn't cry or make a fuss.

In fact, he didn't have the energy to cry.

Ah Hong quickly ran to the red bricks and desperately piled them into the empty dustpan.

The hemp rope weighed down her shoulders, and she cried out, "Ah!"

A petite woman, dragging a hemp rope on her shoulders, ran desperately towards Shi's house, step by step.

After going back and forth a few times, the hemp rope soon rubbed her shoulders and started bleeding.

The people watching around, including Wei Lingxia, originally wanted to say something.

But in the end I didn’t know what to say.

"How much more is left?"

Ah Hong poured the red bricks in the dustpan onto the open space.

Half of her shoulder was covered in blood, and she knelt weakly in front of Shi Yuebai.

"One piece short."

Shi Yuebai's eyes were clear as he looked at Ah Hong intently.

Someone stood outside the fence and shouted, "One dollar short? Why not just forget it?"

"Give the bread to the man quickly, his son is dying."

"Her son is about to die, give it to her quickly."

Shi Yuebai held a long stick in his hand and looked at Ah Hong in front of him.

"Are you going to continue wasting time here, or run back and get that brick?"

Ah Hong seemed to come back to her senses suddenly. She stood up abruptly and ran home.

When she came back, she was carrying her son on her back and holding the last red brick in her arms.

"Shi Yuebai, please, give me something to eat."

"Please."

Ah Hong's tears had dried up. She sat on the ground exhausted, carrying her son on her back.

The crowd of onlookers pointed at Shi Yuebai and scolded him so much that he almost flew off the top of his head.

"How can you be like this? Don't you have any heart at all?"

"Everyone is raised by their parents, so why are you so extra cruel and ruthless?"

"Be a human being"

Everyone thought that Shi Yuebai was teasing Ah Hong.

If he was really kind-hearted, Shi Yuebai should have given Ah Hong a piece of bread for free a long time ago.

Shi Yuebai was reluctant to give up the food and wanted to tease Ah Hong, asking her to carry red bricks back and forth several times.

Looking at Ah Hong running back and forth like a fool.

Shi Yuebai might be laughing secretly in his heart.

This fat woman is really a piece of shit.

Shi Yuebai raised his eyelids and glanced at the people at the door.

"I'm sorry, I'm not a human being."

She gestured to Shi Yaoyao, asked Shi Yaoyao to take out a bottle of water, and handed Ah Hong a piece of bread.

"Exchange the bread for you."

Shi Yuebai said this with a blank expression, not even looking at Ah Hong's petrified face.

Shi Yaoyao squatted beside Ah Hong and asked curiously,

"Auntie, isn't your son almost starving to death?"

Then why is Ah Hong still in a daze?

Ah Hong reacted and looked at the small bottle of clean water in her hand.

She didn't even need a radiation detector. Just by looking at the water being so clear that she could see the bottom, she knew how precious it was.

"Too, too much."

Ah Hong's voice was dry. She didn't mean to say that she had to drag 100 red bricks for Shi Yuebai.

Shi Yuebai just gave her a piece of bread?

Then why, in addition to giving her a piece of bread, is there water that is thousands of times more precious than bread?

Shi Yuebai asked back, "Won't your mouth be very dry if you only eat bread?"

She felt that Ah Hong's son had been hungry for so long that he couldn't even produce any saliva.

If I take a bite of bread, I'm afraid I'll choke to death.

Ah Hong put in so much effort and even hurt her shoulder.

Isn’t it a waste?

It’s true that Shi Yuebai is a heartless person, but since Ah Hong has made efforts, she should be rewarded.

Ah Hong's lips trembled as she looked at Shi Yuebai's figure that was as fat as a mountain.

She kowtowed to Shi Yuebai.

His forehead touched the ground, looking very pious.

Shi Yuebai turned his head and slid the flatbed cart away.

Don't play that game with her. She's hard as a rock and only does cash on delivery.

I won't accept such a great gift.

Please give me some votes, oh oh oh.
