Fast-forward to the era of cannon fodder

Occasionally, when she was cooking, she would steal a bite or two when no one was around, but she didn't dare eat too much, otherwise if her family found out, she would be beaten.

Ever since her brother came home, perhaps to thank her for helping to take care of his nephew, he would leave a few bites of food for her every time he ate.

Two mouthfuls indeed.

If she keeps too much, her mother will make a fuss and get angry at her brother.

But these two days, with her sister-in-law at home, she ate meat, rice, and other delicious food that she couldn't even eat during the Chinese New Year.

My sister-in-law said that the countryside is good. As long as you work hard, you can have enough food and support yourself. She is eager to leave this home and go to a place where she has no family, and then live the life she wants.

She doesn't ask for wealth and fame, she just wants to have enough food to eat every day.

No matter how hard or tiring it is, she is not afraid.

In the evening, Guo's father, mother, and Guo Jingling returned home from get off work. Mother Guo was holding a large cabbage and a few fist-sized potatoes in her hands. "Yuanchun, these are the vegetables for today and tomorrow. I'll put them in the lower shelf of the cupboard."

"Okay, Mom, I understand." Yuanchun was cooking rice in the kitchen.

Mother Guo looked at the half-empty rice bag and cried out in pain, "Yuanchun, we still have coarse grains at home. We have to eat coarse grains and fine grains together. If we eat all the fine grains, it will hurt your throat if we only eat coarse grains."

"Oh, I see, Mom. I'll cook whole grain rice tomorrow morning."

Mother Guo's expression eased a little, "Then you cook, I'll go back to my room and rest for a while."

In the evening, Yuanchun fried a plate of scrambled eggs with green onions, a plate of cabbage slices, and a plate of shredded potatoes. After she brought the food to the table, she served herself a big bowl of rice, then put the scrambled eggs with green onions in front of herself and ate it in big chunks.

When Guo's father, mother, and Guo Jingling saw this, no one dared to say anything, for fear that Yuanchun would get angry and beat them up.

Guo Xiaotao had been beaten three times during the day. When he looked at Yuanchun, there was only hatred in his little eyes, but no fear.

He picked up the chopsticks and quickly put three eggs into his bowl, then buried his head and ate them in big mouthfuls... After he finished, when he wanted to pick up more, Yuanchun glared at him, "Why, you're greedy, you still want to eat eggs? Do you believe I will sew your mouth shut with a needle?"

"You dare not." Guo Xiaotao said bitterly, "My grandma bought this egg for me, so I have to eat it."

He threw down his chopsticks and reached directly for the plate.

Oh, catch it.

Anyway, she was full and satisfied.

Yuanchun didn't stop him this time.

Guo Xiaotao was like a madman. He grabbed handfuls of eggs and stuffed them into his mouth as if he hadn't eaten for 800 years.

Yuanchun laughed sarcastically, "Tsk tsk tsk, eldest son, you said your grandparents and your father have high salaries, and they use their salaries to raise a child like you, so how come you are so greedy? Do they abuse you and don't give you good food?"

"Your uncle works in the slaughterhouse. If you want to eat meat, go ask your uncle for it. He will definitely give it to you. If he doesn't, you can beat him up until he gives it to you."

"Shen Yuanchun, what nonsense are you talking about? How can you educate a child like this?" Guo Jingling's face was as black as ink. He glared at her gloomily, "Shen Yuanchun, Xiao Tao is still young and doesn't understand anything. Don't tell him these messed up words. It's easy for him to learn bad things."

"Oh my, your eldest son has already learned bad things a long time ago, how can it be me who taught him bad things?" Yuanchun pointed at Guo Jinghong, "Last night, he was unhappy and beat and scolded his aunt. This is the aunt who treats him as her own son and takes care of him every day, but he can beat and scold her at will. Tsk tsk tsk... Such a bad child, how can you still have the nerve to say that I taught him bad things?"
