I traveled through time and space to hunt and support my family in ancient times
Chapter 6: A Full Stomach
In the big room, they were worried about Jiang Yue and hoped that she would not get hurt. In other people's room, they viciously wanted to beat to death the fool who stole the meat. He deserved to die!
Jiang Yue touched her face and blood came out from her forehead, flowing down her cheeks, sliding across her nose, gathering at her chin, and falling down with a plop.
She came back to get her parents to help her. Unexpectedly, she was not paying attention and was hit by the bowl thrown by old man Jiang!
Jiang Yue walked towards Old Man Jiang step by step with a bloody face. Jiang Youtian, who was close to him, shivered with fear and hid behind Old Man Jiang.
Old man Jiang's face turned pale and he cursed in his heart, "You unfilial son, at this critical moment, you pushed me in front to block the way?"
How could the bowl I casually threw hit the target so accurately? This kid is crazy and wants to eat people!
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Jiang Yue made an unexpected move and actually picked up a few steamed breads from the basket. There were so many broken rules in ancient times, and the word "filial piety" could crush a person to death. Old man Jiang should remember this account first and take a few more steamed breads to pay for the medical expenses!
Liu wanted to curse, but she felt terrified when she saw Jiang Yue's head covered in blood.
The others were already terrified. Is this Jiang Yue? Is this a ghost?
"Bang--"
Everyone was shocked again. Before Jiang Yue left, he actually knocked the door panel off with a straight punch!
You have to know that the door of the main hall is three fingers thick. How could a child be so strong? Everyone in the main hall was terrified. If this fist hit them...
It was not until the eldest wife walked back to the backyard that Liu's cursing voice was heard from the main room, but it sounded weak.
Jiang Yue thought: My intimidation still worked. They are not afraid of fools, but what about madmen?
In front of this kind of person, no matter how many nice words you say, your fists are useless.
The pheasant was almost cooked, and in a moment Jiang Yue placed the meat in front of the broken table and took out steamed buns from her arms, one, two, three... a total of six.
Jiang Xue said crisply: "I brought back six."
"Eat, one per person."
Jiang Xue was surprised: "Sister can count!"
Jiang Ming came in with some herbs and held up two fingers: "Big sister, what is this?"
Jiang Yue twitched the corners of her mouth.
Jiang Lei put down the steamed bread in his hand, his eyes sparkling, and raised three fingers: "Sister, how many is this?"
Jiang Youshan was also happy and approached Jiang Yue: "How many people are there in our family?"
Jiang Yue sighed inwardly: "Eat, eat."
Cai cried out, turned around and picked up the handkerchief. Yue'er's head was still covered in blood.
Jiang Ming applied medicine and Cai bandaged the wound. After they treated it, the family finally sat down and started eating.
"Dad, why don't we ask a doctor to check on Yue'er? Maybe after taking a few doses of medicine, Yue'er will be completely cured!"
Jiang Yue realized that this family had no doubts about her, so she pulled Jiang Youshan to sit down and said, "No, I'm fine."
Jiang Youshan was overjoyed and asked persistently, "Yue'er, how many people are there in our family?"
"Six."
"who am I?"
"You are Jiang Youshan, my father."
Everyone was stunned.
They have been looking forward to Jiang Yue's mental improvement for many years, and hope that the pain will decrease year by year. That would be great!
Jiang Yue touched her stomach and said, "I'll be fine after I eat."
Jiang Xue sobbed, "So that's how it is. Grandma never let my sister have enough to eat, how could she get better?"
Jiang Lei lowered his head. It was not just the eldest sister. In the entire family of the first wife, who had ever had a full meal?
Jiang Youshan's face was visibly ashamed: "It's all my fault for being useless. You guys are suffering..."
Cai sighed and started crying again.
Jiang Ming was furious: "No one is useless except Dad. Dad works the most in the fields and Mom is the busiest at home, so why doesn't he share the food with us? He is not our grandmother! Bah, Dad, can't you divide the family property?"
Jiang Youshan coughed and said, "It wasn't easy for your grandfather either. He had to take care of a large family. How could he ask for a division? Your fourth uncle still needs to spend money on his studies. Dad is the eldest, so you should understand..."
Cai also followed suit and said that she would work harder and share more responsibilities in the future.
Jiang Yue was furious. Her family was starving to death, and she was still considerate? She said seriously, "Are we going to live like this forever without sharing food?"
Jiang Youshan paused and said, "I will go and ask for help when your grandmother calms down."
Jiang Yue was speechless, and neither were the other children. They ate the meat with the steamed bread.
Cai looked at the half basin of meat that the children left for them and said hesitantly, "Dad, this half basin has not been touched yet, why don't you send this meat to the front..."
Jiang Youshan looked at Jiang Yue cautiously for some reason and asked tentatively: "Yue'er, your grandparents didn't eat..."
Jiang Ming's eyes were filled with hatred: "Dad, do you want us to be dragged to the front yard and kneel for a whole night?"
There were many quarrels like this in the past, and every time there was a quarrel, the eldest wife always suffered in the end. She was either punished to kneel or slapped on the palm. The eldest sister didn't know how to hide, so how much suffering did she suffer for this?
When this half basin of meat was sent to the front yard, my grandmother would force the eldest family to apologize and apologize for their unfilial behavior, and finally make them kneel for a night.
Jiang Youshan closed his mouth.
Jiang Xue grabbed the basin and put it on the table, "Dad, Mom, do you want to eat it or not? If not, I'll pour it out!"
Jiang Youshan and Cai looked at each other and whispered, "How can you waste food like that? Dad and mom won't eat it, so save it for you to eat tomorrow."
Jiang Yue smelled the stench that drifted in from the yard from time to time, and she didn't like this excessive humility in her heart: "If I let you eat, then eat it. If you don't want to eat it, it's a pity!"
If it is good for the child, stand up and separate the family! Please get rid of the slavery of the old witch in front and move out of this broken house.
Cheap parents are useless.
Just wait, sooner or later she will bring the first wife to change her fate. Otherwise, several children will be implicated to death by this pair of parents.
Seeing the anger on Jiang Yue's face, Jiang Youshan and his wife did not dare to say anything in rebuttal, and obediently ate up half a bowl of meat.
After eating and drinking, Jiang Youshan touched his belly. It felt so good to have food in his stomach! It had been so many years since he felt full.
"Don't go weeding tomorrow. Give me the hoe."
"What's wrong, Yue'er? What are you doing with the hoe? Let Dad do it."
Jiang Ming smiled: "Dad, I'm here, don't worry about it, my elder sister is going to dig taro."
"What, mountain taro?"
"You can't touch that!"
Jiang Youshan and Cai came over together and checked Jiang Yue's body: "Girl, don't touch that thing, it's poisonous. Does it itch?"
"itch."
There was a lot of smelly water and mosquitoes around the old house, and Jiang Yue had been bitten several times.
"Ah, stop scratching. Dad will go get a doctor."
Jiang Yue sighed. Her adoptive father was a coward at home, but he was very good to her.
Although she was touched, she said expressionlessly, "Do you have money?"
Jiang Youshan: ...Only girls can talk, how could she poke his lungs like that?
What to do? He can't hold his head up at home.
Jiang Ming explained: "Taro is not poisonous if it is cooked."
Ignoring the surprise on his parents' faces, Jiang Ming told them about feeding the pigs and chickens with roasted taro.
He said nothing about the secret taste he had taken.
The two were stunned. Why is Ming'er going crazy with Yue'er? What if the pig dies from eating taro?
So much so that that night, Jiang Youshan and his companion got up frequently to check on the two pigs in the pigsty.
Until morning, the two pigs and the rooster were fine, so the family roasted the remaining taro and shared it with some suspicion.
It’s sweet and sticky, not only delicious, but also more filling than just drinking vegetable porridge.
It was not yet the busy farming season, so Jiang Youshan decided to do odd jobs at the village head's house. He heard that the village head's house was being renovated, and he would get a free lunch and 10 copper coins.
Several children also went out to the mountains to dig taro.
Before leaving, Jiang Lei, like a little adult, shook his head and said, "Who knows what the people ahead will do to us today."
Jiang Xue told Cai to be careful.
Cai just touched Jiang Xue's hair and said, "Mother has given birth to a girl who is a cause for worry. Go quickly, look after your sister when you go out, and don't lose the hoe."
