Plane Trading: A Peasant Girl Escapes from Famine and Becomes Rich Enough of a Nation
Chapter 11: Voldemort's Attributes
Su Lao San knew that it was useless to chase after her now. The money should have been in his mother-in-law's hands long ago and he couldn't get it back. As for Xu Hui, she would come back on her own without anyone looking for her.
He originally had plans to help the Yue family, and although he wanted to keep some of the money in his hands, now that he had given it away, there was nothing he could do.
The men in the family went up the mountain again, carrying baskets and wooden buckets on their backs, without even having any meal.
Today, another wave of villagers went up the mountain. Every household wanted to make a living by relying on the mountain that was almost being stripped bare. As a result, the weeds on the mountain became less and less, and wild vegetables became even rarer.
Su Qiuyi took her two younger sisters out, and today's water was actually fetched by Su Li and her two daughters-in-law.
She didn't even ask since Xu Hui wasn't at home.
When the water was pumped back, the amount given to the third room was even less. Su Qiuyi knew that he and his two sisters could not beat grandma's gang, so he could only accept it.
She turned around and called to her two younger sisters, "Go clean up the room first. I'll go boil some medicine and cook some porridge!"
"Sister, let me help you..." Su Mingyue pulled her elder sister's arm, fearing that if her elder sister went alone and started fighting with grandma again, her elder sister would be the one who would suffer.
Su Qiuyi had his own plans in mind, so how could he possibly bring his two younger sisters in? He immediately arranged work for his two younger sisters.
Under the worried and helpless gazes of his two younger sisters, he swaggered into the kitchen.
As soon as she entered the kitchen, Mrs. Su Li's voice sounded from outside, as if she was being monitored all the time.
"The water has been distributed to you, why are you still in the kitchen? There will be no food for you in the morning! Don't even think about taking advantage of it!"
Su Qiuyi held the little water in his hand and turned around. "The water was distributed to us, but there is no food. Drinking water alone will not make us full..."
Su Qiuyi knew that a step-grandmother like this hated their family to the core and would not like anything she did, and she was too lazy to rack her brains to please her.
If she wants to get her father's wages in the future, she has to give him food.
Sure enough, Su Li turned back angrily, and after a while, she came back with a bowl of brown rice.
"You little bitch, I'm warning you. I've given you all the food and water for today. Don't go upstairs to eat anymore!"
After saying that, he turned around and left. There was no food in the kitchen anyway, so what was the harm in keeping Su Qiuyi in the kitchen?
Looking at the small bowl of brown rice on the stove, Su Qiuyi knew that if she made porridge, a thicker porridge would only be enough for one bowl for each of the five members of the family.
She shook her head and looked outside. Seeing that there was no one in the yard, she quickly took water from the infinite space water dispenser, washed the pot, put water on it and lit the fire in one go.
After the fire was lit, I had time to get a large bowl of water and drank it happily.
This kind of drinking water tastes better and has no earthy smell.
This was the most satisfying drink she had ever had since she was reborn in this place.
It is either inconvenient to get out drinking water or you can only endure the discomfort and drink water outside to quench your thirst.
The feeling of being thirsty but not being able to drink water is so uncomfortable, it's really so uncomfortable.
Watching the water in the pot boil, she put in half a bowl of brown rice and started cooking.
There was only a small bowl of food for the day, and she really didn't dare to cook it all for one meal. Besides, handsome dad was not at home, and she had to wait for him to come back in the evening to eat.
She put half a bowl of rice in to cook porridge, and took the remaining half bowl directly into the space and placed it on the desk.
Then she cooked porridge while decocting medicine for herself.
The medicine tastes bitter, but I have to drink it. The back of my head still hurts, and I have to drink it.
By the time she returned to the west wing with three bowls of thicker porridge and her medicine, her two younger sisters had cleaned up the room, which had originally been sparsely furnished.
When he saw the thick porridge brought in by the elder sister, his eyes lit up.
"Eat quickly, this is the food we got from grandma!" Su Qiuyi urged her two younger sisters.
Although it was brown rice, it was rare to have such thick porridge, and the two sisters ate it with their mouths full of sweetness.
Xu Hui came back just as the three sisters finished eating.
Seeing her three daughters each holding an empty bowl, she looked around but couldn't find her bowl. Her face looked unhappy and a little pale.
The three of them knew where the mother had gone, and no one wanted to pay attention to her.
This is a critical moment of life and death, but as a biological mother, she ignored the situation of her children and insisted on sending all her money to her parents' home. Su Qiuyi really didn't bother to care about this cheap mother.
But Xu Hui didn't think so. She turned pale and slowly walked to the kang and sat down, muttering softly, "Why didn't you bring back a bowl of porridge for me?"
Hearing this, Su Mingyue lowered her head and said nothing. Su Wenxing's face was filled with anger, and she clenched the bowl and clenched her teeth.
Su Qiuyi sneered and asked coldly, "You came back from your grandma's house without giving you breakfast?"
Hearing her daughter's unkind words, Xu Hui's tears burst out again. She reached out to grab Su Qiuyi's hand, but she dodged and then stared blankly at her empty hands.
"Your grandmother's family has run out of food. Your uncles and cousins have nothing to eat. They are so hungry that they can hardly get off the bed. I feel so sad seeing this. What's wrong with sending some money to them? They are your blood relatives after all! How come you have learned to be so cold-blooded at such a young age? Woo woo woo... It's my fault for not teaching you well..."
Su Qiuyi shook his head. The idea deeply rooted in this man's mind was to rob his mother's family, and he still didn't know it was wrong.
"Did you give a little? You stole all the money from Dad! Mom, have you ever thought about what would happen to our family if we didn't have that money?"
Su Wenxing immediately responded to her elder sister's words, "Grandma doesn't allow us to go upstairs to eat. If it weren't for my elder sister, we wouldn't have had anything to eat in the morning!"
Su Mingyue was weak in character but she did not stop talking. Seeing that her sisters had already spoken, she also spoke in a low voice, "Mom, you were not at home so early in the morning. How could grandma leave food for you?"
When Xu Hui heard that her three daughters had strong opinions about her, she cried even louder and her whole body twitched.
Su Qiuyi didn't want to pay attention to her and went out with three empty bowls.
Su Mingyue tried to comfort her mother and told her to stop crying, but Xu Hui's voice became louder and louder, accusing the father and his two daughters of being ruthless and cold-blooded.
It was not until Su Li banged on the door and started cursing that Xu Hui's voice stopped as if a floodgate had been closed.
As soon as Su Qiuyi came out of the kitchen, she heard a dripping sound in her head. She quickly made an excuse to go to the bathroom and ran to the backyard.
Wen Xin'er's message came, and soon with a ding sound, a storage compartment popped open.
The moment Su Qiuyi got one or two taels of gold, he was so excited that he almost jumped up.
Wen Xin'er: "Sister, do you have any plant seeds? If you do, please give me some more. The more the better."
Su Qiuyi: "It's not that easy. I'm still injured. I have to find a way to get it for you! Wait for my news!"
Wen Xiner immediately replied to ask her how she was injured and how she was doing. Finally, she said that the medicine she had was better and asked Su Qiuyi to exchange plant seeds for medicine.
