Chapter 503 Seven Sisters Part Two

Early the next morning, Su Tong had to get up from the bed, put on the only pair of pants he and his sisters had, take a small water bottle, and run downstairs tremblingly.

The weather has been getting colder recently, and they only have one water pipe. The water is turned on for a limited time every day. If there is no water at this time, there will probably be no water for the whole day, so Su Tong has to get more water.

However, the only things they could use to collect water were this kettle and the basin they used to wash their faces. This kettle was also a kettle for boiling water, but their family had no money to buy coal, so this kettle usually served as a bucket.

I have already gotten up early, but there are still people queuing up in front of me to get water. Finally, it is Su Tong's turn. After getting a full pot of water, I walked upstairs tremblingly with the water in my hand.

Although he was already 14 years old, he looked so frail due to long-term malnutrition that he might even fall down if the wind blew.

The people living in this tube-shaped building are all from similar families, but there are very few who are poorer than theirs. It would be fine if they were just poor, but the key is that they don’t even realize it. In order to have a boy, they even borrowed a lot of money from others.

The breakfast for their family of seven was a bowl of corn porridge with some chopped wild vegetables, which they picked themselves in the cold wind.

After Su Tong finished cooking the meal, he put a small white pill into the pot while no one was paying attention, and then served the meal as if nothing had happened.

After Su Tong finished all this, He Cuihua came out with a big belly. Her due date was in the next few days, but she was reluctant to stay in the hospital to give birth, and planned to give birth at home.

However, the other party did go to the hospital when she gave birth to her. But because she was reincarnated at that time and thought she was a boy, she was willing to spend the money. After learning that she was a girl, the couple was discharged from the hospital the next day. They even gave birth to their second and third children at home. But at that time they at least hired a midwife. Later, they even refused to hire a midwife because even if they hired a midwife, they would have to give the other party a few eggs or something else, and they are reluctant to do that now.

He Cuihua was really lucky. She gave birth alone and cut the umbilical cord of her child by herself. There were no problems afterwards, haha...

Su Tong put the prepared food on the table, and at the same time considerately poured a glass of wine for Su Jianguo, and then grabbed a handful of peanuts on the table.

When He Cuihua saw the peanuts, her mouth instantly watered. She hadn't eaten anything good for a long time. Even when she was pregnant, she could only eat one egg a month at most, and it was difficult for her to even get a full meal.

He Cuihua carefully looked inside the house, and when she found that Su Jianqiang had not come out, she picked up a peanut and threw it into her mouth, pretending to ask casually: "Where did this peanut come from? Are you hiding it?"

Su Tong lowered his head, "Mom, how dare I hide the delicious food? I was just helping the neighbor's old lady carry a bucket of water, and she gave me a handful of peanuts. I couldn't bear to eat them. Dad is the only man in the family, and he's working outside. I have to save these peanuts for him."

He Cuihua did not doubt Su Tong's words. After all, she was an honest girl and would not lie. However, the peanuts were too small, only a few dozen in total...

He Cuihua originally wanted to eat two more, but she heard footsteps behind her. He Cuihua could only swallow hard and force a smile.

"Boss, you're finally awake. Let's eat quickly, otherwise you'll be late for work." Su Jianqiang nodded, sat on the chair next to him, saw the peanuts for wine, and the wine next to it, and nodded happily.

"Girl, you've done very well. When I get off work tonight, I'll find you a good marriage, and then you'll be able to enjoy a peaceful life." Su Daqiang threw peanuts into his mouth and took a sip of wine. He didn't dare to drink too much because of work. Then he picked up the porridge beside him and sipped a mouthful or two.

"It's beautiful, really so beautiful. How wonderful it would be if I could live like this every day." Su Daqiang hummed a little tune and ate peanuts. After drinking the glass of wine, he finished the porridge. Finally, he patted his belly and went to work happily.

The men finished eating, and then it was the turn of the little girls. Although the girls didn't have pants, they didn't feel too cold and came out with bare legs.

There were no stools in the house, so they squatted in the corner and ate one by one with their bowls. Yes, their family was so poor that they only had three or four bowls in total, which meant that the girls had to eat one by one.

He Cuihua pretended not to see it and sat aside, leisurely drinking porridge with her bowl. She drank the thickest one. Thinking of the peanut she had just eaten, her mouth was about to water.

Su Tong watched the other person finish the porridge, and immediately picked up He Cuihua's bowl, "Mom, you've worked hard carrying your brother, I'll go to the kitchen and get you another bowl of rice."

The food in the house was rationed, and He Cuihua had to set aside the amount of food she would eat every day, and then the original owner would go according to the amount. Now if He Cuihua wanted to have one more bowl of rice, it meant that someone else would have nothing to eat. But He Cuihua didn't care who had nothing to eat, on the contrary, she was happy that she could have one more bowl of rice.

Su Tong turned his back and served his bowl of porridge to He Cuihua. He then quietly sprinkled some white powder on it, mixed it well, and handed it directly to He Cuihua.

He Cuihua didn't think much about it and drank it all in one gulp. She even licked the bowl clean without even having to wash it.

After finishing her meal, He Cuihua patted her big belly, told her eldest brother to clean up the house, and then ran to her room to take a nap. She also told the little girls to speak softly so as not to disturb her sleep.

The girls were also very well behaved. After finishing their meals, they returned to their rooms one by one, lay in the cold quilt, and waited for time to pass.

Because there were only girls in their family, they were not allowed to have lunch, but He Cuihua was an exception. She could have a bowl of porridge alone.

Su Tong was not idle. There was only one pair of pants in the house. After cleaning the house, he carried a small basket and walked towards the woods. He also had to dig some wild vegetables outside before winter came, otherwise they would not even have a chance to drink enough water.

Su Tong thought of his thin sisters and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Even if there was food in the space, he didn't dare to take it out now. Actually, the girls all had a quota, but all these things were taken by Su Jianqiang and his wife. In order to have a son, the couple borrowed a lot of money, and Su Jianqiang never wronged himself, so the couple lived a good life, but the other children in the family had to starve.

When Su Tong ran into the woods, it was already autumn, and there were not many wild vegetables in the woods. Even if there were some, most of them were old, like old tree bark that could not be any older. They were simply inedible, so he could only pick the tenderest ones.
