Famine Bride: Marry into the best in-laws and win

Xu Manyue handed the "wild vegetable soup" in her hand to Tian Lanfang and said slowly, "Since this thing is rare, why don't you drink it in front of me."

"Just consider it as my filial piety as a daughter."

"There was a famine, but they were still willing to give away their food even though they were starving. I was almost moved to tears."

"Mom, you won't refuse, right?"

Tian Lanfang's body stiffened, and she stepped back and waved her hands, "No, no, how can this be possible? This is something I brought specially for you to eat. It's the full moon...you should drink it yourself."

Just now, in order to make the color of the contents of the bowl look more like soup, she specially found a pickle jar that had not been washed for many years, put the bowl of soup in it and boiled it several times.

There were still a lot of green and red molds in the jar.

What if something happens after drinking?

As soon as Xu Manyue saw Tian Lanfang's reaction, she knew there was something wrong with this so-called "wild vegetable soup".

She scoffed and looked straight at Tian Lanfang, "You don't want to drink this soup, is there something unclean in it?"

"I remember that you repeatedly asked me to save half of my rations from my mouth. Why don't you want to do that now?"

Even though Tian Lanfang is her biological mother, when famine comes, human nature is complicated. Even her biological mother would probably want to step on her corpse to survive.

Tian Lanfang avoided her gaze very unnaturally, walked up to Xu Manyue, took her hand and touched it gently.

"...Man Yue, how could you think like that? I am your biological mother, and you are a piece of flesh that fell from my body. How could I possibly harm you?"

"Really? But why, when I was unconscious, you scolded me and pinched me hard with your nails? Is this what I call my mother?"

As Xu Manyue spoke, she spread out her shockingly bruised palm and showed it to Tian Lanfang without reservation.

"Man Yue, no...it's not like that, I just...I just..."

Tian Lanfang looked at her daughter's bloody hand, her eyes widened and she was stunned.

She clearly remembered that she didn't use any force, so how could it be so serious?

Xu Manyue had a smile on her face, but there was no smile in her eyes.

"Just what... just a careless act, or are you deliberately taking out your emotions on me?"

The wound on the palm of my hand from being pinched was still bleeding, bright red blood was flowing, and the person in front of me had a look in his eyes without any emotion.

Tian Lanfang subconsciously took a step back, "Man Yue, Mother... Mother didn't mean it. Let me explain."

She really didn't intend to hurt her own daughter, but she was too emotional at the time.

Xu Manyue raised an eyebrow, holding the bowl of "wild vegetable soup" in one hand, and approached her step by step, "Okay, explain."

She also wanted to hear how shameless some people could be.

Tian Lanfang panicked and turned around to run, but Xu Manyue grabbed her arm, pinched her jaw, and poured the bowl of "wild vegetable soup" into her mouth without leaving a single drop.

"Mother, this is my filial gift. In this famine year, food can save lives. Please don't treat it cheaply. You know, many people who are about to starve to death can't even get a drink."

"No, I don't want to drink. No... I don't want to..."

Tian Lanfang opened her eyes wide and struggled violently, but as she drank more and more of the "wild vegetable soup", the strange stench in her mouth became more and more obvious.

It was even more disgusting than some old men's smelly socks that hadn't been washed for decades. She felt nauseous and almost vomited.

Unfortunately, no matter how she struggled, Xu Manyue still poured everything in the bowl into her stomach with an expressionless face.

This movement attracted the attention of other people in the house.

The first person who heard the noise and ran out was Xu Xiangbei.

Just after he came out of Mrs. Xu and Old Man Xu's room and finished eating the rations given to him privately by the two old men, he heard the sound of his mother struggling.

So he quickly put down his bowl and chopsticks and ran out.

"Xu Manyue, you are crazy, what are you doing?"

"Let me go!"

He simply couldn't believe that his always docile sister would do such a thing to his mother.

No wonder everyone in the family gradually likes Sister Mingyue more. If it were him, he would also prefer Sister Mingyue.

When Xu Xiangbei rushed forward and tried to separate the two.

Xu Manyue had already let go of Tian Lanfang and was far away from them. She looked at the familiar people, but her mood was very calm.

For those who have died once, there is actually nothing to be unhappy about.

Family affection doesn't seem to be important to her.

Also in Old Lady Xu's room, Xu Mingyue, who was eating, ran out.

"Aunt, how are you?"

In the dark night, Xu Mingyue’s expression could not be seen clearly.

However, it can still be seen that she is slim, but not too weak.

She hurried forward and she and Xu Xiangbei supported Tian Lanfang on either side.

Tian Lanfang's face was pale. She kept pinching her throat with her fingers, bent over and retched desperately on the ground, as if she was about to vomit out her heart and lungs.

There was nothing in my stomach to begin with, and after vomiting for a long time, I only vomited out a little yellowish sour water.

After a while, she couldn't spit out anything anymore. She patted her chest, took a deep breath, and looked at Xu Manyue with a complicated look, "I'm fine, you guys go back to sleep."

If you really think about this matter, she won't get anything good out of it.

Besides, I still have to rely on the full moon to marry her, so at this time, it’s better to have less trouble than more.

"What do you mean it's okay, mother? Stop covering up for Xu Manyue. I just saw her pour something into your mouth. She must have bullied you. I'm going to teach her a lesson for you."

Xu Xiangbei's face darkened instantly, he clenched his fists and strode over.

"Xu Manyue, your mother gave birth to you and raised you, and this is how you treat her. You are so educated, yet you still have such a vicious mind."

"Today I will teach you a lesson on behalf of my mother."

He has always had a hot temper. He is okay with his family, but not so good with outsiders.

"Xiangbei, don't be impulsive. Sister Manyue is your biological sister. You can't treat her like this."

Xu Mingyue saw that something was wrong and rushed over to stop Xu Xiangbei.

"What sister? Sister Mingyue, you are my only sister. A vicious person like that is not worthy of being a member of the Xu family. Don't stop me. I must teach her a lesson today."

When Xu Xiangbei thought about having a sister like this, he felt upset.

In the past, his sister was gentle and kind, always giving in to him and protecting him. Now, his sister is vicious and jealous, and bullies his orphaned cousin every day.

She took advantage of their feelings for her and became unscrupulous and aggressive.

How could he have such a sister?

Unfortunately, blood ties cannot be changed, and he had to admit it.

"No, Xiangbei, what did you promise me? You must be obedient and not hit anyone." Xu Mingyue apologized to Xu Manyue while trying her best to stop Xu Xiangbei.

"Sister Manyue, please don't bother with Xiangbei. I apologize to you on his behalf for what happened today."
