Traveling through time and space to become a child, supporting the family by catching fish and shrim

Chen Lang returned to the room and saw Li Xiuzhi sitting on the edge of the bed holding Guoguo. Both mother and daughter looked pale.

Li Xiuzhi didn't expect that Chen Lang would become so radical that he would fight with his parents-in-law just for a meal.

He had never behaved like this when eating before. He would just finish his meal and leave. As for whether his daughter and himself had anything to eat, Chen Lang never cared.

But today, Chen Lang not only quarreled with his parents-in-law, he even poured out the pot of rice!

Although this action was very satisfying, deep down, Li Xiuzhi still felt that Chen Lang had gone a bit too far.

After all, those are all food, and wasting food will bring divine punishment.

Chen Lang had finally changed, but if he was punished by heaven, how would he and his daughter survive...

Wait, that's not right...

Why did I start hoping that Chen Lang would get better?

In the past, I wished he would be punished by God!

Li Xiuzhi was lost in her dilemma, but Chen Lang didn't know. He took out the leftover pancakes from last night and stuffed them into the hands of his wife and daughter, saying, "This is better than the bran porridge we feed the chickens. Let's eat this."

Guoguo licked his lips, took a bite, and then his little face wrinkled up.

"Daddy, I can't bite it."

Chen Lang knocked on the pancake and found it was as hard as an iron plate.

"Wait, Daddy will get some hot water."

Chen Lang ran to the kitchen and found that Old Man Chen and the others were eating again, and the food was even better than before.

Before it was black flour steamed buns, now it is white flour steamed buns!

Seeing Chen Lang, several people subconsciously hid the steamed buns, fearing that Chen Lang would do something stupid and throw these away.

Chen Lang snorted and tasted the flavor.

It turns out that sorghum rice porridge and black flour steamed buns are just for show. You all cook for yourselves behind our family's backs!

However, Chen Lang was too lazy to argue with them, so he filled two bowls of hot water and left.

Chen Silang trembled and said, "I was really afraid that my second brother would throw away the white flour buns as well."

Old Man Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "He dares!"

Chen Silang said, "But it's a bit strange that Second Brother didn't react at all when he saw us eating white flour buns."

Qin slapped her thigh and said, "I remember now. This guy bought some pancakes last night and must have a few left. He's got some hot water to soak them in."

Old Man Chen frowned. "Hasn't it always been you who collected the government subsidies? Where did he get the money to buy pancakes?"

Qin took a bite of the steamed bun and said, "Who knows? Maybe those bad friends in the county gave it to me."

After saying that, he poked Chen Silang's arm and said, "Fourth Brother, go see what your second brother is doing and see if he is really eating pancakes."

Chen Silang's head shook like a rattle, "No, no, my second brother is going to beat me up."

Qin tapped Chen Silang's forehead fiercely. "You useless thing! How can a mere scholar like him beat you? Besides, I'm just going to take a look, not ask you to go in and beg for it. What are you afraid of?"

"Hurry up and go, or I won't let you eat the steamed buns."

Faced with the temptation of steamed buns, Chen Silang could only muster up the courage to walk to the door of Chen Lang's house, take a furtive look inside, and then quickly ran back to the kitchen.

"Mom, my second brother is really eating the pancakes. He broke them apart and put them in water. They tasted delicious."

"And... and..."

Qin urged, "And what?"

"I heard from Guoguo that there is meat in the pancake!" Chen Silang swallowed his saliva after saying this.

Although the Chen family's conditions were not too bad and they could eat meat every now and then, meat had a natural appeal to a teenager, and he wanted to eat it every meal.

Two days had passed since the last time he had eaten meat, and Chen Silang had been craving for it for a long time. Now, seeing Guoguo, who couldn't even afford to eat on weekdays, eating meat pancakes, not only did he feel extremely greedy, but he also felt an inexplicable jealousy in his heart.

Old Man Chen knocked Chen Silang on the head with his chopsticks and said, "Alright, it's just meat. Look at what you've done."

"Hurry up and finish eating, I have to go to the county town to work soon."

Chen Silang nodded angrily.

Qin said, "Master, when you go to the county, remember to go to the government office and ask when this month's student allowance will be issued."

"Because that bastard might take it away early."

Old man Chen nodded and said, "I know. Let's eat."

……

Inside Chen Lang's house.

Li Xiuzhi and Guoguo shared a bowl of pancakes, while Chen Lang enjoyed the other bowl alone.

In fact, Chen Lang also wanted to join them, but considering that the relationship between the two sides had just eased, it was not yet time for them to share a bowl of rice.

Forcing them to join would only cause panic among the mother and daughter.

Chen Lang was thinking while eating.

He always felt that he was not a part of the Chen family.

As the eldest son and a student, he lived like an animal in the Chen family.

If a rural family has a scholar, not only will they set up an altar to commemorate him, but he will definitely be the one who has the final say in the family.

But Chen Lang had no sense of existence in the Chen family. Even after being beaten up by those ruffians in the county, the Chen family did not even offer to find a doctor for him, leaving him to fend for himself.

Could it be that Chen Erlang was really picked up by the Chen family?

The more Chen Lang thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, because from childhood to adulthood, Chen Erlang had always been the most wronged one in the family.

Eat what is left by the older brothers.

Wearing, also what is left by the older brothers.

No matter who made a mistake among the brothers and sisters in the family, Chen Erlang would always be the one to be beaten in the end.

In order to get away from all this, Chen Erlang studied hard, hoping to gain fame and leave home.

In order to raise money for his studies, Chen Erlang learned to steal and cheat. However, it was funny that Qin happily accepted the money Chen Erlang earned by stealing and cheating. She was completely unlike a normal mother. She taught Chen Erlang not to do these things and even encouraged Chen Erlang to do more.

Unfortunately, Chen Erlang was not good at studying. He took exams for several years but got no results. In the blink of an eye, he reached the age to get married.

The betrothal money for marrying Li Xiuzhi was also more than two taels of silver that Chen Erlang had saved by stealing and cheating.

After marrying Li Xiuzhi and having a son named Guoguo, he thought his life would get better. However, Qin's humiliation and beating of Chen Erlang's family of three once again aroused Chen Erlang's rebellious psychology. He picked up his books and vowed to pass the exam this time.

God helps those who work hard. Chen Erlang finally passed the exam and became a student. He could receive a subsidy of fifty cents from the government office every month.

However, Chen Erlang had never seen this money, as it was all taken away by the old man Chen and his wife.

Chen Erlang still lived a life worse than pigs and dogs. By chance, he met Xu Mengru from the cloth shop, and a bold idea came to Chen Erlang's mind.

Marry into the Xu family as a son-in-law, so that you can leave this home completely!

In order to become a son-in-law, Li Xiuzhi and her daughter became stumbling blocks for Chen Erlang, so his attitude towards them became increasingly worse, and finally developed to the point where he would beat them severely if they were not satisfied.

However, he failed to become a son-in-law, but was beaten to death by the ruffians hired by Xu Mengru. In the end, this body was taken over by Chen Lang.
