"Dad, don't worry about it. I'll kill these little bastards first."

There was a shadow lurking outside the courtyard gate. Lin took a look, and Feng huddled outside the door and peeked in.

Old Man Cui had already given the order not to let Feng in.

Mrs. Feng must have been so hungry that she even had a pointed chin.

Old Man Cui said with a dark face: "You still have the nerve to lecture the child? You don't even care about your own father. Your eldest brother went out for a while and still missed me and your mother. But you come here to make trouble as soon as you get home."

When Cui Laoer saw the pearl rice in Cui Laohan's arms, his eyes lit up instantly.

"Dad, give me this pearl rice. Tomorrow I'll go to town and buy two kilograms of grain. I'll exchange it for two kilograms of fine grain!"

He also brought back two, but Feng loved them so much that two were not enough.

But this thing can't be bought.

Feng is pregnant with Cui's baby. After all, they are all family members, so the father should not be stingy.

"Don't even think about it."

"no!"

"Second brother, this is what I gave to my parents..."

The three of them refused in unison.

Old Man Cui spoke decisively, Cui Chengliang was even more reluctant, and Boss Cui simply felt it was inappropriate.

Old Lady Cui pinched Old Man Cui's ear and said, "Do you know how much two kilograms of fine grains cost? You're such a spendthrift. You spend all the money you earn."

"Ouch, Mom, it hurts!" Cui Laoer jumped up and down in pain. "My mother is pregnant with the Cui family's eldest grandson. I can't let him get pregnant."

"Bah, I have a great grandson, I don't need that piece of meat."

Dalang scratched his head, as if talking about him.

There were a lot of people watching the fun gathered at the door.

Feng was pointed at and talked about by passers-by, so she gritted her teeth and slipped into the yard, huddling herself against the wall.

She had been having a really hard time these days. The three pounds of food Erlang gave her when he stole the quilt last time was eaten up in two days. She hadn't had any solid food for several days.

Feng secretly looked at Erlang and the others. Their hair looked shiny and not dull at all. They must have eaten a lot of good food in the old house.

Maybe there's still a lot of food left.

Thinking of food, Feng's stomach rumbled.

No matter what, I have to get these kids to bring out a few more pounds of food.

A passing villager shouted, "Brother Cui, kill the locusts first. Nothing is more important than growing crops."

Old Man Cui shouted, "Hey, I'm coming!"

Old Man Cui glared at Old Man Cui: "Let's talk about it tomorrow if you have anything to say. Don't stand here and go back to your own home."

If we delay any longer, all the crops in the fields will be eaten by locusts.

After saying this, Old Man Cui walked out and the children immediately followed him.

Cui Lao Er stopped Er Lang and said, "Come back with me."

Old Man Cui turned his head and said, "You don't even have a piece of land. Why should I go back with you? Go dig up tree roots in the mountains?"

The three acres of land of the second house had long been taken away by Feng to exchange for grain, and Cui Laoer, who had just returned home, obviously didn't know about this.

Cui Lao Er asked in bewilderment, "Why is there no land?"

Old Mrs. Cui pointed at the base of the wall and said, "Tell me what you did."

Everyone turned their heads to look at the corner. Xiaoliu came up to Feng with an oil lamp, and the guilty expression on his face was clearly illuminated.

Feng said embarrassedly: "Look at me, what are you doing? I can't do anything. There is no food at home, how can you let people starve to death?"

Besides, who knew that Lin could actually find a water source.

Cui Laoer helped Feng up with a distressed look on his face. "You've suffered so much at home. How much grain did you pay for it? I'll go and redeem the land tomorrow."

"Just...just 200 kilograms."

Old Mrs. Cui curled her lips in disgust.

She ate up all 200 kilograms of food by herself. If this is suffering, then the others should not live.
