Quick wear: cannon fodder is a bit strong

Sun Jiaojiao's "bad" attitude made Old Lady Sun very angry.

Now this granddaughter's money was lost, and her innocence was taken away for nothing. If it weren't for the protection of the Sun family, she would have been torn to pieces by jackals on the road of exile.

Now, I just casually told her something, but she actually dared to disobey and didn't even take her grandmother seriously at all.

Madam Sun could not help but snort coldly:

"In that case, let Qing take your sisters. Since Jiao is so tired, don't eat tonight. Going hungry will help cool down your temper."

Sun Qingqing didn't dare to talk back, she still had to rely on the Sun family to succeed.

So he had no choice but to drag his sisters along and go to look for food reluctantly. However, Sun Jiaojiao was older and had some life experience.

Sun Qingqing was still a little girl, how could she find anything to eat? She led her sisters around aimlessly, but maybe it was just luck.

In the small woods that had just rained, the sisters actually picked some wild mushrooms.

The mushrooms were of all shapes and sizes, and the Sun family couldn't tell which were edible and which were not. So they called in several families who had fled with them to help them identify the mushrooms and reluctantly picked out a few poisonous ones.

No one could say what the rest was, but the family was so hungry that they ended up throwing all the mushrooms into the pot to make soup.

The taste is very delicious.

Unfortunately, in the second half of the night, the whole family was vomiting and having diarrhea. If it weren't for an old Chinese doctor who was traveling with us who boiled some herbal medicine for us to drink, the whole family might have died here.

Sun Qingqing kept crying out of grievance.

Everyone in the Sun family blamed her, saying she almost ruined the whole family. But she didn't even know which mushrooms were edible and which weren't? She worked so hard, and yet she was the one being blamed?

So the next day, even though everyone in the family was starving, Sun Qingqing refused to take anyone out to find food.

The Sun family had no food to eat, so they naturally had no strength to walk. But the refugee group would not stop to wait for them.

Seeing the other families finish their breakfast and then gradually set off, the Sun family had no choice but to reluctantly keep up. However, they could only force themselves to walk a short distance before they could no longer walk.

Especially Madam Sun.

In the past, whenever the Sun family had something to eat, they would always give it to her first, so they managed to survive the entire journey.

But she hadn't eaten anything decent in the past few days, and she was old after all. She was so hungry that she felt dizzy and her vision went black before she collapsed to the ground.

"Madam, Madam!"

"Grandma, what's wrong with you? Wake up!"

The fainting of Old Lady Sun rekindled the Sun family's few remaining filial motives. Of course, it was also filled with a kind of fear that the other party would mourn for the loss of their loved one.

In the Sun family, if even someone like Old Madam Sun, who is at the top of the food chain, falls, will it be their turn next?

"Grandma, wuwuwu, grandma must have fainted from hunger!"

Sun Yaozu cried.

In just a few days, the fair and tender image of the male protagonist of "Small World" was gone. Sun Yaozu now looked like any other child fleeing famine: dark, thin, and slovenly dressed.

He no longer has the demeanor of a young male protagonist.

"That won't work,"

Sun Zhengzhi stroked his tattered beard and said to everyone in a deep voice, "The Sun family is now at a critical juncture of life and death. Someone must make a sacrifice in exchange for some food."

"Otherwise, no one in our family will survive."

"Sacrifice, what is sacrifice?"

Sun Miaomiao from the second house was still young, so she couldn't help but blurt out the question. Frightened, Madam Sun II covered her mouth tightly with her hands, her hair standing on end in shock.

"Amitabha, Amitabha, may the Bodhisattva bless you, no one will hear this child's nonsense."

Mrs. Sun Er prayed silently in her heart.

As expected, Sun Zhengzhi stared at Sun Miaomiao's tender little face with a strange look in his eyes for a long time. Mrs. Sun Er's legs became weak and her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

Sun Zhengzhi turned his gaze away, scanning the Sun family members one by one, and whispered:

"The Sun family is now out of ammunition and food. If we don't find a solution, we will all starve to death."

He glanced at everyone fiercely before continuing:

"We, the Sun family, are such a big family, we can't let this happen. If we want to survive, we need food. But now we don't have a single grain of food. All we have are people waiting to eat."

Sun Zhengzhi sighed:

"Don't blame me, an old man, for being cruel. The only way to ensure the continuation of our family is to exchange people for food, lives for lives! I won't say much else. You all know what's going on. Think about it carefully."

After saying this, he did not give everyone time to discuss and continued:

"On this journey of fleeing famine, the Sun family cannot fall behind, otherwise it would be like sending the whole family to their deaths and being served as food."

"So, from now on, those who can walk will continue to walk, and those who can't will just leave it to fate!"

As expected of someone who had served as the Minister of Revenue, Sun Zhengzhi's words were filled with a sense of determination and ruthlessness. After saying this, he slammed the wooden stick in his hand:

"It's from the old family. Carry Yaozu on your back. If you really can't carry him, you can drag him along."

"Yes, father-in-law~"

Madam Sun was frightened by Sun Zhengzhi's aura and did not dare to refute him. She didn't know where she got the strength from, but she actually carried Sun Yaozu on her back again.

But the person couldn't stand steadily and his body was shaking.

Sun Zhengzhi ignored her and continued to order, "Old Third's family, wake up your mother and help her walk!"

"Yes, father-in-law!"

Mrs. Sun was very reluctant - Mrs. Sun was not her real mother-in-law, so why should she serve her? But at this time, she also did not dare to refute the head of the family, Sun Zhengzhi.

I’m afraid someone will say: Otherwise, you’ll just stay and die.

In this way, the group set out again, and after walking for a long time, they actually caught up with the previous group. However, everyone's heart had changed.

"If you want to survive, you need food."

"To keep our family alive, we must trade people for food, and lives for lives."

Sun Zhengzhi's words were on everyone's mind, but no one dared to think about the meaning behind them, especially the elders of the Sun family.

In the past, when I was living in a wealthy family, I would occasionally listen to the servants talk about interesting folk stories. I had also heard that during years of famine, the people were extremely hungry, and some sold their children, and even exchanged their own children for food.

At the time, they just thought it was normal and never thought there was anything wrong with it. After all, if they didn't sell their children, where would all the servants around them come from?

If there were no servants to serve you, your peaceful life would be disrupted.

But once the same thing could happen to you, you will feel the indescribable fear and confusion.

Moreover, they also knew that every family was short of food these days. If they sold their children, they would most likely not become slaves or maids, but...

No, no, no, they didn't dare to think about that possibility.
