Traveling Through Farmhouses: Taking the Baby on a Famine Escape

Chapter 29 Good intentions were misunderstood

Zhang Xixi looked at her remaining luck value and thought, "This is really a stroke of good luck!"

"Host, it's time to think about how to complete the mission!"

"I don't want to think about anything right now, I just want to pass out for a few days," Zhang Xixi said irritably.

Wait a minute, I completely forgot to check in for the wolves! Zhang Xixi sat up instantly, wide awake. "System, system, does wolf meat count?"

"Host, the meat has already been broken down, and some of it is almost cooked! How can we calculate this?!" Zhang Xixi collapsed again, clutching her stomach and yelling, "Why does it hurt more and more!"

"Everything you've eaten before counts!"

System: That's different.

"Fine, I'm too lazy to argue with you. Just give me three health pills!"

Zhang Xixi took the medicine and then drifted off to sleep. When she woke up, it was already noon, and her stomach pain had subsided.

Stepping outside, I smelled the aroma of wolf meat throughout the encampment. I was so hungry!

"Daughter, are you feeling better?" Just as Chen was about to call her daughter to come eat, she saw that Zhang Xixi had already come out of the tent.

"Much better, Mother!"

"That's good, come and eat!"

Zhang Xixi walked over, and everyone else was already sitting on the rocks. She looked at Zhang Dacheng.

"Dad, is your leg feeling any better?"

"It doesn't hurt much anymore, your water is quite effective."

Zhang Xixi exclaimed happily, "Really? That's wonderful! Dad, you can drink the rest too!"

After Zhang Dacheng nodded, Zhang Xixi looked at Zhou Shi and noticed that her complexion was not good. "Second sister-in-law, were you frightened? Are you alright?"

Zhou said indifferently, "It's nothing."

Zhang Wenhong was about to say something to Zhou when he received a look from Chen and shut up, only touching Zhou with his hand.

Zhang Xixi looked at the scene and looked at Chen Shi in confusion. Did her second brother and the others have a fight?

Madam Chen shook her head. "Daughter, eat more."

Okay, having received her mother's signal, Zhang Xixi decided to stop interfering and focus on taking care of her two precious children!

Zhang Xixi put a piece of meat on Da Bao's and Er Bao's plates, saying, "Da Bao, Er Bao, eat more!"

"Mom, you should eat more too."

The more Zhou thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. This sister-in-law was so biased. She never thought of her, the second sister-in-law, when there was something good. Seeing the three of them eating meat so happily made her angry, so she snorted loudly.

Zhang Xixi thought to herself, "This is targeting me. I haven't offended this second sister-in-law, have I?"

"I'll bear with it because she's pregnant," Zhang Xixi told herself repeatedly.

Chen couldn't stand it. She thought that ever since Zhou had a miscarriage, her mother had been taking good care of her and the family had been indulging her. Now, she was giving her daughter a hard time just for a meal. She was really spoiled!

Chen stood up angrily and said, "Zhou, if you don't want to eat, then don't eat!"

Mrs. Zhou, rubbing her belly, said, "That won't do. If I don't eat, your precious grandson will. Besides, this is my house, why can't I eat? Some people bring their families to eat here, and I haven't said anything!"

Duanmu Yun blushed at the words and tried to stand up, but Zhang Xixi held her down, signaling them to be quiet.

Zhang Wenhong also stood up angrily, raised his hand and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? That's my own sister. What's wrong with having a meal together?"

"What, you want to hit me now!"

Zhou brought her belly close to Zhang Wenhong's face and said angrily, "Go ahead and hit me, hit me here."

Zhang Xixi quickly stopped Zhang Wenhong and said coldly, "Second sister-in-law, I don't think I've offended you!"

Zhou rolled her eyes at Zhang Xixi: "She didn't offend me, but she just can't stand to see us doing well."

Zhang Xixi sneered, "What do I have to do with you being happy?"

Zhou continued shamelessly, "Isn't that right? Last time, you only gave that magical fruit to my sister-in-law and the others, not to me and Yuhan. You even said that pregnant women and children couldn't eat it. And this time, your family got three wolf pelts. Our family has a lot of people, so what's wrong with letting you share one with us?"

Zhang Xixi laughed in anger. So that's how it is. She tried to take advantage but failed, and now she's blaming others. Her good intentions have been completely wasted.

Zhang Xixi didn't explain further, simply saying, "It's my own thing, I can give it to whomever I want, and nobody can stop me. If you want it, go find it yourself, stop with the sarcastic remarks."

Upon hearing this, Zhou immediately became furious and exclaimed, "Look at this! This is your good sister! She doesn't respect me, her sister-in-law, at all!"

Zhang Xixi retorted, "You're such a big person, I wouldn't dare put you in my eyes, I'm afraid you'd squeeze my eyes out."

Zhang Zehui and Zhang Zelin, who were standing nearby, burst out laughing when they heard this, but immediately covered their mouths when they saw Zhang Wenbo's warning look.

Zhou was so angry she couldn't speak, "You, you,..."

Zhang Xixi continued to retort, "What? You're choking on meat? So much delicious food can't shut you up."

Seeing that she couldn't win the argument with Zhang Xixi, Zhou sought help, saying, "Zhang Wenhong, you just let your sister bully me like this."

Zhang Wenhong said seriously, "You brought this on yourself."

Zhou looked at the Zhang family members, but no one stood up for her. "Fine, you're all so kind," she said angrily before walking out.

Chen hurriedly said, "Second son, hurry up and follow her, don't let her fall."

Zhang Wenhong hesitated for a moment, "Mother, what could possibly happen in broad daylight? Let Zhou reflect on her actions!"

Mrs. Chen said angrily, "I told you to go, so you go! You don't listen to your old mother anymore!"

Zhang Wenhong put down his chopsticks and immediately followed.

“I’ve spoiled Zhou a bit these days, she’s gotten a little arrogant. Daughter, don’t take it to heart,” Chen comforted Zhang Xixi.

Zhang Dacheng also said, "Daughter, don't listen to Zhou's nonsense. I'll let you come whenever you want, and see who dares to say anything." After saying that, he glanced at Zhang Wenbo and Xiao Chenshi.

Zhang Wenbo and Madam Chen quickly said, "Little sister, it's fine for you to come back every day. Your brother and I would welcome you with open arms."

"Am I such a petty person? Don't worry, I won't take it to heart," Zhang Xixi said with a smile.

Mrs. Chen smiled and praised, "My daughter is so generous."

Zhang Xixi touched her nose, feeling a little embarrassed by the praise.

Zhang Dacheng looked at Zhou Yujie and Duanmu Yun and said, "Young Jie, young Yun, don't take it to heart. What Zhou said was all nonsense. Your uncle welcomes you to come often."

“Uncle, it’s alright!” Zhou Yujie and Duanmu Yun both replied.

"Alright, let's eat! Let's forget about them!" Mrs. Chen urged everyone to continue eating.

Zhang Xixi and the others continued eating. It was so great to be able to eat meat and rice in big bites!
