Chapter 80 What about the others?
The second brother's second and third uncles took the water. They were so thirsty that they could hardly stand it anymore. Without any hesitation, they tilted their heads back and each drank several mouthfuls.
They hadn't drunk such clean and sweet water in a long time, and in that instant, they felt as if they had come back to life, and their whole bodies felt much more comfortable.
"Here's some more. Have some to fill your stomachs. I'll arrange for someone to cook some porridge for you now."
Yu Wanwan took out a few meat buns.
These meat buns were made by the imperial chefs of the manor. She packed a lot of them into her spatial storage before she left, and they are still steaming hot, just like when they came out of the steamer.
People who haven't eaten for a long time should avoid overeating.
The old man is still dizzy and can't eat.
She counted the heads and took out seven steamed buns in total.
It was handed over to a few members of the Mo family.
The adults, not to mention, were so excited that their hands were trembling as they held the steamed buns, their faces filled with disbelief.
The children held the steamed buns and couldn't take their eyes off them, not even daring to blink.
"Brother, is this really a steamed bun? Am I dreaming? How can there still be steamed buns now? And this steamed bun is made with white flour."
"Second brother, you don't seem to be dreaming. These buns are hot to the touch. I can feel my hands getting hot. These are real buns."
"Brother, sister, is this a steamed bun? It smells so good, can I eat it?"
The youngest girl among the four children could no longer hold back.
The aroma of flour, oil, and meat was so enticing that she wanted to devour the whole bun in one gulp.
She held the bun with both hands reverently, opened her mouth wide, and took a big bite.
Once I took a bite, I couldn't resist anymore, and I kept eating until I finished the last bite.
She licked the last bit of flavor off her hand, still savoring it.
When she had licked her hands until there was nothing left to lick, she looked up at the buns in her older siblings' hands and stuck out her tongue to lick them.
The older sister next to her, feeling her gaze, broke her bun in half and handed one half to her, saying, "Let's each have half."
The little girl shook her head like a rattle drum.
"No, the buns are delicious. Sister, you can eat them yourself. I've already eaten."
Seeing that she was craving food, the others wanted to share their buns with her.
She refused them all: "The steamed buns are super delicious, everyone eats them, and if you eat a whole one, you won't be hungry anymore."
After she finished speaking, as if afraid that everyone would force her to eat more steamed buns, she covered her mouth tightly.
It can only make "hmm hmm hmm" sounds.
After looking at the system points they had just earned from drinking water, and seeing them passing the same steamed bun back and forth, Yu Wanwan said, "Eat up, we brought a lot of steamed buns with us when we came out of the General's Mansion."
Fearing they wouldn't believe her, Yu Wanwan turned her back and took out a dozen more steamed buns, which she then distributed to the eldest brother and the others.
Everyone has been on the bus for so long. Although we ate some snacks on the way, snacks don't keep us full, so we must be hungry now.
The Mo family members were all focused on the steamed buns.
They were so hungry that they didn't have the energy to think about how Yu Wanwan could suddenly pull out so many steaming hot buns from behind her.
All they knew was that Yu Wanwan did indeed have a lot of steamed buns in her hands.
Only then did I feel safe enough to bite into the bun in my hand.
After swallowing a steamed bun, Madam Mo choked up.
"It's too hard, really too hard, really too hard, so hard..."
She could only repeat the same sentence.
too difficult.
These past few years have been incredibly tough.
She thought her whole family was going to starve to death, but now they're eating such delicious meat buns.
The other members of the Mo family also cried.
Crying without tears.
After a long while, they finished eating the steamed buns and stopped crying. Heping and the others also finished cooking porridge and brought over a pot of porridge and several plates of pickled vegetables.
It was placed on the stone table in the center of the courtyard.
The smell inside was too strong, so the Mo family didn't feel comfortable inviting Yu Wanwan and the others inside.
Grandpa Mo has also woken up.
After waking up, he drank some water and ate some steamed bun wrappers, which helped him recover a little.
It allows someone to help them sit down in a chair.
"God bless, God bless."
Upon hearing the second son explain how Yu Wanwan had improved and how she had gained food, the old lady was so moved that she kowtowed to the heavens several times.
Then he kowtowed several times to Yu Wanwan: "Thank you, Goddess, thank you, General's wife, thank you, thank you..."
"Please rise, Madam."
Yu Wanwan quickly helped the old lady up, as she was genuinely worried that the old lady might accidentally knock herself over while kowtowing.
The second son scooped up a bowl of porridge and personally fed it to Grandpa Mo, also adding some pickled vegetables.
"Grandfather, where are my eldest uncle and his aunts?"
They only saw these eight people when they came in, and no one else appeared.
"Don't I have a younger cousin, or maybe a younger cousin? I remember seeing my aunt three years ago when she was only recently pregnant. Why haven't I seen him today?"
When the second son brought up the topic, the Mo family members, who had just become excited because they had food and saw hope for survival, all turned somber except for the youngest girl.
The old man sighed.
“Your eldest uncle starved to death a year ago. Your three aunts also starved to death one year ago, six months ago, and three months ago, respectively. Your youngest cousin was born during a drought; there wasn't enough food, and no breast milk. He only lived for two months…”
All the members of the Mo family lowered their heads.
The second child never expected the answer to be like this.
A drought resulted in the deaths of five people in my maternal grandparents' family.
Yu Wanwan never imagined that the drought would have such a huge impact on a family.
Five people in one family starved to death.
“Grandfather, it’s my fault. If I had come to see you sooner and brought you food sooner, my uncle and the others wouldn’t have had this accident.”
The second child, who used to eat porridge while being fed, can no longer eat even that.
Grandpa Mo patted his second son's head and said with affection, "It's not your fault. I'm very pleased that you have this intention."
"These are all your uncles' lives, all their lives."
The old lady choked up again: "My poor son and daughter-in-law, if only you could have lived a little longer, if only you could have held on until now."
And my poor little Guang…”
The topic suddenly became heavy.
Yu Wanwan didn't know how to comfort them, so she simply brought out more food to cheer them up.
She gave the children extra chocolate lollipops.
They also brought out strawberries, cherries, and blueberries.
Eating more delicious food might improve your mood.
Chang'an suddenly rushed in from outside the courtyard and said, "Master Mo, there are several people knocking on the door outside. They say they want to see you..."
