A massive famine! The whole family travels through time together, and with their spatial abilities,

Chapter 64 Depriving Su Chang'an of food and punishing Li Jiao'e

Su Yunhai was annoyed by his wife's inexplicable glare and kicked Su Chang'an in the butt.

Su Chang'an rolled down the hillside for quite a distance before stopping.

He coldly shouted down the slope, "If your wife dares to ruin my daughter's reputation again, I'll beat you up!"

"Don't you have any idea whose food and drink you're eating or drinking?! And you dare to gossip like this here!"

“If you really don’t want to stay in this house, then get out and start your own household! Don’t think that just because you’re a man I’ll take you for granted!”

After saying that, he didn't care whether Su Chang'an would get hurt and drove away with the mule cart.

Shen Shuli arrived just in time to witness this scene, and she was quite satisfied with her father.

"Dad, you should go back and eat something and get some rest. I can take care of these." Shen Shuli was clearly in a good mood.

With her parents unconditionally on her side, she felt that even if the whole world were against her, she would not feel wronged.

Anyway, she doesn't care about anyone else.

"No need, you're tired too, Dad can do it himself." Su Yunhai felt very considerate.

Shen Shuli was a stubborn person, and Su Yunhai couldn't persuade her otherwise, so he had no choice but to go back first. Before leaving, he gave Su Ding'an a meaningful look.

Su Ding'an, trembling with fear: "..."

Su Ding'an immediately understood the meaning behind his father's eyes.

He immediately pulled the mule cart towards the resting place, dropping off one mule and rushing back to pull the next, fearing that he and his elder brother would suffer the same fate.

Shen Shuli took stock of the supplies in the car.

One cart contained over 700 jin of grain, another cart contained over 800 jin of various cured meats, and a cart contained water and miscellaneous odds and ends, but there was no vegetables or anything like that.

Shen Shuli has been eating porridge and various kinds of dried meat every day for the past few days, and her stomach is starting to protest.

Fortunately, I drink some spiritual spring water every day, otherwise reincarnation would be a difficult problem.

Taking out pots and pans, Shen Shuli prepared to cook some porridge for her parents, otherwise their stomachs would feel uncomfortable eating only roasted rabbit meat.

Su Ding'an returned to the fire and saw that only a dirty roasted rabbit remained. He looked at Shen Shuli with a resentful gaze, silently accusing her.

Shen Shuli looked at him and explained, "Don't look at me. This was originally saved for you, but someone stole your things and dropped it on the ground. Whether you eat it or not is up to you."

Su Ding'an never expected it to be like this.

He had overheard his sister-in-law's commotion, but he never expected that she was the one who had soiled his food.

That's rabbit meat!

He's been eating dried meat and cured meat every day for the past few days, and he can hardly eat anymore.

It's not easy to find other wild game, and it smells so good, it must taste even better!

It got dirty!

Should he eat it or not?

He turned around and glared fiercely at his elder brother and sister-in-law, who had already climbed up, feeling nothing but bad luck.

You deserve to be beaten by your parents!

"Mom, can I have some water? My sister-in-law made it so messy that I can't eat it. I need to wash it. My sister specially saved it for me, so I can't waste it."

Su Ding'an spoke sweet words to Shen Yuehua.

Seeing that the third brother was sensible, Shen Yuehua rewarded him with a bowl of water.

After happily cleaning it, Su Ding'an couldn't wait to start eating.

Su Chang'an saw that the last roasted rabbit had been monopolized by the third brother, leaving none for himself.

He was so angry!

"Third brother, that rabbit is half mine, why are you biting it like that!" Su Chang'an looked at his third brother with dissatisfaction.

Su Ding'an wasn't going to let that go, and said smugly, "My sister just said that this one is all mine, but she didn't say there was any for you. Am I right, sister?"

Shen Shuli simply nodded without saying a word.

Su Ding'an raised an eyebrow at Su Chang'an with a smug look on his face, feeling quite pleased with himself.

Su Chang'an was even angrier.

He glanced timidly at Su Yunhai, wanting to reason with his father, but having just been kicked by his father, he was a little cowardly and turned to look at his mother.

"Mother, you can't be so biased and leave nothing for your son!"

"Our son helped with so many chores around the house today, you can't let him go hungry!"

"My wife and son haven't eaten either."

Shen Yuehua's answer was simple and straightforward: "Do you have wild rabbit meat at home? How come I didn't know? Have you seen it? Or did you hunt it?"

Su Chang'an was speechless.

"She attacked our family members, so why shouldn't our branch of the family get any food!"

"You two have such foul mouths, what, you're not happy with my daughter, you even insulted her, and you still want to eat my daughter's food?"

"You may not have any other skills, but you've learned the habit of eating from a bowl and then cursing your mother quite quickly."

"Su Chang'an, you're supposed to be a scholar, a xiucai (a successful candidate in the imperial examinations), don't you understand such a simple principle?"

Shen Yuehua's gaze toward Su Chang'an grew increasingly cold.

Su Chang'an was rendered speechless by what she said and could only look at Shen Yuehua in silence.

After a long pause, he finally said, "Then I can at least cook some porridge for myself, right?"

Shen Yuehua glanced at Shen Shuli, who directly refused, "From now on, you'll have to take care of your own food and drink. If you dare to slander or insult me, you'll have to bear the consequences. Besides, it's already a year of famine, and we're short of food and drink at home. We don't support idlers."

Su Chang'an, feeling stifled, couldn't help but retort, "I'm not a freeloader! I do chores for my family!"

"Heh." Shen Shuli was too lazy to say anything more to him and treated him coldly.

Once the porridge was cooked, Shen Shuli distributed it to everyone except Su Chang'an and his family of three, leaving none behind.

Grandma Shen had originally intended to talk to her daughter and son-in-law, urging them to keep their mouths shut.

I didn't expect them to be so helpful. They taught me a lesson without me even having to say anything. I felt instantly relieved and went back without bothering them.

Shen Yuehua still cares about her grandson and fed him half a bowl of porridge.

Zhang Lanhua immediately told Shen Yuehua that she had fed the child a lot of rabbit meat.

Shen Yuehua was fairly satisfied with her second daughter-in-law, and her complexion improved considerably.

Li Jiao'e never expected that neither her parents would stand up for her.

Not only did they not give her food, but her husband also went hungry.

Her resentment deepened, and seeing that her son had eaten his fill, she tried to pull him into the carriage to rest.

Shen Shuli immediately stopped him, her meaning quite clear.

They wouldn't let her sleep in the car.

Li Jiao'e's anger, which she had managed to suppress, immediately flared up again.

"Are you crazy?! Why can't I sleep in the car?! I've been sleeping in the car for the past few days!"

"Yeah, so it's my mom's and my turn to sleep here. What, is this car yours? Why are you keeping it all to yourself?"

"Even if you don't like me, your sister-in-law, you should at least let your mother-in-law sleep in the train carriage. How can you be so vicious and selfish, doing no work and only thinking about enjoying yourself!"

The train carriages were originally intended for women and children in the family to take turns resting.

For the past few days, Li Jiao'e has been resting in the car with the child and Zhang Lanfang.

Shen Shuli and Shen Yuehua slept on the floor outside.

They never offered to switch places for rest; they would simply go to sleep in the carriage when it was time to sleep.

Shen Shuli was determined to make Li Jiao'e unhappy today.

"You, you, you, you!" Li Jiao'e was so angry she couldn't refute.

She can't say anything that would be disrespectful to her mother-in-law, can she?
