The child's hands were small, and Ji Shiliang was unguarded around his mother, so the steamed bun accidentally fell to the ground and a lot of mud fell on it.

Ji Shiliang froze on the spot, seemingly confused.

After reacting, he was about to pick it up, but there was a figure who was faster than him.

I saw Wu Zhaodi grabbing the very small piece of steamed bun from the ground with lightning speed, not bothering at all about the mud on it.

Because he grabbed it too fast, he even grabbed a little bit of sand and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

After stuffing it in, he swallowed it in a few mouthfuls, with an aftertaste expression on his face.

The food is still delicious and can fill her stomach. After her husband died, she couldn't get food, so she peeled off the bark of trees and ate it every day. She hadn't tasted the taste of food for a long time.

Even the steamed buns with wild vegetables have become an unparalleled delicacy in her eyes.

After eating, she opened her eyes.

She found that Ye Qiuyun and Ji Shiliang were looking at her dumbfounded, but they were not embarrassed at all. Tears immediately appeared in their eyes:

"Sister Qiuyun, I've been eating tree bark for a month and I really can't stand it any longer. No, I saw my eldest nephew's things dropped on the ground and didn't want them anymore, so I picked them up and ate them."

As he said that, he looked at Ye Qiuyun uneasily, "Sister, you don't mind, do you?"

Why didn't Ye Qiuyun mind? She was speechless for this woman.

They were all fleeing the famine in this era. Not to mention the mud-covered vegetable buns, there were also many people eating tree bark, mud, and more.

No one's food was blown by strong winds. A child accidentally dropped it on the ground and was about to pick it up, but you ate it. Who are you?

Ji Miaomiao also stared with a pair of big watery eyes.

Although she feels that eating too much vegetable buns is not good for the body, it is still edible.

Although she comes from modern times, her time had experienced famine before.

This is simply called a shameless robbery.

Fortunately, Ji Miaomiao discovered that her mother was not a soft persimmon to be pinched. She didn't say anything more at the moment, just hugged the child and headed towards Mrs. Ji.

Ye Qiuyun's original intention was to shock the woman, but Ji Shiliang obviously misunderstood.

As soon as he passed by, he hummed and clung to Mrs. Ji. Mrs. Ji still felt very sorry for her grandson.

Then he smiled and asked him what was wrong.

Ji Shiliang is a four-year-old boy, and with his experience in fleeing from famine, his language skills are very strong, and Mrs. Ji can understand what he means in just a few strokes.

Mrs. Ji jumped in immediately!

Who is Mrs. Ji? A rural woman who was widowed at a young age and raised three sons, but also managed her family well! How could she be such an easy person to get along with!

In the past, she would chase anyone who dared to bully her family for five miles with a rolling pin!

She has always been the only one who takes advantage of others, no one else takes advantage of her!

Now, a crazy woman came from nowhere and stole a piece of her grandson's vegetable bun for free. She immediately jumped up from the ground.

"Where did this crazy woman come from? She has no food to eat, so she robs my grandson of steamed buns to eat. Why, are you going to work as a cow or a horse for my grandson in the future?"

Mrs. Ji spoke mercilessly, "I don't know what kind of family can raise such a shameless girl. I have lived for most of my life and I have never seen this old woman before!"

Mrs. Ji has lived for most of her life, and she has cursed out as many unpleasant things as she has accumulated in her mind.

The woman's face turned red after being scolded, she hugged the child and shrank away from them, and then she managed to breathe out.

When Ye Qiuyun saw that his son had made a mistake, he didn't blame him, but felt relieved.

She has a tough temper, but she can't be shameless. For her to curse like this, her skills are really not enough.

Now that her mother-in-law came forward to help her scold Wu Zhaodi, who had an unknown background, she felt much relieved.

That woman probably won't come again now, Ye Qiuyun thought.

It turns out that not everyone is normal.

This Wu Zhaodi was severely scolded by Mrs. Ji. When Mrs. Ji was next to Ye Qiuyun, she would never come over.

But as soon as Mrs. Ji had something to do and left, she shamelessly came forward again.

Knowing that it's useless to talk about herself, she started talking about her children.

"Sister, look at my eldest daughter, she is already half a year old and not even as big as your baby. She really doesn't want much food. If she is gone, what will the baby do??"

As Wu Zhaodi spoke, she opened the package in her hand. Inside was a skinny baby girl with her eyes closed, not cute at all.

The eyebrows and eyes look very similar to Wu Zhaodi's, and she is indeed her daughter.

Ye Qiuyun is also a mother. When she thinks about it carefully, if her little girl is starved to this point, her heart will ache.

Thinking of this, Ye Qiuyun lowered his eyes and looked at the girl in his arms. Seeing her fair eyes and smart eyes, he felt relieved.

Fortunately, my daughter is blessed with good fortune and is valued by her husband and mother-in-law.

Ji Miaomiao looked at Ye Qiuyun and wondered if her mother would be soft-hearted, right?

After all, the other party mentioned the child. As a mother, it is actually easy to be soft-hearted.

But Ji Miaomiao knew very well in her heart that this Wu Zhaodi was not a simple person, and even after being scolded like that, she still eagerly came up to her, which showed how deep her scheming was.

If he sets a precedent and helps her once, I'm afraid she will continue to follow the Ji family for help in the future.

Why bother to provoke this god of plague for no reason?

I'm afraid that there will be no peace in the house.

"Your eldest daughter is so thin because you, the mother-in-law, didn't feed her well. Why are you coming to my house?"

"Why are you comparing yourself to my little girl Miao? How come your eldest daughter has a mother like you?"

Mrs. Ji's sad voice sounded from behind.

Wu Zhaodi's expression, which had been so emotional just now, suddenly froze, and she almost jumped up reflexively.

It was also difficult for her to be so flexible even though she was holding a child in her arms. She barely glanced back and ran away in a few steps.

Ji Miaomiao and Ye Qiuyun were both stunned.

Mrs. Ji snorted coldly from behind, staring at Wu Zhaodi with eyes full of dissatisfaction and coldness.

Ye Qiuyun came back to his senses and apologized a little for being too soft-tempered and allowing Wu Zhaodi to take advantage of every opportunity.

But Mrs. Ji has always known her daughter-in-law's temperament.

She was very satisfied with this daughter-in-law who gave birth to a little fairy and had a rich dowry and a sweet mouth.

So he just said:

"Third daughter-in-law, this Wu Zhaodi is shameless. If she comes to pester you again next time, just call me."

She said this very loudly, ensuring that Wu Zhaodi over there could hear it.

"There's no need to waste words with this kind of person, just beat them away."

If it was before fleeing famine, any family with surplus food might be willing to help.

But now we are fleeing famine. Food is life. Who has so many lives to give to outsiders?

My family doesn’t have enough to eat! There are so many adults and children in their family!
