Chapter 601 Poor An An

But she couldn't go back. She didn't have anything to eat on the first day she came here. She didn't even drink the soup when they stewed meat at home.

The person she called mother said that the house was small and she could only live in a woodshed. There was not enough food at home. She was so shiny and fat that she should eat less.

She didn't dare to refute, she was afraid of being beaten.

At this moment, she looked at the broken door and wanted to escape, but immediately gave up the idea.

When she followed her father up the mountain to cut firewood during the day, she had already looked around. This place was surrounded by mountains. There was only one way to leave this place. That road was surrounded by towering mountains on both sides. Wild animals would appear at any time. Going out at night would be the same.

Yu sent himself into the mouth of the beast.

It seems that she can only find opportunities to escape during the day, and tonight, she can only stay in this woodshed.

‘Squeak!’

At this moment, there was a sound of the door opening, and An An's expression suddenly became tense. She curled up and looked at the door through the moonlight.

"Girl..."

It was grandma's voice. She quickly got up and came to grandma's side.

"Grandma, why haven't you gone to bed yet?"

Grandma took out a steamed bun from her pocket and handed it to her,

"Eat this steamed bun, you can't do it without eating."

"grandmother……"

An An was suddenly a little touched. This white flour steamed bun is a rare thing here. During today's meal, she heard her grandma say that she hadn't eaten white flour steamed bun in several years and she wanted to hide one to eat at night.

I didn't expect that she hid it for herself.

An An looked at her gratefully and shook her head vigorously,

"Grandma, please keep it to eat. I'm not hungry."

"Silly girl, you haven't eaten for a day, how can you not be hungry? Eat quickly!"

As she spoke, grandma put the steamed buns into her hand and asked her softly:

"Girl, do you really not remember who you are?"

An An pursed her lips and looked up at her grandma with wide eyes.

"My name is Ni Xiaohong."

Grandma's eyes turned red instantly. She touched An An's head, sighed, and murmured to herself,

"What a sin!"

After leaving these words, she sighed again, turned around, opened the door, and left here.

An An looked at the steamed bun in his hand, returned to the position where he had just sat, and started eating hungrily.

It's not that she's not hungry, she just can't bear to eat the steamed buns left by her grandma. She is also very grateful for the steamed buns sent by her grandma, which makes her feel a little bit of warmth in this strange place.

Early the next morning, before An An could get up, Daya shouted and started,

"Xiao Hong, get up quickly and light the fire. I have to go out today and have to eat early."

An An opened her sleepy eyes, raised her hands and rubbed them, and Da Ya kicked her with her foot.

"Hurry up, the sun is already beating down on your butt, why are you still sleeping? You were reincarnated by a ghost sleeping on death bed."

Although Da Ya's words were unpleasant, An An did not dare to refute. She knew that she was weak and could not offend these strangers.

She hurriedly picked up the firewood and put it into the stove pit in front of her.

But she had never done this kind of work before, and she spent a long time trying but failed to ignite the firewood, which made Daya very dissatisfied.

She pushed An An out, cursed, and lay down on the stove to light the fire.

"What a freeloader. Do you think you are a rich lady? I can't even light a fire. I'm going out today and will be back in three days. During these three days, you can light a fire and cook at home. If your brother and sister are hungry,

I want you to look good."

An An kneaded her hands together and bit her lip with her teeth.

At this time, she hated Leng Xi, her so-called fifth uncle.

Why is he so cruel? He wants to abandon himself to such a mean family?

When she has the opportunity to return to the capital, she will definitely settle the score with him. Even if she is young now, she will settle the score with him when she grows up.

"What are you looking at? Go get some firewood..."

Da Ya's scolding broke An An's thoughts. She hurriedly stepped towards the firewood pile with her short legs, picked up some firewood, and walked towards the firewood shed.

"What a waste. What are you doing with these few sticks of firewood? Go get it again."

Da Ya's cursing continued until the food was served. An An stood at the door of the woodshed, looking at the food on the table, not daring to step forward.

The man raised his hand to greet her,

"Xiao Hong, come over and eat."

Da Ya quickly picked up the chopsticks and knocked them off his hands.

"She's not hungry. You should eat quickly. You have to go out after eating."

Grandma's face darkened, and she murmured dissatisfiedly:

"You also have children, don't do evil."

As she spoke, she picked up an empty bowl, filled some food with it, brought it to An An, and said softly:

"Girl, eat it!"

An An looked at her grandma gratefully, timidly took the bowl, sat at the door of the woodshed, and started eating in small bites.

Although Da Ya was dissatisfied, she said nothing more and said to grandma:

"We will go to the city in a while. You can keep an eye on this girl at home and don't let her get lost? Otherwise we won't be able to do business."

"What are you doing in the city again?"

The old lady's voice became sharp, and Da Ya said with a smile as if she was busy trying to please:

"Well, isn't my eldest aunt's grandson always sick? I'm going to buy something for her."

"Where did you get the money?"

"You don't have to worry about it. Just take care of your home."

"snort!"

Grandma snorted coldly, "You have been running outside all day long, and you have almost wiped out the little food that your sister-in-law has at home. You are also running to other people's homes. Can you be more careful? It's not easy for them either."

Seeing that his mother had misunderstood him, Daya hurriedly explained:

"Mom, this time is different. We are not going to borrow rice or noodles. We really want to buy some food for the child this time. As you know, my sister-in-law is not in good health and the child has a fatal disease.

, She has helped us a lot in the past, and we discussed it yesterday. If we can't help with anything else, we will buy some food for the child and send it to him."

Hearing this, the man sitting next to her suddenly rolled his eyes and asked loudly:

"Didn't you say you would give them some money to treat their children? Why did you only give them some food? Why don't you keep your word?"

"What are you yelling about?"

Da Ya rolled her eyes at the man,

"I'm showing mercy by giving them some food, and I also give them some money. Do you think that the money was blown by the wind? Why doesn't this family need money?"

"You can't keep your word? If I had known this, I wouldn't have agreed to what happened yesterday even if I were beaten to death. Since you regret it, I also regret it. I will go find that person now..."

Seeing that the man was about to stand up, Daya became anxious. She hurriedly grabbed the man and held him back angrily.

"Okay, don't spoil my good deeds. The worst I can do is lend them a tael of silver."

"One tael of silver?"

The man stretched out a finger and stared at her with his face red and thick with anger,

"You send beggars? What can you do with one tael of silver? In recent years, you have paid more than one tael of rice and noodles for them. You can't say that."

Da Ya gritted her teeth bitterly, dropped the chopsticks in her hand, and shouted dissatisfied:

"Two taels at most?"

"Five taels..."

"Two liang..."
