1 Awakened by hunger

Next Chapter

"Girl, wake up!"

Qiao Xitan was awakened, and what caught her eye was an old but kind face.

She looked at this face blankly, and she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.

She remembered that she had locked the door before going to bed, but how did the old lady get into her house?

An old lady can also burglary at this age??

Qiao Xitan came back to his senses violently, sat up in shock in his dying illness, and felt that this development was a bit mysterious.

But before she could question the old lady's origin, she felt a pain in her body, her stomach was throbbing, and the hunger made her dizzy.

"The injury is not healed yet, but don't be so violent, come, drink some gruel." The old lady held Qiao Xitan, who was falling down, and handed her an open-ended bowl in her hand.

Qiao Xitan's gaze fell on the small broken bowl, and a strange memory suddenly surged, and her three souls were almost gone.

She, she actually crossed over!

After the original owner got married, her husband was conscripted, and the two didn't even worship the court, and her husband was taken away by the government.

After that, she served her mother-in-law alone and raised her three-year-old brother-in-law, who left last winter, and not long after, the news of her husband's death on the front line also came back, and the pension was intercepted by the uncle's family, who had long since separated from them, before it reached the original owner.

In addition, all the fields and family wealth were taken away by the uncle's family on the grounds that she could not take care of them, and the original owner and the little uncle had no way to ask for help, so they were starved to death at home!

Accepting this stomach-wrenching memory, Qiao Xi Sandalwood looked around the surrounding environment in a daze, and saw that this was a dilapidated bamboo house with a leaky roof, not to mention the leakage everywhere, and there was not even a decent piece of furniture.

The bed wasn't a bed, and the one lying beneath her was a shabby door covered with a layer of straw.

And beside her, at this time, lay the little uncle who was hungry and had a blue face.

"Thank you......" Qiao Xi Sandalwood took a bowl of hot porridge handed over by the old woman in a daze, and was driven by hunger to drink the porridge in two bites.

At this time, the little uncle lying next to him suddenly twitched his little body and suddenly opened his eyes.

Qiao Xitan caught a glimpse of the child waking up, and his hand holding the empty bowl suddenly paused.

Ah, still alive!

The child was only three years old, but his eyes were very cold, and he looked at Qiao Xitan with a strong sense of scrutiny, and seemed to be very strange to her.

The moment he met the child's gaze, Qiao Xitan was a little weak-hearted, only thinking that he was indifferent to himself because she didn't leave him a bite to eat.

"Erlang is also awake, come, drink a cup of hot goat's milk first, and my mother-in-law also left you a steamed bun." Granny Wang seemed to like Erlang very much, and when she saw that he was awake, she immediately helped him up, let the child's small body lean on her, and handed a bowl of goat's milk to his mouth.

However, the child frowned, and his pale and bleak face showed a little disgust.

Hanging eyes lowered slightly to look at the dirty bowl next to his lips, and he didn't know what emotion was in his heart for a while.

I think that he is a dignified young master of the demon clan, and he would actually take away such a child's body.

And this child was still starved to death, which is really a great loss.

"Drink, Jiro." Qiao Xitan didn't drink when she saw that she was slight, and thought that the child was guarding against Wang Po, so she asked her to nod before she dared to open her mouth, "Goat's milk is a good thing, thank you mother-in-law." ”

In the memory of the original owner, Wang Po was the only person in this Lin family village who would help her and her brother-in-law.

But even so, Qiao Xitan still didn't understand, how did a helpless old lady take out the goat's milk, which was very precious at this time?

However, no matter how the goat's milk came from, Qiao Xitan couldn't take care of it, and the most important thing at the moment was to fill her and her brother-in-law's stomachs.

After all, she was hungry, and she couldn't get her family's land and pension back from her uncle.

Relying on the help of Wang Po, Qiao Xitan and Xuanwei finally went to the ground three days later.

"Do you remember what you're going to do when you go to your uncle's house later?" Qiao Xitan called out in front of him, covered in mud and like a little flower child, and squatted down to look at him.

In fact, her little uncle is very good-looking, with long and thick eyelashes, big and bright eyes, and always has a natural sense of cuteness when looking at people.

Although he has been hungry for a long time, the milk fat on his cheeks is still there, looking soft, and even trembling when he walks around, she can't help but pinch it after looking at it for a long time.

But the little uncle, who has always been very obedient in his memory, has been particularly disliking her approach recently, and even glared at her angrily when she pinched his cheek.

Like a small pufferfish, it's weird and cute!

Seeing Qiao Xitan move her gaze to her cheek again, she could guess that she wanted to do something inexplicable again.

He cautiously took a step back and sighed helplessly.

In his own opinion, his appearance had clearly shown his resistance to her, but in Qiao Xitan's eyes, there was only a milky child who pretended to be old and sighed at her.

Damn, I want to bully him even more!

"Got it." As a last resort, he could only nod in Qiao Xitan's expectant gaze.

This Terran is still a little clever.

At this time, his cultivation has not fully recovered, and if he wants to live through this body, he can only listen to her honestly for now.

Thinking of this, he sighed slightly and quietly, and reluctantly led him by Qiao Xitan and walked towards the uncle's house at the other end of the village.

Walking all the way to the uncle's house, Qiao Xitan met many villagers.

"Tan Niang, what happened to you and Erlang, how did you become like this?" Along the way, there were villagers asking this question.

Qiao Xitan wanted to cry, his eyes were red, he was aggrieved and helpless, seeing that there were still a lot of people around him, he immediately opened his mouth, "Da Lang's body can't be found after all, but I still want to set up a tomb for him, but the pension from above and below is still in the uncle's house, I think it should be that the uncle forgot to return it to us, so I thought about taking Erlang to get the pension back." ”

"What's the matter with all this ash on you?" Someone then asked.

"Last night, Erlang and I were digging a grave for Da Lang in the back mountain, but unexpectedly, we fell into the pit and climbed out of the pit for half a night." The tears in Qiao Xitan's eyes never fell, and she couldn't help but cry for herself, "It's also helpless, who let us have no parents to help us at home." ”

In her two words, she quietly revealed to the villagers that her husband's pension was withheld by the uncle's family, and the uncle's family was unkind and unjust, bullied them and didn't say anything, and didn't help her set up a tomb for the eldest man, which can be described as a wolf's heart and a dog's lungs.

The surrounding villagers were really shocked when they heard this, and a few people directly hugged her upset, "Da Lang went to the battlefield to kill the enemy, but it was not for the two of you to be humiliated by others at home, let's go, let's go with you to see what kind of face that family is!" ”

"yes, it's not human!"

"It's really pickled, that family!"

……

Listening to the crusade of the villagers against the uncle's family, Qiao Xitan secretly lowered her eyes and winked at Xuanwei, not at all like her husband who had just died.

With an indifferent face, he looked at the villagers around him who were easily bewitched by Qiao Xitan.

Oh, it's just clever.
