Fast travel: the host is poisonous

Chapter 513 Raising Children 4
Xu Hui's eldest daughter is now eight years old, probably because she has hardly eaten anything nutritious since she was born, so she looks very thin.It seems that a gust of wind blowing from the side can also blow her away.She was very happy to see that her mother was fine, even though she was drinking rice soup with only a few grains of rice, she was still happy, and kept calling for her mother around Shenxi.

Seeing this little girl being so obedient and clever, Shen Xi couldn't help feeling soft-hearted.

The man had a dry meal, greeted the old lady and was ready to go out.Now it's almost winter outside, although it's not freezing outside yet, it's still quite cold, and there's no work in the field for people to work on for the time being.However, the man couldn't bear to stay with the whole family and his wife, so he often chatted with a group of idlers in the village at the barren temple at the head of the village to pass the time.

Seeing that the man didn't want to stay at home, the old lady was a little unhappy, and she muttered a lot of words. The sallow and thin girl had already gone back to her room after drinking the soup.It's almost winter, but she doesn't even have a pair of decent pants. If she runs and jumps outside, it's not only very cold, but also very hungry. If nothing happens, she just curls up on the small bed covered with straw and plays with her fingers.

"Mother, we really don't have enough food in our family. I'm afraid that the children and the head of the family will be hungry. Why don't I go to the mountain to find anything to eat?" Shen Xi said, looking at the old lady eagerly.

The old lady thought about it, and there wasn't a lot of work to do at home this winter, as long as the three of them didn't eat too much food at home, whatever they could bring back would be fine.It's what she and her son can't eat, just give her and that little girl a slice of food.

"Okay, then go out and look for it." The old lady let go, and threatened again: "If you catch something good outside, if you dare to steal it outside by yourself, I will interrupt you." legs!"

"Mother, I dare not." Shen Xi said timidly.

Seeing her daughter-in-law's attitude towards her, the old lady felt extremely satisfied.

As soon as Shen Xi entered the room, the little girl leaned over and surrounded Shen Xi: "Mother!"

Shen Xi smiled and rubbed the little girl's head: "Are you hungry?"

When the little girl heard this, she was so frightened that she didn't dare to say anything. She shook her head like a rattle: "Mother, I'm fine, I'm not hungry at all."

Seeing such a child, Shen Xi felt even more distressed.But it was useless, Shen Xi couldn't conjure up a bunch of food out of thin air for her to eat.

She sighed: "Mother will go out to find something to eat later, do you know that you take good care of your brother at home?"

The little girl nodded immediately: "I know, mother, I will definitely take good care of my brother, and I will never let grandma and father harm my brother."

Although she is still young, she is already very sensible.She knew that only mother in this family really loved her, and both her father and grandma disliked her as a girl.

Now that my younger brother was finally born, I didn't expect that my younger brother was more pitiful than her. Both grandma and father despised my younger brother for being ugly, called him a monster, and wanted to burn him to death.The little girl thought for a while and then said: "Mother, don't worry. If grandma and father want to do something to my brother, I will definitely hide."

"That's good." Shen Xi smiled and nodded, ready to feed the child before going out, and then she found a very embarrassing thing.

The original owner didn't have much milk at all. It seemed that not only the eldest daughter was hungry, but also the younger son was not full.
