After escaping from famine, the evil stepmother was pampered by the villain Zaizai Tuan

In the dead of night, Li Yuanzhi ended his lecture for the day.

Jiang Xiaohua took out a paper bag and opened it, "Here, have some snacks to comfort you."

When the four little ones saw the pine nut candies, their eyes widened.

Xiao Miaomiao stared at it eagerly, but didn't dare to reach out to take it, "What is this? It's so shiny and beautiful!"

Liu Ming also looked at it carefully and said, "This is called pine nut candy. I have seen Erbao eat it."

Erbao is the child of a landlord in the village.

Country dolls rarely have the opportunity to see sweets and snacks.

Occasionally, a seller with a heavy load would come to the village entrance to sell, bringing some candy, needlework and other small groceries.

Even if you meet a salesman, not everyone in the village has spare money to buy sweets for their children.

Those who have some spare money may not be willing to buy such an unsatisfying thing.

Therefore, the four little ones of the Liu family have never tasted candy in their lives.

Jiang Xiaohua didn't say much, picked up a piece and fed it to the young Miao Miao first.

The little girl choked on the candy, narrowed her eyes, held her cheeks in her hands and said, "It's so sweet, is this sweet!"

Liu Guang couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he saw his sister eating deliciously and intoxicatedly.

But he didn't want his stepmother to be proud, so he said with a disdainful attitude. "Isn't it just a snack to entertain the children? I'm almost starved for food, so I still buy such useless things. It's really a waste of money!"

Jiang Xiaohua gave Liu Ming another piece of candy and said, "No matter how difficult life is, as long as you have the energy, you have to find ways to add a little color to the scene in front of you."

"It's like cooking. It's boring. As long as you can eat it, it's so boring."

Liu Guang was stunned for a moment, and wanted to say something, but Liu Ming overran him, "I think what mother said makes sense."

After Liu Ming finished speaking, he sucked the candy in his mouth loudly.

Liu Guang muttered angrily, "Humph, both of them are traitors!"

Jiang Xiaohua also said contemptuously, "Huh, it's better not to eat it. Such a good candy, I will keep it for myself and eat it slowly."

Liu Guang suddenly grabbed a piece of candy and stuffed it into his mouth, his cheeks bulging and he stared, "I'm sorry, I'll piss you off!"

Jiang Xiaohua curled her lips, she was such a little kid, she couldn't resist even the slightest provocation.

She turned to Liu Yong again.

Liu Yong immediately waved his hand, "I'm not a child anymore, so I don't need to eat these."

He paused and said, "Leave my piece for my little sister."

Jiang Xiaohua stretched out her hand and put a piece of candy into Liu Yong's mouth while he was talking.

Liu Yong was stunned, as if he was shocked by Jiang Xiaohua's actions, and as if he was tasting the taste of sugar.

After a moment, he looked away and said dullly, "...It's delicious."

Jiang Xiaohua smiled, "That's right. I know you are the eldest brother in the family, but you don't have to give in to your younger siblings in everything."

Liu Yong looked at Jiang Xiaohua, his eyes flashed with a light he had never seen before.

But these emotions soon disappeared again, and he lowered his head and ate the candy quietly.

Jiang Xiaohua knew very well that it would be impossible for her cubs to accept her from the bottom of their hearts in such a short time.

The four little ones finished eating the candy and were about to go to sleep.

Jiang Xiaohua stopped them and pulled out a few dark green thin willow sticks like magic.

"From now on, we should brush our teeth and rinse our mouth before going to bed and when we get up early."

brush teeth? The four little cubs looked at each other, what is brushing teeth?

Li Yuanzhi helped explain, "It means using some methods to clean the teeth and the inside of the mouth."

"Good tooth powder can not only make your mouth as bright as white porcelain, but also make your breath as white as blue when you speak."

Jiang Xiaohua nodded, "That's right. However, the toothbrushes sold in the city are too expensive, so I prepared some tooth powder myself. Let's brush our teeth with willow branches first."

Choose a flexible wicker, peel off the outer skin, and bite out the lint from the inner core to become a poor man's toothbrush.

Liu Guang pinched the willow branch, frowned and said, "Why brush your teeth? I have never heard of this in the past!"

He said about to throw it away.

Jiang Xiaohua swept away her previous attitude of resignation and said seriously, "Don't throw it away!"

"Do you want to open your mouth in a few years, with black and yellow teeth, and a stink that will turn others upside down?"

Liu Guang shook his head doubtfully.

Jiang Xiaohua continued, "Do you want to have dental disease, rolling on the floor in pain, and having trouble sleeping all night?"

Liu Guang's eyes showed fear and he shook his head vigorously.

Jiang Xiaohua smiled evilly, "Then you want to lose all your teeth and never be able to eat good food again, so you can only drink porridge in this life?"

Liu Guang couldn't help but fantasize about losing all his teeth and drinking porridge every day.

He held his head in his hands and exclaimed, "I don't want it! I don't want a toothache, I don't want all my teeth to fall out!"

Not only Liu Guang, but the other three little ones also gasped and their faces turned pale with fear.

Isn’t it so terrible not to brush your teeth?

Jiang Xiaohua showed a happy mother's smile and looked at the four little cubs one by one.

"Then be obedient and learn to brush your teeth from me. Whoever brushes well will have candy tomorrow!"

Li Yuanzhi watched from the side and was amazed.

It was just to deal with four brats, so she casually used a combination of kindness and power.

This woman is absolutely terrifying.

After Jiang Xiaohua washed herself, she lay down and breathed a long sigh of relief.

She hadn't brushed her teeth for two days and she felt uncomfortable, but now she finally felt better.

At dawn the next day, the refugees got up and started on their way.

You can't get anything to eat if you stay here, so you might as well move forward as soon as possible.

After walking on the official road for two days in a row, the road was completely bare.

People were exhausted and hungry, people were falling ill, and people were dying.

The hungry people started robbing everyone, grabbing food and even children.

Jiang Xiaohua's family then became friends with Mrs. Zhou's family. After all, with more people, they would be more courageous, and those who had bad ideas would not dare to act rashly.

Because on the official road, Jiang Xiaohua didn't catch any prey, so she could only eat rice soup twice a day.

"Hold on a little longer, and we'll have a solution when we get into the mountains tonight."

When we stopped to rest at noon, she encouraged everyone like this.

But Jiang Xiaohua knew in her heart that even with her and Uncle Heiwa here, they could temporarily suppress those people.

There is no guarantee that anyone will lose their mind due to hunger and do crazy things.

So in the past two days, she seemed relaxed in front of everyone, but her heart was also tense.

At night, she didn't dare to sleep with several packs of Mongolian sweat pills in her pocket, for fear that if she wasn't careful, the little kid would be stolen and stewed.

Thanks to Li Yuanzhi's change of guard, he was able to survive these two days.

Finally entering the mountain that night, the refugees who were originally dying suddenly burst out with strength.

They ran into the woods like crazy. When they saw wild vegetables and fruits, they grabbed them and stuffed them into their mouths.

Jiang Xiaohua secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but still did not dare to let the four little ones run around.

She asked Li Yuanzhi to accompany the children to collect firewood and prepare to go hunting in the mountains alone.

Suddenly there was a commotion in the woods ahead, running and crying, coming from a distance.

I could vaguely hear Xu's voice, "Wild boar! Help!"

There were people running around.

Jiang Xiaohua grinned and raised the kitchen knife.
