Yao Lang picked up the broom and slapped him back, "Who dares to come in?"

"Ouch, it hurts!"

Xie Anfang was hit on the back and was already weak, wailing in pain.

Different from him, Xie Jincai walked gracefully, and even though dust was blowing in her face, she still looked noble, like a golden pheasant among many native chickens.

She bowed and saluted.

"Cai'er has met my aunt, my second brother, and my second sister-in-law."

Xie Jizu, the third son of the Xie family, looked at his daughter proudly. They raised their daughter very well, if nothing had happened to her.

Cai'er is going to marry a high-ranking official.

Xie's mother asked, "Where is your mother?"

Xie Jincai's eyes turned red, and she slowly knelt on the ground, like a wounded kitten, crying and shrinking her body.

"My mother passed away a few days ago..."

"Oh, poor child, get up quickly." Xie's mother had no feelings for her third brother and sister-in-law.

I didn't interact with her much, but I knew that she was arrogant and didn't like to ask for help.

Xie Jincai shook her head, tears in her eyes, and said pitifully, "I only ask my aunt to give me some food so that Cai'er can live a few more days and mourn for her mother for a few more days."

"This..." Xie's mother pursed her lips.

Afterwards, she straightened up and ignored Xie Jincai who was kneeling on the ground, and her attitude became much colder.

Xie Jincai asked anxiously, "Aunt, did Cai'er say something wrong?"

Mother Xie took out a handkerchief, wiped her hands which were covered with dust, and turned her back slightly.

"You should never use your deceased mother to gain sympathy.

The method is very good, but it is used on the wrong person. First, I have no food, and second, your mother is dead, so you can’t fulfill your filial piety. "

She looked at Shi Shuang.

"Shuang'er, I'm not feeling well, so I'll go back first."

Mother Xie stepped over the threshold and couldn't help but smile bitterly when she heard the three elders fighting for food.

She is soft-hearted.

I'm afraid of delaying Shuang'er's business here, so I'd better go back.

Xie Jincai shouted, "Aunt! Aunt!" She watched her aunt walk away, the light in her eyes gradually disappeared, and then she thought of the two people next to her.

"Second brother, second sister-in-law, please give our family a chance to survive."

Xie Jizu stepped forward, also bowed and begged, "Nephew, niece-in-law, please give me some alms."

Shi Shuang and Xie Yan looked at each other.

Xie Wei declined, "We also live in the Lin Mansion, and we can't take care of ourselves. Bringing the three elders here will only make things worse. Third Uncle is strong, and he will be able to find a living one no matter how difficult it is."

Xie Jizu's face was gloomy.

He said in a deep voice: "Are you really going to watch someone die without helping?"

Suddenly.

Shi Shuang saw a person in the crowd. She raised her lips and said in a hoarse voice, "I can give you food, but I need you to exchange it for something of equal value."

Xie Jizu was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you want?"

"She." Shi Shuang pointed at the little girl at the back, "Two bags of food. These are enough for you to eat for a few days."

The father and daughter looked back.

"she!?"

Xie Jincai couldn't believe that the person Shi Shuang wanted was the child of a concubine, and jealousy welled up in her eyes.

Xie Jizu pulled up his little daughter's arm and lifted her over.

"Sure. I agree."

"Father, father..." Xie Ningzi knelt on the ground in fear. She hadn't eaten for several days. This happened too suddenly and made her panic.

Why would the second sister-in-law want her?

Xie Jincai pointed at herself and said with a hint of anxiety: "Second sister-in-law, Cai'er can do anything for you. Xie Ningzi was born to a singing girl and can do nothing."

Shi Shuang waved.

Yao Lang held two bags of grain and placed them in Xie Jizu's arms.

She said calmly: "Go quickly, or I will change my mind."

"Go!" Xie Jizu grabbed Xie Jincai's ear and cursed as he walked away, "I've raised you for so long, and you're not as good as your sister. You can't even buy two bags of rice, you loser!"

The word "waste" penetrated from the head into the heart.

Her heart was deeply stabbed, she was very unconvinced, she broke free from her father's hand and rushed to Shi Shuang.

"Shi Shuang! Are you jealous that I'm younger and prettier than you?

Why don't you keep me? How am I worse than Xie Ningzi?"

Shi Shuang came closer, her voice cold as she whispered, "The one who beat Xie Yan that day was you, not her."

Her hand went to the woman's neck.

"Get out of here now, or I'll kill you."

Xie Jincai shuddered all over, a chill ran down her back, and when she met Shi Shuang's gaze, she stepped back repeatedly.

The place on the neck where a woman has touched it.

It itches, as if there’s a poisonous snake coiled around my neck. “Ahhh, someone’s killing me!”

"Kill... kill someone?"

Xie Ningzi was weak and her face turned pale. She took one look at the Lin Mansion and fainted out of fright.

Shi Shuang was surprised. She looked at Xie Wei blankly, "Did you scare her?"

Xie Wei's lips curled up, his eyes filled with a gentle smile.

"It could be me."

Possibly? Hum, could it be her?

Shi Shuang put her hands behind her back and helped the third in command to put Xie Ningzi on her back.

After an incense stick of time, Xie Ningzi still hadn't woken up. Shi Shuang felt her pulse and said, "She fainted from hunger. Go get some millet porridge."

Millet porridge is a liquid food and is very easy to eat.

Zhizi held the bowl and served food bit by bit. She widened her eyes and said, "Miss, she is eating..."

Sudden.

Xie Ningzi shut up immediately.

Shi Shuang chuckled: "Okay, stop pretending to be asleep. We have no ill intentions. Get up, finish your meal, and get ready to work."

"Work?" Xie Ningzi opened her eyes. She met her second sister-in-law's gaze and her ears turned red. She was so hungry that she picked up the millet porridge and drank it carefully.

Delicious!

So full!

Shi Shuang said, "I didn't choose you to come here to enjoy life. I'll provide you with food and lodging, and you'll work for me. Are you willing?"

Xie Ningzi nodded: "Yes!"

"Give her another bowl."

"..."

"Can I have another bowl...?"

When Gardenia walked in, she looked at the empty bowl on the table and Xie Ningzi who was wolfing down her food. She hesitated for a few seconds before asking.

"You, you haven't eaten for a few days?"

"Three, three days." Xie Ningzi stretched out her hand. Suddenly, as if she thought of something, she smiled and said, "I ate tree bark. I wonder if it counts as a meal."

Shi Shuang asked in confusion: "Didn't you take the soldiers' food?"

Xie Ningzi paused while eating, sadness welling up in her eyes.

"Yes, but most of them are at my second uncle's place. Even if we have some, they are not for me to eat."

She was always hungry.

Or he would lick the remaining rice grains in the bowl, as all the food was eaten by his father and sister.

After eating.

Xie Ningzi knelt on the ground and kowtowed, saying, "Second sister-in-law, I will work hard."

Shi Shuang nodded lightly, she stood up and gave instructions.

"We can talk about it tomorrow if there's anything. You can rest first."

"Yes!" Xie Ningzi nodded. She sat on the soft bed and moved. She wiped her tears and still couldn't believe it.

"This all... seems like a dream."

When Yao Lang saw the young lady coming out, he sighed and said, "The people from the second house can't be driven away. They must see you, or else they will report to the police."

"Where is Uncle Lin?" Shi Shuang asked.

"It seems he went out." Yao Lang scratched his head. He looked around but didn't see him.

Shi Shuang pursed her lips and looked at the rogue family outside the yard.

"Go get the contract, put a big table in the yard, and put some more food on it."

She wants to do something for the Xie family.

Get rid of these vampires.
