Chapter 699 Escape 4
Fortunately, Mrs. Du was vicious and treated her three daughters-in-law harshly, but she truly loved her only daughter. After Du Jincui married into the Geng family, Mrs. Du not only did not let Du Jincui take the Geng family’s The food was used to support her parents' family, and the Du family cooked meat to eat. She would also ask her grandson to come over and call her daughter back to eat meat.
But it was only her daughter. The son-in-law, Geng Dazhuang, and the nephews, Geng Xiaowu and Geng Xiaoyu, could not eat a piece of meat from her Du family.
Because Mrs. Du loved Du Jincui, during the escape, whenever Du Jincui had a bite to eat, he would leave half a mouthful for Mrs. Du.
Sister-in-law Du would not dare to snatch food from her mother-in-law's mouth.
She smiled and said, "Haha, since it is reserved for mother, let me wait for mother to come back and let my sister-in-law feed her."
Not long after, Mrs. Du came back with the support of Mrs. Du's second sister-in-law and third sister-in-law Du.
Du Jincui stepped forward to take over the third sister-in-law's position with a distressed look on her face, helped her sit down, and then took out the half handful of chaff, "Mom, this was saved from my mouth, you Eat quickly."
"The Geng family has nothing else. How can I swallow this chaff without water? My throat is cut." Mrs. Du said, her voice was hoarse and rough.
Du Jincui's eyes were red, "Mom, the small half bag of chaff from the Geng family is what we saved from living frugally. We don't have anything else to eat. Mom, just take a bite. At least you can survive." ”
"I can't eat it." Mrs. Du closed her eyes, "I was told to eat chaff. My throat hurts so much, and I can't pull it out. I... oh my god, why isn't it raining? What if this is going to happen? Our lives."
"My old lady has lived for decades and is still suffering from this. I..."
"Mom, don't howl. Come on, save your energy, we have to hurry up soon." Du Jincui wiped her dry eyes and stuffed the chaff into Mrs. Du's hand, "Mom, please take a bite, maybe we can eat it tomorrow. You can find food, mother, you must live. If you leave, what will your daughter do?"
The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried.
After that, Mrs. Du grabbed the chaff and swallowed it down her throat bit by bit.
... Geng Dalin and his wife and the five children of the Geng family were fed Bigu Pill by Yuanchun. They did not feel hungry and they did not eat anything in the morning.
However, they did not doubt anything at all. They only thought that my mother (grandma) was right. They must be too hungry to feel hungry.
After everything was packed and put on the pull cart, Geng Dalin picked up his youngest son and put him on the pull cart.
"Mom, come up and sit down too. My son will drag you away." Geng Dalin said to his mother.
Yuanchun waved his hand, "I won't sit down anymore. Although I am old, I can still walk. When I can't walk anymore, you can drag me along."
Geng Dazhuang, from beginning to end, He didn't even care about my mother or the children. He was only thinking about food. When my mother wasn't paying attention, he secretly grabbed a handful of chaff and stuffed it into his mouth.
He choked and rolled his eyes.
After eating the chaff, he choked so hard that he reached out to the small bundle of grass roots again.
Yuan Chun slapped him, "Geng Dazhuang, what's the matter? It's not enough to steal the bran skin, so you're here to steal the children's food?"
"Just a few grass roots, they are the lives of the children. If you eat them, do you want the children to starve to death?"
Geng Dalin also looked at his elder brother disapprovingly, "Brother, you Just eat the bran skin, why are you still thinking about the grass roots? The children's throats are tender and they can't eat the bran skin, so they rely on this small bundle of grass roots. How can you let them live if they are hanging on to their lives and have no grassroots? "
Forget about being scolded by my mother, this younger brother who usually can't say three words came to scold him, Geng Dazhuang said angrily, "What do you want me to do? I haven't eaten yet."
