Chapter 12: Big Brother, Second Brother, Are You Tired from Work?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Dinner was prepared by Xu Fengqiao. There was a pot of millet porridge and two large steamed buns. The family shared them.

Although it was porridge, millet was expensive. In the past, it was very difficult to get to eat it.

Xu Fengqiao divided the two steamed buns into six portions and distributed them evenly to everyone. Xiaodong was still growing and finished it in one bite. Then, he began to eat the porridge in big mouthfuls.

Su Ling looked at the steamed bun in her hand and suddenly placed it in Xiaodong’s bowl.

Xiaodong looked unsurprised. “You’re too full again, Sister?”

Su Ling nodded and began to eat the porridge in small mouthfuls.

Xiaodong did not stand on ceremony at all and finished her portion in one go.

Xu Fengqiao was silent for a long time when she saw this scene. It was only when Xiaodong finished eating and left that she could not help but ask her.

“Girl, why do you always give the steamed buns with your brothers? Are you full enough?”

She knew in her heart that the porridge was not filling. Even if they went to bed early at night, they would still be starving.

The girl’s head was buried in the bowl. She only grunted in response. It took her a moment to look up.

Xu Fengqiao still could not bear it. Although her face was a little chubby, she was still extremely thin. Her arms were so thin that they could be broken by a gust of wind.

Xiaoqiu knew that her sister felt bad for them.

“Sister, don’t share it with us in the future. You’re still growing. You can’t always go hungry.”

She looked at him innocently. “Brother, I’m the youngest and don’t work. I should eat less. Besides, I’m already full from the porridge.”

Xiaochun’s expression was even more awful as she exposed her mercilessly.

“I’ve heard your stomach growl for several nights.”

Su Ling looked at him angrily. “Second Brother!”

Su Changsheng was silent for a long time before finally speaking.

“Xiaoqiu is right. In the future, you can eat as much as you’re given. You’re not allowed to share it with others, nor are you allowed to waste it. The days are slowly getting better. One day, Father will really let you guys eat your fill!”

The moment he said this, the atmosphere instantly became heavy. Su Ling looked at him uneasily and did not even dare to eat the porridge.

Seeing her like this, Xu Fengqiao pushed Su Changsheng angrily.

“Why are you so fierce? You’re scaring her!”

At this moment, Su Changsheng also realized that his tone was a little harsh, and his expression became gentler.

“Girl, be good. After you’re done eating, let your brothers bring you to the courtyard to cool off.”

Su Ling nodded and started to eat the porridge. After a while, she put down the bowl.

Su Changsheng glanced at her bowl. There was not a single rice grain left.

There was a smile on his face. “Good girl.”

The girl beamed at the compliment. Seeing that her brothers had also finished eating, she pulled them into the courtyard.

They crouched together in the corner of a yard, looking up at the moon.

The girl looked at the moon for a while, then reached out to pick at the soil in the courtyard.

Her palm, which had been fair just a moment ago, had turned black again.

Xiaoqiu was about to pull her to wash her hands when he saw her suddenly look at them curiously.

“Big Brother, Second Brother, are you tired from working?”

Xiaochun was a simpleton. He thought she was just curious, so he exaggerated.

“Of course I’m tired. I have to move a lot of things every day, wash the dishes and wipe the table, and serve tea and water. It’s so tiring.”

Tears welled up in the girl’s eyes as she listened to him.

“I’m going to work with you guys too. That way, you won’t have to work so hard.”
