Aunt Kang was so slapped by her husband that she was stunned.
Even if she wasn't stunned, she didn't dare to say anything at this moment. Who made her man angry?
"Patriarch, you drink first. The porridge is still warm at the moment, but it will be cold in a while." An Jiuyue said to the patriarch without even looking at Aunt Kang.
Then, ignoring the others, he lit the fire for them, watching them all rush to finish the porridge, then put away the jars and bamboo tubes, and prepared to leave.
"Jiuyue, your porridge is too thin. Make it thicker tomorrow." Someone saw An Jiuyue was leaving and hurriedly stopped her and said.
Hearing this, An Jiuyue stopped and glanced back at him.
"If you want to eat tomorrow, how about I cook for you?" she asked them.
"Well."
The man was stunned by her words and turned red.
"Jiuyue, that's what you said. We didn't say we wanted to cook. It's just that this porridge is really not enough to fill our stomachs."
"That's right, with so little porridge and so many people sharing it, how can we be full?" Several men avenged the injustice of the person who just spoke, and also said to An Jiuyue.
"Jiuyue, you have saved us, there is no reason for us to starve, right?"
After hearing their words, An Jiuyue finally turned cold, looked at those shameless people with cold eyes, and sneered.
"I didn't tell you to drink enough, I just told you not to starve to death."
She really has a good attitude towards these people, right? She still dares to fight with him. Do you really think she is easy to bully?
"Otherwise, I won't send you porridge from tomorrow on. You go to the mountains to dig wild vegetables and bark to eat. Anyway, you can still find food even without me. There is not much else on the mountain, and there must be a lot of bark.
You will definitely be able to eat enough!"
"you--"
When those men heard her words, they were about to get angry.
At this time, several men came out again and stopped them.
"Okay, okay, it's great to have you stuttering and drinking. What else do you want? If it weren't for Jiuyue, we people would still be hungry on the roof. Maybe we'd all be washed away by the flood!"
"The Jiuyue family has no land and doesn't have much food. It's already a great favor to be able to give you some plain porridge!"
There were bad people in the village, but there were also good ones. Seeing that someone was reporting the injustice on her behalf, An Jiuyue didn't say anything more, but looked at the clan leader.
"Chief, you'd better ask them to go outside to collect more firewood. Although it's wet, it can still be burned in the fire for a few hours in the cave. It's not safe in the mountains at night, so I'd better nod.
A fire is better."
"Okay, I understand." The patriarch responded.
"Jiuyue, you should be more careful when you go back. There is no need to come here tomorrow morning. Come at noon. With so many people, the food will definitely not be enough. One meal a day is enough."
He said this specifically to the people who just disliked the white porridge that An Jiuyue brought.
I really want to slap each of these guys to death. How dare I look down on them because I think my face is so big and I can’t shut their mouths even though I have food to eat!
"Eating one meal a day? That's not okay!"
Someone heard the patriarch's words and immediately shouted.
