Chapter 243: Pick It Up and Eat It

water on the ground, and repeatedly licked its body with its crimson tongue.Before Fang Jinxiu and Er could regain their senses, Zong Yu grabbed a wooden stick and with a sharp thrust, plunged it dee...The others at the table were taken aback by Chunlan's words. This girl, since she sat down, had been pulling a long face, as if someone owed her hundreds of taels of silver.

Autumn Chrysanthemum wanted to eat meat, but her eccentric nature stopped her. Jin Yu, with a kind heart, gave her some dishes, but she refused and even threw them on the ground.

Now it's being said that bamboo shoots are poisonous wild vegetables.

Zong Yu Lian, with her fiery temper, couldn't stand Chun Lan's pretentious attitude.

She slammed her chopsticks down, "Do you have something against the pickled bamboo shoots I made"

"You don't recognize it as bamboo shoots because you lack vision. You think you are the Goddess of Agriculture Anything you don't recognize is poisonous wild vegetable!"

"So powerful and precious, how did you end up in the hands of bandits and need rescuing"

"If it weren't for my brother and sister-in-law, you'd still be under those bandits, being ravaged!"

As soon as Zong Yulian spoke, the other three girls also tightened their faces, gritting their teeth and bowing their heads.

Fang Jinxiu heavily rebuked Yu Lian, “Enough! Yu Lian, sit down for me and eat your meal.”

Zong Yulian glared at Fang Jinshu with anger, “Sister-in-law, it was she who intentionally picked a fight!”

"What's wrong with me scolding her a couple of times Which sentence was I wrong to say"

When Fang Jinxiu saw that she wouldn't listen to him and obediently shut her mouth, he simply put on a stern face.

Yu Lian saw that her sister-in-law was really angry, so she quickly waved her hand. "Alright, alright, sis-in-law, please don't be mad. I won't say anything."

Fang Jinshi glanced at Xiaoyue and Jinyu. These two girls had a good appetite just now, but after listening to Yulian's words, their appetites seemed to disappear. They didn't move the rice in their bowls anymore.

Autumn Chrysanthemum cried out in grief, her wounds laid bare. Those unbearable pasts were festering sores on the heart of each of these four girls.

They had just begun to feel like they could start their lives anew, but Zong Yulian ruthlessly tore it apart.

Let the filthy pus and blood flow out.

She didn't object to teaching Chunlan and Fang Jinshu, she was just angry that this niece always spoke without filter, her straightforward personality easily hurt others.

She needs to find a chance to have a good talk with Yulian.

Just as Fang Jinshiu was about to get up and clean up the mess, Chunlan suddenly stood up and pulled Qiuju beside her. With a crash, she smashed the bowl.

She glared at Fang Jinxiu with a face full of resentment.

"I really thought you were a good person. After all, blood is thicker than water. The fact that your niece said such things must mean you taught her to!"

"I see you saved us, but probably with ulterior motives. We've lost our innocence and have nowhere to go, but that doesn't mean we can be mistreated!"

"I see you're trying to trick us into coming back so you can have us as your free maids!"

She snatched the bowl from Qiuju's hand and slammed it heavily on the table. "What are you still eating for Didn't you hear how they were talking about us"

"If you have some backbone, don't eat it."

She also looked at Jinyu and Xiaoyue, "Are you really willing to stay by someone like her side and be used by her"

"Golden Jade, let's go together and ask the village head to take us in. I don't believe that we, a few able-bodied people, can't even support ourselves."

"Even if life is hard, it's more dignified than staying with such people!"

If Chunlan hadn't spoken up, Fang Jinxiu had planned to apologize on behalf of her young girl. It was true that Yulian had spoken too harshly.

Now that she heard Chunlan say this, she suddenly realized that the girl named Chunlan seemed to have been at odds with her ever since she stepped into her courtyard.

At first, she didn't pay much attention. After all, they were all unfortunate people, and she wasn't planning on staying in touch with them anyway.

It seems that Chunlan has been deliberately sowing discord, unwilling to let Xiao Yue and Jinyu stay together, and reluctant to let Qiujing get too close to her.

The thing that made her angriest was that she threw away the bamboo shoots.

Fang Jinshu slowly stood up, “Jin Yu is right, now food is very precious, under natural disasters any kind of edible thing is hard-won.”

Her gaze was sharp and piercing, fixed on Chunlan. There was an air of commanding authority about her, an unspoken power that made people instinctively feel uneasy.

Pick up the bamboo shoots on the ground and eat them.the fat old man, not even his name.The stout old man seemed to have sensed Fang Jinshu's thoughts and smiled even wider, his face, already fleshy, was squeezed into a slit by the eyes.This smile, her...
