Chapter 1104 Stepfather 15
After eating and drinking, Yuanchun carried her hoe and backpack and went to the fields before the work bell rang. When she finished the rest of her work, the sun was still high in the sky.
Yuanchun called the scorekeeper, recorded the work points, handed in the farm tools, and went to the back mountain.
In the afternoon, Yuanchun was lucky enough to catch another pheasant. This time she brought a broken earthenware jar, cleaned the pheasant, put it in the jar, and stewed pheasant soup.
After eating and drinking, Yuanchun hid the clay pot in the cave and went to dig wild vegetables and pick mushrooms.
She is a person with great luck, and with her merits she has been blessed with golden clothes. Yuanchun's luck is much better than that of the heroine Yu Qing.
Not long after, Yuanchun not only found a wild walnut tree, but also dug up a century-old ginseng.
She hid under the backpack.
After returning home, Yuanchun secretly buried the ginseng in the vegetable garden in the backyard, leaving only a tiny bit of the branches exposed outside. Her stepfather never came to the backyard, so she would not be discovered.
Yuanchun picked a handful of Chinese cabbage and a handful of green onion leaves, and ate cornmeal buns with Chinese cabbage and green onion sauce in the evening.
"What did you eat, you little bitch? Did you steal the delicious food again? Eat this for me, little bitch, get in here and die."
At this time, my stepfather was shouting in the room.
Yuanchun had a wooden face and brought his food in to show him, "Dad, I'm eating Chinese cabbage. Don't you dislike Chinese cabbage? If you want to eat some, I'll give you a handful and pour you some sauce."
"No, just give me two shallots."
"Dad, the shallots are still too small. I only picked a few leaves, but they are so tender."
He is a bastard, and he is also a bastard when it comes to eating.
Even though he is extremely poor, he is quite picky about food. He doesn't eat raw bok choy, but prefers to eat it stewed, especially bok choy stewed with tofu. He can eat a small bowl of it by himself.
When eating green onions, people only eat the white part and don't like to eat the leaves. They say there are bugs on the leaves and they will suck human blood in their stomachs.
Really are……
Yuanchun was speechless.
But there was nothing she could do if the other person didn't want to eat.
The stepfather glared at her angrily, "You stinky bitch, why don't you pull out two of them for me to eat? I can hardly taste anything else in my mouth."
"Dad, I'll go pull it out."
Yuanchun didn't dare to resist and went to the backyard with her head lowered.
After her stepfather had eaten the shallot, he gave her a good look and said, "Bring me a bowl of porridge and another steamed bun."
"There are no more steamed buns. I'll make three in total. I'll eat half of one at a meal, and I'll give you the other two."
In fact, she made six.
She eats two at a meal.
But my stepfather didn't see it, so whatever she said was final.
Er Laizi's face turned black with anger, but he had sold most of the family's grain, and it was a time of shortage of food, so he couldn't let him have his fill.
He drove his stepdaughter out, cursing at her.
Yuanchun ate and drank her fill, and washed herself inside and out. She returned to her room exhausted. Just as she was about to go to sleep on the kang, she heard Er Laizi's shout again, "You little bitch, come and help me go to the toilet... I have a stomachache."
Yuanchun dragged her tired body to the east room.
Another night passed, and Yuanchun went in and out more than ten times without even closing her eyes.
When the bell rang in the morning, Yuanchun went to the east room and said pitifully, "Dad, I'm very sleepy. I haven't slept for two days and two nights. Can I take a day off?"
"If you want me to break your legs, then ask for leave."
Yuanchun turned pale with fear, "Dad, I..."
"Go back to work. If you earn one less work point, I'll break your legs." The stepfather said viciously, "I didn't marry you to that old cow, so you should be grateful and take good care of me, otherwise I'll beat you to death."
Again, the same words threatening her.
Yuanchun turned around and walked out silently.
