Thinking of Dong Huang’s thin and malnourished body, Lu Jueyu scooped a bowl of rice from the steamer, and then took out a bowl of herbal chicken soup and a grilled fish from her own space. In addition, she also boiled a cup of fresh milk on the brazier. Although the nutritional content of milk powder and fresh milk in her space is similar, fresh milk tastes better.
Unfortunately, she is unable to provide fresh milk to her family as fresh milk is currently only available in the cities and capital and has not yet reached the county town, not to mention villages. After the milk boiled, she removed the pot from the brazier and poured the milk into the bamboo cup. She added a spoonful of honey and stirred it well.
The meal was ready and she brought it to the living room on a bamboo tray. As soon as he entered the room, Lu Jueyu saw Dong Huang drinking warm water as if she was drinking a delicious drink. She felt a pang of heartache for the little girl.
She put the food on the table and said gently, "Drink the soup before eating, otherwise your stomach will hurt."
Seeing the food in front of her, Dong Huang opened her eyes in surprise. There was not only a bowl of fragrant white rice, but also chicken soup, grilled fish, and even a glass of milk!
Although her saliva had already flowed inside her mouth, Dong Huang still swallowed it and asked, "Aunt Li, can I pack the food instead?"
Lu Jueyu was startled by her words. There must be a reason why she wants to eat later even though she is very hungry.
She sat down next to Dong Huang and asked, "Why? The food won’t taste good when it’s cold."
Dong Huang licked her lips and said, "I want to share it with my brother. My brother hasn’t eaten since yesterday, and he has to go to work in the fields. He must be hungry."
"Don’t your parents let your brother eat?" Lu Jueyu asked in surprise.
When Dong Huang heard her question, the light in her eyes dimmed. She lowered her head and said, "My brother said that my parents have gone to a faraway place and will not come back."
Hearing her words, Lu Jueyu understood that her parents had passed away and she felt uncomfortable saying those words that hurt her.
"Dong Huang, I’m sorry."
"Aunt Li, it’s okay. I’m used to it." Dong Huang said with a smile. freёwebnoѵel.com
