Lanzhi straightened her neck and swallowed while looking at the white flour pancake in the bowl. She quickly put the pancake into Gu Fei’s bowl again: “I’ll just eat this.”

Gu Fei shook her head: “I can’t even eat it. How can you eat it? Don’t make it difficult for yourself.”

Lanzhi waved her hands vigorously: “No, I must eat it. Whatever the aunt and others eat, I should eat. I, I will get used to it soon.”

Gu Erlang looked at Lanzhi trying to swallow and felt a little uncomfortable for no reason. He stood up, took a bowl, filled a bowl with vegetable soup, and placed it in front of Lanzhi: “If you can’t eat it, soak it in the soup until it softens. It will be easy to swallow.”

Lanzhi smiled gratefully at him, tore the pancake into pieces, and put it into the soup.

Gu Fei sighed: “Mom, from now on, either everyone will eat white flour or everyone will eat whole grains. I can eat it all by myself.”

Mrs. Chen was silent for a while and then said: “Xiao Fei, you don’t know how expensive the firewood and rice are. And now, we have to flee the famine. I don’t know how long it will take. There are so many people in the family who need to eat and drink. Even a mountain can be empty. Why don’t we save some money?”

Gu Fei didn’t say anything else. She didn’t know how much rice and flour she still had in her space. She would have to take a good look at her inventory.

At this moment, a trembling figure suddenly walked in at the door.

In farmers’ houses, the courtyard gates were not always closed.

Gu Qing was sitting facing the door. He quickly stood up and went to help people: “Grandma, why are you here?”

Mrs. Chen also stood up and said: “Mom, have you eaten? Let’s eat together.”

The old lady waved her hands with a worried look on her face: “I won’t eat your food.”

She turned to look at Gu Fei, staring at the white flour pancake in her hand: “The sun is coming out in the west. I, the grandmother, don’t even have white flour pancakes to eat, but you, a little girl, can eat it without care?”

Gu Fei said nothing, took a big bite of the pancake, and went to pick up the vegetables.

Mrs. Chen quickly apologized and smiled: “Mom, isn’t Xiao Fei recovering from her injuries? I made her something good to eat. There is also some white flour. I will make it and send it to you later.”

The old lady pushed the cane hard into the ground and shouted: “I don’t want to eat. I’m not that lucky. I didn’t raise a good son or daughter-in-law. I don’t deserve to eat such a meal!”

Gu Zhang stood up helplessly: “Mom, then have a good meal. What are you doing? If you have any dissatisfaction with your son, just say it.”

The old lady turned and glared at Gu Zhang: “I want to ask you, how do you teach your daughter? How can she eat alone? How can she be so unfilial to her elders and unkind to her brothers?”

“She is reluctant to give even a piece of candy to her nephew. What’s the use of raising this girl!”

Gu Fei sneered in her heart, it turned out that she stood up for Bao’er, no wonder.

She said calmly: “Grandmother, you can’t blame my father. I was sold when I was 6 years old. My father wanted to teach me, but unfortunately, I didn’t have the chance to listen to his teachings at home.”

The old lady’s face suddenly turned pale with anger. The second brother had been arguing with her for a long time about selling this girl, and she insisted that she was sending Gu Fei to the Marquis’ Mansion to enjoy happiness.

She said so much, but he didn’t believe it.

Gu Fei’s words were accusing her again. She was trembling and speechless for a moment.

Seeing that the old lady’s face was pale, Gu Zhang quickly calmed down the matter and said, “Xiao Fei, do you still have the candy? Take it out quickly and ask your grandma to bring it to Bao’er.”

Gu Fei shook his head, “No, I gave one to each of Huzi and Xiao Cao, and I ate the last one myself.”

The old lady glared at Gu Fei: “I know you still have some, take them out quickly!”
