Chapter 302 Mom, I'm so hungry
Yu Xueli's heart tightened when she heard what Wang Lianhua said. Looking at the two girls with red eyes from crying, her hands were shaking with anger.

"Shirley, you have to think of a way to deal with this matter first. I see that your parents are not easy to get along with. Aren't you and Doctor Qian discussing the wedding date? What if there is a quarrel at that time?"

"Go ahead and make a fuss. I'm a divorced woman, so what relationship do I have with my natal family? When I married Xu Laizi, they said I was a disgrace and that I had nothing to do with the Yu family after marriage. Why are you making such a fuss now? Everyone has sharp eyes, and who doesn't know who?"

Wang Lianhua sighed. That’s what she said, but that’s not the case!

A word of filial piety from others can make a person feel suffocated. No matter what happened in the first place, a phrase like "let the past be the past" can wipe out all the suffering a person has endured.

"How about we go find Xiao Meng later. She's very shrewd and must have an idea."

"No, Shen Meng received a transfer order today. She is now a government employee. She can't do things according to her temper like she does now. This is my own business. I can handle it myself. I can't ask her for help in everything. It will tire her to death."

"Really? She works for the government now, which means she's an official. Hey, that's great, that's great. God bless her. Hehe, good people will be rewarded."

"So happy?"

"Oh, no, today when I went out to clean up my private plot, I saw Aunt Hua. Haha, you don't know what a horrible person she is now. When she passed by my hedge garden, she cursed at me and Shen Meng. Bah, the life she has now is all her own fault. She tried to please Zhou Jiaojiao so much back then, but now, no one cares about her! Oh, I'm happy, really happy, I'm really happy today."

Yu Xueli smiled as she listened to her words. Wang Lianhua went to the kitchen and brought out the prepared meal. The dishes that Yu Xueli brought from the state-owned restaurant were still hot. She opened the lunch box and put it on the table.

"I've eaten in the county town. These meals are for you. Eat them while they're hot."

"Wow, it smells so good. There's meat too. Thank you, auntie."

"Thank you, aunt."

Daqing and Erqing thanked Yu Xueli first before starting to eat with chopsticks.

"You're welcome. Eat more. These are all delicious dishes. I brought them especially for you. After eating, wash up, do your homework, and go to bed quickly. Don't stay up late, okay? Daqing, you always read until very late these days. Don't hurt your eyes."

"Oh, I understand, Auntie. I'm paying attention to it!"

The two women each raise their own children, and now their life feels comfortable. It is much better than living with a stinky man. They don't have to serve anyone, and the children are sensible, and there are not so many chaotic things.

After finishing her meal, Yu Xueli lay on the kang and looked at the sleeping Xiaoya, with tears in the corners of her eyes and her eyes slightly narrowed.

The next morning, Daya came with Chubao on her back and Daqing and Erqing to go to school with Mingyang and others. Shen Meng took a few small pieces of white flour and stuffed them into their small schoolbags.

"Please ask for leave for Mingyang and the others today. Auntie is going to take them to the county town. They will go to school tomorrow!"

"Okay, then we'll be leaving first, Auntie. We'll be late soon."

"Be good, go ahead!"

Shen Meng stood at the door and watched the little kids walking towards the school. As she turned around, she listened to their whispers.

"What if your grandma and grandpa come over to snatch Xiaoya today?"

"It's okay. Xiaoya is staying at home today and not going anywhere. It's useless for anyone to rob her. My mother said there's no need to be afraid."

"Yeah, I also told my mother to lock the door and not go anywhere today. I'll just stay at home and watch over Xiaoya. If they come over, we'll let the people in our village beat them up."

"Knock out their teeth."

The children walked quickly. If I wanted to hear more, they had already walked far away. "Mingkai, Mingkai, come here."

"mother?"

"Son, look at how fat you are now. Go out for a walk and check on Xiaoya and ask her if she got scared yesterday."

"Oh!"

Lu Mingkai held a stick of malt candy and staggered towards Yu Xueli. On the way, he met Dezi, who looked him up and down with disdain, snorted and left.

Dezi lowered his head awkwardly, but did not leave. He stood at the intersection waiting for someone.

After a while, Yu Xueli came out of the house with a bag on her shoulder, with a smile on her face. Just now, Mingkai praised her for her beauty. The little guy was very sweet-mouthed. After a few words, she felt that she had several more wrinkles from smiling.

"mother."

Hearing someone calling her, the smile on her face faded a lot. She originally didn't want to pay attention to it, but this child was waiting for her here every day, getting thinner day by day. After all, he was her son, and she was not really unmoved.

"What's up?"

"Mom, I'm so hungry, can you give me something to eat?"

After Dezi finished speaking, tears streamed down his face and his little body was shaking. He didn't even dare to look up at his own mother.

"Why don't you go find your grandparents if you're hungry? Where's your dad?"

"I, my grandparents said that there was not much food left at home, so they asked me to wait for you at the intersection every day, saying that you were my mother and would not be so cruel because you felt sorry for me. Dad was not home every day, and I had not seen him for a long time. Mom, I, I didn't want to cause you any trouble, but I was so hungry."

Yu Xueli sighed, asked him to wait a moment, and turned and walked towards home.

I've been waiting for so many days, and every time I watched myself walk away. Overall, I have understood a few things.

When Wang Lianhua saw her coming back, she was about to ask her if she had forgotten anything, but then she took out two pancakes from the closet, spread some pickles on them, and quickly shut her mouth.

She had eaten very full in the morning, so it was impossible that she was eating for herself. She had seen Dezi waiting at the intersection when she sent the child to Xie Jinghao's house before. Now seeing her like this, she finally understood.

However, there were two eggs boiled that morning in the closet, so she walked over and handed them to Yu Xueli.

"Give this to Dezi as well. I see he's very thin. He must have suffered a lot in the past six months."

"No, just eat this. The good stuff is better for my big girl and little girl to eat."

Wang Lianhua opened her mouth, but no words of comfort came out.

When Dezi saw Yu Xueli coming over with food, his eyes lit up. He took it, took two big bites, and smiled at Yu Xueli.

"Thank you, mother."

Yu Xueli waited until he had almost finished eating before she said, "Don't wait here anymore. Go to school with your sister in a couple of days. I've said before that I'll take care of your schooling and living expenses. Go home and ask your grandparents. If they're willing, you can go. Just come back and tell me."

"Oh, I understand, mother. I will be obedient in the future. Mother, I was wrong. Please don't abandon me."
