Chapter 44 The human nature is too cold and cruel
Looking at the despair, numbness, or selfish people in front of her, Li Yurong reached out to cover her daughter's eyes, and tried her best to take the child into her arms, "Qi'er, be good, don't look."
Can't watch! The child is still young, the world is too dirty, and the human nature displayed here is too crazy in less than a day. She cannot let her daughter see this.
Although, I am also very selfish.
It’s not that she and her child didn’t have money in their undergarments, and it’s not that she didn’t sympathize with Aunt Yang and the third girl.
But she couldn't, couldn't give out the banknotes out of sympathy, let alone let her daughter take the risk of being exposed and give out property or medicine to save people. Even if they had it, her daughter could get it, but unfortunately they couldn't, absolutely couldn't.
!
Everyone has gone through a rigorous search and body search, so there is no reason that mother and daughter could hide these things? And when they take out the money or medicine, how will they explain their origin?
People's hearts are sinister, she can't bet that everyone will doubt, can they come up with more?
Do you wonder why the house raid happened unexpectedly and they still had all these preparations?
I’m sure no one will think, oh, did the mother and daughter know something, so they prepared these things in advance?
Whether it was banknotes or medicines, they couldn't tell at all.
She is also a mother, and also selfish. She has children and husband behind her, and she has to protect them!
Since it can’t help, then don’t read it, don’t read it!
The human heart, human nature, is too cold and cruel. At this time, she has to be cruel, hard, dark-hearted, and numb.
Holding her daughter tightly, Li Yurong kept warning herself in her heart.
Xiao Yuqi noticed the tightness of her mother who was holding her, and she was sensitive and felt that something was wrong with her mother's state.
She was a selfish child who grew up on a garbage planet. Faced with the scene just now, she was unmoved and had no intention of helping.
At this moment, he realized that something was wrong with his mother. Xiao Yuqi even withdrew his ears that were paying attention to the movement just now. He no longer listened to the plaintive sobs of the woman on the other side and the curses muttered in her mouth. Instead, he concentrated on his side and stretched out his arms.
He stretched out his small arms and hugged his mother back.
"Mom, don't be afraid, Qiqi will protect you, be good!", comforting, Xiao Yuqi put her head in, kissed her mother on the forehead.
Um, please forgive her for not being able to coax people. These words of comfort are what she has learned and sold now!
Being so thoughtfully comforted by her daughter in her arms, Li Yurong came back to her senses, feeling sour, soft and sweet in her heart.
Lowering her head and rubbing her daughter's tender face with her face, Li Yurong had a smile on her face.
Yes, since you have chosen to be alone and selfish to the end, don't regret or sympathize. In the face of survival, sympathy is cheap, and it may even lead your family into the abyss.
For the sake of her children and husband, she, Li Yurong, did not hesitate to become a vicious woman and wear a battle armor!
Gululu...
Noticing that her mother's body was gradually relaxing, Xiao Yuqi had no time to breathe a sigh of relief when suddenly, an embarrassing sound sounded between mother and daughter.
Um, are you hungry?
Yes, can they not be hungry?
At the end of the day, they still had the same meal they had in the morning, but they didn't even eat a grain of rice at noon or at night! I don't know if these damn jailers forgot to give them food.
How did Xiao Yuqi know that the jailer deliberately did not bring the first meal as a killing stick to them?
Angry in her heart, Xiao Yuqimu thought about the food boxes her mother packed for her before the accident, and the delicious food she harvested in the kitchen, her eyes brightened.
She was originally sitting horizontally in her mother's arms, but she struggled quickly and changed from sitting horizontally to sitting upright. She sat on her mother's lap with her two fat legs spread apart, and came face to face with her mother.
It was very dark inside the cell. Except for a little bit of moonlight shining near the cell railings, the rest of the cell was pitch black.
The place they chose happened to have some moonlight, so in order to hide, she could only choose this action.
"Mom." Xiao Yuqi lowered his voice and shouted deliberately. At the same time, he quickly took out a piece of pastry from the space and held it in his hand.
Li Yurong couldn't hear it clearly, so she lowered her head subconsciously and approached her daughter's little head, also lowering her voice and asking, "Why..." Before the word "la" came out of her mouth, something soft and fragrant was stuffed into her mouth. Li Yurong almost immediately
Understand, this is food.
Thinking of the secrets about her daughter, Li Yurong felt soft and distressed, and even frowned deeply in worry.
She wanted to warn her daughter not to act rashly, but now that there were people around her, she didn't dare to say anything, so she had to quietly chew the cake in her mouth and swallow it, then shook her head on her daughter's little head.
Xiao Yuqi didn't care about this, and she did it very secretly. In order to avoid being discovered by the people around her, she still took tasteless food, not even her favorite meat, just for fear of being discovered by people with good noses.
As a result, her mother still refused to cooperate, so that was no good. She had to protect her mother, who was hard to find.
Xiao Yuqi ignored his mother's resistance and took out two more non-fortresses.
Afraid that the child would make big moves and attract people's attention, Li Yurong had no choice but to take precautions while using her movements to cover up and eat quickly.
Fortunately, everyone's eyes were focused on Aunt Yang, who was still holding her child and crying, and no one had time to pay attention to the mother and daughter.
Li Yurong ate four small pieces of pastry and shook her head, refusing to eat any more.
There are only so many things, and everyone can still survive in this prison, and even if they can get out, there will still be a long journey of exile waiting for them in the future.
I have to think about my children. I have to save these good pastries from the Duke's Mansion for my three children. These things can save lives on the road.
After noticing that her mother was shaking her head firmly and pursed her lips and refused to open her mouth, Xiao Yuqi was helpless and was about to put away the two small cakes in her hand, but her mother suddenly whispered in her ear and asked her to eat by herself.
Xiao Yuqi thought for a while and realized that his stomach was also beating. He curled his lips in disgust, stuffed a piece of it into his mouth, and then placed it in his mother's arms, chewing it carefully behind his back.
As she chewed, Xiao Yuqi thought of her two new brothers.
In the darkness, she quietly tugged at the skirt of her mother's chest. When her mother lowered her head and looked over in confusion, she pointed to the other side of the wall outside the cell and mouthed, "Brother."
Li Yurong certainly knew what her daughter meant by those two silent words.
After thinking for a while, Li Yurong shook her head indifferently.
It’s not that she doesn’t care about her sons, nor is she worried about them starving. In fact, she doesn’t want to expose her daughter’s secrets for the sake of her two sons!
I have owed this daughter my whole life, and she can no longer...
In this life, she is here to pay off her debts.
Li Yurong took her daughter's other little hand holding the pastry and asked the child to eat the remaining piece into his mouth without any explanation. The meaning was very obvious. Although the two sons would be hungry for a while, they would wait until they were ready.
There will be food to eat tomorrow. Although the food is very poor, very poor, but at least you won't be hungry.
As a boy, if he would have to go to such a poor and difficult place to earn a living in the future, it would be good for him to get some exercise in advance. She believed in her son, especially the old man.
