Chapter 31 Human Tragedy
the other side.

Su Xiaoxiao's cabin was on the mountain, a bit far away from the village center. After they had a peaceful breakfast, Su Xiaoxiao went down the mountain.

Su Xiaoxiao planned to go to the town to see if she could stock up on some goods.

Su Jun and Su Yue originally wanted to follow, but Su Xiaoxiao asked them to go to a farther place to find some water. Without water, nothing would happen.

She remembered that there seemed to be a spring in the mountains farther away. Now, people in eight nearby villages depended on that spring to survive.

Although there is very little water in the spring now, it is better than nothing.

Su Jun and Su Yue pulled out a chipped clay pot from the house and carried it to fetch water.

Su Xiaoxiao wandered down the mountain alone. When she passed the door of Su's house, she heard Wang Aifen's howling ghostly voice, and the cursing voices of Su Erqiang and Li Guifang.

Su Xiaoxiao was a little surprised. She saw an old lady sitting at the door of the house next door. She went over and asked, "A Hua Niang, what's wrong with this house?"

Ah Huaniang is older, and because she is a neighbor of the Su family, she usually takes good care of Su Xiaoxiao and her three siblings.

Seeing that it was Su Xiaoxiao who came to ask, A Huaniang took Su Xiaoxiao's hand and whispered: "Girl, don't you know? Just now, your home was robbed!"

Su Xiaoxiao paused, "Been robbed?"

Ah Huaniang sighed and said, "Yes, those relatives from the Su family and the Wang family heard that your family had a lot of food, so they came to grab it. There was a big fuss just now."

When Su Xiaoxiao heard this, she raised her eyebrows, looked at the ajar door of the Su family, and clicked her tongue in her heart.

Sure enough, even if there was some food these days, it would be a common man's crime to have a jade in his possession.

The Su family was too careless and didn't know where to hide.

"Oh, by the way, little girl Xiaoxiao, I heard that you two have separated." Ahua Niang rubbed the back of Su Xiaoxiao's hand, her fingers were wrinkled and rough, but there was concern in her eyebrows, "Why do you separate at this time? ?" When Su Xiaoxiao heard this, she pretended to sigh, and did not forget to give eye drops to the Su family, "Isn't this because of food? You know my grandma, she dislikes us siblings for wasting her food rations, I couldn’t get angry enough to separate our family, so I agreed.”

Ah Huaniang knew that Su Xiaoxiao, the three siblings, had always been bullied by Wang Aifen.

In the past, when there was not much food shortage, Su Xiaoxiao and her three siblings would often go hungry and eat every meal.

Not to mention the lack of food.

Therefore, when Ah Huaniang heard this, she did not hesitate and immediately went to the door of Su's house and said, "My own grandchildren can do such a thing. If she is robbed, it will be retribution!"

Su Xiaoxiao looked bitter.

Seeing this, Ahua Niang sighed and opened her mouth, wanting to help Su Xiaoxiao.

However, these days, everyone is short of food, and her family has been without food for several days.

A Huaniang couldn't help Su Xiaoxiao and could only remain silent.

Su Xiaoxiao understood in her heart, and deliberately pretended not to notice, then smiled and said: "I have to go find something to eat, Ah Huaniang, I will see you later."

Ah Huaniang waved her hand and said, "Go ahead, go ahead. My child ran out early in the morning and is afraid that he won't be able to find anything to eat. If you go there late, you won't be able to find anything!"

Su Xiaoxiao said yes, waved to Ahua Niang, and ran away.

Seeing this, Ahua Niang sighed, held her stomach, and continued to sit down at the door.

Now that there is nothing to eat, most people can only bask in the sun at the door and remain still to last longer.
