MTL - Farming Space: The Lucky and Lovely Lady Come to Farm

Chapter 268 Skinny and Bones

Aunt Liu sighed and opened her mouth to ask about her mother's family, but seeing Tao'er's appearance, she decided to wait until she could take a breath before speaking.

Myolie was making the bed in the room upstairs. When she came downstairs, she saw Aunt Liu standing at the door of the kitchen waving to her, "Myolie, come quickly, your eldest sister is here."

Xing'er's eyes widened as she ran into the kitchen and saw a ragged woman with disheveled hair, dark, thin, and skinny, sitting on a small bench eating steamed buns.

Myolie couldn’t believe it, this was her eldest sister who was once a flower in every corner of the country.

 She looks even older and uglier than her mother.

She called out tentatively, "Sister--"

Taoer raised her head, tears welling up in her eyes, "Sister—"

The sisters couldn't help but cry holding their heads in each other's arms.

After crying for a while, Gu Fei brought a bowl of water to her and said, "Drink some water. Don't choke."

Taoer drank the water and stuffed the remaining steamed bun into her arms.

Gu Fei looked at her dumbfounded, "You've eaten everything, why are you carrying it around?"

 “I’ll take it to the rich and noble to eat later.” This is a white-flour steamed bun.

Gu Fei smiled and said: "Just eat, there are still some here, I will bring some to my brother-in-law later."

　　Taoer couldn't sit still when talking about her brother-in-law, "I have to go quickly. I begged for some food yesterday. All the wealth and honor were given to me. I haven't eaten anything myself. If I don't eat, he will starve to death."

Gu Fei said: "Xing'er, you and your eldest sister go to pick up your brother-in-law and call a mule cart."

She casually gave Xing'er a handful of copper coins, and filled a bowl of porridge for Tao'er to hold.

Xing'er ran out to call for a carriage, and just in time Gu Sanlang arrived driving a mule cart.

Tao'er and Xing'er got into the car, and Gu Sanlang drove to the west gate.

Tao'er ate a bowl of porridge and two steamed buns, and gained some strength. She asked Xing'er, "Where are my parents?"

Myolie said, "My father is driving a cart in Ping'an City every day, and my mother is at home cooking, taking care of grandma, and taking care of the baby."

“I’ll pick up my brother-in-law soon and I’ll take you back.”

 Not long after, we arrived at a ruined temple outside the west city gate.

The ruined temple didn't even have a door, and only half of the main hall was left. In one corner of the main hall, there was straw, and on it lay an unkempt man who didn't know how to live or die.

Tao'er rushed over and said, "Fugui, get rich soon. There is food to eat. I have found my mother's family."

Fugui's eyelids opened a crack, Tao'er quickly put the porridge bowl over, Fugui drank weakly, and after a while, he drank a large bowl of porridge cleanly.

Tao'er broke the buns again and fed him bit by bit.

Seeing Fugui eating a steamed bun, Xing'er said, "Sister, get your brother-in-law into the car first. It will be more comfortable to lie down when you get home."

Gu Sanlang came over and carried Fugui on his back to the car. Several people got on the car, and Gu Sanlang drove the car towards the south city gate.

 In more than half an hour, we arrived at Zhuangzi.

 After drinking porridge and eating steamed buns, Fugui gained some strength and struggled to get out of the car.

Tao'er looked at the Zhuangzi with white walls and black tiles and couldn't believe her eyes, "Dad and mom, they live here?"

Such a nice house?

Xing'er nodded: "Everyone lives here. This is Mr. Su's village. I've lent it to everyone."

Sanlang supported Fugui as he walked in, while Taoer supported Fugui on the other side. After entering the second door, they saw a woman sitting by a wooden basin in the yard, rubbing her clothes.

Taoer suddenly shouted when she saw Qian, "Mother--"

Mr. Qian raised her head and saw Tao'er, and was so shocked that all the clothes in her hands fell off, "Oh my God, Tao'er, why are you like this!"
