Transmigration: From Dragon Princess To Pampered Granddaughter-Chapter 71 - I Let Her Go
71: Chapter 71 I Let Her Go
71 -71 I Let Her Go
However, what Li Chunhua is doing now is sowing seeds and picking corn, such light tasks that the pay she earns in a day is not enough for a child’s ration.
She was supposed to be enjoying a rarely given half-day break.
But she threw up everything she ate at noon today; lying in bed famished, her stomach hurt so much she couldn’t fall asleep, so she thought about going to the kitchen to find something to eat.
There was still a small piece of wild boar meat left on the stove.
As she neared the door and smelled it, she felt nauseous again and quickly retreated.
However, her stomach was growling from hunger, and she really wanted to eat something, so she thought of the large meat bun and beef jerky Helian Qiao had brought back.
The large meat bun had been locked away in the cupboard by her mother-in-law, so without any hope, she quietly snuck into her mother-in-law’s room.
Unexpectedly, the black cloth bag filled with canned beef was conspicuously on the bedside table!
She sneaked up to the bedside table like a thief.
When she opened the bag and saw that there were milk candies inside, her joy doubled.
These milk candies; her mother-in-law had only allowed them to taste one each, then locked the rest away.
She’d given several to that damn girl each day, while her Xiaobao could only watch longingly!
She even said it was that girl’s food, it would require her permission to give any to Xiaobao.
Phooey!
The girl is a financial burden!
Eating all the good food will probably shorten her life!
While Li Chunhua was seething on the inside, she swiftly pocketed the milk candies.
Although she wanted to take the entire bag, she did not dare.
After grabbing half of the milk candies, she took a pack of beef jerky and a can of beef.
Just then, she heard a cool voice: “This belongs to Guibao.”
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
Li Chunhua was startled.
Looking up, she found Gu Tingyun, who had apparently woken up sometime earlier, staring at her impassively.
She let out a sigh of relief: she thought that ravenous, wild girl had woken up!
“Shush, don’t wake Guibao,” she lowered her voice and said calmly, “Guibao’s little brother is hungry.
I am getting him something to eat.”
Although Li Chunhua felt slightly guilty, she figured that deceiving a naive city boy who’d never seen hunger would be easy.
She was also planning to bring Xiaobao back later to play with Director Gu’s son, so Xiaobao could earn something to eat from him.
Little did she know, Gu Tingyun sat up, his face stern, he said, “No, you can only take Guibao’s stuff with her permission.”
Out of respect for her as Xiaobao’s elder, he didn’t expose her act of stealing on the spot.
Li Chunhua was stunned, and then she declared boldly, “I am Guibao’s mother, I can take her things whenever I want.”
She could pretend she never gave birth to that girl, but that girl can’t deny she came from her womb.
She’s even the one who gave her life, what harm is there in taking just a little of her stuff?
At these words, a look of surprise appeared on Gu Tingyun’s face, “You’re Guibao’s mother?”
For the past few days, he had only heard her call for her grandparents, not her parents.
He thought that her parents were out of town working, or possibly deceased.
He never expected this woman to be Guibao’s mother.
This was because this woman was the most indifferent towards Xiaobao in the entire family.
Seeing that he seemed shocked, Li Chunhua suddenly had a cunning idea.
She put on a caring mother’s face and said, “Yes, I am her mother.
A child cannot eat too much of these things, so I’ll take them away for her first.”
