Chapter 52: Who Takes Advantage of Whom

“Sister Yundong.” Her voice was still a little loud.


Gu Yundong could not help but frown. He put down his pen in frustration and asked loudly, “What’s the matter?”


“It’s getting late. My mother said that if you want to cook dinner, 1 should help you.” Yes, help her by telling her where to fetch the firewood and water.


Gu Yundong looked at the sky. It was already 4 pm. It was still too early for her.


In addition, she had yet to finish painting. If it was any later, the sky would turn dark. Now that there were no electric lights, the oil lamp was too dark, so she had to finish it while the sky was still bright.


Hence, she said to Chen Yulan, who was at the door, “We ate late at noon. We’re not hungry yet. You guys can cook first. We’ll eat later. 1 still have something to do first.”


As she spoke, she looked at Gu Yunshu and the other woman. The two children patted their stomachs. “I’m still full.”


When Chen Yulan heard this, she pursed her lips and left.


Madam Fang was watering the vegetables in the courtyard. Seeing her come out angrily, she could not help but ask, “What happened?”


“She said she’s not hungry yet.” Chen Yulan snorted. “They must have eaten buns at noon. I smelled it when I walked past their window. They must have eaten a lot of buns since they were so full. They don’t even know how to share the buns with the two of us. They really don’t know how to be human.”


As she spoke, she raised her head and asked Madam Fang, “Do you think she’s thinking of taking advantage of us, so she won’t cook? She’ll let the two children come over to beg when we eat?”


Madam Fang’s eyes flashed. “Now that you mention it, it makes sense. They fled here. 1 heard that those refugees have nothing to eat on the way. Even if they have money, they have nowhere to use it. They only ask others for food. Perhaps they all have the habit of using two children to take advantage.”


“So what do we do?”


“Let’s wait!! I want to see who’ll starve first. They have children.”


“Yes, if they ask us for a few dishes, we’ll let them pay. The price will be high. They have money.”


Gu Yundong did not know that although she was just a little late for dinner, the mother and daughter could come up with a scheme.


She was already at the finishing stage and drew for another hour. When the sky darkened and Madam Yang lit an oil lamp, she stopped.


She exhaled and rubbed her shoulders. She packed up the sketches and put them away before saying to them, “It’s getting late. We didn’t bring much food. There are still dumplings that we made at Auntie Ke’s house yesterday morning. How about we eat dumplings tonight?”


The dumplings had already been steamed, and the weather was relatively cool now. They would not turn bad even if they were kept for two days. Moreover, she had been hiding the dumplings in her space to preserve the freshness.


Actually, Madam Yang could cook. It was just that they had just arrived in an unfamiliar place. The mother and daughter were not as straightforward as Aunt Ke. Madam Yang would panic, so Gu Yundong did not let her out for the time being.


When they heard that they were going to eat dumplings, the three of them could not help but swallow their saliva.


Although they had already eaten dumplings twice at Aunt Ke’s house, they still wanted to eat them.


“I want to eat two bowls.” Gu Yunke said.


Gu Yundong took the dumplings and went out. Madam Yang helped her start the fire.


When they entered the kitchen, Gu Yundong looked at the cold environment and could not help but raise her eyebrows. Madam Fang and the rest had not cooked dinner?


At this moment, Chen Yulan had already run into Madam Fang’s house. She said excitedly to her mother, who was filling her stomach with date cake, “They finally can’t take it anymore and started to cook dinner..”
