There were four or five bowls and chopsticks in Duan Li's house. She took three bowls and filled them with porridge from the pot. Then, she took a pair of chopsticks and filled the bowls for Yun Jian and Xiao Yunzhu. After that, she took the bowls back and forth and passed them to Yun Jian and Xiao Yunzhu.
Then, Duan Li poured a bowl for her younger sister.
Duan Ya didn't make a sound. She was a little afraid of Yun Jian and the others. Because of her natural fear of strangers, she didn't say a word until the end.
Duan Li passed the bowl to her, and Duan Ya picked up the bowl and chopsticks. Her small hands picked up the chopsticks rather clumsily. She stirred the porridge furiously and wolfed it down.
Yun Jian felt a little sad seeing this, but under Duan Li's expectant gaze, Yun Jian still picked up the bowl and swallowed all the porridge in it.
"It's delicious!" Xiao Yunzhu gave Duan Li a thumbs up and smiled at her after he finished eating.
Xiao Yunzhu didn't think that the living conditions here were too bad for him to stay, and he wouldn't use all sorts of excuses to refuse to stay for dinner because of the poor living conditions.
In fact, when Yun Jian found Xiao Yunzhu in her previous life, Xiao Yunzhu was in the orphanage at that time.
Although the orphanage was maintained by a charity organization, it was useless if there wasn't enough money to donate. This group of orphaned children could only sleep in the worst places and barely eat their fill.
Xiao Yunzhu had gone through such a hard life, and he could understand that. Therefore, he wouldn't despise Duan Li's family.
Xiao Yunzhu's praise made Duan Li smile happily. She looked at Xiao Yunzhu and said to Xiao Yunzhu, "Eat more then, I'll get more for you when you finish!"
"What about you? Chestnut, you haven't eaten yet! "Yun Zhu asked when he saw that Duan Li had yet to pick up her bowl after he was done with the porridge.
"I'm fine. I'm not hungry. You should eat more." Duan Li shook her head and smiled at Xiao Yunzhu.
Her family could only cook so much rice a day. If she cooked too much and her father found out, he would beat her and her sister again and say that they were greedy.
What's more, she had added the only side dish they had today — vegetables.
However, she didn't add much. Duan Li knew that if their father came back and saw that there were fewer vegetables, he would definitely beat them again.
"No, if you don't eat, then I won't eat either!" Xiao Yunzhu's attitude was very firm.
Duan Li was suddenly touched. She picked up Xiao Yunzhu's bowl and ran to get him a bowl of porridge. Then, as she walked, she said, "Okay, then you can have half and I'll have half!"
After saying that, Duan Li filled Xiao Yunzhu's bowl with half a bowl of rice and poured another half for herself.
Duan Li finally picked up the bowl to eat the porridge.
Yun Jian also smiled.
Duan Li had only taken two mouthfuls of porridge when she heard footsteps coming from downstairs.
Duan Li's heart skipped a beat.
Yun Jian frowned.
Just then, a rather handsome man in his thirties walked in through the open door. Behind this man was a rich woman in her forties or fifties, who was decked out in gold and silver.
"Dad …" Duan Li didn't expect her father to come back. She was so scared that the bowl in her hand slipped and fell to the ground, and the sound of the bowl breaking could be heard.
The man in the lead was quite handsome, and he looked 50% similar to Duan Li and Duan Ya. When she saw the man, Duan Ya, who was sitting on the bed, was so scared that she curled up into a ball.
Duan Li's father was called Duan Shi.
Duan Shi looked decent, and it wasn't hard to tell that he was a rather handsome man when he was young. However, at the moment, he looked a little dispirited, especially when he saw Duan Li and Duan Ya. His brows were tightly knitted together.
When he saw Yun Jian and Xiao Yunzhu, Duan Shi didn't even ask anything and yelled at Duan Li, "Duan Li! Didn't I tell you that you're not allowed to bring outsiders to our house? And how dare you break our bowl, do you want to die?! "
