Therefore, after hearing Aunt Gao's words, Feng Wu's stomach growled before she could say anything.
Feng Wu didn't know what to say.
Looking at Feng Wu, Aunt Four smiled and said, "Eat it while it's hot. It's not easy to make it soft. If you don't eat it, it'll get hard again. It'll be as hard as a rock and it'll be a waste of your teeth."
Feng Wu nodded at her, then lowered her head to eat the pancake.
Feng Wu was really hungry, so she ate quickly. Before she knew it, she had finished the two pancakes and drank up the water in the bamboo tube.
Only then did she realize that she was starving after all the running and the injuries she had sustained. What a mess. Feng Wu smiled bitterly inwardly.
Just then, Feng Wu, with her sensitive ears, heard a lot of whispers.
Some were from men, and some were from women.
"The little beggar doesn't look like she's infected like my mother said. Infected people don't have such a good appetite. She looks like she could eat a whole cow! "
"Those are pancakes made of white flour. Of course they're delicious. I can eat a pancake the size of a cow in one go too!"
"Aunt Four is so generous. Where did she get the pancakes? We've been eating porridge with wild vegetables! "
"That's right. Why didn't she think of us when she had the pancakes? Why did she give them to an outsider?! "
"Even if it's not enough for us adults, there's still a bunch of little ones. It'll be good for everyone to have a taste!
…
All kinds of voices went on and Feng Wu could see that Aunt Four sitting in front of her didn't look very happy.
What made her even more speechless was that they were arguing so much over just two pancakes. Was this world still the same continent that she knew?
She turned to look at the others and said coldly, "These white bread pancakes are not from the public. My maiden family risked their lives to send them here for Xiaoshu and Sanya. There are only a few of them. Is there any problem with me giving them to this lady?"
"You all know that Sanya and Xiaoshu were almost drowned today. But the benefactor left after saving them, so we didn't have a chance to thank him. So, we happened to meet this lady and saved her life. We should repay the benefactor for saving our lives. Can't we do that?"
"If you really want to eat it, ask your family to give it to you!" Fourth Aunt's face was cold as she glanced at the people around her.
Under Fourth Aunt's gaze, many people turned their heads away. But looking at them, they were still muttering in their hearts.
Feng Wu was a little confused. What was going on with the Southern Yan Kingdom?
Feng Wu was very confused, so she asked Aunt Four.
Aunt Four looked at Feng Wu in bewilderment. "You didn't know?!"
Feng Wu smiled bitterly and could only make up an excuse. She told them that she had been sick in the cave and had no idea what was going on outside.
"You've been sick for a long time, then." Aunt Four gave Feng Wu a sympathetic look and smiled wryly. "Southern Yan is in chaos, both because of the shortage of soldiers and the plague."
Feng Wu asked, "The shortage of soldiers? The plague? "
Aunt Four nodded solemnly. "I don't want to talk about it. My husband will explain it to you later. As for the plague …"
Tears welled up in Aunt Four's eyes at the mention of the plague.
She wasn't the only one. Everyone else's eyes reddened as well. No one cared about the two white bread pancakes anymore, and they all went back to their work in silence.
