The sky was completely dark, and every household was filled with smoke, but none of them rose for him.

   "Brother Jing Hong..." A crisp young voice came from the side.

  Tang Jinghong turned his head and saw that it was Chu Qi. The eight or nine-year-old boy waved to him energetically.

   "Brother Jing Hong, it's getting dark, why are you wandering outside?"

   "I'm bored at home, I'll go out for a walk."

  Chu Qi is not a child, he knows everything, he must have been kicked out by his stepmother.

  Thinking of this, he felt a pang of sympathy, "Brother Jing Hong, come with me to my house, my house is about to eat, please eat."

  Tang Jinghong refused, not familiar with it, how can I go to someone's house for dinner, "No, I'll go home after a while."

  Chu Qi knew that Tang Jinghong was embarrassed, but seeing him homeless, he really sympathized, "Brother Jinghong..."

  Tang Jinghong interrupted Chu Qi, with a concerned tone, "Go home quickly, if it's late, your parents should be worried."

  Chu Qi took a few glances at Tang Jinghong and left helplessly.

  Brother Jing Hong is so pitiful. If his mother hadn't died, he would definitely not have been kicked out of the house.

  ...

  Chu Qingzhi's family is setting up a meal.

  A whole chicken and a whole rabbit, Chu Qingzhi cooked them into dishes. There are so many people in the family, it is not enough to eat if they don't finish cooking.

   When Mrs. Li came back, she was surprised to smell the aroma coming from the kitchen.

   On the one hand, she was surprised that Chu Qingzhi could cook, and on the other hand, she was surprised that it tasted like meat. She walked quickly into the main room, and then saw two pots of meat. However, she was not very happy, but was terrified.

  The rest of the Chu family kept drooling, and there was meat to eat, as if they were dreaming.

  Mr. Li asked cautiously, "Qingzhi, where did you get the chicken and rabbit?" Don't just catch others and eat them?

   "I borrowed it from someone..." Chu Qingzhi told everyone about meeting Tang Jinghong at the foot of the mountain.

Hearing this, Mrs. Li breathed a sigh of relief, "Qingzhi, the mountains are dangerous, don't go, mother still has some money here, you can take it to Jinghong tomorrow, it's considered a purchase." The chicken and the rabbit have already been killed , there is no way to pay it back, buy it with money, and treat it as a celebration of Qingzhi's return home.

  Chu Qingzhi was very surprised. Her impression of Li Shi changed a lot. For such a poor family, Li Shi should value money very much. I didn't expect to be so reasonable, "Mother..."

   Her words were interrupted by Chu Qi, "Mother, Brother Jing Hong was kicked out by his stepmother, we borrowed his prey, why don't we let him come to our house for dinner?"

  Ms. Li frowned, why Zhang Xiuqin was so over the top, "Chu Rong, go and call Jing Hong to eat, today's meal is rich, enough for one more person."

  Chu Rong always listened to what Li said, and said, "I'll go right away."

  The elders came forward, but they refused, so Tang Jinghong agreed.

   Seeing Tang Jinghong walking into the house, Mrs. Li immediately warmly invited him to take a seat, "Jinghong, sit down quickly, it will open soon."

   Tang Jinghong thought that he would hunt some prey tomorrow to thank them. With this in mind, he sat down and said, "Thank you Aunt Chu, Uncle Chu."

  Chu Qi sat next to Tang Jinghong, "Brother Jinghong, this is the dish made by my fifth sister, it looks delicious."

  Tang Jinghong glanced at Chu Qingzhi unexpectedly, he didn't expect the food cooked by the little girl to be so delicious, "Your Fifth Sister is very good."

  Chu Qi smiled. He doesn't know Fifth Sister very well yet, but she must be very powerful.

  There are many people in the family, and there are two tables for serving meals, one big and one small, but the meals on them are the same.

  The elders sit at the big table, and the younger ones sit at the small table. After taking their seats, they start eating.

  Chu Qingzhi was already so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back, holding the rice bowl, she didn't care about anything, and ate big mouthfuls.

  She didn't notice, the others were eating slowly, this kind of meat can only be eaten once every few months, today's meal is considered very luxurious.

  Chu Qingzhi is also the one who cooks. If someone else cooks this way, Mrs. Li will definitely have to talk about it and be more frugal.

   To Chu Qingzhi, she was reluctant to say it.

  Qing Zhi grew up in a wealthy family and ate expensive meals. They must have wronged her with their simple food.

  She still doesn't know that Chu Qingzhi cooked most of the rice, if she knew, she would definitely not be able to help but say something.

  Tang Jinghong ate in silence, thinking to himself, he didn't expect the little girl's cooking skills to be so good, the rabbit meat and chicken were delicious and delicious, comparable to the chefs in the capital.

  Chu Qingzhi ate two bowls of rice and finally filled her stomach.

  At the adoptive parents' house, the adoptive mother is very nice to Xiao Qingzhi in front of everyone, but behind the scenes, why is she tormenting Shu Xin? Otherwise, how could she be so thin?

   As for having a full meal, it is only when the whole family eats together, but this is rarely the case. Most of the time, Xiao Qingzhi is not full.

  Now she is possessed by Xiao Qingzhi's body, feeling Xiao Qingzhi's desire to be full, and she can't help being affected.

  Finally, everyone finished all the dishes.

   Tang Jinghong helped to pack the dishes and clean the house. After everything was done, he left. "Thank you, Uncle Chu and Aunt Chu, for your hospitality."

  Chu Rong sent Tang Jinghong to the door, "Jinghong, go slowly."

While washing the dishes, Mrs. Li found out that Chu Qingzhi had cooked most of the rice, and her heart ached. She planned to eat the rice for three days, but she ate it all, and it would only make everyone unhappy, so She silently decided not to let Qing Zhi into the kitchen in the future.

   Mrs. Li opened the flour jar to have a look. Seeing that the flour was still there, she breathed a sigh of relief, "We will have to cut down on food and clothing in the next few days."

  Chu Er secretly thought that in the next few days, he could only miss the delicious food he ate today.

  The conversation between the two fell into Chu Qingzhi's ears word for word, and her ears moved. Is it what she understood to mean saving food and clothing?

   It's no wonder that there is a lot of food, but there are many people and heavy taxes. There is not much food in storage. It is difficult to feed the stomach by farming alone.

  I have to think of a way to change the status quo, at least eat my stomach first.
