Chapter 2 Hungry

I don't know whether the eunuch would be cursed to death. She was about to starve to death.

Chen Hui didn't kick the door open, but instead made the soles of her feet hurt, and her forehead trembled, as if even her wounds were shaken open.

She didn't dare to cover her wounds, so she could only limp back. The yard was quiet, which showed that she had been too worried before, and there was no one else here except her - it was really a "secret" place.

Chen Hui had no choice but to go back to the house first, follow the game routine, touched the room one by one, and tried to find some supplies, but naturally she got nothing and didn't even have any grains of rice.

Chen Hui, who was lying on the bed, recalled her miserable appearance of bandages wrapped around her head, and felt that if she went to beg, she would definitely win the sympathy of a group of people and give her some food.

Outside was a bright and open sunny sky, but Chen Hui felt very tired due to her injuries and walking around. Even though her stomach was still hungry, she could not resist her sleepiness. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.

When he woke up again, the sky was getting dark outside. Chen Hui sat up and rubbed her hungry but still hungry stomach, wondering if the dead eunuch really wanted to starve herself to death.

No matter how she thought, she thought he might have done such a thing. She had been seeking death once. If he really cared about her life and death, he just wanted to punish her for "hunger", he shouldn't have sent anyone to see her! He obviously didn't care whether she died or not. As for whether she starved to death or committed suicide, it didn't matter! After all, she was still a forced stolen girl? I don't know if she cherished her a little bit? Her body is pretty good, and it's so pleasing to the eyes.

Chen Hui was so hungry that she was dizzy and didn't know what she was thinking about. If the eunuch came to see her again, she would definitely be able to kneel at his feet and sing to conquer. Now she just wants to have a bite of food! It would be fine if she had nothing to eat, why didn't she even give her saliva!

Chen Hui threw herself back to the bed with a thud. She felt that she was about to die. If she could go back to her warm home to starve to death, she wouldn't mind suffering this hardship. I wonder if her parents noticed that she was missing. Are they worried and missed her very much...

When Chen Hui was in a daze and was about to fall asleep again, her ears suddenly moved, as if something sounded attracted her attention.

Someone pushed open the door of the house and walked in.

Chen Hui suddenly stared at her with wide eyes. She was a thin girl, who was about in her early 10 years old. She was walking in carefully. When she met Chen Hui's sudden wide eyes, she was so scared that she shivered and almost cried.

At this moment, Chen Hui stretched out her limbs and lay on the bed, with a white cloth wrapped around her forehead, her face pale and haggard, and her eyes widened. She looked like a dead body, and she was afraid of seeing it.

Chen Hui didn't know what she looked like in the eyes of others at the moment. When she saw someone coming, she hurriedly said, "Do you have any food?"

The little girl was already so scared that she would not fall down by holding the door frame. Now, when she heard this sound that seemed more gloomy because she was so angry that she shook her body. She didn't hear what Chen Hui said clearly, and her eyes fainted.

Chen Hui struggled to get up and saw the thin and skinny girl lying straight on the ground, motionless.

Chen Hui: "..." Is it her or this little girl who wants to become a starving ghost?!

The thin little body in front of me looked like there was only a few taels of flesh. If Chen Hui could easily help her up, but at this moment, she could not protect herself and naturally couldn't care about others. She could only look at the little girl with a glance and shouted from time to time: "Little girl... wake up... I'm almost thirsty and thirsty, do you know?"

The little girl lying on the ground didn't feel unconscious for a long time. When she woke up, she heard the intermittent terrifying sound in her ears. She almost fainted again. Chen Hui, who was still holding on, saw her moving and called her in surprise. She saw Chen Hui's eyes that were as if she had seen food. She realized that the girl was just looking bad, and her sleeping posture was a little worse, and she was not dead. Then she relaxed and got up and walked to the bed.

"Miss Chen..." the little girl whispered, "I'm called Xiao Zhu, I'm here to serve the girl..."

"Small strip?" Chen Hui said, "a salted fish strip?"

The little girl looked at Chen Hui in confusion and said for a while: "I... I don't know, my mother said it was the one who broom..."

Chen Hui said oh, realizing that the literacy rate in this era is not high, and she is a high-end talent after recognizing words. The pale and thin little girl in front of her obviously could not have studied.

After saying a few words, he became more and more thirsty in his mouth, Chen Hui said aggrievedly: "I want to drink water."

Xiao Xia nodded: "Should you wait, I will go and take it now!"

Seeing that the other party was willing to get water for him, Chen Hui hurriedly added: "I want to eat more!" Her tone was even more pitiful.

This time, a look of embarrassment appeared on Xiao Hu's face. She thought she secretly glanced at Chen Hui and whispered: "Sister Ziyu said, "The master said that the girl will be hungry for three days..."

Zi Yu? Is that girl who looked arrogant in pink and purple clothes before?

"Xiao Hu, look at me." Chen Hui's face was serious.

Xiao Hu looked at her blankly.

Chen Hui said: "I have a big hole in my head. I haven't eaten anything yesterday until now. I'm so hungry that I'm starting to eat myself. If I don't replenish some food, I'll die to you to see if you know how to cut it?"

Xiao Xia widened her eyes when she heard the word "death". She didn't understand Chen Hui's speaking style and humor. She just thought she was threatening herself by committing suicide and said hurriedly: "Miss Chen, don't be overwhelmed!"

Chen Hui said patiently: "I just want to eat when I think about it, do you understand?"

Xiao Hu thought about it and understood what Chen Hui meant. He fell in fear and was embarrassed and floated up again: "But what Sister Ziyu said, "If you are a servant..."

Chen Hui said softly: "Xiao Hu, don't worry, if you don't say it, I won't say it, no one will know... Please, you can't see me starve to death, right? Don't say it for three days, I can't hold on tonight... As long as you have stuttering, I won't pick on it, please..."

Soon Chen Hui slapped herself in the face.

After Xiao Hu softened his heart and promised that Chen Hui would bring her food, Chen Hui was very excited. Xiao Hu was sent in to "serve" her, but she had no freedom to go in and out. At dinner time, someone brought the key to take Xiao Hu out and waited for her to finish her meal before letting her come back. When she came back, she brought back a pot of water.

Chen Hui was lying on the bed and didn't see whether the man or woman holding the key. Even though there was no third person in the yard, Xiao Hu still closed the door as soon as he entered the room, secretly like a private lover, taking out a steamed bun with a handkerchief from his arms.

Chen Hui's eyes were so hungry that she was green. She couldn't wait to take it with her handful of steamed buns and took a big bite.

...It's so unpalatable.

The steamed bun smaller than her palm is yellow, with a surface not smooth, but it is bumpy and as if it has not fermented well. No, the steamed bun is so strong that it has not fermented at all, right?

Chen Hui thought that she was used to being in the city and could not adapt to the mountain life. Everything in this era was worse than being thrown into the mountain and playing in the wild. She had at least one day to go back, but when she got here...

Seeing Chen Hui's expression that seemed sad and desperate, Xiao Hu said embarrassedly: "Girl... I, I can't get any other food..."

Chen Hui suddenly realized that this little yellow steamed bun should be Xiao Jia’s supper, so she specially kept it for her to eat. She was immediately moved. Even her parents would not save her own rations. They would only grab the delicious food she bought, and then throw her a hundred-dollar bill for her to buy it herself.

At this moment, the unpalatable steamed bun seemed to be coated with a layer of emotion, and the taste seemed to be much more delicious. Chen Hui ate all the steamed buns in a bite by bit with boiled water, and smiled gratefully to Xiao Zai: "Thank you Xiao Zai, I remember this kindness of the meal. If I have a prosperous day in the future, I promise you will follow me to heaven!"

Xiao Hu's expression was a bit strange. She knew that Miss Chen was grateful to her, but she couldn't understand the meaning of "Chicken and Dog Ascension", but only knew what "Ascendance" meant. She wanted to say that she didn't want to die so early, but she felt that she probably had a wrong listen.

Chen Hui didn't pay attention to Xiao Hu's expression, but just lay relaxed on the bed. A steamed bun and a stomach of water could only make her eat one-third full, but she couldn't die of starvation.

As long as she can eat well after these three days, then why should she bear it?

——Chen Hui found out that she was too early to speak again.

Thanks to Xiao Hu's kindness, Chen Hui was hungry every day. She didn't forget to chat with Xiao Hu and got close to her. She knew that Xiao Hu was the lowest-level maid in the kitchen, and anyone could call her around. According to Xiao Hu, that sister Zi Yu was sent by Butler Li to the Meiyuan Courtyard - Yes, Chen Hui lives in this place called this unlucky name - to take care of her daily life, but for some reason, Zi Yu asked Xiao Hu to come to Meiyuan for her, and Butler Li agreed. Xiao Hu vaguely understood, and Chen Hui naturally knew even more. Didn't Zi Yu just see that she offended the dead eunuch and felt that she had no hope of turning over in her life, so she would find a way to transfer her away and not bother to pay attention to her?

When Xiao Zai said this, Chen Hui made up her mind that she would definitely let Zi Yu understand one truth: If you ignore me today, I will make you unable to stand up tomorrow! At that time, she will take Xiao Zai to live a good life and envy that Zi Yu to death!

It has been three years since Xiaozhao arrived in Li's mansion. His previous owner's house was ruined and he sold her. Before, she was sold by her biological mother at the age of six. Now she is thirteen years old, but because of her long-term malnutrition and small size, she looks only in her early 10 years old. She has been working in the kitchen and rarely wanders around before. She only knows that the owner of Li's mansion is a father-in-law. There is also a girl Jiang in the mansion. She is not a wife or a concubine. She has an unknown identity. Everyone calls her Miss Jiang, but the master loves her very much, so she thinks that she must be a fairy-like figure.

Xiao Hu knew very little, and it was basically useless to Chen Hui. She only knew the same surname as her Chen, and she knew nothing about her name and identity. However, compared her hands with Xiao Hu, Chen Hui thought that she was not a poor girl, otherwise her hands would not be so delicate and she had never done heavy work at first sight. Maybe she was a businessman's daughter, or maybe she was a small official. Seeing that Eunuch Li looked very powerful, I think he wouldn't be afraid as long as he was old to a certain level.

My stomach has never been filled, and Chen Hui is not very thoughtful. She just eats, sleeps and eats every day, saving her energy and rests her injuries.

On the fourth day, Chen Hui was waiting at the gate of the yard early in the morning. She thought that she would be liberated after these three days and could eat hot meals. But what surprised and angry was that she was waiting for small yellow steamed buns and porridge, which were given three meals a day, but it was not changed! She was angry and fed the pigs. This is why not just starve her to death!
