The Farmer s Eldest Daughter Has a Spatial Pocket - Chapter 3

I’m Hungry

When Gu Yundong woke up again, she was on Madam Yang’s back. She could hear her panting as she walked.

Madam Yang was very thin and weak. Gu Yundong could clearly feel her shoulders shaking, as if they would break if she was not careful.

“Dongdong, Dongdong, you’re awake?” Perhaps sensing movement, Madam Yang turned her head slightly and said happily.

Only then did Gu Yundong realize that there was still a basket hanging in front of Madam Yang. The little girl in the basket was still sleeping soundly and had yet to wake up.

Gu Yunshu also heard the sound and hurriedly looked up. “Eldest Sister, you’re awake? Hang in there a little longer. We’ll be there soon.”

“Where are we going?” Gu Yundong asked hoarsely.

The path they were on was a little narrow, and there were not many people on the road. The sky was already dark, so they had to find a place to spend the night.

“We’re going back. We’re going to the village we went to last night to stay for the night. That place is a little closer.” Gu Yunshu raised his head, wiped his face, and tried his best to smile. This decision was made by him, and he was actually very nervous. He did not know if it was right.

After all, compared to the unknown direction in front of him, he could only return to the place he recognized. Big Sister needed to rest, and he was very afraid.

Only then did Gu Yundong realize that there was a mark on his neck. Coupled with his huge head, it was especially shocking.

Her face darkened slightly. “Where’s Gu Dahe?”

“He stole Eldest Sister’s money and ran away.” Gu Yunshu finally couldn’t hold it in anymore. He couldn’t maintain his smile and lowered his head to wipe his tears. “Yunshu is useless. I didn’t protect Eldest Sister well or protect the money. I’m sorry.”

Gu Yundong wanted to tell him not to cry. She had been in the apocalypse for a year and had long understood that tears were the most useless thing. If the money was gone, so be it. What was the use of crying? When there was a chance later, she would make him pay back ten times or a hundred times. What was the big deal?

However, she quickly reacted. This was not the apocalypse, and Gu Yunshu was not a stranger. He was her younger brother.

However, she did not know how to comfort others. Fortunately, Madam Yang’s voice quickly sounded in her ears. “Ah Shu, don’t cry. It’s your second uncle who’s bad. We’ll ignore him in the future. Mother dotes on you.”

Gu Yunshu was comforted. He sniffled hard. “I won’t cry. I’m the only man here. Don’t cry.” As he spoke, he hugged the bag of potatoes in his arms and puffed out his small chest.

Gu Yundong was speechless.

Fortunately, they arrived at the village quickly. The village was quiet and almost empty. Everyone was either dead or fleeing, looking for a place to survive.

Gu Yunshu originally wanted to go to the house they had gone to yesterday, but he was stopped by Gu Yundong. In the end, they chose a house a little away from the center of the village. The place was not big, but it was remote and quiet. There were only two families beside it.

When they entered the house, Madam Yang carefully put Gu Yundong down.

Gu Yundong’s strength had slowly recovered, but she was still a little dizzy from the blow to her head.

Gu Yunshu carefully placed the potatoes in front of her and looked up. “Eldest Sister, rest first. I’ll go find some firewood.”

He was very sensible. When he spoke to Gu Yundong, he tried his best to smile so that she would not worry.

With that, he turned around and went to look for the woodshed. Gu Yundong looked at his back view and was worried that his head would snap at any moment.

After a while, he came in with two thin bundles of firewood and called out to Madam Yang, “Mother, help me close the window.”

“Okay.” Madam Yang was feeding Gu Yunke water from a bamboo jar. The little girl swallowed unconsciously and finally reacted.

After the windows and door was closed, Gu Yunshu began to roast potatoes.

Gu Yundong watched as he took out… two small potatoes from the cloth bag. He skewered them while treating them very preciously and placed them on the firewood to rotate. When it was about time, he handed one to her.

As for the other one, he carefully peeled off the skin and delivered it to Gu Yunke’s mouth.

Then, he extinguished the fire.

Gu Yundong looked at the small potatoes in her hand and then at Gu Yunshu and Madam Yang, who clearly did not intend to eat them. “What about yours?”

“Elder Sister, eat. I’m not hungry.” Although he said that, his eyes could not help but drift to the potatoes. Then, he immediately lowered his head.

Madam Yang was much more direct. She swallowed hard. “…I’m hungry.”
