Escape to Farmland

Chapter 4 Small Black Charcoal Head
"Heh~."

Xia Quan listened to the system's response without arguing with it.

With a slight movement of her mind, she got the water out and put some water in the bottle cap. She reached out to help the black charcoal-like child, and let the child in little by little.

"Sister? This is..."

After drinking two sips of sweet water, the child couldn't help but feel more refreshed.

He opened his eyes happily, and looked at his sister expectantly.

"Shh~~~"

Xia Quan put his index finger on his lips and made a silent movement, then took out one-fifth of a steamed bun, tore it off little by little and fed it to his mouth.

Give small bites of food and some water.

She didn't even need to check, and she knew that the child was just hungry and thirsty, and it would be fine if he fed him something to eat and drink some water.

Because this water is so precious, she didn't dare to waste it too much.

I only poured it down and washed a few of the fingers lightly, so that I can feed my younger brother hygienically.

Xia Quan just fed the child steamed buns and water at the same time. There was food in the stomach, and the child's spirit gradually improved.

Seeing that he was slowing down, she helped him up again, sat down against the wall, and handed over the leftover steamed buns.

Whispered: "Come on, eat slowly, don't choke."

"Sister, you... you eat, you eat too."

The child is very well-behaved. Although he was very hungry a long time ago and hadn't eaten at all at the moment, he didn't want to eat alone.

He stretched out his black, skinny little hand to push his sister's hand: "Don't be hungry."

Although the voice is weak, the tone is very firm.

"Hey, my sister has already eaten."

Xia Quan whispered to the child while looking around, "Eat quickly, don't let others see."

"Really...really?"

The child was still worried, "But... you said that before, but..."

"Stop rambling, just eat as you please."

Xia Quan was not in the mood to talk to the child here, she was worried that people from outside would come in at any time.

If they found that they had food on hand, I don't know what accidents would happen.

Having experienced the last days, she knows that when people are hungry, they can do anything.

What's more, the conversation she heard just now is still echoing in her mind.

Fortunately, the room where the siblings lived was broken, but it was a relatively independent space.

The room had no door, but a wall separated them from outsiders.

Apart from the Qiu family, there seemed to be many single fugitives outside.

"Sister, don't be angry, I'll eat, I'll eat right away."

Seeing that his sister was unhappy, the child didn't dare to delay any longer. He quickly took the steamed buns from his sister, turned his back and began to eat them carefully.

Not long after, the child turned around again, looking at Xia Quan with sparkling eyes.

A bright smile bloomed on the black face: "Sister, it's done."

Xia Quan saw that there was no trace of eating on the child's body or around his mouth.

Apparently, the escape these days has made him understand the hardships of the world and learn to hide himself.

There is a faint smell of wheat in the air, but fortunately, the ventilation here is good, and the smell will soon disappear.

"Continue to sleep, pretending to be weak."

Seeing that he was so excited that he wanted to get up, Xia Quan hurriedly told him in a low voice, "Don't let people find out that we have food."

The child was very obedient, nodded slightly and lay down again.

But he raised his hand and patted the tattered but clean clothes beside him: "Sister, I haven't finished eating, I can still eat when I'm hungry."

When the child speaks, his eyes are as bright as stars in the night sky, clear and full of hope.

"Okay, just hide it well."

Xia Quan didn't ask him to finish eating, after all, he was so hungry that if he ate too much at one time, he might not be able to bear it with his small body.

What's more, knowing how to hide food is a guarantee for his life, she has to encourage it.
