Apocalyptic Disasters: Carrying a bun and hoarding supplies novel Chapter 50

Bai Meiyue frowned when she saw that her mother was just as confused as she. She turned to look at the two kneeling boys and asked them tentatively, "Was it your mother who told you that if you eat meat, you will be sent away?"

Though Bai Meiyue had not lived with her mother and two brothers, she knew that it was impossible for her brothers or Yan Wanning to threaten these little kids and stop them from eating meat.

Bai Zhan loved his sons so much that he never stopped looking for them in the post-apocalyptic world and even died while searching for them. And doubting Bai Jixuan would be even more foolish, as her second brother couldn’t wait to dote on his nephews every second of his life.

The same could be said for Yan Wanning; her mother obviously loved Bai Qian Han and Bai Ji Que more than her life. So, how could she starve them?

Thus, the only one left was Fang Qing!

Bai Qian Han hesitated but after a while decided to come clean. Though his mother kept telling him that his aunt was not a good woman, Bai Qian Han couldn’t help but think otherwise.

After all, his aunt obviously treated him and his brother better than their mother. _{freewebnσvel.cѳm}

"Mom—Mom told us that if a family is letting their children eat meat, then they are thinking of selling them," Bai Qian Han confessed. "She told us that she gave us only vegetables and no meat because she loves us and doesn’t want to sell us. And only naughty children eat meat—she—she asked us to be good kids and eat only vegetables. And if we acted like naughty children, she would sell us to the landlord."

He paused and then softly added, "One time Jixue got greedy and took a bite of spicy and sweet pork belly that Mother cooked for Uncle, and she dragged Jixue to the black market to sell him."

Bai Jixue shivered when he heard the words of his brother; he was still quite traumatised because of that incident.

"Why didn’t you tell me this?!" Yan Wanning felt her heartache when she realised what kind of lies her daughter-in-law had fed to her grandsons. Thinking about how terrified her two grandsons might have been when Fang Qing dragged Bai Jixue to the black market, Yan Wanning felt furious.

Even Bai Zhan and Bai Jixuan were stunned.

"Your mother—she never let you eat meat?" Bai Zhan asked with a look of disbelief on his face. Then what about all that money she took from him on the pretext that she wanted to give a good life to their sons?

Bai Qian Han and Bai Jixuan shook their heads in response and Bai Zhan felt all the blood rush to his head.

His vision went black and he nearly passed out due to the sudden rush of anger.

"Brother!" Bai Jixuan reached out and caught Bai Zhan by his arm before he could fall on the floor.

Bai Meiyue also rushed forward and helped Bai Zhan.

The two siblings half dragged and half pulled Bai Zhan to the small couch, where they helped him sit down.
