Gu Wenheng entrusted all their belongings to Li Cuicui, using the excuse of taking Jin Qianqian further away to search for wild vegetables.
Li Cuicui pursed her lips as she watched the young couple walk away. She wondered if they had already run out of food.
"Mother, let me see if there's any water left in Brother Qi's bamboo tube." Gu Yuanlei impatiently reached for it, but Li Cuicui swatted his hand away.
"Whether he does or not, it has nothing to do with you! What? You've already scammed your parents, and now you want to scam Brother Qi?"
Li Cuicui felt sick just looking at this son right now. The last few times they had found water, he had actually ignored her objections, sneaking and snatching their supplies to give to the Lan family. If her other sons hadn't saved some water for them, she and her husband might not have survived until now.
"Mother, don't say it so harshly. I'm just thirsty, so I want to borrow a little from Brother Qi first."
