Exile at the start? Milkball filming, hoarding billions of resources

Chapter 19 You better take care of the kids properly!

I had bad luck today and couldn't find an inn to stay in for the night. Luckily, I found a dilapidated temple not far away.

The burly man put Shen Yingying down, wiped the sweat from his face, and went to find a corner to rest.

Sun Xiao glanced at him and kicked him.

"I didn't expect you to still have the energy to help others. Looks like you haven't been working too hard lately."

"Since you have so much energy, you don't need to eat dinner tonight."

Upon hearing Sun Xiao's words, the surrounding prisoners became excited.

"That's great, he's so good at grabbing! Every time they hand out flatbread, he manages to snag one."

"If he doesn't come to steal it today, then we'll have food!"

"Sigh, even if he doesn't fight for it, we might not get a turn. I think we'll probably miss out on food again today."

The burly man didn't even raise his head, just squinted and took a nap.

The constables were exhausted after a long day, so hungry that their stomachs were practically sticking to their backs, and they didn't want to move at all.

"A bailiff said lazily."

"Whoever comes to help start the fire and cook, I'll give them a rough flatbread."

Upon hearing this, several people started arguing.

"I... I can cook."

"Sir, please don't listen to him. He used to be a spoiled brat. He can't even recognize all the vegetables, let alone cook. You can rest assured that I'm a good cook and you'll be amazed by how delicious it is!"

"My lord, my cooking is so-so, but I'm not greedy. I don't want a whole flatbread, just half will do. Half a flatbread will make you all very comfortable."

The lifeless prisoners racked their brains and used every trick in the book to try and get a chance at a simple pancake.

Hua Zhuyue seized the opportunity to speak.

"Sir, there's no one around here. Eating only coarse bread is too dry. Why don't we go find something to eat?"

"Yes, sir, let us go find something to eat ourselves."

"We understand that the food is expensive and limited in quantity, but right now we just want a chance to go out and find food. If you still don't give us that, it's not fair, is it?"

One prisoner after another started speaking, following Hua Zhuyue's lead, and the scene gradually became chaotic.

Several constables frowned upon seeing this.

"Alright, alright, alright, what are you yelling about! I didn't say you weren't allowed to go find food."

Sun Xiao spoke up.

"You can find food, but you must vouch for each other and guarantee that the other will definitely come back. Whoever's voucher fails to return, I will chop off their head."

As soon as Sun Xiao said that, the people who had just been clamoring to go out and find food fell silent.

In this world, the one thing you absolutely cannot gamble on is people's hearts; who would dare to tie their own head to someone else's waist?

That's no joke!

At this moment, the burly man stood up.

"I need to go out and find something to eat. Who will vouch for me?"

Everyone looked at the burly man and fell silent.

Just then, Hua Zhuyue stood up.

"I am willing to vouch for this brave man."

Sun Xiao had also heard about what happened last night.

He glanced at the bruises on the burly man's face, then at Hua Zhuyue, and burst out laughing.

Are the Shen family members truly stupid or just pretending?

They beat this person up yesterday, and today they're vouching for him.

Aren't you afraid that this person will just walk away and take revenge?

Actually, the practice of mutual guarantees is not in accordance with the rules, but Sun Xiaotai wanted to take this opportunity to kill the Shen family.

He rolled his eyes and readily agreed.

"sure!"

"However... this person looks like he knows martial arts. If he gets away, he might harm many people."

"Using your life as a guarantor for him isn't enough!"

"If you truly want to vouch for him, then the entire Shen family should vouch for him together!"

"If he escapes, your entire Shen family will be executed!"

Upon hearing this, Wan Zhenzhen immediately became anxious, turned to look at Hua Zhuyue, and spoke excitedly.

"Mother, please don't agree."

"What if he tries to take this opportunity to retaliate against us?"

Hua Zhuyue pushed Wan Zhenzhen's hand away and said loudly.

"Okay, no problem!"

"I have one more condition."

"Since we, the entire Shen family, are guaranteeing this brave man's safety with our lives, could a few of us also go out to find some food?"

Sun Xiao pulled at the whip in his hand.

"So much trouble!"

"I'm only giving you half an hour. If you don't return by then, you will all die."

Wan Zhenzhen, holding Shen Yingying's hand, followed Hua Zhuyue around grumbling in dissatisfaction.

"Mother, you're so old, why are you still so impulsive!"

"How could I possibly agree to something like that!"

"You're asking for it, fine, but why drag me and the child into this for no reason?"

Hua Zhuyue was so annoyed by Wan Zhenzhen that she randomly pointed in a direction.

"You and Yingying go look over there, we'll meet up here in a bit."

Wan Zhenzhen wanted to say something more, but Qin Su stopped her, refusing to let her continue following.

Holding her grandmother's hand in one hand and her brother's hand in the other, Shen Zhaoning hurried forward, trying to leave Wan Zhenzhen behind.

Shen Zhaoning ran quite a distance before stopping.

She tilted her head back and took a deep breath.

"Finally, some peace and quiet. Oh my god, my aunt was so terrifying."

Shen Zhaoning released Hua Zhuyue and Shen Yu's hands and stood opposite them.

"I'm going to find something to eat now, Grandma, Brother. Is there anything you particularly want to eat?"

Hua Zhuyue thought for a moment.

"It's freezing cold in the mornings and evenings, and unbearably hot during the day. It would be great if we could get something warm to keep us cozy."

When it comes to food, Shen Yu doesn't maintain any decorum.

What the hell is "demeanor"?

All he knows is to serve the food.

"Meat, I want to eat meat."

Shen Zhaoning nodded.

"I understand, I'll go get the meat right away!"

Time was limited, and Shen Zhaoning dared not delay, so she hurriedly started running.

With a flash of white light, she appeared in a secluded alley.

She emerged from the alley and began trying to figure out where the meat was sold.

Unexpectedly, I ran into Cheng Qian as soon as I came out.

A man, holding a stack of papers, cursed at Cheng Qian.

"All you do all day is write this garbage. Don't you realize how many years it's been since you last wrote a screenplay? Your stuff is outdated and nobody will read it."

"You've written so much garbage that you've neglected your own son, causing him to eat random things and get diarrhea!"

As the man spoke, he raised the paper in his hand and patted Cheng Qian's cheek.

The man didn't use much force, but the thick paper hit Cheng Qian's face with a loud thud.

Cheng Qian tilted her head and replied expressionlessly.

"His diarrhea is because your mother took him out to eat at a roadside stall, it has nothing to do with me."

The man gave a displeased, cold laugh.

"Well done, Cheng Qian, now you've learned to shirk responsibility! If you hadn't cooked such terrible food, would our son be eating street food?"

The man tugged at Cheng Qian's collar and sneered.

"I can tell you haven't been paying attention to your son at all. You haven't dressed up in so long, and now you're suddenly all dressed up and wearing makeup. What's wrong? You think I'm poor and want to go out and find a man, huh?"

"Don't think that you can look like a girl in her twenties just because you're wearing makeup. You're just a haggard old woman now. Who else would want you but me?"

"You'd better take care of the kids properly! If anything happens to our son, I'm divorcing you."
