After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady-Chapter 492 - 226: Actually, You’ve Been Freeloading Off Me for Quite a While Now. _3

Yao Mingyue’s family wasn’t doing well either, even though her father had given all the compensation money to her and her mother.

But the family was still missing its economic pillar, so Liu Rushuang had to take the remaining money to desperately support the company.

During that time, Xu Musen had only a yuan or two of pocket money each day, and Yao Mingyue at most five or six yuan.

"But back then, you were starting to grow, but to save money, you could only eat some vegetables and rice, as well as free millet porridge. With just that little pocket money every day, you bought grilled sausages, and the first thing you did was to give it to me to eat..."

As Yao Mingyue spoke, those times were hard, but every time she thought about how Xu Musen had given her all his remaining favor back then, a sweet smile curved on her lips.

Xu Musen chewed on the grilled sausage in his mouth and looked at Yao Mingyue now, he also saw the little girl from the past.

Back then, Yao Mingyue’s life wasn’t exactly going too well.

From a well-off princess, she suddenly encountered the lowest point in her life, and her family began to live frugally.

She started buying new clothes less often and rarely ate her previously favorite pastries.

In school, there were many who wanted to pursue her. As long as Yao Mingyue was willing, many boys would give her pretty clothes, delicate pastries, and exquisite gifts. She could still be that dazzling princess.

But she didn’t. She never gave a second glance to any of the gifts from boys who wanted to woo her.

Except she never refused the dollar sausage from Xu Musen.

Even during life’s harshest moments.

Xu Musen hadn’t forgotten to give her his most diligent favor.

Similarly, Yao Mingyue had never given up her steadfast love for Xu Musen because of other people’s advances.

Xu Musen’s heart was repeatedly washed over by the waves of the past. Many things, when he thought of them now, were actually filled with romance that couldn’t be appreciated in their youth.

Yao Mingyue continued with a smile, "Back then, I wanted you to eat more meat, but you were sensitive and stubborn. If I spent money on pure meat sausages for you, you definitely wouldn’t have eaten them..."

Xu Musen knew his own temper back then, just like all boys who didn’t want to expose an embarrassed side in front of a girl they liked.

Every time he spent his last bit of pocket money to buy Yao Mingyue a starch sausage, even though he really craved it, he would claim he didn’t like to eat those things.

Especially back then, so much had happened in Xu Musen’s family. The classmates he used to play with were slowly unable to stay together, and even many gossiped about his family’s situation behind his back.

Human nature inherently fears the strong and bullies the weak.

Even due to some people’s mockery, Xu Musen had fought with others a few times. For the teenage Xu Musen, his self-esteem was both stubborn and fragile.

Especially in front of the girl he liked, he didn’t want to show an embarrassed side.

Yao Mingyue looked at him, reading all his thoughts from his eyes. She laughed and snatched away the starch sausage from his hand.

Just like the countless times she had snatched from him, the action was skilled and natural.

"So, I had to snatch your grilled sausages. The more unreasonably I acted, the more I seemed to like them, the faster that little bit of pride in your heart would fade. It would make you feel more comfortable accepting the things I got for you."

Yao Mingyue said with a light laugh, snatching the starch sausage from his hand and handing him the pure meat sausage that was in hers.

Just like many years ago...

"Stingy, can’t I have a bite?"

"This starch one is even tastier than my meat sausage, here, let’s trade."

"Humph, I’m full, help me eat the rest. If you waste food, I’ll have Auntie spank you!"

She didn’t even like starch sausages, but to let him have a bite of pure meat sausage, she had pretended to like them for so many years.

Yao Mingyue took a bite of the starch sausage, chewed a mouthful: "Hmm, indeed not very tasty, I still can’t get used to it."

She said, yet with a smile, she looked towards Xu Musen, "Someone said earlier that they would never eat off a woman in this lifetime, but you’ve already been eating for several years now~"

Xu Musen looked at her, then down at the fragrant pure meat sausage in his hand.

So, he had actually been eating her "soft rice" all this time?

Looking at Yao Mingyue’s expression at that moment, for the first time, Xu Musen felt no disgust for the term "eating soft rice" but instead felt warmth surging through him.

My unreasonable demands were to make you feel at ease...

Xu Musen gradually realized that he might not have fully understood his childhood sweetheart, his nominally adopted sister, his wife from a past life...

He picked up the grilled meat sausage in his hand.

This was the best thing he could eat during the toughest time of his life.

It was also the first time Yao Mingyue had gone to such lengths to feed him a meal of "soft rice."

Xu Musen looked at it for a long while, then finally put it in his mouth and chewed.

If it was this kind of soft rice.

Lovely~
