Maybe My Soulmate! (GL)
Chapter 49 - 49 - Food.

The sun was setting on the horizon as night was approaching.

Mother Lan, Mo Yuxin and fengfeng talked and played a lot as they relieved their tension for the past few days.

Mother Lan and Fengfeng has gotten a lot better after taking the advanced healing pill and they no longer have any internal or external injury.

Though, they are malnutritioned as fengfeng's cheeks are sunken which clearly shows that for years, they haven't had a good meal and mother Lan herself has almost aged to be in late 50s when she only should be in her early 40s.

The years of hardships and the emotional burden has made her originally smooth black hair become full of white hairs.

Her face has quite a few wrinkles now.

But it's not much of a problem to get her back on the right track. Mo Yuxin thought.

The moment she steps foot into the foundation building stage, her body will automatically go through a baptism by the heavenly blessings and her youth will be recovered to a certain extent.

Though recovering directly to her youth will be impossible unless she achieves an extremely high level of cultivation.

"There's a lot to do." Mo Yuxin thought.

She cast her gaze towards the mother and daughter pair who talking and laughing with each other as the worry had completely faded from their very being.

She knew that this time, her intervention has completely gotten rid of their source of misery.

And right now, they have finally found their well-deserved freedom which they yearned for.

"Xin'er.. come here. Dinner's ready....." Mother Lan suddenly came from the kitchen after preparing dinner for them.

Just half an hour ago, she went to prepare dinner for the family of three.

Mo Yuxin didn't stop her as she had to see with her own eyes, the amount of food they consume and what kind of food they consume for them to be so malnutritioned.

As Mother Lan came with a few trays of dishes and prepared them on a a wooden table, fengfeng immediately went towards the table to look at the food.

Even from a distance Mo Yuxin could clearly hear her stomach churning from hunger as she didn't have a single bite to eat the whole day.

And the whole day was truly hectic as the ordeal with the Mo Family and Mo Futian were something no child in this world should ever experience.

As Mo Yuxin looked towards her and saw her face visibly changing from the hungry look to the look of disappointment as the dishes were truly something that only beggers eat.

Even though, fengfeng felt sad after seeing the same food they've been eating for days on end but she was still sensible as she knew the difficulties of her mother and didn't throw a tantrum like kids of other families.

She sat down at the right side and took a spoonful of porridge and took them into her mouth.

Her face looked colourless as there were truly no such thing as flavours nor any taste in these dishes.

"Come here Xin'er... Eat.." Mother Lan called to her daughter in a warm voice filled with love.

As Mo Yuxin went towards the table and sit on the left side, she finally got a clear look at the dishes on the table.

There were nothing but three bowls of rice porridge which looked half water and half rice.

There were a few vegetable dishes and clearly at a glance you could see that the vegitables were not fresh at all.

The cabbage and carrots had a pungent smell in them and looked truly unhygienic.

But looking at fengfeng and Mother Lan who starred eating without even a single frown on her face made it clear that this was something they were used to.

Even though Mo Yuxin had inherited the memories of the previous Mo Yuxin but seeing it herself was much more miserable than what she saw in her memories.

She felt a little sour in her heart but that was only because they are someone, she already considers her family.

As with her mentality and tempering of thousands years thanks to the divine sense had made her emotions completely under control and she wouldn't even bat an eye even if the whole world gets destroyed until and unless she thinks herself what's right and what's wrong.

After coming out her thoughts, she suddenly stopped her mother and fengfeng from eating this miserable food.

"Mom, stop. Don't eat this." Mo Yuxin said.

"? . What happened Xin'er? " Mother Lan asked in confusion as she didn't understand why Mo Yuxin stopped her.

"This is not something we should eat. Mom and fengfeng, let's go out to eat in an inn." Mo Yuxin said calmly.

The moment Mo Yuxin talked about eating outside in an inn, Little fengfeng's eyes immediately started shining as she has never had a meal outside in those inns but she had heard many children from the neighbours talk about how delicious the foods of those inns are.

But she also knew that they didn't have the money to afford the meals in those places and being how sensible she was as a child, she calmed down almost instantly and looked at Mo Yuxin with eagerness.

"C-can w-we?? Really eat in those inns big sis?" Little fengfeng asked with hesitation but there was a faint hope in her voice.

Mo Yuxin looked towards her and it was easy for her to notice every bit of expressions on her face as well as what she was thinking.

"Yes. Let's go eat in those inns. There will be a lot of delicious food." Mo Yuxin said to her in a warm voice affirming the little girls wishes.

At this point Mother Lan asked, "b-but.. isn't those inns really expensive? Let's not eat there, ok, fengfeng..."

As she heard her mother's hesitation, little fengfeng's face immediately changed like a deflated ballon as she lowered her head and didn't talk anymore.

Mo Yuxin looked at fengfeng and felt a little funny but also understood her mother's hesitation.

"Don't worry mom. I have money and enough to feed us a whole meal." Mo Yuxin said calmly and fengfeng's ears immediately perked up like a little rabbit.

Mother Lan looked at her little daughter's desire and didn't want to disappoint her at all after everything they've been through today.

She immediately calculated the amount of money they had and remembered that their family only has 100 bronze coins as their entire savings which wouldn't be enough at all.

But she could buy her daughter one or two dishes in a very low end inn.

From the very beginning, she never thought about spending her daughter's money as she probably thought that after spending she wouldn't have any money to spend on herself.

Mo Yuxin saw through her mother's thoughts and took out a single gold with a thought.

The moment the gold was placed on the table, the eyes of the two people immediately widened from the shining piece of gold which fengfeng may have never seen but mother Lan definitely has.

It has been more that 20 years since she last saw a gold coin.
