Chapter 332 Nothing
However, I was hungry...

Human hunger instinct led him to keep the oil paper package, but he felt extremely ashamed.

When did he start relying on his sister for financial support?
Nie wiped away her tears, looked at her second son, and sighed deeply.

"Mom, let's go."

Xin Wanqing helped Nie Shi leave, then turned to Xin Haoming and instructed him, "Stand back a bit, don't block the entrance and annoy people."

How annoying! How annoying! How annoying! Xin Haoming was practically driven mad by his younger sister's attitude.

How did he become the one everyone dislikes?

Xin Haoming was filled with resentment. Under the impatient glares of several patrolling guards, he retreated to the wooden shed area in a huff.

Driven away by the disgusted looks of the residents of the wooden shed area, he silently retreated outside, squatted down on a dirt roadside, and sullenly brooded.

He couldn't understand why his family treated him so badly.

Just because he fell in love with Yin Yin and wanted to spend his life with her? Does that mean he's breaking a law?
After thinking it over, he realized he shouldn't have labeled himself as "expelled from the family."

He and Yinyin are truly in love and mutually attracted to each other. What's wrong with that?

Yinyin is such a kind, beautiful, and innocent girl. If they spent just a few days with her, they would definitely like her.

Xin Haoming squatted by the roadside, sighing.

Around noon, the construction site started serving lunch, and the aroma of braised rabbit meat wafted over to the woodshed area.

Many people stood enviously outside the half-built city wall, peeking inside.

Xin Haoming's stomach was rumbling loudly, but he resisted the urge to touch the oil paper package that his older sister had thrown to him.

Soon, laughter and cheerful voices echoed from the construction site.

The residents of the shantytown were full of envy and gossip, saying, "I wonder when we can officially enter the base."

"I wish I could work on a construction site too."

“I heard from my third aunt’s cousin’s second uncle’s nephew that the food at the construction site is really good. There’s plenty of millet rice every day. They also add a meat dish from time to time. Today, the sixth daughter gave the order to add braised rabbit meat.”

"What? There's rabbit meat too?"

"Wow, this is such a great treatment."

"When can we get our ID cards and move into the base?"

"I'm afraid we'll have to wait a bit longer. Things are alright here, but I heard that in the woodshed area across the street, a lot of people with tumors were diagnosed, and they're all under unified management now."

"I heard that the Sixth Sister has said that outsiders must live in the shantytown for at least two months to confirm that they do not have any hidden illnesses before they can move in."

The crowd was whispering amongst themselves, and Xin Haoming squatted not far away, listening for a while. He was increasingly amazed by his sixth younger sister.

These people keep mentioning "Sixth Sister," "Sixth Sister," implying that in this icy base, could Sixth Sister's prestige possibly surpass that of His Highness the Crown Prince?
"The porridge is served! The porridge is served!" someone shouted joyfully from the front. "Quickly line up!"

Everyone quickly grabbed their soup bowls and lined up one after another.

"Families from 95231 to 95238".

Xin Haoming squatted there in surprise, watching the commotion. He saw that every time the worker serving the porridge called out a number, someone would happily run over with a basin.

"Thank you, thank you." "Sixth Miss said that everyone will be given ten points on credit first, and the rest will be deducted from the meal card. Starting tomorrow, those who are physically fit can go to the lake to carry water to the construction site. Six buckets of water are worth two points. Anyone who wants to do it can come."

Many people responded with excitement.

They now understand clearly that those points are a once-in-a-millennium treasure, and they must seize any opportunity to earn them.

"The base will not tolerate those who cheat or shirk their duties."

"After dinner, we will announce the list of people who have not worked properly and have only been thinking about taking advantage of others in the past three days."

“These people were given an appropriate warning the first time. Sixth Sister said that if they commit the offense a second time, they will be expelled from the base, their paintings will be added to the blacklist, and they will never be included in the base again.”

Xin Haoming squatted outside the shantytown, watching these people happily receive their food rations.

A bowl of millet porridge with a steamed bun.

Xin Haoming, starving, opened the oil paper package, which contained five steamed buns just like those of the residents of the shantytown.

He glanced at the man sitting not far away eating, who could eat a steamed bun with rice porridge.

He took a bite of the steamed bun, choked for a long time before swallowing it, and felt increasingly bitter.

When Xin Wenhao and Xin Haoyang arrived, they saw the second brother in such a miserable state.

After choking for a while, Xin Haoyang finally managed to swallow a mouthful of steamed bun. Feeling sorry for his younger brother, he quickly untied the water pouch hanging from his waist and handed it to him.

"Father, elder brother!" Xin Haoming's eyes welled up with tears when he saw his relatives.

"Haoming," Xin Wenhao sighed as he saw his son, "your older sister briefly told me about your situation."

“My eldest sister’s heart is completely on the side of my sixth sister’s family now. What good things could she possibly say about me?” Xin Haoming was furious.

Xin Wenhao stared at his son with a troubled expression. "Didn't your eldest sister tell you that if it weren't for your sixth sister helping to take care of them along the way, their whole family, including the elderly, weak, women, and children, might have perished on the road?"

"Isn't this just the duty of family members to help each other?" Xin Haoming became more and more angry as he spoke. "Our eldest branch of the family has helped the fourth branch of the family quite a bit in the past. Back when Uncle and Aunt were fighting and arguing, almost taking it to court, Dad and Mom did a lot of things to mediate."

"And then there's Sixth Sister. I remember when she was ten, she was always causing trouble outside, and the family had to clean up countless messes for her. Later, she somehow fell and became mentally impaired, and she ended up looking dazed and crying all the time. But we never disliked her."

"Shut up! What you're saying are trivial matters, how can they be compared to matters of life and death?" Xin Haoyang was afraid that others would hear him, so he quickly pulled his stupid younger brother away.

"My eldest sister said that if it weren't for the care and attention of my sixth sister and the others, they would have been completely unable to withstand the torrential rain in Hengxian County."

Xin Wenhao also looked puzzled, staring at his son who was nothing special, and shook his head repeatedly.

My youngest son used to be quite clever and quick-witted, but now he seems increasingly stupid.

"It's not that I'm ungrateful to Sixth Sister and the others. I just feel that Sixth Sister has a deep-seated prejudice against my Yin Yin, and she shouldn't have done that."

"You shouldn't have gotten involved with that Yin Yin." Xin Haoyang glared at him angrily.

"Moreover, Sixth Sister told us that you have lived in the Hutu tribe for a long time and have long known from Chief Ameng that Grandfather and we may have been imprisoned in the Northern Yan camp."

"Why have you never come to investigate from the beginning?"

Xin Haoming opened his mouth, he didn't expect his sixth sister to blurt out whatever came to mind, even telling his father and older brother.
No wonder my grandfather didn't come over; he must be angry with my behavior.

His resentment towards his sixth sister deepened even further.

"I... I had no choice. Yinyin had a fever at the time and was delirious. But Father, I thought I would go to save you as soon as Yinyin recovered..."
