Reborn in the 80s, Get Rich by Eating Melons

He was choking and belching, but picked up the bowl, blushed and asked, "Sister-in-law, is there any more?"

With no recourse, Tong Yao shook her head, "I’ve fried all the leftover rice. If you’re still hungry, have some sugar cakes! There are a few of my mom’s fried sugar cakes left."

Song Yu quickly said, "Sugar cakes are fine."

Upon hearing this, Tong Yao went back to the kitchen and brought out the sugar cakes. By the time he had finished several sugar cakes and gulped down a large bowl of water, Tong Yao saw that he had almost finished eating and finally asked curiously.

"What happened to you, where’s Xiaohui?"

The mention of Xiaohui enraged and irritated Song Yu. He began complaining like a bitter woman, "Sister-in-law, brother, I didn’t want to come and bother you, but I had nowhere else to go. Xiaohui has changed. She despises me for not being capable and keeps on arguing for a divorce. I don’t want a divorce, so she hits and scratches me. I pushed her just once and she ran crying to my brother-in-law, who brought some men to physically punish me before driving me out. The lease on my rental has expired, I have no money and I can’t return home. I’ve been roaming the streets for five days and even fainted this morning from hunger. I had no other option but to come to you."

By the end, Song Yu couldn’t help but burst into tears. Even though he came from humble beginnings, he had never witnessed such misery.

Moreover, having lived a comfortable life for so long, suddenly finding himself adrift on the streets was something nobody could bear.
