Blessed Girl From a Farm Family: Surviving the Famine With Space - Chapter 27
Fu Manman picked up the little tiger cub lying on the ground. It was still a nursing cub, thin and small, just like an oversized cat. Its black and yellow fur was extremely soft, and its body felt warm and pudgy to the touch.
Fu An and Fu Qiang looked at Fu Manman in astonishment as she returned carrying a small tiger cub.
“Sis, is that a baby tiger?” Fu An’s jaw dropped wide open. He had seen adult tigers before, but this was his first time seeing a baby tiger.
It was… so cute! So tender and kitten-like.
“Are you sure you want to keep it?” Fu Qiang frowned, mentally calculating their remaining food supplies.
“Yes, I’m keeping it. Its mother entrusted it to me. A person must keep their word. We’ll just treat it as a pet—it can keep Little Maodan company in the future.” Fu Manman quite liked this little tiger.
Holding it in her arms, it felt soft, warm, and cozy, with thick little paws that were pudgy and fleshy.
With this little tiger to sleep beside Little Maodan, the baby wouldn’t feel cold anymore.
Hearing Fu Manman’s words, Fu Qiang curled his lips and snorted coldly. “You’re really not afraid of dying. Wait until it grows up and comes to eat you!”
“Annoying little brother, can’t you say something nicer?” Fu Manman was in a good mood after getting a new pet.
“Let’s hurry up and go find a water source!” Soon, Little Maodan would be hungry and need milk, and this little tiger would need milk too!
Fu Manman glanced into the deep forest and silently bid farewell to the mother tiger.
“Sis, what are we going to feed the little tiger?” Fu An also quite liked the little tiger, but tigers need to eat a lot, and they hardly had any food themselves!
Fu Manman had already considered this. Once she figured out how to access her space, raising the little tiger wouldn’t be a problem. There was powdered milk in the space, as well as plenty of frozen meat.
Time stood still in the space—those supplies would never expire or go bad!
“We’ll find a way. Let’s go!” Fu Manman said lightly.
Fu Qiang glanced at her indifferently. Clueless woman!
…
After walking for a long time, they finally found a good spot with a water source and a cave.
Seeing the stream, Fu Manman was thrilled. Water was the source of life—she could finally wash her face and hands properly.
After settling Little Maodan and the little tiger, she eagerly rushed to the stream to wash her face properly.
The entire way, she had felt uncomfortable and even a bit of a stinging sensation on her face. More importantly, she still didn’t know what she looked like!
When she reached the stream, she looked into the water with anticipation, only for her heart to sink heavily to the bottom.
This… girl was just too ugly!
Her face was so thin that her cheekbones protruded sharply. Her skin was dark, sallow, and rough, with cracked cheeks and two patches of ruddy, windburned redness that looked utterly rustic. Her eyes were swollen, the skin around her lips was chapped and dark, and her face was covered with red, swollen frostbite.
This face was too ugly! It was simply unbearable to look at.
How could this girl look like this?
In her previous life, she had been recognized as the belle of her village. After being brought back to the city, she was known in her circles as a famous white-rich-beauty.
Could it be that in this life, she was doomed to live with an ugly face forever?
She couldn’t accept it. Even if she couldn’t be beautiful, she at least wanted to be presentable!
“Sis, what are you doing?” Fu An had somehow squatted down beside her. He had just washed his hands and face in the stream. Though the water was cold, it felt refreshing.
Fu Manman looked at Fu An, and her eyes lit up.
Her little brother Fu An was actually quite cute. Though a bit thin and with sallow, chapped skin, his features were delicate and handsome, especially his eyes—bright and filled with innocence and youthfulness.
If raised well, this little brother would likely grow into a handsome and spirited young man.
How could the difference between these siblings be so great?
She almost wondered if she was actually his biological sister.
“Nothing, I’m just washing my hands and face.” Fu Manman bent down to wash her face.
The next time she accessed her space, she would look for some skincare products. She had to fix her face.
After washing her hands and face, Fu Manman entered the cave.
In the cave, Fu An had already started boiling water.
