Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 2118

Facing the two big vats in the kitchen, I rubbed my forehead. Just how long would it take me to fill them up?

I could only just go on with it. If I angered the old hag, I would probably be whipped again.

I started fetching water from the yard to the kitchen. I estimated that it would take me more than 30 trips to fill up the two large tanks.

There was obviously a faucet, so why did I have to fill them up like this? Perhaps she was just looking for trouble.

I was so tired that I slumped on the chair, but I had not even sat long when the old hag appeared again with her hands on her hips. Her attitude was domineering. "It's noon. Let's go cook. Prepare two food containers and send the food to the field for Frank and his father. Remember to pack in fish, meat, and vegetables."

Was she trying to drive me to the grave from exhaustion?

I raised my gaze to look at her but did not move for a long time. The old hag stared at me and urged, "Go on. Why are you still sitting there?"

"I'm tired. I can't get up." I lowered my eyes and kneaded my arms.

The old witch raised the whip in her hand and smiled sinisterly. "Can you get up now?"

Looking at her posture, I knew she was not joking.

Forget it. I just had to put up with it.

I gritted my teeth and stood up, slowly moving toward the kitchen. The old witch’s voice came from behind me again. "Hurry up. Why are you dragging your feet?!"

After arriving at the kitchen, I struggled with the fish. I did not cook much at home before, so I was still ignorant of some of the processes.

It took me about an hour before I was done preparing the meal. I left some food at home, divided the rest into two portions, and put them in lunch boxes. Then, I took the lunch boxes out of the kitchen when the old hag came up to me. "You move so slow. Go and deliver them."

"Where?"
