"The people here are so skinny…" Lin Qiaole muttered as she sat by her bed and looked at the people below. "They are like the lampposts in Lan City."
Not only were they thin, but they also hunched their backs and walked hastily with their heads down, stepping around carelessly.
"They are ordinary people," Ren Baqian replied faintly. "There are rich and poor people in every society. The rich are fat, whereas the poor have difficulty getting enough food and staying warm. These people are fine. Although they look emaciated, they are still pretty healthy."
"If they can afford to eat vegetables, why don't they eat more meat!" Lin Qiaole mumbled as she turned her head away.
He was speechless.
This was well said!
If Ren Baqian had grown up in an environment like Dayao, he probably would say something like this as well!
In this place, this was something that only the people of noble families who led extravagant lifestyles could say.
