Yu!” She stomped her feet out of anger. The man grinned, “So what we have no kids? You are my little baby.” Pei Qiqi thought, how did this scene change so fast!

I'd recommend 'A Modest Proposal' by Jonathan Swift. It's a very famous satire. Swift proposes that the poor Irish should sell their children as food to the rich. This extreme and grotesque idea is actually a scathing satire on the British exploitation of Ireland at that time. It shows how the British treated the Irish as less than human, and how indifferent the rich were to the plight of the poor.
