Chapter 113: The value of money

Gu Fei looked at her helplessly: “What should I do? My hair is still wet. Should I comb it?”

“You can’t go out like this!” Lanzhi said and found a piece of cloth to wrap Gu Fei’s hair, and then let Gu Fei out.

Everyone outside was sleeping on the floor around the fire. Lian’er quickly opened the blanket. Mrs. Qian looked at her from the side and felt very unhappy.

When Lian’er was at her house, she was like a stick. She moved when she was called, and she didn’t move if she wasn’t called.

Why does she do everything, when she comes to Gu Fei’s house?

What a cheap bastard!

Uncle Ma also dealt with the two wolves that he and Chen Hu had killed. The wolf skins were given to the Eldest Uncle, and the wolf meat was taken off and put in a basin and given to Mrs. Chen.

When Mrs. Chen took the basin, she saw that all the surrounding eyes were staring at her.

She said calmly: “Everyone has worked hard to kill the wolf. Let’s divide the meat of the two wolves by head.”

“The rest was killed by my Xiao Fei. My family keeps it for ourselves.”

When Mrs. Qian heard that there was meat to be shared, she stood up first and reached into the basin without saying a word.

Mrs. Chen turned her back to her with the basin in her hand: “Auntie Liu, you are fair. Please share the meat with everyone.”

Auntie Liu took the basin with a smile: “Okay, then I’ll share it with everyone.”

“There are more than 100 kilograms of meat here. Everyone can enjoy it for a while.”

Each household had wolf meat to share, and they all happily brought the basin over.

Auntie Liu was quick to give each family a few pieces, and soon they were all shared.

Gu Fei secretly gave her father a few anti-inflammatory pills, and then she went to sleep.

Who knows if it was because of the fire or something else, but the wolf didn’t come again that night.

Gu Fei got up early and took a piece of wolf meat marinated yesterday, cut it into slices, fried it in a pan, and then sprinkled five-spice powder, chili powder, and cumin powder, which was fragrant.

Considering the two sick people, the old man and the county magistrate’s son, Gu Fei also specially fried a small plate without chili and spices.

Lian’er was chopping meat, while Li Chunhua was cutting vegetables. Her father was injured, so Gu Fei felt that he needed to eat meat to replenish his body. She would never admit that she was craving meat.

Breakfast was soon ready. A large pot of vegetable and lean meat porridge, a large plate of fragrant fried wolf meat, and white flour pancakes were placed on the wooden board.

Mrs. Chen first served porridge to Su Chen and the others, each of them served a large bowl, then to Uncle Ma, and finally to her family.

Su Chen held the bowl of porridge and took a bite of it politely. Then he raised an eyebrow. It tasted good. He picked up a piece of wolf meat and chewed it slowly. The wolf meat was fried to be crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The meat was chewy and delicious.

The little girl was excellent at cooking. He glanced at Gu Fei. The little girl was picking up food for her father. Her eyebrows were curved and particularly beautiful.

Su Chen quickly retracted his gaze and concentrated on eating.

After breakfast, the water was boiled. Mrs. Chen asked Zhang Ze to bring the water bag over and fill all the water bags of several people. Then she picked up the medicine jar and poured the medicine boiled for Su Chen into the bowl to cool.

Zhang Ze took the water bag back and smiled at Su Chen: “Young Master, how is it? Is the 100 taels worth spending? Not only did we have food delicious, but we saved a lot of trouble!”

Su Chen nodded slightly: “When we get to Ping’an City, I’ll give her family some more silver.”

After breakfast, they packed up and set off.

The people were getting more and more frightened as they walked. After walking such a distance, they could see people lying on the side of the official road, motionless, and they didn’t know whether they were dead or alive.

Lanzhi walked closely to Gu Fei. As they walked, she suddenly screamed and hugged Gu Fei.

Gu Fei looked to the side and saw a wild dog gnawing on a corpse on the side of the road. The wild dog had dug open the man’s stomach, and his intestines were all over the ground.
