The village chief felt sorry for the silver: “Don’t worry, it’s good to rest in the wild.”

Su Chen stuck his head out: “Let’s rest for a night, I need treatment for my leg.”

The village chief had no choice but to agree, as this man was now his family’s creditor.

So he went to find an inn first.

He found an inconspicuous inn, where a bed was only ten cents per person without bedding, and water was drawn from the well.

Everyone felt that they had picked up a huge bargain, and happily paid the copper coins and unloaded the mule.

Su Chen originally planned to find a better inn but finally decided to live together, but he wanted a room upstairs.

Gu Fei also asked for a room, boiled a few buckets of free water, took a bath, and then had a good sleep. Mrs. Chen wanted to go shopping, but Gu Fei refused to go. It was hard to have a half-day rest, so she wanted to have a good sleep.

After waking up, Gu Fei decided to make something delicious to reward herself and everyone.

Looking for an opportunity, she took out a large piece of meat and asked Lian’er to cut it into small pieces.

Gu Erlang didn’t go out, so Gu Fei ordered him to build a stove in the backyard and fetch water.

Mrs. Chen and her family came back just as they were busy, and bought a large bundle of vegetables and a fish.

Besides the meat, Gu Fei’s biggest craving was vegetables.

She stared at the vegetables and fish with shining eyes, and Gu Qing hurriedly said: “Chunhua, go and cut the fish, and let Xiao Fei cook it.”

The women in the family joined the battle, some washed the vegetables, and some cut the vegetables.

Gu Fei enjoyed the treatment of a master chef and was in charge of the cooking.

Gu Fei made braised pork today and took a clay pot to simmer on the fire, and the fragrance drifted far away.

Then she made a crucian carp meatball soup, stir-fried cabbage with garlic, and then fried a large plate of eggs.

The shopkeeper of this store was nice, and let them put the food in the lobby to eat, anyway, there were not many customers in the lobby.

After the food was served, Gu Zhang asked Gu Qing to call Su Chen and others upstairs.

There were too many people to sit down, so they were divided into two tables, one for men and one for women.

The braised pork was Gu Fei’s best dish. She learned it from her classmate’s grandmother after eating it at her classmate’s house.

Xiao Cao’s eyes narrowed as she ate, and her shiny little mouth chewed quickly.

Su Chen savored the braised pork carefully, and asked casually, “Second Uncle Gu, which city in Donghai County are you and your family planning to go to?”

Gu Zhang took a sip of wine: “Ping’an City!”

Su Chen’s heart skipped a beat, and he smiled: “I’m going to Ping’an City too.”

Gu Zhang looked yearning: “When I was young, I heard from my teacher that Ping’an City was extremely prosperous, and the Jinshui River ran through the city. Every night, there were countless flower boats and pleasure boats on the river, and the face-washing water splashed by the flower girls would make the whole river fragrant.”

Mrs. Chen, who was at the next table, heard the word “flower girl” and her face changed suddenly, and she clenched the chopsticks in her hand tightly.

Gu Fei coughed lightly, picked up a meatball put it in Mrs. Chen’s bowl, and raised her voice slightly: “Mom, eat the vegetables.”

Su Chen glanced over there and smiled slightly.

Gu Zhang received his daughter’s signal, laughed, and changed the subject: “Alas, I am worried now. Although Ping’an City is prosperous, the expenses must be high. I don’t know how this big family will settle down.”

Gu Fei chewed the braised pork and thought about it. Yes, how will such a big family survive in Ping’an City?

Farming?

Land was the foundation of people in this era. They must buy some land. But no matter which dynasty, farmers can only solve the problem of food and clothing. If they want to get rich, they have to think of other ways.
