Chapter 24: Let me tell you a story

Mrs. Chen was anxious, “Then why don’t you buy more today?”

“The amount of food you bought today is just enough to last for 10 to 15 days!”

Gu Qing said nothing.

Mrs. Chen soon realized that she had said the wrong thing. If her son didn’t buy more, it naturally meant he had no money. What else could be the reason?

Xiao Cao suddenly said: “Grandmother, don’t worry, I will eat less in the future.”

Mrs. Chen looked at Xiao Cao with a little moist eyes: “This child is sensible.”

Gu Fei reached out and touched Xiao Cao’s head, “You don’t have to eat less, Xiaocao. Aunt will give Xiao Cao a lot of delicious food in the future. Then won’t you be white and fat by then?”

Everyone thought that Gu Fei was just coaxing the child, and no one thought that she was serious.

After dinner, Mrs. Chen and Li Chunhua were clearing away the dishes. Gu Fei thought for a while, she couldn’t go on like this. She couldn’t just guard a treasure mountain and let her family eat chaff vegetables. Wouldn’t that be stupid?

There was also the matter of leaving the North. She needs to tell this to her father quickly. This was not a simple trip that they could just leave whenever they wanted to. If they decide to leave, they still have to make a lot of preparations.

Gu Erlang helped Gu Fei stand up, but then Gu Fei stopped Gu Zhang: “Father, come with me to the room. I have something to tell you.”

Gu Erlang helped Gu Fei lie down on the Kang and walked out silently. Gu Zhang closed the door and sat beside the kang.

Gu Fei thought for a moment before speaking: “Father, that pot of chicken at noon today——”

Hearing this, Gu Zhang looked at Gu Fei deeply and said, “Don’t worry, Xiao Fei, Father won’t mention anything.”

No, Father, I want you to mention it! Why don’t you ask about it?

Gu Fei looked at her father with resentment and had to say, “Actually, at noon, it’s not a cover-up.”

Gu Zhang nodded: “Father sees it.”

“Father, why don’t you ask me what’s going on?” Gu Fei tilted her head.

Gu Zhang shook his head: “No, I won’t ask. Is there anyone in this world who doesn’t have secrets?”

Gu Fei glared at her father, “You are so uncooperative. How can I go on?”

Gu Fei puffed up her cheeks and said: “I have to tell you.”

Gu Zhang nodded with a smile, “Then I’ll listen.”

Gu Fei rolled her eyes and started telling a story.

“Father I’ve had some strange adventures over the years.”

“When I was in the Marquis Mansion, I was sick for several days. I felt like I was in another world.”

Gu Zhang’s focus was very strange: “When did you get sick? Why didn’t you tell us about it to us?”

Gu Fei waved her hand, “Father, don’t interrupt me, let’s get down to business.”

I beg you, can you focus on the main point?

“That world is very different from us. I won’t go into details. Even if I do, you won’t understand.”

“In that world, it seemed like many years had passed, and I also gained a magical ability.”

Gu Zhang’s expression gradually became serious: “What ability?”

An apple suddenly appeared in Gu Fei’s hand. She took a bite and said, “I have a space where I can put many things. This space exists in my mind. As long as I think about it, I can take things out and put them in.”

“Of course, the distance must not be too far.” Gu Fei waved her hand: “But it’s not important.”

Gu Zhang suddenly realized: “You took in the chicken soup earlier?”

Gu Fei nodded, and she moved closer to Gu Zhang, “Father, I still have some food from that world in my dimension. We don’t need to be afraid of running out of food for the time being.”

She looked at it before and found that it had rice, flour, cooking oil, and so on.

Gu Zhang’s eyes widened, and an expression of ecstasy gradually appeared on his face: “Do we have food?”

Gu Fei nodded vigorously.

One thought on “Chapter 24: Let me tell you a story

  1. I’m honestly surprised that his first reaction isn’t that she’s some kind of demon or monster, but accepts it so naturally. He must be a very open-minded individual, lol.

    Thanks for the chapter! 😀
