Chapter 141 I was afraid I would eat all the meat
Xue responded quickly, "Xiaoxi is worried that the chestnut tree on the mountain might be discovered, so she's going to keep an eye on it. Once we've eaten it, we'll carry the rest down."
"Then I'll leave some food for Xiaoxi." Chai was afraid that her daughter would be hungry.
"No need. I roasted a pheasant over a low fire when I went down the mountain. I guess it will be ready to eat when I get back up." Gu Nanming added.
"Yes, yes, yes, my sister has pheasant to eat, let's go eat!" After saying this, Gu Dongming was afraid that his mother would ask something else, so he pulled his wife into the kitchen.
Gu Nanming followed him into the kitchen.
Chai looked at the three people and wondered why they were acting weird today.
Gu He, who was smoking a pipe at the door, had a slight smile on his face.
These three bastards were obviously lying, but their wives didn't see it?
Wild mandarin ducks!
I guess you are talking about the stream and the man on the mountain?
No wonder Xiaoxi always comes back with a full load. It turns out that someone is helping him.
However, since Xiaoxi hasn't decided to bring the person back, I guess she hasn't made up her mind yet.
"Brother, how about I go up the mountain to take a look?" Gu An stood up.
"Don't go. It seems that the three of them like that boy more, otherwise they wouldn't lie together. She is grown up and has her own ideas. Let her go!" Gu He pulled his third brother to sit down.
After hearing what his elder brother said, Gu An decided not to follow him to see what was going on.
Gu Xiaoxi sneezed all the way up the mountain and finally returned to the chestnut tree.
At this time, Ye Lixuan not only roasted a pheasant, but also caught a rabbit for fear that it would not be enough to eat, and cleaned the rabbit.
He looked up when he heard footsteps and saw Gu Xiaoxi coming back alone, and he felt even happier.
"Brother, didn't the others come up with us?" he asked deliberately.
"I was worried that they were too tired, so I asked them to eat at home and rest for a while before coming up." After saying this, Gu Xiaoxi threw a few empty backpacks on the ground.
Seeing a cleaned rabbit on the ground, she picked it up and washed it in the water nearby, applied marinade on it, picked some leaves to wrap it up, and returned to the chestnut tree.
Ye Lixuan waited for Cuihua to sit down and stuffed a big chicken leg into her hand.
Gu Xiaoxi was already hungry, so she took the chicken leg and started eating it in big mouthfuls.
Seeing Gu Xiaoxi eating with relish, Ye Lixuan also felt an appetite. He picked up another chicken leg and started eating it in big mouthfuls.
While eating, the two talked about the last human trafficking incident.
"We followed the clues and found two leads, and then handed them over to the government." Ye Lixuan told Cuihua the follow-up.
After hearing this, Gu Xiaoxi said gloomily, "For such a powerful force to exist there, they must have some kind of protective umbrella. Perhaps there's something wrong with that county magistrate."
"Don't worry, the county magistrate has been replaced and he is a reliable person." Ye Lixuan naturally thought of this problem.
"That's fine, let's eat. After eating, take a break and continue. At least we should finish this chestnut tree today." Gu Xiaoxi looked at the four chestnut trees next to him and felt full of passion.
"You don't want the other three?" Ye Lixuan asked.
"Leave it here and come back when you have time. We won't be able to sell all of them if we take them all. Let's do it after we sell those first." Gu Xiaoxi explained.
Ye Lixuan nodded in understanding.
After eating, the two continued to work and filled several backpacks.
After waiting for a while, Gu Dongming and others came up.
Gu Xiaoxi said goodbye to Ye Lixuan, and she followed her brother and sister-in-law down the mountain, carrying a backpack.
After Ye Lixuan waited for Gu Xiaoxi to leave, he also went down the mountain. He wondered when they would meet next time.
When Gu Xiaoxi and the others returned home, Sixth Grandpa and the others brought Uncle Yuan over.
Gu Cheng and Uncle Yuan settled down to help Xiaoxi.
Gu An wanted to keep his sixth uncle and A Yuan's wife for dinner, but they refused to stay no matter what.
Not only that, they also brought up a large bag of rice, which made Gu An feel embarrassed.
"Sixth Uncle, you have already given me the silver, why did you send so much food over?" Gu An chased after him and wanted to return the bag of food to him.
"Of course they do. They live here and need to eat!" Sixth Grandpa refused and glared at Gu An fiercely: "Why, now that Xiaoxi has made money, you still look down on your Sixth Uncle?"
Gu An looked at his sixth uncle helplessly, his eyes suddenly red.
"Okay, let's go back. Xiaoxi will cure them both. Our family will have two more people working, and we can earn back the money quickly." Sixth Grandpa couldn't bear to see the tears, so he strode forward with his hands behind his back.
Gu Yuan's wife waved her hand and said, "Brother He and sister-in-law, go back quickly!"
Why……
Chai responded and stood there with her husband, watching the two figures completely disappear, then returned to the house.
Gu Xiaoxi and his siblings were standing not far away. Seeing this scene, Gu Xiaoxi felt that the feelings of their parents were definitely true gold that is not afraid of fire.
"Sixth Grandpa and the old patriarch's families are both good people. They have helped us a lot in the past, but Sixth Grandpa is not good at speaking." Gu Dongming said with emotion.
"Don't worry, I remember all this. Let's go and make dry pot rabbit for everyone." Gu Xiaoxi said and walked ahead.
Now that they live at the foot of the mountain, they are no longer afraid of being discovered eating meat.
When they returned home, Gu and his friends had already cleaned up the prey they had caught.
Gu Xiaoxi went to the kitchen to work freely, Xue went in to help, and Chai was asked to leave the kitchen by Xue.
As soon as the door was closed, the two of them got busy.
Because there were patients, Gu Xiaoxi made two different flavors, one spicy for normal people to eat.
Give the patient two non-spicy ones.
Who doesn’t love delicious hot pot?
Chen Shiliu couldn't get out of bed, otherwise he would have come to the kitchen earlier after smelling the smell.
There were many people here now, so Gu Xiaoxi divided the hot pot into two pots. The men sat at one table, and the women and children sat at another table, so it wouldn't be too crowded.
It was the first time that Ma Weiwei ate the food cooked by Gu Xiaoxi. After eating a piece of rabbit meat, she praised it highly and couldn't stop eating it.
Gu Cheng had eaten Xiaoxi's cooking before, and it was so delicious that he couldn't stop eating it. Finally, he ate it again, but he didn't dare to move his chopsticks too much, for fear that he would not be able to resist and eat all the meat.
Seeing that Gu Cheng was too embarrassed to pick up his chopsticks, Gu Xiaoxi said, "Eat as much as you can. We've got some new friends here today, and I've gained a lot on the mountain. Eat as much as you can!"
After hearing Xiaoxi say this, Gu Cheng finally dared to pick up the food.
While Gu Xiaoxi was talking, it seemed that the bottom of their pot had already been exposed.
"It's delicious, Sister Xiaoxi. Your cooking skills are simply amazing. It tastes better than the ones made by the chefs in those big restaurants in the city." Ma Weiwei couldn't stop eating and didn't forget to praise it.
"Whatever you like to eat, buy it tomorrow and I'll cook it for you." Gu Xiaoxi was not polite either.
This official who came from the imperial capital couldn't be poorer than them. The young lady was well dressed, so buying some meat wouldn't make her poor, right?
When Gu Xiaoxi said this, Chen Qinian secretly glanced at Ma Weiwei.
