Chapter 9 I'm Just Craving You
"Fifth brother...does your leg still hurt?" Xie Murong didn't dare to speak to Shen Wan, so he squatted down beside Xie Mubai in a pretentious manner, "I know that what happened last night was my fault. I shouldn't have left."
"You don't know how worried I am about you. I haven't slept a wink all night."
"If anything happens to you, I really don't know how I'm going to live..."
She was confessing with her mouth, but her eyes were fixed on the roasted pheasant that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Aunt Zhou wanted to eat this delicious roast chicken, and she wanted it too.
However, not having eaten meat for a day gave her the illusion that she was in another world.
"I didn't even see you go to take a look even though I was worried!" Shen Wan said quietly as she flipped the roast chicken.
Xie Murong's face turned pale, and he couldn't help but feel anxious: "The officers are guarding there, it's not convenient for me to come out."
"Fifth brother, I swear, I'm really worried about you!"
If it were in the past, Xie Mubai would never doubt the truth of this statement.
But now, he doesn't believe it.
"Are you done?" He frowned, his cool voice emitting a hint of chill, "Let's go if you're done."
He knew exactly what this concubine sister wanted to do.
In her heart, he, her biological brother, was not as important as a pheasant!
"Fifth brother, how could you do this? You used to love me the most!" Xie Murong lowered her eyes in grievance, tears streaming down her face. "Ever since that ugly girl came into the house, your attitude towards me has changed. You don't love me as much as before."
"What exactly do you want to say?" Xie Mubai frowned slightly and interrupted her impatiently.
Xie Murong rubbed his hands unnaturally at his clothes and stammered, "Fifth brother, can we still be like before?"
"You used to love me very much and were very filial to your aunt."
"You know, my aunt is old and not in good health. She needs to eat some meat to replenish her body."
"Of course!" Shen Wan sneered without even looking at her, "You are so filial, whether it's a pheasant or a rabbit, just go up the mountain and catch one for her."
Xie Murong's pretty face darkened, and she said unhappily, "How can I hunt?"
"Then there's nothing I can do." Shen Wan shrugged.
Xie Murong was anxious and said angrily, "Why can't you do anything? It's such a big chicken, why don't you just give them half?"
It doesn't seem like a lot for such a large group of people to only eat half of it. This ugly woman is really stingy.
"This is mine, why should I share it?" Shen Wan asked back.
If you want to eat her chicken, dream on!
Not to mention a chicken, she wouldn't even give you a chicken feather.
Thinking of this, Shen Wan really threw all the plucked chicken feathers into the fire.
Seeing that Xie Murong hadn't gotten the chicken for a long time, Aunt Zhou couldn't help but get anxious.
Especially Sun, her eyes sparkled with greed as she shouted, "Just because she's the concubine of the Xie family and the stepmother of my fifth brother! My fifth brother is a member of the Xie family, so your things naturally belong to the Xie family, so you must take them out and share them with everyone."
"But didn't we separate last night?" Shen Wan smiled coldly and looked at her provocatively, "Since we've separated, you have no right to take my things!"
"The official is still sitting here. Do you dare to snatch it openly in front of him?"
Of course the Xie family didn’t dare to snatch it.
Once he starts, he will definitely be whipped again.
The chicken is already roasted.
She tore off two chicken legs, gave one to Xie Mubai, and gave the other to the bearded officer.
She deliberately waved the remaining half in front of Xie Murong.
Xie Murong was delighted.
She knew that with Fifth Brother around, this ugly girl would definitely not dare to refuse.
As soon as she stretched out her hand, Shen Wan quickly took a big bite.
That’s right, she did it on purpose, just to make them jealous to death!
Xie Murong saw it and burst into tears out of anger.
"Auntie, they all bullied me!" She covered her face and ran to Auntie Zhou, crying aggrievedly.
Aunt Zhou was already very angry because she couldn't eat the chicken.
Seeing Xie Murong crying like this, he became even more furious: "Useless thing, you still have the nerve to come here!"
"Third wife, go get some water from the official!"
"I just don't believe it. If I don't eat that piece of meat, I'll starve to death!"
Looking at the frustrated look of the Xie family, Shen Wan had a smug smile on her face.
The one who suffered the most was Xie Murong. He didn't get to eat the pheasant or touch the bread, and even the free steamed buns were eaten up by a group of exiles.
“Little girl, your cooking skills are pretty good!” The bearded man gnawed on the chicken leg and couldn’t help but look at Shen Wan a few times, “This chicken is so delicious without adding salt, it’s not an easy thing.”
Shen Wan smiled and said, “It’s not that troublesome. I just picked a few herbs from the roadside as seasoning.”
"If you like it, I'll make it for you in the future!"
After hearing this, Xie Murong cried even harder.
If it were in the past, Xie Mubai would definitely offer the chicken leg in his hand immediately.
But now he seemed to have heard nothing. He just sat under the "parasol" and gnawed the chicken leg in his hand very elegantly.
He has never been a good person, especially when facing those who have hurt him.
Repaying evil with kindness is not the character setting that a villain should have.
After finishing his meal, Xie Mubai took the bamboo tube handed over by Shen Wan and drank some water before slowly closing his eyes and resting his mind.
Along the way, everyone was exhausted except him.
The parasol made of banana leaves is lush and green, and quite unique.
Even under the scorching sun, Xie Mubai still had a shady spot in the car.
The most convenient thing is that if he has to urinate urgently and cannot stop the car, he can tear a leaf to cover it, and then hang the bamboo tube next to the car after he is done.
After resting for a while, everyone had to continue their journey.
There was a long hillside ahead, and even though Shen Wan was as strong as an ox, it was still a bit difficult to push the cart.
Inadvertently, I saw a fat woman in the crowd glancing over here stealthily.
"She was the one who scolded me at the city gate yesterday." Xie Mubai also saw it and reminded.
Shen Wan nodded, and deliberately came to the bearded man, walking closely along the roadside.
When they were almost going downhill, the woman quietly slipped through the crowd and stretched out her foot inconspicuously.
Shen Wan didn't even glance at it and stepped directly towards the foot.
The woman looked at it and an evil smile appeared on her fat face.
The slope was extremely long and downhill. If the car overturned, even if Xie Mubai, who was seriously injured, did not die, he would definitely be in a terrible state.
Shen Wan stepped on that foot and walked straight past.
The car didn't flip over, and there wasn't even a slight bump.
Accompanied by a clear sound of bones breaking, the woman's face turned pale with pain and she let out a heart-wrenching scream.
Shen Wan used her dark power.
It's a good thing that she didn't suffer a comminuted fracture from this kick.
"What's wrong?" The bearded man saw this and cursed angrily, "If you dare to cause trouble again, you won't have dinner!"
The woman collapsed on the ground, pointing at Shen Wan and crying, “She…she stepped on my foot, my foot is almost broken!”
"I didn't do it!" Shen Wan blinked her big watery eyes, pretending to be harmless and innocent. "Sir, I was following you just now."
"No matter how big my feet are, there's no way they can reach her from the side of the road!"
