Chapter 41 The couple's secret plot at night (1/2)



By this time, Lai Fu had already settled the carriage and set up the stove.

Qing'er's mother helped Qing'er wash rice and cook.

The chicken and pig's trotters that were brought from Mengru County last time were still there. Qing'er's mother cooked a pot of chicken soup, then roasted a pot of braised pig's trotters, and then threw some vegetable leaves into it.

Soon the aroma of food filled the air.

Madam Fu served Chu Chenyin a bowl of chicken soup and handed it to her, "Chenyin, come and eat quickly. You are weak, so eat more."

Chu Chenyin is the kind of person who looks thin but is actually physically strong.

Mrs. Fu had always treated her as a weak and gentle lady from a civil servant's family, so she had always taken extra care of her.

Even the chicken legs were cut into pieces for her with scissors.

"Thank you, mother!" In order not to let her down, Chu Chenyin ate the food with relish.

Qing'er's cooking skills are really good. The chicken soup is delicious and not greasy, and the chicken is tender and not fishy.

Although it is good to have something to eat on the way to escape, the delicious food can really make people feel refreshed and energetic.

After Chu Chenyin finished eating, he washed away the fatigue from traveling all night and became full of energy.

When she turned around and was about to go to Fu Yanting, she found him squatting beside the little boy with a plate of pig's trotters in his hand. An innocent smile appeared in his deep and clear eyes, and he reached out and gently stroked the lamb's head.

The little boy must have been very hungry, so he took the pig's trotter and started eating it in big mouthfuls.

Seeing that he had almost finished eating, Fu Yanting took the empty plate and returned to the carriage.

Chu Chenyin looked at his figure and felt a little surprised.

I didn't expect that General Fu, besides being cruel and ruthless, could also be so gentle and kind.

She thought about it and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.

General Fu can always surprise people.

After they had their fill, they packed up their things and got into the carriage.

Lord Fu asked everyone to be careful of horse thieves, so everyone held a weapon in their hands just in case.

But just as Fu Yanting said, the horse thieves would not come a second time, and at the same time they had already raided another village.

Chu Chenyin sat in the carriage and looked up at the blue sky.

There are only three hours left. Once it gets dark, everything will change.

When it gets dark and the flints fall, the horse thieves will certainly become restless, which is just the right time for them to empty their nest.

As night falls, the vast grassland is plunged into darkness, and the only thing one can look up at is the starry sky.

The stars are exceptionally bright tonight, especially those around the moon, which are somewhat blinding.

Fu Kanghong leaned against the carriage and looked towards the capital, frowning and wondering, "The stars seem a little strange today."

Mrs. Fu came over and asked, "Strange? It looks the same every day."

Fu Qianghong raised his head and pointed at one of the stars next to the moon and said, "Mom, look, isn't that star very big?"
