Chapter 34: Dividing the Loot



Sister Yun greeted Hu Qiangyong’s entire family.

Hu Qiangyong’s wife, Zhao Yao snorted through his nose, not knowing whether to laugh or not.

When Sister Yun divided the things into three parts, Zhao Yao's face became indescribably gloomy.

The three portions that Sister Yun divided out could not be exactly the same. There were some slight differences that vaguely leaned towards Yu Xifeng.

Among the small half of pork, the best tenderloin was given to Yu Xifeng, and the lamb chop also occupied the piece with the most meat.

Hu Qiangyong obviously also acquiesced to this distribution.

His portion was similar to Sister Yun's, with more flour and less steak, which was considered fair.

Zhao Yao endured it again and again, and said, "Even if Xiao Yu paid for the kayak, my husband is a man. He must have put in a lot of effort on this trip. Even if I can't say I can get more, my husband should get at least some."

Sister Yun showed a half-smile, glanced at Hu Qiangyong, and simply put down the flour in her hand, motioning Hu Qiangyong: "Come, come."

Hu Qiangyong's face turned red with embarrassment, and he waved his hands repeatedly: "I have no objection."

He turned to Yu Xifeng and smiled awkwardly: "Whatever you get is what you deserve."

"Wife, if you have nothing else to do, go back first. Xiaoyu can take all of these today, not to mention one third."

"You, you," Zhao Yao was so angry that his face turned red. He tilted his head and stared at Yu Xifeng's fair face, his expression becoming more and more unfriendly.

Sister Yun smiled.

There had been dirty rumors about Hu Qiangyong and Sister Yun circulating in the building before, but she was a widow and didn't care about such gossip.

Zhao Yao said a few strange words at that time.

Sister Yun ignored her.

But I can’t just sit back and watch her get into Yu Xi’s spotlight.

"You don't know what's happening in Lin Mansion right now, do you?" Sister Yun stared at Zhao Yao. "There's no one alive in the entire community. It's all blood. Doors have been smashed. Houses have been robbed. People with broken hands are crawling outside, dying with their eyes wide open."

Zhao Yao was stunned.

Hu Qiangyong's face turned pale when he recalled what happened at that time.

Sister Yun tapped the steak and said, "You've seen these things, they're definitely not disaster relief items. We went to that five-star hotel and ran into those people. They just came out of Lin Mansion. If it weren't for Yu Xifeng, we wouldn't have been able to come back."

Zhao Yao blurted out: "How is that possible?"

Yu Xifeng put his legs together and was peeling a tangerine with his head down. His neck was soft and he looked well-educated.

The three of them brought the tangerines back from the hotel. There was only one bag left, so they asked Sister Yun to bring it out.

Three people got one point each, so each got five or six.

It has melted a little and tastes crunchy, a bit like ice cream.

Zhao Yao became more and more upset. There was famine in her family, the children were crying with hunger, and when they ate, they wished they could swallow their fingers.

How can there be such calmness?

People like Yu Xifeng look like good girls at first glance.

What abilities can a little girl like this have?

It’s all because of her husband!

She glared at Hu Qiangyong fiercely and was about to say a few more words when Mother Hu slammed her cane on the ground: "Zhao Yao!"

Zhao Yao curled her lips, but didn't say anything because of her mother-in-law's expression.

Mother Hu hunched her back and bowed her head towards Yu Xifeng. "Zhao Yao is young and naive, so please don't take it personally. Qiangyong in my family doesn't have any special abilities, and he relies on you two to raise him. If you need anything, call him, and we will never say no."

Hu's mother knew her son well, and believed that his courage and ability were mediocre.

They were not the only group out kayaking.

But only Yu Xifeng and Sister Yun never failed to return home every time they went out.

This is not my son's ability.

Mother Hu turned around and scooped up a handful of sprouts from home.

"I have beans prepared at home. You brought back all this good meat, so I'll put some vegetables in with it."

Although Hu's mother was using a cane, she was able to keep the situation stable.

Sister Yun's expression improved a little and she smiled at her.

"Xiao Yu looks like a student, but he is much better than us." Hu's mother said, "It's so hard to be so good outside. The elderly in Building 3 passed away a long time ago. He even took his ID card to collect the disaster relief last time. If it weren't for the strange smell outside, who knows how long the elderly would have to ferment at home."

She held Sister Yun's hand and said, "Before the disaster relief, they said it would be once a week. It's been more than half a month. Are they not coming anymore?"

Sister Yun sighed, "I guess we can't take care of it. The Lin Mansion is in such a state. I don't know how many eyes will be staring at us when we come back."

Zhao Yao suddenly interrupted: "You two women are guarding such a big house. In order to prevent your things from being stolen, why don't you leave them with me and I will watch over them for you."

Mother Hu's face darkened and she pointed at the door with her cane: "Qiangyong, take your wife back. You have no right to interrupt here!"

Hu Qiangyong scratched his head and said, "Wife, it's cold outside. Let's go back first."

Zhao Yao was half dragged and half pulled away.

Yu Xifeng and Sister Yun pretended not to see anything.

Mother Hu noticed that Yu Xifeng was not talkative, so she took Sister Yun aside to chat about family matters.

The things were almost divided. Yu Xifeng got about 30kg of rice, which is 60 kilograms, more than 10 kilograms of flour, six pieces of cut steaks, a whole lamb chop, which added up to 15 kilograms, a bucket of oil, and the hefty piece of tenderloin, which was more than 10 kilograms.

There is also a box of salt, and each person can get a dozen bags.

Enough to marinate the meat.

There are also quite a few snacks of various kinds.

At present, each of these is a top-notch item. If you save a little, they will be enough to last for two or three months.

The bean sprouts are placed on top, and they are lush and green.

It’s really not easy to find some vegetables nowadays.

There is one in the hotel warehouse.

It’s not that Sister Yun didn’t want to take it, but after weighing the pros and cons, she still took the meat and rice that would fill her up.

Take this bean sprout Yu Xifeng back and cook it in the meatball soup.

I also added kelp, a handful of baby cabbage, and a small portion of potato chips.

She came out of the space after taking a shower, and the soup in the kitchen was almost cooked.

Drinking it makes you feel warm.

Spread black pepper sauce on the fried steak, cut into strips and eat with rice.

After eating, Yu Xifeng lay on the sofa to digest the food.

Release Xiaoju from the space.

Xiaoju landed lightly on the tiles and smelled the lingering rice aroma in the air.

Yu Xifeng had a great harvest on this trip and was kind enough to steam a crucian carp for Xiaoju.

It was served on a plate without any seasoning.

Xiaoju bit the fish bones with a crunching sound.

Sister Yun stir-fried the bean sprouts and made up her mind to fry a piece of lamb chop for herself.

After all, it is the raw material of a five-star hotel.

The lamb is original, slightly charred on the edges, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Hu Qiangyong's family was kneading dough, rolling out skins, mixing stuffing and cutting meat, and the chopping board was banging loudly.

Hu's mother is always very careful with her money.

After listening to what Hu Qiangyong had seen and heard that day, the dumplings were prepared with plenty of ingredients.

If you don’t eat today, who knows if there will be a tomorrow.
