Chapter 88: Soaked



After hearing what Chen Xinli and the official said, Yun Gu looked at the yellow mud water on her hands and suddenly felt that it no longer smelled good.

Afraid that the bugs inside would be eaten, he immediately poured it out and came back.

Having just drunk someone's ginger soup, she guessed that the family would not refuse.

But she didn't expect Chen Xinli to just glance at her calmly: "Okay, but you need to pay with money!"

"How can you be so stingy, kid? It's just a little water."

Yun Gu almost pointed at Chen Xinli and said something.

"Yes, it's just a little water. We are just peasants and don't have anything valuable on us, but we are still thinking about the silver!"

Chen Xinli was busy checking the filtering device and replied with a sneer.

"you……"

Yun Gu was silent, her expression was so ugly that it was scary.

Thinking of the young master behind him who was in urgent need of water, he took out a tael of silver and said as if it was a gift: "I want to buy this wooden basin of water from you."

"One ounce of silver for a small wooden barrel. Take it if you want."

Chen Xinli can't tolerate the other person's bad habits.

She always felt that Yun Gu was intentionally or unintentionally thinking about something on her.

If we say that Yun Gu took them in and loved her brother at the beginning, at least she saved the young man's life.

Although the young man has been in a coma.

But Chen Xinli didn't want to get involved in too much trouble.

At first, when a few people followed them, she didn't think anything of it.

But Yun Gu's purpose is becoming more and more obvious. She is either thinking about Ahua or the chalcedony essence, which makes people very uncomfortable.

Yun Gu threw down the silver and left, taking with her a small wooden bucket of water.

Seeing that the amount of filtered water began to increase, Chen Xinli set up a large pot on another fire and asked her mother to boil more water for later use.

She and Li Xiang bought this pot in Anzhou Prefecture.

They all got caught in the rain today, so it would be nice if they could have some hot water to warm themselves up.

If not, everyone can drink more hot water to get rid of the cold.

"Hey, this rabbit is too skinny. Why is there so little meat on its body?"

Li Xiang sighed as he dealt with the rabbit.

Soon he peeled off a complete rabbit skin, and there was not a trace of blood on the skin.

Chen Xinli couldn't help but admire: This technique is great, just as good as when he skinned the wolf before.

I wonder how many animal skins this Mr. Li has peeled off?

Chen Xinli looked at the thick stack of wolf skins on the carriage and thought to herself.

Kuai Wei on the side was also cleaning the rabbit skin.

"It's probably because of the drought. The vegetation is scarce, and even the small animals in the mountains can't eat good grass, so naturally they can't grow meat."

Shen Fugui patted his legs and massaged them, chatting with Li Xiang from time to time.

"Yes!"

Li Xiang agreed while he was busy.

Chen Xinli looked at the other two rabbits beside her. Although they were covered with soft fur, she was afraid that they would be the same as the first one after peeling it.

But with so many of them, I guess each of them would only be able to make a few bucks and it would be gone.

While no one was paying attention, Chen Xinli quietly left the cave and hid in the grass a little further away from the cave to think.

Looking at the grass on the ground, the little girl's eyes lit up.

After looking around and seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she quietly took out four living creatures from the space and rinsed them vigorously in the mud.

"Brother, look, it's a pheasant!"

Chen Xinli was very proud of her actions.

But the eldest brother seemed to be no exception. He immediately helped his sister cover up and glared at her:

"Oh, this pheasant, I'm afraid it's frozen silly!"

Chen Xinli stuck out her tongue obediently.

At this moment, with the heavy rain and the cover of the sky, Chen Xinli was no longer worried about the difficulty in taking the chicken out.

"My dear granddaughter is so lucky! These four chickens look so fat!"

Because Old Mrs. Wu was digging wild vegetables, she was the first to see the pheasant in Chen Xinli's hand.

Ever since she joined the exile team and was taken care of and given medicine by her granddaughter, Old Lady Wu automatically started to address Chen Xinli as her granddaughter.

"Grandma, we're having chicken tonight. You and Grandpa should eat more to replenish your body."

Chen Xinli pointed at the chicken and said with a smile.

"Good! Good! You are such a good grandma!"

As Old Mrs. Wu spoke, wrinkles appeared on her face, and two lines of hot tears rolled down the wrinkles on her face.

Afraid of being seen, the old lady hurriedly turned her head to wipe it, then turned back and said in a warm voice:

"My dear, eat more too. Look at your skinny little arms."

Chen Xinli was wrapped in wet clothes, and the little girl's slender arms were faintly visible, and she was indeed thin.

Old Lady Wu took two or three steps forward and pushed Chen Xinli into the cave. "Go in quickly and warm up your clothes. Don't catch a cold like your brother."

At this moment, the rain has stopped and the surroundings are eerily quiet.

Old Mrs. Wu was in a particularly good mood.

I saw her pick up the four chickens and weigh them, her mouth was wide open for a long time.

These are all her good days!

When she was at the Wu family, no one ever told her to eat more.

Several daughters-in-law were worried that she didn't do enough work.

Ever since she followed her daughter's family into exile, Old Mrs. Wu realized that there is another way to live life.

Although it was a bit thrilling, the family lived in harmony, and that's what life is all about!

After her back injury healed, Mrs. Wu felt like she had been reborn.

Now, no matter how I look at my adorable granddaughter, I feel satisfied.

The old lady was very happy.

The little brothers who were busy fetching water were also very happy!

After filling the water, several people stared at the chicken carefully and licked the corners of their mouths, as if recalling some mysterious taste.

And a few ravaged chickens are now trembling.
