Chapter 32 That move was really flashy.
The tall man immediately refused, but Xu Juanzi knew he was playing hard to get. She slowly explained the situation, "I'm really angry. If you're willing, I'll give you two or three taels of silver as a token."
"Let me tell you about that slut. Her parents died early, and to seek protection, she jumped into the water herself to marry my son. My son was useless; he was bewitched by this vixen and was conscripted to the battlefield by the court within half a year. They couldn't even find his body. This slut, on the other hand, not only embezzled the compensation money but also colluded with her lover to smash up my house. If it weren't for the famine, I wouldn't be alive today."
"Just now, that bitch even butted my sheep! People have pride, trees have bark, and people live to fight for their dignity. I'm just too angry to stand up for myself." Xu Juanzi pounded her chest, and the tall guy, having witnessed a great show for free, agreed.
If this old woman's daughter-in-law really looked like a vixen, she could make a fortune selling her to a brothel with a slightly higher price.
Thus, one was after money and the other after venting their anger, and they colluded with each other.
As night fell, Lin Zhaozhao, Lin Yangyang, and Li Yunyun arrived twenty miles outside Huichun City.
Having learned from Shou'an's experience, Lin Zhaozhao was much more cautious. She sent Grapevine to Huichun City to scout ahead, while they waited for news outside the city.
As the temperature dropped at night, Lin Zhaozhao first fetched hot water from her space to bathe Ping An, changed her diaper, applied prickly heat powder to every part of her body, fed her milk, and then put her in her crib to be looked after after she fell asleep.
Meimei is usually very boisterous, but she is extremely patient with her cubs. She can lie there for half an hour without moving, which Lin Zhaozhao greatly admires. Although Ping An is only seven or eight pounds, her hands are dull after holding him for half an hour.
Not having to hold the cub all the time, Lin Zhaozhao felt like a thousand wild horses were galloping through her mind, and she was carrying things out of her space like a squirrel hoarding food.
I'm in a good mood today, so I'll just have a simple meal.
A baking tray contains marinated pork belly, beef, enoki mushrooms, potatoes, sausages, lettuce, sliced garlic, green chili peppers, chili powder, and a simple dipping sauce.
Lin Yangyang and Li Yunyun were completely stunned; this was truly outrageous.
The two watched quietly as the pork belly was grilled to a golden brown. Lin Zhaozhao took out a lettuce, put on some pork belly with dipping sauce, garlic cloves, and chili peppers, wrapped it up, and stuffed it into her mouth. Lin Yangyang and Li Yunyun could hear the gurgling sounds of them frantically swallowing their saliva.
The commotion was so loud that even Meimei woke up. It bleated twice, its face full of displeasure. Lin Zhaozhao chuckled and put the little one, along with the bed, into her space, and gave Meimei its bowl.
In just a short while, when Lin Zhaozhao returned, the meat on the grill had been eaten, replaced by sizzling pieces of meat. Lin Zhaozhao glanced at Lin Yangyang and Li Yunyun, whose cheeks were bulging, and said, "You two are robbers, aren't you?"
"She was so angry (about what she ate)." The two blamed each other, and Lin Zhaozhao rolled her eyes. "Swallow what's in your mouth first, it'll be more believable."
With a flick of her finger, Lin Zhaozhao took out three cans of cola, drank one herself, and gave the other two to Lin Yangyang and Li Yunyun respectively.
