The four couldn't believe their eyes.
I even suspected that they were hallucinating because they were so hungry. Why were there rice and meat in the boss's room?
They dared not move, fearing that if they moved, the illusion would disappear.
Only the increasingly heavy breathing sounds reflected their inner unrest.
They went down the mountain to look for food. Some of the villagers at the foot of the mountain had already started eating soil, and most people ate wild vegetables and grass roots.
The wealthy families did have food, but there were many people guarding their homes, so they did not dare to steal.
There were too many cases of people selling their children just to get a bite to eat in the county. The relief grain from the imperial court was slow to arrive, and whether they could survive depended on fate.
In those famine years with starving people everywhere, eating meat was such a luxury. The bandits dared not even think about it. They would be content with just a handful of grass roots.
And now the meat they had never dared to imagine was right before their eyes, and so was the rice, each grain was plump and round, better than any rice they had ever seen.
"Why are you all standing there like idiots? This is specially for you to eat."
After hearing Pei Yun's words, the four of them woke up from their dreams, their noses felt sore, they almost cried, and they were shaking with excitement.
Oh my god!
This is specially for them to eat, I can’t believe it!
These days all the wild vegetables and tree bark have been eaten up, but the boss still has rice and meat hidden.
However, considering that this mountain stronghold was founded by Pei Yun's father, it is normal to have some food stored in it after so many years.
Pei Zhong had taken away a large amount of food at the beginning, and what the boss took out now was probably the last stock.
The boss must have seen that they were very hungry and specially took out the food for them.
For a moment, everyone was deeply moved.
"Take it all and cook it. Feel free to eat as much as you want. I can't say you can have meat every meal, but you will have enough rice."
When the four heard this, they immediately felt that the boss might have a lot of food hidden, otherwise how could he dare to let them eat as much as they wanted.
They hurriedly moved the meat and rice to the kitchen and started cooking.
Soon the aroma of meat wafted out. The four men's throats kept rolling. They all gathered in front of the iron pot and kept sniffing, wishing they could scoop it out and eat it right away.
Soon, the rice and meat were cooked. A large table was placed in the middle of the village, and several people brought out the meat and rice.
Pei Yun had eaten the roast duck and was not hungry now, so he let them eat by themselves.
When the four heard this, they immediately started to eat voraciously.
The bearded man bit off a piece of fat, and oil stains flowed down the corners of his mouth. He didn't bother to wipe it, and let it flow down his chin and drip onto his dusty clothes.
As the pork went down his stomach, a sense of satisfaction instantly swept over his body and mind like a surging tide, and the rich and mellow aroma of the meat filled his mouth.
tasty!
It’s so delicious!
He finished the pork in his hand in a few bites, then grabbed another piece and stuffed it into his mouth.
When the second piece of pork was eaten, tears appeared in the bearded man's eyes.
I'm really a piece of shit!
The boss was so good to us that he was willing to give us such precious pork, and he gave us so much at one time. But I was a traitor to that bastard Pei Zhong.
Are you trying to dig Baldy and the others over there just to eat grass roots and wild vegetables every day?
Am I still a human being?
I feel ashamed towards the boss and towards these porks!
I don't want to be a traitor anymore. From now on, I will be the most loyal dog of the boss. No one can drive me away.
I will bite whoever the boss tells me to bite!
The other three people also felt guilty. They had actually wavered just now and wanted to go to Zhongxin Village to eat grass roots.
The boss took out such precious pork for them to eat, their hesitation was ridiculous.
Wild vegetable paste is such a delicious shit!
This is the real delicacy!
We feel so sorry for the boss!
The bald man swallowed the meat in his mouth and said fiercely: "Whoever dares to betray the boss in the future, I will cut him three times and six holes!"
Everyone nodded. If they followed the boss, they would get meat to eat. Only a fool would betray him.
Soon, the pork and rice were all eaten, and the four of them shouted with comfort. They hadn't had a full meal for several months, and this meal made them feel extremely satisfied.
The bald man picked his teeth and smiled: "If those who followed Pei Zhong knew that they were only going to eat grass, while we stayed here to eat meat, I'm afraid they would cry."
The others laughed too.
"Haha, let them regret it. Pei Zhong is no match for our boss."
"That's right. I, Ma Lian, will never submit to anyone in my life except the big boss."
The bearded man touched his stomach and said, "I heard from the people in Zhongxin Village that they only eat one meal a day, and each meal can only be allocated a few wild vegetables, which are then cooked into porridge with mashed grass roots."
"Even this is regarded as a treasure by the people of Zhongxin Village."
"We are eating pork and rice now. They probably don't even dare to think about the fragrant rice and greasy pork."
"Do you think if we tell them, they will be mad to death?"
After saying this, the bearded man burst out laughing.
The three of them looked at him with some contempt. You didn't say that before the meal, but now that you've eaten the meat, you're immediately mocking Zhongxin Village. You've changed so quickly.
Seeing that the three of them did not agree, they looked at him with a half-smile in their eyes.
The bearded man was a little panicked. Are you going to report me?
Seeing Pei Yun also looking at him, the bearded man became even more panicked. He knelt on the ground with a plop and was about to explain.
The bald man and others have already half-knelt down with their fists clasped together.
"Boss, although we have been following you, we have never expressed our loyalty to you. We will do so today. We are all rough people and cannot say nice things. From now on, we will never go west if you point east. If anyone dares to mess with you, we will fight him to the death."
