"It's also possible that the village children, who had never seen food from outside, were curious and stole it!"
This was the only reason Yao Lin'er could think of.
Otherwise, who else would take it?
The two siblings from the Yan family would never even look at these few compressed biscuits!
The captain is even less likely to be one!
"Sigh... It's alright, it's alright."
"Didn't the village chief give us some dried meat yesterday?"
Qi Feng looked up and realized the dried meat hadn't been taken!
The fact that the cookies were still hanging on the roof beams further confirmed that the village children had been mischievous and stolen them.
Otherwise, why not steal the dried meat as well?
It must be because they're tired of it!
He took a piece of dried meat, tore it into three small strips, kept one for himself, and gave one to each of the Yao sisters.
"What's this smell? It doesn't taste like meat."
Mu Zi brought her nose close to the jerky and sniffed hard, but after a long time, she still couldn't smell the familiar scent.
She has a good palate; she can smell pork, mutton, beef, even donkey meat, as well as all sorts of rare meats, including wild animal meat.
But I really couldn't smell what this meat was!
"It might just be wild game from the countryside. Never mind, we're lucky to have anything to eat."
The chiffon cake has been sitting around for ages, and my stomach is growling with hunger.
Regardless of the consequences, they just open their mouths and stuff food into them.
"etc--"
The voice arrived before the person.
Yan Zhao pushed open the door, ran to him with lightning speed, and snatched the jerky from his hand.
"Big brother, isn't that a bit unnecessary? There's still so much jerky left, why do you have to snatch the meat from my mouth...?"
Qi Feng looked at Yan Zhao helplessly. He knew Yan Zhao didn't like him, but it was just a small piece of jerky, was it really necessary?
"I'm worried that you might get diarrhea from eating things of unknown origin."
"The villagers eat this all the time and they're fine. Aren't you worried about not being able to adapt to the new environment?"
"What else can we do? Let them starve to death!"
Chiffon couldn't win against him, so she simply plopped down on the dusty bed.
Who cares if it's dirty or not? Anyway, I'm all disheveled and my appearance is completely ruined!
Wait a minute, how come this guy is perfectly fine, with his clothes and pants completely clean?
Before he could voice his question, Mu Zi smelled the aroma of food.
She instantly beamed with joy and quickly squeezed next to Yan Zhao, "Little brother, do you have any food in your bag?"
“That’s right, my sister loves food and always brings some spare food with her when she goes out. You can eat ours.”
"We have enough food in our backpacks to last us for several days!"
He handed it over generously.
"One, two, three, four, five, six... six people!"
Mu Zi counted them one by one, then suddenly looked dejected. "How is that enough?"
"Your backpack is so small, it can't hold much at all. Forget it, I won't eat your food."
Of the two of them, only he carried a backpack; Miss Yan Miao came empty-handed.
Mu Zi simply didn't believe that such a small amount of food could be shared by six people.
And judging from how clean he looks, he must have brought a sleeping bag, so the food portion is even smaller!
Waaaaah, she doesn't want to eat jerky!
"I said I have it, so I have it. Hurry up and eat, and ask me for more when you're done."
"Otherwise, if you all die here, I'll have to go to the police station to give a statement, which is a hassle!"
That last sentence was said to Chiffon.
He was so angry he was practically fuming; he knew this guy wasn't being kind!
“That’s a new type of compression backpack from abroad. It can hold a lot of things, so please eat as much as you like.”
"If it's not enough, I'll share my brother's portion with you!"
Yan Miao stretched and leisurely walked out of the room.
Yan Zhao: Thank you so much........
"Alright, since you've said so, Miaomiao, then we won't stand on ceremony!"
Mu Zi really couldn't eat the jerky; it was a dark, unappetizing lump, just like Yan Zhao had described—
Who knows how many bacteria are inside!
It's not certain that it's exceeded the limit; what if you ate it and died immediately? Wouldn't that be even worse?
There are still so many beautiful places she hasn't been to, and so many tempting foods she hasn't tasted!
"So young... she perished in the wilderness, a beautiful woman with a tragic fate, starving to death in a foreign land..."
What was originally just a thought in her mind became increasingly tragic as she pondered it, and before she knew it, she had read it aloud.
Everyone who heard this was speechless.
Yao Lin'er didn't even want to stand next to her.
What a misfortune for our family! What a misfortune for our family!
How embarrassing...
“We already have all of that, and there’s still Lanzhou University, Miaomiao, could you spare one more for Lanzhou University?”
"He doesn't need it!"
Yan Miao flatly refused.
Qi Feng's heart skipped a beat. They weren't willing to give it to Lan Da?
Did he do something to make Miaomiao have a bad impression of him?
He wanted to explain on behalf of Lanzhou University, saying that he had known him for so long and that the man was very honest and had no bad intentions.
Yan Miao explained the reason first, "Don't you all have any ideas? Part of the jerky has already been torn off, and none of you ate it, so it can only be eaten by him."
"Since he can eat it all and is fine afterward, let's save some food."
"After all, he is strong and healthy, unlike us. If we really ate those unclean things, we wouldn't even be able to find a doctor."
Mu Zi compared the pieces of jerky and found that the larger piece was indeed much smaller!
A full third!
"None of us ate it, so it must have been Lanzhou University students who ate it!"
