time.Zong Bai watched his older brother, fearless of dirt, squat on the ground cleaning up the wolf pelts and bones. If he didn't help his brother, he'd have to work until nightfall alone.He gritted...After a good night's sleep, Fang Jinshu felt refreshed and energetic. She wasn't bothered by Zhao family's previous trouble at all. After getting up, she washed her face and brushed her teeth before heading out with Zong Yu to continue looking for buyers of medicinal herbs in the city.
She knew Zong Yu hadn't slept all night. She wanted to persuade her husband to stay at the inn and sleep, but she also knew Zong Yu would never agree. He only wanted to solve this matter as soon as possible so that he could rest properly.
Unfortunately, the two of them searched all over from east to west city, but no one dared to accept the herbs she had in her hands. It wasn't that they weren't interested, it was that they were afraid to take them.
As soon as the other party heard her name was Fang Jinshui, they immediately shut the door.
Fang Jinxiu was indeed a little annoyed. She hadn't expected the Zhao family to move so quickly, and she had also underestimated the influence the Zhao family held in Luoshui City.
After a morning of walking, Fang Jinshu felt utterly exhausted. Turning her head, she saw Zong Yu. Though he didn't look tired after a sleepless night, his stomach honestly rumbled with hunger.
Zongyu, who was usually so serious, rarely showed a hint of embarrassment on his face.
"Hungry" Fang Jinxiu was annoyed at her own negligence. Her husband's standby time was indeed super long, but he was also extremely easy to get hungry and consumed a lot of energy.
As a qualified wife, how could I let my husband go hungry while I run around
There's a small restaurant over there, let's go eat something.
Zongyu nodded and followed his wife into the restaurant.
After the two sat down, Fang Jinxiu called for the waiter. Zong Yu, though he had been to the county town before, had never wandered around or eaten in a restaurant. Feeling out of place in this unfamiliar setting, his body tensed up involuntarily.
It was the same at the Zhao family's.
Fan Jinshu noticed this detail and quietly took his hand.
"Ayu, take a look and see if there's anything you want to eat," she said, turning her head to point at the dishes listed on the restaurant's wooden sign.
I took a look around, everything was just ordinary home-style dishes.
The restaurant gave her a strange feeling. It wasn't big, and looking at the storefront, to be frank, it was a bit shabby. However, after she walked in, she found that there was free tea for guests on the table, and the teapot used for brewing tea was of quite good quality.
There are tables and chairs, and the interior decorations are simple yet refined, it's really strange.
I don't know what the owner of this store was thinking.
Upon taking another look at the prices of the dishes, Fang Jinshi breathed a sigh of relief. They weren't too expensive after all.
Zong Yi shook his head, indicating that he wasn't picky about food, "Whatever you order, I'll eat."
It's so good to raise him! Fang Jinshu couldn't help but pinch his straight face. Even though Zongyu had no expression, she felt that her man was so cute.
"Okay, I'll order something."
Considering Zong Yu's appetite, Fang Jinxiu ordered four meat dishes and one soup, a total of five dishes.
Zongyu immediately knew his daughter-in-law had ordered these dishes for him, and he felt a bit hesitant to pick up his chopsticks.
"Why aren't you eating" Fang Jinshu saw him pick up his chopsticks but hesitate. Wasn't his stomach growling
Zongyu frowned and looked at her, "Jinxiu, I can just eat steamed buns and not vegetables. You keep the money."
The man is tongue-tied and doesn't know if his wife understands what he means.
She wasn't trying to buy barren mountains and lacked silver. All this money spent on meat dishes could have bought him three or four days of steamed buns.
As long as he can fill his stomach, he doesn't care whether it's mountain delicacies or steamed buns and porridge.
Fang Jinxiu couldn't bear to let her own man live the rough life he used to. She had a good grasp of finances and wouldn't begrudge her husband this meal.
"Ayu, when the car reaches the mountain, there must be a road. That Zhao Jiu definitely won't give up on coming to find us. If we can't sell the barren land this time, let's just think of other ways and come again next time."
"Just enjoy your meal, don't worry about it."
Unfortunately, Zong Yu has never been one to be carefree. He's always carried the weight of responsibility on his shoulders since he was a child, and Fang Jinxiu's words didn't ease the furrow in his brow.
"Well, since you won't eat, I will!" Fang Jinshu directly picked up her chopsticks and took a bite of each dish.
"I've already touched all these dishes. Even if you don't eat them, the boss won't let us return them."
"I can't possibly finish all this by myself, A-Yu. Are you just going to watch me waste all this food"
After finishing her own portion, she picked up a chopstickful of meat and placed it in Zong Yu's bowl. The man was taken aback for a moment, understanding the wife's intention, and immediately buried his head, eating large mouthfuls.
