Farming Space: The Lucky and Lovely Lady Come to Farm Chapter 98

Chapter 98 Food is missing

Xiaohong responded, carrying the bucket and following the person fetching water.

Gu Qinglei finished cooking the stove, and Uncle Ma looked for Gu Fei, "Where's the rabbit meat?"

Gu Fei shook his head, "Uncle Ma, I'm afraid I can't eat today. Look around."

Uncle Ma didn't need to look to know that there were disaster victims all around him. He slapped his head and said, "Look at me, I've forgotten everything when I'm so greedy. I'll eat another day."

Ms. Chen directed Lian'er to cook a pot of porridge, put some dry vegetables in it, and distributed steamed buns to everyone.

While eating, Xiaohong's voice came from Qian's side, "Madam, you forgot to give me the steamed bread."

Qian said with a straight face, "What kind of steamed buns? None!"

"My family is running out of food and I can't afford to feed you. You can find another family. I have supported you for so long, so I am worthy of you."

Everyone understood as soon as they heard that Qian was reluctant to take the three hundred coins into the city.

Xiaohong bit her lip and glanced at Gu Fei's house. Everyone in the Gu family quickly lowered their heads and looked at the sky to avoid accidentally meeting their eyes.

Xiaohong lowered her head, then raised it after a while, and looked at Qian pleadingly, "Madam, I don't want to eat the steamed buns, so I'll sleep one night before leaving. It's cold at night and I don't have any bedding."

Seeing the girl's soft begging, Qian's heart softened for a moment, "Okay, just sleep for one night, and don't follow us tomorrow."

After dinner, everyone discussed together whether to pay the money tomorrow.

Gu Zhang didn't say anything. He was now thinking about how his family would have lived if Xiao Fei had not returned home.

The village chief sighed, "Just hand it over, there's nothing we can do about it."

 Mr. Zhang's family is quite wealthy, otherwise he wouldn't be able to afford a carriage. The cheapest horse costs about thirty taels of silver.

He sighed and said nothing. Just hand it over. What else can you do if you don't hand it over?

Even though my eldest uncle's house is in the mountains, he and his two sons are both good hunters. He can also make leather tanners. After a year, he can save at least ten taels of silver.

It's just that his family is used to saving and is reluctant to eat fine grains, so they still have a lot of money in their hands.

Gu Zhong still has his mother's pension money in his hand, twenty taels a year, and he has saved one or twenty taels over the years.

The only one who really has no money is Gu Rong. He only has a few coins in his hand, which is really not enough.

He grabbed his hair and was about to speak when Gu Zhang touched him and Gu Rong fell silent.

Shanzi's mother didn't say anything from the beginning to the end. There were only two people in her family anyway, so she could afford this little money.

Seeing that no one said they would not go into the city, Uncle Ma said: "Everyone, please rest early. We will go into the city tomorrow and buy everything we need to buy, especially food and water. We must prepare enough food and water. We will meet at the east city gate at noon." Let's go.”

 Everyone rested.

 Gu Fei was getting dressed early in the morning when she suddenly heard Qian's scream, "Where's my millet? Where did most of my bag of millet go?"

Everyone panicked when they heard this, and quickly checked their own food. Fortunately, it was all there.

Gu Zhong said impatiently: "Look again, you are stuffing that little food here and there all day long, who knows where you put it."

Qian frantically rummaged through everything in the car and sat down on the ground, "It's gone, it's really gone."

She suddenly got up and asked, "Who were the night watchers yesterday? Why did you keep watch so you didn't see anyone stealing anything from my house?"

The eldest uncle stood up and frowned, "I stayed with Dalang for half the night yesterday and didn't see anyone approaching the car."

　　"Your man is staying late at night, ask him!"
