Chapter 45: I want to eat candy

Gu Fei still had candy, but she was unwilling to give it to them.

Whether it was the young one or the old one, if they ask her for something, can’t they speak politely?

But each of them was aggressive and accused her as if she owed them something.

She won’t give it to them!

Gu Fei just shook her head: “It’s all gone.”

The old lady leaned on her cane and sneered: “I can tell, this girl hates me.”

“Your family keeps protecting you, a white-eyed wolf, let’s just wait and see!”

The old lady turned around and left. Gu Qing stepped forward and said, “Grandma, let me help you over.”

The old lady shook off Gu Qing’s hand: “I don’t need you. I can go by myself!”

Not long after the old lady left, Baoer’s crisp voice came from the yard next door: “Grandmother, where’s the candy you asked for?”

The old lady whispered something.

Baoer suddenly cried again: “I don’t care, I want to eat candy, I want to eat candy——”

People in the room looked at each other in confusion. Gu Qing sighed: “Bao’er, this kid has such a stubborn temper.”

Everyone picked up their chopsticks and ate in silence.

After eating for a while, Gu Zhang told Gu Erlang: “Go to your uncle’s house tomorrow and talk to him. It’s best if he can come with us.”

Then he looked at Li Chunhua and said: “The same goes for your natal family. You go back tomorrow and tell them what the village chief said. If they also want to leave, we can go together.”

Li Chunhua nodded her head.

Her natal family was in the next village, so it was easy to go there.

After dinner, Lanzhi volunteered to wash the dishes.

Mrs. Chen didn’t want her to do it, but she insisted.

Lanzhi was very anxious.

She was now a slave that Gu Fei bought for 1,800 taels. This much money was enough to buy a hundred servants. If she doesn’t work hard and just eats for free, the Gu Family will sell her.

Gu Fei returned to the house, lay down on the kang, and counted her things in the space.

There were more than a hundred bags of rice and flour in total, each weighing twenty kilograms. The total amount was more than two thousand kilograms, which should be enough to eat in the south.

There were also more than fifty boxes of mineral water from several brands in total, and one box contained twenty-four bottles. It seems like a lot, but it was not enough on the road. Drinking two bottles of water a day can be considered a small amount for a person.

There were many people in the family, she was afraid that it be wiped out in one day.

There was quite a lot of cooking oil, there were more than twenty of them.

All kinds of condiments were also available, and the rest included some snacks and other miscellaneous things.

There was only that little bit of fruit, so Gu Fei decided not to eat it for the time being and would eat it again when she had no other choice.

After taking inventory, Gu Fei took out the leathers that Gu Qing bought from the space. There were dozens of them in total, and they were piled together on the kang.

Mrs. Chen walked in and was stunned for a moment: “This leather is——”

Gu Fei guessed that Mrs. Chen had gone wrong and thought she was the one who conjured it up again: “Eldest brother went to buy it today. I was thinking about, making some sheepskin coat for you and Dad to wear in the winter.”

Li Chunhua also opened the curtain and came in, interjecting: “There are so many leathers, if they are better cut, everyone in the family can wear sheepskin coats.”

As she was talking, there was a crisp sound from the kitchen. Mrs. Chen slapped her thigh and said: “My bowl——”

Mrs. Chen rushed to the kitchen and saw Lanzhi looking at her with tears in her eyes. There was a bowl broken into eight pieces lying on the floor.

Mrs. Chen sighed. Her daughter didn’t say anything, but she could tell that this Lanzhi must be either a high-class maidservant or a young lady from the Marquis Mansion. She has thin skin and tender flesh. She must not be used to work.

Her daughter wanted to keep her, so she couldn’t do anything about it.

Ms. Chen softened her voice and said: “Forget it, just try not to drop it. It’s not like you do this kind of work in the first place.”

“Do you know how to sew clothes? Go to the room quickly. Xiao Fei told me to make a sheepskin coats.”
