Chapter 66 Money over Life
Especially those exquisite boxes, they all made me imagine what was inside.
They were so envious they were almost insane; their desire to possess, coupled with their fear, was truly laughable.
The Zhang family was the most frustrated; Mrs. Qian stamped her feet and beat her chest as she looked at the gifts.
"Oh dear, those things should have been ours, they should have been ours, and they just ended up being given to that wretched girl like that."
Unexpectedly, Zhang Dashan slapped her hard across the face and said in a sinister tone.
"I think you're willing to risk your life for money, humph!"
After saying that, she turned and left. Qian shivered. After she came to her senses, she looked at Wang Po's house with reluctance and then went home with her.
The village chief, with his hands behind his back and a hunched back, walked away sighing.
In an instant, the village became quiet again.
Xiao Nan was inside the room at that moment, and he smiled as he looked at the contents of the box.
This young man really went to great lengths to prepare these gifts; for a country girl like her, they were just the right amount.
She closed the lids and put them all in the cabinet. These were gifts from Meng Fei's friend, so naturally she wouldn't put them in her personal storage space.
After finishing all that, she went to the kitchen. Thinking about the way he had looked at her earlier, she felt for some reason that there was something more to his gaze than met the eye. Maybe she was just imagining things.
Just as she started cooking, Longlong's voice reached her ears.
“Master, when you went to deliver the medicine that day, I wandered around the backyard of the pharmacy and saw this man inside the house.”
"I see."
"He definitely knows about your ginseng sales!"
"If you know, you know. If I don't tell you where the ginseng came from, who can force me to ask?"
"That's right. At worst, we can hide in the space and I'll take you away. As long as you don't come out, no one can do anything to you."
Xiao Nan suddenly thought of a problem: "Last time, you said you could take me anywhere within a hundred miles, but something seems off about that."
"What's wrong?"
"Why can it only be done outside of Ping'an Village?"
"I don't know, maybe this is where you're staying here."
Xiao Nan frowned: "Is it like the spawn point in a game?"
"It seems so. Otherwise, wouldn't I be able to take you around to play?"
"So, from now on, I'll be centered around Ping'an Village?"
"Yes, but when you are not in space, as long as you are standing, I will move within your range."
"understood."
Fortunately, Longlong was with her, so she didn't feel bored here, since Longlong's way of thinking was the same as hers.
Just like in her past life, women called their husbands "husband" and husbands called their wives "wife." But here, they call each other "husband" and "wife." At first, she wasn't used to it, but she's already trying her best to adapt.
In this cold weather, she didn't want to prepare one dish after another.
If it weren't for the space's preservation function, it would have really put her in a difficult position.
"Longlong, stand guard!"
"Yes!"
Soon, to Yunpeng's surprise, eight dishes, a soup, and a staple food of white flour flatbread appeared on the dining table in the living room.
Apart from the soup, everything else was readily available and just needed to be prepared.
The four of them sat down, and Yunpeng's eyes widened in amazement. These were dishes he had never seen before. Although the color and presentation were not as good as those in restaurants, the aroma was simply amazing.
Xiao Nan picked up a piece of fish for the old woman: "Grandma, eat carefully, there are bones, but not many."
Then she placed another piece of food on Meng Fei's plate: "Husband, eat! This dish has a strong flavor, you should like it."
"I like everything you make."
At this moment, Yunpeng's eyes were fixed on the largest basin, with a layer of red oil and seasonings on it, some of which he had seen before and some he hadn't.
Seeing that Grandma and Meng Fei were eating with relish, he also picked up a piece of fish, took a small bite, then took a breath and forced himself to eat it.
The fish slices were so tender, so fresh, and so spicy. Dragon Country also has chili peppers, but they're the long kind. He'd never seen the pointed kind before. Could that be a chili pepper?
He didn't bother to answer his own questions and ate first.
We've been traveling all the way from the county town, and we're starving.
He devoured each piece of fish like a starving ghost reincarnated. Meng Fei patted his head, signaling him not to just eat this one dish, as the other dishes were also delicious.
"Oh, oh, I'll try some other dishes."
Murong Yunpeng's eyes were fixed on the dishes, his pathetic appearance making Xiao Nan unable to suppress a smile.
Her skills were just average in her previous life, but she never expected to become a culinary goddess in this life.
The old woman shook her head as she watched him eat, feeling that he was even worse than the big man who came to her house to dig a well.
Xiao Nan immediately lowered his head and stopped looking. Meng Fei's face burned; he really wanted to give him a good beating.
After the three of them finished eating, they just watched him eat in silence.
However, there was a benefit: his way of eating made the three of them hungry again.
This reminded Xiao Nan of the mukbang videos from his past life; watching them eat was very appetizing.
After he finished eating, Grandma and Xiao Nan cleaned up the dishes. When Meng Fei saw the two of them leave the living room, he angrily slapped him.
"What haven't you eaten? Is it really necessary to act like this? Aren't you ashamed?"
"Hey, this food is so delicious! I ate a lot, which means my sister-in-law is a great cook. This is a way of praising her, don't you think?"
Meng Fei was speechless. He pointed at Yun Peng and said, "Get out of here tomorrow!"
"No, I'm not leaving. I want to stay a few more days. This is the best food I've ever had in my life."
“If you don’t leave, I’ll immediately send someone to the family you’re engaged to tell them you’re here.”
"If you're not afraid of being exposed, then say it!"
"I'm not afraid, anyway I'm planning to bring my wife back with me."
Murong Yunpeng stood up abruptly, pointed at Meng Fei, and said, "You're ruthless!"
"Hmph, stay one night, I'll take you back tomorrow."
"My men returned to the county town in three days."
"Not in town?"
"No, there's nowhere to stay with Manager Liu, so we have to go back to the city."
"Then you better behave yourself and don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."
"Hmph, I'm too lazy to ask."
At this moment, Xiao Nan came in, and the two immediately became very friendly, chatting and laughing.
She poured the tea she had brewed for the two of them: "Here, after eating so much meat, have some fruit tea to cleanse your palate."
Yunpeng's eyes lit up, and he picked up the teacup to drink, but seeing Meng Fei's murderous gaze, he immediately began to drink politely.
After taking a small sip, I looked into the teacup and wondered why there were no tea leaves or fruit inside.
"No need to look, I've filtered out the tea leaves, so you don't have to blow on them when you drink it."
"Sister-in-law, this tea tastes sweet and sour to me, what's in it?"
"I made some hawthorn jam and mixed some of it in."
"Red berry jam?"
Meng Fei didn't want his wife to waste her breath on him, so he chimed in, "It's the fruit used to make candied fruit."
"Wow, the taste is absolutely amazing when paired with tea?"
Xiao Nan asked, "Shall I give you my name?"
Meng Fei slapped his forehead, realizing he'd been so busy scolding him that he'd forgotten about it, and quickly said...
"He is a friend I made, named Murong Yunpeng."
"Hello, my name is Xiao Nan."
"resemble?"
"Um"
Murong Yunpeng looked at Meng Fei: "Sister-in-law is so skillful, could she be the missing daughter of the Xiao family in the capital?"
"The Xiao family?"
“Yes,” he glanced at Xiao Nan, but the words he was about to say took a different meaning.
“You wouldn’t know this in a small village like this, but I’ve traveled all over the country and I’m very well-informed. There’s nothing I don’t know.”
Meng Fei understood, and he asked, "Do you know anything about the Xiao family?"
Yunpeng glanced at Xiao Nan again, seeing her looking like a bystander, and didn't take it seriously, saying:
"I heard that the head of the Xiao family is a Jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examinations) and serves as the prefect of Fengzhou."
"Fengzhou? Isn't that our prefectural city?"
