Traveling through ancient times

Chapter 26 I Want to Eat Baked Sweet Potatoes

Gu Wenzhi stopped, still holding the backpack in his hand, his back straight, expressionless, just standing there! Luo Feimo also stood behind him, stopped, and said nothing!

In the cave, Mrs. Gu's hoarse voice rang out again: "My dear grandchildren, wait a moment. Let your mother steam the wild boar meat for you. After you have filled your stomachs, wait for that evil creature to come. Even if you ask him to go hunting for you, he won't be able to catch any in a short while!"

Qin's voice rang out again: "Mother, I don't know where those three bastards have gone. They are as slippery as loaches, and they are getting bolder and bolder. Do you think they have something to rely on now?"

"They are just three hairless bastards, how can they do anything wrong? Even if they have support, I am still afraid of them. They can't get over the fact that they are filial piety! Humph!" The words of old lady Zhou came out with a smug and disdainful tone!

Gu Wenzhi's face darkened. Once upon a time, he and his elder brother worked very hard, hoping to help lighten the burden on their parents and gain recognition from their grandparents. However, what they got was even worse harm!

Mom is gone, dad is gone, now there are only four siblings left, and the eldest brother is gone, so he is the pillar of the family! Although I didn't hear grandpa's voice, but grandma can make such a fuss, that must be approved by grandpa!

My grandfather looks cowardly and incompetent on the surface. If I hadn't overheard the conversation between my grandfather, my eldest uncle and my fourth uncle one night, I really wouldn't have been able to see their true colors!

Thinking of this, Gu Wenzhi suppressed the anger in his heart, turned back and signaled Luo Feimo to take the backpack, and he walked to the next house!

Luo Feimo understood what he meant, walked into the cave with a stern face, and said in a cold voice: "This is the medicine that Gu Dalian and her sister picked for treating colds. Gu Wenzhi asked me to give you half of it. Cook it and drink it!"

Gu Damei, who was sitting in the middle, hurriedly got up and brought a basket. Liu Daqiang had already picked up a basket and was walking forward, but when he saw Gu Damei running a few steps, he stopped where he was!

Gu Damei was smiling as she only looked at Luo Feimo. She even tripped and said without stopping, "Mr. Luo, you have worked hard. I am very grateful!" She glanced at him with her almond-shaped eyes, her cheeks flushed, and she handed the basket to Luo Feimo!

Luo Feimo's handsome face darkened. He raised his leg, turned a corner, walked straight towards Liu Daqiang, poured half of the herbs into the basket, turned around and walked out of the cave!

Gu Damei was so embarrassed that her face and neck turned red with anger. She stomped her feet repeatedly, covered half of her face with one hand, and quickly returned to her bunk, lying there crying!

Gu Dazheng was talking to Old Man Gu and Gu Si. Seeing his daughter crying sadly, he winked at Qin. Qin went over and patted Gu Damei's waist, whispering something.

Qin and Yao had already put together a simple stove made of stones to steam meat! After Qin left, Yao stayed alone in front of the pot. Gu San also came over and took a deep breath towards the pot: "What a nice smell!"

Yao turned to Gu San and said, "Did you see that? Da Mei was so close to him. She wasn't afraid of being laughed at! She really brought shame to the Gu family!" Gu San said, "Where are my elder brother and his wife? Why do you mind your own business?"

Gu Meihua on the side heard it clearly and snorted coldly: "Sister-in-law, don't think that I, your younger sister-in-law, am talking about you. Damei is not a child anymore, don't let her do anything shameful. It's embarrassing and it will be bad for her reputation if it gets out! If the girls in your family don't want to get married, my Meili will have to look for a husband in two years!" Liu Meili's face turned slightly red and she tugged at her mother's sleeve!

Qin was so angry that she had tried to persuade Damei, but she felt upset inside and her face turned pale and blue. Even Damei, who had just sat up, fell down again on the stone floor covered with a mattress!

Yao had been listening with her ears perked up, secretly laughing, and added a few more firewood to the stove!

Old Lady Zhou, who had been silent for a long time, slapped the pillow beside her fiercely. When there was no sound, she picked up the stick lying beside her and threw it into the open space in front of her, cursing:

"You bunch of bastards, can't you just be quiet for a while? You have so much energy but nowhere to use it, right? Why don't you get out of here, stroll around the mountains, and argue with the beasts there. See if those beasts will reason with you or eat you up? You're always making trouble!"

When everyone saw that Old Lady Zhou was angry, they all turned into quails, some pretending to be asleep while others working, and everything became quiet in an instant!

Luo Feimo hurried over to catch up with Gu Wenzhi, feeling heavy in his heart: "What kind of life did these three siblings live every day before? There are really not many good people in the Gu family, they are all black-hearted bastards!" Luo Feimo said to Gu Wenzhi: "Brother Gu, don't think about anything now. When you get out of the mountain in the future, come to me if you have any problems. I will do my best!"

Gu Wenzhi turned around and looked at the young man whom he had only known for a few days. Although they were not from the same class, he could clearly feel Mr. Luo's kindness. Many details also showed that Mr. Luo was not a bad person!

Gu Wenzhi felt warm in his heart and his eyes softened. He slowed down and walked into the third cave side by side with Luo Feimo. After putting down the herbs, the two followed each other back to their own caves!

The footsteps of the two woke up the Gu Dalian sisters. They should have nothing to do in the next two days, so they discussed going out to hunt some wild animals to eat! The unhappiness just now disappeared in an instant. The four of them used the traceless footwork to bypass the side of the mountain. In less than a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the next mountain!

The mountain is not very high, with old trees and thick forests, but there are birds singing and flowers blooming. There is a hillside with a fragrant flower scent, and all kinds of flowers are crowded together, which makes people dazzled! The white tiger heard the call of its master, ran over, and carried Gu Xiaolian around the mountain!

Gu Xiaolian's crisp "chuckle" laughter was heard, sometimes in the east, sometimes in the west. This selfless laughter infected everyone, and the three of them began to let go of themselves, jumping up and down all over the mountain! Sometimes they competed with each other in leg strength, and sometimes they ran to the top of the mountain to fight, until the four of them were hungry, and then they found a flat place to sit down!

Gu Dalian thought about it, cooked the dumplings with mushrooms, fungus, shepherd's purse, and pork belly, and brought them out. The aroma rushed straight to their heads! Several people greedily took chopsticks and stuffed them into their mouths! The delicious taste was something they had never tasted before, and they ate until tears flowed down their mouths!

After the meal, they strolled around. Gu Dalian said: "I ate a lot and I'm afraid I can't digest it, so I'm just strolling around!" When they went up the mountain, the four of them competed in Qinggong and didn't even bother to look at the scenery along the way. Now, they all looked around, grabbed a handful here, pinched a pinch there!

Gu Dalian turned her head and suddenly found a place that seemed different from the others. She leaped over in two or three steps, jumped a few times happily and shouted, "Oh, my roasted sweet potato!"

Gu Wenzhi and his companions were puzzled and ran over! They saw Gu Dalian digging with a shovel. In front of them was a large patch of plants with pointed heart-shaped leaves in yellow-green, dark green, and purple.

Seeing that the soil was loose, half soil and half sand, Gu Dalian had no difficulty in shoveling the soil. She was excitedly digging the soil with the shovel when, with a "click", she realized that a sweet potato had been chopped in half. She quickly threw away the shovel, reached out her hand to dig out the sand, and Gu Xiaolian was so happy that she also lay down, stuck out her butt and started digging the soil!

After a while, Gu Dalian threw out two red tubers. Before the two sisters could react, they joined forces to grab a large row of red tubers. There were more than ten tubers packed together, and each tuber weighed nearly two kilograms. Gu Dalian said, "Quick, find a place to light a fire. I want to eat roasted sweet potatoes!"

Light a fire and bury the sweet potatoes in the fire. After a while, a sweet smell came out! Gu Dalian waited on the side, and her intoxicated expression made everyone laugh!
