Surviving the famine: I made my fortune by helping others
Chapter 52: Fighting breaks out in Shanghe Village
Ye Chuyi followed the crowd curiously.
Several more stoves were set up today. Originally, Dujiawazi only had one big pot and three small pots, and they had to cook while eating. Now there are three big pots and several small pots.
The fish soup in several large pots has been boiled into a milky white color, and the aroma emanating from it is very tempting.
In the small pot next to them, the wives were skillfully making pancakes.
The men were not idle either. After collecting firewood, they sat by the fire and started to grill fish. They looked quite professional. The children next to them opened their eyes wide and watched them.
"Second Aunt's cooking skills have gotten even better!" Ye Chuyi praised sincerely.
"Taste it."
Aunt Du smiled without saying anything and served her a full bowl of fish soup.
"Then I won't be polite." Ye Chuyi smiled, took a sip from the bowl, and his eyes lit up instantly.
She is not a person who likes eating fish very much, but she has to say that this fish soup tastes unique, fresh and not fishy, and has a hint of sweetness.
"I didn't expect Second Aunt is so good at making fish soup. If we open a restaurant, it will definitely sell well."
Aunt Du waved her hand when she heard the compliment and said, "How can I be so good at this? This fish soup was not made by me. It was made by a little girl from Liushu Village. She prepared the fish for us tonight."
After Second Aunt finished speaking, a little girl was pushed to the front.
She lowered her head and twisted her fingers, her face was red all the way to her neck, and she stammered for a long time but couldn't utter a word.
"Hey, didn't Aunt Xiuer tell you? Don't be afraid. The young lady is a very nice person."
Aunt Du patted the little girl in a reproachful manner.
Liu Yunxiu raised her head in panic and shouted, "Miss." Then she quickly lowered her head.
This person is a social phobic, but also a pretty little beauty!
"Don't be afraid, you're a pretty good cook. Are you willing to help me cook with Second Aunt in the future?"
Ye Chuyi couldn't help but slow down his voice, "Little beauty, little beauty who can cook delicious meals, I love you so much!"
"Thank you, miss."
Liu Yunxiu's voice was still very low, but it was not difficult to hear the joy in it.
Aunt Du didn't feel unhappy at all. She had been responsible for preparing food for the village, and now someone was helping her share the work. She was very happy.
"Okay, let's go eat. The food will be cold soon."
As Aunt Du called out, everyone started eating. Those who had bowls drank the soup first, while those who didn't have bowls ate the pancakes and grilled fish while waiting for their bowls. The whole atmosphere was very good.
Ye Chuyi looked at the scene in front of him and felt very peaceful.
If she wasn't afraid of the danger of being pursued by the enemies behind her, she would really like to stay here for a few days.
"Isn't it just eating a fish? What's there to be happy about? You are a bunch of ignorant people."
Niu Hezhu tore the fish angrily, took a bite and threw it away, "What is this roasted thing?"
A small figure huddled next to him quickly picked up the fish and put it directly into his mouth without caring whether it was dirty or not.
"You useless thing, all you do is eat all day long." Niu Hezhu slapped the little figure hard.
The little man fell to the ground, but he still held the fish in his hand tightly and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Dad, Xiaoshan is your grandson. What's wrong with him eating a bite of the fish you threw away?"
The thin woman picked up the small figure and looked at it carefully again and again, her voice trembling.
They had been away from home for more than a month and had long been out of food. My father-in-law usually only cared about himself, but now that there were so many fish, he would rather throw them away than let the children eat a bite.
The young woman became angrier and angrier as she thought about it. When she looked up at her father-in-law, her eyes were filled with hatred.
"How dare you look at me like that? I'll beat you to death."
In an instant, the dark forest became a mess.
"Miss, the people over there are fighting, and it's very fierce."
Du Jiayi came over with a gossipy look on his face to share the latest news he had discovered.
"Do you know what the situation is?"
Ye Chuyi glanced over there and saw that the people from Shanghe Village and Dahuaishu Village were not in the open space, so he could not see any specific situation.
"I heard it was because of a fish..."
Du Jiayi recounted everything he had heard like pouring out beans from a bamboo tube, and then looked at Ye Chuyi with an expression that seemed to be asking for praise.
"Yeah, Xiaobaicai did a great job."
Ye Chuyi gave a perfunctory compliment, he really couldn't understand why they would start fighting when there were still so many fish in the river.
"The head of Shanghe Village has had this idea for a while, but I didn't expect a fight to break out right away."
Wang Chengde obviously knew more.
Du Jiayi curled his lips in displeasure, but soon looked at Wang Chengde with an expression seeking gossip.
The three of them squatted together and whispered for a long time.
Wang Chengde was not the kind of person who would speak ill of others behind their backs, but from his narration, Ye Chuyi still felt that he had a serious prejudice against the head of Shanghe Village.
Sure enough, honest people are not completely without ulterior motives.
"Miss, why don't you take this opportunity to drive away the people from those two villages?"
Zhao Wenzhu came over from somewhere, accompanied by Du Jiaren who had a similar expression.
"As long as they don't harm us, we don't need to worry about them."
It's not that she is a saintly person, she just thinks it's unnecessary. Maybe this scene is deliberately performed for her, so she is not in a hurry to get into the role.
"Where have you two been? Why are you back just now?" Compared to the two villages, she was more concerned about these two smart guys who were currently out of control. She seemed not to have seen them during the meal.
"Miss, we went to the back to take a look." Zhao Wenzhu replied respectfully with a smile on his face. He was about to report.
"The bandits behind us didn't continue to chase us. They stopped at the valley. We were afraid they were cheating, so we stayed behind to watch. In the afternoon, they suddenly withdrew."
"Withdrawn?"
Ye Chuyi instantly became alert. If they really withdrew, could they stay here for a few days?
"Yes, we followed them outside. They seemed to be in a hurry and left very quickly. They didn't even care about the people we left behind in the valley."
If they hadn't followed the group of people to chase them outside, they would have returned long ago.
"Okay, I understand. Let's go eat."
Although I don’t know what the exact situation is, it’s a good thing that the problem of pursuers has been temporarily solved.
Ye Chu was browsing the system mall while thinking about it. The Mother-Child Pill required ten points, and there were two people now. Why didn't the system issue the task yet?
Melancholy.
[Host, is it possible that you can control two people with the Mother-Child Pill?]
Baizai blinked his eyes innocently. Anyone who eats the mother pill will be loyal to the host.
"It seems to make sense."
Ye Chuyi touched his chin thoughtfully, "But wouldn't the person who takes the sub-pill be more loyal to the person who takes the mother pill?"
[In front of the host, the effects of the mother and child pills are the same, except that the child pill needs to be loyal to the mother pill as well. However, it is not completely irreversible, as long as you can endure the pain.]
"No, no."
Ye Chuyi shook his head firmly, "There's something wrong with your logic. If I can endure the pain, then it's reversible. That's definitely not 100% safe for me."
[For people other than the host, the pain of violating the mother pill will be reduced by five times, so the host does not need to worry at all.]
Everything produced by the system must be good, how could it be harmful to the host, Baizai hummed.
When Ye Chuyi heard what he wanted to hear, he happily bought a set of mother-child pills and gave them to them while they were having dinner.
