Chapter 28: Chapter 28 Repairing The House (1)

Zhou Ying knew she couldn't avoid it, so she asked, "Then how many people's meals do we need to take care of?"

"There are ten people in total, four carpenters and six handymen. They don't need anything complicated. Some steamed buns or flatbread and a big pot of vegetables would be enough.

"As for the pot, we'll go to town tomorrow morning to buy a big one. We'll be able to use it in the future anyway."

Zhou Ying nodded and told him about Gu Chengxi's visit.

Gu Chengrui nodded at her, too, letting her know that he understood.

After entering her interspace that night, Gu Chengrui gave himself two more IV bottles just in case. Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only

At dawn, Zhou Ying was once again awoken by the disaster in her dream. This feeling of being overwhelmed by her dreams didn't give her a good feeling.

She turned around, picked up the glass of water on the bedside table, and gulped it down in one go. Only when the cool water entered her stomach did she really wake up.

Her moving about in bed woke up Gu Chengrui too. He did not know what to say after knowing that she had had the same dream again. He could only hold her in his arms and silently accompany her to calm her emotions.

"Let's move out after tonight," he said. "Let's see whether you would still have this dream after we leave the Mother God Temple."

After Zhou Ying had prepped the big pot, she heated two pounds of peanut oil using their small pot and began deep frying the ten pounds of tofu.

Just as she finished, Qian Jiaxi's wife, Mrs. Bai, came over with two basins and said, "Good Morning, Zhou. You're hardworking, already this busy early in the morning."

"Morning, Missus. I started early because I feared it would take a long time to prepare the meals."

"I thought so, so here I am." After Mrs. Bai finished speaking, she placed the two basins she had brought on the ground and said, "Girl, what are you planning to cook for lunch?"

"I was just about to ask Mr. Jiaxi. I planned to go to the field and pick a few cabbages, then stir fry the meat slices with stewed cabbages and tofu. They would go well with a few large baked flatbreads."

"What's there to ask about? Just pick them and eat." When Mrs. Bai said this, she saw the large strip of streaky pork on the side and said, "I got to say, girl, you're sure generous to buy so much meat."

"Once everyone is content with the meal, only then will they have the energy to fix our house as soon as possible."

"That's true."

When Mrs. Bai heard her say this, she didn't say anything more. She was quite satisfied with her honesty.

Unlike some of the Gu families, they deducted their family's meals until they were worse off than the villagers when they were in trouble.
