Gu Qingyao did not say anything. Gu Yunshen walked out of the house, glanced at Gu Qingyao and said, “Go into the house and rest! Have an early night. I’ll wash these.”

Gu Qingyao glanced at her father and obediently went in.

She could hear her father dealing with Zhang Xiaohui behind her. Gu Qingyao could hear Zhang Xiaohui’s yells from the house. Then her father said a few simple words, and there was silence.

She held the keys to the kitchen. Silence meant that her father had dealt with Zhang Xiaohui, and she would not be having dinner tonight.

Gu Qingyao was in a good mood. The sky had turned completely dark now. She went to her living interspace to cook, preparing food for herself and Mo Beihan when they go up the mountain the next day.



Chapter 32: Going Up The Mountain To Hunt

The storeroom of the interspace had plenty of rice, so she just packed some.

Gu Qingyao found two bamboo tubes and packed them with sufficient rice.

Mo Beihan had made these bamboo tubes for her. Mo Beihan had brought her up the mountain before, and had used these bamboo tubes to carry food.

She prepared a portion of chicken with chillies, and a portion of pickled beans, then cooked an egg and vegetable soup.

Actually, she had some ready-made seaweed and egg soup in her interspace, but at this point, it would be too conspicuous to bring out seaweed in the village. Besides, there were plenty of vegetables.

The chicken with chillies was very spicy. Mo Beihan liked heavily seasoned food and would enjoy eating this with rice. He would also enjoy the pickled beans.

She packed all this into her lunch boxes, then went to prepare a few cloth sacks and a few small tools before she finished for the night.

Early the next morning, Mo Beihan came to get her before the sun had risen.

At this time, her grandparents had already gone to the cowshed and her father was already up. Only Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing were still snoring away.

In the kitchen, Gu Qingyao placed the dishes she had prepared the day before into a basket strapped to her back, then gave Gu Yunshen a few meat buns and three salted duck eggs.

“Father, bring these to the cowshed for Grandfather and Grandma. These duck eggs are quite tasty. Don’t be reluctant to eat them, I have some more! Remember to get rid of the eggshells when you’re done.”

Gu Yunshen smiled and patted her head. “I know!”

“I’ve taken all the fish and meat in the kitchen. Just make do with coarse grain for lunch, when I get back tonight…”

“Alright!” Gu Yunshen looked at his daughter with some amusement. “We’ve always eaten coarse grain. How much fine grain do we have anyway? You just keep those things. Are we going to stop eating the coarse grain in the house just because you have better things now?

“Yao Yao, remember, even if you have plenty, we cannot eat it every day, for every meal. If we do that, we will be discovered too easily. Also, keep your interspace a secret from everyone except me. Don’t even tell Beihan. You keep the good things for yourself, and don’t let anyone find out about them. We will carry on with our lives just as we did in the past. Do you hear me?”
