Chapter 6

After settling the problem of food, Chu Qingzhi returned to her room to sleep in peace.

The moonlight was as calm as water, and the wind blew in the mountains, causing the entire land to quieten down.

…

“Ahhh!!!” Madam Li’s scream echoed through the neighborhood early in the morning.

She came to the backyard to feed the chickens. Then, she saw four big wild boars lying there and was so frightened that she almost fainted.

When everyone heard the scream, they quickly ran towards the backyard. When they saw the four big wild boars, they were petrified.

It took a while for everyone to find their voices.

Chu Rong was shocked and asked nervously, “What’s going on?”

No one answered him because no one knew.

Chu Qingzhi walked out. She was woken up by Madam Li’s scream.

“The wild boars belong to us.” It was not easy to explain how she hunted the wild boars, so Chu Qingzhi secretly cast a spell to make everyone subconsciously believe her.

In the blink of an eye, no one cared how the wild boars came to their house.

After a short silence, Granny Chu said, “Go and check that wild boar. If it’s fresh, go to the county and sell it.”

Granny Chu’s words brought everyone back to their senses. The wild boars came to their house on their own. They did not steal or snatch it. Thinking of this, everyone slowly relaxed.

Chu Tai, Chu Rong, and Chu First hurriedly went forward to check and found that the boars were still fresh.

Chu Tai was Chu Rong’s father. Chu Tai said, “Chu Rong, quickly go and borrow the donkey cart from Third Uncle and go to sell the wild boars.”

Chu Rong replied excitedly, “Yes, I’ll go immediately.”

Chu Qingzhi walked towards Chu First. “Brother, will you go with them?”

Chu First nodded. “Yes. Grandpa will stay at home. I’ll go with Father to sell it.”

Chu Qingzhi said expectantly, “Brother, then buy me some breakfast. Don’t buy mine alone. Buy a portion for everyone.”

Chu First did not know if he should agree, so he looked at Madam Li.

Madam Li was frugal. “Qingzhi, don’t worry about us. We can make do with the leftovers.”

She understood that Chu Qingzhi was used to a good life in the county. She ate well and dressed well. She also wanted to dote on her daughter like this as long as the conditions allowed.

Chu Qingzhi thought for a moment and found it difficult to change Madam Li’s mind. “How about this? Don’t buy breakfast. Just buy more rice and noodles. Let’s cook at home.”

This was a good idea. Chu First agreed immediately. “Alright.”

Chu Qingzhi walked towards Chu Second and Chu Fourth. “Second Sister, Fourth Sister.”

Chu Second smiled and asked, “Qingzhi, what’s wrong?”

Chu Qingzhi smiled at the two of them. “Second Sister, Fourth Sister, I want to eat pancakes. Can you make pancakes for me?”

She wanted to eat, but she didn’t want to make it, so she had to trouble her two sisters.
