Chapter 41: One hundred times more delicious than maltose

Chapter 41 A hundred times better than maltose

The village chief looked at everyone with a complicated expression. Who wants to leave? He doesn't want to leave either.

His family has a row of brick and tiled houses and dozens of acres of land. Such a large family property must be thrown away in the blink of an eye!

He felt the pain of having his heart and liver ripped out, but there was nothing he could do.

It is clearly written in the Book of Heaven: people will die of hunger thousands of miles away, plagues are everywhere, and they will not be able to survive unless they leave!

The village chief didn't care after he finished speaking. It was up to everyone to decide whether to leave or not. He couldn't put a knife to someone's neck and follow them.

The crowd became confused, everyone was looking for advice from their acquaintances, friends, or brothers and sisters.

Gu Zhong looked around and finally found Gu Zhang, and quickly grabbed him, "Second brother, why didn't you tell me about such a big thing first? Are you really planning to escape?"

Gu Rong, the third eldest son of the Gu family, also squeezed over, "Second brother, it's not like we have to flee. If we do, what will happen to our house and land?"

Gu Zhang sighed, "I only got the news last night, and I haven't had time to tell you yet."

“Third brother, don’t worry about the house and the land. There is no food in the land anyway, and the house is not afraid of being stolen. We have to live first.”

Gu Rong was startled, "Second brother, do you really want to leave?"

Gu Zhang nodded cautiously.

Gu Rong only thought about it for a moment before making a decision, "Okay, then I'll go with my second brother."

He gritted his teeth and said, "Anyway, there are only three people in my family and we don't have a few acres of land. I wouldn't feel bad if it was thrown away."

The second brother is the only scholar in the family, no, in the whole village. Although he and the eldest brother are also literate, they can barely recognize a few words. The second brother is also smart. If there had not been an accident in the family that year, the second brother would have been a scholar. It's no problem.

He has been accustomed to letting his second brother make the decision on everything for decades.

Gu Zhong was still hesitating, "I still have to think about this matter."

Gu Zhang did not persuade him, and turned to Gu Zhong and said: "Go to the eldest sister's house tomorrow and tell her that no matter what, let her go with us."

Gu Zhong's heart skipped a beat and he even called the eldest sister. This second brother had made a big decision.

He was already inclined to leave, but he still said, "I'll go back and discuss it with Mr. Qian."

Gu Rong sneered, "Brother, my sister-in-law is a woman with long hair and short knowledge. Can you talk to her?"

Gu Qing stood nearby, and only then did he understand the purpose of the girl asking her to buy a mule cart.

Escape!

At this time, Gu Rong's son Huzi ran over and hugged Gu Fei's leg, "Sister Xiao Fei, I want to eat candy."

When Gu Fei went out, she stuffed a toffee into Xiaocao's mouth.

There was a bulge in Xiaocao's mouth. She hadn't finished eating yet, but Huzi saw her mouth moving, and when she came closer, she smelled another sweet fragrance.

Asked what she was eating, Xiaocao said vaguely: "Candy given by my sister-in-law."

The tiger came running away.

Gu Fei took out a candy and quietly tore off the packaging and called Huzi, "Open your mouth."

Huzi opened his mouth, and a candy slipped into his mouth.

His eyes widened, feeling the sweetness imparted to him by his taste buds. This was too delicious!

Before Gu Fei could say anything, Huzi ran away quickly again.

He ran to a few friends and showed off vigorously, "I have candy to eat, but you don't!"

A child pouted, "Who has never eaten candy? I just came out of the house after eating maltose."

Huzi opened his mouth and said, "It's not maltose. It was given to me by my sister Xiao Fei. It's delicious. It's a hundred times better than maltose!"

The friends couldn’t imagine what it tasted like a hundred times better than maltose, so they all looked at Huzi with envy.

The uncle’s Bao’er suddenly pulled Hu Zi and said, “Give me the candy!”
