My Husband and I Brought Hundreds of Millions of Supplies to Farm - Chapter 149

149 Chapter 149 Specially Waiting For Them

“It looks like our hard work wasn’t in vain. I see that there’s still some lamb spine left, so let’s have a hearty meal and finish all the remaining dishes. How about it?” Zhou Ying glanced at the tired crowd and suggested.

Li Yue, in particular, was nodding off. She was about to fall asleep.

However, they immediately perked up when everyone heard Zhou Ying’s offer. Then, everyone started to set the food up, and soon, the hot pot was served.

After the meal, Zhou Ying spoke up, saying, “Everyone looks tired, so remember to boil some water to soak your feet. You all can wake up a bit later tomorrow.

!!
“I’ll have to trouble you to get the meat earlier tomorrow,” she looked at Fang Qing and added.

“Don’t worry, Madam. I won’t delay anything.”

“Alright, we’ll be going back now.” Zhou Ying ended the discussion as she stood up.

“It’s already so late. May I humbly suggest that you two stay here for the night?” Li Sheng suggested.

“No, I still have things to do at home. Remember to lock the doors and windows at night before going to bed.” After Zhou Ying finished reminding them, she walked home with Gu Chengrui.

What they didn’t expect was for Tian Jiawang to follow them. Gu Chengrui turned his head and said, “Brother Tian, you don’t have to come with us, and we’ll just let your sister know that you won’t be coming back for the night.”

“It’s fine. I’m worried about the three of them at home. It’s alright since I have you two to accompany me. Let’s go.” Tian Jiawang explained as he headed forward.

The couple could only follow behind him.

In the village, Zhou Ying could hear Er Zhuang’s aggrieved whining from afar. She turned her head and asked, “Rui, why don’t we bring Er Zhuang along when we go out tomorrow? We shouldn’t starve him anymore.”

“You can take him out if you want to. It’ll be safer to have him with us on the way back, but don’t leave anything valuable in the house.”

“I know.”

“Brother Tian, ” Gu Chengrui said when they arrived at his house. “We will set off tomorrow at 11 am tomorrow.”

“Alright. Just call me when you’re leaving,” Tian Jiawang walked home after saying goodbye.

After the couple returned home, Gu Chengrui went to heat the brick bed while Zhou Ying entered her interspace and quickly made half a pot of black noodle soup for Er Zhuang, adding two sticks of sausage to it.

Er Zhuang only stopped whining after he had a hot meal.

After that, the husband and wife went to the interspace to take a hot bath before going to sleep.

The next day, the couple cleaned up the house and rushed to town with Tian Jiawang and Er Zhuang.

It was another busy day, but because there was no discount, the number of people was smaller. But their daily income was still more than 200 taels of silver, which relieved Zhou Ying. Otherwise, she was afraid she could not afford to hire this many people.

They used up an average of four sheep and about half a cow, so 200 taels should be enough to cover their daily expenses.

As things got more stable, Zhou Ying’s daily tasks were reduced. She no longer needed to do anything besides cook the base ingredients and dipping sauce.

Mrs. Li took over the task of slicing meat. Zhou Ying found an environmentally friendly black paint to modify the meat-slicing machine to pass off as something normal to avoid attracting attention.

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed. The restaurant’s business was on the right track, and Gu Chengrui’s clinic was getting busier.

One evening, as Zhou Ying brought Er Zhuang home, they saw Father Gu wandering around their house as soon as they entered the village.

When he saw her, he stood still; this was how Zhou Ying knew he was waiting for her or Gu Chengrui.

“Father, are you alright?” She walked over after a moment of hesitation.

Father Gu nodded and smiled dryly. “Why did you come back alone? Where’s Chengrui?”

“He still has patients, and he might have to stay at the clinic tonight.”
