Zhou Ying was stunned for a moment and nodded.
“You’ll be 18 after your birthday.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he chuckled and kissed her on the cheek. “I can finally have my feast.”
Zhou Ying understood what he meant, so she pinched his waist and said, “Don’t forget, you’re only turning 19 in September. It’ll be more than a year before you turn 20.”
“Men and women are different. Men just need to pay more attention to the frequency and supplement more.
“I’m just afraid you’re not developing well and will hurt your body when you give birth.” Gu Chengrui chuckled.
Zhou Ying rolled her eyes at him. She stood up and said, “Your brain is always in the gutter.”
Although her words were full of disdain, she was happy internally.
They had been husband and wife for many years in their previous lives, so they were used to doing it.
It wasn’t easy for him to endure and wait for her in their new lives for nearly three years.
Seeing this, Gu Chengrui did not say anything else. Otherwise, he couldn’t hold it in any longer.
Therefore, he immediately got up, locked the door outside, and returned to the room. “Let’s go into the inters.p.a.ce; there’s a batch of medicinal herbs that need to be collected.
“There are also some chickens that need to be cleared up.”
Zhou Ying nodded and went into her inters.p.a.ce with him to get busy.
After dealing with the chickens, Zhou Ying also butchered a batch of wild ducks.
She took about 20 wild ducks and put them in a huge outdoor oven to be roasted, planning to make beer ducks.
Zhou Ying also took two butchered chickens and roasted them.
After the two finished their work, they ate a roast duck and went to sleep.
Zhou Ying did not go to the manor the next day, as Gu Chengrui sent a roasted duck over.
After that, the couple brought Er Zhuang and Gu Chengxi up the mountain to look for more medicinal herbs.
Zhou Huaiming returned with some beef jerky three days later and left for the military camp.
Half a month later, when everyone was sleeping soundly on a particular night, they suddenly heard a series of blood-curdling screeches.
Immediately, the entire village was startled awake.
“Did something come down from the mountains?” Zhou Ying asked after she got up.
Gu Chengrui put on his clothes and replied, “It’s hard to say, but it doesn’t sound like anything good.”
“Put on your clothes and wait at home. Don’t go out,” he added.
“No, I think I’ll go with you.” After Zhou Ying said this, she remembered the swords left in her inters.p.a.ce by a.s.sa.s.sins who tried to kill them.
“One for each of us, just in case,” she immediately took out two swords.
“Alright, but you have to listen to me.” Gu Chengrui was afraid that she would be in danger if she stayed at home alone, so he nodded in agreement to her coming along.
Then, the two of them locked the door and walked out with their knives.
When they came out, many people gathered on the street, rushing to the village entrance with weapons.
When they arrived at the street, they found it was not a wild beast from the mountain but a dozen refugees from unknown places.
The families at the village entrance were all robbed by them, and they even took a few elderly and children as hostages.
Now, they were confronting the villagers.
The village chief stared at the people before him and demanded, “Who are you people? What are you trying to do? Hurry up and let them go. Do you know that this is against the law?”
“Bulls.h.i.t, what law? Whoever has the tougher fist is the law nowadays.” The leader of the refugees looked at the village chief with disdain.
“Don’t move, or I can’t guarantee that the people in my hands will stay alive.”
“What do you want, then?” The village chief asked in a bad mood..
