Wu Ziqiang's words shocked Zhou Sufen.
"Come to think of it, that's really the case.”
"But why did Yi Zhonghai spend so much effort? He doesn't owe the Jia family anything. This time, he didn't hesitate to sacrifice his reputation to trick you into going to the countryside?”
Wu Ziqiang saw that Zhou Sufen still did not understand, so he explained again.
Yi Zhonghai was a destitute man, and he was getting old. He wanted to find someone to support him in his old age, and his target was Silly Zhu.
After that, Silly Zhu would like Qin Huiru and matchmake the two of them. He would then have a place to retire.
If he could get his job done, it would be easier for him to retire.
Moreover, there was something fishy about it that Wu Ziqiang did not explain.
It was understandable for Yi Zhonghai to look for Silly Zhu for retirement, but why did he have to let Silly Zhu marry Qin Huiru?
This Jia Zhang-shi was so difficult to deal with, and the stick meme was also strongly opposed to Silly Zhu being a stepfather.
Why did Yi Zhonghai have to do such a difficult Epic Quest?
Wouldn't it be easier to deal with Silly Zhu alone?
Wu Ziqiang thought of the information he knew before he transmigrated. Yi Zhonghai sending noodles in the middle of the night was not that simple.
It was very likely that he wanted a descendant of his own.
However, for the sake of his reputation, he could not divorce a middle-aged woman, and a girl from a decent family could not bear him a child.
Qin Huairu, who had a heavy family burden and was a fertile woman, was definitely the best candidate.
The problem was that a widow giving birth to a child would be criticized in this era.
Then, he had to find someone to take over.
It just so happened that Silly Zhu was dead set on Qin Huairu, and this caught Yi Zhonghai's attention.
Hence, this was also the reason why Yi Zhonghai had to go through all sorts of difficulties to matchmake Silly Zhu and Qin Huairu.
However, these were not definite. They were just some guesses from Wu Ziqiang's clues.
"That Yi Zhonghai is so bad. There won't be a problem with the white flour he sent over, right?”
"Why don't we throw the white flour back to Yi Zhonghai?”
Zhou Sufen cried out in surprise. Her understanding of the world had been completely refreshed.
She had never thought so much about it before. She simply thought that Yi Zhonghai was a good person.
"Mom, don't scare yourself. Yi Zhonghai wouldn't poison us.”Wu Ziqiang said with a smile.
"That's right. Yi Zhonghai wanted to cheat my brother of his position, so we cheated him of a bag of white flour.”
Wu Xuhong had been listening for a long time. She clenched her fists tightly and gritted her teeth in anger.
Then, her stomach grumbled.
Wu Ziqiang laughed." Is your water ready? Are you still going to eat the rabbit?"”
"Alright, alright, I'll go get some water.”
When Wu Xuhong heard that, she immediately threw the unpleasantness to the back of her mind.
Then, he carried the wooden basin and prepared to fetch water.
"Be careful, I'm going to catch a rabbit.”
Wu Ziqiang smiled awkwardly.
Then, he grabbed the largest gray rabbit and killed it quickly. Then, he shed its fur.
He had also collected the fur that had been shed.
He treated it and gave his sister a pair of ear protectors. The rabbit fur would keep her warm so that her ears would not freeze in winter.
Zhou Sufen was busy cleaning up the wild vegetables and kneading the dough.
The more she looked at her son, the more she liked him.
It was hard to imagine that he had brought back so much food without spending a single cent.
Wu Ziqiang placed the rabbit meat into the clay pot and covered it.
"Brother, I can already smell the fragrance of rabbit meat.”
Wu Xuhong said happily as she pulled the charcoal into the stove.
"Little gluttonous cat, it's just been put into the pot. The water isn't hot yet, so there's no fragrance.”
Wu Ziqiang rubbed his sister's head dotingly.
"Gululu, zilala, zilala."
As the temperature in the stove rose, the clay pot began to boil.
The soup inside dripped down and fell on the stove, making a sizzling sound. The evaporated meat soup emitted waves of fragrance.
"It smells so good! It would be great if the soup that dripped down fell into my mouth. It was too wasteful.”
Wu Xuhong stared at the soup dripping down from the clay pot, and her saliva kept secreting in her mouth.
"Silly girl, if I drip it into your mouth, won't it burn your mouth?”
"You can't eat a hot rabbit in a hurry. There are many parasites and bacteria on this rabbit. You must cook it thoroughly before you can eat it.”
Wu Ziqiang explained gently.
The beautiful and cute Wu Xuhong was cute and innocent. From the bottom of his heart, he wanted to pamper this sister of his.
"Oh."
Wu Xuhong smacked his lips and swallowed.
She took a rag and lifted the lid a little to prevent the soup from boiling and spilling out. It would be a waste.
Then, she squatted beside the stove and roasted her cheeks until they were red.
Her watery eyes stared at the rabbit meat, as if she was afraid that the rabbit meat would run away in the next second.
As time passed, the fragrance of the rabbit meat became stronger and stronger.
Especially in this era where even food was a problem, hunger and lack of materials caused the fragrance of meat to be magnified several times.
"Alright, the meat is cooked.”
Wu Ziqiang placed the bowls and chopsticks, took two rags, picked up the clay pot, and placed it on the eight square table in the room.
This meal could be said to be very sumptuous.
Not only was there a steamed bun with Erhe noodles, but there was also a salad of wild vegetables. Zhou Sufen extravagantly added a few drops of sesame oil.
Most importantly, there was a casserole of rabbit meat.
As soon as they sat down, Wu Ziqiang gave Zhou Sufen and Wu Xuhong a piece of rabbit leg each.
Although the rabbit weighed three pounds, after removing its fur and internal organs, there was only about two pounds left.
There wasn't much meat on its head and body except for the rabbit legs.
After all, Wu Xuhong was an innocent and romantic little girl. After taking the rabbit leg, she blew on it and couldn't wait to bite it.
"It's hot, it's hot!"
This first bite scalded Wu Xuhong.
However, she was reluctant to spit it out. She breathed and rolled it repeatedly in her mouth.
"Eat slowly, no one is snatching it from you!”Zhou Sufen said unhappily.
"It's so delicious that my hair is standing on end.”
Wu Xuhong blew on the rabbit meat to cool it down. She chewed it in big mouthfuls and shook her head as she ate.
Wu Ziqiang sighed. In the future, food was abundant and resources were abundant. Many people did not take food seriously and wasted a lot of it.
However, in this era, eating a full meal and eating meat was a very luxurious thing.
This pot of rabbit meat didn't have any seasoning, only a little salt. The rabbit's fishy smell definitely couldn't be removed.
However, Wu Xuhong was still eating the rabbit meat with relish.
When he came back to his senses, Wu Ziqiang realized that the rabbit leg that he had given Zhou Sufen had unknowingly ended up in his bowl.
Zhou Sufen's bowl only had some wild vegetables and rabbit soup.
Wu Ziqiang felt a warm current in his heart. This must be his mother's love.
He knew that even if he gave the rabbit leg back to Zhou Sufen, she wouldn't eat it. It would definitely end up in her sister's mouth, so he might as well let her eat it.
"Little Red, you're still growing. Eat more.”
Wu Ziqiang poured all the meat into his sister's bowl.
"No, you and Mom eat. The scientists said that the first piece of meat was the most delicious, but the second piece was not.”
Wu Xuhong raised her head and picked out the rest of the meat.
"What kind of twisted logic is that? Which scientist said that?”Wu Ziqiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He knew that Wu Xuhong only wanted to give up the meat for them to eat. It was not that the second piece would not taste good.
"Scientist Wu Xuhong discovered it through research.”
Wu Xuhong grinned, revealing his pearly white teeth.
This cute scene made Wu Ziqiang and Zhou Sufen laugh.
