Chapter 124 - 124 You Have to Pay More!
124 You Have to Pay More!
Before Wu Liu could finish speaking, Pei Qian had already rushed in with Qian He.
Although his expression improved a little after seeing Lu Ze and Lin Suisui return safely, his expression darkened when he saw the dead gray wolves piled up on the plow.
“Gu Erlang, do you know how dangerous it is to enter the mountains on a snowy day in the north?!”
Pei Qian was really angry this time.
He knew that Lu Ze had always been bold, but he never expected him to be so bold!
“You guys were lucky this time and only encountered a small wolf pack. If you had really encountered…”
Pei Qian gritted his teeth. He took a deep breath and glared at Lu Ze, but didn’t continue. He had lost his composure today!
“From now on, you’re not allowed to leave the camp without my permission!”
With that, Pei Qian turned around and left like a gust of wind.
It had to be said that not only was Lin Suisui shocked by Pei Qian’s attitude this time, but even Lu Ze, who was standing beside her, was also a little shocked. He had known Pei Qian for a long time, but him losing his composure like this…
This was the first time he had seen it.
However, although it was strange, Lu Ze wouldn’t discuss this guess openly, especially since there were others around.
“Let’s sort out this batch of prey first!” Lu Ze helped Lin Suisui to sit by the bonfire before turning to discuss with Wu Liu and the others, “It’ll be even more difficult to deal with tomorrow.”
They should deal with it while the corpses were still warm. If they really waited until tomorrow to clean up, these wolves would be frozen!
Although Lu Ze’s actions on the mountain today were a little risky, his gains were substantial!
Therefore, the men worked hard together and pulled the plow out to clean up these prey.
Lin Suisui only rested briefly before getting up to take out the wine jar that she had drunk half of. She took out a small jar and soaked it in water before returning to help Mrs. Luo prepare dinner.
“I don’t need your help. I’ll get your sister-in-law to boil hot water for you. Make do with it and change your clothes first! Change out of this set of clothes. I’ll wash it for you tomorrow. It’s a pity to get such a good dress stained with blood!”
Mrs. Luo was an elder who doted on children. How could she let Lin Suisui help? As she pushed her to the side with a smile, she instructed her to quickly wash up.
Lin Suisui stayed with Mrs. Luo for a while and saw that she really couldn’t find any work to do. Fang Liu also came in with a kettle that had been boiled, so Lin Suisui went to clean up herself.
By the time Lin Suisui went to the side to change with Fang Liu’s help, Lu Ze and the others had already transported the meat back. This was Little White’s first time participating in a hunt and it even obtained prey, so it was naturally extremely smug. It followed beside Lu Ze and raised its little head cockily, as if it was afraid that others would ignore it.
“After you guys entered the mountain today, Mrs. He and her daughter came over again.” After Lin Suisui sat down, Mrs. Luo lowered her voice and whispered to her, “General Gao asked her daughter to go over and entertain him tonight!”
At the mention of what had happened in the afternoon, Mrs. Luo was really speechless.
What could she say? Tell Lin Suisui that Mrs. He had brought Fourth Madam around the entire refugee camp to show off this afternoon?!
She really didn’t know what there was to brag about!
“Then they might come again tomorrow.” Lin Suisui nodded. She wasn’t shocked by this news.
Miss Zhu wasn’t bad-looking to begin with. In addition, General Gao wasn’t picky about women. He rarely refused anyone! With Mrs. He’s smugness the previous few times she came, her daughter would definitely succeed this time!
“When did you become so mischievous?!” When Fang Liu heard Lin Suisui’s words, she couldn’t help but laugh. She raised her hand helplessly and pointed at her as she said in mock reproach, “But you’re right. Mrs. He can’t wait for the entire refugee camp to envy her!”
Lin Suisui didn’t care about these things. She was more worried about Gao Xuwei’s concubine.
She hoped that the mother and daughter would really get what they wanted this time and leave Gao Xuwei’s side safely to live the life she wanted!
At night, because of the venison Little White had hunted previously, they decided to eat roasted venison.
Lu Ze gave half of the deer’s meat to Little White, who had contributed the most. He took the rest and roasted them over the bonfire.
When the venison was about 70% cooked, a commotion suddenly broke out. Soon, the curtain they used to block the wind moved. Qian He poked his head in with a smile and said politely to Lin Suisui, “Madam Liu, there’s something I need your help with.”
Although Lin Suisui looked puzzled, she didn’t have the intention to make things difficult for Qian He. She stood up and walked out through the curtain. Her expression immediately darkened. “Are you guys crazy?!”
She wasn’t in the mood to teach them a lesson. She turned around and asked Mrs. Luo to help lift the curtain. No matter what, she had to carry the mother and daughter in to avoid the wind!
“Madam Liu, don’t be angry. This is all the general’s idea.” Qian He sighed helplessly and explained in a low voice, “The general thinks that it’s inappropriate for the woman to stay there, so he wants someone to move her out of the tent!
However, you also know that it’s cold now. Wouldn’t sending her to those small tents be equivalent to sending the mother and daughter to their deaths?!
Mr. Pei also saw that this woman was really pitiful and thought about how you had always been taking care of her health, so he wanted me to send her over. Please take good care of her.”
As Qian He spoke, he gestured for a nanny and a girl beside him to come over and greet Lin Suisui. Then, he turned around and took out a banknote to hand to Lin Suisui. Then, he said, “Mr. Pei requests that you take care of this woman. When we reach the base safely, he will reward you handsomely.”
“It’s fine for me to take care of them, but as you know, I can’t handle taking care of a pregnant woman and a child alone. I have to ask Mrs. Luo and her family for help!” Lin Suisui looked at the banknote in Qian He’s hand with disdain. Qian He understood what Lin Suisui meant—it was fine to take care of them, but they had to pay more!
