163 Chapter 163 New Year’s Gift (6)

“Well said. Only those who have suffered will know what is sweet.” Madam Qiao nodded in agreement.

She then looked at Zhou Ying. “Ying, I’m sorry that you’ve suffered in this family. Thank you for bringing Chengrui along and supporting your little family.”

That’s right. Madam Qiao had always thought that a young master who had never suffered wouldn’t be enlightened that quickly. She could still see that her two sons hadn’t completely let go of their luxurious past.

Only Zhou Ying, who had grown up at the bottom of society, could survive tenaciously and influence Gu Chengrui simultaneously.

This was also why Madam Qiao suddenly asked Mrs. Liu to find a farmer’s girl for Gu Chengye.

Unfortunately, she didn’t understand that a small family couldn’t live without a reliable and capable man to take care of it too.

“Thank you for the praise, grandma. We husband and wife are one, so it’s necessary to support each other.” Zhou Ying replied with a smile.

“Yes, yes. Husband and wife are supposed to be one. Since you’ve both thought it through, you should be able to live your life well in the future.” Madam Qiao nodded in agreement.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, the couple left.

After seeing them out, Father Gu said, “Both of you are newly married this year, and it’s Zhou Ying’s first year in the family. So, you two can come here on the 30th to spend the new year together.”

Gu Chengrui and Zhou Ying looked at each other and replied, “Alright, we’ll be here on time.”

No matter what their purpose was, they couldn’t refuse him. After all, it was a custom here to spend the night together on the 30th.

In addition, the whole village would have a big New Year’s greeting on the morning of the first day of the new year. If they didn’t go, Mrs. Liu and the others would spread the news, and the good image they had crafted would drop.

Of course, if they dared to find trouble, then don’t blame them for falling out.

After the two returned home, they snuffed the fire and entered the interspace. Zhou Ying used a frying machine to stir-fry two pots of hotpot seasoning, cut them into small pieces, and mix a large jar of dipping sauce.

Finally, she prepared 50 kilograms of vermicelli and 50 kilograms of spicy beef jerky. This should be enough for Brother Zhou.

After they were done, Zhou Ying remembered the dagger. When Gu Chengrui returned, she handed him a dagger and said, “This is from Brother Zhou, and we can keep one for each of us for self-defense.”

Gu Chengrui opened it and took a look. “This is really good stuff, and it’s as good as a specially-made scalpel.

“But you should take it; I’m better off using my scalpel.”

“That’s fine too, so let’s just leave it here. I also think that using a boning knife is easier for my daily tasks. Also, you’re making us sound like executioners,” Zhou Ying said with a smile.

“Haha, but when it’s time to act, don’t hesitate. Otherwise, we’ll be the ones to lose our lives.” Gu Chengrui continued, “It seems that when we butcher pigs, cows, and sheep in the future, we should slaughter them alive. This way, we can practice.

“Remember, no matter if it’s a human or an animal, no matter where you attack from, you have to tilt it at about 45 degrees and stab it in the heart. Only then can you kill it in one stroke.”

Zhou Ying nodded. “I hope I don’t need to use this advice in my life.”

Gu Chengrui didn’t force her. After all, she had her interspace and many ways to defend herself.

The next day, under Manager Liu’s astonished gaze, Zhou Ying put down the goods and returned to her restaurant.

After Qian Zhuang and the others returned in the evening, Zhou Ying said, “Tomorrow, you don’t have to go collect vegetables for the next two days. Go to other towns or counties and sell the cow and sheep heads in our ice cellar.”

She thought of this after leaving the patriarch’s house yesterday. The cow and sheep heads at the end of the year were much more expensive than usual, especially the sheep, and it would bring them a great profit if sold individually.
