Chapter 499: Chapter 500: Fight to the Death with Her

The Zhang Family would certainly not hesitate to eat several hundred jin of pork themselves!

Upon seeing their unyielding stance, the Zhang Family, albeit tearfully, finally nodded their heads in agreement: "Fine! Four mao it is!"

At least, it would help recoup some of their losses, and they wouldn’t starve at the beginning of the year!

Well, there’s also the extra twenty yuan; that should last for a while.

But that means the plan to buy a daughter would have to be postponed for several more years.

Not long after Sanni had left the village, her stomach began rumbling furiously.

She hadn’t eaten anything in eight or nine hours.

Helian Qiao immediately sprung into action, enthusiastically saying, "Sister San, I will catch some meat for you!"

"Guibao, there’s no need for that, dad has some dried beef and milk candies here. We can give these to Sanni to alleviate her hunger."

Fearing the sight of her using her magical strength, Chen Jianjun hurriedly took out dried beef and milk candies from his pocket and handed it over.

This was prepared for Guibao before he set off to the mountains. Anticipating the remote location’s harsh conditions led him to foresee that she may get hungry along the way.

He couldn’t bear to see his own daughter go hungry!

However, Helian Qiao remained firm, "I want to catch meat to bring home to eat!"

That big old tiger she recently saw would be just right!

Chen Jianjun gently coaxed her, "Guibao, it’s getting dark. Let’s head home first. Tomorrow, dad will bring you into the mountains to catch some meat to eat. Is that okay?"

Helian Qiao gave it some thought and reluctantly nodded in agreement: "Alright."

She knew how poor human vision could be during nighttime, rendering them blind in the dark.

"What a good girl."

Seeing her agree, Chen Jianjun breathed a sigh of relief and distributed the candies he had to everyone else.

Sugar is a good energy source, leading him to bring extra when leaving his house.

The young men from the commune who volunteered to help had tasted milk candies for the first time and agreed that "the candy tastes so good!"

Eating the milky sweet candy revitalized them and they picked up speed down the mountain.

Descending was much faster than ascending; it took only just over an hour to reach the foot of the mountain.

By now, it was beginning to get dark and there was still an hour’s walk back to the commune.

Chen Jianmin who usually did not labor much, was already showing signs of fatigue.

But Helian Qiao was still wide awake, walking pompously alongside Dabai at the front.

Both Chen Dazhu and Ma Xiulian, who had eaten quite a few small goldfish just like her, showed no signs of fatigue compared to robust laborers.

Looking at his youngest son’s weary face, he silently sent out a sigh of relief. Luckily, he had sent the boy off to learn carpentry. With his physique, he definitely wouldn’t be able to feed their family by farming.

By now, the Chen Family had prepared the meals and were anxiously waiting when they noticed the night settling in and the still-absent group.

Zhao Mei said with a worried look: "They should’ve returned by now, even if they were far away. Did anything happen to them on the way?"

Running into winter mountains is dangerous as it is; getting lost while still inside when it’s already dark is unthinkable!

God forbid that anything happens to him!

Liu Lanzhi didn’t say anything, though her face portrayed her worries as she glanced anxiously towards the door from time to time.

Zhou Zhaodi spoke confidently, "No, nothing will happen! Guibao and Dabai are there. I’m sure nothing will go wrong, and they’ll return safely."

Their little niece is a little fairy who brings great blessing. She will definitely guide all the family members back safely!

After saying this, he glared towards Li Chunhua’s residence, the words taking on a sharper edge: "That damned Li Chunhua! Her brain must’ve been greased with lard. If she hadn’t followed that crazy old woman’s baseless ideas, her foolish act wouldn’t have led us to struggle so hard, our hearts heavy with anxiety. If anything happens to my man, I swear I’ll risk everything. I’ll quarrel with her as much as needed!"
