Chapter 166: Chapter 166: Sneaking into the Boudoir at Night (2)_1

Upon reaching the medical center, Mu Zhongli alighted from the carriage, acting concerned as he assisted Mu Liankui to walk into the center. Mu Liankui looked so sickly as though he was on the verge of death. Mu Chongcai and Mu Chongfu followed behind them looking equally sorrowful and mournful.

Watching the melodramatic performance of the family, Cai Wei felt irritated yet amused. She stopped in her tracks and said to her dad, "Look, the main house’s family knows they can’t take us on, so they change tactics to play the sympathy card."

Upon seeing the overly exaggerated performances, Mu Zhongqing shook his head disappointed and sighed, then walked inside with his hands behind his back.

Cai Wei didn’t feel like going in to watch their exaggerated performance or to discuss the nuances of familial relationships with them. She looked around and saw a line forming in front of a sauce meat shop in the distance and decided to go over and join the crowd.

As she approached the sauce meat shop, the unique aroma of marinated meat hit her nostrils and piqued her appetite. She joined the queue of customers eagerly awaiting their orders.

When it was her turn, she noticed that the shop only sold smoked and marinated meats, no vegetables. Looking at the shiny smoked chicken, the snowy marinated pork knuckle, the purple-red marinated wild rabbit, the marinated tendons, and the marinated pork trotters, her mouth began to water. She couldn’t wait to place her order.

She bought a piece of marinated pork knuckle, a smoked chicken, and two smoked fish. After having the shopkeeper prepare and plate them, she placed them in her basket happily and went back to her own horse carriage. While waiting for her dad, she enjoyed her meal.

The taste of the pork knuckle was exceptional, the flavor unique. The moment she took a bite, the strong meaty flavor spread in her mouth, leaving a lingering aftertaste.

After eating for a while, she felt a bit thirsty. Taking advantage of no one being around, she went into the space to drink some water from the Lingxi River.

Upon seeing her, Brother Ying flew over, grabbing onto her clothes with his claws and calling aloud, "Master, I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat..."

Cai Wei casually flicked his little claws away from her chest, and she brought all the food from outside into the space. The fragrant marinated pork knuckle, smoked chicken, and smoked fish were instantly fought over by Brother Ying and Bai Mei.

Cai Wei was already used to their madness and simply let them be while she went to stroll around the vegetable field.

Upon reaching the vegetable field, she noticed that all the cumin had ripened. She had already collected Young Master Huo’s fifteen hundred taels’ deposit, and tomorrow was the day she had to deliver the goods. It seemed that Chang Mei would need to work overtime tonight. The other green veggies had also matured and were now lush and abundant. They needed to be harvested and reseeded as soon as possible, otherwise it would be such a waste of the precious land!

But next time, she decided to plant grain.

Compared to green veggies, grain is more practical and longer lasting. While the green veggies could remain fresh and unspoiled in the space, they would only last a few days longer than normal veggies when brought outside before wilting, spoiling, and rotting. It would be better to plant grain, which could be stored outside for months or even years and sold at any time without worrying about being questioned about its source.

While she was wandering around, her dad emerged from the medical center. Seeing him, Cai Wei hastily exited the space and nonchalantly returned to her seat in the horse carriage. As soon as Mu Zhongqing got into the carriage, Cai Wei asked, "Dad, how is the Old Master?"

Mu Zhongqing looked solemn with a depressed aura around him. He responded, "No matter, he was just overcome by rage at the moment, a classic case of anger leading to heart problems."
