Chapter 31: The Benefits of Eating Alone

  Is he really capable of dealing with those beasts?

  Thinking of this, Li Xiang felt relieved. If even she had a golden finger, then it was no wonder that he, as a reborn person, would have cheating devices.

  However, when it comes down to it, they avoided the crowds. If there really is relief food available, I'm afraid it won't be their turn anyway?

  Thinking of this, Li Hua asked.

  Muruo shook his head: "Auntie, I don't think it's a good idea to go with them, it's too chaotic, and who knows if we'll even get enough to eat?"

  "There are plenty of wild vegetables on this mountain, plus what we have in our hands, it's enough to hold out for a while. Once the floodwaters recede, we can head down the mountain."

  "But the beast's activity range is not fixed. For our own safety, it's best to stay indoors as much as possible and let me handle everything!"

  She was just a little kid, but she didn't think of herself as one at all. She could understand that, but Li Hua might not.

  As expected, Li Hua refused at that time, and the reason was very simple. She is an adult, how can she be supported by a child?

  When Mu Yan saw that he lightly pinched a stone the size of a palm into powder, she stared with her mouth agape: "You......"

  "Auntie, I have plenty of strength, this wooden house is a good proof, these woods were carried here by me alone,"

  "So you have to believe me, I am capable of taking care of myself, but with you added, it's not necessarily the case,"

  "It's okay, your safest bet is to stay here with Nannan, I'll take care of things outside."

  "I'll help you arrange everything that needs to be arranged, and I absolutely won't let you guys get taken advantage of!"

  The mother and daughter looked at Mu Yan for half a day without saying a word, both thinking in their minds -

  How many more secrets does this child have?

  That night, Li Hua couldn't sleep, but the little Li Xiang's shoes were very carefree and slept well.

  For the next few days, Mu Yan went out to pick wild vegetables before dawn and returned home for meals at noon.

  The rest of the time was not in front of the mother and daughter.

  Li Hua was worried about her family at home, but Xiao Li stopped her from going with excuses of being afraid.

  Don't even joke about it, with just this little food, if they really let that honest woman bring those top-grade goods, wouldn't they rather die?

  In this era of scarce resources, only selfishness can survive.

  She is not a saint, she still needs others' help to survive, how can she have extra food to support those who don't treat you as family?

  ——

  The heavy rain continued for five more days before it gradually showed signs of stopping.

  For these five days, Mu Yan dug wild vegetables every day, Li Hua cooked porridge and rice every day, and if they were lucky, they would also have fresh mushrooms and wild rabbits and pheasants.

  This shows the benefits of eating alone.

  At this time, if they lived and ate with the villagers, this bit of meat would never enter their mouths.

  At this moment, Li Xiang admired Mu Yan even more for his foresight.

  If it weren't for him, she and her mother would probably choose to follow the crowd.

  Women, where have such a big nerve, will only seek shelter at the first time.

  So the three people's trip to Qingcheng Mountain was more enjoyable than their time in Lijia Village.

  This discovery was very frustrating for Li Hua as a mother.

  At the same time as being more and more grateful to Muren, the Virgin Mary's heart is overflowing, thinking of the Li family.

  From the news brought back by Mu Yan, she knew that although the Li family had all escaped, they were living in temporary sheds every day, and the conditions were very harsh.

  It's not just that they can't eat their fill, the grandchildren of the Dai family have also fallen ill. In these deep mountains and old forests, it's not just a matter of seeing a doctor, every single person is struggling to get by.

  This made her even more uneasy in her heart, and she couldn't help but take the wild vegetables that Mu Yan had dug up and planned to go find him...
