Yu Chengfeng took several kilograms of rice and meat to his neighbor Goudan's house and handed the things to Goudan's widow.
Widow Wang's husband was killed by a tiger when he went hunting in the mountains a few years ago, leaving an orphan and widow living a difficult life. Even so, she often helped take care of An Ning.
For Chengfeng, these kindnesses must be repaid. Similarly, those who bullied An Ning and him in the past will also suffer his revenge, but that will have to wait until he has a better life before considering it.
Widow Wang took the things, she was in disbelief and also had tears in her eyes. She pulled Yu Chengfeng and wanted to chat about home affairs, but Yu Chengfeng was too greedy for meat and excused her as soon as possible.
After leaving Widow Wang's house, Yu Chengfeng went directly to the cloth store, pulled out a foot of good cloth, and bought some cotton, planning to go back and make a thick cotton coat for An Ning.
Passing by a jewelry store in the middle, Yu Chengfeng thought about it and went in to buy a bracelet for An Ning. After this trip, he almost spent all the money he got from hunting.
But Yu Chengfeng doesn't care. With his mind, he has many ways to make money.
After Yu Chengfeng walked out of the jewelry store, the news of spending money lavishly spread throughout almost the entire fort.
After all, he was a well-known rogue, and he usually had to get everything from here and there to drink, but today he seemed to have made a fortune, buying so many things.
"Have you heard? Then Yu Chengfeng bought twenty kilograms of fine rice and meat at once!"
"Yes, yes, I heard that he also gave a lot to his neighbor, Widow Wang!"
"I heard from the owner of the leather goods store that he never knew how many pieces of good leather he had gotten, and there were no scars at all!"
"It must have been either stolen or robbed!"
"Just wait, let him get lucky just this time, he won't have such good luck in the future!"
The people in the fort were talking a lot, but one thing is certain, that is, the roots of their teeth are a little sore, and the most unhappy person among them is probably Hou Quan.
Hou Quan is usually a rogue, otherwise he wouldn't hang out with the original owner, but he has a brother-in-law from a hundred families, and he usually bullies Yu Chengfeng.
When he originally thought that Yu Chengfeng would be like this in his life, he suddenly heard that Yu Chengfeng had made a fortune, which was even more uncomfortable than killing him.
He hurried to the leather goods store to inquire with the boss, and happened to meet a hunter who came to the leather goods store to sell leather. The hunter also brought out a fox with no scars on its body, which surprised the boss.
After repeated questioning, the hunter revealed that he had picked it up when he went up the mountain in the morning. It looked like it was a trap set by someone else.
Hou Quan rolled his eyes, immediately approached the hunter, and scolded: "How dare you take the prey that has been trapped by others!"
It is not a good thing to take the prey from the trap set by others. The hunter felt guilty. When he turned around and saw that the person scolding him was Hou Quan, he lost his temper even more. After leaving the fox on the counter, he immediately gone.
Hou Quan beamed with joy, picked up the fox and ran to his brother-in-law's house.
His brother-in-law's name is Li Zhen. He married Hou Quan's sister a few years ago. He is currently at home drinking wine and eating bran rice and braised water.
Even though he was a member of a hundred households, his salary alone was not very high, only fifteen taels of silver a year. The court had not allocated much money here in recent years, so there was nothing he could do to pay for wine.
"Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law!" Hou Quan opened the door and walked in directly with the fox in his hand. A gust of cold wind also came in with him, which made Li Zhen frown.
"What's the matter? I'm in a hurry." Li Zhen gave his wife a look, asked her to close the door, and waved for Hou Quan to sit down.
"Brother-in-law, look!" Hou Quan handed the fox in his hand to Li Zhen. Li Zhen didn't know why, but he still took it and looked at it.
After looking at it for a while, he exclaimed in admiration: "What a handsome piece of leather, it's not broken at all!"
"Did you hunt this?" Li Zhen asked Hou Quan.
"This...this was not hunted by me, but by Yu Chengfeng." Hou Quan said through gritted teeth.
"Who? Yu Chengfeng?!" Li Zhen wondered if his ears had heard it wrong. Yu Chengfeng was the second most useless and useless person in the castle. No one dared to say that he was the first. How could such a useless person be able to Hunt such good skin?
When Hou Quan came, he guessed that his brother-in-law would not believe it, so he told Li Zhen all about the conflict he had with Yu Chengfeng yesterday, as well as Yu Chengfeng's big purchase today and the news he heard in the leather goods store.
After hearing this, Li Zhen also felt jealous in his heart. He, a member of a hundred households, was still eating bran rice, but he, a soldier household, was actually eating fine rice and good meat! ?
"You mean, how did Yu Chengfeng get this kind of skin?" Li Zhen shook the fox in his hand, with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Yes, brother-in-law, I wonder if I should ask him for..." Before Hou Quan could finish speaking, he was slapped on the head by Li Zhen.
"If I want it, if I want your mother, will he give it to you?" Li Zhen fiercely took two mouthfuls of bran rice into his mouth and said, "Call a few brothers, grab the guy and let me go!"
Hou Quan was always wary of his brother-in-law, and he did not dare to say anything even when he was beaten, so he had to go out and call for help.
Yu Chengfeng had also returned home with his things. The meat porridge had been cooked in the kitchen. An Ning took it out and put it on the table. He was sitting at the table, waiting for Yu Chengfeng with some uneasiness.
Yu Chengfeng pushed the door open and came in. He saw An Ning waiting for him at the dining table in the misty kitchen. He was moved for a moment. This was the feeling of warm home he had been pursuing in his previous life, but the people in that world were too realistic. Impetuous, there is only money and interests between men and women, and there is no long-term staying together.
He hurried to the kitchen, put the cloth and cotton in his hand into An Ning's arms, and said, "It's cold, and your clothes are too thin. I bought you cotton and cloth. You can use it to make warm and beautiful clothes." , don’t get cold again.”
"Also, I passed by a jewelry store and saw that this bracelet was good, so I bought it for you. Come on! I'll put it on for you." Yu Chengfeng said, and directly took An Ning's hand and wanted to put it on her. , but choked up after seeing her arms.
An Ning's hands and arms were extremely thin, even like dead branches on a tree in winter, which would break under the weight of snow.
Not to mention that An Ning's wrist had been broken by the original owner. Even after it recovered later, it was still a little misaligned and looked a little weird.
Yu Chengfeng resisted the urge to cry and put the bracelet on An Ning.
The bracelet was made of bamboo bone, with a small piece of jade inlaid on it. It looked really beautiful when worn on An Ning's pale wrist, but An Ning was too thin, so the bracelet looked empty on it.
