Chapter 39: Keep You From Starving to Death

Editor: Atlas Studios

Aunt Kang was stunned after her husband slapped her.

She did not dare to say anything as her husband was furious.

An Jiuyue did not even spare Aunt Kang a glance as she spoke to the Chief, "Chief, you all should have some porridge first. The porridge is still warm. It will turn cold soon."

She ignored the others and began starting a bonfire for them. She watched on as many fought and scrambled to have the porridge. When they were done, she gathered the earthen jar and bamboo tubes back and was ready to leave.

Someone noticed that she was about to leave and hurriedly called out to her, "Jiuyue, your porridge is too diluted. Make it thicker tomorrow."

An Jiuyue stopped in her tracks and looked back at him.

"I'll cook a full meal for you if you want to have a meal and not be guaranteed a next. What do you think about that?" she retorted.

"Uh."

The man was dumbfounded by her words, and his face flushed.

"Jiuyue, what are you talking about? We didn't say anything about cooking a full meal. It's just that this porridge is really not enough to fill our stomachs."

"That's right, that's right! There is so little porridge, but so many of us are sharing it. How can we be full?" A few men defended the person who spoke earlier.

"Jiuyue, you saved us. There's no reason for you to starve us, right?"

An Jiuyue's expression turned cold. She stared coldly at those shameless people and sneered.

"I never intended for you all to eat your fill. I'm only trying to keep you from starving to death."

I've really treated these people too well, haven't I? How dare they take advantage of me? Did they really think I'm easy to bully?

"How about this? I'll stop sending plain porridge from tomorrow onwards, and you can go dig up wild vegetables and tree bark to eat. You can find food without me anyway. There may not be much on the mountain, but there will definitely be plenty of tree bark. You will definitely be able to eat your fill!"

"You—"

When those men heard her words, they almost flew into a rage.

A few other men came forward to stop them.

"Alright, alright. It's good enough that we get to eat something. What else do you want? Without Jiuyue, all of us would've still been starving on the roof. We might have even been swept away by the water!"

"Jiuyue's family has no fields or land, so they don't have much food in the first place. It's already a great favor that she's giving us some plain porridge!"

Although there were some bad people in the village, there were also some kind ones. An Jiuyue saw that some people were defending her and did not say anything else. Instead, she looked at the Chief.

"Chief, you should send people out to pick up more firewood. Although the firewood may be wet, if you let it sit in the cave for a few hours, it can still be used to start a fire. It's not safe in the mountains at night. It's better to have a few bonfires."

"Alright, I understand," the Chief replied.

"Jiuyue, you should be careful when you go back. You don't have to come tomorrow morning, just come at noon. There are so many people. There's definitely not enough food. One meal a day is enough for all."

He had deliberately said this out loud so that the people who despised the plain porridge An Jiuyue brought could hear it.

He really wanted to slap every single one of them. How can these cowards be so cocky? We already have food, but that didn't stop them from complaining and nitpicking!

"One meal a day? That won't do!"

Someone heard the Chief's words and immediately shouted.


Chapter 40: Hit The Jackpot

They would starve to death if they only ate one meal a day.

However, An Jiuyue did not care about them anymore and left the cave immediately. She did not return to the treehouse first. After washing the bamboo tubes and the earthen jar in the spring, she went into the deep mountains to take a look.

The animals on the mountain would not come out at night.

However, things were different today. The foot of the mountain was flooded, and many wild beasts were running around in search of a safe place to hide. After entering the deep mountains, she soon encountered some pheasants and wild rabbits.

They were drenched in the rain and could not escape from her quickly, so she caught them easily.

She chose a few that were of better condition and placed them in her space to raise them. As for the others, she would bring them back home to cook.

An Jiuyue stopped when she passed by a tree hole.

"What is this?"

There was a gray rock covering the tree hole, leaving only the top half of the tree hole visible.

These tree holes were homes dug out by wild rabbits. There were many tree holes scattered everywhere.

They were usually difficult to notice because they were covered by leaves and weeds. However, it had been raining and there was a rock over it, so it was easy to catch sight of.

"You're lucky to have met me."

She had noticed it because she heard the sound of a rabbit grinding its teeth in discomfort. Otherwise, she would not have noticed a motionless rock in this dark night.

She reached out to remove the rock to free the wild rabbit inside.

She wanted to take the rabbit nest out of the tree hole and raise the rabbits in her space. The more rabbits, the merrier.

To her surprise, the rock moved!

"Huh?!"

An Jiuyue was almost scared to death.

However, she still picked up the 'rock' and took a look. It was a long-haired rabbit. The rabbit had been drenched in the rain, and its fur was very long, thus resembling a gray rock.

An Jiuyue did not think much of it. She immediately placed the wild rabbit in her space, then reached into the tree hole. Digging around, she took out a large long-haired rabbit.

However, it was smaller than the previous one. She guessed that this one was female while the previous one was male.

She found 11 more little bunnies and placed everything in her space.

"Master, these are long-haired rabbits! We've hit the jackpot!" Wei Na was excited when it saw the nest of long-haired rabbits.

There were so many long-haired rabbits. They could earn quite a lot of points every month. Besides, rabbits gave birth very quickly and have many litters!

"We got quite lucky."

An Jiuyue raised her eyebrows and muttered to herself.

A long-haired rabbit's fur was the best. It would be great if she could spin the rabbit fur and make clothes out of it. She could make two sets of clothes, gloves, and hats for her two little ones. Then, she would not have to be too worried when winter comes.

She was determined to take good care of these long-haired rabbits.

After the floodwaters receded, she wanted to grow some cotton in the mountains to spin into cloth. There were not many pests around, so the environment was good for growing cotton. There would not be many insects pests feeding off the cotton.
