Capítulo 25: Chapter 25 Alcohol

They all knew exactly how precious that meat was; so many people had traded away their children just for a bite to eat, yet Uncle Qiu was willing to share his meat with them!

Bai Sasa and Bai Lingyu both shook their heads earnestly, indicating that it really wasn't necessary.

"I know food is scarce and hard to come by, but I'm not one to squander it carelessly," he said.

Seeing the children's faces expressing worry about waste and heartache, Old Uncle Qiu went into a bit more detail: "To tell you the truth, our entire cart is full of meat, and as the weather keeps getting hotter, if we don't eat it quickly, I'm afraid we won't be able to keep any of it.

Plus, even though there are no people on our way, there's no shortage of wild beasts. It'll be troublesome if they come looking for the scent of blood.

In short, just listen to Uncle Qiu, and let's eat together. Country folks aren't so particular."
