330: Gaga nourishes the kidneys

“This is snake wine, with many medicinal herbs added. It can relax muscles and activate collaterals.”

Xiao Chuxia stuffed the jar into Jiang Fei’s arms, her smile turning ambiguous: “The greatest effect of this wine is its amazing kidney-tonifying properties. Miss, tell Brother Lu to drink more of it when he’s free. It’ll be good for you.”

Jiang Fei: “...”

Thank you so much.

Drinking it was out of the question. Jiang Fei put the snake wine in the warehouse and led the three out of the Supermarket.

It was already past four in the afternoon.

“Chu Xia, go call Han Yang and the others to come for dinner.”

Han Yang and the others knew she wanted medicinal herbs and often came to deliver them this month.

Since they finished planting the fields early today and weren’t busy, she decided to gather everyone.

They happened to be free now too.

Ever since Sister Lu started milking the heavens, the entire gang, except for those on patrol and the cooks, no longer had to work; everyone focused on planting.

Once they finished their tasks, they could rest.

Therefore, Han Yang and the others had more free time.

After Su Liuyuan and the two others left, Jiang Fei went to the kitchen on the first floor to get ingredients and cook.

With many people eating, Jiang Fei used a large pot to make a Northeastern Stew.

It was a hodgepodge made by stewing potatoes, green beans, pumpkins, corn, pork ribs, and other ingredients. The method was simple, but it was very rich.

Jiang Fei also made cabbage, tofu, and pork belly, fried locusts, and two large basins of cold mixed dishes.

The locusts were hoarded during the locust plague previously, originally intended to feed the chickens and geese, but the boss and its companions got tired of them after a few days, leaving a large pile.

The cold mixed dishes were divided into spicy and non-spicy flavors.

Xiao Hua Lao didn’t like spicy food much, so the non-spicy dishes she made were basically prepared for it.

The staple food was steamed mixed bean rice.

It had black beans, red beans, yellow beans, white rice, and black rice, making it healthy and nutritious.

At half past five, Jiang Fei finished cooking.

Su Liuyuan and the two others returned with Mo Yanan, Father Mo, Han Yang, You Chengyu, You Yuxi, Mother You, Mu Qingzhou, Wu Xiaowei, and Wu Dayong.

Everyone was not surprised to see the sumptuous meal on the table.

The Black Night Gang had planted a lot of grain recently, so their food had also improved.

However, when they saw the basins full of pork ribs and pork belly, they still couldn’t help but swallow their saliva.

The canteen's food didn’t have this much meat.

Most of what they ate was frozen zombie meat, rat meat, snake meat, insects, and moldy cured meat, which couldn’t compare to what Jiang Fei made.

“It smells so good.”

Mother You squeezed through the crowd to the table and took a deep breath.

She was wearing five or six pearl and diamond necklaces around her neck, and her ten fingers were covered with diamond and gemstone rings, almost dazzling Jiang Fei.

“Aunt You, this is...”

You Chengyu awkwardly explained: “My mom said it’s all sparkly like an elf fairy.”

Hard to comment.

Jiang Fei was silent for a moment and changed the subject: “Aunt You’s condition is much better than before, and she’s willing to speak. Has her illness improved?”

You Chengyu shook his head: “Although my mom started talking occasionally after her emotions stabilized, she hasn’t fully regained consciousness and still doesn’t recognize me or my sister.”

“And sometimes the things she says are quite frustrating.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fei looked at Mother You.

Just then, Mother You looked up at Jiang Fei.

She pointed at the food, then at her mouth.

“Can I eat?”

“Yes.” Jiang Fei gave Mother You a pair of chopsticks and a lollipop separately.

Mother You, who received the candy, immediately smiled and said politely: “Thank you for the gift.”

“You’re welcome.”

Isn’t Aunt You speaking quite normally?

As Jiang Fei was thinking, Mo Yanan handed her two large bags.

“Sister Jiang Fei, these are a small token of our appreciation. There’s cabbage, potatoes, and sweet potatoes. Please don’t mind them.”

They couldn’t eat Jiang Fei’s food for free.

Knowing that this was a return gift from Mo Yanan and the others, Jiang Fei accepted the bags.

Everyone sat down to eat.

It was rare to eat food with seasonings, and everyone devoured it.

You Yuxi put a piece of pumpkin on the plates of Mother You, You Chengyu, and Mo Yanan respectively:

“This is delicious, try it.”

Mo Yanan picked up the pumpkin and ate it: “It’s indeed delicious, stewed until soft and flavorful.”

His relaxed tone showed no trace of his previous coldness and aloofness towards You Yuxi.

Xiao Chuxia curiously whispered to You Yuxi beside her: “Are you and Mo Yanan together now?”

You Yuxi replied softly: “No, we’re just ordinary friends.”

“I don’t have the heart to think about those things anymore. I just want to live peacefully with my brother and mom and get through the apocalypse.”

Love was not as important as her and her family’s survival.

“Aunt You will get better one day.” Xiao Chuxia gently patted You Yuxi’s shoulder, comforting her.

Suddenly, Wu Xiaowei spoke: “Miss Jiang, I have something to tell you.”

“We’ve searched all over the Black Night Gang recently, but we haven’t found any trace of Jiang Zhengkang and his companions.”

“I told Sister Lu about this today, and she said she’d send people to investigate outside.”

Wu Xiaowei pursed her lips: “Actually, Sister Lu had already checked the list you gave her a long time ago. Jiang Zhengkang and his companions are not among the survivors in the capital of the Black Night Gang.”

“Sister Lu was afraid you’d be disappointed, so she never said anything.”

“I overheard these words today when I went to see Sister Lu.”

Wu Dayong: “Miss Jiang, don’t worry. Jiang Zhengkang and his companions might be in other parts of Mos City.”

“Sister Lu has sent people to look for them. If there’s any news, she’ll definitely tell you immediately.”

Jiang Fei, however, held little hope.

She had orchestrated the elimination of the Paradise Gang and the Axe Gang, and her reputation had already spread throughout Mos City.

But for over a month, no acquaintances had come to the Black Night Gang to find her.

Were her uncle and the others not in Mos City, or was it...

“Brother Lu, you’re back. Come sit down and eat.”

Ling Zhaorui’s shout interrupted Jiang Fei’s thoughts.

Lu Yu walked into the living room.

Seeing Mu Qingzhou there, Lu Yu’s eyes flickered slightly. He walked behind Jiang Fei and stood there, raising his hand to rest it on her shoulder.

It looked very much like he was embracing her.

“The scavenger team’s matters have all been resolved. From now on, they’ll be under my management and will regularly send us gold.”

“I brought back a truckload tonight; it’s outside. Do you want to find a place to hide it?”

“Let’s go!” Jiang Fei immediately put down her chopsticks and went out with Lu Yu.

Han Yang couldn’t help but gossip: “When did Brother Lu and the boss become so intimate?”

“Brother Lu almost had the boss in his arms just now.”

“They’re in love.” Su Liuyuan told everyone about their relationship.

Han Yang couldn’t contain his excitement: “I didn’t expect my first ship to become real!”

Mo Yanan and the others were also happy for Jiang Fei and Lu Yu.

Both were their friends.

They would naturally be happy if their friends were doing well.

Only Mu Qingzhou felt a little sorry for Jiang Fei.

It wasn’t that he still harbored any illusions about Jiang Fei, but rather pure sympathy.

Lu Yu had looks and strength, but his personality and temper were very eccentric.

Miss Jiang was unlucky to be with him.

At this moment, outside the brick house.

Jiang Fei collected the gold bars from the armored vehicle into the Supermarket.

System: [Ding — detected gold: 1,016,580 grams]

Lu Yu: “The gold that the scavengers bring in a few days will be more than double what it is today.”

“And there’s more good news.”
