Against the Tide of Disaster: A Marquisate’s Survival Chapter 31

Chapter 31 Full of Food, Ready to Move the Gold Mine

She didn’t say the last sentence, but Fu Yanting understood her meaning, “Yes, let’s go in first.”

Chu Chenyin laughed, “If he fails, Wan Chengxiang wants to rely on this gold mine to turn his life around, it’s a daydream!”

Fu Yanting raised a slightly evil smile and followed, “That’s right.”

The two of them exchanged words, although they didn’t say it explicitly, they had already communicated and made up their minds.

Fu Jianghong looked at Chu Chenyin, then at Fu Yanting, and said in a daze, “Big brother, sister-in-law, what are you talking about? What do you mean by going in first?”

Fu Yanting walked to her side, patted her shoulder, “Third sister, you don’t need to worry about too much, just follow us.”

Although Fu Jianghong usually bickered with her elder brothers, she trusted them very much at critical moments. Hearing Fu Yanting say this, she didn’t ask any more questions, “Okay.”

She nodded in agreement, but her gaze fell on Chu Chenyin again, “Big brother, you can do whatever you want, just don’t involve sister-in-law. Sister-in-law is a lady from a noble family, gentle and delicate, unlike you, a wolf who eats people in the desert, bad to the bone!”

While saying that her elder brother was bad, she turned around and threw a washed plum to Fu Yanting.

Fu Yanting took the plum and looked up at Chu Chenyin, his eyes clearly revealing a meaningful smile.

Chu Chenyin understood.

That gentle and delicate description was not really suitable for her.

If we were talking about being bad, she and Fu Yanting were two of a kind.

She admitted this and didn’t want to put on a good person’s facade.

Fu Yanting picked up a washed peach and threw it to her.

She caught it and ate it.

Fu Jianghong also took out a lotus leaf chicken and a honey-baked duck.

The entire room was instantly filled with the aroma of roast chicken and duck.

Forget it, the world is big, but eating is the biggest.

Chu Chenyin took a few bites of the peach, then picked up the roast duck leg and ate it.

Ten miles away from their inn, in another inn, the eldest daughter of the Chu family and the eldest son of Wan Chengxiang were in a loving embrace.

Later, the eldest daughter of the Chu family nestled in Wan’s eldest son’s arms and cried, “Those bandits were so cruel, they even stole my dowry.”

The Chu family was robbed clean overnight. The eldest daughter of the Chu family, let alone her dowry, didn’t even have a few decent pieces of jewelry.

She used to always laugh at her younger sister, a lowly girl, who only deserved to wear coarse clothes and linen.

Now, it was almost her turn to wear coarse clothes and linen.

Wan’s eldest son held her in his arms and comforted her, “Don’t worry, once we enter that gold mine tomorrow, we’ll have as much gold as we want.”

He gently stroked her hair, “I’ll build you a golden house, let you live in a golden house, with countless gold and silver jewelry.”

The eldest daughter of the Chu family smiled happily, as if the gold was already in her hands. She rubbed against Wan’s eldest son, “Fenglang, you’re the best to me.”

Wan’s eldest son kissed her forehead and smiled, “You’re my wife, of course I’m good to you. After all, you saved my life.”

The eldest daughter of the Chu family’s face changed when she heard his words, her eyes clearly showing some guilt.

“Three years ago, if you hadn’t saved me from the river, I would have died by now.” Wan’s eldest son said with a gentle expression.

The eldest daughter of the Chu family tried to hide her panic and forced a smile, “That’s fate between us.”

Three years ago, the Chu family went for a trip to the moat outside the capital city. When they were leaving, someone fell into the river nearby.

The Chu family was eager to go home and didn’t care about the life of the person who fell into the water. They simply ignored it.

In the end, it was a young concubine who couldn’t bear to see the person in the water die, so she jumped into the river and saved the person.

After the young concubine rescued the person, the eldest daughter of the Chu family saw that it was Wan Chengxiang’s son, so she slapped the young concubine three or four times and drove her away.

When Wan’s eldest son woke up, he saw the eldest daughter of the Chu family and mistakenly thought she was his savior, so he asked his father for this marriage.

Otherwise, how could a powerful minister like Wan Chengxiang allow his son to marry the daughter of the Chu family.

It’s a pity that Wan’s eldest son’s sincerity was given to the wrong person.

Now, the young concubine is sleeping in the inn. However, after a while, she suddenly opened her eyes and sat up towards the man beside her.

Fu Yanting, who hadn’t been asleep, was awakened by her and slowly raised his eyes to look at her.

Seeing those dull eyes, he was startled.

No good, this girl is having a fit in her dream again!
