"Wife!"
Seeing his wife’s excitent, the already exhausted Yuan Zhaodi suddenly gained so energy and took several steps to reach Mrs. Xiao Li.
"I’m back!"
"I made you worry!"
Well!
The Yuan Family mbers were all fed a mouthful of dog food.
The crowd who had been worried about Yuan Zhaodi just monts ago, imdiately dispersed to have breakfast.
Because Yuan Zhaodi was missing yesterday, the Yuan Family just threw together so breakfast, as most people really couldn’t eat much.
But with Yuan Zhaodi’s return, everyone’s mood brightened, and their appetite increased, so the casually prepared breakfast was quickly insufficient.
"Mom, there’s not enough to eat!"
Yuan Pandi and his brothers didn’t eat much yesterday, and now that they could eat freely, they imdiately felt their stomachs weren’t full.
Hearing this, Mrs. Zeng snorted and said, "Not enough to eat, then you stay hungry!"
"...?!"
Yuan Pandi was dumbfounded.
"Mom, co on, the fourth is ho safely!"
"We’ll make sothing nice for lunch, for now, bear with it!"
"Mom, what are we making that’s good?"
Hearing their mother’s words, Yuan Pandi and his brothers’ eyes opened wide.
"Stewed chicken!"
"If you go catch so fish in the river, we’ll cook them too. If not, just the chicken!"
Good food?
Naturally, you eat what’s available at ho.
A clever woman can’t cook without rice.
Even if she wants to make a feast, the house must have the ingredients.
"Second, third, and fourth, let’s head to the river!"
Listening to Mrs. Zeng, Yuan Pandi imdiately called for his three brothers to move out.
"The fourth didn’t sleep a wink last night, let him rest at ho, you three brothers go!"
Old Yuan tapped the table and offered his opinion.
And so, Yuan Zhaodi was left at ho.
Regarding yesterday’s water thief encounter at Dragon Head Town’s pier, Yuan Zhaodi didn’t elaborate, but Old Yuan could sense there was more to it.
Leaving Yuan Zhaodi at ho was because Old Yuan wanted to get the full story from his son.
Once Yuan Pandi and his brothers left, and all the won in the house scattered, Old Yuan finally looked at Yuan Zhaodi and asked the question on his mind.
"Tell , what exactly happened with the water thieves yesterday?"
Old Yuan had encountered water thieves and mountain bandits in the past, but whether water thieves or bandits, they mostly aid for wealth not lives. Yet yesterday’s events overturned Old Yuan’s years of experience and understanding.
"Dad, yesterday’s water thieves weren’t water thieves!"
Yuan Zhaodi lowered his voice, "When they ca, I was on the pier. I jumped into the water to escape. The water thieves landed, not for money, but purely to kill!"
"Later, I swam across the river and followed their boat downstream, watching it enter the governnt’s navy water village!"
"What?!"
Hearing Yuan Zhaodi’s words, Old Yuan was stunned, speechless for a long ti.
"Dad, this matter, you can’t tell anyone else."
"If it gets out, our family won’t have a way to survive!"
The governnt navy’s soldiers disguised as water thieves, attacked Dragon Head Town’s pier, killed hundreds, and burned down an entire town. There’s no way there isn’t more to this story.
"I know!"
No need for a particular reminder from Yuan Zhaodi, Old Yuan knew well the stakes involved.
"From today onwards, you can’t drink anymore!"
" neither!"
Old Yuan looked at Yuan Zhaodi and declared firmly.
