Chapter 422: Heiress

The grain was quickly dug out.

The brigand leader directly plundered a few complete wooden cabinets and placed them against the wall. He only needed to walk over and open the cabinet door to see them.

It had to be said that he was extremely confident in his own martial strength, which was why he could place the food like this without hiding it.

The sacks of grain included rice, flour, and all kinds of coarse grain. It looked like there was a wide variety.

In the disaster area where no one could find food, this food was much more valuable than gold.

Gu Ying closed the cabinet door again and prepared to find a carriage

He had already carefully observed from the high ground just now. There were a few carriages parked in a half-broken yard behind the village, enough for him to transport the food and property back.

Before that, he still needed to give some of them to the women he had saved. Of course, he wouldn’t let them all take away.

Although these women were also victims of the robbery, who had the food and wealth? It was a bad debt now, and who could calculate it clearly?

Moreover, a group of women carrying grain, gold, and silver in a carriage was already a fat sheep in the eyes of others, and they would probably die even faster.

Gu Ying’s movements were very swift, and he quickly returned with the largest carriage.

The rain continued to fall, but it was a little lighter than before, and the sky darkened.

Unknowingly, night was about to fall.

At this time, the outside was already a muddy tidal flat, and Gu Ying would not take such a big risk to rush back to the village overnight.

He had already asked Big Black to go back and send a message. It would not be a problem even if he stayed outside for the night.

Gu Ying unloaded the horses and parked the carriage at the foot of the wall. He was prepared to rest for the night and set off with the seized supplies the next day.

As soon as he walked into the house with his horse, he saw a few women supporting each other and hiding from the rain under the eaves, waiting for him at the same time.

“Benefactor, you’re back!”

The first person to speak was the woman who had been saved first.

At that time, she claimed that her surname was Xu, that she was already married, and that her husband’s surname was Lin.

Gu Ying raised an eyebrow in response.

These women were not hiding from the rain in other houses, but instead came to him hand in hand. It seemed that they had a favor to ask of him.

“Benefactor, it’s already late. I thought it was time to make dinner. I didn’t want to starve you, so I brought my sisters here to see if there was anything I could help with.”

Lin Xu had clearly recovered and was now speaking in an orderly manner. She clearly had other thoughts, but she did not say it out loud. Instead, she found a seemingly appropriate excuse.

Gu Ying could tell what she was trying to do, and he instinctively felt disgusted.

As victims, they had already suffered a lot of abuse and torture. Now that they were rescued, it was normal for them to want to fill their stomachs or find someone to rely on to escape from the devil’s den.

However, using others as an excuse to try to satisfy one’s own needs in a roundabout way was very disgusting.

“I’m not hungry.”

Gu Ying waved his hand and led the horse to the stable on the other side of the yard.

With his current physical fitness, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to go hungry for three days and three nights, let alone not eating a single meal.

“How can we do that!”

Lin Xu immediately grew anxious.

“You have to eat, especially now that the weather is cold and humid. If you don’t eat, how can your body take it?”

“That’s right, benefactor. It’s not like we don’t do anything. We can still cook simple meals as long as you don’t mind.”

Another woman who was clear-headed agreed.

As for the two young women who had already lost their minds, they just smiled foolishly, bit their fingers, and hid behind the three women who were sober. They even shouted, “Food, I’m hungry.”

Although Gu Ying didn’t like Lin Xu’s schemes, he didn’t want these women to go hungry.

He tied the horse in silence and returned to the main house. When he came out, he had a bag in his hand.

“Just cook what you want to eat. Don’t worry about me.”

There were also a few small bags in the bag, which were filled with rice, flour, and coarse grain. It was enough to cook three days’ worth of food for five people, let alone a meal.

When Lin Xu took the bag, she couldn’t help but glance into the main house, then quickly looked away.

Her small movements did not escape Gu Ying’s eyes, but he did not make any indication. He only went to the woodshed and took out a bunch of grass, preparing to cover the carriage.

In the yard, other than the brigands stacked on top of each other, there were also brigands tied to trees. The brigands at the bottom were already dead. They were squeezed into the mud, and several heavy bodies were stacked on top of them, which had long suffocated them.

Gu Ying didn’t care about the life and death of those beasts, he only cared about his own matters.

The rescued women had already gone to cook.

They didn’t choose the nearest kitchen. Instead, they stayed far away from these few kitchens and went to find a house that was badly damaged. They set up a fire to cook in the half-open kitchen.

Gu Ying thought for a moment and understood their intentions.

The kitchen in the courtyard reeked of blood. They knew very well what had happened in the kitchen, so how could they have used a stove pot that was stained with some kind of oil to cook?

However, these women were pampered daughters of rich families. Even if they had experience in cooking, they had never set the stove on fire.

Just the task of starting a fire had made her busy for a long time. She was covered in dust and dirt, but she still couldn’t start a fire.

“Sister-in-law Lin, why don’t we beg our benefactor again? He’s a man, and his hands and feet are so nimble, he’ll definitely be able to start a fire very quickly.”

Another woman came over and suggested.

She was the one who had told Gu Ying before that she wanted him to take them with him, but she was not married yet. She had only promised someone and had not married him yet.

“Sister Tian, our benefactor is a man after all. It’s not convenient for him.

We’ve already troubled him too much, so it’s better not to look for him again.”

Lin Xu had other plans in mind. She didn’t want to lose the big picture for a small gain.

“Sister-in-law Lin, our benefactor has already saved us once. As the saying goes, “Help Buddha to the end”, so we should do a good deed to the end. Is he going to just watch us starve and freeze?

“At most, we’ll reward him more after we get back our property.”

Madam Tian had just been saved, and she couldn’t wait to reveal her original personality of a rich young lady. Her face was as if it was a matter of course, and there was no trace of the embarrassment of suffering.

Lin Xu gave her a deep look but did not say anything. She only used the excuse of getting some firewood to add to the fire and quietly put some distance between them.

The firewood that had been piled up in the woodshed was already damp. It could not be raised for a long time, and even black smoke was rising. No matter how much Lin Xu tried, the flame was extinguished as soon as it was placed into the stove.

“Mrs. Lin, how much longer are you going to do this? We’re going to starve to death!”

After talking for a long time, Madam Tian had been simply brushed off by Lin Xu, so she had long been impatient and kept urging.

“Why don’t you start the fire, and I’ll go make the steamed buns.”

Lin Xu immediately put down the hook in her hand. Although she was smiling, there was no trace of a smile in her eyes.

“How can I do this kind of dirty work, you better do it.”

Madam Tian pursed her lips, completely unaware that she had unintentionally offended her.

“Starting a fire is a dirty work?”

Lin Xu’s eyes narrowed when she heard this..
