“Alright, 1’11 give you an answer the day after tomorrow when 1 come to pick up the dried sweet potato.” Constable Zhang replied after a moment of contemplation.

Honestly, he had never thought about the children’s opinions before and had never taken them to heart.

After hearing Gu Chengrui say this, he felt that it was necessary to discuss it with his children before making a decision for the sake of the harmony of his family in the future.

“Okay, please wait a moment. I’ll ask my wife to add two more dishes, and we’ll have a meal together.” Gu Chengrui stood up and said.

“It’s okay; a few people are still outside waiting for me.” Constable Zhang replied.

“Just call them in together. If you walk back at this time, you’ll be too tired. But it won’t be that grand of a meal, so please don’t mind the simplicity.” Gu Chengrui went straight to the kitchen after he finished speaking.

Constable Zhang wanted to chase after him and stop him, but his stomach started growling the moment he stood up. He looked at the bright sun outside and hesitated momentarily before bracing himself and staying.

When Gu Chengrui entered the kitchen, Zhou Ying had just finished washing the white sweet potato vines. When she saw him coming in, she looked up and asked, “Who’s here again? I heard a man’s voice.”

“It’s Constable Zhang. Try to make it simple for lunch, but make sure it’s just enough so that they won’t half-hungry,”

“How many people?” Zhou Ying asked.

“From what he said, there are seven people, including him.”

“Alright, let’s have soup for lunch then.”

“Sure, do as you see fit. Just don’t make the meals stand out too much.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he took the pot of water and returned to the living room.

After he left, Zhou Ying hesitated for a moment. She soaked five pounds of dried white potato and took out a pound of black noodles.

After that, she simply stir-fried the sweet potato vines with beef lard. She then prepared a pot of water and threw the dried sweet potato slices into it.

When the white sweet potato was cooked, she threw in some dough dumplings, taking them out once the dough dumplings were cooked.

She brought a few large bowls into the living room and confirmed that there were really seven people.

Zhou Ying then returned to the kitchen, took out a large bowl of dough dumplings, and filled it with soup. She put a spoon in and brought it out. “Lunch is simple; please don’t mind it.”

“How can that be? It’s already good to be able to eat such a lovely meal these days.” Constable Zhang laughed.

“The soup is a little hot, so do serve yourselves. Oh, there is still half a pot back in the kitchen if it’s not enough.” Zhou Ying then turned around and went back to the kitchen.

Then, she scooped a bowl of soup for herself and took out a beef bun from her interspace to eat.

Halfway through her meal, Gu Chengrui came in with a pot.

“So fast?” Zhou Ying asked in surprise.

“Yeah, they’re all like hungry wolves.” Gu Chengrui nodded and left a bowl for her. He served the rest of the soup and left.

After the meal, Constable Zhang and the others drank a cup of water and chatted for a while before slowly setting off for the county.

On the other hand, Bai Jingping had just put down his bowl of rice when the head of the military soldiers, who had previously checked the household registration, walked in. “Milord, we’ve already checked everyone. Ten suspicious people have been identified.”

After he finished, he handed him detailed information on the ten people.

Bai Jingping looked at it and said, “Keep a close eye on them. You’ve been busy the whole morning, so go and have lunch.”

“Roger that.” The officer responded and turned around to leave.

After he left, Bai Jingping began to study the list in his hands seriously.

While that was happening, Gu Chengrui visited a few bigger families in the village that had planted sweet potatoes and asked for any potatoes for sale.

Of course, apart from the village chief, his old house, and the patriarch, he couldn’t collect more.

Even with his reputation, he only managed to gather a hundred pounds..
