Back to the 80s: Raising my Wolfy Boyfriend-Chapter 60: Follow Gu Jin and You’ll Eat Well

Among the three brothers, Wu Zhiren was the biggest, and at this moment, he was showing a girlish shyness that, combined with his rugged looks, was enough to make him sick of himself. He kicked him.

"I say, cut it out, acting like some girl, how embarrassing!"

Wu Zhiren wiped the redness from the corners of his eyes, stuffed the four big bills into his chest, and glared at Gu Jiajie: "It’s the first time I’ve seen so much money, can’t I savor the moment?"

On the side, Liu Pingyuan patted his pocket full of money, all smiles with satisfaction.

Hearing Wu Ren’s words, he squinted his eyes and laughed: "Go ahead, savor it. If you must, light three incense sticks to show your sincere heart."

"Screw you!"

Wu Ren wasn’t happy, and the slight redness in the corners of his eyes had disappeared during his talking.

Upon hearing the price of ginseng as quoted by her cousin, Gu Jin had one idea after another brewing in her mind.

Before acting on these ideas, she needed to personally go deep into Qingluan Mountain, find the ginseng, and then decide what to do next. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

The Eastern region specialized in growing ginseng, so the price would naturally be a bit cheaper. Wild ginseng fetched a pretty good price, even higher than she had estimated.

Gu Jin spoke up: "Jiejie, I’ll go to the black market again tonight. Take me to meet the people you asked about ginseng prices."

"No problem."

Gu Jiajie didn’t ask her why she was asking about ginseng price or if she planned to sell ginseng.

Wu Zhiren and Liu Pingyuan didn’t get involved either; they knew exactly how their profits were acquired these days and had the good sense to stay out of it.

Their only thought now was that sticking with Gu Jin meant having meat to eat, and all they needed to do was enjoy the meat.

Gu Jin nodded to them and walked out of the door with the flowery cloth bag in her arms.

When she took the money bag back into the room, she found that the little wolf pup had already woken up, sitting on the bed with an apple and a handful of cherries in his hands.

Upon seeing her enter, An Mingji hurriedly put the apple and cherries back on the blanket, looking a bit flustered.

"I saw these when I woke up, I didn’t eat them."

Yesterday’s incident still left him apprehensive.

Gu Jin slightly pursed her lips, closed the door, walked to the bedside, tossed the money bag casually onto it, picked up the apple and cherries on the blanket, and placed them into An Mingji’s hands.

"Xiao An, these are for you to eat. In the future, just say what you want to eat. Don’t dwell on what happened yesterday; I won’t let anyone bully you or wrong you again."

An Mingji lowered his head, looking at the apple and cherries in his hand. He had never seen cherries before but knew apples.

When his dad and grandma were around, he often ate apples, especially the big Fuji red ones, which were exceptionally sweet.

After they passed, not only could he not eat apples, but he barely had enough food to eat.

Clenching the apple in his hand, An Mingji looked up with a taut little face: "Sister Jin, I didn’t steal anything from the Dapeng’s place. He tricked me into his home, ate whatever he did, and falsely accused me. He even hit me, and when I resisted, I bit him. When his parents came home, they beat me too. I didn’t eat anything from their house."

The child’s expression was serious and earnest, and Gu Jin gently stroked his face: "Mm, I believe you, Xiao An is a good kid."

Touching the little wolf pup’s rough face, her eyes reflected a hint of distress.

She remembered An Mingji from the future, who she had seen as a spiritual presence. Though worn by hardships, his skin was well-kept, quite unlike the coarsely textured, malnourished appearance of the child in front of her, with even his hair showing signs of poor nutrition.

She took a cherry from his hand and brought it to the child’s mouth: "This is called a cherry, try it and see if it tastes good."
