?Chapter 23: Chapter 22 Restless Heart Chapter 23: Chapter 22 Restless Heart With blankets, clothes, food, pots, pans, ladles, and a folding dining table all acquired.
Transporting these items back involved a long trek through the mountains, and even though everyone was exhausted, the three of them insisted on having a proper meal.
Stewing roe deer meat in a large iron pot, stir-frying shredded potatoes, baking flatbreads, and cooking rice porridge.
Luo Xingyu had now become a voracious eater, but this sumptuous dinner was not her request.
Both Gao Yuan and Xiang Weiguo longed for a rich and normal dinner just as much.
In these apocalyptic times, when the future held no promise, living life had to go on, and it had to be as pleasant as possible. Adding a sense of ritual and moments of extreme joy to life was important to everyone.
“Uncle Xiang, let’s have some drink!”
Gao Yuan brought out his liquor, a bottle that cost over a hundred yuan, unable to find any alcohol in stores; this was one of the two bottles Gao Yuan had stored.
Xiang Weiguo shook his head, saying, “No drink, keep it. It may come in handy later on.”
Gao Yuan earnestly replied, “There’s no use for it now. I saved it to barter with others. In times like these, tobacco and alcohol become even more valuable, but we don’t need to exchange with anyone right now, so let’s drink up and celebrate properly.”
Seeing Xiang Weiguo tempted, Gao Yuan unscrewed the bottle cap and took Xiang Weiguo’s lunchbox, pouring half the bottle into it.
Xiang Weiguo sighed and then nodded, “Pour some for yourself too.”
Luo Xingyu, with her chopsticks ready and eagerly waiting, softly said, “Then pour me just a little bit too, just a tad.”
Without hesitation, Gao Yuan poured Luo Xingyu roughly an ounce of liquor and then took the bottle, saying, “Drink up!”
Luo Xingyu downed the liquor in one gulp, coughing from the strength of the booze; Gao Yuan swallowed his mouthful, the long-missed spiciness filling him with enthusiasm.
