Back to the 80s to Raise a Wolfy Boyfriend - Chapter 29

Chapter 29: I’ll Be Good to You, a Lifelong Promise

After experiencing the cruelty of this world, he was adopted and given a family.

An Mingji’s heart was throbbing uncontrollably. Happiness had come too soon, and he could not describe his feelings with words.

“I’ll be good to you, Sister Jin!”

A thousand thoughts were summarized with just a few words.

That was the only promise An Mingji could make right now.

Gu Jin replied with a bigger smile, but she was not looking for his promise. She treated An Mingji well, not because she wanted something in return.

She patted An Mingji on the head. “Okay,” she whispered.

Unbeknownst to her, when An Mingji said that he would be good to her, it was a lifelong promise.

Gu Jin’s lips curled up when she sensed the appetizing smell of meat in the air. “Let’s get home to have some meat, An.”

The closer they got to their home, the more alluring the smell of braised meat became.

She knew she had come home at about the right time, as they were cooking braised pork at home.

An Mingji swallowed hard and acknowledged her. They then sped up their pace to head home.

When they finally reached home, the main door of the Gu household was tightly shut, and there were a dozen people gathering outside.

Seeing these people, Gu Jin frowned and knocked on the door.

“It’s not for sale! Wait for the girl to come home first!”

Chen Hong was heard yelling from the inside.

Hearing her voice, Gu Jin frowned again and called out, “It’s me. I’m home, Auntie!”

The people saw Gu Jin return, and they gathered around her. “My children at home are craving for meat, Gu Jin. Would you sell me a chunk of meat? I’ll pay for it!”

“That’s right, Gu Jin. My children are crying for meat because of the aroma of meat from your house.”

Right then, the main door of the Gu residence was opened from the inside as Chen Hong emerged with a bright smile on her face.

“You’re back. Come in quickly. These people are here to buy meat, but Grandpa said that he needs to wait for you to come back!”

Gu Jin looked at those women around her. “Please come in.”

There was so much wild boar meat at home that they could not possibly finish it all. Selling it to the villagers was a good idea since it would earn them a handsome income.

After adopting An Mingji and thinking of their life from now on, Gu Jin ran some rough calculations in her mind and knew that they really needed money.

“Come in since the girl has said so!” Chen Hong quickly urged.

The people gathering outside the house went through the doorway.

The rich aroma of the meat was irresistible to them. When they stepped in and saw the hundreds of pounds of wild boar meat, their eyes lit up.

They swallowed hard, especially when they saw Gu Jiajie and Gu Minmin each holding a bowl of braised meat. The two of them were eating in the courtyard.

Gu Jin walked into the courtyard and saw Grandpa Gu sitting contentedly in the recliner, smoking on his pipe.

Attracted by the commotion outside, her uncle had also emerged from the kitchen. He was standing at the doorway and also holding a bowl of braised meat in his hand.

Gu Jin had learned from Chen Hong that her grandfather was waiting for her return to decide whether to sell the meat to the villagers.

She ran through some calculations and knew that the price of meat at the cooperative was around two yuan.

Hence, she thought of a suitable price. “The cheapest meat at the cooperative is about one-eighty to one-ninety. We have so much meat at home, so in order for everyone to have meat, I will not sell it at the same price as the cooperative. I will only sell it at one-twenty. My uncle will cut the meat for you if all of you want to buy.”
