Back to the 80s to Raise a Wolfy Boyfriend - Chapter 33

Chapter 33: Her Cousin’s Notorious Reputation Out There

Chen Hong was still counting money. “Sure. I’ll cut them for you in a moment.”

Her uncle cut a portion for a villager who was queuing at the front and weighed it.

After that, he turned to look at Gu Jin. “What do you want?”

“The head, intestines, and liver.”

Hearing this, her uncle nimbly moved the wild boar’s head that he had cut off earlier on the wooden board beside him. Later, he gouged out the liver along with the intestines and placed them on the bloodstained wooden board.

Together, the meat weighed at least seventy to eighty pounds.

It was impossible for Gu Jin to move it all by herself. Her uncle swept his eyes around the courtyard and saw his son leaning in front of their grandfather’s room. “Come and give Gu Jin a hand, Jiajie!” he shouted.

Gu Jiajie dragged himself over with no expression on his face.

Not minding how dirty the organs were, he carried the wild boar head in his arms. “Where do you want to put them?” he asked Gu Jin.

“The kitchen.”

Gu Jin took the remaining intestines and organs from the wooden board.

She thought that they were going to be heavy, but once she had them in her hands, they were not as heavy as she had anticipated.

Nevertheless, those things were several dozen pounds in weight. Yet, the way she carried them looked as if she was only carrying a bundle of firewood.

Gu Jin squinted, her eyes lighting up as she realized something.

She had now entered the sixth level of the Phoenix Spirit Artifice. Did it mean that her physical strength had also increased?

However, she still needed to find some other way to confirm it.

Gu Jin quietly carried the items into the kitchen, then rummaged around to find the ingredients she needed.

“What are you going to do with all this, Gu Jin? Can you make something delicious out of these parts?”

Gu Jiajie stood aside and watched with disgust as Gu Jin went about her stuff.

“You’ll see.”

Gu Jin did not even look at her elder cousin, who was one year older than her. He appeared savage on normal days and was especially notorious out there in the village. No one dared to mess with him.

She had even been too afraid to talk to him on normal days.

But that was in her past life.

Gu Jiajie cocked an eyebrow when he heard Gu Jin’s light-hearted response. Not only did this girl stop fearing him, but she also sounded like had a devil-may-care attitude.

This surprised and impressed him.

Previously, Gu Jin had a gloomy vibe about her. It was a feeling that no one would like.

Ever since yesterday, however, when she proposed to adopt the wild child, she had changed.

Gu Jiajie stood with his arms folded in front of his chest. “Do you need any help?”

“Yes. An is sleeping. Get one of the wild boar’s hind legs from your father and send it over to the village chief before it gets dark.”

Her matter-of-course reply of instructing him did not offend Gu Jiajie at all.

“You got it,” he briskly replied.

Then he turned around and left the kitchen.

After Gu Jiajie left, Gu Jin gathered all the ingredients she needed: green onion, ginger, sugar, soy sauce, anise, and cooking wine, which was all that she could find.

There were still a few ingredients unavailable, but they were not essential.

Since the ingredients were ready, Gu Jin started to clean the wild boar’s head, liver, and intestines.

Washing them was a real hassle.

Half an hour later, Gu Jin effortlessly carried a basin of bloody water out to the courtyard. Right then, she discovered that another crowd of people had come to buy meat.

She took the basin that weighed over twenty pounds and poured the wastewater outside the door.

Before this, she had tested a physical strength in the kitchen; it had indeed increased.

She tried to lift the basin, which had been filled with the wild boar’s head, liver, and intestines. It weighed nearly a hundred pounds, yet she could do it easily.
