Chapter 42: Ditching

To ensure a better taste, he didn't stew the meat overnight but waited until he got up early the next day to do it. Since the water tank contained Yan Chenxiang wood, Chen Afu was afraid the stewed meat might acquire an off taste, so he specifically set aside a bucket of water separately.

Waking up early, he stewed the meat and large intestines. After having some for breakfast, he left a bit for Chen Ming to eat at midday, taking the majority with him.

Chen Ming also got up early, worried. He wanted to accompany Chen Afu. But Chen Afu didn't dare to let him get tired. Although his health had improved, he still shouldn't overexert himself. Only when he was convinced to bring Jin Yanzi along did he feel relieved. He also instructed Chen Afu to go to Xile Restaurant. Although it ranked second among the wine-shops in Sanqing County, its prices were fair, and it didn't bully the common people.
