Just then, the third daughter-in-law mumbled, "Stop saying the bundle belongs to the girl. I think you just want it for yourself."
She wasn't loud, but Li heard her. Li smirked. "We're still one family. If I take the bundle, you'll only take advantage of me. I'm not that stupid."
The third daughter-in-law said, "You."
The third son didn't want the quarrel to goon, fearing that Gao Mingjiang would say that they were going to split up and abandon them, so he tried to smooth things over. "Fine, fine. It's just a few things. There's no need to argue. We're all family here. How about this? I'll give all the big pieces to Mingjiang. As for the condiments, Mother will be in charge of them."
"I went through a lot of trouble to find those things." Little Phoenix shouted in Feng Wu's ear. "How dare these people take it? Slap him."
Feng Wu smirked and said, "You can take half of the condiments. I'll take everything else. No one is allowed to take anything from me without my permission." Although Feng Wu didn't have any spiritual essence now, she was still very intimidating when she exerted her power. In the end, most of the things were moved to Gao Mingjiang's carriage.
"Rabbit. Fat rabbit." Xiaoshu and Sanya almost jumped to their feet. "Come, let's roast some rabbits."
Feng Wu led them to where the stove was set up. Gao Mingjiang went to the creek, washed the rabbit paper, and handed it to Feng Wu. Feng Wu then smeared a layer of honey on the rabbit. As for where it came from, of course, it was in the big bundle. The rabbit was roasted with honey, and the aroma filled the air.
The fourth branch of the family had its own stove, and the rest of the family shared a bigger stove nearby. The aroma soon filled the air. Other people might be able to stand it, but the third daughter-in-law couldn't stop complaining. "Why are they eating rabbits and we're eating plain pancakes? I won't have it." Old Mrs. Gao was equally frustrated. The others weren't too happy either.
However, Feng Wu only glanced at them and showed no intention to share the food with them. She divided the rabbit into four parts. One for herself, one for Gao Mingjiang, one for Li, and one for the two children. There wasn't much meat left after the entrails were removed, and the meat had shrunk significantly after it was cooked. Therefore, the rabbit in Feng Wu's hand was only the size of her palm.
Gao Mingjiang looked over his shoulder and sighed when he saw how eager his mother was. He went up to old Mrs. Gao and said, "Mother, you can have mine." The others thought that the old lady would at least pretend that she didn't want it.
But in fact, the eldest son, who hadn't eaten meat for a long time, snatched the meat out of Gao Mingjiang's hand and said coldly, "You're useless. Is that all you got?" The other three families had a lot of children.
Gao Mingjiang smiled bitterly and cursed himself for being so stupid. It had been a while since he ate meat, and he had just been scolded for sharing. He shook his head and went back to the fire. As for how to split the rabbit, it was up to old Mrs. Gao. After Gao Mingjiang went back, Li and the two children felt sorry for him. Gao Mingjiang patted their hands. "Don't worry. Mom has always been like this."
Li said grumpily, "I can't control my temper anymore."
Gao Mingjiang smiled bitterly. "We'll see when we get to our destination. Nothing can be predicted while we're on the road.."
