Godly Farmer Doctor: Arrogant Husband, Can't Afford To Offend!

Chapter 218: Price Hike

Jin Shiwei gave Hu Feng a bad look and said: “What is it to you? This is what Bai Zhi brought for me.”

Meng Nan also came over and grabbed the food box in Jin Shiwei’s hands: “Obviously, this is for me, so what do you think you’re doing?”

Jin Shiwei anxiously said: “It is for us, you cannot eat it alone.”

Meng Nan scornfully replied: “Why I can’t eat this alone? I haven’t eaten two meals today, right? Can you eat only one meal?”

Jin Shiwei said: “I haven’t eaten today. I am hungry. Don’t be too selfish.”

Bai Zhi was really speechless to these two living creatures. There were also other people in the government office. But, they were acting like children just because of food.

”Alright, there’s plenty, it’s enough for the two of you to eat. Let’s go inside.” Bai Zhi said and pushed Meng Nan and Jin Shiwei to get inside.

Bai Zhi originally came for follow up check up, but she ended up waiting for the two to finish eating… …

The food box was not big, but it was filled with foods. A plate of fried dumplings and six pieces of egg pancakes.

After Meng Nan and Jin Shiwei tasted the fried dumpling, they couldn’t stop. They wanted to ask what it was, but they didn’t want to stop filling their mouths. If they stop, one of them will eat more portion than the other. If one of them lose a piece, they might end up fighting each other.

Meng Nan burped while sitting on his chair, but his hands were still holding two egg pancakes: “These are mine. I can’t eat now, I’m full. I will eat this in the afternoon. Don’t try to rob these.”

Jin Shiwei’s hand was empty, he failed to grab one. What will he eat in the afternoon? He really made a big mistake!

Bai Zhi said: “It’s not good to each too much, it is bad for your body.”

Jin Shiwei swallowed the last bite in his mouth and sighed: “Zhi’er, since we ate the meal you cooked 5 days ago. We had no choice but to eat the meals here. We couldn’t eat much. Every day we pray for the day to pass by fast. We were really looking forward to eating your foods.”

Bai Zhi doesn’t know whether to laugh or cry: “Didn’t I say that, if you want to the dishes I made, you can go to Huangtou Village and look for me? Why did you just wait here all those days?”

Jin Shiwei replied: “Zhi’er, you don’t understand, we want to go there every day, but recently a large number of refugees came into the town. Every day, there are big riots. Gongzi has no time to stay idle. He only had free time today because he pretended to be sick. Otherwise, Gu Daren will once again push this case to gongzi.”

Hu Feng shook his head full of disdain: “Since your accepting your salary as a government official, it is your duty to handle this case. But instead, you pretended to be sick, aren’t you even ashamed of yourself?”

Meng Nan put down the teacup and waved his hand at Hu Feng: “You shouldn’t say that. I am only a local magistrate. I am not a country’s magistrate. This is not part of my job. I only handled it before because he left Qingyuan Town. But now that he’s back, he should handle this case. Besides, this case is very complicated. I’m not in the right position to make a judgment. He should be the one to handle this muddy water.”

Bai Zhi also opened her mouth and said: “I don’t understand much politics, but I think you and the other officials should also handle this case.”

Meng Nan asked with a curious face: “Why?”

Bai Zhi answered: “The refugees haven’t entered the town before, but the rice shop started increasing the price of rice. Now that a large number of refugees came, the price of rice kept increasing. I heard that for 1 silver coin, you can only now buy a bucket of rice. This situation is simply sucking the blood of ordinary people. If this thing continues, I don’t know how many poor people will die from starvation.”
