Traveling through time and space to meet a replacement bride? But I’m a man!
Chapter 390 Past Events
After buying the restaurant yesterday, Xu Wenyan always felt uneasy.
I don't know why, but I always feel like something bad is going to happen.
After buying the restaurant, the family still has more than fifty taels of silver, and when Su Cheng comes the day after tomorrow, he can get another hundred taels.
Seeing Xu Wenyan leaning against the bed in a daze, Chen Sanlin also sat up: "What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"
"Brother Chen, do you believe in intuition?"
Chen Sanlin nodded without hesitation: "I believe it. I almost starved to death during the famine, but I had a hunch that I would survive. Look, I am alive and well now."
"Hey, Brother Chen, what did you eat during the famine?" Xu Wenyan lifted the quilt, sat down in front of Chen Sanlin, and leaned his back against him.
Chen Sanlin smiled gently, put his arms around Xu Wenyan, and rested his chin on his head: “There was nothing to eat at that time.
There used to be many willow trees in Jixiang Village. They would sprout new buds in spring, which was extremely beautiful.
It was also from that spring that the willow trees in the village stopped sprouting and the temperature rose suddenly.
The old people in the village all said that there might be a severe drought this year.
When the old village chief was still alive, he organized the villagers to clear out their pots, pans, and bowls to collect water. "
"Wait, wait." Xu Wenyan got out of bed and took out a cloth bag from the cabinet, which was filled with melon seeds and peanuts.
Xu Wenyan peeled a peanut and fed it to Chen Sanlin: "And then?"
Chen Sanlin hugged the person in his arms again: "It is precisely because of the decision of the old village chief that our village is the best among the three villages.
Lasted until July.
The air was so hot that it felt like being in a big furnace. At that time, I heard Wang Deshun, the barefoot doctor in the village, say that willow trees are edible.
The old village chief led the villagers to cut down all the willow branches, peeled them and ate them.”
"What does willow bark taste like?" Xu Wenyan had eaten the new buds before, and they tasted pretty good. "
Chen Sanlin leaned his head on Xu Wenyan's shoulder and said, "It's not delicious. Although the taste is not big, it's hard to swallow."
A low voice sounded in his ears, and the warm breath hit Xu Wenyan's neck, feeling a little itchy.
“When they have eaten all the bark of the branches, they eat the bark of the old tree. When they have eaten all the bark of the old tree, they cut down the tree and eat the roots.
We ate all the willow trees in the village."
Xu Wenyan looked up at Chen Sanlin, then touched his face: "Oh, whose baby is so pitiful? Come on, come on, I won't be pitiful if I give him a mouth."
Chen Sanlin was amused by Xu Wenyan and laughed. He gently tapped Xu Wenyan's mouth and said, "Not pitiful anymore."
"When there were no more tree roots, Dad went out to look for something else to eat. I told you, Dad finally found a handful of red beans."
When he said this, Chen Sanlin's eyes gradually darkened.
"Most of the red beans went into my eldest brother's stomach. I was young at that time and had a greedy appetite. I always wanted to taste what the red beans tasted like.
I asked my eldest brother for some, and when he saw me coming, he drank it all in one gulp, even licking the bowl clean."
Chen Sanlin took a deep breath: "I was really greedy at that time, so I picked up the bowl he had licked and licked it again and again, but in the end I didn't taste what it tasted like." Chen Sanlin looked down at Xu Wenyan: "Wife, am I disgusting?"
Xu Wenyan stood up and faced Chen Sanlin: "Bullshit, my brother Chen likes cleanliness the most. You were greedy at that time, you were fucking hungry. I feel sorry for you just listening to you."
The two looked at each other for a while, and Xu Wenyan shook his head: "Hey, come and give me a hug, my heart aches for me."
Chen Sanlin also smiled, hugged Xu Wenyan from the front, patted his back and continued: "It's all in the past, it's nothing to think about it now.
If people had known about Pueraria root back then, not so many people would have starved to death."
"Oh, it's my fault." Xu Wenyan shook his head.
"How can I blame you?"
"If I had rescued you earlier, you wouldn't have starved."
Chen Sanlin thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't figure out why Xu Wenyan said that.
"Okay, okay, let's go to sleep." Xu Wenyan wanted to break free from Chen Sanlin's arms, but Chen Sanlin held her tightly.
"Hug me for a while longer."
"Ah."
Because Zhan Laowu and others were still in the shelter, Xu Wenyan only asked Xiaoman to go with him, because he still had to drive the ox cart.
Moreover, Xiaoman has been a little absent-minded since Wang Zeren and the others left, so Xu Wenyan wanted to take him out for a walk.
When getting in the car, Chen Sanlin was about to pull Xu Wenyan: "Brother Chen, I want to chat with Xiaoman, you go first."
"Okay, come back soon and I'll walk slower."
Xiaoman, who had just pulled the buffalo out, was still a little surprised.
"Chen Sanlin has left. Didn't he wait for you?"
Xu Wenyan helped Xiaoman to put the car in place: "Oh my god, I can't take the initiative to chat with you, right?"
Xiaoman laughed twice: "Of course you can watch it, let's go."
"Xiaoman, are you waiting for Luo Sanyuan?" Xu Wenyan got in the car and sat down.
"How could that be?" Xiaoman tapped the buffalo gently with a branch.
"Alas." Xu Wenyan leaned against Xiaoman's side, with his feet on the carriage: "Although Luo Sanyuan is a little bit stupid and a little bit fierce.
She is not very good-looking and used to like visiting brothels.
But he got up fine.”
"Haha...are you praising him?"
"Oh, you haven't been working as efficiently as before these days. It's hard for me as your boss to do a good job."
Xiaoman nodded: "So that's how it is. I've been feeling dizzy these days because I caught a cold. It won't interfere with my work for you."
"You still want Luo Sanyuan to come find you, right?"
"do not know."
Since Xiaoman didn't say anything, Xu Wenyan didn't want to ask any more questions.
"Brother can only help you so far." Xu Wenyan muttered to himself.
"Okay, I'm going to go find Brother Chen."
The three men tied up the old mule and the buffalo and walked down the mountain.
This path was hidden quite well by Zhan Laowu and his men, and ordinary people might not be able to find it.
The main purpose of this visit is to collect jujubes to make sugar.
There are also rare crops such as chestnuts and walnuts.
Whether it is made into pastries or put into drinks, Xu Wenyan is confident that it will sell well.
