Travel through different worlds and experience different lives

Aunt Dujuan smiled and nodded, saying: Dad, that’s not what I meant. I mean, I always feel that the girl has her own money.

It doesn't look like she's spending her man's money at all.

Everyone was curious when they heard this: So, that girl also has money? And a lot of it? Even Jun Chen knows about it?

Aunt Dujuan nodded and said: That's the feeling. Otherwise, it would be impossible for a newly married woman to spend so much money without frowning.

Old Man Chen thought about it and nodded with a smile: “That girl often goes to the mountain to pick wild fruits, but there are no fruits outside the mountain.”

They all want to go to the middle circle or deeper places, and few families will let their children go to the mountains and forests for adventure.

The girl was able to pick ginseng every time. Besides knowing the place, she was also very familiar with the mountain. And I thought, the girl must have dug ginseng before and the Mu family didn't know about it.

I don't know when the girl sold it and hid the money for it.

It could even be that he and Jun Chen went to the county town the next day. It is possible that he sold it at that time.

After all, it is impossible for Jun Chen to give all the silver to the girl at the beginning.

When I saw the girl was wearing men's clothes that day, I knew that she did not go back to the Mu family to get clothes. I could even say that the girl might have disliked her previous clothes.

After all, none of them were newly made for her. They were all left over from other people's clothes and were not worth her taking back for them.

When she came back, she bought a cart full of things. We all thought that it was the silver given by Jun Chen. If that was the case, then this girl might have sold the silver, and a lot of it.

Jun Chen would definitely ask, and Wuyou told him, so they started building a house. In fact, Jun Chen didn’t have that much money.

Over the years, no matter how hard they tried to earn money from hunting in the mountains, they couldn't earn much, and they couldn't bear to see this girl waste it like this. Don't forget, they bought all the land around their house.

This time she spent five hundred taels of silver, and she didn't feel sorry at all. It can be seen that the girl must have made a lot of money from selling ginseng.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Dujuan looked at the old man in shock and said: Dad, it's just like what you see. If this is true, that girl is too powerful.

The old man smiled and said: That girl is really amazing, and no one in the family who studies is as amazing as her.

It’s a pity that few people in the Mu family were willing to teach the girl. If the girl hadn’t learned it secretly on her own, she might not have been able to recognize how to read.

Even though he studied secretly, his knowledge was higher than those from the Mu family who took the examination for the status of a scholar.

You didn't see her signing that day, but I saw it very clearly. If she hadn't been drugged and her hands hadn't lost strength, her handwriting would have been better.

It can be seen that the girl practiced a lot on her own.

Wuyou didn’t know, but even if she knew she wouldn’t care. The original owner had indeed learned it herself, but she had never written in front of anyone. Wuyou didn’t worry about anyone being able to tell whether the handwriting was the original owner’s.

A week passed in the blink of an eye. During this time, everyone was discussing Jun Chen and Wuyou. There was no one in the village who did not say that Jun Chen was blessed.

The main reason is that after everyone has eaten Wuyou’s cooking once, they know what delicious food is, and since then, Wuyou has been cooking almost all of the dishes.

Picking and washing vegetables are usually everyone's job, and the same goes for making dumplings. The only thing left is mixing the filling, which is guaranteed to be worry-free.

In a week, the whole house was built, and the carpenter also made the furniture. Wuyou drew them at night and asked the carpenter to make them.

Now that there is glass here, Wuyou made sliding windows and doors for the doors and windows in his room.

Only the front door is a double door, while the doors inside the house are all sliding doors, and have a Japanese feel. The floor is the same as the entrance to the house.

This is also because there is a ground heating system under the floor and the walls are also heated.

This is also prepared for winter. After all, summer is easy to get through, but winter is hard to endure.

Isn’t it comfortable only when the house is warm?

The worry-free floor heating and heated walls can warm the whole house in winter.

Of course this can be adjusted, and can be turned off if no one lives there.

For example, if the east and west wing rooms are not occupied, the passages on those sides can be closed, so that the heat will only reach the main room.

Of course, this stove for heating the floor and walls is also super large, two meters high and two meters wide. It can last a whole day if burned once, and it can last until dawn if burned again at night. The main thing is that you don’t have to light a fire all the time.

If all the rooms were to have firewood, so much firewood would have to be burned in a day, so the firewood room at home was relatively large. If there was only their main house, it would be enough to burn enough firewood for a week.

After the house was completed, everyone was paid five taels of silver, except for the women who cooked.

The main thing is that she wouldn't accept it even if it was given to her. Not only did her whole family eat it, but she also gave five taels to her husband. Even the most difficult person would be embarrassed to say it.

After all, the food they brought home this week was more than five taels. Who would have the nerve to ask for an extra portion?

The silver he had before was definitely not enough, so Chu Junchen gave another 500 taels to everyone, mainly for the more than one hundred people, um, about one hundred and twenty or so.

The old houses where we lived before were also demolished and rebuilt to be used as warehouses and woodsheds.

They are all in the yard, next to the west wing.

It is surrounded by a large yard, and the gates are four meters wide and two meters each.

The door of the main house is also two meters wide, one meter each.

The windows are all sliding windows, double-opening, both doors can be opened, and the inside is made in the same way, with a screen window in the middle.

Only one door can be opened, and the other is fixed. This is not only convenient, but also makes the room really cool in the summer.

The main reason is that because the house is relatively tall, the ventilation effect is better in summer, and the house is thickened when it is built, so such a house is warm in winter and cool in summer.

The yard has not been cleaned up yet. They will do it slowly after they move in.

What's more, they don't have anything to do, so they just treat it as exercise.

When we moved in, we didn’t invite anyone to come and warm up the house or anything like that. It was also the last day we moved in, so we also treated everyone to a meal that day.

After all, there was not much work to do on the last day, it was all finishing work, and there was no such thing as leaving the house to dry for a few days. After the house was built, it was all open, even after the windows were installed, they were still open.

Where else is there any use for drying?

Maybe others will live in it, but there is no need for a worry-free house anyway.

At night when no one was around, she had asked Lingjun to spray a special insecticide inside and outside the house. This meant that there would be no insects just for one day.

But no bugs will ever enter the house in your life. Besides the smell that bugs hate, there is also medicine that can kill them.

So the bugs were so far away that it was too late to catch up, so how could they come here and seek death for no reason?

In order to cover it up, of course I would find a lot of insect-repellent flowers and plants and put them in the house.

Not only does the room smell nice, but it also explains why there are no bugs in their house.

These days, when making dumplings, Wuyou would just prepare the filling and leave for the county town to buy flowers, saplings and other things here.

After the house is built, we will need to plant some things, so I bought a lot of things in the past few days, including apple trees, peach trees, plums, apricots, pears, hawthorns, etc.

I bought three of each of these trees, as well as some strawberries, watermelons, cantaloupes, and various vegetable seeds.

After the house was built, we planted all the plants we bought inside and outside the yard.

At night, Lingjun was asked to water the pond with some spiritual spring water that was diluted millions of times.

It is rare like this, and those planted are growing very fast.

Fortunately, Chu Junchen doesn’t pay much attention to these things, otherwise it would be hard to say.

During this period, I tidied the yard every day and invited some people to help.

A small pond was opened in the yard, mainly for growing lotus.

This lotus pond is on both sides of the aisle, each of which is a long pond one meter wide and thirty centimeters high. It is only interrupted where the aisle opens, otherwise the pond will go directly from the courtyard gate to the front door of the main house.

There are two large vats next to each door, both of which are planted with lotus flowers.

Chu Junchen looked at Wuyou and saw that most of the plants he planted were lotus, and asked curiously: Wife, do you like lotus so much?

Wuyou shook his head and said: Not entirely, I mainly like the scent of lotus, but I also plant other flowers.

Upon hearing this, Chu Junchen smiled and said: It’s okay, it doesn’t matter if they are all lotus flowers. It would be nice if the whole yard was filled with the fragrance of lotus flowers.

Wuyou thought for a while and said: At that time, I will plant some tuberose or jasmine, which can repel mosquitoes.

It took a week to clean up the entire yard. It was autumn now and many people's crops had not yet been harvested, so there was nothing to do, and Wuyou and his wife had nothing to do either.

They don't need to plant anything on their land this year, but they plan to plant fruit trees and a small amount of grain next year.

As for selling the fruits like this, it was too easy for Wuyou.

We start selling the fruits as soon as they are harvested. If no one wants them, we can can them or dry them and sell them during the winter and New Year.

Whether it is canned or dried fruit, it can be stored for a long time.

At that time, he could ask the villagers for help, so Wuyou felt that this was much better than farming.

So now the couple has relatively free time. They usually go to the mountains to collect firewood, and pile up a lot of firewood in the woodshed little by little. Now they have enough firewood to burn for two years.

Chu Junchen would occasionally go up the mountain to hunt, but now he doesn’t go out to sell the fish, he just feeds Wuyou.

It can be said that life now is indeed more comfortable than any other time.
