Female Farming Pond Fish

After resting for two days, Chi Xiaotong planned to take Tian Yu to the town to buy things!

"Xiao Yu, come with me to town tomorrow! I'll buy you some clothes and a pair of shoes. Buy whatever you want to eat." Chi Xiaotong said to Tian Yu before going to bed.

"Really?" Tian Yu asked cautiously.

Seeing the expectation and temptation in the young husband's eyes, Chi Xiaotong felt distressed, pinched his face, and replied with a smile: "Really. Let's go by ox cart! When the time comes, we can buy whatever you want!" Her young husband's legs have not recovered yet, so he can't walk much.

"I can walk there and don't need to buy anything." Tian Yu said.

"Why are you walking? We have money now, so we can take a bus. It's okay if we don't know what to buy. We can see tomorrow when we get there. We have plenty of time tomorrow anyway! Okay, let's go to bed!" Having said that, Chi Xiaotong lay down.

Tian Yu lay down, his eyes curved with a smile in the darkness. He had never been to the town. He had been staying in this village since he could remember, working non-stop.

The life after marriage was something Tian Yu had never imagined. Even in his dreams, he dared not dream of such a beautiful life.

……

It was Tian Yu's first time riding a bullock cart, and she was both nervous and excited. The two of them arrived not too early, and there were already two women sitting on the cart. Tian Yu stood aside, waiting for Chi Xiaotong to get on first.

"Get in the car." Chi Xiaotong held Tian Yu's arm and motioned him to get in first.

"No, how can a man go first?" Tian Yu quickly refused. He had never done it himself, but he had seen other people do it, and they always had women go first.

"Why?" Chi Xiaotong didn't know about this and didn't care. Seeing Tian Yu's refusal, Chi Xiaotong was full of questions.

"My wife goes first!" Tian Yu said in a low voice.

"I'll help you up first. Be careful."

Tian Yu felt that both people in the car were looking at him. He became even more nervous. He didn't dare to delay, and climbed into the car with Chi Xiaotong's help, and sat down carefully.

Chi Xiaotong got in the car right after him and sat next to Tian Yu.

Another person came and the car started. The road was uneven and it was a bullock cart. It was swaying all the way. Chi Xiaotong, who had done it several times, was already used to it. She kept protecting Tian Yu.

Tian Yu sat stiffly, holding Chi Xiaotong's sleeves. He tried his best to keep his body steady. He was nervous all the way, not only because of the car, but also because there was a woman sitting next to him. Because of the swaying, he leaned towards her several times, and was held back by Chi Xiaotong. He was a little scared and could only lean on Chi Xiaotong.

Chi Xiaotong held his hand soothingly. She could sense his fear and didn't care about being shy. They were getting married anyway, so there was no need to care about other people's opinions.

It was not until Chi Xiaotong helped Tian Yu get out of the car in the town that he finally relaxed. Chi Xiaotong smiled and asked him, "Are you scared?"

"A little bit," Tian Yu nodded honestly.

Chi Xiaotong comforted: "I'll buy you something delicious later!"

Tian Yu had only seen other families coaxing their children like this. Now Chi Xiaotong coaxed him like this. Although he was shy, he felt warm inside. It was just that his wife seemed to be raising him as a child. Was this good or bad?

Soon, Tian Yu had no time to think about these things! Chi Xiaotong took Tian Yu straight to the market. Today happened to be a big market. Tian Yu was dazzled by all kinds of things.

Tian Yu's eyes were almost not enough, he kept looking around, Chi Xiaotong was afraid that he would get dizzy. He slowed down and said with a smile: "Don't worry, take your time to look, and buy anything you like!"

Before leaving in the morning, Chi Xiaotong gave Tian Yu dozens of copper coins. Originally, he wanted to give him one or two taels of silver directly, but Tian Yu refused. He had never received so much money before and was afraid that he could not hold it.

Tian Yu's eyes sparkled, and he looked at Chi Xiaotong after hearing what she said. Realizing that he had ignored his wife, he was a little scared, but after hearing Chi Xiaotong, he felt relieved and continued to look at it with great interest. He didn't want to buy anything, but he was very happy to see these!

The two walked very slowly, and after an hour, they had finished visiting the entire market, but they still came back empty-handed, having bought nothing.

Chi Xiaotong looked at their empty hands, grabbed Tian Yu and said with a smile: "Just look!"

Tian Yu's face turned red and he nodded slightly.

"Come on, my wife will take you to buy some delicious food." She pulled Tian Yu to the place where they had just seen selling candied haws.

A candied haws cost four cents. Chi Xiaotong took one and handed it to Tian Yu.

Tian Yu refused: "My wife, please eat!"

"I don't like this stuff very much. You eat it first and we'll go buy something else." After saying that, he stuffed the candied haws into Tian Yu's hand.

Tian Yu took it and passed it to Chi Xiaotong's mouth first. Chi Xiaotong was helpless, because if she didn't eat it, he wouldn't eat it!

He lowered his head, bit off a hawthorn, and said vaguely, "This time I can eat it!"

Tian Yu didn't answer, but lowered his head and took a bite of the candied haws. It was so sweet that it seemed to sweeten my heart.

Chi Xiaotong took Tian Yu to buy vegetables and meat. There was not much left at home. She bought an extra large piece of meat to take with her to Chen's house tomorrow.

I went to the grain store to buy rice and flour, and also bought some seasonings, which are all necessities of life. There are a lot of things, so I sent them to the car first. If you put them on the car of a villager, you don’t have to worry about losing them.

Originally, Chi Xiaotong wanted to take Tian Yu to find a small restaurant for lunch, but the car couldn't wait until the afternoon, and they both had to take the car back, so they could only think about it next time.

The two went to the cloth shop again. Chi Xiaotong originally planned to buy two sets of winter clothes and two pairs of shoes for each of them. When Tian Yu heard the price of the ready-made clothes, he refused to accept them and told Chi Xiaotong not to buy them for him, even the cheapest ones.

The fabric is cheaper, but, "Can you make clothes?" Chi Xiaotong asked.

Tian Yu lowered his head and shook his head in shame. No one had taught him.

Chi Xiaotong calculated that if she bought ready-made clothes directly, the estimated two taels of silver might not be enough. But to buy fabrics!

After calculating the bill, Chi Xiaotong asked for one more set of fabric and cotton. In the end, she bought five sets of fabric and cotton, as well as one set of ready-made clothes. The fabric was not too good, as both of them wore them everyday, so they didn't need to be too good. There was another set of fabric with better material, which she prepared to give as a gift.

Chi Xiaotong made the decision, and Tian Yu stopped resisting. He was also a little greedy. He had never worn new clothes before, and the one he wore when he got married was his first. He was very careful when he put them on, fearing that they would be scratched, and he didn't dare to do many things.

The fabric was not that expensive, and he had a new winter coat! He wanted to tell Chi Xiaotong that one set was enough for him, but Chi Xiaotong had already negotiated with the boss. The boss also gave him some extra scraps from making clothes.

All of a sudden, he spent one, two or three coins. When giving out the silver, Chi Xiaotong felt a little distressed, after all, it is not easy to make money but easy to spend it! But seeing Tian Yu staring at the silver with a painful look on his face, Chi Xiaotong was amused again.

Pick up the things and go out. Chi Xiaotong only had one arm that could be used, so Tian Yu took most of them. His arms were full, but he was still in a bad mood. I guess he still felt sorry for the money.

"What's wrong?" Chi Xiaotong asked knowingly.

Tian Yu whispered, "Why is it so expensive? My dear wife, I only have one set of clothes. Let's return some of them!"

"Haha!" Chi Xiaotong couldn't help laughing. "Silly boy, one set is not enough, at least two sets are needed. And the money has been paid, it can't be returned!"

"Oh" Tian Yu said in a muffled voice.

When they reached the place where the oxcart was parked, most of the people were there, so they got on the car and went home directly. Chi Xiaotong wanted to buy something else, but she could only think about it next time.

Because there were so many things, the ox cart stopped directly at the door. Chi Xiaotong thanked the cart owner and gave him the fare.
