Quick travel: The poor little thing in the period novel strikes back

"It has to happen, I just can't get used to it."

Shi Yan responded aggrievedly, then looked at the man's expression and relaxed before continuing to speak.

"Brother Zhen, blow out the lights. Go to sleep today. We can go back later when we are more familiar with each other..."

Shi Yan hadn't finished her words, but Gu Zhen had already understood what she meant from her shy posture. However, Gu Zhen still felt a little upset about being kicked by his wife just now, so it was naturally impossible for him to agree so easily.

"We are already married, you are my wife, it is only a matter of time before we do that. If you say you are not used to it, I can accommodate you, but you have to give me some time. You can't let me wait forever. My mother is still waiting to hold her grandson!"

Shi Yan originally wanted to let things take their course, but Gu Zhen asked her to give a time limit, and she didn't know how long it was. If the time was too long, Gu Zhen would definitely not agree and would even question her intentions, but if the time was too short, she would always feel a little uncomfortable.

In the end, seeing that his young wife was hesitant and embarrassed, Gu Zhen simply decided on the time himself.

"I'll give you a month to adjust. You're my wife anyway. I don't care whether you're willing or forced. Once you enter my house, you're mine!"

"Of course, as your man, I will love you well. Although our family is poor, we will not mistreat our new daughter-in-law!"

Gu Zhen's tone was very affirmative, and Shi Yan had no way to refuse, so she could only nod.

"Okay, go to sleep, I mean what I say."

Gu Zhen quickly blew out the red wedding candle he had specially bought, then climbed onto the bed and took Shi Yan into his arms despite her slight resistance.

The man's breathing was heavy and he was only wearing a thin layer of clothing. Although he held Shi Yan in his arms, his hands and feet were still very still.

"If you behave yourself, I will hold you and go to sleep!"

The hot breath sprayed on her earlobe. Shi Yan should have felt nervous, but the original owner's body was too weak. After all the tossing and turning just now, she felt dizzy. She closed her eyes, nestled in the man's strong arms, and fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, when Shi Yan woke up, she was the only one left in the room. Only then did she feel like looking around the room.

Clearly last night was their wedding night, but in the entire mud house, apart from the red candles on the table, there was no festive atmosphere at all.

The walls were blackened by the long-term use of candles and kerosene lamps. The only piece of furniture in the room that looked decent was a large wooden cabinet with double doors in the corner with a portrait of a great man pasted on it, and the quilt that Shi Yan had covered herself with all night. It could stand up if thrown aside, and it was unknown how long it had been since it had been exposed to the sun.

The decoration inside the room can only be described as simple, which reveals how rough the life of the original owner of the house was.

Shi Yan learned from the original owner's memory that now all the Gu family members, except for Gu's mother who was paralyzed in bed, have gone to work in the fields. It is the autumn harvest time and the fields are very busy. No one will come back until noon.

He simply took the old clothes and pants that the original owner had been stripped off last night, and entered the ring space in the blink of an eye.

Shi Yan felt that the old bellyband on her body could not hold anything, and the original owner's clothes were also rough and rubbed her skin, so Shi Yan picked out some clothes from her own space that were similar in color to the original owner's clothes but of soft material, and wore them next to her body, and on the outside she put on the original owner's thin cotton jacket and trousers with patches on top of patches.

The food in Shi Yan's space only included fruits and vegetables. She picked a pear to quench her thirst, then took out the lighter and seasonings she had stored in the previous world, as well as an outdoor pot and coal, and prepared to cook in the space.

Although according to the date on the seasoning packaging, these things had expired long ago in the previous world, the things produced in the ring space will grow naturally, and the things brought in from the outside world will remain in the state they were just placed in the space.

So Shi Yan didn't worry about getting an upset stomach. She made herself a clay pot rice in the space, filled her stomach, and dressed comfortably and warmly before leaving the space again.

Only after she had eaten her fill did Yan think about improving her current living environment. The first thing she did was to take apart all the quilt covers and padding, take the quilt to the well in the yard, and soak it in the laundry detergent that had smuggled in from the space. She then placed the clumped cotton wool on the clothes hanger in the yard to blow it away.

After finishing all this, Shi Yan fetched a basin of water and went into the house, locked the door from the inside, took out a rag, a mop, a feather duster and cleaning liquid, and cleaned the entire house.

Shi Yan was exhausted after putting away all the things that were no longer in line with this era. But when she thought of the unwashed sheets and quilts soaking in the yard, she couldn't help but sigh that she was destined to a hard life.

In the previous mission world, she became a nanny. Although Huo Ming learned to share most of the housework after they were together, because of Huo Ming's obsessive-compulsive disorder, the house was always clean, and Shi Yan also got used to the clean and tidy environment.

Even though she didn't have any feelings about the previous mission, she subconsciously wanted to make the dirty courtyard clean and fresh, otherwise she would feel uncomfortable looking at it.

So when Gu Zhen brought his brother and sister-in-law back from the field, what he saw were bedding and sheets hung out to dry, as well as dirty clothes that he had not had time to wash.

In addition to these, you can smell a faint fragrance in the air, and the young wife who was just married yesterday is sitting at the door of the main room, holding needle and thread in her hands, mending her torn pants.

Gu Zhen couldn't help but sigh in his heart that marrying a wife was such a happy thing, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Wife, you washed all these. You are so capable! What are we going to eat for lunch? I'm a little hungry after working all morning!"

Gu Zhen came to Shi Yan with a smile on his face, thinking that his wife was so capable, so now that he had a wife, he could have hot meals when he came back.

Gu Song and Gu Tao, who came back with their eldest brother, saw the yard full of clothes hangers and immediately ran to their respective small houses, wondering if their new sister-in-law had helped them clean up the house.

Shi Yan's expression froze. She had been busy all morning and her back and waist were sore. She had eaten her fill in the space and didn't cook for several people at all. Although she survived for the original owner, she didn't come to be a free nanny for the Gu family. She hadn't had a good talk with Gu Zhen yet, so how could she rush to be a maid?

So Shi Yan just blushed and looked at Gu Zhen shyly:

"Brother Zhen, I don't cook at home. The food at home is in my parents' room. I am not allowed to touch anything in the kitchen."

Shi Yan was not lying. Because her mother was worried that Shi Xiaoman, this money-loser, would eat something while cooking, she never let the original owner enter the kitchen, so this excuse could be used.

Just at this time, Gu Song and Gu Tao, who had returned to the house to check, also ran out. Both of them had disappointment on their faces. When they saw Shi Yan, they started complaining without caring whether they were familiar with her or not.

"Sister-in-law, why haven't we washed our bedding and dirty clothes? Did you only wash the ones in your own room?"
