A Farm Girl Traveling Through Time: Raising a Stunning Husband

Shen Wu didn't dare to make a specific guarantee, and only responded secretly in his heart: "No...definitely not... ".

It had been raining outside for a long time and there was no sign of it stopping. The little brother was already fast asleep in Shen Wu's arms. She put him on the bed and asked Xiao Wei and Gu Zhou to watch him first. She then rushed into the rain holding the bowl and the basket.

Anyway, the rain was quite heavy, but it wouldn't flood the yard, so she simply squatted in the kitchen and washed the dishes in the rain.

She put the bowl in the rain to let it wash it first, then went back to wash both pots before going back to the kitchen to wash the bowl.

The dishes washed by the heavy rain were very clean, just like using a dishwasher to wash pots. Shen Wu felt that her operation was a bit embarrassing. Seeing that no one came out from the main room, she quickly rolled up her sleeves and started washing.

Rainwater is like a huge shower head. She used it to wash the dishes over and over again. It was not because she was dirty or had a mysophobia, but mainly because rainwater was not that dirty, especially when it dripped directly down. She did not only use rainwater to wash the dishes. After bringing the dishes back into the house, she washed them several times with clean water before stopping.

After finishing her work in the kitchen, she suddenly remembered that there was a yam in the stove ash, so she quickly swept it out with a wooden stick and brushed off the dust on the surface.

Shen Wu carefully peeled off the skin, revealing the shiny white yam inside. She was a little afraid that it was inedible, but she only hesitated for a second before tasting it.

It was a little sticky when she took a bite, because it was stewed, and the middle was incredibly soft and sticky, comparable to the softness of potatoes. She ate it all in a hurry, thinking to herself: "If it's poisonous, I'll die soon!"

After finishing her meal, she clapped her hands, stood up, washed her hands in the rain, picked up the basket again and went back to the main room.

Gu Zhou saw that his younger sister and younger brother were asleep, and he had nothing to do as it was raining heavily outside, so he placed all the cloths he had bought on the wooden table in his side room.

The fabric felt very comfortable to the touch, the same kind of fabric he used to wear as a child. Unfortunately, almost every piece of fabric had large patches of discolored and moldy spots on it, so much so that the original color of the fabric was almost invisible, with only the dyed color on it.

Shen Wu returned to the main room, washed the linen cloth with the rainwater, and wiped the table. When he came to the narrow table against the wall in the main room, he was a little confused: "This... looks like a place to put tablets?"

Her voice was very soft, but Gu Zhou still heard it. He was stunned for a moment, put down his hand, went out and whispered: "It was used to hold Dad's tablet. When Mom passed away, she said to take it in, so we put it in the coffin..."

Shen Wu felt a little guilty. The other person's parents had just died, and it was a bit inhuman for him to bring it up so many times!

"Then? Where is your mother's tablet? Isn't it placed here?" She still asked...

Shen Wu cursed herself inwardly for being so stupid that she couldn't control her mouth just out of curiosity, and then she listened to Gu Zhou's explanation to her: "The money is only enough to buy a thin coffin. There is no money left for a memorial tablet. Mother told me not to take any..."

As he spoke, his voice sank. Shen Wu felt that if he thought of this in the middle of the night, he would slap himself and scold himself! Let you talk too much! Let you be curious!

She wiped the table with a wry smile, folded the linen into a square and put it back on the scale under the table.

Shen Wu quickly changed the subject: "Well... that... it's raining so hard, how about? I tell you about the clothes I want to make?" Her embarrassed expression was very obvious, but she was unaware of it. Gu Zhou nodded and motioned her to come to the room on the left.

In fact, Gu Zhou should have observed mourning, but his family was too poor. He could barely afford a coffin for his mother, no money to make an ancestral tablet, and no white cloth... How could he observe mourning?

Before his mother died, she repeatedly told him not to buy a coffin, not to observe mourning, and to live with his younger sister, younger brother and Jiang Yu. No matter what Jiang Yu wanted to do, he must stop her from leaving!

"Hey! I say...is there anything to block the rain at home?" Shen Wu touched the raindrops seeping in from outside and hurriedly looked around for something to block the rain. How would Gu Zhou sleep if this side room got wet!

She pulled the hay that served as a mattress on her bed and tried to use it to block the rain that was seeping in from the roof. She was very worried that her house would collapse.

Gu Zhou was pulled out of his memories by her anxious questioning. Seeing her rummaging, he stopped her and pulled out a bucket from under the raised bed and placed it under the leak.

"It's okay...it's leaked before, just use a bucket to catch it."

Shen Wu was stunned...

"Huh?" She was puzzled. The child said he had been leaking before? She quickly asked, "How long has it been leaking?"

Gu Zhou said calmly: "This place has been leaking since I was a child."

"Ah?!" Shen Wu was shocked! How did he sleep?

As if he understood the expression on her face, Gu Zhou looked at the bucket that was collecting water and said, "Dad repaired it before. Maybe the autumn rain this year washed away the yellow mud and hay. It's okay. I'll dig some mud and fix it when it's sunny."

After hearing what he said, Shen Wu felt better. It turned out that the wall wouldn't leak even when it rained!

wrong!

She pointed at the bed and turned around to ask, "Was it so serious before?"

When Shen Wu was grabbing hay, he clearly felt that the grass on the bed was wet!

Gu Zhou walked forward and touched the hay: "It's okay, it's just a little wet."

Shen Wu walked over silently, pulled open that piece, and let him see how wet it was!

When Gu Zhou saw that half of the bed was covered with water marks, he was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly comforted: "It's okay, this bed... is suitable for people to live in." As he said this, he felt a little lacking in confidence under Shen Wu's stern expression.

He used to sleep like this...

Shen Wu didn't argue with him about this anymore, bent down and started to move things: "Let's move the things first and put them where they won't leak."

She piled all the cloths at the door and placed some baskets and bamboo backpacks directly against the cleanest wall of the room.

After quickly finishing her own things, Shen Wu lowered her head and whispered, "I have something to do, you do it here first. If there is anything important, move it away quickly, otherwise it will get wet." After that, she hurried out of the side room and went to the room on the right where the two children slept.

Shen Wu sighed for some reason while looking at the two children sleeping soundly. He went over and covered their belly with the thin cloth that had been kicked away before stopping and sitting on the edge of the bed.

Based on her observations over the past few days, this room should be where the parents of several children live. Only this bed and her room had pillows and patched quilts. Gu Zhou's room only had a tall bed frame covered with straw.

She was thinking about how to solve the problem of clothing and shelter as soon as possible, but she didn't notice Gu Zhou walking up to her.

He motioned for her to follow him out, as it was not appropriate to talk in the house.

Shen Wu followed the others out, and the two of them stood at the door of the main room. It was still raining outside, and the raindrops splashed into the water, creating quite a lot of ripples. Overhead, the raindrops fell on the grass stalks, making a rustling sound, and there was no sign of the sound decreasing.

"Even after the rain we won't be able to open the stall for a few days. I can help you with anything you want to do."

Shen Wu turned to look at him. Gu Zhou thought she was going to say something, but he heard her say, "You can't sleep in your side room tonight. You have to sleep in your parents' room. The room is damp and you will get sick. You are sleeping with two little kids."

Gu Zhou was stunned for a moment and said dryly: "I... I originally slept in that room."

Shen Wu thought he was being stubborn and was about to reprimand him, but then he realized that the house he was talking about was his parents', so he hurriedly praised him awkwardly: "Very...very good..."
