A Farm Girl Traveling Through Time: Raising a Stunning Husband

Gu Zhou said sternly: "Xiao Wei...", implicitly urging Gu Wei to lie down earlier.

"It's okay, it's really okay. It's still early." Shen Wu hurried over to persuade the little brat Gu Zhou.

I don't know why she is in such a hurry to let her go to bed. Children do go to bed late. When she was young, she would not feel sleepy until around 10 o'clock. Now it's completely dark outside, and she would probably be up around or o'clock at the latest.

Shen Wu couldn't see what Gu Zhou's expression was, but she didn't want to see the two children quarreling, so she moved along the bed and leaned close to him and whispered, "Don't be like this, Xiaowei is still young, and she would be so unhappy if you act like a brother! If she wants to chat with me, let her chat, I'm not sleepy anyway."

In fact, Shen Wu couldn't sleep either, and she was nervous about sleeping with them.

In modern times, Shen Wu has been sleeping alone in a small cubicle for a long time. He has lived alone in a boarding school since he was a child. Sharing a bed with others is really... difficult for him to accept for a while.

"Brother, don't be angry. Xiaowei will lie down obediently!" Gu Wei lay down at the head of the bed with her head tilted to one side with a wronged look on her face, looking at her brother at the foot of the bed very obediently.

Gu Zhou didn't reply, but held his younger brother and moved away from her.

This little brat! Shen Wu curled her lips. Why did he still dislike her?

Anyway, she said that if Gu Zhou didn't know how to get along well with Gu Wei, he would have a hard time being a brother in the future.

"Xiaowei can't sleep...then sister will tell Xiaowei a story." Shen Wu sat back and got closer.

"Stories?! Xiaowei loves listening to stories the most!" When Gu Wei was a child, she loved listening to stories from books told by her father. After her father passed away, her mother told them to her, and then... she never heard them again.

"Brother, is it okay?" Gu Wei sat up excitedly and looked at Gu Zhou who was putting her younger brother on the bed at the end of the bed.

Gu Zhou knew that Gu Wei liked listening to stories, and was a little hesitant about Jiang Yu's suggestion. Then he heard her say with a smile: "It's still early anyway! It's raining heavily outside, so why don't we light the oil lamp and tell a story. Maybe we'll all feel sleepy while listening."

Actually, she was embarrassed...

"Yeah." Gu Zhou's voice of agreement was almost inaudible under the sound of raindrops, but Gu Wei and Shen Wu still heard it.

Gu Zhou stopped his younger brother who was about to crawl to the bed, straightened him out and turned him back.

The oil lamp in the room was dim, and the flickering light made the room look very gentle.

Shen Wu spoke slowly: "A long time ago... there was a poor family. There were three children in this family. The eldest was a boy, the second was a girl, and the third was a child who just learned to walk."

"One day, the eldest brother went to work in the fields. The ground was very dry and hard because of the drought. The vegetables in the fields were ready to be harvested, but the ground was too dry. The harvested vegetables were all wilted and no one would buy them when they were sold."

"The boss thought of an idea. He dug the vegetables out and put them in water for half a day. That way, when he went to sell them early the next morning, the vegetables would still be ready."

"His idea was good, and he sold a lot. But the land was too dry, and it took a lot of time to dig a vegetable. He dug every day, and finally dug out half a copper ball one afternoon. The copper ball was slippery all over, and there were very small words engraved on it. The boss stared at it for a long time before he could figure out what was written on it. It turned out to be the words "Fairy's Spirit Stone"."

Gu Wei couldn't help but say, "Sister, this story is so strange. Why didn't the eldest brother water the crops before digging them in the morning? The land is easier to dig in the morning."

Shen Wu chuckled and nodded her head: "You may know after listening to what your sister says."

Gu Wei didn't interrupt again and looked at her with sparkling eyes.

Shen Wu continued, "The boss thought it was just an ordinary stone, so he put it in his pocket and took it home. Although the vegetables were not sold, the boss still used his method to grow them. When he went out to sell the vegetables the next day, they were all sold out in a flash. The boss was very happy, but when he got home, he was tired and dug the ground to grow the vegetables in water."

"The next day, he went to the town to buy vegetables, and they were all sold out! Moreover, the master of a wealthy family personally requested to eat the vegetables he grew."

"The eldest brother was very excited, thinking that after a lifetime of farming, he could finally earn some money to feed himself, so he immediately agreed to take these orders. For a period of time, the eldest brother made a lot of money, but he found something wrong."

Shen Wu's tone was a little suspenseful when he said this, because Gu Wei blinked and felt itchy.

"All the vegetables at home have been sold out, and there is nothing to sell for the time being. But the old man needs them urgently, so the eldest brother plans to go to the mountains to pick some wild products to sell."

"The eldest brother asked his second sister and third brother to wait at home, and he went up the mountain alone to pick wild vegetables. The mountain was lush and leafy, and the eldest brother didn't see the road while walking, so he fell down, breaking his leg and bleeding profusely."

"He was so scared that he started crying and tried to crawl back home, but he fell asleep halfway because he was too tired."

"I don't know how long it took, but the boss woke up and was surprised to find that his leg was healed!"

"He thought he was dreaming and it was getting dark, so he hurried back home. When he got home, he quickly put down the wild vegetables in his backpack, thinking that he should be able to count some money, and then he fell asleep with peace of mind."

"But what the boss didn't know was that the bead he picked up slowly glowed in the dark, and then emitted a flickering light, illuminating the whole house. It was bright all night. When the boss woke up and went to the town, everyone was not very happy about what he was selling, but they still bought it back."

"After selling vegetables, the eldest brother was going home. This time, the eldest master sent someone to invite him over. The eldest master asked him where the vegetables were picked and why they were so delicious. The eldest brother was an honest man, so he told him that the vegetables were originally grown in the fields and later picked in the mountains. The eldest master didn't believe him and used gold, silver and treasures to lure him to tell the truth, but the eldest brother really told what he believed to be the truth."

"The master didn't believe it! He asked someone to beat his butt with a stick, and he wouldn't stop until he told the truth. The master was so wronged that he almost cried, he really didn't know. During the beating, a round object fell out of the master's pocket and rolled to the master's feet. The master was curious, so he picked it up and took a look! It actually said "Fairy Spirit Stone" on it!"

"The master thought it was because of this thing, so he quickly had someone grab the boss's face and ask him, but the boss didn't know either, so the master had him taken away and he wanted to study it himself."

"After studying it all night, the master discovered that this was a treasure! He could get whatever he wanted! The master was thinking about having treasures, and the next day he had a big box of treasures in his room!"

"The eldest master was so happy that he immediately ordered his men to release the eldest son and throw him back. He then took away the treasure and used it for his own benefit."

"The boss was beaten so badly that he could hardly move. A fellow villager who passed by felt sad when he saw him, so he took him back. A few days later, the town's big master died. Before he died, his servants went crazy and pushed the door open, saying that it was a vision of the gods or something like that."

"A beggar passing by saw this yard, leaned on a bamboo stick, laughed and swam through the crowd, and no one noticed anything was wrong."

"The beggar entered the master's bedroom and took the black copper-like object from his hand."

"The beggar laughed and said to the master lying in the middle of the treasure: "If you were like that farmer, you would not die if you only wanted to sell the vegetables, but you are asking for too much."

"After saying this, the beggar suddenly transformed into a divine being dressed in colorful clothes and flew away into the sky."

After Shen Wu finished speaking, she saw that Gu Wei had fallen asleep on her side. She smiled helplessly and stood up. Seeing that her younger brother and Gu Zhou had also fallen asleep, she blew out the light and lay down as well.

Now... everyone is asleep, Shen Wu doesn't feel embarrassed anymore...
