A Farm Girl Traveling Through Time: Raising a Stunning Husband

Shen Wu had some experience in catching fish in the past few days. She went into the water barefoot and stood on the other side not far from the shore, some distance away from Gu Zhou. The reason for doing this was to maximize her chances of catching fish.

The lake water was cool, and the sun above their heads was not too hot, but they carried a lot of loess back and forth, so they naturally sweated and their body temperature rose a lot.

Shen Wu felt the coolness of the rippling lake water and began to concentrate on looking for fish.

Fortunately, there were enough fish in the lake, and the waves calmed down for a while before the fish gathered together again.

Shen Wu did not pay attention to Gu Zhou, but stared at the slow swimming movements of the fish. She half bent her waist and arched her back for a few breaths, then suddenly reached out to the fish in the water. In the blink of an eye, a half-grown fish appeared in her hand.

Gu Zhou also caught one and was about to throw it to the shore when he saw her laughing particularly wildly.

Seeing that Gu Zhou had also caught one, Shen Wu held on to the struggling fish with both hands and said with a smile, "I caught one too!"

Her voice was light and echoed in the air along with the flapping of the fish's tail.

Gu Zhou nodded without saying anything. He raised his hand and threw the caught fish to the place where the previous fish was. Then he lowered his head and looked for the fish carefully.

Shen Wu was excited, but felt that he was about to lose his hold on the fish, so he quickly trotted to a place closer to the chopping board and threw the fish over.

Seeing the child working so hard, she, as the older sister, had to keep up.

Shen Wu seemed to be engaging in a one-sided competition. His opponent was Gu Zhou, who was seriously catching fish. He was competing with him in the number and fatness of the fish he caught.

The two of us, you don't disturb me and I don't disturb you, each of us is sitting in a position, concentrating on the school of fish floating at our feet.

Shen Wu caught and caught again, silently counting the number of fish he had caught in his mind, until he felt his back and waist aching and then stopped with his last fish.

When she looked up, her eyes widened, and she was only focused on catching fish. She didn't realize how many they had caught. If she hadn't been too tired to get up, she wouldn't have noticed that there were dozens of fish!

Gu Zhou had just caught the last one. When he stood up, he saw her smiling brightly. Then, when he looked in the direction she was looking, he saw a small pile of fish on the chopping board. He knew how much she liked the dried fish she was talking about.

"Stop catching it!" Shen Wu quickly spoke when he saw that he was also holding a fish.

If they continue like this, they really won’t be able to bring back any fish!

"Okay." Gu Zhou took the fish and went to the shore, and Shen Wu hurriedly followed.

"Want to braid something and carry it like you did last time?" Gu Zhou was not sure how she wanted to take it back, so he spoke first.

Shen Wu threw the fish on the grass on the shore and looked around: "Is there any wolfberry tree nearby? One with tougher bark will do."

Gu Zhou immediately understood what she was going to do: "We have wolfberry trees. How much bark do we need?"

"Not much, two hangs"

Gu Zhou understood what she meant and said to divide all the fish into two portions, one for each person.

"Just wait over there, I'll go look for it," he said, picking up the machete on the shore, stood up and walked towards a place.

Shen Wu didn't dare to let the child go alone, so he immediately followed: "I'm going too!"

Gu Zhou understood her stubbornness very well. He did not refuse but just looked for trees ahead.

The wolfberry tree is easy to find. There is still a hint of red among the lush green leaves. Gu Zhou arrived under the tree and chose an old tree to start with.

The old tree had never been pruned before and its shape was particularly wild. Gu Zhou pulled down a main branch and was about to touch the thin branches nearby.

Shen Wu hurried over to help. She pulled the branches down hard so that Gu Zhou could better find a suitable branch.

The branch was as thick as a thumb, and Gu Zhou cut it off at the bottom in two or three strokes. As no one cared about the branch and it was very long, he thought about it and cut off another one of similar size.

After getting the two branches, the two of them went to the lake, one holding a knife and the other holding a branch. Gu Zhou took the branch from her hand and started to prune it until both branches became straight sticks.

There is no particular trick to peeling the bark. Just make a cut along the branch and there will be a mark that can be separated.

Since it was difficult to operate by holding it, the two of them worked on tree branches.

Because it is a fresh branch, the bark can be peeled off easily.

Shen Wu took two branches and rubbed them a few times to make the branches hairy and less slippery. After making mental preparations, he picked up a fish and started skewering it with one end of the bark!

She is actually very afraid of touching the gills of fish, as she always feels that there is something inside that will bite off her fingers. However, she is a brave adult and must be very tough in front of children.

Gu Zhou knew from the first move she made that she wanted to skewer the fish. Their family didn't eat it often, and the occasional catch would be put in a basket and carried back. He had seen such fish in the town, and seeing her do it, he couldn't help but want to try it.

He squatted on the other side of the pile of fish, picked up another piece of bark and imitated her movements to start skewering.

Shen Wu saw his movements and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. He whispered: "Be careful of sharp or hard objects in the gills, don't cut your hands."

She also figured it out. This doesn't mean that boys are better if they know more. People like Gu Zhou who are calm, down-to-earth, hardworking and learn quickly will definitely be in high demand in the future.

Shen Wu started to have a seizure while wearing it, his imagination was drifting further and further away, he was already imagining making more money in the future to find a partner for Gu Zhou.

Looking at the dark-faced child working silently, she paused and said, "It doesn't matter if he is dark-faced. Our child knows how to work!" He will definitely be an invincible handsome boy when he earns more money and grows up.

She is more in favor of mutual affection. When finding a partner for the child in the future, she must find someone the child likes, and then let the two children spend more time together. Getting married too early is bad for the health, and having children depends on what they say. It doesn't matter whether to have children or not. As a modern person, she is not so feudal.

The thoughts drifted further and further away, and Shen Wu was shocked by the huge imagination. Damn! She was really into the role...

Shen Wu stared silently at the last fish in her hand and pursed her lips helplessly. She... was too much like her mother... She was just like a fifty-year-old aunt who was urging her child to get married. When she saw her child, all she had in her mind were terrifying thoughts about arranging blind dates for her child, setting her child in a relationship, and finding her child a significant other.

"What's wrong? How about I come over?" Gu Zhou said as he was about to grab the last fish in her hand.

Shen Wu shook his head: "It's okay, I'll do it"

After she threaded the last fish, she closed her lips and exclaimed in her heart: "She shouldn't think in a conventional way! She wants to be a great big sister! All those devilish ideas are doomed! It doesn't matter if she wants to have a child or not! She absolutely cannot become a person who thinks and behaves like her mother!"

"Let's see if we can get going?" Shen Wu stood up with a serious expression. He first carried a basket of bamboo shoots on his back and then hung the tied fish on his arm. He held the machete against the ground with one hand and stood up unsteadily with the help of Gu Zhou.
