A Farm Girl Traveling Through Time: Raising a Stunning Husband

As she turned around, she came to the place where children were copying calligraphy at the counter. She took a look at the children's handwriting, which was even worse than what she had written when she joined the club.

She felt it was a bit shameless to compare her age, which was almost 23 years old at the time, with the child who was a few years younger. She only took a glance and ate the last bite of the bun before walking towards the door.

Gu Zhou also got two kinds of seeds and counted out 20 cents to give to the shopkeeper.

Shen Wu was a little surprised that these seeds cost 20 cents. Anyway, she looked young and children spoke frankly, so she said, "Shopkeeper, these two seeds are a bit expensive, why do you want 20 cents?"

The shopkeeper was not annoyed, as he liked children anyway. The little girl looked well-behaved and cute. She didn't touch anything when she came into the store, she just walked around looking around out of curiosity. So he explained to her the reason.

"Our seeds have all been selected three times, so they are good seeds and naturally more expensive. In addition, it is already late to plant millet now, and there are not many left in the store, only this slightly more expensive kind. There are also cheap radish seeds, but the survival rate of the seedlings is not high. This kind only needs to be sprinkled into the ground a little to produce many seedlings. Autumn radish will grow quickly as long as it is well cared for, so this kind is also a good seed. Both are good seeds, so the price is definitely more expensive."

"Oh, so that's how it is. Thank you, shopkeeper, for clearing up my confusion."

Shen Wu turned around to leave, but heard the child at the counter tugging at the corner of the shopkeeper's clothes, humming in a baby voice that she wanted to eat her buns.

The shopkeeper squatted down and patiently explained to him: "The sage said that there must be a time to eat. Now is the time for you to copy calligraphy. How can you put down your pen and ink to look for food? Besides, those are the food for the two little guests. They will be gone after they are eaten. You are clinging to them like this. You are not a good child."

The child was still young, and although he listened to his father's teachings patiently, he ignored them and continued to pull at his father's clothes and make a fuss.

"Xu'er just wants to eat! Xu'er is so hungry that he doesn't even have the strength to write."

The shopkeeper had a son in his old age, and he loved this hard-earned son very much. He had no choice but to stand up, bow, and ask where the buns were bought from.

"I wonder where the two little guests bought the food from. My little son is spoiled and is always craving for food. Please point to a stall and I'll buy some."

After Shen Wu heard this long and somewhat pedantic string of words, he was unable to react for a moment.

After tasting it, she found that the sign had come. She took it and ate it around and attracted a small customer. It seemed that she would become a rich woman in the future.

While Gu Zhou was still thinking about how to respond, Shen Wu spoke: "I understand. Children are always greedy. But if you ask where you bought these buns, I really can't tell you."

The shopkeeper felt a little regretful. His sons were still making a fuss, but he couldn't ask them anymore. They didn't want to talk, and he couldn't force the two children.

He was just about to turn around to comfort the child when he heard Shen Wu say again: "You can't buy these buns anywhere else. If you ask me where to buy them, I really can't tell you clearly. These are buns made from wild vegetables picked up behind the house. They are not presentable food. And these were all wrapped yesterday afternoon. We heated them up today and eat them on the road."

The shopkeeper was very happy: "Did you pack it here to eat? If there is any left, can you sell me one?"

Shen Wu's eyes widened slightly, with an expression of disbelief: "This...this...is from yesterday. It has been heated once today. I'm afraid it's not fresh anymore. Besides, it's just something I picked up casually."

The shopkeeper had eaten leftover meals before, so there was naturally no big problem. Seeing that they were easy to talk to, he continued: "Children are not precious babies. They can still eat last night's food. If you can, could you please give them some favor?"

Shen Wu was helpless and said with a look of resignation: "If you want to buy it for your child, you don't have to. As long as you don't mind the coarse farmer's meal, I can give it to you."

The shopkeeper naturally refused and took out four cents to give it to Shen Wu. Shen Wu naturally refused and turned to Gu Zhou and said, "Brother, can you give me the bag?"

Ever since she started pretending to be a child, she has been deliberately raising her voice a little, and even speaking in a sticky way, making people think that this child is well-behaved and obedient.

Gu Zhou's face did not change, but she was already at a loss in her heart. Could it be that something went wrong with her fall? Or was there really some kind of evil spirit inside her? And it came out now? The thoughts that had been suppressed in her heart surged up again.

He looked no different from before, but he walked forward a little stiffly and handed over the bundle.

Shen Wu took the bundle, took out the only clean steaming cloth in the house that had been repeatedly scalded with boiling water, opened it and took out two buns.

"Here... one for you, and you hold one for your father, and we will eat together later."

Shen Wu is not very old to begin with, and he is not very tall due to malnutrition, so he is not much taller than a child.

Standing up, Shen Wu packed up the bag again and said to the shopkeeper: "The buns are still a little warm, but you can't give them to him yet. It's best to heat up the food for children. You can steam them in a pot for a while, and you can eat them when they are heated through."

The shopkeeper quickly thanked them and offered to pay, but Shen Wu waved his hand and said, "I'm afraid I'll have to buy things from you in the future, so there's no need to be so polite. If you come up with anything new in the future, you can just show it to me."

After saying that, Shen Wu quickly pulled Gu Zhou away, fearing that he would have to take the money.

Gu Zhou was afraid that something might happen if he ate the buns, so he wanted to go back after leaving the house.

Shen Wu saw his worry, pulled him aside and said, "I put the buns in the yard last night and covered them with a rattan frame. I was afraid they would get hot, so I kept them at intervals. In addition, I put river water under the basin where the buns were placed. It's icy cool, and it won't be hot at night, so there's no problem. I also told them to heat it up and told him that I made it yesterday, so I gave it to him. He insisted, so I gave it to him."

Gu Zhou was puzzled: "Will this be okay? What is a vaccination?"

Shen Wu pulled him and said, "It was hot from the time I woke up to the day we harvested wheat, but the hottest time was at noon when we dried the wheat. From then on, it was cool at night. The wind was a little warm this morning, but it wasn't so warm that the food would be over-fermented and inedible. And I guess you haven't gotten up at night recently, so you definitely don't know that the wind has been a little cool at night these days, so there's no problem. Besides, if there was a problem, how could you and I have eaten and still be walking around the street here?"

After saying this, Shen Wu released his sleeve, touched his chin and said: "As for vaccination, it means that I point out the shortcomings or possible harms of a thing or an item first. If the other party still insists on his point of view, then there is no problem."

Shen Wu didn't know how to explain it well, and spoke carelessly throughout the conversation, but Gu Zhou nodded as if he understood and looked very enlightened.

Seeing that Gu Zhou seemed to understand and didn't ask her any more questions, Shen Wu asked him to walk faster: "Come on, let's continue shopping, we still need something at home"!
