A Farm Girl Traveling Through Time: Raising a Stunning Husband
Chapter 31: Shopping spree
The two of them walked around the entire street, taking a closer look at anything they saw. Shen Wu roughly walked around the street to buy food, and his confidence increased.
“Vegetarian buns~ freshly cooked~”
When she came across a steamed bun stall, she became interested and asked the guy selling steamed buns: "How much are your steamed buns?"
Seeing that the two girls were wearing shabby clothes and were two children, the young man thought they might be beggars, so he pretended to be unfriendly and raised the price a little: "6 cents each."
"6 cents?! How can it be so expensive? The uncle selling tangyuan over there only charges 3 cents a bowl! Why do you want it so expensive!" Shen Wu couldn't believe it. His buns didn't look that good, but he wanted it so expensively.
"If you can afford it, just pay for it. If you can't, please leave. Don't block my stall and affect my business." The man who bought the buns even used a towel to chase the two people away, fearing that the buns in the cage would be stained with something dirty.
Shen Wu was not annoyed. He raised his hand and pinched him, then looked at his face and said pretending to be a charlatan: "You, you have eyes but you don't know people. You won't be able to do business with people for long if you are like this."
"Hey! What's wrong with you, little bastard! Get out of here! You're cursing me if you don't buy anything from me!" The man came forward and raised his hand to push him.
As soon as Shen Wu saw him coming out, he immediately pulled Gu Zhou and ran away. As he ran, he turned back and said to him, "In less than two months! You! You won't be able to do this anymore!"
The man tried to chase after them, but then he thought of the buns on his stove and gave up. He spat in the direction of the two men and expressed his regret.
Shen Wu stopped only after pulling Gu Zhou around a corner. His body was too stretched. He was panting heavily after running only a few meters: "Ha... ha... sorry, I'm sorry for getting you into trouble."
Although Gu Zhou was still a young boy, these few steps had no effect on him as he was busy with daily farm work. Seeing Shen Wu leaning against the wall and panting, he... had an indescribable feeling in his heart.
What she said before made him think that she was a mountain spirit and a ghost even more: "Why... do you say that his stall won't last long?"
Shen Wu caught his breath, leaned against the wall, raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you curious about this?"
Gu Zhou nodded. He was definitely curious. In his mind, he had already started to review the methods of this great immortal who came from nowhere: "Curiosity."
"I can't tell you now. You'll probably know in a month." Shen Wu patted his shoulder and said, "By the way, do you know where to buy seasonings and fabrics?"
"I know. Do you want to go?" The more he got along with this person, the less he understood. It was useless to think more. It wouldn't do any harm to their family anyway. It just depended on when this immortal would be willing to leave.
Shen Wu couldn't wait! : "I want to go and see, please lead the way"
"Okay, let's go this way."

Gu Zhou took her to the cloth shop first: "This is the cloth shop."
"Is this the place? Let's go in and take a look." Shen Wu hurriedly walked inside, and Gu Zhou couldn't stop her: "Hey!"
So this is what an ancient cloth shop was like. Shen Wu was so happy from the moment he stepped through the door.
The room was extremely spacious. Opposite the door was a counter top. On both sides were cabinets made of some unknown wood, filled with various cloths.
Oh my god! ! ! Shen Wu was ecstatic in her heart! She was so excited that she almost fainted. As a person who likes handicrafts, she almost cried when she saw these treasures that have disappeared in the long river of history.
The excitement that was about to be contained was interrupted by the shopkeeper.
"Two boys, what are you here to buy?"
The owner of the cloth shop looked young, probably in his 40s. He stood behind the counter with a pair of indifferent eyes, which formed a sharp contrast with his friendly voice.
This was her first time acting, so practice makes perfect the second time: "Hello, shopkeeper. My mother asked my brother and I to buy some cloth."
The shopkeeper has received many people, all kinds of people, and he knows exactly what kind of materials each person buys: "Oh, come and have a look at the one behind the shelf on the left."
The shopkeeper pulled the cloth from the shelf with the two people and showed it to them: "Is this the one?"
Gu Zhou didn't understand what she was going to do. When he heard she wanted to buy cloth, he pulled her and secretly leaned over and said, "No, we still need to save the money."
Shen Wu understood his concerns, patted his arm and whispered: "Don't worry, I'm useful and don't spend too much."
There was no one in the store at the moment, so even if they spoke in a low voice, the shopkeeper could hear them. This kind of situation had happened many times, and the shopkeeper could already tell what they wanted to buy.
Shen Wu didn't touch it when she came forward, but just looked around. Her hands had touched wheat and steamed buns, so they were extremely dirty. If she wanted to touch it, she had to buy it first: "I wonder how much it costs per piece?"
"One string of money for a piece of wood," the shopkeeper quoted the price calmly, as if it was something extremely ordinary.
One tael of silver!!! Shen Wu swallowed his saliva. The material was coarse cloth, but it cost so much just for the grey color.
The shopkeeper saw that she thought it was too expensive, so he smiled politely and said, "Is this what you want?"
Shen Wu shook his head honestly: "Is there anything cheaper?"
The shopkeeper pretended to think: "Then... there is nothing left."
Gu Zhou's heart finally relaxed after hearing the shopkeeper's words. He thought she was just curious, but he didn't expect she wanted to buy cloth. Now that there was no cheaper price, she might give up.
Shen Wu had to buy cloth today. She grabbed the corner of her clothes in embarrassment: "But mother asked me to come out to buy cloth. If I can't bring it back, father will definitely blame me." Then she tentatively asked: "Don't you have anything cheaper here?"
The shopkeeper thought of the dirty cloth left over from previous years and had an idea: "This...it seems like there is, those are old cloths with mold spots."
Shen Wu's eyes lit up: "Can you show it to me?"
The shopkeeper looked at Shen Wu's anxious eyes and sighed: "Okay... please wait a moment, both of you." Then he turned and walked to the back compartment.
Gu Zhou saw the shopkeeper leave, and hurriedly pulled Shen Wu to go out: "Buying cloth is very expensive. We have already spent 20 cents. After deducting the money for food, we have to save the rest and can't buy it."
Shen Wu held him back and said, "I have a compelling reason to buy the cloth. In addition to the cloth, I will spend a lot of money today. If you trust me, I will let me buy it. This money can be considered as a loan from you. If you can't pay it back in a month, I will return it to you to buy myself."
"You..." How could Gu Zhou not know what this immortal was going to do? She had younger sisters and brothers at home, and this money was to support the family. If she spent it like this, it would be gone sooner or later.
Seeing that he still wanted to leave, Shen Wu continued: "I definitely didn't spend much of the 101 cents and I still have some left. What I did won't harm you or my family, and I won't leave you without money or food in the future. You can roughly see what kind of person I am after spending these days with me. I never lie."
Everything she had done since she woke up had indeed not harmed them. Gu Zhou frowned: "Okay... I believe you."
He didn't know what the immortal was trying to do, he just wanted her to have enough fun and leave this body as soon as possible.
