A Farm Girl Traveling Through Time: Raising a Stunning Husband

The shopkeeper came out from the back with a large bucket, took out one of the horses and said, "This is it."

The cloth that was taken out was indeed as the shopkeeper had said, old and moldy.

"How much does this cost?" Mold spots? This can be removed, as long as it's cheap.

"300 Wen"

Broken! It's also so expensive! Shen Wu felt a little uncomfortable. Could it be that she couldn't buy the cloth this time?

She looked at the cloth in the shopkeeper's bucket worriedly, her mind racing to find a solution, and suddenly she discovered that there were some dirty but not trashy cloths in the bucket.

"What about this!" She pointed to a sermon that served as a lining on the bottom of a barrel.

"This?!" The shopkeeper looked in the direction she pointed and saw that it was a piece of rag from five or six years ago: "It's all dirty and has holes on it. Are you sure you want this?"

"Name a price," Shen Wu wanted it. The rough edges of the cloth looked like it was made of fine, densely woven cloth. She was totally willing to buy it as long as it was cheap.

"40 cents," said the shopkeeper.

"Ah? Aren't 40 cents too expensive?! You said it's dirty and torn, and it's leftover cloth that can't be sold. Why are you charging so much?" Shen Wu almost exclaimed in surprise. This boss was talking about a sky-high price.

The shopkeeper shook his head and said: "It's not expensive, not expensive. I'm talking about the price for one piece, which is 40 cents at the bottom of the barrel."

"We have a whole one! Can you take it out and see it?" Hahahahaha Shen Wu almost laughed out loud in her heart, it was such a coincidence that she came across such a bargain!

The shopkeeper bent down and took out a piece of extremely dirty old cloth from under the cabinet at the back. Because it had not been touched for many years, there was dust in the air when he took it.

"Add this fixed price of 40 Wen"

Shen Wu didn't care whether her hands were dirty or not, and touched it. Fuck! It's numb! It feels very comfortable to touch. If she bought this thing in modern times, it would cost more than ten yuan per meter, but here it's only 40! Buy it, buy it!

"I'll take the bottom of the barrel too!"

The item has been on the shelf for five or six years and no one wants it even if they give it away. How can he not sell it to a fool today? "Let me make it clear first. Once the item is sold, it will not be returned or exchanged. If there is a problem later, it will be useless even if you ask your parents to come."

Shen Wu couldn't wait for him to sell it! : "Of course."

The shopkeeper was efficient and made the order right away: "Okay! 40 cents! I'll pay for it for you."

Shen Wu turned around, looked at Gu Zhou's dark face and said embarrassedly: "Brother... give me the money."

No matter how mentally prepared Gu Zhou was, he was so angry that his hands were shaking. He took out the money chain from his pocket with trembling hands, took out 40 cents from it and handed it to Shen Wu, gritting his teeth and kindly admonishing: "You must take it carefully."

He was so angry that he didn't want to know whether she was a deity or not. He just wanted to discipline her for his mother.

"Yeah," Shen Wu nodded obediently, turned around and handed the money to the counter: "Please count."

The shopkeeper finished ordering and said: "Indeed, it is 40 cents. This is your cloth."

"Goodbye, come again next time!" said the shopkeeper with a smile as he stood behind the counter.

Shen Wu held the cloth and another piece of cloth and followed Gu Zhou tremblingly. This thing was indeed a bit heavy, but she was not shaking because of the heavy cloth, but because the person next to her was emitting a terrible aura. It reminded her of when she was a child, her mother would stand next to her when she did something wrong.

In order to break the deadlock, she cleared her throat and said, "Ahem...we still have to go to the seasoning store and the place where grain is sold."

Gu Zhou squeezed out the words from between his teeth: "I know the seasonings, but what am I going to do with buying food?"

Shen Wu swallowed his saliva and said: "I want to buy seasoning to make dumplings, and I need food because I don't have much rice or flour at home."

Gu Zhou was stunned. Indeed, there was not much rice and flour left at home. He was so angry at her reckless spending today that he forgot about anything else. Seeing that she still knew to buy things for the house, his tone softened a lot: "You definitely need to buy some."

Taking Jiang Yu to another alley, he stopped in front of a shop. Gu Zhou wanted to say something: "I don't know what you want to do, but as long as you don't harm our lives, you can do whatever you want. I remember what you said before, so please spend less money."

Jiang Yu was shocked! Fuck! He knew she came from another world?! When did he know that?!

She was shocked and sighed in her heart, as expected, he wanted to expose it that night, but she didn't know why he didn't mention it after waking up, and she thought he had kept it a secret.

"What are you talking about?" Shen Wu held the cloth with a puzzled look on his face.

Gu Zhou thought she was still pretending and said with his head down, "The store is just ahead."

Shen Wu was shocked and scared. She didn't think she had been fooled again, so she gritted her teeth and followed his lead: "Then...then...let's go."

The two of them walked in one after the other. Shen Wu held the cloth with her hands shaking. There should be nothing wrong with her acting skills, so how could it be seen? Was it because she was too active after waking up? This shouldn't be the case?

In a sense, Shen Wu guessed right, but she didn't know it.

~~

Unexpectedly, the store selling seasonings and food was actually the same company. After Shen Wu saw what he wanted to buy, he forgot about what happened just now and went to the seasoning with the cloth in his arms.

"Hey, hey, hey! Stay away from me! What are you holding is so dirty."

Shen Wu didn't want to play this time, and said directly: "I want some light soy sauce and salt, and some rice and flour."

Originally the proprietress didn't take them seriously, but she didn't expect a dirty child to ask for something, which meant they must want to buy it, so she hurriedly stepped forward and greeted: "Is this all you want, boys?"

Shen Wu nodded: "As long as these are available," we can just get some from the other places in the back mountain.

The lady boss said, "Soy sauce is 6 wen a can, salt is 5 wen a can, rice is 10 wen, noodles are 8 wen."

Shen Wu lowered his head and counted, then found a rough amount and said, "I want two cans of light soy sauce, a can of salt, 20 cents of rice, and two dou of flour."

The lady boss saw that they didn't bring any jars and said, "Cans are not free, 3 cents each."

Shen Wu nodded.

After the proprietress confirmed that she still needed it, she turned around to prepare the things she ordered.

After waiting for a while, the proprietress came over with the things, a total of 59 cents.

Shen Wu glanced at Gu Zhou beside him and smiled embarrassedly.

Gu Zhou took out his few remaining coins without any expression, counted out 59 coins and handed them to the proprietress.

The proprietress counted them one by one, handed the things to Gu Zhou and said with a smile, "Goodbye."

~~

After leaving the store, Shen Wu remained silent, not knowing what to say. She did spend... a lot of money. It was a bit too much to lose all her hard work of several months in one go.

She followed Gu Zhou to the agreed place and saw Uncle Li who had been waiting there. They didn't communicate with each other on the way, just walking one in front and one behind. In addition, Gu Zhou had a gloomy face, which made people feel that something had happened.

"What's wrong with you two? I see that you both look unwell." Li Youfu was very happy after selling things and bought some supplements for his daughter. He saw the two children were happy when they left, so why did they change when they met again?

Before Shen Wu could say anything, Gu Zhou said, "Uncle Li is fine. Sorry for keeping you waiting. Let's go back quickly."

Since they didn't say anything, Li Youfu didn't know how to ask. Looking at what Shen Wu was holding, he wanted to ask something but stopped. He was too embarrassed to ask, so he decided to go back and let his wife speak.
