A Farm Girl Traveling Through Time: Raising a Stunning Husband

Shen Wu quickly asked them to try it: "Today I made pancakes and fried chicken, how about you try it."

Gu Wei was the first to take action.

Suddenly, Shen Wu remembered that she hadn't washed her hands yet, so he quickly asked her to wash them before coming back to eat.

Gu Wei was obedient and quickly stood up from the bench and ran to the kitchen door.

That place had been where they washed their hands since Jiang Yu woke up. They quickly washed and dried their hands before coming back.

Gu Zhou picked up a piece of fried chicken and tried it before his younger sister. When Gu Wei saw her brother start eating, she quickly sat down and picked up one as well.

As soon as you take a bite, you can smell the burnt aroma of the fried meat. The outside is fried crispy dough, and when you bite it, the crunchy sound reveals the aroma of the meat inside.

The chicken inside is very juicy, and some gravy will come out when you bite into it. Because it has been marinated for a long time, the chicken is very flavorful, and the slightly salty and spicy meat aroma makes people want to swallow it quickly.

After tasting it, both of them thought it was delicious, simply like divine food.

"delicious!"

"Ahhh, what a great time!"

They both spoke at the same time, one tasting the food seriously, the other eager to have more, which made Shen Wu chuckle.

"This is very hot, be careful not to burn your tongue when eating it, and remember to spit out the bones inside."

Shen Wu asked them to eat more, and she herself ate the pancakes first and then the chicken later.

Seeing that she mentioned pancakes, Gu Wei also became interested in that, but she couldn't bear to give up the chicken, so she decided to grab both.

She had meat in her mouth and a pancake in her hand. As soon as she spit out the bones and swallowed the chicken, she couldn't wait to taste the pancake.

Seeing that she was not paying attention to this or that, Gu Zhou reminded her: "You have to eat carefully, be careful not to choke later."

Shen Wu tasted his chicken and found it was indeed okay, though still a little inferior to modern ones.

It’s a pity that there is not enough seasoning. The food is delicious but you will get tired of it quickly.

After listening to her brother's words, Gu Wei slowed down her eating speed, chewed the pancake carefully for a long time before swallowing it, and then drank some rice soup to accompany it.

"How did you do this? It's so delicious! The fried chicken is also delicious." Gu Wei looked at Jiang Yu with starry eyes. She was such a good cook.

After chewing the last bite of meat, Shen Wu said: "The batter is mixed with vegetables and some seasonings, and fried with lard, so it is very fragrant and delicious. The chicken was marinated at lunch, and it has been marinated for a long time. It is wrapped in flour and fried in oil. It will be crispy and juicy again and again. In fact, it is mainly because the chicken is fresh, otherwise it would be impossible to make it like this."

Gu Wei didn't quite understand what was said, but that didn't stop her from thinking it was delicious. She nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and really liked the delicious food tonight.

Gu Zhou quietly drank soup, ate fried chicken nuggets and pancakes. The occasional worries in his heart would disappear at this moment, filled with an indescribable feeling.

After dinner, Shen Wu asked Gu Wei to go back to the room to help look after her brother. She went to the kitchen to deal with the remaining oil and put it into an old can.

She asked Gu Zhou if the jar could be used to store the oil. Gu Zhou told her that it was an old rice jar in the family and it should be fine to store the cooling oil.

Shen Wu originally wanted to wash the dishes while boiling water, but when he turned around, everything was washed, but Gu Zhou was standing behind him with an expression that seemed like he wanted to say something.

"What's wrong?" Shen Wu asked him puzzledly, not knowing what he wanted to say.

Gu Zhou didn't want to ask, but the fact that the bowl was not washed clean was something he cared about too much: "This bowl can never be washed clean, it feels very slippery. Maybe I'm washing it incorrectly, but everything else is fine."

Shen Wu slapped his forehead regretfully: "Sorry, I forgot. This bowl is difficult to wash clean with water after being stained with oil. Tomorrow I will crush some soap beans and wrap them with cloth to wash it clean."

Gu Zhou was very surprised by her answer: "Can soapberries be used to do this?"

Shen Wu nodded: "Yes, it can not only wash clothes and dishes, but also wash face, body and hair."

"Okay, I'll pick some soapberries tomorrow. You can teach me how to make them then, and I'll put some in the kitchen."

Shen Wu looked at the two large pots of water that had not yet heated up, turned around to glance at Gu Zhou who was still there: "Um...is there anything else?"

Gu Zhou scratched his hands nervously and wanted to ask her about the stall she had mentioned before: "Um...you mentioned the stall before..."

Shen Wu also had some questions to ask about this, and since he had just spoken, he also took the opportunity to ask some of the questions he wanted to ask: "The kitchen is stuffy, you... forget it, let's go to the yard and talk."

The man followed her to the yard, and Shen Wu asked what he wanted to ask: "You mentioned the stall, what do you want to ask."

Gu Zhou looked at her face, which was the face that he hated yet was familiar with a few days ago. At this moment, he believed very much in this person whose name he did not know. He said, "You mentioned a stall before, and said you wanted to open a stall in the town, so I wanted to ask you what kind of stall you want to open, when you want to sell it, and how to do it."

Shen Wu just happened to want to tell him about this, so they talked about it at the same time.

"Well... when I first entered the town, I also looked at the stalls. There were stalls selling noodles, dumplings, and steamed buns. I wanted to open a steamed bun stall and sell them for breakfast. In the morning, if I don't walk around, I'll go there early to sell the first batch. If business picks up later, I'll get some other things to sell. The road here is not far. I think it will only take a few dozen minutes to get there. It's a little harder to make breakfast, but I can buy more."

Gu Zhou heard this and figured out something very important: "You go by yourself?!"

Shen Wu nodded without understanding why: "Ah, yes. If not me, who else can go?"

Gu Zhou thought that she didn't know something and hurriedly explained: "The beggars and kidnappers outside are very powerful. It's dangerous for a girl like you to go in alone. Let me go."

Shen Wu understood his point, and to reassure him, he told him his plan: "Look at my body, with a pointed chin and a yellow face. If I wasn't wearing girls' clothes, no one would know that I'm a woman. When the time comes, I will just wear men's clothes and do my hair like a man. I guarantee it will work."

Gu Zhou quickly objected: "No, your voice is obviously a girl's. No matter how you make it sound like a man, it will be exposed as soon as you open your mouth."

Shen Wu raised her eyebrows and smiled obscenely, and her voice gradually lowered as she spoke: "Listen... ahem... how do you think my voice sounds?"

Shen Wu's originally feminine voice turned into a greasy boyish voice within a few words.

Her sudden change of tone scared Gu Zhou so much that his eyes widened: "...You...you are not really a monster, you were just lying to me before!!"

Shen Wu leaned over, patted the shoulder of the young man who had opened up a new world, and said in an old tone: "Young man, would I lie to you? My body is not much different from your age. This age is the voice change period. If I press my voice a little, I will sound like a young boy."
