A Farm Girl Traveling Through Time: Raising a Stunning Husband

Gu Zhou still disagreed, but he couldn't find any reason to refute, so he wandered around worrying alone.

"By the way, do you have a bamboo basket at home? I can carry it on my back to sell food, and it will be convenient for carrying things."

"Bamboo basket?" Gu Zhou thought about it but couldn't figure out what she was talking about.

Shen Wu thought about how he had seen people carrying something on their backs when he went to town, but he had never seen one in this village, so he told him what it was like: "It's a basket made of bamboo strips woven together, the kind that can be carried on the back."

Gu Zhou thought about what she said: "Are you talking about the backpack?"

Shen Wu nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, yes! This is it."

Gu Zhou felt a little sad when talking about this: "Not long after dad passed away, the backpack broke when mom was carrying things. Mom had just given birth to my younger sister at that time, and I didn't rush to repair it, so it still broke."

Shen Wu originally thought that he would edit it himself if he didn't have it, but he didn't expect that he had it at home! He quickly replied to him: "This... I know how to do it! Please help me find it tomorrow. It's not easy to fix this!! It only takes a few minutes!"

"You know all this?" Gu Zhou was also surprised that she could do this.

"of course"

Shen Wu was very proud: "You must know this, it's simple and easy to use."

When she was a child, she made a backpack in the manual labor class at school using the bamboo thrown away by her aunt when she moved.

Although it was not big and still a little scattered, it was an extraordinary achievement for her in elementary school.

Moreover, she learned how to make this backpack by watching a documentary. Not to mention how surprised her family was when she made it, everyone praised her for it when she took it to school.

Gu Zhou was still a little skeptical, but Shen Wu immediately dispelled his doubts: "Trust me, I made one when I was about this age. Although it looks bad, the craftsmanship was learned from a national master"!

How could she not learn the skills from a national master? I watched the agricultural channel every day. There was a documentary that was played repeatedly for a while. It was about the last ancient bamboo craftsman in the mountain valley. In order to show off at school, she studied for several days! ! ! !

Gu Zhou saw her confident face and nodded in agreement: "Believe it."

Having said that, the topic has gone off topic, so Shen Wu quickly turned back and asked, "Where are we? Does anyone go to town every day?"

Gu Zhou thought about the days when the villagers went there: "Some go every seven or eight days, and some may go every four or five days. Why are you asking this?"

Shen Wu told him his thoughts: "Um - let me ask this. I originally wanted to get a ride, but if it's this, forget it."

"The next time should be in four days. Do you plan to walk there in the morning?"

Shen Wu nodded, and then said: "Don't worry, it's okay to walk. It will only take me a few tens of minutes to get there. The sun rises early in summer, so it's okay to walk. It will be no problem to carry the backpack with you."

Shen Wu had finished speaking, and Gu Zhou didn't know what to say. He just hummed and said nothing more.

Shen Wu turned around and suddenly remembered the water in the pot, and quickly ran over to check.

Fortunately, I put in a lot of water, so not much was left after steaming, and there was plenty to use.

She put down the firewood and saw that Gu Zhou had not returned yet, so she went to the kitchen door and called Gu Zhou to come and get some water.

You can let him wipe his body and use the remaining water to wash his feet.

"Wipe your body? Wash your feet? I don't need it."

Shen Wu didn't know why he refused, and quickly explained to him the reason why she did this: "The body is prone to soreness after doing farm work. You don't feel any discomfort now. By tomorrow your arms, shoulders and back will be very uncomfortable. If there was no bath tub, I would let you take a bath."

Gu Zhou didn’t know what to think, so he just shook his head.

Shen Wu continued to persuade: "If you don't take a bath, you will get lice on your body and head. Today I will just wash it simply. Tomorrow I will make some soap and you will wash it thoroughly for me! Don't worry about the water, I will pick it out tomorrow. If you have lice! Your sister and brother will be infected too! Do you want those two little kids to have bugs crawling on their bodies?"

Gu Zhou was finally convinced by her and nodded in agreement to take a shower.

Shen Wu gave up her room for him to wash: "You can go to my room to wash first, and then change into clean clothes. I will put a basin at the door for the dirty ones, you can put them in it, and wash them when I go to get water tomorrow."

Gu Zhou didn't understand why he had to go to her room. His face turned red and he stuttered, "Why...why should I go to your room to take a shower?"

Shen Wu didn't know that he had ruthlessly broken his shame: "If you don't go to my room, will you go to the main room with your parents or your own room? Your sister will see us in the main room. Your parents' room is where they are, and your room is facing theirs and can be seen. In the yard, with your health, I think you will get sick again tomorrow."

Shen Wu rolled his eyes helplessly and said, "Tell me, is my house the best choice?"

Gu Zhou felt embarrassed by what she said, so he scratched his head and coughed dryly.

Shen Wu was afraid that he would feel embarrassed, so she said, "It's okay if it gets on the floor in the house. The floor is made of dirt, so water will just seep in. Just wipe it clean with a towel! Change your clothes and come out again!" After saying that, she went back to the house and made a series of rustling noises. When she came out again, she handed a piece of half-white cloth to Gu Zhou.

"Here, this is the cloth I bought. I have washed it clean. You can use it to wipe your body and dry yourself."

Gu Zhou had never met such a person before, and he took it with a red face.

Fortunately, there was not much light in the yard that night, otherwise he would be so embarrassed.

Shen Wu helped people mix the water and poured it in, showing no embarrassment at all.

She raised him like a child and had no shame at all. She closed the door openly and went to the yard to lock it with a cloth.

Gu Zhou used the dim light from the oil lamp on the table to touch the water in the basin. The water was just warm to the touch.

In fact, the hot water is still very steaming in this summer, but there are some swollen and painful places on his hands. After soaking in warm water, he feels a lot more comfortable.

Shen Wu originally wanted to sit in the yard and enjoy the cool breeze, but suddenly he heard the sound of water in the house and realized something he had not noticed.

She is an old lady who has been through it all, so she won't feel embarrassed.

But if Gu Zhou came out later and saw me sitting here, he had been taking a shower in here before...

He is a teenager, just beginning to understand the world, he needs to do more... that... thing...!!!

Then she thought about how she had just enthusiastically helped someone get water and brought it in...she wanted to... slap herself...why had she done such an unpleasant thing!

She quickly ran to the main room and sat down, counting the stars on her fingers.

After a while, Gu Zhou came out of the house, holding the cloth she had given him before for wiping his body, and stood at the door of the main room: "Um... I'm done washing."

Shen Wu's mind was still full of his uncomfortable behavior, and he didn't know what to say when he saw him come out.

He clasped his hands in silence for a while, then suddenly said in a very normal tone: "It's just right, let's go soak our feet, um... the water is in the kitchen, you can make it as hot as you want, I'll get the cloth"
