A Farm Girl Traveling Through Time: Raising a Stunning Husband
Chapter 6 Going out to look for food
Shen Wu put the child on the bed and used the quilt to create a large circle around him, making sure that he was at a certain distance from the bed. Then he looked around the room in the dim light from the main room.
This is an annex to the main hall. Judging from the furnishings inside, it looks like an adult has slept there before. The size of the tables and chairs in the room don't seem suitable for children.
Unfortunately, the room had no windows and was extremely dark. Shen Wu had good eyesight and could see the furnishings in the room clearly with the help of the light from outside the door.
After looking at Shen Wu for a few seconds, he turned around and left, as he still had some questions to ask.
When Shen Wu didn't see anyone in the main room, he went to the kitchen to look for them.
Gu Zhou finished the last bowl of soup and licked his lips with satisfaction. Thinking of Jiang Yu, he didn't know what he was thinking about.
Gu Wei, who was standing by, had finished drinking a long time ago and was about to help her brother with the work when she saw Shen Wu standing at the door, his face a little pale, staring straight at them.
"What are you doing?" Gu Wei noticed that something was wrong with Jiang Yu. Although she had somewhat gotten over her bad side, when she saw her, she still reflexively thought that she was looking for trouble.
"Let me see, is there anything I can help you with?"
As for these ancient people, she still has a long way to go to change, so she is not in a hurry and wants to take the opportunity to ask them some questions.
"No, you go back and rest."
Gu Zhou obviously noticed that Shen Wu was feeling uncomfortable. He had not been able to take a closer look before, but now it looked like this man was about to die, with a pale face like a dying old man.
No matter how much he disliked Jiang Yu, she had lived with his family for so many years, and Gu Zhou seemed to still be able to hear what his mother said before she died.
"You must take good care of Jiang Yu and this family. It's mother who is sorry for you. Mother is incompetent..."
Suppressing the surging pain, Gu Zhou bent down and started washing the pot.
Shen Wu did not refuse anymore and went back to the room to lie down and rest.
His health was so poor that he would feel pain and dizziness just by cooking or taking care of the children. Looking at his hands, Shen Wu felt that he still had a long way to go to get rich.
Maybe because he was weak, Shen Wu slept till dawn. When he woke up, he could hear the sound of chickens crowing outside the window.
Thinking about last night, I originally wanted to ask Gu Zhou and the others some questions, but later I felt too unwell and fell asleep as soon as I lay down.
When he stood up, Shen Wu remembered what happened yesterday and quickly pulled open his clothes to look at his chest, then loosened his belt to look down.
Fortunately, the time travel did not change her gender, she is still a female!
Shen Wu had never seen the ancient times in the morning, and he opened the door happily.
It was already bright outside, and the sunlight shone into the yard over the top of the wall.
I took a deep breath and let the fresh air fill my lungs.
Shen Wu's eyes were full of curiosity. He hadn't seen such a scene in many years.
The morning dew was a little heavy, weighing the leaves of the weeds down very low.
There were dewdrops on the surface of the firewood arranged in the corner of the yard, and there were water droplets all over the vegetables in the vegetable garden outside the kitchen.
Gu Zhou got up early. The wheat in the field needed to be harvested every day, so he had to go check on it every day.
Shen Wu tried to push the door and found that it was not locked.
When she opened the door, she saw green forests and mountains in the distance. She really felt like she had traveled to a treasure trove!
Since he didn't know the way very well, Shen Wu didn't dare to walk too far. He just walked around the house to familiarize himself with the place.
Their house is on a slope, the slope is not steep, but it is a bit far away from the houses in the distance.
Shen Wu looked at the environment and the wheat that was about to mature in the field not far away. Based on the sea cucumber he ate yesterday, he judged that it should be around June. The wheat was about to be harvested, and it was just the right time to eat the sea cucumber.
The house was built in a good location, relatively high compared to other places. Shen Wu stood at the door and thought for a while, looking at the hill behind the house, and then at the yard. He immediately decided to close the door and go out into the mountain.
The house was not far from the mountain behind, and Shen Wu reached the edge of the woods in less than a minute or two. Looking at the lush weeds in front of her, she couldn't find any dead branches, so she could only look for a tree and break off a slightly lower branch to use for cutting grass.
Holding the still fresh branches, Shen Wu slowly walked into the woods.
She walked very slowly, fearing that a snake might pop out from the tall grass, and she observed as she walked.
As the saying goes, live by the mountain, eat from the mountain; live by the water, eat from the water. The rich species in the mountains are where the best food is gathered.
Sure enough, not long after walking, Shen Wu saw a plant that looked like wild ginger. It looked very similar, but she was not sure, so she had to dig it up to find out.
Shen Wu found the root of the ginger and dug along the exposed area with grass branches. Fortunately, the wild ginger did not grow too deep, so he soon found the roots after digging and scraping.
Shen Wu first carefully dug away the soil on top, picked out a little with his fingernails, wiped it clean on his body and put it in his mouth to taste it. The pungent and spicy taste spread in his mouth. It was indeed wild ginger!
In fact, she was not sure, because she had only seen this thing planted in her grandmother's fields when she was a child.
At that time, she was still young and she liked to play with water beside the old man when he was watering the land. One time, she accidentally dug up wild ginger and thought it was something delicious. She washed it in water and put it in her mouth to chew. It was so spicy that she cried for a long time. From then on, she had an impression of it.
Although it happened a long time ago, when I dug it up and tasted it today, my childhood memories actually came back to me along with the taste of ginger.
She just dug one and it was enough. The rhizome of wild ginger was very large, so Shen Wu only took the largest piece and broke it off. She buried the smaller ones back intact.
Picking up the fresh wild ginger he had just dug out, Shen Wu stood up and walked inside again. The deeper he went, the more food he could find.
She also found a lot of wild onions and garlic, and even a bamboo forest.
Shen Wu had never seen a bamboo forest before, so he put the things he had obtained earlier aside and tied them up with some hay.
I found a tree branch as a mark and then walked into the bamboo forest.
I saw the thin bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest without searching carefully, and hurried forward to pull them out. They were indeed the extremely expensive June bamboo shoots sold in supermarkets, also called small thin bamboo shoots.
Seeing this, Shen Wu thought that it would be delicious if stir-fried with meat, so he quickly started to pick the bamboo shoots.
The bamboo forest was very large, and Shen Wu had drawn a lot of things. He tied them up with the straw rope he had woven before, followed the path he had taken to where the things were, and prepared to go back.
She held wild onions, ginger, and garlic in one hand and thin bamboo shoots in the other. When she went back to push aside the grass, she actually found wild raspberries and shepherd's purse next to them.
It was simply amazing! Shen Wu could hardly hold back his saliva, and first picked a few raspberries and ate them.
The taste is very good, better than those bought in supermarkets, and the ripe ones are even sweeter.
She hurried forward and dug out some shepherd's purse. She didn't pull out all of them and left a few for planting. Then she took off her outer robe and wore the inner layer.
She tied the sleeve of her robe around her waist, held one end in her hand and threw raspberries into it frantically.
This stuff is expensive and not tasty if bought in the supermarket. This one is obviously ripe at first glance. Shen Wu dared to pick it because he saw traces of birds gnawing on it, and he tasted it himself before he felt at ease.
Shen Wu stopped only after he had taken out a lot of things and put them into the pocket of his outer robe.
He wiped the thin layer of sweat caused by excitement, took a short breath, then bent down and walked out with his things.
Raspberry was closer to the edge and was out of the woods in less than a minute. The place she came out of was not the same place she entered, but it was not far from home.
Shen Wu rushed home with the things, and when he arrived at the door, he saw Gu Zhou and Gu Wei talking in the yard.
Gu Zhou couldn't help feeling angry while holding his younger brother. As expected, Jiang Yu had made some money yesterday and ran away early this morning.
"Are you awake?"
Shen Wu walked in through the courtyard gate carrying a pile of things with a bright smile on his face.
"I woke up and saw that you guys didn't move, so I went out to the back hill to find something to eat."
"Jiang Yu, you..."
The words that Gu Zhou wanted to ask were blocked by Shen Wu's smile and the things she was holding.
It turned out that they didn't leave, but went to the back mountain to find food. Gu Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, but then he realized something was wrong.
"The back mountain? Who told you to go there alone? Didn't mother tell you not to go there?"
Gu Zhou is obviously a child, but when he questioned her, he sounded like Shen Wu's mother, so cruel and scary.
"Ah? Can't we go? Why? How much food is there?"
Shen Wu didn't see Gu Zhou's expression at first. When he bent down to put something away, he perfectly missed Gu Zhou's angry face. But when he stood up, he saw that obviously angry face.
Apologize first! Shen Wu quickly apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't know."
"Is that mountain privately owned? Can someone so rich rent a mountain these days?" Shen Wu thought to himself.
Gu Zhou clearly noticed the change in Jiang Yu and realized that he was too fierce just now. He embarrassedly changed his words: "There are wild beasts in the mountains. You can't go alone."
“So it’s this”
Shen Wu then realized that the other person was concerned about her. She went to the kitchen to get a wooden basin, and said to Gu Zhou with a smile, "I won't do that again in the future."
