A farmer's daughter who traveled through time: Marrying a sickly man

"Divide, divide the family?" Xia Yang was so shocked that he couldn't speak clearly.

How can we divide the family property when our grandparents are still alive?

"As the saying goes, a big tree has many branches. I was just asking casually."

Xia Tian knew from Xia Yang's expression that he had never thought about this question.

The ancients had a strong sense of family, and generally a large family lived together. They would only consider dividing the family when the elderly died and the brothers could no longer live together.

A lot of things that were not in line with current rules had been said today, so Xia Tian did not continue the topic.

She was so thirsty from what she had just said that she went back to the kitchen and drank two bowls of water before she felt better.

There was nothing else to do, so Xia Yang prepared to go back.

Xia Tian originally wanted to bring something for Xia Yang, but then he thought about it and realized that the family had not split up yet, and his younger brothers and sisters would not have enough to eat if he brought it back, so he simply decided not to bring anything.

On the day Xia Yang gets married, she will bring Xia Yue and her younger siblings to the wedding herself.

The next day was market day, and Xia Tian planned to go to town to buy a gift for his new sister-in-law.

By the way, buy some delicious food and fun things for Xia Yue, Xia Shi and Xia Chen.

Shen Nian knew that she was going to town to buy things for her family, so she gave Xia Tian a purse during breakfast.

Xia Tian's eyes lit up and he thanked him sincerely, "Thank you, Brother Shen."

She hadn't earned any money herself, so she could only use Shen Nian's money first, treating it as a loan, and then return it to him when she earned money.

"You're welcome." Shen Nian had no expression on his face but his tone was gentle.

Xia Tian feels that he is getting along more and more naturally with Shen Nian recently, and Shen Nian's words are not as cold as before!

Occasionally you can see him smiling, although it's just a slight upward turn of the corners of his mouth.

When he arrived in town, Xia Tian went straight to Jinxiu Cloth Shop.

This Jinxiu Cloth Shop is the largest cloth shop in Qingquan Town. It mainly does business with the surrounding villagers and has the largest and most complete range of cloths!

The most important thing is that the price is reasonable and the staff are friendly.

I went there in the summer when I came to town before, just to look around and not buy anything.

The shop assistants still enthusiastically introduced various fabrics to her without any snobbery, which made her feel very comfortable.

When I entered the store, I saw many villagers from all over the country buying cloth in the store.

There were many guys in the store, and everyone was busy. In the summer, I went directly to the side where they bought coarse cloth, which was the most crowded area.

A waiter had some free time and immediately greeted Xia Tian warmly, "Sir, what color would you like? We have the most complete range of fabric colors."

"The crimson one and the maroon one are five feet each, and the dark blue one is eight feet."

The coarse cloth was eight cents a foot. Xia Tian didn't bargain and just pointed out the color and asked the clerk to tear it, pack it and put it in the backpack.

Then he went to the area where cotton cloth was sold. Cotton cloth was a little more expensive at thirteen cents a foot, so he directly bought eight feet of white cotton cloth and prepared to go home to make an inner garment for Shen Nian.

The day before yesterday, when I was washing clothes, I found blood stains on Shen Nian’s underwear. I don’t know when it got there.

After she finished pulling the cloth, Xia Tian saw that the clerk who had just pulled the cloth for her was not too busy, so she leaned over and asked quietly, "Hey, do you have any scraps of cloth for sale in your store?"

Jinxiu Cloth Shop not only sells cloth, but also sells ready-made clothes. There should be scraps of cloth. You can buy some to make thousand-layer soles or mend clothes.

The clerk saw that Xia Tian had just bought a lot of cloth and wanted to make a good sale. "Please wait a moment. I'll go ask the shopkeeper."

Xia Tian thanked him and waited for a while. The waiter came out and took her directly to the corner of the tailoring area.

Pointing to the two large bags on the ground, he asked her, "These are the only two bags we have. How many do you want? Let us know first. We can only take the scraps of cloth in a bag. You can't open it and pick and choose."

"How much is a bag?" Xia Tian asked.

"Fifteen cents," the waiter replied.

Xia Tian saw a bag as big as her backpack, and it was quite solid when she lifted it. She took out 15 coins and gave it to the waiter, "I want a bag."

The clerk took the money and Xia Tian carried the bag out of the cloth shop.

There were a lot of people and there wasn't enough space, so I just carried it with one hand.

I went to the street to buy some snacks for my two younger brothers and sisters, and picked out a pair of hair flowers for Xia Yue, Xia Chen and my new sister-in-law.

I bought a Bagua lock for Xia Shi. It can be played with and can also exercise his hands-on and thinking abilities.

I passed by a meat stall and weighed a pound of pork belly. There was a villager selling vegetables next to me, so I bought a bunch of leeks and two large cabbages to take home and make dumplings.

Xia Tian saw that it was still early after shopping, so he didn't wait for Uncle Liu's ox cart and walked home directly.

When I got home, Shen Nian was lying on a recliner under a tree reading a book.

"Brother Shen, I'm back. Let's make dumplings for lunch!" Xia Tian put the backpack on the ground, took out the pork belly, picked it up, and shook it towards Shen Nian.

"Yeah." Shen Nian glanced at the meat in Xia Tian's hand, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

In summer, put the meat and vegetables in the kitchen first.

He carried the bag of rags and the backpack over, put them next to the table under the big tree, and poured himself a glass of water in a teacup.

He turned around and asked Shen Nian, "Brother Shen, have you been feeling unwell these days?"

Shen Nian frowned slightly and looked at Xia Tian, "What's wrong?"

Did she discover something?

"When I was washing your clothes, I saw blood on the chest of your underwear and thought you..."

Xia Tian hesitated for a moment before asking.

She was afraid that Shen Nian's condition would relapse.

Shen Nian breathed a sigh of relief, and after a moment of silence, he said, "No. I accidentally scratched my finger that day, so I might have gotten it."

These days, Shen Nian felt that the aura in his dantian was becoming more and more pure.

The night before last, when I was forcing myself to practice internal energy, I didn't expect that my internal energy would backfire. At that time, I felt a fishy and sweet taste in my throat. It might be that I accidentally got it on my clothes at that time.

Unexpectedly, the little girl is quite attentive.

"That's good. Is your finger okay? Let me take a look." Xia Tian leaned over.

"It's okay now." Shen Nian put his hand into his sleeve without leaving any trace.

"Oh! Then be careful when you're weaving. And when you go to bed at night, keep the dagger a little further away so you don't stab yourself."

Xia Tian sat back down and found the bamboo-splitting dagger next to Shen Nian's pillow every time he cleaned the room.

Shen Nian loosened his fingers slightly and nodded, "Okay."

Finally got through it.

"Then I'll go cook." Xia Tian got up and went back to the kitchen.

Shen Nian watched Xia Tian enter the kitchen, picked up the book again, and didn't turn the page for a long time. "I wonder when Mu Feng will find this place?"

"Brother Shen, what kind of filling do you want? Chives? Or cabbage?" Xia Tian stuck his head out of the window and asked in a crisp voice.

Shen Nian came back to his senses and looked at Xia Tian who was smiling at him from the kitchen window. He raised his voice slightly and said, "It's all right."

"Okay, then I'll make some." Xia Tian turned around to prepare the filling.

After a while, the sounds of chopping meat and vegetables came from the kitchen.

After the filling was prepared and the dough had risen, Xia Tian moved the chopping board out and placed it on the table in the yard, and then moved the table from Shen Nian's room out and placed them together.

I went to the kitchen and took out the kitchen knife, basin, stuffing, rolling pin, etc. and placed them on the table, and then I went to get a bamboo curtain.

"Brother Shen, let me teach you how to make dumplings!" Xia Tian looked at Shen Nian with a smile.

"Okay." Shen Nian put down the book and stood up to wash his hands.

Xia Tian rolled out a few doughs and showed Shen Nian how to wrap them. "Look, isn't it very simple?"

Shen Nian nodded, picked up the leather and started to wrap it. Unexpectedly, he wrapped the first one well.

Xia Tian gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother Shen, you are awesome!"

Shen Nian's lips curled up slightly.

Xia Tian rolled out the dough, and Shen Nian wrapped it. Soon, a whole bun was ready. Xia Tian prepared three fillings today: leeks and eggs, cabbage and meat, and pickled cabbage and meat.
