Traveling through time and space to become a child, supporting the family by catching fish and shrim

Chen Lang smiled and said, "Why? Are you afraid that Xiaohu will hit me again?"

Li Xiuzhi nodded.

Chen Lang said, "Xiao Hu beat me because I was a bad person before, but now I'm fine. He has no reason to beat me."

"If he really wants to beat me up, I'll just keep smiling at him."

Li Xiuzhi was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean?"

Chen Lang said happily: "Don't hit someone who smiles at you."

Li Xiuzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You are such a chatterbox."

"But you're right, Xiaohu isn't an unreasonable person. You've become such a good person now, there's no way he'd hit you."

Chen Lang covered his chest and fell on his back on the bed.

Li Xiuzhi thought he was sick, so she hurried over and asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Don't scare me."

Chen Lang closed his eyes and said, "I woke up early in the morning and heard such heart-warming words. Oh, I'm drunk."

Li Xiuzhi deliberately put on a stern face and said, "You must have learned these witty remarks to please that vixen."

Chen Lang opened his eyes and laughed.

Li Xiuzhi asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Chen Lang sat up and moved closer to Li Xiuzhi, their noses almost touching. "Madam, are you jealous?"

Chen Lang's warm breath sprayed on Li Xiuzhi's face, and her heart was immediately pounding like a deer. She quickly turned her head to the side, biting her lower lip and said, "No, that's nonsense."

Guoguo, who was standing by, covered her eyes with her fingers spread wide apart, not covering her eyeballs at all. "Daddy and Mommy, shame on you."

Li Xiuzhi hurriedly got out of bed and tapped Doudou's nose: "Stop talking nonsense. Come, rinse your mouth."

After the commotion, Chen Lang was completely awake. He got out of bed and ran to the yard to wash up.

When I returned to the house, I saw Li Xiuzhi putting the hidden money into a small bag.

"Don't take it all away. Leave a dozen or so coins and put them in the cabinet beside the bed." Chen Lang said.

Li Xiuzhi asked, "Why?"

Chen Lang said, "Let's go. Given Mom's personality, she'll definitely come and rummage through everything."

"I lost the money. I'll use it as an excuse to make a fuss when we get back from your brother's house."

Li Xiuzhi didn't expect that Chen Lang had thought so deeply, so she listened to him, put ten copper coins on the bedside table, and covered them with a torn quilt, pretending to hide them.

Because it was still early, Old Man Chen and Mrs. Qin had not gotten up yet. That lazy woman, Mrs. Qian, would not get up until noon.

So Chen Lang and his family of three left without his family knowing anything about it.

After leaving the village, Chen Lang asked, "Guoguo, do you want to ride a big horse?"

Guoguo nodded repeatedly: "Guoguo wants to ride a big horse!"

Chen Lang picked up Guoguo and placed her on his shoulders. He lifted Guoguo's hands and shouted, "Ride the big horse, fly!"

Guoguo's laughter was like a string of silver bells, pouring down on the country road covered with morning dew.

Li Xiuzhi, who was following behind, clasped her hands together and bowed to the sky, muttering, "Thank you, God!"

"Mom, hurry up and catch up." Guoguo turned around and called out to Li Xiuzhi.

Li Xiuzhi said, "Here we go, you two, go slowly, be careful not to fall."

But after walking for a while, Li Xiuzhi realized something was wrong. "Erlang, did you take the wrong road? Aren't we supposed to go to the dock?"

Chen Lang said, "Let's go to the county town first to buy a gift for your brother, and then take a boat directly from the county town to Shanghe Village."

"Don't worry, we'll be there before noon."

Li Xiuzhi said, "Don't bother with that. Just go directly. My brother won't mind it."

Chen Lang said, "How can that be? Your brother has sent many gifts to our home over the years, and I have never returned the gift."

"This time, I will pay back all the courtesy I have accumulated over the years."

After hearing what Chen Lang said, Li Xiuzhi said no more.

The only regret was that because it was too early, the old man driving the ox cart did not come, so Chen Lang could only take Li Xiuzhi to the county town on foot.

Fortunately, after two days of training, Chen Lang's leg strength has improved a lot. Even though he was carrying Doudou and walked all the way out of the county town, he didn't feel tired at all.

The city gates haven't opened yet, but there are already many small vendors selling breakfast on the official road outside the city.

Most of the peddlers waiting to enter the city would buy something to fill their stomachs.

Chen Lang gently woke up the sleeping Guo Guo and said, "My dear, we have arrived in the county town. What do you want to eat?"

Guoguo rubbed his eyes and subconsciously looked for Li Xiuzhi: "Mom, hug me."

Chen Lang said, "Girl, Daddy carried you all the way, and when you woke up you went looking for Mommy."

Li Xiuzhi took Guoguo over and said, "Let me do it. You must be tired after carrying me all the way."

Chen Lang did feel his hands were a little sore, so he handed the fruit to Li Xiuzhi: "What do you want to eat?"

Li Xiuzhi said, "I brought some buns."

"It's cold now. Let's eat something hot so early in the morning." Chen Lang naturally took Li Xiuzhi's hand and said, "Let's go for a walk."

Li Xiuzhi blushed, but she did not resist Chen Lang holding her hand.

The couple strolled slowly along the official road. Whenever Guoguo shouted, "I want to eat this," Chen Lang would immediately stop and pay to buy it for Guoguo.

By the time the city gate opened, Guoguo's belly was already full of food.

Li Xiuzhi put her on the ground and let her walk by herself to digest her food.

After entering the city, Chen Lang asked, "What do you think your brother would like best?"

Li Xiuzhi said, "Just buy two sets of clothes for the two kids."

Chen Lang was a little surprised: "Your brother has two children?"

Li Xiuzhi nodded: "I gave birth to my second child in the spring of last year."

Chen Lang said seriously, "Your brother has already given birth to two children, so we have to hurry up."

Li Xiuzhi's face flushed red, and she pinched Chen Lang: "We're just on the street, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Chen Lang rubbed the place where he was pinched, laughed, and then asked Guoguo: "My dear girl, are you happy if Daddy and Mommy give you another brother or sister?"

Guoguo clapped her hands and laughed, "I'm happy. I want a younger brother!"

Chen Lang winked at Li Xiuzhi and said, "Look, my daughter supports it."

Li Xiuzhi said angrily, "I hate you. If you say that to me...I...I will ignore you."

Chen Lang was very pleased to see his daughter-in-law showing such a shy attitude of a little girl.

This is what an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl should look like.

He brought Li Xiuzhi to the cloth shop where he had bought the clothes before. The shopkeeper had a good memory and immediately greeted Chen Lang warmly when he saw him: "Sir, you are visiting our shop again. Do you want to sell clothes or buy cloth today?"

Chen Lang said: "Let's take a look first."

The shopkeeper said, "Please come this way. The fabrics on these shelves are all new fabrics that just arrived yesterday. The colors of these fabrics are very popular in the state capital."

It is said to be popular, but in fact there are only three colors in total: red, green and blue.

The difference lies in the depth.

There is nothing that can be done about it. The dyeing technology of this dynasty was not yet developed, and these are the only colors circulating on the market.

As for yellow and purple, only the royal family and court officials were qualified to wear them. If ordinary people wore them, they would be invited to have tea with the government.

As for white... it is more often associated with funerals, so if you see a woman in a white dress on the street, there is a 90% chance that someone in her family has died.
