The oil lamp in the room was dim, casting a gentle color on everything around.

After Shen Cuiyun entered the room, she gently placed Luo Luo's little hand into the quilt and tucked the corner of the quilt for her daughter.

The latter was sleeping soundly at this time, with a smile on his lips, as if he was having a sweet dream.

Chen Changfan watched silently, feeling that no world-famous painting in the world could compare to the scene before him.

"Erlang, just tell me what's going on. We are husband and wife, and we should share the hardship."

Shen Cuiyun took a deep breath and silently prepared herself mentally.

At this time, even if her husband said that he had killed someone outside, she would find a way to help bury the body.

Seeing his wife's expression, Chen Changfan couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Although this woman looks weak, she is not weak and can be bullied at heart.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have blinded that bastard brother. This shows that even a rabbit will bite when it is angry, and Shen Cuiyun can also pick up a knife at a critical moment.

But he would never allow such a thing to happen again.

"It's nothing, actually. We just met a few refugees on the way back. I feel that things might not be peaceful in the future, so I want to give you some advice." Chen Changfan smiled and touched Shen Cuiyun's little hand, and found that the latter's palm was full of sweat.

"You scared me. I thought... I thought..." Shen Cuiyun covered her swollen chest and let out a long sigh.

"I thought your man had killed someone outside?" Chen Changfan teased with a smile.

Shen Cuiyun nodded seriously, and then added: "If you really kill him, I will help you bury him."

Well! I really underestimated this girl's courage before, but with her personality, she is a person who can accomplish things.

From now on, he will be in charge of external affairs and she will be in charge of internal affairs. There is no need to worry about prosperity.

After calculating today's income and purchases, Shen Cuiyun couldn't help but be amazed.

On the one hand, she was impressed by her man's ability to make money. His income in just one day was more than others could earn in a year.

On the other hand, people lament the high prices.

Rice costs 13 wen per liter, and the interest rate at the fish stall is 200 wen. There is no place where money is not needed.

Fortunately, the family had stored four hu of rice and had their own residence, so they no longer had to worry about food and clothing.

This is much better than the old days.

Chen Changfan took out a tael of silver and said, "This money will be used for our daily expenses. We will save it when we make money in the future."

There were still many things he needed to buy with the money he saved. He wanted to buy Old Man Ding's sampan so that he could cast a net and catch fish.

He also wants to save money to buy this yard, after all, renting a house is not a long-term solution.

Buying a house is still a bit far off, but I estimate that I will be able to buy the sampan in a few days.

By then, with a sampan, the efficiency of fishing can be greatly improved, and it can also further conceal the truth.

The reason why he always chooses to fish at night is that he is afraid that people will find out that his catch is too abundant and cause unnecessary trouble.

But with a sampan, catching more fish doesn't seem so surprising.

But a sampan costs at least four taels of silver. Buying one so quickly might arouse suspicion.

He made up his mind that if there was no one by the river tomorrow, he could catch a few more big fish.

If there are a lot of fishermen, he will go to the bottom of the water to explore again, maybe he can find some valuable goods.

It’s already this late and the food is cold.

While heating up the rice, Shen Cuiyun made fried river shrimp according to Chen Changfan's instructions.

At first she was reluctant to add more oil. Chen Changfan quietly lifted the oil pot a few times from behind and poured a lot of oil in, which made her feel distressed.

Small river shrimps marinated with rice wine, ginger and salt are evenly coated with a layer of flour and fried in a pan.

It will soon turn golden yellow, and after two minutes it will be taken out and served on a plate, overflowing with fragrance.

Seeing that all the shrimp oil had been fried out and the oil in the pot didn't seem to be lost much, Shen Cuiyun's distress eased a little.

After a while, Chen Changfan also finished steaming the crabs and took them out of the pot. He opened a crab full of yellow and dipped it in the prepared ginger vinegar sauce.

Take a bite and the fragrance will linger on your lips and teeth.

Shen Cuiyun had never eaten crab and didn't know how to peel it.

Chen Changfan specially picked a female crab, opened it skillfully, then used the crab shell as a container, put the crab roe and crab meat in it, poured the soul ginger vinegar sauce on it, and handed it to Shen Cuiyun.

Shen Cuiyun tasted it carefully, and her eyes couldn't help but light up. She couldn't help but eat a few more bites, and her eyes couldn't help but squint.

"I didn't expect this crab, though ugly, to have such delicious meat, without any river smell at all!"

"This part called crab roe is even more delicious. It's sweet and sticky, much better than egg yolk. It's even better with this sauce!"

Shen Cuiyun praised the dish highly, and Chen Changfan was greatly encouraged and peeled another crab for her.

Crabs are cold in nature, so Chen Changfan didn't dare let Shen Cuiyun eat too much at once, so he pushed the plate of river shrimp forward.

"Try the fried river shrimps, they have a unique flavor."

Shen Cuiyun picked up one and found the shrimp skin crispy and the shrimp meat fresh and fragrant without any fishy smell.

Feeling the aroma of shrimp oil blooming on her tongue, she couldn't help but speed up her chewing and took a few more bites with her chopsticks.

"Deep-fried river shrimp and steamed hairy crabs are fresh river food that I have never tasted before. They are very delicious."

Shen Cuiyun praised it highly and even drank two bowls of rice.

Chen Changfan couldn't help but sigh that people in this era really haven't eaten any good food.

On second thought, deep-fried river shrimps and steamed hairy crabs have become new dishes, so couldn't he pretend to be a modern-day chef?

After all, he came from the best era of China, so he couldn't lose in terms of eating.

For people of this era, the food culture accumulated over thousands of years of eating domestic products is simply a dimensionality reduction attack.

After eating and drinking, Shen Cuiyun went to wash the pots and dishes, while Chen Changfan lay on the warm kang, unable to sleep.

Glancing at his wife's graceful back, Chen Changfan felt a little distracted.

He quietly went downstairs in the dark and hugged Shen Cuiyun from behind, scaring her so much that she screamed.

"Erlang, you scared me to death..."

"How scared are you? Let me take a look and measure your measurements."

Shen Cuiyun didn't know what the three measurements meant, but when the other party's big hand touched her, she immediately understood.

In the darkness, Shen Cuiyun's face was blushing.

"Madam, I have something urgent to do now."

"What's the matter...urgent matter? Wait until I finish washing the dishes..."

"No time to wait! This matter is extremely urgent!"

"Erlang... Er..."

Chen Changfan was afraid of disturbing Luoluo who was standing beside him, so he only let Shen Cuiyun say half a sentence.

There was a violent storm that night, and I slept until the rooster crowed the next day.

The pretty lady beside him was sleeping soundly, with tears in the corners of her eyes.

Chen Changfan got up quietly, leaned against the wall and walked out, feeling a slight pain in his chest.

This rib is still not healed...

However, he felt that his physical strength and endurance had improved greatly.

It must be the additional effect of deducing the wave-walking method, which has also strengthened his body to a certain extent.

He filled his stomach, picked up all his tools and headed straight for the Chiwei River.
