Traveling through ancient times to get rid of poverty, the whole network sends me express delivery
Chapter 6: Sister Hu's Proposal
Shen Wanning looked and looked, there were all kinds of strange things, such as a pen, a mouse, and even a piece of underwear...
It was probably some netizens who were curious and sent some things to her, so she returned them.
After picking and choosing, she finally found a banana to fill her stomach. Fortunately, she also saw five pounds of brown rice. I guess they saw the Lin family's situation and knew that it was not convenient to take out refined rice at the moment, so they sent her brown rice specially.
First take out the brown rice and put it in the express station. Shen Wanning looked at the time on her mobile phone. Almost an hour and a half had passed. She slipped out of the express station.
Fortunately, when she came out, Xu was still sleeping soundly and didn't notice Shen Wanning's disappearance at all.
She then tried to put her consciousness into the express station to see if she could use her consciousness to move things inside the station.
Otherwise, it would be too inconvenient if she had to put her whole body into the express station every time. She tried to use her consciousness to take out a pen from the express station, and soon the pen appeared in her hand.
She felt relieved and tried to control the phone with her mind. She could actually open the Douyin app and type on it. The thought of this made her very excited.
Oh my god, this cheat is really powerful!
She glanced at her phone and saw that it was almost twelve o'clock. She was a little sleepy, and even though the hardwood floor was uncomfortable, she fell asleep in a daze.
It was only the hour of Mao, before daybreak, when Xu woke up. Shen Wanning was a light sleeper, so she woke up as soon as Xu turned over.
"As expected, she is a daughter of a wealthy family, ignorant of the sufferings of ordinary people. It's already this late, and she still hasn't gotten up."
As Xu got out of bed and put on her clothes, she glanced at Shen Wanning who was still lying on the bed.
Shen Wanning sighed, resigned herself to her fate, and got dressed. After getting dressed, Shen Wanning used her consciousness to begin the day's livestream.
When she left the room, everyone else had already gotten up. Lin Dashan was sitting aside weaving a bamboo basket, Lin Jingce was chopping wood in the yard, and Lin Jingcheng had gone out to fetch water.
Even the three boys were catching insects on the leaves in the vegetable garden.
"Wanning, did you sleep well last night? Are you used to it?" Aunt Zhang was washing clothes in the yard. When she saw Shen Wanning coming out, she greeted her with a smile.
Shen Wanning nodded and said, "I slept well. I'll go to the kitchen to help my sister-in-law cook."
Seeing her enter the kitchen, Xu pursed her lips and signaled her to light the fire.
"Don't put too much firewood, or the pancakes will get burnt."
While Xu was making the pancake, Shen Wanning quietly took out two kilograms of brown rice and poured it into the rice jar. She didn't dare pour too much at once for fear of being discovered.
This time, Shen Wanning had finally learned from her experience and burned the fire quite well. Mrs. Xu didn't give her any cold shoulder.
After breakfast was ready, Wen came out of the room slowly. Aunt Zhang did not blame her, but quickly asked her to wash up and come to eat.
Breakfast was half a corn pancake per person, mixed with rice bran and some wild vegetables, which made the throat feel harsh when swallowed.
Even so, everyone still ate with relish, and Shen Wanning was not pretentious. At most, she would chew a few more bites before swallowing.
The three boys ate very quickly and finished the pancakes in no time.
"Xiaohe, go get a bowl of water for your aunt. She seems to be choking. Don't let her vomit it out, or she will waste food." Xu said deliberately.
Lin He put down the bowl and immediately went to the kitchen to bring a bowl of water and handed it to Shen Wanning. Shen Wanning took the water, drank it in a big gulp, and her throat felt much better.
"After dinner, Wen, go wash the dishes. I'll take Xu and Wan Ning to the mountains to pick wild vegetables." Aunt Zhang wiped her mouth with her hand and spoke.
There is not much work to be done in the fields now. Lin Dashan usually weaves some bamboo baskets at home and sells them for some money.
Lin Jingce and Lin Jingcheng would go up the mountain to collect firewood, and if they had any left, they would carry it to the street to sell. They would also set a few traps in the mountains, and if they were lucky, they would even hunt rabbits or pheasants.
As for the women in the family, they basically went up the mountain to pick wild vegetables. Lin Jiang was a little older, and he was already learning carpentry from a carpenter in the village. At least he had a skill, and he would not lack food in the future.
Before the drought, Lin He liked to follow a group of other kids in the village to go fishing in the river and pick bird eggs from trees. But now the river is dry and the bird eggs have been almost all taken away by them, so he spends most of his time going up the mountain to pick wild vegetables.
After dinner, Aunt Zhang gave Xu and Wan Ning a basket each, and they headed up the mountain together, with Lin He and Lin Hu following behind them.
"Hey, isn't this Aunt Zhang? Why is there such a beautiful girl following you? Isn't she a relative of yours? Why have I never seen her before?"
As soon as she left the hospital, she ran into the most gossipy woman in the village, Mrs. Hu. She kept glancing at Shen Wanning, her eyes rolling around, and it was unclear what she was thinking.
Aunt Zhang took a step forward, standing in front of Shen Wanning. "This is my daughter. Something happened at home, so she came to stay with me for a while."
Mrs. Hu came over with a flattering smile on her face and reached out to hold Shen Wanning's hand, but Mrs. Xu grabbed Shen Wanning and prevented her from touching her.
"Oh, such a pretty girl, but she's not engaged yet! How about I find a marriage for her? Just based on her looks, she'll be able to charm any man no matter which family she marries into."
"Bah! Don't even think about taking advantage of Wan Ning. Such a good marriage should be left to your girl Lin Yueliang!" Aunt Zhang said with a sound of disdain.
Mrs. Hu put one hand on her waist and pointed at Aunt Zhang with the other, cursing, "Hey, what I want to talk about this time is really a good marriage. If Mr. Liu didn't look down on my daughter Yueyue, this good thing wouldn't even be yours!"
Aunt Zhang sneered, "Oh, Mr. Liu is already in his fifties, and he has more than twenty concubines at home. It is indeed a good marriage. I will go to Mr. Liu tomorrow and tell him that you are willing to marry Yueyue to him. I want to see if Mr. Liu really doesn't like your Yueyue."
"You...don't be so shameless. I'm doing this for your own good. Mr. Liu said that if he takes another concubine, he'll give her a betrothal gift of ten taels of silver! She's not your own daughter, so why are you so protective of her? Maybe Mr. Liu will give her twenty taels of silver when he sees her looks! That would make you rich!"
Mrs. Hu wanted to continue persuading Aunt Zhang, but before Aunt Zhang could say anything, Mrs. Xu refused to listen.
"Sister Hu, you black-hearted woman! Last time, you accepted two taels of silver from Mr. Liu and betrothed Fengfeng to him, causing Fengfeng to die in childbirth at the age of eighteen. How dare you continue to harm my Wan Ning? Where does your face come from?"
As Xu spoke, she wanted to go forward and pinch Mrs. Hu's face.
Mrs. Hu refused to give in and started a fight with Mrs. Xu. Seeing this, Shen Wanning put down the basket, picked up a thick branch, and hit Mrs. Hu with it.
While beating him, he yelled, "I told you not to hit my sister-in-law, I told you not to hit my sister-in-law."
Mrs. Hu felt pained, but seeing that there were so many of them, she decided not to suffer a loss and ran away without even taking the basket.
