In the years of famine, in troubled times, the koi sweet wife is omnipotent

"This is a toy car. When you make it, the kids will love it."

Xia Wanwan had a smile on her face, and her pair of beautiful ink-black eyes were emitting flickering light in the light of the kerosene lamp.

"Okay, I'll do it now."

Gu Huaijin took advantage of the fact that it was still early and the moonlight was bright, so he took the blueprint and started working on it without stopping.

In this way, the family lived happily together in the courtyard, with the laughter of children having fun, the warm company of their partners, the care of their elders, and a quiet, peaceful and happy atmosphere.

At this moment, Xia Wanwan suddenly felt like she had found home.

This feeling doesn't feel like China's home, but a family that belongs to her alone.

The atmosphere of the two families feels completely different.

"This isn't right. This is how it should be done."

Xia Wanwan saw that Gu Huaijin had done something wrong, so she pointed it out.

Because Gu Huaijin knew nothing about modern things, he was very slow in making the toy cars, but with Xia Wanwan's guidance and participation, the two toy cars were quickly made.

"It's incredible. The kids will love it when they wake up tomorrow."

Gu Huaijin looked at the finished toy car, which he could sit on and paddle by itself, and found it incredible.

In their world, there were only horse-drawn carriages, and carriages of this shape were completely unheard of.

"I'll give this to Da Zhuang tomorrow. It's getting late, let's go get some rest!"

Xia Wanwan stretched out her hand and laughed, then looked at the sky and realized that it was almost twelve o'clock in the evening.

Thinking of the mission issued by the system, she used her mind to sense it, "System! Is there a time limit for the mission to subdue the snake?"

If not, she will leave early tomorrow morning.

If so, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight.

"If you complete it within three days, there will be a reward."

The system's reply instantly put her at ease.

Otherwise, if she sneaked into the mountains tonight, it would be difficult for her to deal with Gu Huaijin given his vigilance.

Gu Huaijin also knew that it was no longer suitable to go patrolling in the mountains tonight.

While Xia Wanwan was asleep, he got up and went out, leaping onto the roof. Looking at his hidden subordinates, he ordered, "Send two people to the mountains to investigate the situation... Once you find out what's going on, report to me tomorrow at the right time."

After he made his purpose clear, he planned to return to the bed again.

The subordinate who had been following and protecting Xia Wanwan during the day suddenly reported, "Master! Madam gives me a very different feeling this time."

"Tell me what's going on."

Gu Huaijin stood on the eaves with his hands behind his back, looking like a king with an air of dominance and majesty.

"I've discovered that Madam is not as simple as I thought. She noticed me several times today. If it weren't for my strong Qinggong skills, I would have been discovered by Madam long ago."

His subordinate, Chen Xin, responded respectfully, expressing his doubts. "Do you think the lady has been replaced? Someone has deliberately disguised themselves as her in an attempt to control your family?"

Gu Huaijin blinked his deep eyes and said in a gentle voice, "It's okay. It's good that Madam is vigilant. As for whether someone deliberately disguised themselves as her, it's hard to say now. But I have a strong intuition that she is my Madam. As for why her temperament suddenly changed, it might be just as she said. And just in case, I have asked Zhou Yi to investigate."

"What did you say, ma'am?"

When Chen Xin heard this, he didn't quite understand the question and asked subconsciously.

Gu Huaijin waved his hand, not wanting to let too many people know the reason for Xia Wanwan's change, so he asked, "How are the preparations for the things I asked you to get going? Time is running out, so I hope you can hurry up. After tomorrow, we have to return to the barracks."

Chen Xin replied again: "My Lord, the matter is almost done. After receiving the goods tomorrow afternoon, we can set off."

"Alright, you don't have to keep watch tonight. You've been working hard lately. Take the brothers out for a good meal and meet up at the designated location the day after tomorrow morning."

After saying that, Gu Huaijin lightly tapped his toes and returned to the ground silently.

"Thank you, Lord."

Chen Xin bowed with great respect, then disappeared into the night.

The next day.

Xia Wanwan opened her sleepy eyes hazily, and saw the sleeping faces of her three children. A happy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she rested her head on her arms and looked at them lovingly for a while.

After getting up, she found that Gu Huaijin had already gotten up. When she got dressed and went to the yard to exercise, she just saw him carrying a big tree home.

"Such a big tree, and you carried it back like this?"

Even Xia Wanwan, the special forces commander, was shocked when she saw this scene and opened her mouth wide.

This tree is thicker than a person. Even if you remove the head and tail, it must weigh at least several hundred pounds, right?

"Yes, if we don't carry it back, how can we make a wardrobe?"

Gu Huaijin thought that there was no wardrobe at home, and the clothes were either hung on a rope on the wall or piled on the ground, which could easily be damaged by rats, so he thought about making another one.

"The house really needs a wardrobe."

Xia Wanwan nodded in agreement.

Even if he doesn't do it, she will make a wardrobe when he is gone and she has free time.

Otherwise, clothes will be piled up in a mess and the house will always look messy.

"Don't sell the wardrobe this time."

Gu Huaijin lowered his eyes and looked at her, deliberately reminding her.

Xia Wanwan: “…”

How could she forget such a thing?

Every time Gu Huaijin came back, she would make some furniture, but after everyone left, she would sell them all.

Things like wardrobes are more valuable, so she would not let them go.

"Haha ~ No, I promise."

Xia Wanwan smiled awkwardly, swung her hands, walked aside, and started exercising.

But he would glance at Gu Huaijin from time to time.

Looking at how seriously he was working, and his unblemished face was incredibly handsome, she even suspected that Gu Huaijin was the son of an estranged mother.

After all, no matter how you look at it, the mother-in-law and mother-in-law are ordinary people. Although Gu Baozhu looks good, she is just pretty at best.

But it's also possible that he looks like his dead father.

It is said that Gu Huaijin's father died accidentally after falling off a cliff when Gu Baozhu was three years old, and the scar on Gu Huaijin's face was also left at that time.

As for Brother Gu Huaijin, she had never seen him. It was said that he went to the county town to become a son-in-law and there had been no news of him since then.

When I return to modern times, I will bring back some scar removal medicine. When the scars are removed, I will definitely be a handsome and extraordinary man.

After exercising for a while, Xia Wanwan went to wake up the children. At this time, Tang Guifang had already prepared breakfast.

After finishing her meal, she picked up the bamboo basket and said to Gu Huaijin, "I'm going to the mountains to pick some mushrooms and make soup for you at noon."

"Mushrooms?" Gu Huaijin asked with a puzzled look on his face, "What are mushrooms?"

After being stunned for a moment, Xia Wanwan realized that no one in this dynasty ate mushrooms because they could not tell which ones were poisonous and which ones were not.

It is said that a family in the next village was extremely hungry and ventured into the mountains to pick mushrooms to eat. As a result, the five members of the family all lay down neatly.

Finally it became a pile of dirt.

Since then, no one dared to go up the mountain to step on mushrooms and eat them. Even when passing by, some people couldn't help but step on them.

"It's a kind of mushroom that grows in the ground. You know mushrooms, right?"

"Mushroom" is a modern name, so it's normal that he doesn't know it.

"You can't eat that. It will kill you."

When Gu Huaijin heard her say that she wanted to pick mushrooms to eat, he was so scared that the hairs on his body stood up and he quickly stopped her.
