Divorced woman with child travels through time

"Yes, yes, yes! It's mercury! Haha, I remember now!" Chen Wenfang jumped up excitedly, "We're rich! We're rich!"

Wang Erniu stepped forward and put his arm around her waist, smiling indulgently, "What, you've struck it rich? Take me with you."

“We can make a fortune by using mercury to make mirrors.” Chen Wenfang hugged his waist and bounced around. “We can make money from just one mirror for many years. We’re going to be rich!”

"Wife, wake up!" Wang Erniu pinched her nose. "That thing is poisonous and can kill people."

“That’s right, it’s poisonous, so there must be something to replace it. Let me think!” Chen Wenfang calmed down, but she didn’t give up.

Seeing her headache, Wang Erniu pulled her to sit at the table, pressed her onto his lap, and poured her a glass of water. "Don't worry, if all else fails, we can use silver. Anyway, they look very similar."

His beloved wife liked to tinker with new gadgets, and he was happy to spend some money on them; as her husband, he didn't think too much about it.

“That’s one way. But the cost is still too high. No, I have to go out. Husband~ hmm?” Chen Wenfang rubbed against him and shook his hand.

Wang Erniu's eyes darkened. Who could resist the warmth and fragrance of such a beautiful woman in his arms? "Alright, alright, I'll go with you tomorrow."

"But now!" Wang Erniu suddenly stood up and carried her in a princess carry, his voice lowered, "Wife, feed me first!"

Chen Wenfang smiled shyly, her eyes full of allure.

That night, Chen Wenfang put in a lot of effort, and Wang Erniu ate his fill.

As expected, Chen Wenfang slept in late again the next day.

At noon, Chen Wenfang stretched and went out of her room.

Caiyun brought her lunch.

"The militia went out?" Chen Wenfang took a bite of her steamed bun.

“Yes, Madam, the militia leader said he’ll be back soon and asked you to wait for him to take you out.” Caiyun skillfully placed the ginseng chicken soup on the table. “The militia leader said you must finish this.”

"Ugh~ I drink this every day!" Chen Wenfang complained for a moment, but still obediently drank it all under Caiyun's watchful gaze.

After dinner, Wang Erniu still hadn't returned. Chen Wenfang felt a bit sleepy again, so she took another nap, but Wang Erniu still hadn't come back.

"Let's not wait any longer! Caiyun, let's go out!"

"Madam, let's wait a little longer!" Caiyun looked at her with difficulty.

"No need to wait any longer, call Ah Yue! Let's go! I don't believe I'm that unlucky!" Chen Wenfang took the silver, planning to visit the blacksmith's shop later.

"Oh dear!" Caiyun stamped her foot and quickly ran to call Ayue.

A-Yue neither agreed nor disagreed, but thought it would be good to go out for a walk.

Caiyun had no choice but to go out with her master.

In Dongshan Village, Wang Erniu dismounted, and Chu Yi greeted him, pointing to a small island in the sea.

"Uncle, that's it! We've discovered the Japanese hideout!"

"Have you found out? How many people are there? Where are they getting their supplies from?" Wang Erniu took a sip of water. It was so hot today, even though it was already autumn.

"There are probably several thousand people. Someone is sending them supplies by boat from the east. I judged based on the amount of food on the boats. We'll only know the exact number once we get to the island." Lü Xiong wiped his sweat. Despite the blue sky and sandy beach, the heat was still intense.

"What island is that to the east? Could it be a Song dynasty ship?" Wang Erniu coldly stared at the deserted island, hoping that the Japanese were all there so he could capture them all.

"It's too far, I can't see clearly. I want to sneak over tonight and take a closer look." Lu Xiong's bare chest was tanned dark. Ah Xing rolled his eyes. This guy didn't trust him and arranged a bodyguard for him to take with him every day.

"Can we make it? The water's pretty deep, be careful rowing. Even though we brothers have learned to swim recently, we're probably still not very good at it." Wang Erniu walked to the water's edge, and after only a few dozen steps, the water was already waist-deep.

"I asked the fishermen here, and the tide goes out every few days, so I'm not worried about falling into the water. But there's silt, so it's not easy to cross." Chu Yi was also tanned dark. He had recently handed over the purchasing work to Lou Guo and was now focusing on intelligence gathering on the periphery.

"Then you guys find out the situation tonight, and I'll have someone analyze it to see what methods we can use and when would be the best time to make a move." Wang Erniu glanced back at the quiet island, hoping this time he could get a good opportunity.

"Order!"

Wang Erniu rode his horse and spent half an hour returning home. Upon learning that his wife had gone out, he was worried and quickly took a bath before going to town.

Upon arriving at the blacksmith's shop, he saw Chen Wenfang chatting happily with Mrs. Zheng, the blacksmith's wife, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"This jar is really well made! Very nice." Chen Wenfang touched it, thinking that her husband would take it with him on his future journeys so that he could have some clean meat.

"Madam, your design is truly excellent! You are so skillful and clever!" Madam Zheng praised her sincerely.

"Not at all, you did a good job. We'll send it to your residence later so you can collect the money directly." Chen Wenfang was thinking about how to start the conversation.

"What's good?" Wang Erniu sat down next to him.

"This, put the meat inside and seal it tightly, boil it, and it won't spoil for half a year. You can take it with you when you go on a long trip, isn't that convenient?" Chen Wenfang presented the item to him like a treasure.

Wang Erniu looked at the jar, then at his wife who was waiting to be praised, and felt touched. He smiled and said, "Thank you, my wife. You are so good to me."

Madam Zheng covered her mouth and laughed.

A-Yue knew this as soon as Wang Erniu came in, and continued to look around the blacksmith's shop as if nothing had happened.

Caiyun appeared to be taking care of Chen Wenfang, but in reality, she was constantly observing her surroundings vigilantly. She only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Wang Erniu and the others arrive.

"Madam Zheng, you know so much. I'd like to ask, is there anyone around here who knows how to make transparent glass?"

“Madam, you’ll have to go to Quanzhou to ask. We’re a small place in Hui’an, so I’m afraid no one here knows these things,” Madam Zheng explained truthfully.

"Oh...Is that so?" Chen Wenfang was greatly disappointed; it seemed that this money-making plan was probably not going to work.

“If you really want it, my lady, I’ll have someone find you a few craftsmen. We have plenty of money. The Bureau of Construction has taken a lot of money from the Shipyard Bureau for this kind of thing. It’s been common for us before, so it shouldn’t be difficult,” Wang Erniu said, trying to comfort her since he couldn’t bear to see her upset.

"Alright then, that's the only way." Chen Wenfang and the others got up to say goodbye.

"Let's go to the store and have a look!" Seeing her lack of interest, Wang Erniu took her hand and led her to Chen's.

"Oh." Chen Wenfang didn't want to spoil his fun, so she let him pull her to Chen's Restaurant.

As soon as I entered, a cacophony of shouts erupted.

"The lady is here!"

"What brings you here today, Madam Chen?"

"Madam is here. What would you like to eat? I'll bring it to you."

"Madam, are you thirsty? We've just received some fresh coconuts. Would you like to try some?"

A group of female workers surrounded her, their enthusiasm overwhelming Chen Wenfang.

"
