After traveling to ancient times, I became a superb shrew

Chapter 11 Going to the Town

As the sky was getting dark, Gujiacun woke up.

When Gu Qing woke up, Gu Nuo next door seemed to be still asleep.

Afraid of waking Gu Nuo, Gu Qing got out of bed lightly. Zhu Han was already busy in the yard, washing the dirty clothes that the family changed last night.

Yang Pei picked up a hoe and prepared to go to the field to weed.

"Yang Pei, you go to the town with me." Gu Qing turned her head and urged, "Zhu Han, just clean up at home, don't let Gu Nuo and Gu Yu go to the mountains alone."

When I went to the mountain yesterday, Gu Nuo almost got into a fight over a rabbit, she dared not let this little boy go up the mountain alone again.

Zhu Han hurriedly said: "Patriarch, don't worry, I will go with them later."

The owner said last night that he wanted to sell mushrooms in the town, so he decided to pick more mushrooms today.

"Smelly grass has medicinal value." Gu Qing said, "You four dig more smelly grass in your own fields and come back. If it's early, you can go up the mountain to find some mushrooms or something. Yang Pei and I will come back before noon."

Gu Jiang's ox cart was waiting at the head of the village, and he could take a ride for a penny.

Gu Qing paid two Wen, and sat on the cart with Yang Pei, and there were other people in the village on the ox cart.

Both of them took a shower last night, and they looked clean. Although their clothes were still tattered, they still looked a little different from others.

Gu Qing's complexion is fair, and the wound on her forehead is more conspicuous.

A young woman who usually didn't get along with her sneered and said, "Where is the lady of the Gu family going, and which young man do you like?"

Everyone in the village knew that the lady of the Gu family was a licentious woman. She married a bunch of husbands and went home, but her husband broke her head when she wanted to consummate the house. It really made people laugh out loud.

The corners of Gu Qing's lips curled up: "Sister Cuihua and your husband-in-law really have the same temperament. They always like to ask me where I am going. Does where I go have anything to do with you two?"

Gu Cuihua's eyebrows immediately stood upright: "What do you mean by that!"

Gu Qing snorted coldly: "Sister Cuihua has the energy to stare at others, so why not focus more on her own man."

A few words made Gu Cuihua almost explode.

She wished she could jump out of the car now and run back to ask if her man was having an affair with Gu Qing.

But seeing Gu Qing's calm face, it doesn't look like an affair... That's her man pestering Gu Qing, a slut!
Gu Cuihua's heart ached in anger, but she didn't want to lose face with so many people, so she said coldly, "They're all from the same village, so I just casually asked you where you were going, and treated you like a donkey's liver and lungs..."

Gu Qing closed her eyes and meditated.

The original owner was already beautiful, and her skin was fair after washing. When her parents were away, she was often pestered by men in the village.

Fortunately, the original body was a pungent one, and they all scolded away one by one, only this man Gu Cuihua was still pestering, and it was annoying to touch him every now and then.

She mentioned it here because she hoped that Gu Cuihua would keep an eye on her husband-in-law, otherwise she was afraid that she would lose control and smash Gu Cuihua's husband-in-law's forehead with a brick.

Seeing that Gu Qing closed her eyes, Gu Xiuxiu, who was sitting next to Yang Pei, was flabbergasted again.

Although Yang Pei is thin, he is tall. Because of working all year round, although he is thin, he is not thin. Coupled with that handsome face, he has long been secretly in love with Gu Xiuxiu.

The whole person rubbed against Yang Pei's body, and that little hand teased Yang Pei's fingers restlessly.

Yang Pei was so frightened that he repeatedly retreated to Gu Qing's side, and several mushrooms fell out of the basket.

Gu Qing also wondered what happened to Yang Pei, when she opened her eyes, even Gu Xiuxiu leaned on Yang Pei's body.

"What are you doing? What are you doing? Gu Xiuxiu, you are so impatient, do you want me to go to town and find you a room?"

As soon as these words came out, Gu Xiuxiu's small face flushed with shame. It's not that Gu Qing dared to say anything. She moved away immediately, but said unwillingly: "This bullock cart is only so big, Madam Gu What did you say?"

Gu Qing snorted coldly, and mocked: "The ox cart is not big compared to your huge body, but I don't know if your body has given you two fares for the cart?"

In the bullock cart, everyone burst into laughter. Gu Xiuxiu blushed and wanted to go back, but she was afraid that she would embarrass herself even more. It was originally because she was fat and lazy, but now that she is nearly seventeen years old and can't marry a husband, the family has already started to discuss it. I want to marry her off.

When the sun hung in the sky, the ox cart stopped on the main street of Youshui Town.

Gu Qing and Yang Pei jumped out of the car and walked towards the pawnshop first.

It was still early, but people were already coming and going in the town. There were stalls on the side of the road, most of which were selling snacks, and the aroma was tangy.

Walking to the door of the pawnshop, Gu Qing paused: "Yang Pei, go and buy two meat buns."

She took out a few pennies from her waist and handed them over.

Yang Pei turned around and left with a basket of mushrooms on his back.

Gu Qing stepped into the pawn shop with the mushroom on his back, and the clerk immediately greeted him.

She took out the silver hairpin from her sleeve, and the clerk inspected the condition, and stretched out a finger: "800 Wen."

Gu Qing's eyebrows jumped, she spent two hundred coins to buy it from the mall, and it was worth 800 coins? ?

Immediately, his eyes lit up, isn't this going to make a fortune?

She hurriedly bought another silver hairpin in the mall with the few hundred coins left, and silently took it out and handed it over: "Please help me look at this one again!"

The clerk saw it, and immediately called the shopkeeper over. The shopkeeper took the silver hairpin and asked the clerk to serve tea to Gu Qing.

"Little lady, if you really want to be the silver hairpin, you can only die. Look..."

Gu Qing sniffed, feeling very desolate, "Damn it, to tell you the truth, the family has fallen, and now the family is counting on this silver hairpin to buy rice for the pot!"

But whoever comes to the pawn shop is not miserable?The shopkeeper didn't have time to listen to Gu Qing's nonsense, so he immediately asked the clerk to bring two taels of silver and put it on the table:

"Little lady, two silver hairpins, two taels of broken silver, do you think you can?"

Gu Qing nodded again and again, and she changed hands several times, so there was no one who was unwilling: "All right, all right!"

The two signed and pledged, Gu Qing held the two taels of silver in his hand, and finally calmed down.

While no one was paying attention, he sold all the mushrooms in the basket to the mall, and got another [-] cash.

Walking outside, Yang Pei also came over after buying buns. He hurriedly asked, "Patriarch, how much have you been?"

The two taels in Gu Qing's hands were spread out in front of Yang Pei, and he began to talk nonsense: "Two taels of silver, the shopkeeper is very nice, and even bought the mushrooms in my basket."

Yang Pei was overjoyed: "Two taels of silver can buy a lot of food..."

Only when there is food at home will he feel at ease.

Gu Qing took out a piece or two of silver and gave it to him: "Let's change to another basket, I'll sell mushrooms, you go to the grocery store to buy some salt and some seasonings you need, and then go to the grain store to have a look."

Yang Pei stuffed the meat bun into his mouth, took the broken silver and went to work.

Gu Qing went straight to a deserted alley, sold all the mushrooms in the basket to the mall, and got another [-] Wen. Thinking that all the family members were dressed in tatters, she went into another clothing store.

She doesn't know how to make clothes. The family is full of men, and they probably don't know how to make clothes either. They can only buy ready-made clothes.

As soon as she entered the clothing store, her brows were directly frowned. A set of coarse cloth clothing for grown men actually cost five hundred cash!
She walked out of the clothing store, walked to a deserted alley, and clicked on the virtual mall. Compared with the physical store, the ready-made clothes in the mall were much cheaper.

I spent a tael of silver on coarse cloth and ready-made clothes for a family of six, and then I bought two iron pots for sixty renminbi.

One pot for cooking and one pot for cooking.
