After traveling to ancient times, I became a superb shrew

Chapter 2

Gu Qing was stunned.

When she was wondering, a virtual translucent panel appeared in front of her eyes.

The main picture on the panel is the rice field in front of her. A wild vegetable on the ridge of the field is marked in red, indicating that it is Zheergen.

[Wild Folded Ear Root, 15 Wen per catty. 】

Gu Qing pulled out the two folded ears at her feet, and the mechanical sound sounded in her mind again.

【Ding!Two taels of wild folded ear root, worth 3 Wen, is it for sale? 】

【Yes! 】

At this moment, the folded ears in her hand disappeared, replaced by three copper coins.

Gu Qing's eyes were full of disbelief.

At this time, the vain panel changed, and a mall similar to a certain treasure appeared.

The price units of these commodities are copper coins. Two copper coins can buy a meat bun or a bottle of mineral water.

She understood that this is a trading mall connected to another time and space.

After she clicked to buy, the two coins in her hand disappeared and turned into a meat bun.

Gu Qing was really hungry, she devoured the steamed stuffed bun, there was food in her stomach, and strength in her body.

She decided to dig up some more wild vegetables for money. There were too many things she wanted to buy.

Zheergen likes water and shade, and usually grows on both sides of the field ridge, but it has a fishy smell, and it is also called Houttuynia cordata in many places. It has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxification, and compound Houttuynia cordata granules are sold in modern pharmacies.

There are not many Houttuynia cordata on the field ridges this season, and it was hard to find a cluster.When Gu Qing was picking her ears on the ridge with her butt pouted, a voice suddenly exploded in her ears.

"Which short-lived person steals rice from my mother's family!"

The wind blows the rice and falls, revealing a figure.

"Hey, it's the lady of the Gu family!"

Mrs. Zhou gritted her teeth. The two were neighbors, and they fought every day. Even Mr. Moli, whom she had a crush on, was forcibly snatched away by Gu Qing.

She kept holding her breath, and couldn't scold Mrs. Gu, and today she finally caught her nemesis' pigtail.

For a while, new hatred and old hatred.

"Everyone, come and see, Mrs. Gu stole rice from our Zhou family!"

With such a yell, many people looked over.

The rice field here belongs to the Zhou family, and Gu Qing is squatting on the ridge of the Zhou family's rice field.

This morning Gu Qing's head was bleeding, but the villagers laughed for a long time, and now everyone started talking again.

"Hey, are you going to steal Zhou's food and go home to coax your husband to consummate the house?"

"Miss Gu is getting more and more generous. She does all kinds of tricks, what else can't she do?"

"Maybe she will sell her husband in the future, anyway, she has many husbands..."

Gu Qing's face turned dark when he heard this.

This field is right in front of her house. She thought it was her own field. Who would have thought it belonged to the Zhou family?
She patted the grass clippings on her body, and slowly stood up straight.

She threw out a few folded ears in her hand, and said in a cold voice, "Why, you don't even know rice?"

The people in the village saw clearly that it was stinky grass.

This stuff has the smell of dead fish and rotten shrimps, and I wouldn't eat it if I fed it to chickens.

In modern times, folded ear roots are very popular, such as hot pot, cold salad, tea making, and even seasoning, but in this era, folded ear roots are not popular.

Mrs. Zhou cursed with her waist in her hands: "Don't fool me by just pulling two stinky weeds. I think you are deliberately finding excuses to steal my rice!"

Gu Qing sighed, and said quietly: "Isn't this because there is no food at home? In order to feed the family, I can only dig some of this to go back for extra meals... Everyone must look down on this stinky grass, the folks in this country Why not lend some food to our family..."

She had a wound on her head, and with this expression, she looked a little pitiful.

Everyone's eyeballs were about to fall out, the lady of the Zhou family, who had always been plundering, showed weakness and wanted to borrow money!

These days, food cannot be borrowed for anything, and the onlookers dispersed in an instant.

The lady of the Zhou family took a mouthful of saliva, and wanted to ask her to borrow food, go dreaming!
But in the end, because she was afraid of being entangled, Aunt Zhou turned around and went into the ground to pull weeds.

Gu Qing picked up the folded ear root that he had dug on the ground, took two steps, and walked to his rice field.

She squatted on the ridge of the field digging vegetables, under the scorching sun, beads of sweat rolled down her forehead, and the back of her clothes were soaked.

She didn't know how long she had been digging, but she didn't stop until the mall indicated that it was two catties.

She was dizzy as she stood up.

She remembered that the injury on her head hadn't been healed yet, and she hadn't taken any anti-inflammatory drugs. If it got infected, it would be a fatal thing in ancient times.

Two catties of folded ear roots sold for 30 Wen, and I spent 20 Wen to buy disinfectant and anti-inflammatory drugs in the mall.

There are still 10 coins left in the hard-earned money, Gu Qing dare not spend it recklessly.

She rubbed her sore waist and walked home.

As soon as she walked to the door of the house, she heard lively talking from inside the house.

"Second sister, the wild vegetables are so delicious!"

"My stomach is finally full!"

She walked into the yard and saw two people sitting at the table in the room, Gu Nuo and Gu Yu.

Gu Nuo has just turned ten years old this year. He is small and malnourished at first sight. At this moment, he is holding the broken bowl, licking the bowl with his little tongue, and rolled a little bit of paste into his stomach.

Gu Qing didn't expect that such a little bit of wild vegetables could be eaten by two people, and those who could still eat looked satisfied.

She really realized that this family is really too poor, even if the bastard of the original owner is dead, there is no way the original owner would starve to death, and she still goes out to drink flower wine every day.

Seeing her return, the siblings and five husbands stood up in unison.

Gu Yu Gu Nuo: "Sister, you are back."

The youngest husband, Mo Li: "Patriarch, I brought back two buckets of water."

Yang Pei, the tallest husband: "Patriarch, I chopped firewood."

Husband Zhu Han with a disheveled face: "Patriarch, I dug up some wild vegetables."

There are also Dong Rong and Yu An who are standing but keep bowing their heads without saying a word.

These two people were the culprits who smashed her head last night.

Gu Qing pursed her lips tightly.

Even the oldest husband is only 19 years old. He probably just went to college in modern times, and he is still a child doted on by his parents.

But in this day and age, Gu Nuo, who is only ten years old, has already taken care of some of the household chores.

【Ding!Discover wild purslane! 】

Gu Qing saw that what Zhu Han dug back was purslane, and the mall reminded him that it was 10 Wen a catty.

She bent down and picked up a basket of purslane, and walked to the back room.

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay. In the past, when they came back from work, the Patriarch would accuse them of various lessons. Especially last night, the Patriarch was beaten by several husbands. Shouldn’t they be punished severely? What do you mean?
Gu Qing sold the purslane, bought four catties of rice at the mall for 30 Wen, and had [-] Wen left in his hand.

She was very fortunate that Gu's village was at the junction of the north and the south, and the north ate more pasta and corn, while the south ate more rice.

She is from the south and likes white rice best.

She took out more than two catties and threw it on the table in the main room.

"This is...white rice!"

"How come white rice!"

After the autumn harvest, the villagers will carry the rice to the town and exchange it for yellow rice or buckwheat. One catty of rice can be exchanged for two or three catties of yellow rice... enough food is enough for the whole family to have enough food to survive until the next autumn harvest.
