Chapter 49: Just satisfy her

May 23, 2023Ai Hrist

After fighting for more than a dozen rounds, Shi Qingluo had her hands cut back by Xiao Hanzheng.

He leaned forward, leaned into Shi Qingluo’s ear, and said, “Miss, you lost.”

Just now, the more he fought, the more frightened he was. He didn’t expect that his little wife was so good at it.

Her moves were not gorgeous, but it was on point. As if she trained in the military camp.

Shi Qingluo’s body was a little weak, and she was already out of breath from exhaustion.

“I didn’t see Old Xiao, that your force value is so high!”

Right now, she will not be able to keep up with the moves due to her weak body, but she was sure that even in her heyday in her previous life, she can’t beat her husband.

She looked sideways at him with sparkling eyes and asked, “Can you do light work, like flying over walls?”

Xiao Hanzheng laughed: “Even without such exaggerated light skills, it would be easy to climb over walls, but it is impossible to fly over walls.”

“Of course, if you use tools.”

Shi Qingluo immediately stepped forward, took out a handkerchief, and graciously wiped off Xiao Hanzheng’s sweat.

“Brother Zheng, then you can teach me Qinggong, I want to learn too.”

Although she can’t jump over the eaves and walk over the wall, it won’t be bad to cross over the wall easily.

Xiao Hanzheng watched her wipe his face with a handkerchief, and couldn’t laugh or cry, “Okay, I’ll teach you.”

When his little wife wants to ask him to do something, she will especially pretend to be obedient and courteous.

His name will also change from Old Xiao to Brother Zheng.

“Hey, Brother Zheng, you are so kind, I like you the most!” Shi Qinglou smiled crookedly with flat eyebrows.

If it wasn’t for the wrong place, she would have wanted to give him a big hug.

Hearing Shi Qingluo’s words, the corners of Xiao Hanzheng’s lips rose. It turns out that his little wife likes him so much, it was great!

He said: “I will practice martial arts with you in the morning, and I will teach you lightness kung fu at the same time.”

If he wanted to protect his relatives and wife, he should quickly reach the same level of martial arts from his previous life.

Shi Qingluo nodded: “This is a good idea.”

In the early morning of the next day, Shi Qingluo and Xiao Hanzheng got up to help make tofu.

After preparing the tofu, Mrs. Kong asked the two of them to go back to their room to rest, and she came to watch over them.

Because there were only two women who make tofu, there will be no gossip.

Shi Qingluo and Xiao Hanzheng were also relieved, they can just train Mother Xiao.

The two of them were going to go up the mountain during the day, so they went to rest.

When the two got up, the tofu was almost sold out.

Mrs. Kong and Xiao Baili were working hard to learn and change.

After eating the breakfast prepared by Xiao Baili, Shi Qingluo, and Xiao Hanzheng went up the mountain with a basket on their backs.

What they went to was not the mountain behind the courtyard of their residence, but the largest and most primitive mountain between the two villages.

Beasts will appear on the mountain, so the villagers dare not go deep.

Shi Qingluo and Xiao Hanzheng’s force value was not low, and they were not afraid of encountering wild beasts, so they walked directly to the depths.

Shi Qingluo discovered that Xiao Hanzheng was very familiar with this mountain: “Have you been here before?”

Xiao Hanzheng held her hand: “I’ve been here many times, and I even found century-old ginseng in the mountains.”

In his previous life, his mother and younger siblings died, and the family owed money, so he had to continue living.

Therefore, he was forced to go to the mountains to get food, or catch hares and pheasants, and dig some herbs to sell.

One time, he was chased by wild boars and lost his way, and accidentally found a century-old ginseng tree.

After taking it out and selling it, he was able to make money and left Xiaxi Village to study medicine and martial arts.

Shi Qingluo shook Xiao Hanzheng’s hand tightly. Her former little husband must have suffered a lot, and had many heartaches!

She asked: “Do you remember where the ginseng is?”

Xiao Hanzheng replied: “I still have an impression, but wolves and wild boars are infesting there. If our current physical strength encounters them, it will be troublesome.”

“When the opportunity is ripe, let’s look for it again.”

At least having the ability to protect themselves was required.

Shi Qingluo was not an impulsive person: “Well, it’s a pity to sell the century-old ginseng. We should keep it for ourselves when we find it in the future.”

Xiao Hanzheng squeezed her hand, “Okay!”

The two walked around for a while, then Shi Qingluo stood under a tall tree.

“Hey, there are sumac trees here.”

Xiao Hanzheng didn’t understand these things, “What is a sumac tree for?”

“The phloem of the trunk is cut from the raw lacquer, the seeds can be used to extract oil, and the dried lacquer has medicinal value, and has the effects of stimulating menstrual flow, repelling insects and antitussive.”

“The seed oil can also be used to make ink and soap, and the peel can be used as wax for candles and wax paper. The leaves can be used to extract tannins. The leaves and roots can be used as soil pesticides.

“Its whole body is a treasure.”

“This large area is full of sumac trees, and a lot of lacquer can be cut out.”

The paint can be used in architectural painting and furniture.

Xiao Hanzheng did not expect that the lacquer sold outside actually came from this kind of tree.

“The price of paint is not low, we can find someone to cut this piece of paint.”

“The seeds and the others can also be used.”

Shi Qingluo nodded, “Indeed, it would be too laborious and inefficient for us to cut it ourselves.”

“After earning some money, we can open another workshop for lacquer. Not only can we sell lacquer, but we can also sell soap, candles and wax paper, etc.”

Xiao Hanzheng supported her: “Alright.”

Shi Qingluo said again: “But what I want most is to make money first, then rebuild a yard, and improve the hut and bathing place.”

She really can’t stand going to the toilet and bathing in ancient times.

If she can build a new house, she will have to build a separate toilet and bathroom.

Then make a flush toilet and a bathroom where you can stand and take a bath.

Xiao Hanzheng found that his little wife had a deep resentment in this regard.

But since his little wife thought so, then just satisfy her.

So he said: “Then build a house first, then buy a mountain for breeding and open a painting workshop.”

“I’ll go to the county seat tomorrow to see if I can sell the manuscript at a higher price. If I can, I’ll hurry up and write more.”

It was not difficult for him to make money.

He then added: “Actually, I can be a doctor. I will go out next month and treat a person. The salary should not be low.”

After collecting the money altogether, the amount of money should be able to satisfy his little wife’s idea of building a house within two months.

Although Shi Qingluo can make money and build a house by herself, she was very happy to hear that her husband was responsible and indulged her.

Men in this era seldom let their wives do things at will, and they are all very machismo. After all, it was an era where men were superior to women.

So her vision was excellent, and she fell in love with her husband at first sight.

She leaned over and kissed Xiao Hanzheng’s cheek: “Brother Zheng, you performed very well, I will give you a reward.”

When warm lips fell on his face, Xiao Hanzheng was taken aback, he didn’t expect his little wife to kiss him.

He lowered his head and saw his little wife with stars in her eyes and a smile as bright as a little sun.

His heartbeat accelerated a lot, and the tips of my ears instantly turned red.

His little wife was not shy.

But this feeling seems to be pretty good.

After Shi Qingluo kissed Xiao Hanzheng, the tips of her ears were also red.

Oh, it was her first time kissing a man.

Shi Qinglou took Xiao Hanzheng to mark the lacquer forest, and she and he both deliberately memorized the location, so that they could come and cut the lacquer later.

After walking for a while, Shi Qingluo looked at the plants in front of her, and her eyes lit up again.

“There is still a piece of wild beet in front. Today’s harvest is fantastic.”

Xiao Hanzheng asked: “What can this wild beet do?”

Shi Qinglou replied with a smile: “Make sugar .”
