Spatial Supermarket: Period Transmigration and Marriage with a Strong Guy

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Song Xi was well-educated, gentle, polite, and approachable, unlike the cultured people in the city who looked down on rural people. It immediately made the young people who saw her for the first time heave a sigh of relief and feel at ease.

“I’m sorry to have caused you trouble today and delayed you from going to work to earn work points.” Looking at the strange scene of a few male comrades sitting on a rock and peeling off the skin of sweet potato stems, Song Xi turned around and went to the central room. She took a few cups made of bamboo and made cups of white sugar water for everyone to thank them for their help today. If not for the fact that teamwork makes the dream work, the kitchen of Zhou Yi’s house might have really been destroyed.

Zhou Ping, Sheng Jiahe, and Mo Jiaxiang put down the sweet potato stems in their hands and took the white sugar water from Song Xi with both hands. They thought that it was just well water and did not know that it was white sugar water. They drank it in one gulp and it was sweet.

Sheng Jiahe hurriedly said, “Sister-in-law… Oh no, Song Xi, you’re too polite. It’s not the time to be busy yet. It’s fine to rest for a while. We’ll just treat it as saving energy for the farm work later.”

Hearing Sheng Jiahe’s words, Song Xi was a little surprised. She did not expect this person to be so eloquent. If this person had the chance to study, he would probably be quite outstanding. However, not everyone had the chance to study in this era.

Song Xi decided to observe Zhou Yi’s brothers again. If it was really possible, she did not mind pulling them into her ‘team’. After all, it was impossible to rely on one person to start a business.

When forming a team, you had to choose people slowly. She might as well start observing now. She could reserve suitable people in advance.

Zhou Yi saw that his wife’s eyes seemed to be fixed on Sheng Jiahe and felt a sense of danger. He reached out and held Song Xi’s hand. “Everyone, come over for dinner tonight. I’ll go up the mountain in the afternoon to see if I can pick some mushrooms or find something else. Rest at home obediently and don’t enter the kitchen again, understand?”

“It’s only right to treat everyone to a meal.” Song Xi nodded in agreement. They had helped them so much, so they should treat everyone to a meal. Only by exchanging favors could their relationship last.

However, looking at everyone’s teasing gazes, Song Xi was a little embarrassed. Zhou Yi said that as if she didn’t know how to cook. Wasn’t he deliberately making others laugh at her?

She knew how to cook, but modern kitchen utensils were all automated. She was just not familiar with the earthen stove yet. When she was familiar with it, the food she made would definitely be especially delicious.

However, in the twenty-odd years of her life in the modern era, she rarely cooked personally. She either went out with her friends to explore delicacies or ate employee meals with the supermarket employees. The employee meals were made by the professional chef she hired. There was Chinese food, Western food, and all kinds of fruits and pastries.

At the thought of this, Song Xi’s eyes suddenly lit up. She had entered the supermarket a few times, but she had never been to the warehouse or the staff canteen. Perhaps there was a pleasant surprise inside!

Song Xi decided that when Zhou Yi went up the mountain in the afternoon, she would go to the warehouse and the staff canteen to check. She did not expect there to be much inside. Even a little would be enough for her to last for a while.

Zhou Yi looked at his little wife’s clear eyes that suddenly lit up. He did not know what she thought of, but it made his breathing stagnate slightly. His hand subconsciously tightened around hers. As long as he faced her, his heart would unconsciously beat faster.

Zhou Yi’s three friends drank tea and finished peeling the skin of the sweet potato stems. They broke the crisp sweet potato stems into small pieces and left Zhou Yi’s house. This was because they were going home for lunch. These days, everyone was short of food, so no one was ignorant enough to stay at someone else’s house to eat. Of course, other than special invitations, even if they were invited, they had to bring something. They could not eat for free.

Zhou Yi asked them to come over for dinner tonight on their own and not make him go catch them.

It was getting late, and it was too late to make a complicated lunch. Zhou Yi cooked porridge and steamed egg. Actually, Song Xi could eat dry rice and ordinary food. However, Zhou Yi was afraid that she couldn’t properly digest it, so she mainly ate liquid food.

During the meal, Zhou Yi still asked the question in his heart, “Wife, why did you enter the kitchen today? Is there not enough breakfast left behind?”

Song Xi almost spat out the egg in her mouth. She quickly ate it and said in embarrassment, “I haven’t washed my hair for a long time. The smell is strong and my scalp itches. I’m afraid of lice, so I wanted to boil some water and wash my hair. I just didn’t expect the firewood to fall out and ignite those leaves…”

It was summer now. She would feel terrible if she did not wash her hair for a day. Moreover, she had not washed her hair for many days because of the back of her head. Zhou Yi was probably used to smelling it and could not smell the unpleasant smell.

But she really couldn’t accept herself like this. Besides, the wound was already scabbed over. It should be fine if she was careful when she washed her hair, right?

“I’m sorry, Brother Yi. I was too careless and caused you such a loss.” No matter what era it was, houses were the foundation of living. She had almost burned down Zhou Yi’s house. She decided to make up for the damage she had caused him in other ways in the future.

“Wife, leave anything you want to do to me in the future, understand? If you continue to act on your own accord, I’ll be angry.” He was her husband, but she refused to let him do anything. This meant that she did not treat him as her husband. “You’re my wife and I’m your husband. We’re family. I’m willing to do anything for you. Don’t treat me as an outsider in the future, okay?”

Song Xi was a little embarrassed. She did not expect Zhou Yi to be so good at imagining things. She only wanted to boil water and wash her hair. She did not have any other intentions. Under Zhou Yi’s undeniable gaze, Song Xi swallowed her saliva and nodded gently. “I understand. I’ll tell Brother Yi everything in the future.”

After getting the answer he wanted, Zhou Yi’s expression softened. She could dislike him, but she could not treat him as an outsider. Because whether she liked him or not, they were still husband and wife. This was a fact that no one could change.

“Then… Brother Yi, can you help me pick some raspberries when you go up the mountain in the afternoon? The more the better.” She knew that raspberries could be made into wine. Although she had never done it in practice, she had books on this in the supermarket. She could follow the steps written in the books and do it step by step.

Since she wanted to live a decent life in this poor era, she definitely had to have the ability to settle down. After all, there were only so many things in the supermarket. They definitely could not support her for the rest of her life.

So she had to start working hard.

Besides, with her intelligence, could such a small matter trouble her? Definitely not.
