Chapter 176 Bringing Zhao Sanniang home



Chapter 176 Bringing Zhao Sanniang home

Ji Wenhe supported several pieces and said with a wry smile: "Aunt Niu, if we make money, why don't we buy farmland instead of wasteland?"

"It takes one or two years for wasteland to be used for growing crops. If you have money, you might as well buy some land and grow crops that you can sell."

"The money I have saved is from the wild boars that Brother Shen hunted in the mountains last time. I've spent all my money on this and that."

"It's so hard to spend money. It's easy to spend money, but hard to make money. I'm almost dying of worry because I have no money to spend."

Niu Guilan stood nearby with her arms folded and nodded in agreement.

"Who said it wasn't true? I don't even dare to go to town. If I go there, I'll have to spend a lot of money. There's nothing missing at home, so I have to buy everything."

"But your family's peddler business is better than ours looking for work in town."

She also thought about doing peddler business, but she didn't know anyone there, and if she asked them, they wouldn't tell the truth.

Her husband made her stop thinking that just because others made money, she would want to follow suit.

If it falls on my hands, I won’t even have a place to cry.

"Okay, you guys are busy, Auntie is going back."

"Hey, Aunt Niu, take care."

Shen Rongshan buried the soil and signaled her that she could let go. He stomped the soil tightly with his feet and then buried another one.

The shed was built in one day.

In the evening the twins came back and saw the shed that had been erected.

"Brother, we don't have to go to the surrounding villages anymore, it saves a lot of trouble."

"Yes." Shen Wenshan pinched his shoulder, "I will rest at home tomorrow. My shoulder hurts."

"My shoulder hurts, too."

Ji Wenhe made a long, thick strip of cloth and wrapped it around the shoulder pole. It would be more comfortable to put it on the shoulders.

But after a long time, my shoulders will still hurt.

Walking into the yard, Shen Yuanshan shouted, "Sister-in-law, brother, we are back."

"You're back just in time. Wash your hands and have dinner."

Ji Wenhe came out from behind the stove and scooped a basin of water and handed it to them.

"Your eldest brother went to check the traps, he should be back by now."

Shen Wenshan washed his hands, sat on a small stool, and spoke weakly: "Sister-in-law, I will rest at home for a day tomorrow. My shoulders hurt."

"Okay, you all take a rest at home for a day. The weather is too hot. Your eldest brother said he will go tomorrow."

Shen Yuanshan thought about it and decided to stay at home tomorrow as well.

After the meal was served, Shen Rongshan came back with a plump pheasant in his hand: "You can cook it at home tomorrow."

Ji Wenhe took a look and said: "Pick some long beans tomorrow morning and cook them with the beans."

Pheasant tastes better than domestic chicken, and it tastes good with anything.

Seeing them constantly pinching his shoulders, he said distressedly, "Rest at home for a few more days. If it hurts, go to Zhaojia Village and ask a doctor to take a look."

Shen Wenshan shook his head: "It hurts, but you don't need to see a doctor. Just rest for two days and it will be fine."

"I'll give you a shoulder massage tonight." Shen Rongshan thought for a moment and said, "Rest at home for a few days. I'll go out and sell goods."

"I went to see a carpenter today to make a wheelbarrow. It will be ready by the end of the month."

"I've thought about it. When I go out to sell goods in the future, you two can take turns going out with me."

"Your sister-in-law is too busy at home, so leave someone at home to help."

"Yes, the shop needs someone to watch over it. The three of you can take turns."

Ji Wenhe originally wanted to stay at home alone, but he had to go out to herd the geese, and the shop had to be left alone.

She also didn't want to keep asking others to help take care of her, as it would be hard to repay the favor.

The two twins nodded in agreement. Although they had a lot of fun during this period, they were also very tired.

After dinner, the three of them went to the river to take a bath as usual.

Shen Wenshan finished washing first and came out to wait outside.

"Brother, today an aunt asked me if I was married or not. I said no, and she wanted to find me a girl, but I refused."

He has no interest in it now, and his family has no house, so it won't work even if they meet.

"I have one too." Shen Yuanshan replied, "Two aunts wanted to find a wife for me. I said my family has no house and lives in a cave with four of us."

When they heard that he lived in the same house with his brother, they stopped asking him to find a girl.

Shen Rongshan came out after getting dressed, and said in a gentle tone: "Don't worry. If I can't afford the homestead this year, I will definitely buy it next year."

"We are not in a hurry." Shen Wenshan looked back at him, "We have no plans to start a family right now, let's wait two years before we decide."

If you have money, you don't have to worry about not being able to find a wife.

"Well, when you want to look at marriage, tell me."

"Got it, big brother." The two responded.

After returning home, Shen Rongshan went to the inner room first and whispered, "Wen He, are you asleep?"

Ji Wenhe replied: "I'm just about to go to bed."

She has developed the habit of going to bed early.

Although I go to bed early, I still wake up late in the morning.

"Okay, then go to sleep, I'll go to their room."

She hummed softly, turned over to face inwards, and fell asleep soon after.

Shen Rongshan rubbed the shoulders of the two men and went back to sleep very late.

The next day.

He got up early and prepared a meal, and after eating, he carried the goods down the mountain.

It was cool in the morning, with a refreshing breeze.

When Ji Wenhe got up, the twins were still asleep.

She didn't wake them up, but waited for them to wake up naturally.

Carrying a basket and a sickle and taking a wooden stick, he went down the mountain to release the geese.

When I reached the steps, I saw several people standing around Shen Ping's house.

He walked over with confusion and stopped beside He Yuxiang's house. Without getting closer, he pricked up his ears to listen to what they were talking about.

"Hey, Wen He, are you going out to dig wild vegetables?"

"Yes, Aunt He, I'm herding geese and looking for wild vegetables on the way." Ji Wenhe looked at Shen Ping's family, "Aunt He, what's going on?"

Wu Caifeng, Niu Guilan, Xie Fenglian, and Huang Guihua, the four of them gathered together.

"Oh, what else can we do? Just watch the fun."

Only then did she remember that Shen Ping was going to bring Zhao Sanniang back today.

"Aunt He, did Uncle Ping bring the person back?"

"He went to bring her back early in the morning. He was so happy and was busy serving her dinner."

Ji Wenhe was a little suspicious. This was unlike Shen Ping as usual.

It should be the other way around.

"Didn't Uncle Ping say that women should do all the housework? Why has it changed?"

He Yuxiang smiled and said, "It's different now that I'm married. What if I don't treat her well and she runs away?"

If this is true, then Zhao Sanniang will not be sad for the rest of her life.

"Aunt He, I'm leaving."

"Hey, go ahead. I'll go take a look at their house."

Now that there is nothing to do at home, I have a lot of free time and I like to wander around.

Shen Ping's family.

The two sat at the small kitchen table, facing each other.

He pushed the vegetable cake in front of her: "Eat it quickly, this is your home from now on, let's live a good life."

"You take care of the family affairs. I'm going to find a job in town. If you treat this family well, I will treat you well too."

That day, Yang Cuicui came and talked to him a lot. He also realized that if he didn't change his mouth, he would really be single.
