Chapter 9: Wen Ge Er
Qiao Yu looked at Gu Feng. He really didn't know that this man actually customized the furniture. Although they had only been together for two days, he found that this man was really generous.
And are hunters so rich?
It seems that Gu Feng is spending money every day. Maybe he should worry about the financial problems of his small family.
Gu Feng touched his nose and said, "Qiao'er, you come and arrange it."
Gu Feng ordered a round wooden table, four chairs, a coffee table, a chest of drawers, a dressing box with a bronze mirror, and a large wardrobe.
Qiao Yu asked Gu Feng to carry the square table from the living room into the bedroom and place it by the window.
The large round table was placed in the middle of the main room, with two chairs next to it, and the remaining two chairs were placed next to the coffee table. The original chairs were placed in a row against the wall, and the main room suddenly became tidy.
There are four drawers under the round table, and Qiao Yu thought that they could store a lot of snacks.
The exquisite dressing table was placed on the square table in the bedroom. Qiao Yu finally saw her own appearance clearly for the first time since coming into this world.
The original owner looked a bit like herself, but was much prettier than herself. Qiao Yu was very satisfied with her current appearance.
After the large wardrobe was placed in the bedroom, the space suddenly became cramped, so Qiao Yurang carried the chest of drawers into the two children's room for them to use.
Gu Feng gave Lin Dalin another twenty cents as a reward before coming back to look at the new furniture with Qiao Yu.
"This furniture is so well made." Especially this bronze mirror, it reflects so clearly.
"Brother Gu must have spent a lot of money. Does our family have any money left?" Qiao Yu was a little worried.
The two children were looking at the new cabinet in their room at the moment. Gu Feng pulled the young husband into the room and took out all the silver from the place where they hid the money under the bed.
"Don't worry about the family having no money, my husband. You will be in charge of all the money in the family from now on."
Gu Feng handed the purse to Qiao Yu, and pulled the young man to sit on his lap and hugged him.
Qiao Yu froze all of a sudden, and didn't move at all in the man's arms.
Seeing that the young husband didn't move, Gu Feng poured out the silver in his purse, two large and two small silver ingots, the big one was fifty taels and the small one was ten taels.
"Here are seventy taels. Take it."
Gu Feng put the silver back into the purse and gave it to Qiao Yu. He then took out an old purse from his arms and poured out the money inside, including small change and copper coins.
"I still have a little over three taels of silver on me, I'll give it all to you."
After saying that, he stuffed it into Qiao Yu's arms.
Qiao Yu was shocked. This hunter was much richer than he thought. You know, in the original owner's memory, an acre of top-quality land could be sold for fifteen taels, medium-quality land for twelve taels, and inferior land for eight taels.
In the village, ten taels of silver could build a very good mud house, but if you wanted a brick and tile house, you would need thirty taels or more.
But only the village chief's house has a tiled house in the village.
Gu Feng's savings suddenly made Qiao Yu excited, and she had to make good use of the money.
At the same time, we must also find ways to earn some money and not live off our savings.
The young couple in the house were slowly planning their future when an uninvited guest came outside.
The person who came was not very old, probably about fifteen or sixteen years old, thin and small, with an oval face, phoenix eyes, and a small light brown mole between his eyebrows.
He was standing outside the door with a small basket in his calloused hands, looking into the yard.
"Is Brother Qiao at home?" The visitor finally plucked up the courage and called out in a low voice.
The two children ran to the gate first and asked softly, "Who are you looking for?"
"I...I'm looking for Qiao Yu."
Li Wen held the basket tightly in his hands, feeling a little uneasy.
I just heard yesterday that Qiao Yu was married to the hunter Gu family three days ago. As a good friend, I didn't help with the work right away, and I feel very sorry about it.
She was also worried that the vicious hunter would treat Qiao Ge'er badly, so she went to the town today to sell the embroidered handkerchief for money, and then asked around to find him.
"Mom~" Gu Xiaoyan ran into the house, "A little brother wants to play with you."
Gu Xiaoxue opened the door and said, "Brother, come in. Mom and Dad are at home."
“Oh, okay.
"Although Li Wen felt it was a bit strange that they called Qiao Yu Niang, he still went straight into the yard and found that the yard was tidy and orderly.
"Little brother, please sit down." After saying this, Gu Xiaoxue went to the kitchen to pour water and added a spoonful of sugar like her mother did.
At this time, Qiao Yu and Gu Feng also came out.
When Qiao Yu saw Li Wen, he searched the original owner's memory and pretended to be familiar with him and said, "Brother Wen, why are you here?"
As soon as Wen Ge'er sat down, he saw Qiao Yu and immediately stood up and pulled Qiao Yu aside.
Anxiously asked: "Qiao Ge'er, you...how are you?"
She glanced at Gu Feng again and asked in a lower voice, "Is he good to you?"
Qiao Yu didn't expect that Wen Ge'er was so loyal that he dared to come to her alone, fearing that she would not have a good life.
Qiao Yu patted Wen Ge'er's hand soothingly and pulled him back to sit at the stone table.
"I'm fine. Look, do the new clothes Brother Gu bought for me look good?" Qiao Yu said as she turned around.
Brother Wen praised it and said it was beautiful.
Gu Feng stood there awkwardly. When his husband's friend came, he really didn't know how to greet him.
Qiao Yu quickly came to his rescue and solemnly introduced him to Li Wen, "This is Gu Feng, my... my husband."
Qiao Yu turned to Gu Feng and said, "Brother Gu, this is my childhood friend and best friend, Li Wen, Brother Wen."
Gu Feng nodded to Li Wen as a greeting. Li Wen also smiled slightly.
"Qiao, this is the handkerchief I embroidered for you, and the cloud cake I bought in town. Consider it my gift to you for your marriage."
Li Wen took out half a pound of cloud cake and a handkerchief embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water from the basket.
"I hope you will be happily married and have a baby soon."
Qiao Yu remembered that the handkerchiefs made by Li Wen could only be sold for a dozen cents at most, while the Yunpian cakes in the town were sold for dozens of cents per pound.
Moreover, Li Wen's parents did not split up the family property, and all the money they earned had to be handed over to the public.
Qiao Yu was so moved that he didn't say anything for a long time. Li Wen thought he had said something wrong. How could guys like them with dark pregnancy moles have children?
He whispered, "I...I was wrong, don't be angry, Brother Qiao."
"How could I be angry? I like Yunpian Cake the most. I also like your handkerchief. Our Wen Ge'er's embroidery skills are better than those of the embroiderers in the palace." Qiao Yu praised quickly.
The original owner could not embroider and could only do simple sewing, but Wen Ge'er was famous in the village for her embroidery skills, because Wen Ge'er's mother used to be an embroiderer in a wealthy family in the town, and Wen Ge'er had been learning from her mother since she was a child.
It was also because Wen Ge'er's mother was able to earn money that his grandmother never let his parents separate. Wen Ge'er's mother was injured when giving birth to him and never got pregnant again after that.
Wen Ge'er's father loves his wife very much and would never marry a concubine to give birth to a son.
So grandma didn't like Wen Ge'er's family very much, and she wanted to squeeze money from the first wife's family to support the second and third wives.
Wen Ge'er heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, and only then did he have time to drink some water. "So sweet."
Gu Xiaoxue looked at her mother and asked for credit: "Mom, I poured the water for little brother."
Qiao Yu happily touched Xiaoxue's head, "Xuebao'er is so good."
It was already the evening hour, and Wen Ge'er was about to go home after sitting for a while so as not to worry his parents.
Qiao Yu originally planned to invite everyone to dinner, but there was really nothing good to serve at home.
So I packed a jar of dried pears. There were some crayfish left over from lunch, so I made a new dipping sauce and mixed the steamed shrimps in it and packed that into a jar as well. Finally, I got a small jar of autumn pear paste.
Pack everything and put it in Li Wen's basket.
"Here, this is the dried pears I dried yesterday. They are just perfect now. Try them." Qiao Yu picked up a piece with chopsticks and gave it to Wen Ge'er.
"It's sweet, chewy, and has the aroma of pears." Li Wen tasted a piece and praised it.
Qiao Yu gestured to the two children to do it themselves, and then picked up a piece and gave it to Gu Feng.
Gu Feng also nodded, "Qiao'er's cooking is delicious."
"Delicious."
"Mom is so awesome." The two children also said.
Li Wen saw the whole family and Qiao Yu being together and having a great time, and he was happy for him.
When Qiao Yu sent him out, she reminded him again and again: "Dried pears are delicious, but you can't eat them before going to bed. If you eat them, remember to brush your teeth. Wait four or five days before drinking the autumn pear paste, it will taste better. When drinking it, use a clean spoon to scoop out a spoonful and mix it with warm water. The autumn pear paste is very effective in moistening the lungs and relieving coughs. Don't drink it as sugar water. Eat this cicada when you get home, otherwise it will go bad."
"I see. I'm relieved to see that you're fine. Will you come back tomorrow? Your stepmother is making up bad things about you in the village, saying that your husband came to your house and beat and scolded you, and that you will never come back after you get married." Wen Ge'er was still a little worried before leaving.
Qiao Yuqi was amused, wishing that the family would cut off ties with her. "Since she said that, I won't reply. I will have nothing to do with them in the future. Wen Ge'er, come and play with me when you are free, and I will cook you something delicious."
Seeing that Qiao Yu had her own plans, Li Wen didn't say anything more. He agreed to come over in three days and go up the mountain to look for chestnuts together before leaving reluctantly.
-
For dinner, Qiao Yu made a simple bowl of egg noodles for the family, and the three of them ate it all up as usual.
Of course Gu Feng still boiled a bowl of medicine, and Qiao Yu drank it with a bitter face. After drinking it, Gu Feng stuffed a piece of cloud cake into her mouth. It was soft and sticky, with a dense texture and very sweet.
The family ate for a while in the yard and then went back to their rooms to sleep.
When she was about to fall asleep, Qiao Yu vaguely felt someone putting his hand gently on her waist. Because she had been busy all day, Qiao Yu fell into a deep sleep the next second and did not hear Gu Feng's voice.
"Qiao'er, I will let you live a good life."
