My Husband and I Brought Hundreds of Millions of Supplies to Farm Chapter 37

Chapter 37 Going Up The Mountain Again

“You’re being too polite. Just give it whenever you have it.” Mrs. w.a.n.g waved her hand.

“By the way, Chengrui has driven the ox cart to the field to help with the cabbage harvesting,” she said. “He won’t be back for lunch and dinner. You should come over later so you don’t have to cook alone.”

“Thank you for the offer, but I can’t. I have to make the quilt as soon as possible. Otherwise, I won’t be able to use it in time.” Zhou Ying hesitated for a moment but still refused.

“That’s true. Then, I’ll leave you to your work.” After Mrs. w.a.n.g finished speaking, she turned around and walked out.

After Zhou Ying sent her away, she immediately closed the door and returned to the house to get busy. After cutting the cloth, she took it to her inters.p.a.ce and used the sewing machine to make two five-foot seven-inch quilts and two bedding covers.

After it was done, she washed it in the was.h.i.+ng machine, soaked it in an odorless softener for 15 minutes, and finally dried it on the side.

Then, she went to the warehouse and found two cotton quilt covers that weighed five pounds each and were five-foot seven-inch long, a mattress cover and cut it into two. Finally, she found two silk cotton quilts six-foot seven-inch long and stacked them together. She planned to use them as a cover for the brick bed.

After she prepped all of them, she hung them to dry on the villa’s roof in the inters.p.a.ce.

As for the pillows, they had two already made from sorghum stalk. She just made two pillow covers with the coa.r.s.e cloth.

After she was done, she immediately left the inters.p.a.ce.

Seeing it was getting late, she immediately took out a bag of frozen dumplings with a vegetarian filling from her inters.p.a.ce and cooked them.

After resting for a while, she began to make cotton-padded clothes, but she couldn’t make it to work no matter what. She had to find two sets of fitting clothes in her inters.p.a.ce and try to patch them to look like she had made them.

However, even after Gu Chengrui returned at night with the cabbage, she only made her cotton-padded jacket.

Fortunately, they had a bed for the night, and the two of them were finally considered to have completely settled down.

Over the next two days, Gu Chengrui went to the patriarch’s house to help with the collection of cabbages, while Zhou Ying continued to make the two sets of cotton-padded clothes.

At the same time, she also made two sheepskin waistcoats by hand, chopped the various kinds of wood leftover when the roof was repaired into firewood and piled them under the wall.

The village chief’s family also took the opportunity to collect all the cabbages in their backyard.

When everything was ready, the two of them went up the mountain for five days in a row. While digging for medicinal herbs, they also collected more firewood. Suddenly, the pile of firewood in their house was almost enough for them to burn through the winter.

Of course, they had also collected a lot of medicinal herbs, but nothing was precious. Thus, they could only dig out two 50-year-old Chinese knotweeds from the inters.p.a.ce.

At the same time, they called back the dog that they had fed previously. After Gu Chengrui checked and cleaned it, it was officially a pet at their home.

After breakfast, Gu Chengrui asked, “Babe, you’re really not going to town?”

“Aren’t you with Mr. Tian? I won’t go over to join in the fun. Remember to buy five pounds of green beans, five pounds of soybeans, and two small water tubs when you come back.”

“Alright then. Then you should rest at home for half a day. Don’t go up the mountain again.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he took the two bags of medicinal herbs and walked out.

Seeing this, Zhou Ying picked up the small bag containing the Chinese knotweed and followed. After sending the two off, she was about to turn around and go home. Suddenly, someone behind her said, “You’re the Gu family’s wife, right?”

This sudden question startled Zhou Ying. When she turned her head, she saw a woman with a tired face. She was looking at her with a smile worse than someone crying.

“Yes, I’m Zhou Ying. Are you Mr. Tian’s sister?” She laughed dryly.

“Yeah, you’ve moved in for a few days, but we haven’t had a chance to talk. Come and visit when you’re free.” Sister Tian nodded.
