My Husband and I Brought Hundreds of Millions of Supplies to Farm Chapter 36

Chapter 36 Penniless

“Wait a moment.” After Zhou Ying said that, she took out her money pouch. Counting the exact amount, she looked at the only two copper coins left in her hand and secretly broke into a sweat.

Fortunately, she had listened to Gu Chengrui’s words and did not buy anything else. Otherwise, she would have made a fool of herself today.

In the end, she simply gave the extra two coppers to the little shop a.s.sistant and asked him to give two medium-sized needles for the quilt.

When she was done buying here, Mrs. Huang was almost done too. Finally, the mother and daughter each helped her carry a piece of cloth out while she took the sack of cotton.

After putting the things in the cart, Gu Chengrui looked at the Huang mother and daughter and asked, “Aunt Huang, do you want to go back together or…?”

“You guys go on ahead. We have to buy something else.” Mrs. Huang waved her hand and said.

They were ordered to buy meat today, so it was inconvenient to be with them.

“Alright, then we’ll take our leave first.” Gu Chengrui didn’t think much about it. After speaking, he drove the ox cart back with Zhou Ying.

After returning home, Zhou Ying put the cloth and cotton into the house and then moved the rest of the stuff to the kitchen with Gu Chengrui.

Then, she took out the three water tubs, only using the largest one to store water. She planned to store food in the remaining two small tubs; otherwise, their food would easily attract rats.

After she was done, Zhou Ying turned her head and said, “By the way, Rui, I have to tell you that we are penniless again.”

“I got it, so we have to go into the mountains two more times. At least it will ensure that we have food and clothing this winter.

“You can go make the quilt. I have to return the ox cart.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he drove the ox cart and left.

Zhou Ying returned to the main room and looked at the cloth and scattered cotton on the bed. It seemed that she could only take the ready-made vest from her inters.p.a.ce.

After making up her mind, she took a pair of scissors and a ruler from her inters.p.a.ce and began cutting the quilt and mattress covers.

Just as she started, she heard Mrs. w.a.n.g shouting from outside. “Chengrui, are you home?”

“Yes, Aunty, please come in.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she looked at the empty bed. She quickly took out the old quilt and threw it at the head of the bed.

Just then, Mrs. w.a.n.g came in with a pile of woven goods. There was a broom, a curtain, a woven pot cover, a wooden steamer, a bamboo dustpan, a basket, and a few steamed buns. “These are some things that your uncle personally made. Although they look ordinary, they are quite durable. You guys can use them first.”

“Thank you so much! These things are what we need the most at the moment.” Zhou Ying quickly stepped forward to take it and put it aside.

“That’s why people say that a new house is worth thousands. There are a lot of things that need to be added after moving. If you need anything, just let me know.”

“Aunty, you are the best. If there’s anything I really need help with, I’ll let you know.”

“That’s right. You can’t do everything on your own. ” When Mrs. w.a.n.g said this, she saw many things on the bed and asked, “Oh, you’re planning to make a new quilt?”

“Yeah, otherwise it’ll get cold.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she invited her to sit on the bed.

Mrs. w.a.n.g shook her head. “It’s fine. I’m going to harvest the cabbages at home. Chengrui said that you want to keep them for the winter. I wonder how many you plan to take.”

“How many are there available in your house?”

“Don’t worry. I’ve planted more than 20 acres of land. It’s definitely enough for your family. ”

“Then I’ll take 300 pounds. I’ll also buy some radishes, dried vegetables, and the like to go with it.” Zhou Ying continued, “But I’m afraid you’ll have to wait a few more days for this money.”
