The Peasant Wife Has a Space

Aunt Chen didn’t believe what Cheng said. “You have something to do? What is it? I don’t think it would waste so much of your time if you leave after lunch.”

Cheng had no choice but to say, “Ma’am, I won’t hide it from you then. I came to Anxian County this time with a very important task. I came to find a relative of my family, my grandfather’s younger brother, who is also my second grandfather.

Qingguo works here and knows some people, so I asked him to help me find out about him. I just heard a little bit of news today, so I have to go back and deal with it now.”

That was not something he had made up. Qingguo did find out a little bit of information that day, but he was not in a hurry at that moment. He just took advantage of it and gave it as an excuse, so they wouldn’t have to eat there.

Aunt Chen didn’t doubt him anymore and finally resigned.

She didn’t think that the reason why Cheng came to Anxian Country was specifically to look for his master. It turned out that he was looking for his relatives, which truly made sense.

Since it was an important matter, she stopped insisting on them to stay and have a meal, but she still felt that it was a pity.

“You finally came here this time, but you’re leaving without even having a meal,” sighed Aunt Chen, who felt a little upset.

Cheng smiled and told her, “Ma’am, I’ll come back tomorrow and have a meal here at noon.”

Her mood improved a little bit. “Cheng, these are your words, okay? You must come over to have a meal here tomorrow at noon!”

After Cheng’s repeated assurances, she was very pleased.

Soon, Cheng and Qingguo left their house.

Xiulan also wandered around the black market, traded with some people, and prepared to go back.

Most of the people there had money and tickets. She originally wanted to trade her foodstuffs for some old objects and jewelry, but she didn’t come across any.

They didn’t dare to take out jewelry during that time, and at most, they would only dare to take out some money. Unless it was their last resort, no one really wanted to take such a big risk.

At noon, Xiulan took out a serving of clay pot rice and added a cup of milk tea from the space. She was very satisfied. It was much better than the meals at home, but unfortunately, she couldn’t take them out and eat them openly. If she could eat those at home in the future, then her days would go by smoothly.

The next morning, she got up early to go to the county seat again.

She would go to Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen’s house again to deliver some foodstuffs.

The jewelry that Uncle Chen’s old classmate would trade with was of great value and she was not a stingy person, so she took out a lot of good things.

She took out rice, white flour, and dried noodles, each weighing 20 catties.

There were also 5 catties of sesame oil, 30 eggs, 20 salted duck eggs, 5 pieces of bacon, and 15 pieces of sausages.

In addition, she also added snacks that could go well with alcoholic drinks, but not much, just 1 catty each of peanuts and aniseed-flavored beans. If you ate them slowly, then you could also have a few meals.

Any of those were all good things and difficult to get.

It was incredible for Xiulan to come up with all of those.

However, she would not be at a disadvantage by giving those things. She actually made a lot of money by getting expensive jewelry in return.

Once that era of peace came, foodstuffs would not be worth a few yuans altogether. It was true that the people in the current era would not be able to imagine that in a few decades, every family would be able to have good meals with meat and eat until they are full.

When she was about to arrive at Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen’s house, she took out the goods from the space and then entered their house.

Aunt Chen was filled with emotions because she sent so many good things again!
