50 Chapter 50 Being Lectured
The two of them chatted for a while before they got up and looked for more pueraria. It was not until the sun was about to set that the two of them supported each other and headed back to the village.
However, no matter how fast they rushed, the sky was already dark when they returned to the village.
When they were about to reach the village entrance, they suddenly saw someone walking over with a torch. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Before they could see who it was, they heard a series of dog barks. They saw Er Zhuang running over happily. He came to the front of the two and circled three times before stopping.
âWhat a young couple you two are,â Mrs. Bai teased with a smile. âIt seems that Chengrui has come to pick you up.â
âAuntie, you only know how to tease me.â Zhou Ying pouted.
At that time, Gu Chengrui also walked over. He was stunned when he saw Mrs. Bai and said, âAuntie, so you guys were together. Just now, Tieniu was looking for you everywhere.â
âReally? Then Iâll have to hurry back.â After Mrs. Bai said that, she picked up her basket and jogged back.
Seeing this, Zhou Ying was relieved. At least she was not injured on the mountain. Then, she handed Gu Chengrui the pueraria tied with a rope and said, âRui, itâs time to go home.â
âYes.â Gu Chengrui took the pueraria, called on Er Zhuang, and they headed back home together.
When they reached home, Zhou Ying prepared warm water and washed up, while Gu Chengrui went to the kitchen to plate their food.
After the meal, Zhou Ying stretched her back and was about to lie down when Gu Chengrui pulled her up and said, âDonât come back so late in the future. Itâll be dangerous if you encounter a bad guy.â
Zhou Ying, who thought she had dodged a bullet, immediately sat up and replied earnestly, âIâll be more careful in the future.â
âThe mountains here are much more dangerous than the mountains in modern times. Donât be complacent.â said Gu Chengrui helplessly as he tapped her nose.
However, his eyes were filled with gentleness and worriedness.
âI definitely wonât.â After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she leaned her head on his shoulder and said, âBy the way, I heard from Auntie Jiaxi that the wealthy families here like to drink pueraria powder. We seem to have quite a lot of it in our interspace. Letâs sell a batch of them later.â
âSpeaking of value, the silver ear plant sells the best. The last time I went to doctor Luoâs place to sell medicine, I saw him sell two for one tael of silver.â
âThat expensive?â
âYes, the growing environment of the silver ear is relatively harsh. The main point is that there is no artificial cultivation here, so thatâs why itâs expensive. Unfortunately, our city does not produce silver ears.â
âIt seems that the interspace is a treasure mountain.â
âIndeed, but no matter what we sell, there must be a limit. After all, the production of wild herbs is limited.â
âI know.â
âWhy are you so sleepy?â Gu Chengrui looked at her face and turned to ask.
âIâm fine, but my waist feels uncomfortable. My stomach feels cold too.â Zhou Ying paused and said, âOh no, maybe Iâm about to get my period?â
âIâm 80% confident. Take a hot shower in the interspace, and Iâll make you a bowl of grass herb drink.â Gu Chengrui said as he turned around and walked toward the west room.
Seeing this, Zhou Ying turned around and took off her coat. She got the bed ready, entered her interspace, and took a hot bath in her bathtub. When her hair was almost dry, she put on her pajamas and went out of the space.
When she came out, Gu Chengrui had already boiled the medicine and was sitting in front of the bedside table, reading a book.
When he saw her come out, he pointed at the medicine and said, âDrink it quickly. After you drink it, go to bed and rest. Iâll do all the work inside the interspace.â
Zhou Ying nodded. She picked up the medicine, tried it, and found it almost chilled. She downed it and asked, âWhen will you enter the space?â
