After Transmigration, She Sold Herself to a Man as a Wife

Chapter 69

The tender sprouts that had just emerged were not hard to pluck. It didn't take long for them to finish weeding the wheat field.

As for the field, they would deal with it tomorrow.

Ming was bringing some fertilizer over to spread in the wheat field and the plot, as their two plots of land were not very fertile.

They had to add some fertilizer, or the crops wouldn't grow well.

"Besides flatbread, is there anything else you'd like for dinner? It's still early, or should I go catch a couple of rabbits?"

After tidying up and dusting off his hands, Gu Jinchen looked at Luo Ge and spoke.

It had been a while since he'd brought back any wild game, and he thought he might go look, since there was still time.

Of all the wild game he had caught before, Luo Ge's favorite was rabbit.

Hearing this, Luo Ge shook her head repeatedly: "No rabbits."

She had heard that if a pregnant woman eats rabbit, the baby might be born with a cleft lip. She couldn't eat it.

She didn't know if there was any scientific basis for this, but it was better to be safe than sorry.

Rubbing her belly unconsciously, she said, "How about a wild chicken? You can roast it for us to eat."

Knowing her husband's capabilities, she didn't hesitate to order.

"Sure, wait for me. I'll be back soon."

When he went to collect honey, he saw a wild chicken's nest with a few eggs left in it, but he was busy with the honey at the time and didn't pay attention to it.

Now the wild chicken should be coming back to the nest, perfect timing.

"Okay." Luo Ge nodded obediently, hugging the basket.

There were familiar faces working in the neighboring field, so she would wait here without any issues.

"Luo Ge!" Just as she was waiting, she suddenly heard someone calling her name from behind.

"Wang Sister-In-Law." Turning around, Luo Ge smiled and greeted her.

"Eh, you've finished your work but haven't gone home yet?"

Wang Sister-In-Law had just finished working in the field and walked towards Luo Ge while dusting off the soil from her clothes.

"No, he went up the mountain. I'm waiting for him here."

"Then I'll sit with you and rest for a bit. My husband hasn't finished tidying up either."

Saying that, Wang Sister-In-Law found a spot nearby to sit and rest, taking a sip of water.

"Luo Ge, you were right. My little brat might actually be quite suited for studying."

Mentioning her little brat, Wang Sister-In-Law couldn't help but smile.

For generations, their family had been working in the fields, and they couldn't recognize many characters.

Who would have thought that their child was a studious one? They were overjoyed to find out.

Wang Sister-In-Law had always been outspoken and couldn't help but share her joy when she had the chance.

"It's because you gave him a good foundation by raising him well."

Seeing Wang Sister-In-Law's happiness, Luo Ge was also happy for them, and smiled as she said this.

"Hehehe, seems so."

Hearing Luo Ge's words, Wang Sister-In-Law was taken aback for a moment, then realized it was true and couldn't help but grin.

The two women had always gotten along well. Now that they were sitting together with nothing to do, they immediately started chatting.

Luo Ge also learned from Wang Sister-In-Law many of the gossips that she hadn't heard completely the day before.

Even the juicy stories that the village ladies liked to gossip about, Wang Sister-In-Law told them all enthusiastically, making Luo Ge blush all the way down to her neck as she went on.

"By the way, has your husband been causing any trouble lately? It's still the first three months, you can't spoil him too much."

As they chatted, Wang Sister-In-Law didn't forget to remind Luo Ge.

Luo Ge obediently nodded: "Mm-hmm, I've got it under control."

When Wang Big Brother and Gu Jinchen returned, this was the scene they saw.

"What are you chatting about?" Seeing their wives engrossed in conversation, the two men couldn't help but ask.

Especially Gu Jinchen, seeing his little wife's face flushed bright red, he became even more puzzled.

"Did you get sunburned?" He tested her temperature, frowning slightly.

"Pfft, no sunburn, she's just embarrassed." Seeing his doting behavior, Wang Sister-In-Law couldn't help but laugh.

Her glare at Wang Sister-In-Law made Luo Ge blush even harder.

Gu Jinchen: "???"

Wang Big Brother: "???"

Wang Sister-In-Law was already at that age and had a straightforward personality. She didn't shy away from such topics with the village ladies.

But she had forgotten that Luo Ge was still a new bride who had only recently gotten married.

This flushed face was just like when Wang Sister-In-Law had first heard the village ladies talk about such things.

"Let's go home." Seeing Gu Jinchen raise his eyebrows, as if he still wanted to ask further, Luo Ge quickly spoke up.

"Yes, yes, let's go home. The children should be back too."

Hearing Luo Ge's words, Wang Sister-In-Law also hurriedly smiled.

Being neighbors, the two young couples walked back together.

"You even brought back so many wild chicken eggs?"

When they got home and saw what Gu Jinchen had brought back, Luo Ge couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Yeah, I took the whole nest."

He brought back both the chicken and the eggs.

"Pfft." This man was becoming more and more amusing with his words.

"Then you clean them up, and I'll knead the dough."

"Okay."

There was a charcoal brazier at home, perfect for roasting meat.

The chicken bodies would be skewered and roasted over it.

The wings, drumsticks, and other parts would be skewered and roasted separately.

She had cooking spices in her space and had already taken out a regular jar to store them.

"It would be great if we had eggplants and Chinese chives. And maybe some grilled oysters and small meat skewers."

The flatbread dough was already being prepared in the kitchen, brushed with honey and roasted. Luo Ge couldn't help but mutter.

Paired with some beer, it would be a delicious barbecue, with a fragrant aroma.

Hearing her words, Gu Jinchen looked up at her.

"We'll plant some next time."

He had seen the seeds for those two vegetables in her space, but they weren't planted in their vegetable patch.

"I'll be right back."

Saying that, he went out and bought a lean piece of pork belly from the village butcher, cutting it into small cubes and skewering them, just like she had described.

"Can this be roasted too?" He handed the skewered meat to her and asked.

Luo Ge's eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly.

"This will be delicious when roasted." Roasted pork belly, with a fragrant aroma.

She hadn't even thought of that.

Seeing her reaction, Gu Jinchen smiled.

"Then it's settled." As long as she liked it, it was fine.
