"It's okay. Anything you want to sell at the stall can be sold at any time. Our game can also be sold at the stall if we can't sell it in the county."
Su Wangqin said for a moment.
Is this to comfort her? Gu Chunzhu felt better in her heart, she watched him finish the brown rice porridge and bottomed it out.
Gu Chunzhu stopped eating after being half-full.
Seeing that Gu Chunzhu stopped moving her chopsticks, he put a piece of braised pork into her bowl.
"You eat meat too."
She couldn't help but say;
"I've grown a whole body of fat that makes me tired after just walking. You should eat it yourself."
She then put the meat into An An's bowl, touched her little head, and pushed the half a bowl of brown rice porridge aside with her other hand.
Suddenly, she heard the breathing on the dinner table increase, she saw Su Wangqin's eyes turn red, his hand holding the chopsticks shivered gently.
He saw Gu Chunzhu looking at him, and said, "You don't need to eat like this, I will feed you and your children." After that, he put down the empty bowl and ran out.
"This ..." Gu Chunzhu rubbed her eyebrows, her head hurt. She forgot that Su Wangqin was an ancient person. In addition, in such a small and impoverished village, it is a privilege to eat food, no one ever tried to lose weight.
It seems that Su Wangqin had misunderstood her, but she didn't want to give up weight loss.
The small bowl of braised meat was actually five or six pieces.
Gu Chunzhu distributed the braised meat to the two children.
Xiaocheng knew that his father and mother quarreled. He ate two pieces of meat and gave the rest to his sister.
The bowl was washed clean by Gu Chunzhu. After washing the bowls in her washbasin, she also gave XiaoCheng hot water to wipe their faces.

Gu Chunzhu looked very relieved. Although Xiaocheng didn't talk much, he was very clever and careful. After washing their faces, she poured the water from the washbasin into the footbath to wash their feet.
"Mother, come and wash our little feet with us." An An smiled, feeling full, her eyes bent into a crescent moon.
Gu Chunzhu sighed, this small girl will be a beautiful woman who'll be well known all over the country.
She has been an ordinary person in her past life, it felt good to have a beautiful daughter. She fantasizes that An An will grow up and raise their threshold.
There is also Xiaocheng who is washing his feet together with An An.
Even with a stern face and a somewhat cold posture, it's undeniable that he'll be a handsome demon in the future.
Gu Chunzhu suddenly thought of sending An An to a kindergarten but there was no kindergarten in ancient times.
Xiaocheng was eight years old.
She remembered that Qiu-shi had mentioned that her son Xiaolai was studying in school. She has to earn more money for the children so she can send them to school. That's it!
Of course, they must first make a living.
She'll think about it later.
She took the two children one by one to the big bed.
When she returned to the stove room, she saw Su Wangqin pouring the children's footwash.
"Brother Wang, did you get angry with me just now?"
Gu Chunzhu thought about it, she walked over and pulled his sleeves.
It would not be good for them to fight if they live under one roof.
Su Wangqin was shocked, he walked limply and put the basin inside.
Gu Chunzhu also followed him in.
Su Wangqin suddenly put Gu Chunzhu against the wall, his black eyes looked at her "Chun Zhu, I am also a man. Although I got an accident on the battlefield, I don't want you to look down on me. I can raise this family."

" Why are you suddenly saying this? …."
Her name, that came out of his mouth, because of his magnetic voice it sounded particularly beautiful.
Gu Chunzhu's nails scratched the dirt wall, she bit her lips in panic.
This was her first close contact with Su Wangqin with his breath close to her.
Su Wangqin withdrew his hand, the glory in his eyes dimmed.
"It's nothing. Go and drink that bowl of brown rice porridge. If I won't be able to hunt in the winter. I'll think of other ways."
"I really didn't save this food."
Gu Chunzhu was about to cry, it was impossible for her to coax this man until she eats fully.
A good idea popped out in her mind, she said;
"Duo'er is so slim and beautiful, I just want to be thinner so my face will be smaller."
"You are not fat, you're already beautiful."
Su Wangqin looked at her calmly.
(TL: KYAAAA!! Every woman needs a man like this. I swear!)
Gu Chunzhu's heart missed a beat, looking at the man in front of her with tan skin and his sincere eyes, she felt a bit shy, she turned her head to the side and dodged, "Brother Wang, I'll scrub my body, you, you go out first."
Su Wangqin left in compliance.
It was early winter, Gu Chunzhu couldn't take a bath every day as she did in modern times.
She has to wash in accordance. In case she caught a cold they could not afford a doctor. She simply scrubbed her body and returned to their room.
Both children were coaxed to bed by Su Wangqin, he wrapped them with a quilt.
The moment Gu Chunzhu climbed the bed, An'an stuck herself on her like an octopus, she muttered:
"Mother hug me to sleep."
"Yes, Mother is here" Gu Chunzhu took An'an into her arms and watched Su Wangqin walk out. After a while, he came back again, he turned off the oil lamp and went to bed.
Thinking of what happened in the stove room, Gu Chunzhu's heartbeat accelerated, but fortunately, the bed was small and they were squeezed with two children. She hugged the hot little meat dumplings and gradually fell asleep.
**
The early morning of the second day, Gu Chunzhu was woken up by Su Wangqin, she opened her hazy eyes and asked, "Brother Wang, what's wrong?"
"Didn't you say we'll go to the county today?" After he spoke, Gu Chunzhu's eyes closed once more so he decided to let Gu Chunzhu sleep a little longer.
He would just go by himself.
Hearing the word "county", Gu Chunzhu's eyes shot open, her mouth murmured, "Wild pheasant!"
Su Wangqin couldn't help but laugh, showing a row of white teeth.
When he saw that Gu Chunzhu woke up, he turned to the stove room. With the addition of firewood, the brown rice porridge was thickly boiled. He brought it out and let it cool.
"How long will it take us to go to and from the county?"
Asked Gu Chunzhu while she washed her face with warm water. It looked cloudy today, she remembered the two children lying on the bed.
"It will take us almost a day to sell things back and forth. It may be sunset when we get back."
Su Wangqin put a bowl of porridge in front of Gu Chunzhu.
She picked up the remaining half a bowl of porridge last night and drank it cleanly.
This made Gu Chunzhu very embarrassed. Su Wangqin went to get her another bowl of hot porridge.
She talked to him about the scruples in her heart. The last time she went out, the vegetable garden was messed up. It would be bad if the children were even taken away. The two discussed and decided to entrust the two children to Old Mrs. Su.
It was the children's grandma anyway.
