Chapter 7 The benefits of traveling through the book are here!
Qin Zhizhi was overjoyed when she saw the fish and river shrimps caught by her cousin.
"Second brother, can you go home and get a basket or a bucket so we can take these home?"
Qin Zhizhi originally wanted to go home and get it herself, but she was worried about leaving the two children by the river, so she had to ask Gu Jingshu to go back and get it.
"Sister-in-law, please wait a moment. I'll go home and get it. I'll be back soon!"
Gu Jingshu was very proactive in following his sister-in-law's instructions. Before his brother left, he specifically told him to listen to his sister-in-law.
Gu Jingshu ran very fast, fearing that he would delay his sister-in-law's business.
When they came back, they brought Gu Jingyao with them. The brother and sister, one holding a wooden bucket and the other holding a basket.
The Gu family lives at the head of the village, so Gu Jingshu leaves quickly and comes back quickly too.
"Sister-in-law, Jingyao is here to help too." The little girl was very happy.
"Our Jingyao is so great. Sister-in-law just needs a basket." Qin Zhizhi touched Gu Jingyao's head with a gentle look on her face. The little girl smiled with her eyebrows curved at the praise.
"Fifth brother, that's enough. Come over and help us pretend so we can go home earlier."
Seeing that Qin Qinghui was still catching fish, Qin Zhizhi shouted to him.
"Third sister, wait a moment, there's a big one here, it'll be ready soon!"
While Qin Qinghui was speaking, he caught another big fish, which made Qin Zhizhi laugh out loud. She thought her fifth brother was so amazing.
Several people packed the fish and shrimps swiftly. Qin Zhizhi carried a large bucket of fish herself, Qin Qinghui helped carry the porcini mushrooms, and Gu Jingshu carried the caught shrimps.
Gu Jingyao followed Qin Zhizhi and helped her sister-in-law carry the bucket with her little hands. She was so cute.
Several people entered the yard. Gu's mother heard the noise and hurried out to see what was going on.
"Zhizhi, you're back, Qinghui is here too! What are you doing?" Mother Gu asked with a smile.
"Mom, my second brother and I picked some mushrooms, and I asked my fifth brother to help me catch some fish and shrimp."
Qin Zhizhi put down the bucket. Fortunately, this body still had some strength, otherwise she really wouldn't be able to lift the bucket of fish back.
When Mother Gu came closer, she saw that there was actually a whole bucket full of food.
"Why are there so many? Zhizhi must be exhausted. Why don't you ask Jingshu to ask mom to come and carry them?"
Seeing so many fish brought back by Qin Zhizhi alone, Gu's mother felt distressed and worried that her daughter-in-law would be tired.
"Mom, I can lift it. I'll need you to help Zhizhi deal with these fish later."
Qin Zhizhi looked at her mother's worried eyes and quickly acted coquettishly.
"Tell me how to do it, I'll do it for you, you go in and take a rest first."
Mother Gu felt sorry for Qin Zhizhi and planned to deal with the fish herself.
"Mom, I'm not tired. Let's hurry up and finish it before dark, so we don't have to light the oil lamp."
Qin Zhizhi is now full of energy and just wants to process these fish and shrimps as soon as possible and then enjoy a feast.
"Okay, but if you're tired, stop and rest for a while. Don't force yourself."
Mother Gu said worriedly that she treasured such a good daughter-in-law and that the Lin family was blind.
Qin Zhizhi assigned tasks to everyone, and the little ones were responsible for washing the shrimps.
Qin Zhizhi carried the porcini mushrooms into the kitchen and took them out carefully.
At this moment, I heard a ding-dong sound in my brain: "Hello, Master. I am the omnipotent Everything Shop. Welcome to the shop."
Qin Zhizhi was confused for a moment, and the cute little baby voice in her head was still introducing herself.
Seeing that Qin Zhizhi didn't respond, the little baby voice continued to ask, "Master, you can hear me, right? You can call me Wanwan. This is the store of all things. Master, as long as you take the things here, you can exchange them with Wanwan for modern things!"
Qin Zhizhi finally realized that this was a blessing from heaven. With this exchange system, she would not have to worry about not being able to survive in ancient times.
Qin Zhizhi was secretly delighted, but pretended to be calm and asked, "Are you sure you can change anything?"
"Of course. There's nothing Wanwan can't exchange for, except what the master can't think of." Wanwan almost patted his chest as he made the promise.
Afraid that Qin Zhizhi wouldn't believe it, Wanwan excitedly said, "Master, the porcini mushrooms in your hand can be exchanged now. Do you want to try it?"
Qin Zhizhi only had porcini mushrooms on hand at the moment, and she just wanted to try out the exchange Wanwan mentioned, so she took out about a pound of porcini mushrooms from the basket.
"Well, let's exchange these. How much can you get?"
"Master, please wait a moment. Wanwan will help you convert it right away." Wanwan's enthusiastic voice sounded.
"I've detected a pound of wild porcini mushrooms, worth about 150 yuan. They can be exchanged for items worth one or two ounces of silver. Would you like to exchange them now?"
Qin Zhizhi didn't expect that a pound of porcini mushrooms could be exchanged for one tael of silver. In her impression, one tael of silver was equivalent to 1,000 wen here.
In the county town, refined rice is only four cents per catty, brown rice is two cents per catty, pork is eight cents per catty, and fatty meat is ten cents per catty.
"Can I keep it here with you first? I'll call you when I need to change something." Qin Zhizhi discussed with Wanwan.
"Of course, Wanwan is at my service at any time!" Wanwan felt that this showed that the master trusted him, and he was very happy.
"Then how can I find you when I need you?" Qin Zhizhi wanted to ask the rules clearly first, so that she would not be unable to find you when she needed her.
"Master, don't worry. Wanwan is here anytime. Just call Wanwan with your mind and he will appear." Wanwan explained happily.
"Okay, I have to get busy now. I'll call you later!" Qin Zhizhi still had to go out to help process the fish, so she calmed down her excitement and walked out of the kitchen.
"Mom, let me help!" Qin Zhizhi rolled up her sleeves and joined Gu's mother.
The three little ones quickly helped to wash the river shrimps, and surrounded Gu's mother and Qin Zhizhi to watch them process the fish. From time to time, they helped to scoop water or wash the fish that the two had processed.
Qin Zhizhi remembered that there were wild onions and wild ginger in the Qin family's vegetable garden that she and Qin Qinghui had dug from the mountains.
The two of them didn't know the specific uses of these things. They just thought they looked nice, so they dug them up and planted them in their own vegetable garden.
Thinking that they would need it to cook fish and shrimp later, Qin Zhizhi discussed with Qin Qinghui, "Fifth brother, can you go to our vegetable garden and get me some of the things we transplanted from the mountain?"
"How much do you need, Third Sister? I'll go home and get it for you." Qin Qinghui was happy to help.
"You don't need too much, just bring back a little of each." Green onions and ginger are just ingredients, so you don't need too much.
"Okay, I'll go right away!" Qin Qinghui said and ran out.
Qin Zhizhi chased to the door and shouted worriedly, "Be careful, don't fall."
"I understand, Third Sister!" Qin Qinghui had already run very far.
Qin Zhizhi shook her head helplessly. It would be a waste if her fifth brother didn't go running at this speed. It was a pity that there were no sports students in ancient times.
Qin Zhizhi turned around and went back to continue processing the fish, and the small courtyard was filled with laughter.
