The two first went to the market and bought five chickens and five ducks. Mainly because it was winter and some of them were difficult to raise, they didn't buy that many.
Then I bought another fifty catties of rice, thirty catties of flour, and twenty catties of old rice.
The main reason is that there's now another person in the family. Men have bigger appetites, and with the construction of the house, we naturally need more rice and other necessities.
Some millet and brown rice don't taste good and aren't popular with people nowadays, but they're cheaper, so Yin Lan naturally bought some too. Eating only white rice isn't good either; eating more whole grains is better for your health.
She stole a glance at Chen Yourun, but the man remained expressionless, simply following behind to pay the bill.
Then he bought some sweet and sour soy sauce, which are daily necessities, and Chen Yourun continued to pay for them.
Then, Yin Lan discovered that there was an even larger area behind the market, which was somewhat similar to a "furniture market" or a handicrafts market.
Yin Lan's face lit up immediately.
Since Jiuli is going to build new houses, the things they use can also be upgraded.
She had long felt that the room was too empty, with almost no "furniture".
I'm still struggling with how to do it.
Chen Yourun could handle things like wardrobes, but...
Yin Lan wandered around for a while, then stopped in front of a stall selling chairs.
Chen Yourun raised an eyebrow, looking at his wife whose eyes were shining.
"Aren't there chairs at home?"
"This stool is different. Look how big this chair is, and you can lie down on it." This is similar to a recliner.
"The chairs at home can only be used for sitting upright, but this one can be used for lying down. Just imagine, we can lie down and eat sunflower seeds, lie down and look at the moon, lie down and enjoy the breeze and the scenery outside, wouldn't that be great?"
As Yin Lan spoke, her hand unconsciously linked with the man's arm.
Chen Yourun still didn't know what this thing was for. If you had to lie down, didn't you have a bed at home?
However, he glanced down at the slender, fair fingers on his arm.
His arms were a dark tan, while hers were exceptionally white, almost transparent. How could they be so white?
"Buy it!" Chen Yourun said.
They gave him one hundred coins directly.
"My husband, you are so good to me," Yin Lan said with a smile.
Is that so? The man put in both money and effort, so it's only right that she praises him. She can't let him get nothing in return, can she?
Chen Yourun was stunned.
Husband... my husband?
This was the first time she had ever called him that.
Next, Yin Lan took a fancy to a cabinet.
Chen Yourun didn't understand, "This cabinet is too small, it can't hold anything, and it's openwork, so it's not very useful."
Yin Lan explained, "This can be used in the kitchen to store bowls and chopsticks. The openwork design is just right, allowing moisture to escape, and the size is also perfect."
Do we really need to put our bowls and chopsticks in a special cabinet?
Tsk...
What kind of rule is this?
However, his wife looked at him expectantly, "Husband?"
Chen Yourun took out the money directly.
This man is too easy to coax, Yin Lan was a little surprised.
She knew that no one in the village used these things. Bowls and chopsticks were just placed directly on the stove. Why would it be worth spending money to buy things to put them on? Wouldn't that be a waste of money?
However, this man is quite accepting.
What Yin Lan didn't know was that it wasn't that this man was highly accepting, but rather that he had low resistance to the word "husband," especially when he uttered the word "husband."
Chen Yourun still wondered, why buy all these random things?
After walking a few steps, Yin Lan saw a long bamboo bench and looked at Chen Yourun.
Chen Yourun had almost developed a conditioned reflex; he didn't even need to ask what the thing was for. He just assumed that since his wife wanted to buy it, it must be useful, and that those uses were things he couldn't understand.
"Buy it." He took out his money directly.
The old man who bought the item was so excited that his hands and feet were trembling. "Oh my, I finally sold it!"
He made this thing casually, and he doesn't know what it's good for, so nobody buys it.
Surprisingly, I actually encountered someone with a screw loose who actually bought it.
The item only costs thirty coins, which is very cheap.
Then, Yin Lan bought a few other things. The people at the market were almost familiar with her and were trying their best to sell her things, saying, "Look at this one?"
It seems this pretty wife buys anything, no matter how useless it is, and the tall, strong man behind her is so doting; no matter how extravagant she is, he obediently pays for it.
Finally, Yin Lan felt she had bought enough. Most importantly, she was afraid that if she bought any more, the oxcart wouldn't be able to hold it all.
As they were preparing to return home, Chen Yourun stopped his oxcart as they passed a cosmetics shop.
Meeting Yin Lan's questioning gaze, he said, "I'll buy you some."
Yin Lan didn't want it. She didn't like to go through all that trouble. Besides, the original owner of this body was already very well-off. She had good skin, fair and tender, and her lips were pink even without any makeup. Her eyebrows were naturally black without any drawing.
Chen Yourun still pulled her inside. The shopkeeper enthusiastically recommended a lot of things to Yin Lan. Yin Lan was astonished. She never knew before that these things for young women were so expensive.
Actually, these are all sold to ladies from well-off families, so naturally they are expensive.
The villagers can't afford these things.
Yin Lan doesn't want it.
Chen Yourun still picked out a face cream for her, saying it could nourish her skin. "The women in the village are all tanned, rough, and peeling. If you use this, your skin won't peel."
It must be something to moisturize the skin, so Yin Lan didn't refuse.
Good heavens, it's actually one or two taels of silver.
Chen Yourun escaped quickly and easily.
Once they were outside, Yin Lan couldn't help but ask, "Such a small box of things, one tael of silver, isn't that expensive?"
Chen Yourun looked at her earnestly, "I'll buy you something even better later."
Tsk...
It's not true that Yin Lan won't take action.
"In the future, I'll buy you whatever you want."
Oh my....
When other men say such things, it sounds like they're just bragging or making empty promises, but when Chen Yourun says it, for some reason, Yin Lan doesn't doubt it at all.
Perhaps it's because when he speaks, he looks you in the eye and is very attentive.
Yin Lan also knew that he was a capable person, someone who wouldn't make empty boasts.
"Buy me everything?"
"Buy whatever you want now, as long as it doesn't exceed the amount of money we have at home. In the future, when we have more money, I'll give you whatever other people have too." Chen Yourun took her hand.
Yin Lan smiled and lowered her head.
Okay, she might be a little materialistic; she was genuinely touched by the man's generosity.
Suddenly, I didn't want to pull my hand away; I just wanted him to hold it.
Even if a man doesn't know its use or understand it, he won't even blink.
Yes, she thinks it's pretty good.
Chen Yourun's lips curled up high, unable to suppress it even if he tried.
"What did you call me just now?" he asked.
