Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
In the evening, Gu Chengrui had a meal in his old house and brought Gu Chenglin home.
After entering the house, he told Gu Chenglin, “Unpack your luggage. I’ll go boil some hot water. Let’s have a good hot bath.”
After saying that, he went to the west room to grab the bathtub and towel before going to the kitchen.
Gu Chenglin picked up his luggage and started unpacking.
Gu Chengrui went into the kitchen and lifted the lid to look. The pot was clean, but some oil was in it to prevent rust. He had to wash it well.
Only then did he realize there was no water or firewood in the kitchen. He could not boil water at all.
Suddenly, he felt dizzy and found himself back outside the interspace’s warehouse.
“You can do this?” He asked Zhou Ying in surprise.
“Of course, you forgot that I used the space to deal with Mrs. Tian and that coachman.”
“That’s true. I’ll take a quick shower before going back out.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the villa.
After he left, Zhou Ying took water from the river in her interspace to fill half of the water tank at her old home. She also sent out two loads of firewood.
She also placed about 100 pounds worth of charcoal. This way, they wouldn’t have to use firewood if they wanted to boil water to drink.
After she was done, she looked around and ensured there were no other problems. She quickly blessed two Mother God statues around the place.
She paused momentarily, took out a piece of white jade from her storeroom, and carved it into a thumb-sized statue of the Mother God.
When she was almost done, Gu Chengrui had also finished showering.
After that, she blessed the statue and handed it to him. “This is blessed. If you need anything in the future, you can look for me directly.”
“Thank you, babe.” After Gu Chengrui thanked her, he kissed her forehead. “Take care of yourself. I’ll be back as soon as possible.”
“Mhm, you take care of yourself too. By the way, is there anything you need to bring?” Zhou Ying asked.
“No, I’ll ask you for it if I need it.”
“Okay, I’ll send you back.” Zhou Ying nodded, and she sent him back.
After Gu Chengrui returned, he looked at the things in the kitchen and revealed a sweet smile.
Then, he washed the pot and boiled some water.
After the water boiled, he washed the bathtub and splashed some water on the ground. After he was done, he went to call Gu Chenglin.
He took some charcoal and put it into the small pottery stove to boil a pot of herbal tea.
After cleaning up, the two drank a pot of tea and read for a while before lying down to sleep.
After Gu Chengrui woke up the next morning, he brought their dirty clothes to the river to wash.
The two of them went to Gu Chengrui’s old residence for breakfast. After breakfast, Gu Chenglin stayed behind and followed Gu Chengxi to the fields.
Meanwhile, Gu Chengrui rushed to the manor.
He ran into Mrs. Wang not long after he left the house. He quickly walked up to her. “Auntie.”
“I was just about to look for you.” Mrs. Wang smiled.
“What is it?”
“There are two things. First, your uncle wants to invite you over for dinner tonight.
“Another thing is, Chengsi has already passed the imperial examination. We were thinking of holding a banquet for him the day after tomorrow, so we wanted to buy some beef from you.”
“Is one cow enough?”
“We’re planning to host a hundred tables. I don’t know if it’s enough, do you know?”
“That depends on what dish you want to cook. However, whether it’s braised or stewed, usually two pounds of raw meat will produce one pound of cooked meat.”
Mrs. Wang counted with her fingers and replied, “One is enough. I’ll take one first..”
