After Transmigration, She Sold Herself to a Man as a Wife-Chapter 10

Updat𝓮d from freew𝒆bnov𝒆l.co(m)

"Are you the young wife of the Gu Family Second Son's family?"

During the time when they were washing things by the river, many village women also gradually came to the riverside.

This was Luo Ge's first time coming to the riverside. The women of the village would inevitably size her up when they came to wash clothes.

Well, which new daughter-in-law who married into the village wouldn't be gossiped about by the village women?

At this time, there were no mobile phones or other forms of entertainment. Apart from doing farm work every day, there was only washing clothes and cooking. At other idle times, they would only chat about each other’s families.

After all, currently these were the only things that could be gossiped about.

"Yes, auntie, do you need anything?"

Thinking this way and hearing others ask her, she naturally nodded and called the other party auntie, seeing that the other party was about the same age as Tie Dan's grandmother.

"Nothing much, auntie just wanted to ask. Young lady, you look quite pretty, a good match for the Second Son."

Seeing that Luo Ge was not as timid as other new daughters-in-law, Aunt Luo was quite surprised.

Looking at Luo Ge's little face, she smiled like a flower.

"Mother, don't stare at Jinchen's daughter-in-law like that. That fiery gaze, don't scare away Jinchen's daughter-in-law."

Seeing Aunt Luo's gaze, a young village woman next to her joked.

Hearing this, Luo Ge turned to look blankly at Wang Sister-In-Law next to her.

"This is the village chief’s wife, Aunt Luo."

"That's Xiu Niang, Aunt Luo's daughter-in-law."

Seeing Luo Ge's gaze, Wang Sister-In-Law smiled and introduced them to her.

"Auntie Luo, Sister-In-Law Xiu Niang." Hearing this, Luo Ge sweetly called them.

Jinchen had told her a bit about the village chief’s family. The village chief was also surnamed Gu, a year or two older than Jinchen’s father. They should call him uncle by seniority.

But this was how the villagers usually addressed Auntie Luo, so she also called her that.

He said that the relationship between the village chief and Jinchen’s father used to be very good. Over the years, he had taken good care of their family and the relationship between the two families had always been good.

"Oh, oh."

The village chief’s family did not have many people, but they had a harmonious family. Auntie Luo and her daughter-in-law Xiu Niang had a close relationship. Hearing Luo Ge's address, the mother and daughter-in-law both laughed in response.

"I heard before that you were in poor health. Looking at you now, your complexion looks quite good. Has your health recovered?" Auntie Luo looked Luo Ge up and down and asked.

"I’m better now, thanks for your concern, auntie."

"That's good. Although Jinchen is a man of few words,

he knows how to cherish others. Just stay with him well, and he won't let you down."

She knew that Jinchen had bought Luo Ge back from the refugees. It was really Jinchen's good luck to find such a pretty girl.

You should know that it was hard to find another girl as good-looking as her in these parts.

But Jinchen always liked to put on a cold face to others and didn’t like to talk much. Auntie Luo couldn’t help but say more, afraid that he wouldn’t be liked by the young lady.

Hearing Auntie Luo mention her pillow friend, Luo Ge's face felt a little hot.

"I know, auntie. He's very nice." After interacting with him for a few days, she could also see that Jinchen was a taciturn and attentive man.

She could tell from how he indulged her in using him as a hugging pillow. Recalling the scene when she woke up this morning, Luo Ge's face flushed slightly.

Last night, hearing him say that he had to get up early to go hunting up the mountain today, she got up a little earlier to prepare some dry rations for him.

She really didn't know until now that she was so restless in her sleep.

She was always alone before and didn't know that she would cling onto him like a koala when sleeping.

Yet he indulged her and never mentioned it to her.

Recalling how he massaged his numb hands, she felt a little embarrassed.

...Seeing Luo Ge's shy expression, Aunt Luo revealed an experienced smile.

"Fine, as long as you know clearly, life is lived by the couple together. Auntie will be waiting for your good news then."

Aunt Luo left this sentence for Luo Ge with a smile as she walked forward with Sister-In-Law Xiu.

Her words left Luo Ge thoroughly red-faced. The wedding banquet was already set. What other good news were they still waiting for?

Naturally, it would be a pregnancy...

And in order to get pregnant, they would first have to make some extra ‘effort’.

"Luo Ge, I'm also waiting for your good news." Seeing Luo Ge’s red face, Wang Sister-In-Law added fuel to the fire.

Now her face was completely red like a monkey's bottom.

...When she returned home and saw his things, she felt even more uneasy.

Thinking of Luo Ge, her gaze inadvertently looked towards the big mountain behind the village. She wondered how he was doing on the mountain.

It seemed that after being together for a few days, suddenly missing a person at home felt quite unfamiliar.

"Is the young aunt missing uncle? Don't worry, uncle said he'll be back tomorrow!"

When the two little ones came back, they happened to see her staring blankly at the mountains. Da Bao said this.

"Don't be afraid with Er Bao here, young aunt. Don't think about uncle."

Er Bao had just seen Wang Sister-In-Law and her husband next door. What first came to his mind was that 'the young aunt would be afraid to sleep alone without uncle around'.

After all, uncle had accompanied the young aunt for so long. Suddenly not being around, the young aunt would definitely be afraid. 𝒻𝘳𝓮ℯ𝑤𝘦𝒷𝓷𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝓂

As little men, they naturally had to protect the young aunt on behalf of uncle.

Luo Ge: "......Da Bao, Er Bao, what do you want to eat for lunch?"

When in doubt, divert the topic decisively.

.................

At this time, in the mountains.

"Achoo!" Gu Jinchen put away his hunting knife and threw the wild boar onto a simple sled made of tree branches, and rubbed his nose.

"That's the third time already. I heard that people only sneeze frequently when someone is missing them." Li Qiao the hunter raised his eyebrows next to him.

"I’ve never seen you like this before, Brother Jinchen. Could it be because you now have a wife at home?"

Hearing him mention his delicate wife, Gu Jinchen's mind conjured up Luo Ge's charming figure, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curving up.

He had to say, having a wife at home waiting for him felt quite different.

But he was not the kind of person who could be teased.

"What do you mean? Li Qiao, are you complaining that your sister-in-law is not missing you?"

Li Qiao the hunter was called Li Qiao. He was twenty-three this year, two years younger than Gu Jinchen.

Gu Jinchen was twenty-five this year. He should have gotten married early at this age, but he unfortunately encountered conscription just as he started proposing marriage.

He was delayed for a few years because of that. After he returned, he observed filial mourning for another year. Unknowingly, he was already twenty-five.

Upon hearing the other party mention his own fierce sister-in-law, Li Qiao's skin subconsciously tightened.

"What nonsense, I was just casually saying something. Haha."

"Speaking of which, Brother Jinchen, we were really lucky today. Not long after we arrived, we ran into this fatty. We can make quite a bit when we sell it in town."

"We'll also be able to go home early."

Looking at today's haul, Li Qiao was definitely surprised. Although he and Brother Jinchen always had good harvests when they went up the mountain before.

But this was still the first time they had such a huge harvest so quickly.

Gu Jinchen was also quite surprised, but it was fine.

"Yeah, let's pack up. I saw a rabbit nest over there just now. Wait for me to catch some before we leave."

Last night, he heard her sleep talking about rabbits. She must have been craving them badly to even dream about them. It wouldn’t be much trouble to catch some to bring back for her.

"Sure."

After communicating with Li Qiao, Gu Jinchen went forward with his hunting bow.

He was very skilled in archery, almost never missing a shot.

Soon he caught two rabbits and some wild chickens on the way back.

"Let's go. If we return now, we should be able to make it back home before dark."

They were going to first sell the wild boar in town now since it couldn't be kept fresh for long, and keep the live chickens they caught for the wedding banquet.

As for the pork, they could get some fresh ones from the village slaughterhouse on the wedding day.

"Alright."
