Chapter 853 The little widow of the rough man in the mountains 4
It is said that it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality, but Gu Ruojiao really experienced it firsthand.
Even I dislike the food she cooks.
Especially since this house only has unpalatable brown rice and a basket of vegetables, not even a piece of meat!
And there are worse things ahead.
The embroidery work I originally took on fell to the floor in the chaos yesterday and became dirty.
Although those fabrics are not top quality, they are certainly not cheap either.
“It’s really raining all night when the house is leaking!”
Gu Ruojiao's heart twisted just at the thought of the money she was about to lose, and she tightly covered the small silver ingot in her hand and refused to let go.
This is the silver she found hidden by Mother Bell according to the direction given by the system.
No more, no less, just five taels.
The greedy relatives of the Gu family were so smart at the beginning that they bought off the shallow-eyed mother-in-law Zhong with a dowry of one hundred taels.
It won't take long to spend a hundred taels.
The original person has spent half of it before he has passed through the door.
Later, Mrs. Zhong also regretted it, and she beat and scolded the original body even harder, trying to force her to go back to those clan members to ask for money.
If you are greedy, the snake swallows the elephant.
It's a pity that who would have thought that she would die first.
But with only five taels, Gu Ruojiao couldn't think of what she could do with them.
And the most important thing right now is to solve the problem of food.
besides……
Gu Ruojiao thought of the man she met last night.
Her intuition told her that this was the person she was looking for.
But her identity in this plane is that of a widow!
Gu Ruojiao gritted her teeth: "System, you definitely did it on purpose, right?"
The system voice showed a guilty conscience: The host really misunderstood, Erqiu is not such a person.
Gu Ruojiao snorted: "I didn't misunderstand, because you are not a human being at all!"
system:……
Do you feel like you've been scolded but not as if you've been scolded?

Although the prospects are worrying, Gu Ruojiao is not someone who gives up easily.
She is now walking up the mountain carrying the bamboo basket.
That's right, she is going to dig sweet potatoes!
So, when Qin Tianyi was covered in sweat and was about to go back to freshen up, he saw a little delicate woman squatting in his vegetable garden to steal something.
The little lady didn't look like she had done much heavy work. She dug a sweet potato and made her dress dirty.
Although she had carefully carried her skirt into her arms, she didn't know that the hem of her skirt was dragging the floor behind her.
Last night, her long black hair was pulled up and styled into a woman's bun, showing her identity.
Qin Tianyi's eyes fell uncontrollably on that slender and beautiful neck.
A strand of long hair that he had forgotten to pull up clung to his neck playfully. The strong contrast between white and black made him want to step forward and pick out the strand of hair, put it on his fingers and roll it up to play with.
"What are you doing?"
He knew that he should just pretend that he didn't see him and walk away, but his body was obviously faster than his thinking, and he had already walked over before he could react.
Hearing his voice, the little lady was startled and looked up in panic.
Those clear eyes immediately jumped into Qin Tianyi's eyes.
It is as clean as a deer in the forest that is not stained by dust, making people reluctant to destroy this rare purity.
The moonlight was hazy last night, and he didn't see anything inappropriate, so he didn't see it too clearly.
Now that I look at it, I understand a little bit why those men are coveting her.
For such a small mountain village, her beauty is like a fairy who has fallen into the world, which is definitely not what this world should have.
Qin Tianyi didn't like this kind of publicity, and he didn't want to have anything to do with her.
So his attitude was a little cold: "You broke into other people's private land and stole things. Do you want me to escort you to the Yamen?"
