Transmigrated into Substitute Bride ‘Fu Lang’

he heard his words, he took away the miscellaneous things and took out the wheelbarrow from the bottom.
He then pushed it in front of Chen Xing and said to him, “This thing was originally obsolete, if you want it, I’ll price it 50 wen.”

 

Chen Xing had just asked before, if it was a brand new unicycle, it would cost 300 wen, but this one was a bit old but still usable.
He nodded and immediately agreed to it.

 

The old carpenter looked at the happy Chen Xing and was silent for a moment.
After he took his money, he told him to wait.

 

Chen Xing was a bit confused and didn’t understand why, but he watched the old carpenter go into the house and bring out a bunch of tools, and then make a continual banging sound as he helped him repair some of the worn-out areas of the old wheelbarrow for half of a day.

 

Waiting until he had finished all of it, the old carpenter then gave the cart to Chen Xing and said, “There, you can take it away now.”

 

Chen Xing pushed it for a while and felt that the wheelbarrow was better than before, beside that, it was more solid and sturdy.
Knowing that the old carpenter had been kind enough to help him, he thanked him sincerely, “Thank you!”

The old carpenter looked at Chen Xing, who was smiling brightly, and gently waved his hand, indicating that he did not need him to say thanks.

 

By having his own wheelbarrow, Chen Xing bought two more wooden barrels that fit on either side of the unicycle and used the extra money to buy an extra wooden basin that could fit on top of the wooden barrel, and then happily pushed his cart out of this place towards the vegetable market.

 

On his way to the market, Chen Xing also bought the spices he needed at the grocery store.
He would still feel a little distressed when he saw that his money bag was half empty but soon he cheered up and pulled himself together.
As long as he sold what he had made, it was only a matter of time before he made his money back.

 

Chen Xing arrived at the market and went straight to the bean curd stall that he had his eye on.
Because he had a large quantity to buy and he needed it fresh, he went over to the stall owner, negotiated the price and asked if it could be delivered to his place.

 

After learning the quantity Chen Xing wanted and negotiating the price, the stall owner readily agreed to Chen Xing’s request for delivery.
It was only when Chen Xing mentioned his address that the tofu stall owner’s face began to look odd.

 

Chen Xing sensed that something was wrong with the owner as he looked at him strangely and asked, “What is it? Is there any problem?”

 

The stall owner looked at Chen Xing’s puzzled expression and asked with a bit of fear on his face, “You, this ger, why do you live in a place like that?”

 

Chen Xing only thought that his question was strange, why couldn’t he live in that kind of place? While thinking like this, he also asked him this question directly.

 

The stall owner looked at him with a complicated expression and asked in a somewhat odd tone, “Do you know who lived there in the past?”

 

Looking at the stall owner’s expression, Chen Xing’s suspicion deepened and he asked uncertainly, “Wasn’t it the Gu family?”

 

Hearing his answer, the stall owner was so excited that he slapped his thigh, “That’s right, it’s the Gu family! Since you know that the Gu family used to live there, then how dare you live there? Are you from abroad?”

Chen Xing hesitated for a moment, not knowing if he transmigrated like this was considered as a foreigner, but still, he nodded his head.

 

When the stall owner saw him nod, he became more and more agitated, “Then you must have been fooled by the person who rented the room to you, back then, dozens of Gu’s family’s members died overnight.
I heard that blood was spilled all over the place.
Everyone thought it was a place with bad luck so they always made a detour and walked around from there.”

 

Hearing what he said, a look of disbelief appeared on Chen Xing’s face.
Looking at the agitated stall owner, he understood why he was reluctant to go there, but understanding as he was, he indeed couldn’t come here to buy it himself, it would delay and take too long of his time.

 

Hence, Chen Xing looked at the agitated stall owner and discussed with him, “Boss, don’t worry, I am still living fine in there and it’s not a scary place.
If you are afraid, just leave the bean curd outside the gate and I will move it inside by myself.”

 

When the stall owner saw Chen Xing’s remain unmoved look, he hesitated for a while but finally nodded and agreed to his proposal.

 

Chen Xing made an appointment with him when it would be the time to deliver the bean curd, so after he paid him the deposit, he pushed his cart and went back.
On his way back, from time to time, he would remember what the stall owner had said.

 

Since Chen Xing was very fast, when he returned to the house, there was still some time before dinner, so he did not rush to cook dinner.
Instead, he pushed the wheelbarrow and its contents into the courtyard where the kitchen was located.
After putting the spices in the kitchen, tidying it up, he started boiling the water, preparing to boil and clean the newly purchased utensils.

 

The moment he got busy, he became occupied with it for a long time.
When he had finished boiling the water, he saw, not knowing since when Qiu Jiu had come over at some point, sneaking into the courtyard and looking around at his new purchases with a curious look on his face.

 

Chen Xing looked at his curious face and asked with a smile, “What are you looking at?”

 

Qiu Jiu raised his eyes and turned to look in his direction.
His eyes flashed with some curiosity as he pointed at those piles of strange things and asked, “What kind of food are you prepared to make with these things?”

 

Looking at his curious eyes, Chen Xing smiled and said cheerfully, “Wait for tomorrow, tomorrow you will be able to see the new food I made.
I guarantee you’ll like it too.”
