Chapter 665 Unexpected stranger

  ” Having a room to yourself is still the best,” sighed Su Wan as she hugged the pillow and lazily closed her eyes in contentment it wasn’t that she disliked having her husbands around with her but she would still like to have a space of her own. 

After she was done rolling around the bed, she got up and finished moving her items into the shelves that were built next to her bed and put her clothes neatly in the cabinet. While she was moving her thing, she heard someone knock on the door and she turned around before crossing the room and opening the sliding door with a push. ” Jing Ge, what’s the matter?” 

” Wan Wan, if you are not tired would you mind taking a stroll with me?” Lin Jing has looked for a perfect house for a long time, it could be said that he wanted everything to be perfected but even though the house was perfect in his eyes, he still wanted Su Wan’s stamp of approval to make him feel at ease. Originally, he planned to have a romantic date with Su Wan before bringing her home and showing her around but it couldn’t happen thanks to the villagers who were just so stupid that he didn’t even wish to think about them. 

His romantic date was blown out of the window, so now the least he could do was take a stroll with Su Wan right?

”I am not tired, Jing ge… if you want we could take a stroll around the vicinity.” Although she was tired, Su Wan could see the expectant glimmer in Lin Jing’s eyes, so she immediately agreed. After all, Lin Jing, this first husband of hers has worked so hard, that he deserved to be treated with a reward.

Their house was carefully located in the area where the commoners of the town lived but even then the locality was calm and the surrounding people seemed to be the sort of persons who loved peace. When the two of them walked out of the residential area and walked onto Main Street, Su Wan noticed that many small shops sold goods, surprisingly their price was a little higher than they would have been when they were in the village. 

Fang Xiaolin used to sell her a dozen eggs at twenty copper coins but the eggs that were being sold in the town were twice in price despite being smaller in size. 

” I would rather have Brother Dai deliver their eggs than buy these,” commented Su Wan after she walked away from the shop where eggs and chicken were being sold. ” Did you see the sizes of those eggs they were like the size of a quail, I would rather have the ones that Xiaolin sells, that was just him trying to rip us off, just because we look like simpletons, he thinks he can sell us anything at whatever price? Heh, I am not that much of an idiot!” 

Lin Jing watched Su Wan scold the shopkeeper with adoration in his eyes as he looked at her as she rapidly spoke one thing after another with a really cute expression on her face. “It is all right, we can still get the things that we can from the village, I will tell the Feng brothers that we want to buy eggs and meat from them, I am sure they will be willing to sell those to us at a reasonable price.” 

” That’s exactly what I am going to do,” said Su Wan with a huff as she rolled her eyes in indignation. ” This is too much, do they think we don’t know anything?” 

Lin Jing and Su Wan hardly came to the town and all the shopkeepers weren’t used to them, therefore when they looked at their simple attire and thought that they were easy to foo.  If it was Lin Yan who was known for his shrewd attitude accompanying Su Wan then they would have been more polite to her. 

At one shop, Su Wan’s eyes fell on a shop that was selling cotton. The amount for which the shopkeeper was selling it was decent and even though the price was a bit higher than most commoners would be able to buy but the quality was good as Su Wan took a look at it, she was sure that if she was to have blankets made out of this cotton they will be able to have a very warm winter. 

The Lin family had blankets but they were a year old and because of the limited money they only bought what could be used without giving it much thought, after that winter passed without much trouble and they forgot everything about the blankets but now that Su Wan saw such thick cotton, she immediately used her knowledge from the past life and put it into use. 

Since the weather was still warm not many people will buy cotton thinking that there was no need at the moment and even if they wanted to buy it early they will wait till autumn instead of buying it in the middle of the summer but Su Wan was the rare unique one who not only walked to the cotton shop but she also bought a bulk of cotton after haggling for a long time and gave it to Lin Jing to carry. 

After she was done tackling the seller of the cotton shop, she looked around for a decent tailor compared to the village where there were only a few women who knew sewing the town had tailors and seamstresses at every turn, thus Su Wan was able to find a good seamstress and handed her the job of making the blankets. 

” This way, we will be able to have good quality blankets at the cheapest price,” said Su Wan sounding quite proud of her smartness. ” Don’t you think so?” 

However, when she turned around to look at Lin Jing, she noticed that his face has gone pale as he looked at the person who walking toward them.
