Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

After half a stick of incense.

The shop owner finally prepared two sets of clothes, packed them and handed them to Gu Chan.

Gu Chan asked, "How much silver is left?"

"The two sets of clothes cost eight taels of silver in total, and I'll give you twelve taels in change."

"Just give me ten taels. For the remaining two taels, you can buy me a few high-quality menstrual belts." Gu Chan stared at the boss and said seriously.

Before she traveled through time, she had seen TV dramas and novels that said that the thing used by women in ancient times during their menstruation was called a menstrual belt.

She didn't know if this was the name of the world, but she decided to call it that and see.

The boss looked at her in confusion, "What menstrual belt?"

"Oh! It's what women use every month when they have their menstruation." Gu Chan said unhappily.

The boss was startled, "Oh, you mean the menstrual strips!"

"Ah? Menstrual strips?" Gu Chan was dumbfounded.

Dry!

What is this thing? She has never heard of it!

Why is it that in this world, the things women use for menstruation are different from those in ancient China?

The boss laughed and asked, "Why would you buy this thing, kid?"

"You're really funny. Can't I buy it for my mother? My mother doesn't use it, but my aunt does!" Gu Chan retorted with a cold face.

The boss touched his chin awkwardly and didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he walked behind the counter, bent down and took out a brocade box, took out a small cylindrical bamboo tube about the length of an adult's index finger, and handed it to Gu Chan.

Gu Chan took the thing and looked at it, and was surprised.

This small bamboo tube is filled with high-quality white cotton, which is tied into a round strip with very soft thin thread, and there is a pull string buried in the middle of the white cotton strip.

"Interesting! It turns out that women in this world already use tampons. I thought they used menstrual belts!"

After realizing what the menstrual strips were, Gu Chan couldn't help but exclaim in her heart.

As expected, the worldview is different. Even in ancient times, many things are different.

There is no doubt that tampons can be thrown away directly after use, unlike menstrual belts, which need to be washed repeatedly. This is indeed convenient for women in ancient times.

But Gu Chan became curious again. Who invented something like this?

Could it be that before her, there were other travelers who came to this world? Otherwise, it would be difficult for the people of this world to invent this thing!

When the boss saw Gu Chan staring at the menstrual pads in a daze, he laughed and said, "Stop looking at them. They are women's stuff, why are you looking at them, kid? These menstrual pads are cheap, 20 cents each, I'll give you 10 for two taels of silver."

"Okay, then just give me ten taels of silver." Gu Chan came back to her senses and agreed.

The boss counted out nine more strips from the box and handed them to her, then gave her ten taels of silver in change.

Gu Chan put the menstrual note in her pocket, collected the money, and left with two sets of packed clothes.

Back to the cold noodle stall.

At this time, Ma Zheng was already very satisfied with his meal, and was getting a little impatient waiting at the table.

Gu Chan picked out a set of clothes from the ones she bought and handed them to him, "Here you go, this is for you."

"Boss...you...you're going to buy me new clothes?"

"Woooooooo..."

Ma Zheng took the clothes and at first looked incredulous, then he burst into tears.

Gu Chan was stunned!

It's just a set of clothes, isn't it? Why should I cry about it?

She was really speechless at this moment.

Ma Zheng suddenly rushed over, opened his arms and hugged Gu Chan in his arms, crying and saying, "You will always be my boss, my good brother, and I will follow you for the rest of my life."

"Oh! Your snot is flowing all over my shoulder, so disgusting!" Gu Chan looked disgusted and reached out to push the crybaby away.

Ma Zheng stopped crying and quickly reached out to wipe the tears and snot from his face.

Gu Chan said unhappily, "Stop crying. A real man should bleed but not cry. There's nothing to cry about."

"Yeah! The boss is right."

"Let's go! Let's go to Kaiyuan Pharmacy and find a room to change into new clothes. From now on, we must love ourselves, be nicer to ourselves, and spend more of the money we earn on ourselves." Gu Chan waved her hand and ordered.

Ma Zheng nodded quietly.

Then the two of them said no more and immediately went to Kaiyuan Pharmacy with the new clothes.

Zhou Dachuan never expected that Gu Chan would come today.

Just now, when Gu Chan brought Ma Zheng over, he was still standing behind the counter with a confused look on his face, "Why are you here?"

"Why, you're not welcome?" Gu Chan asked with a smile.

"Of course you're welcome, please take a seat!" Zhou Dachuan quickly waved his hand to invite him.

Gu Chan waved her hand, "I won't sit down anymore. I'll borrow your room so I can take a hot bath and change into new clothes."

"Oh! Why do you want to dress up today? Is there something happy?" Zhou Dachuan became interested.

Gu Chan's eyes rolled, and she suddenly had an idea and said, "It's really a happy event. I developed a medicine last night, so I came to you today to help me take a look. If it's suitable, I will give you the method directly without going through Zhao Erniu."

"Oh! That's great! Then you sit down first. I'll ask someone to go upstairs to prepare a room for you, and then get you a bucket of hot water." Zhou Dachuan instantly became extremely enthusiastic and quickly asked someone to go upstairs to prepare it.

Gu Chan and the other person sat on the chairs nearby and waited.

Ma Zheng put his mouth close to Gu Chan's ear and whispered, "Boss, have you really developed a new drug?"

"We'll talk about it later. Look how enthusiastic he is towards us now. This is called being cautious when dealing with a rat."

"Boss, you're the best. I admire you so much!" Ma Zheng couldn't help but give Gu Chan a thumbs up.

Gu Chan just smiled faintly and didn't say much.

After a while, the room upstairs was ready. Zhou Dachuan personally brought Gu Chan and the others to the door of the room, "Go in and take a shower! I'll wait for you downstairs."

"Thank you, Manager Zhou." Gu Chan thanked him politely.

"You're welcome. I should be the one thanking you. You are my little God of Wealth! Of course I have to worship you." Zhou Dachuan laughed and flattered him.

Gu Chan didn't take it to heart. She took Ma Zheng into the room and closed the door.

Zhou Dachuan had a smile on his face and went downstairs happily to wait.

house.

After the two of them came in, the atmosphere became a little awkward.

She had her period this morning and accidentally soiled her pants, and her legs were also a little dirty, so Gu Chan thought of coming here to borrow a room to take a bath and wash off the menstrual dirt on her body.

But the problem is, Ma Zheng is here too. She can't take off her pants in front of Ma Zheng, right?

Ma Zheng was very obedient. He put the clothes on the table and said to Gu Chan, "Come on, boss, I'll help you take off your pants. You wash in the tub first, and I'll rub your back. I'll wash after you're done."

After saying that, he squatted in front of Gu Chan and reached out to help her take off her pants.

Gu Chan didn't even think about it, and reacted almost instinctively, raising her right leg and kicking him away.
