The next morning, Pei Yuezhi got up early. Today's task was quite challenging: to find a way to make money.

I quickly cooked some porridge this morning. There wasn't much brown rice, so I could only add a lot of sweet potato.

With the pickled vegetables she made last night, a simple breakfast was ready. Pei Yuezhi went to the children's room to wake them up for breakfast.

The house had only two rooms. The two children lived in one room. The original owner's husband was a carpenter, and he built a partition between the children's rooms. The younger sister lived inside, and the older brother lived outside.

Upon entering the room, both children were already tidied up, and Fan Chao was combing Fan Mu's hair.

Little Fan Mu sat there obediently. When she saw Pei Yuezhi come in, she sweetly called out "Mother." Fan Chao greeted her and then continued to tie her hair seriously, her expression as if she were doing research.

After breakfast, Pei Yuezhi tidied up and went out for a walk by herself. Fan Chao usually looked at some old books after finishing his work. He liked reading, but his family was poor, so he could only look at the old books that others didn't want. Fan Mu usually played with the small wooden carvings his father made for a while.

Pei Yuezhi thought about it for a long time last night and decided to sell some food to make money. However, she still didn't know what to sell. She had received the seasoning gift pack, but the ingredients were scarce, and the family's funds were running low.

Why not sell some small potato pickles first to earn some money, and then decide what to do next? Small potatoes are cheap, and you don't need much meat to make pickles. You can pick wild vegetables in the mountains, and you can also buy some green peppers to put in. This doesn't require too much capital.

Selling pickled vegetables doesn't guarantee a market; the cost is low, but the profit won't be high either.

Pei Yuezhi was deep in thought and didn't notice someone in front of her, so she accidentally bumped into them again.

"I'm sorry, I was so lost in thought that I didn't watch where I was going," Pei Yuezhi quickly apologized.

"It's nothing, I was thinking about something and wasn't looking where I was going," the person opposite said.

Pei Yuezhi looked up and saw that it was Liu Yuanyuan, the woman from yesterday. What a coincidence, she had run into this person twice when she went out.

I don't know what's wrong with Liu Yuanyuan. Yesterday she seemed anxious and uneasy, and today she looks lost and dejected, with slightly red eyes.

Pei Yuezhi looked at Liu Yuanyuan, who was in low spirits, and asked softly, "What's wrong? Is there anything I can help you with?"

Liu Yuanyuan opened her mouth, hesitated, and finally just sighed softly: "I'm fine, thank you for your concern."

Although she found this person a bit strange, Pei Yuezhi didn't want to get involved in other people's family affairs, so she said goodbye to Liu Yuanyuan and was about to leave.

Pei Yuezhi had only taken two steps when she heard something she couldn't believe. Although she didn't hear it clearly, she vaguely made out a few words.

"Time travel", "can't go back", "already dead", "Yueyue".

Pei Yuezhi froze on the spot. She heard it clearly; these were the words Liu Yuanyuan had just said. Was she also a time traveler? And Yueyue—her nickname in modern times was Yueyue.

Moreover, her best friend is named Liu Yuanyuan, and this person is also called Liu Yuanyuan.

Pei Yuezhi was so shocked by this that she didn't notice a stone under her feet and tripped over it.

Liu Yuanyuan heard a cry of pain behind her, turned around and saw Pei Yuezhi fall down. She quickly went over and helped her up.

As Liu Yuanyuan helped Pei Yuezhi brush the dust off her clothes, she said, "You're not hurt, are you? Luckily, this is ground, not that hard."

It's pretty much confirmed that this is a fellow villager who traveled through time, and quite possibly her best friend as well.

Pei Yuezhi stared blankly at her, then stammered, "A poisonous snake flicking its tongue?"

She deliberately didn't ask about the Imperial Jade Liquor, but instead chose a less well-known skit, which was one of her and Yuanyuan's favorite shows.

Liu Yuanyuan looked up in shock, her face filled with excitement as she stared at Pei Yuezhi: "There are no footprints!"

The cipher connection was successful.

"Fellow villager! Waaah, we're in so much pain. You have no idea how I've been these past few days. I can't eat, I can't sleep, and I just died, it hurts so much." Liu Yuanyuan burst into tears as soon as she saw her fellow villager.

She cried and became more and more agitated, throwing herself into Pei Yuezhi's arms and sobbing uncontrollably. Luckily, no one was around at the moment.

This way of speaking is really like Yuanyuan. Pei Yuezhi tentatively asked, "Yuanyuan, do you know about the Moonlit Restaurant in H City in modern times?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yuanyuan immediately stopped crying. After thinking for a few seconds, she suddenly realized and exclaimed, "Pei Yuezhi, Pei Yue! You're Yueyue!!!"

Liu Yuanyuan was so excited that she thought she would never see Yueyue again, and she hugged Pei Yuezhi tightly.

Pei Yuezhi managed to say with difficulty, "Yuan...Yuanyuan, let go first, I'm suffocating."

Overwhelmed with emotion, Liu Yuanyuan didn't hear clearly and assumed she was also excited, so she hugged her even tighter: "Yuanyue, I almost never saw you again."

"If you don't let go now, you won't see me again in a little while!" Pei Yuezhi forcefully pried Liu Yuanyuan's hands off.

"I was just too excited," Liu Yuanyuan said, scratching her head sheepishly.

The two returned to Liu Yuanyuan's house. People could come out at any time. Liu Yuanyuan's son went out to play during the day and rarely stayed at home, so it was a good time for them to have a good chat.

Liu Yuanyuan hugged Pei Yuezhi and cried for a long time. After finally calming down, she was finally able to talk to her properly.

"Yuanyuan, you just said you were dead and in a lot of pain. What happened?" Pei Yuezhi asked with some heartache.

Liu Yuanyuan wiped away her tears and said, "Your workplace called me and said you had fainted, so I rushed to the hospital. On the way, a car ran a red light, and that's how the tragedy happened."

Pei Yuezhi hugged her tenderly: "Thank you, Yuanyuan, it's so good to have you."

"By the way, Yuanyuan, is there any system that's bound to you?" Pei Yuezhi asked.

Liu Yuanyuan's eyes widened: "What? A system!! I don't have one, where do I get it? Are you bound to a system? What do I do if I don't have one? Please don't abandon me!"

"Don't worry, Yuanyuan, I can't live without you," Pei Yuezhi said firmly, patting her shoulder.

It seems that only I have a system. With a system, it will be easier to survive and take good care of Yuanyuan. Fortunately, I didn't transmigrate for nothing.

Liu Yuanyuan suddenly remembered something and asked, "Yuanyue, did you ask the system how to go back? I may be dead, but you might not be. You're still in the hospital."

“I can’t go back. The system says it can’t detect my life energy anymore.” Pei Yuezhi was a little down. The thought of Yuanyuan also coming to this strange place because of her made her feel even worse.

"It's okay, Yueyue. Although we had an accident, the good thing is that we're still together," Liu Yuanyuan comforted Pei Yuezhi, noticing her low spirits.

The two chatted for a while longer, and Pei Yuezhi suddenly remembered the thing she had been researching all day.

"Yuanyuan, do you know any ways to make money here? The family I'm living in is really poor. Yesterday I made some pickled potatoes. Should I sell the pickled potatoes to earn some capital?"
