Chapter 3 New Willow Town

"Huh... I finally finished planting. Luckily it's summer vacation now, otherwise I wouldn't have the time to plant things in space."

Luo Xiao wiped the sweat from his forehead and straightened up.

The family's stored food was eaten up at grandpa's funeral, and it was new food that had just been harvested. If they wanted to plant a second season, they would have to wait. Besides, the food grown in the space might not taste as good or grow as fast. Luo Xiao created a field in the space.

Because it was still the seventh day after his grandfather's death, no one would come to his house to look for him, so Luo Xiao could stay at home and work in the space.

As for the food for the past two days, we had to make do with potatoes and pickles from the cellar. All the chickens in the house were gone, so there was no way to eat meat. The pigs we raised were also slaughtered for a funeral.

It can be said that now if a mouse comes into the house, it will leave cursing.

Luo Xiao thought of the difficulties in his previous life and clenched his fists. He swore that he must work hard in this life, strive to eat whatever he wanted and not worry about money!

But right now, what he needs most is food, food that can bring him nutrition. He doesn't want to be like in his previous life, less than 1.7 meters tall. In this life, he must eat better, ensure his body's nutrition, and strive to grow taller. In addition, he must go to high school and take the college entrance examination!

My grandfather hopes that he can go to college. He didn’t have the opportunity in his previous life, so he must work hard in this life.

Luo Xiao secretly encouraged himself.

In addition to planting rice on one-third of the area, Luo Xiao also planted corn cobs and vegetables in the space. The seeds were all leftovers at home, which also made it convenient for him.

After finishing his work, Luo Xiao washed his hands in the stream that was like a small ditch in the space, and then walked into the fenced yard. There was a small bench near the teardrop-shaped well with a water cup on it. He took the cup and scooped a cup from the well and drank it.

After taking a breath, Luo Xiao went back into the house and took out the washed clothes from the washing machine upstairs. Then, as he wished, he instantly came out of the space. The place he came out of was his own room, still behind the door.

After putting away the washed clothes that smelled like sunshine, Luo Xiao pushed the door and went out.

The yard was empty, and in the small vegetable garden there was not a single onion left. The only thing left was the tenacious perilla in the corner.

"This is just what a swarm of locusts does..." Luo Xiao muttered.

The vegetables, onions and garlic in the small vegetable garden were basically used up for the banquet. His father was very stingy and would not spend money if he could. He used whatever he had at home to prepare the banquet.

He never thought about what to do with his other son, after all, he didn't plan to take him away. So, from the beginning, Luo Xiao was the one who was abandoned, and his grandfather was also gone.

Looking at the empty pigsty and chicken coop, there was no noise from them in the yard. Except for the sound of the wind blowing the leaves of the persimmon tree in the yard, there was no other sound.

Walking to the corner, Luo Xiao picked a handful of perilla leaves. There should still be some chopped chili peppers at the bottom of the old jar in the kitchen. This is what his memory from his previous life told him.

Stir-fry the perilla and chopped pepper, then steam some rice and eat the last handful of rice in the house. Tomorrow he will go to the market to buy some rice. He didn't have much money in his previous life, and for a long time he had to save money and eat the potatoes stored in the cellar. In this life, although he doesn't have much money either, he first plans to buy some rice and other daily necessities. Only when he is full and drink enough can he have the energy and strength to change the current situation. What's more, the money he wants to earn will require some time.

Although he was thinking about something, he took the perilla leaves in his hand and walked to the water pressurized well in the yard to wash them.

By the time I finished my work and had dinner, the sun had already set.

Luo Xiao washed the pots and pans, went into the room, and went to the space to take a shower.

I sleep in the space. I don't bring the bed in, but sleep on the floor. There are no mosquitoes in the space, and the temperature is just right, cooler than outside, making it more suitable for rest.

The next day, after Luo Xiao woke up, he glanced at his electronic watch and found that the time was five forty in the morning. He got up quickly and left the space.

It's already daybreak outside.

Simply wash your face with water and then brush your teeth.

Luo Xiao lit a fire, boiled some potatoes, and had breakfast with the basil and chopped pepper sauce he had made last night.

By the time he pushed his second-hand bicycle, carried a covered backpack, and went out and locked the door, it was already six forty in the morning.

He didn't meet many people on the way. Those who went to the market to buy things would not come as early as he did, and those who sold things would come even earlier, so riding his bicycle on the yellow mud road was particularly smooth. He was the only one riding on the road.

Feeling the fresh morning air, Luo Xiao set off towards Xinliu Town.

That is because this town will become a county in the future, and the village that happens to be on the road will be included in the expansion and demolished.

They are about the same distance from the town and the neighboring county, or rather closer to the town, so most of the time they go to the town to attend the market.

After riding his bicycle for half an hour, Luo Xiao arrived at Xinliu Town.
