Because the RV is relatively tall, it sways noticeably from side to side when there are potholes or uneven surfaces.

Shen Zheng didn't even dare to go to the upper bunk, fearing that if the train veered to the left, his weight would cause it to overturn.

The whole family sat below, helping to adjust the weight on the left and right, but Xue Tuan, who was completely unaware of what was happening, was forced to lie face down in the middle.

While the ride wasn't exactly terrifying, it was still much more tiring than usual.

Shen Xingmian missed the modern asphalt roads terribly. No wonder people say, "If you want to get rich, build roads first." Without smooth roads, it becomes a big problem to go out once it rains or snows.

She found a video of cars speeding along a modern highway and showed it to everyone.

“Let’s pave these roads in the North from now on. No matter how heavy the rain, we won’t be unable to go out. As for snow, we’ll have to shovel it off manually, which is a bit of a hassle.”

"What does it matter? Anyway, the people of the North are all aware that they won't travel far in winter. As for the area in front of their homes, who doesn't sweep the snow?" Shen Zheng said indifferently.

He had spent his childhood traveling in the North with his father and grandfather, and knew quite a bit about the area. Upon seeing this smooth road, he was immediately captivated.

If it were frozen on top, it would be so exciting to slide on!

You don't even need to travel far to the river; you can ice skate right at your doorstep. It couldn't be more fun!

"Little sister, from now on, we'll pave this kind of road in front of our house. You and Yan'er can sit on the sled, and I'll pull you around. It'll be so much fun!"

Hmm, her cousin is really honest; he even wanted to personally take them out to play. What a great guy!

She nodded hurriedly and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you, cousin!"

Shen Zheng waved his hand with great magnanimity: "It's nothing, no trouble at all."

He's almost as tall as his father now, so he's no longer a teenager but an adult. Taking care of his two little sisters is no hardship for him.

Even if he brings another one, he has no problem.

Who knew that his idea would actually come true, and he ended up having to add a little tail to his tail.

Shen Xingmian found a video of dogs pulling sleds and pointed to the Alaskan Malamute in it: "These dogs are large and more suitable for raising in the North. They are very fast at pulling sleds."

Moreover, they were incredibly cute when they were little, all fluffy, and they don't look particularly scrawny when they grow up; they're still quite pleasing to the eye.

Everyone is already aware of Mianmian's appearance-obsessed nature; even when raising a dog, she has to consider whether it looks good.

They would sometimes even feel fortunate that their family members were all reasonably good-looking, otherwise Mianmian would have to suffer so much looking at them every day.

Shen Zheng peeked out and liked it too. He had always wanted to raise a puppy. The feeling of having a little thing following him around would be very happy.

However, he was always busy in the military camp and afraid he wouldn't be able to take care of the puppy, so he hadn't been able to raise it. If Mianmian were willing to raise it, that would be wonderful; he could finally have a dog to play with.

"But I don't know if Xue Tuan can get along with the puppies. If we bring one back and it eats it, that would be a nightmare."

Shen Xingmian's words made everyone's expressions turn serious, and they all looked at Xue Tuan with unfriendly expressions.

Yes, even though Xue Tuan looks cute and cuddly now, she's still a tiger. If she meets a puppy, she'll probably devour it whole.

"In that case, why not just wait for Snowball to grow up and pull the sleds instead of raising puppies?" Xiao Yanyue rarely made such a suggestion.

"Hmm, that's fine, but tigers aren't as obedient as dogs. We'll have to see how things go. If Snowball is incredibly lazy and won't budge no matter how we try, then we really won't know what to do with it."

Snowball looked at everyone with wet, bewildered eyes, completely unaware of what kind of future these people were planning for it.

Bored, it rolled around leisurely and stretched out its paw to lick itself.

Looking at its adorable appearance, Shen Xingmian sighed softly and said, "Forget it, let's just treat it as a mascot. As long as Xuetuan doesn't hurt anyone, we'll keep it."

"It lives so comfortably, I'm even a little envious of it," Shen Xingyan said, resting her chin on her hand.

"Nonsense. It's just that Xue Tuan is lucky to have met you all. Otherwise, who knows what kind of fate she would have had or what kind of life she would have lived?"

"What if, as soon as I grow up, someone takes a liking to my fur? That would be terrible!"

After Mu Zhizhi finished speaking, she gently tapped her daughter's head.

"That's right. Even if royalty were willing to keep such large beasts, they would still be kept in cages every day. There are very few families in the entire Linyue who dare to let them roam freely like our family."

When Shen Yunting said this, there was an undisguised pride in his tone.

"And it's not necessarily just being locked up; they might also be sent out to fight and kill other wild beasts for people to watch and enjoy."

"Hmm, if I have to be locked in a cage every day and go through that kind of thing, I'd rather be released back into the mountains. At least I'd be free. Besides, Snowball is a tiger! Once it grows up, it won't have any natural enemies. It'll be the overlord of any mountain it goes to!"

As Shen Xingyan spoke, she got excited and stood up, leaning close to Xue Tuan and giving it a couple of hard strokes.

Shen Xingmian thought her cousin was right. She didn't need to worry too much about what would happen to Xuetuan in the future. Just raise it, but don't ruin it, and its life won't be too bad.

Moreover, this little guy is very clever. It seems to know her special qualities and always likes to stick to her, acting as her cushion. Its fluffy body makes her feel good, so she can't help but feed it some supernatural water.

She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she always felt that Xue Tuan seemed to be able to understand what they were saying, at least some simple words.

For example, if you call it back, as long as Shen Xingmian calls its name, it will run back no matter how much fun it is playing.

This is quite reassuring; it's much better than those pets that ignore you no matter how much you call them. If you feed them more of the "powerful water" in the future, they might even become smarter.

There are also animals in the space. Once you have enough roosters and rabbits, you can release them to practice hunting. When they grow a little older, you can also use sheep and wild boars to practice.

However, once we reach the North, we can take it into the deep mountains in the spring to gather various mushrooms and lingzhi while letting it forage for food for everyone.

We can't just keep raising them for nothing; they have to serve some purpose.

Shen Xingmian loves picking mushrooms. Once the space is upgraded and the land area increases, she wants to use the extra space to grow mushrooms. They grow fast to begin with, and even faster in the space, producing a new batch every day. It couldn't be more enjoyable.

She used to watch others immerse themselves in mushroom picking and hear the sounds of it making her itch to try it herself. Now it's finally her turn.

Moreover, if you want to plant something else, you can quickly accelerate its growth by spending a little wood-type ability, which is very convenient and does not conflict with what you plant.

The more I think about it, the more satisfied I become. The plan will be put into practice next spring.

hey-hey.
