Everyone was at a stalemate, and no one could convince anyone else. In the end, Yun Qi thought of moving some of the medicinal herbs in the space to the greenhouse, so that it could be said that they were planted from the supplies stored in the past.

After this period of staying indoors, the family has become even closer. Si Cheng praised his wife with ease: "My wife is so smart."

Junjun and Lele joined in the fun, saying, "My mom is the smartest."

"Mom is smart."

Yun Qi coaxed them so much that he picked them up and kissed each of them, while the two elders of the Yun family watched them clown around with amusement.

Since the freezing weather began, Si Cheng has covered the greenhouse with another thick layer of straw and cleaned off the ice every day. The temperature inside the greenhouse is kept constant at over ten degrees Celsius. Since there is no electricity, Si Cheng and Yun's father have built a stove inside. Fortunately, they had stored enough firewood on the mountain using Yun Qi's space and coal that they had previously purchased from the mine, so they can keep the fire going.

The family spent another day in the greenhouse transplanting medicinal herbs that were almost ready for harvest. Once the herbs have taken root, they can be taken out openly and legitimately.

The weather got colder and colder each day, proving that humans are incredibly adaptable. At the beginning, when temperatures were -45 degrees Celsius and no one dared to go out, after more than a month, the temperature has dropped to below -50 degrees Celsius, and people are actually starting to visit each other again.

Although you have to dress like a bear to go out, it doesn't stop people's enthusiasm for going out. Of course, the elderly and children at home are still not allowed to go out.

"Brother Cheng, let's go icebreaking and fishing." Yun Tao and the others gathered at home early in the morning, hoping that Si Cheng could join them.

"Where are we going to find fish? The river is frozen solid; we might as well dig for fish," said Mr. Yun directly.

Yun Jianying quickly said, "We shouldn't go into the riverbed. The ice in the riverbed is too hard to dig out, and we don't know exactly where the fish are, so we might not even be able to find any."

"If it's not a river, then where does it go?"

"We want to go and take a look at the lake at the entrance of the village."

"Could there be any fish in that lake?" Mr. Yun was very skeptical.

"There should be some. When we were building the wall in the village before, we saw some movement in the lake. Even if we didn't catch any fish, it can still be a good opportunity for everyone to go out and have some exercise."

Yunqi asked them curiously, "What are you going to use to catch fish? Are you going to try with your bare hands, or wait for the fish to jump up on their own?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Xun gave Yun Qi a thumbs up: "Sis, how did you know? Isn't it just like someone jumping out of the air because they're lacking oxygen?"

Dad Yun couldn't help but laugh: "Fish breathe at most on the surface of the water, how could they jump out on their own? It's understandable if there are one or two stupid fish occasionally, but you should at least prepare some landing nets."

Everyone looked at each other, and no one had actually prepared anything like fishing nets.

Yunqi and the others were also helpless. At the time, they had stocked up on a lot of sea fish and hadn't even thought about preparing a spare fishing net.

Si Cheng pointed them in the right direction: "Go find your brother Monkey and his family. Their two families used to be fishermen, and they should still have some fishing nets there."

Upon hearing this, Yun Jianying and Zhao Dongwei immediately got up and went to their two homes. They were so eager to go!

A short while later, they arrived with the monkey brothers, the bear, and a large bag of nets.

Now that everything was ready, the group didn't linger any longer.

Sicheng then picked up a pickaxe and shovel from his house and went out with them.

When the two siblings saw their father walking out, they rushed to follow him, but Yunqi picked them up one by one and lifted them onto the kang (a heated brick bed).

"Mommy is bad, we want Daddy." Lele said, and tears were about to fall.

Yunqi quickly coaxed, "How about Mommy performs a magic trick for you?"

Lele quickly stated her request: "I want a pretty Barbie doll, and lots and lots of clothes."

Junjun wasn't about to be outdone: "I want it."

"Little kids shouldn't eat so much candy, okay? How about Mommy turns into a construction vehicle for you?"

"No, I want it." Junjun didn't know why, but he really liked sweets. To prevent him from getting cavities in the future, the adults tried their best to control his sweets, but he always managed to coax the two elders in the family to give them to him. In the end, Yunqi stored all the sweets in the house in his space, and even white sugar was rarely left outside.

Grandma, however, softened her heart towards her little grandson and spoke up for him: "We haven't given him anything sweet for many days. You always refuse to let him eat, and he keeps thinking that it's actually not so bad. Give him some to eat first, and I'll take him to rinse his mouth in a bit."

Upon hearing this, the clever Junjun rushed over and hugged her grandmother's arm, saying, "I love Grandma the most. Grandma, please help me rinse my mouth later."

"Doesn't my little darling love Grandpa anymore? Grandpa is very sad." Dad Yun was also a little jealous.

"I love you both the most."

Watching his son trying to please him, Yunqi felt helpless. It seemed like his son and daughter had switched personalities; even Lele wasn't as sweet-talking as him.

Seeing Yunqi still standing there in a daze, Yunqi's mother patted her and said, "Hurry up and get some candy for our precious grandson. What are you daydreaming about?"

"Mom, you don't love me anymore. I've fallen out of favor ever since these two little ones came along."

"Don't you know how old you are? How dare you compete for attention with two little darlings? Hurry up and perform your magic trick."

"Oh, Mom, Mom did a magic trick!" The two siblings clapped their hands excitedly.

Yunqi could only conjure things from his space for them according to their needs.

The group of people who arrived at the village entrance looked at the lake, which was like a large, transparent mirror, and couldn't help but sigh.

"That's truly spectacular!"

Si Cheng first picked up his pickaxe and forcefully struck the lakeside. The pickaxe went all the way in, but no water came out. He struck it several more times, reaching a depth of 40 centimeters, but still no water appeared.

“This side feels really solid, everyone can step on it without worry. Let’s move forward a little further and then try to make a hole,” Si Cheng said to everyone, looking at the ice layer in front of them.

The group walked a few dozen meters further, but the ice was too slippery. They kept slipping and falling as they walked. Eventually, Si Cheng took the lead and used a steel shovel to create several craters on the ice, which helped them maintain their balance.

"Bring some straw next time, it will be safer to lay it on top, otherwise it will really hurt if you fall." After falling several times, Yun Tao felt like his whole body was about to fall apart.

Seeing that they had walked quite a distance, Si Cheng said to everyone, "Let's try here first, we don't know if there are any fish."
