The Ripple of Time in the 50s

After being ambushed and forced to self-destruct, Liu Shile opened her eyes to find herself back in the legendary impoverished era from over a hundred years ago.

Looking at her farm, which ha...

Chapter 3 Undercurrents

She glanced at the person who had slipped away in the chaos and was now lost in the crowd, her expression unreadable.

Watching them is fine, but if you want to lay a hand on them...

She lowered her long, curled eyelashes, preventing anyone from seeing the emotions in her eyes.

...

When Lin Ziming returned to the first-class cabin, he already had a plan in mind.

It seems quite a few people are watching him.

They really think highly of him!

They actually sent so many people just for him!

Their family donated most of their money long ago, but some people still keep targeting them.

His departure by boat should have been very safe, since it was his own boat.

But it seems that his whereabouts are still exposed to others.

It's unclear at what point things went wrong, but he secretly boarded the ship and never left the first-class cabin.

Only that boy brazenly barged in.

But he had just confirmed that the boy was indeed just an ordinary boy.

He lowered his eyes, thinking of the boy's sister; there seemed to be something off about her.

He immediately shook his head, dismissing the thought. How could a young girl like her have any problems?

The plan cannot continue if the ship leaves by water.

Let's disembark at the next stop.

As he was thinking this, he saw the ashamed look on the face of his attendant, Junzi.

"Young Master, I'm sorry, I've caused you trouble."

"It's alright, just don't be so impulsive in the future."

He waved his hand, not blaming Junzi, as Junzi had acted just now for his safety.

Seeing that the young master really didn't blame him, Junzi quickly nodded in agreement and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the young master still trusts him so far, which is good.

Lin Ziming originally wanted Junzi to prepare so that they could disembark at the next stop.

But suddenly, something occurred to him, and he didn't speak. Instead, he closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

Meanwhile, in a secluded corner of the cabin, two people were talking in hushed tones.

If Liu Shile were here, she would definitely recognize these two people.

One was a lean man on the deck, and the other was an ordinary-looking man who had left their cabin earlier.

"In that case, for safety's sake, find an opportunity to sink them."

When the lean man said this, his tone was calm and even, without the slightest fluctuation, as if he were asking an acquaintance if they had eaten breakfast.

"Yes!" the man replied in a low voice and left quickly, then returned to his cabin as if nothing had happened.

The boat swayed gently on the turbulent river.

Liu Shile, who was taking a break to tend to the farm, raised an eyebrow slightly.

She keenly sensed a deep malice emanating from others.

She casually raised her head and curiously looked at the passengers in the cabin.

Upon seeing the ordinary-looking man who could easily be lost in a crowd, he quickly averted his gaze.

Liu Shile continued to observe everything on the ship with a curious expression.

After a long while, she finally looked away.

Then, she tugged at Liu Shihua, who was sitting in her seat.

"Second brother, I'm tired. Let me sit for a while."

Upon hearing this, Liu Shihua immediately tried to stand up, but his sister was pressing down on one of his shoulders, preventing him from getting up.

He looked at his sister, completely bewildered, with no idea what she was up to.

Liu Shile pretended to pull her older brother, quickly and quietly telling him not to wander off before getting off the boat.

She could clearly see that the man's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

She wasn't afraid of anyone wanting to kill her, but she was worried about her second brother.

After all, it's hard to find a brother who loves his sister so much.

After her time travel, her luck seemed to improve.

She's gotten such a wonderful brother who dotes on his sister.

For the sake of this pure and unadulterated affection, she also had to protect her second brother.

Liu Shihua is indeed kind and simple, but she is also truly intelligent.

Although he didn't know why his sister suddenly gave him such instructions, he still kept them in mind.

And they subtly increased their vigilance.

However, not long after, his stomach started rumbling.

"Lele, are you hungry? Your second brother has some steamed rice cakes here, why don't you eat some to fill your stomach?"

Feeling hungry, Liu Shihua blushed slightly, feeling a little embarrassed.

However, the first thing she thought of was whether her younger sister was also hungry, and as she spoke, she prepared to take out some steamed rice cakes from her bag.

The older sister secretly slipped this rice cake to him when they left.

Thinking of her older sister's worried eyes when she left, Liu Shihua closed her eyes tightly.

He slowly opened his eyes after calming down, not wanting his younger sister to worry about her older sister along with him.

Thinking about the conversation he overheard between his mother and father that day, he felt a pang of sadness.

So many unexpected events happened in our family in such a short time, and a lot of money was spent, so life has indeed become difficult.

But his mother's desire to marry his eldest sister off to a rural family left him speechless.

My older sister has never done farm work since she was a child. If she marries into a rural family, will she be able to adapt?

Although Mom is right, there is a lot of land in the countryside, but farm work is also very hard.

What's more, Mom wanted my eldest sister to start bringing grain home after she settled into her husband's family!

Although he was young, he knew that if his older sister really did that, her situation in her husband's family would be very bad!

Although his father never hit women, he had seen many men beat their wives.

He didn't want his eldest sister, who had raised her younger siblings since childhood, to suffer like that in the future.

So when his younger sister suggested that she go out to earn money to pay for her tuition, he tried his best to go out with her.

Firstly, he was genuinely worried about his sister going out alone and wanted to follow her to protect her.

Secondly, he also wanted to earn more money to give back to his mother.

That way, Mom wouldn't marry my eldest sister off to the countryside just to get food.

In this way, he and his sister can continue their schooling.

In this way, Mom and Dad can focus on recovering and taking care of their health.

If Liu Shile knew what her second brother was thinking, she would only say that he was too naive.

In fact, the family has quite a lot of money. As long as they don't spend it extravagantly, it's more than enough to support their children's schooling.

Unfortunately, their mother was unwilling to use it, especially not to use it to send the two siblings to school.

Although Liu Shile didn't know why her mother was doing this, she didn't expose her.

Anyway, she needed an excuse to get out and about.

She wanted to take this opportunity to collect more plants and seeds, and even some livestock.

When she woke up in this world, the farm was still there, but her level was reset to zero.

Apart from the luxurious villa I got at level 200, the rest of the place was desolate.

Furthermore, due to level restrictions, the number of seeds available in the system shop is extremely limited.

From what she observed, everything in this world seemed normal.

Therefore, seeds, livestock, plants, and other items can be brought into the farm for planting.

As for the system that had unexpectedly leveled up and even assigned her a task, she was quite speechless.
