Ganli wanted to ask more questions, but Maria didn't give her the chance. She said she wanted to go back to sleep and then disappeared with a "whoosh".
She felt somewhat helpless, but there was nothing she could do. She could only comfort herself in her heart—it's okay. Even if she had transmigrated into a book, judging from the current situation, she should just be an insignificant passerby.
Didn't that plump lychee just say that the female lead is a million miles away? As a noble female lead, unless she's out of her mind, she definitely wouldn't travel all that way to this remote mountain village to cause trouble for a nobody like her.
It's not a big problem.
After reaching this conclusion, Ganli put the matter aside, since she had more important things to do now, which was to make money.
Although she knew how to upgrade the mall, where could she find so many people in need of help in such a short time? In order not to starve to death, she still had to find a way to make money first.
Even though Fatty Lychee had just told her not to daydream, Ganli still decided to go up the mountain.
Even if you can't find ginseng or lingzhi, you can still look for opportunities to make money.
Having made up her mind, she planned to get some sleep first and be well-rested before heading up the mountain. However, just as she was about to leave the mall, she passed by a small house and saw the soft, large bed inside, and she suddenly found herself unable to move.
Outside was a damp thatched hut, inside a comfortable Simmons mattress… Without hesitation, she quickly lay down on the bed, the softness beneath her making her sigh with pleasure. However, thinking of the sweetness of sleeping on the kang (heated brick bed), she suddenly felt a pang of guilt.
Didn't they say that some spaces allow you to bring others in? Gan Li doesn't plan to expose her space for the time being, but Gan Tian is sleeping soundly right now. As long as she sends the person out before Gan Tian wakes up, there shouldn't be any problems, right?
As Ganli thought this, she tried to bring Gantian into the space, but as soon as she had this idea, she heard a piercing alarm sound in her ear.
[WARNING! WARNING! This space is not permitted to be entered by anyone other than the host!]
Ganli was startled and quickly dismissed the thought, at which point the shrill sound stopped.
It wasn't that she was only thinking of her own enjoyment; she simply had no other choice.
As for her going out to sleep on the kang with Gan Tian? Sorry, Gan Li isn't the type to endure hardship without suffering, and she really doesn't want to do something that harms herself and others.
After trying the sweet treat and finding it impossible to penetrate, she let go of her mental burden and fell into a deep sleep on the soft bed.
...
When Gan Tian got up, Gan Li had already heated up the porridge she had cooked the night before.
Although it's already summer, it rained last night, and since we're at the foot of the mountain, the temperature is naturally lower than usual, so the porridge didn't spoil.
The mother and daughter discussed what to do next while eating porridge.
Ganli originally planned to go up the mountain today, but then she thought that it had rained last night and the mountain road must be muddy and difficult to walk on.
Since they've just moved here, they're still lacking many things for daily life. It would be better to buy them today and hire someone to repair the roof so it won't leak again next time.
Gan Tian naturally had no objection to this, only saying, "I will do whatever Mother says!"
After finishing their meal, the mother and daughter set off.
Gan Li remembered that there were oxcarts in the village that went to the town. Sure enough, when she arrived at the village entrance, she saw an oxcart parked on the side. The driver was the village chief's son, named Gan Qishan.
In this village, most people with the surname Gan are related by blood or marriage. Gan Qishan and Gan Li are of the same generation. Gan Li greeted him with a smile: "Brother Qishan! Are you leaving now?"
When Gan Qishan heard someone calling him, he turned around and recognized Gan Li, and his face showed some surprise.
This little girl, she used to always keep her head down and not say a word when she saw people, never giving them a friendly look. Today she seems like a completely different person?
However, since they greeted him, he had no reason not to, so he happily replied, saying:
"Are you going to town? If you're not in a hurry, wait a bit, I'll pick up two more people."
He had finished his work in the fields long ago, and now that he had nothing to do, he started pulling oxcarts again. He charged two coins per person, and if he pulled a few more people at a time, he could earn more money on the round trip.
Today wasn't market day, so there were hardly any people around. It wouldn't be worthwhile to take just one person along, so Gan Qishan decided to wait a bit longer.
Ganli understood his thoughts. She looked around; the oxcart wasn't big, it could only seat five or six people at most. So she said:
“I happen to need to buy some things today, and I’ll need some space to bring them back later… How about this, Brother Qishan, I’ll give you thirty coins, and I’ll consider this the car rental. What do you say?”
Gan Qishan was delighted to hear this. He had no reason not to take advantage of such a business opportunity. He was very happy to hear that Gan Li wanted to charter the car, but he wasn't that cunning. He said, "Thirty coins is too much. Just give me twenty coins."
Ganli replied, "This thirty coins isn't just for the carriage; we've bought a lot of things, so we might need your help carrying some..."
"It's nothing, just moving some things, only twenty coins!"
After much back and forth, Gan Li, seeing Gan Qishan's resolute attitude, had no choice but to agree in order not to waste time, keeping the favor in her heart.
The oxcart started moving slowly. Ganli pulled Gantian onto the oxcart, but she was thinking about something else.
"Brother Qishan, is your uncle free lately?"
“I’m free. I’ve finished working in the fields, and I don’t have much to do right now. What’s up? Do you have something to do?” Gan Qishan asked casually.
"Yes, something's come up." Gan Li nodded and said, "I've divorced the man surnamed Chen, and my household registration has been moved out. My parents have also broken my heart and refuse to let me register my household there. So I was thinking of asking my uncle how to register a daughter's household?"
In fact, Gan Qishan had also heard about Gan Li's divorce.
Yesterday, two young girls were fighting over a fish. Gan Li announced her divorce in front of so many people, and the news spread quickly, even reaching Gan Qishan.
He was somewhat skeptical at the time, but now that Gan Li has said it herself, he dares to believe it's true.
Gan Li's infatuation with Chen Danian was well-known throughout Yuxi Village. So when Gan Qishan suddenly heard that the two had divorced, he was quite curious.
However, he wasn't the type to gossip and didn't pry into her private affairs, so he only answered her questions:
“Establishing a household with a woman? That might be a bit difficult... I don’t know the specifics either. Why don’t you go back and ask your uncle yourself? He’s been home these days.”
Gan Li told Gan Qishan about this matter, originally intending for him to first inform the village chief so that she could visit him later.
Having achieved his goal, he said no more.
