Chapter 33 A Perfect Match of Cats and Dogs
Jinran brought Doujin up the mountain with her. Doujin is now a half-grown puppy with endless energy and is incredibly clever.
Even Grandpa Shen said, "Nini's dog is truly a descendant of the King of Dogs. I once saw it wandering around to other people's houses to mooch a meal. After finishing at one house, it would go to the next one. The key is that it actually succeeded. At that time, every house had something good, but they were all willing to give it to it. That's quite a skill."
Jinran scolded Doujin for his lack of self-control: "Look at you, I haven't skimped on your appetite at all, why are you so greedy?"
"Woof woof~~" Human, you don't understand, I call this connecting with my pet.
Jinran: "How could there be such a shameless dog?"
Jinran has been scouting the mountain for days, looking for good things in different places. Some things are ripe, so she puts them into her space. Others are not yet ripe, so she estimates the time and plans to stock up on them when they come to fruition.
Just thinking about it makes me happy.
Perhaps because she grew up in an orphanage, she always unconsciously wanted to hoard things, especially food; it had become an obsession. This made her feel safe and secure; even if she didn't eat it, she had to have it.
Hmm... I'll put this firewood in my spatial storage first. When I mix it into my own woodpile, it won't stand out.
There were also these wild vegetables. She had gone quite deep into the mountains. Mushrooms and wild vegetables were everywhere, as well as some Chinese medicinal herbs.
Jinran also recognized a few simple herbs. In her previous life, she had helped the orphanage director collect them, mainly for the children. She knew a few herbs for things like colds, flu, and anti-inflammatory and hemostatic herbs. They didn't have much money, but these herbs could help when the children were sick.
Jinran saw them and collected them, but then... she finally remembered what she had forgotten—the scrap metal recycling station.
This is a must-visit place for time-traveling heroines. They can easily acquire jade and antiques, and they'll also check if there are any medical books about herbs.
They took it all.
But then I thought, she's still too young. If she wants to go to the county, she'll have to go with her parents. We'll find another opportunity then.
Doujin came back huffing and puffing, barking arrogantly twice, "Woof woof~~" Human, I've found out, it has to be me again, what will you do without me!
Jinran said, "...There's no need for such self-praise."
She followed Doujin to see what it had discovered.
Hey~ You know what, it's really something, a whole field of wild sunflowers. Some aren't fully ripe yet, but they've already got seeds, which is really nice.
Mark this down.
Just imagining sitting on a warm, heated kang (traditional heated brick bed), eating frozen pears and melon seeds, sounds so cozy. All that's missing from a truly blissful life is frozen pears.
She checked the time, found two rabbits in her spatial storage, put them in her basket, and headed back. Once her house was built and many things on the mountain were ripe, it would be time for her to show off her skills.
"Doujin, you're a hero today, here's a jar as a reward."
"Woof woof~~" Isn't that what we should do!
Jinran took a break, and after opening the jar, she watched Doujin munching on his food.
"Meow~ Meow~~"
"Doujin, did you hear that?"
Dou Jin was completely absorbed in food and didn't reply.
"Meow~ Meow~~ Meow"
She was sure she hadn't misheard, so she got up and went to the source of the sound, where she saw a newborn creature that looked like a kitten meowing.
But isn't it a bit out of place for a cat all white to appear here?
Jinran looked around but couldn't find any trace of the kitten's mother. It seemed the kitten had been abandoned.
Jinran had heard from the headmistress that animals with white fur cannot survive in the jungle. They are usually abandoned by their mothers.
At that moment, she thought, "It seems that humans and animals are not so different; both have mothers who abandon their children."
Jinran looked at the meowing kitten and felt a pang of pity, as if she were seeing herself in that time.
She reached out and picked up the kitten. Surprisingly, the little thing was very affectionate towards Jinran, rubbing against her hand and stopping meowing.
Jinran found kitten formula in her space, mixed it with seawater diluted countless times, and fed it to the kitten.
The kitten was drinking with slurping sounds; it seemed to be starving.
"Woof woof~~" Human, who is this?
Jinran checked the kitten's gender; it was a girl. "It's a little sister, and she'll be a member of our family from now on. Hehe... I'll have both a cat and a dog now."
