I still feel very tired, probably because I used too much mental energy just now.
However, upon exploring the space again, small green seedlings could already be seen on the previously dark earth. Han Luoxue looked at them with delight and even saw a notification: Corn, maturity period, eight days.
Wow, this space is amazing! The corn planting experience just mentioned that it normally takes at least three or four months to grow corn outside, but here it only takes a mere eight days.
Does that mean they can survive if they hold out for eight days?
I only planted a small handful, it's a pity there's not enough land.
Han Luoxue looked at the two jin of corn. If she had enough land, wouldn't she be rich?
Well, having this piece of land is not bad. Normally, a square meter of land can't grow many corn plants, but this handful has nearly a hundred stalks.
It's getting late, and the whole family is so hungry they're dizzy.
"Sister, can we have some porridge today?"
The younger sister limped in. Looking at her thin body, Han Luoxue secretly vowed that she would make sure they had enough to eat in a few days.
Wait a minute, she remembered reading in a novel that a spatial spring could cure diseases, and she wondered if hers had that ability.
Han Luoxue walked to the water vat, which was covered with a layer of dust.
However, there is a well in this courtyard. Han Luoxue touched the water vat and said:
"Yu'er, let's move the water tank outside and clean it. Then fetch some more water and gather some firewood. We'll have some thin porridge tonight."
They only have less than two pounds of grain left, so they have to eat it carefully.
Eight days, for a total of four people. Not counting the younger brother, but Mom needed to eat more to breastfeed, as her body was too weak.
It's not a long-term solution for Mother to keep feeding my younger brother his blood. If only we could find a little lamb.
Han Luoxue didn't dare to think too much about it, while her younger sister, though only ten years old, was usually very diligent in her chores. Hearing that there really would be porridge for dinner, she swallowed hard, her mouth watering!
"Okay, I'll listen to my sister."
They dare not hope to be able to eat their fill now; they would be content if they could catch a whiff of grain every three to five days.
The two sisters were carrying the water vat out when suddenly something fell down and landed in the vat with a thud.
The two were startled. Han Luoxue quickly put down the water vat to check, and then...
"Big sister, it's a wild goose..."
My father was a skilled hunter; he had caught geese before, though the chances were slim.
At this moment, the wild goose still had a homemade arrow in its body, which clearly indicated that it had been shot by someone.
I just don't know why it ended up in their water tank.
"I don't know who hit him."
Wild goose, meat! Han Luoyu hadn't eaten meat in ages. Her mouth was watering, and she wished she could pick it up and gnaw on it right now.
Han Luoxue knew that meat was precious now and that the people who hunted geese would definitely come looking for it, but since it had fallen into her hands, there was no reason for her to return it.
She bent down to pick up the goose and instructed, "Mother is almost at her limit. This will help her and your brother recover. Remember, we didn't see anything."
As she spoke, she picked up the goose and ran into the kitchen, rummaged around haphazardly, but actually threw the goose into her spatial storage.
Hmph, nobody will find you here.
After tidying up, she ran out again and lifted the water tank.
"Big sister, what if someone comes looking for us?"
"Did we see anything?"
Han Luoyu's eyes sparkled. Her older sister said she wanted to give their mother some nourishing soup, but surely they could at least have some soup too?
There are still water buckets and a well in this yard, but because someone died in the yard, no one dares to come and take anything.
Did you find any geese?
Just as the two were enthusiastically scrubbing the water tank, a tall, slender figure suddenly entered through the door.
The newcomer was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a slender build. A long, centipede-like scar stretched from the left eyebrow to the right corner of his mouth, giving him a ferocious and terrifying appearance.
His name is Han Yuchen, the son of Han Laoba, and he is also a skilled hunter.
In the village, the father and son were considered to be living a relatively comfortable life.
At least we can eat meat regularly.
Upon seeing Han Yuchen, Han Luoyu was too frightened to look up, while Han Luoxue said blankly:
"What did you say?"
"I just shot down a goose, did you see it?"
Han Yuchen patiently repeated it again, and Han Luoxue shook her head:
"I don't think so. We've been working the whole time, and this water tank is too dirty."
Han Yuchen stepped forward and took a look. Although the yard wasn't small, it could be seen in one glance. There was indeed no sign of any geese, but...
He looked up at the sky, estimated the distance, and concluded that he should have landed here.
"I really wish I could find a goose. You have no idea how long it's been since we've had meat. Sigh, why do people even want to eat meat? I almost got swapped and eaten today."
Han Yuchen looked down at the little girl who was working diligently. She was fair-skinned and thin, but her skin was so white it shone. She didn't look like a villager at all.
The thought of such a vibrant and exquisite life being eaten stirred a pang of reluctance in his usually calm heart.
He didn't say anything, didn't continue looking for the wild geese, and turned and left.
Watching his limping figure, Han Luoxue shook her head. The original owner still had an impression of this person, which was fear and dread.
The scar that ran almost across his entire face terrified the villagers, who dared not look him in the eye. It was said that whenever they saw him, adults and children alike would keep their distance.
But he doesn't seem that scary, does he? And he's actually quite good-looking; it's just that scar ruins his appearance.
