Lian Xiaomin knew as soon as she heard it that her aunt's family was also going to run out of food. She hadn't expected that life here was also so difficult. They also had to rely on digging wild vegetables to survive. It was good enough that there was still some cornmeal at home.
She said to her aunt, "Aunt, before I came here, a truck driver was kind enough to give me a small basket of carrots. He put them under the little girl's body with some clothes. I'll bring them to you and give them to your family!"
With that, Lian Xiaomin turned around and ran back to the house, took out the prepared carrots and the bamboo basket, and stuffed them into Lian Qiuping's arms.
Lian Qiuping looked at the at least a dozen juicy big carrots and was so surprised that she was speechless for a long time. She looked at Lian Xiaomin with emotion and nodded.
"Thank you, Xiaomin. We are really out of food right now. We have nothing to eat and we will be out of food soon. These carrots are really good!"
Lian Xiaomin added: "Aunt, tell my uncle to find a way to buy some food after we exchange the ginseng for money."
Lian Qiuping nodded: "Okay, let him try, I don't know if he can buy it, there is no food anywhere now, alas."
Lian Xiaomin returned to the room, took Xiaofu out of the bed, changed his diaper, and then put him back into the bed to continue sleeping.
It’s still early. I looked at the watch in the space and it’s only around 5 o’clock.
I changed Xiaoya's diaper again. She didn't wake up during the whole process and slept soundly.
Ever since Lian Xiaomin came to this time and space yesterday, Xiaoya has started drinking milk powder and no longer cries because of hunger. The four-month-old baby always falls asleep after eating.
Lian Xiaomin plans to use diapers for Xiaoya when no one is around in the future. This will save trouble and the baby will be more comfortable.
In her previous life, she was a 33-year-old single DINK who had never taken care of a child, but now she is a 13-year-old girl who is good at farm work and taking care of children. Well, let's make a seamless transition.
My aunt is usually busy with family affairs, especially during the autumn harvest, when everyone is very busy and goes out early and comes back late.
The other people in the Li family will not pay too much attention to Xiaoya and Xiaofu. After all, they are not blood relatives and they will not be that close. Lian Xiaomin thinks that it will be enough to pay more attention to them in normal times. Everything will be more convenient when they have their own house in the future.
Lian Xiaomin lay down on the kang again and continued to doze off. It was still dark outside and there was nothing to do if she got up.
The kangs in Northeast China are really hard. The first day I slept on them, my back and waist ached and I started to doubt my life.
Lian Xiaomin was originally from the Northeast in her previous life. She only remembers sleeping on a kang a few times when she was very young at her relatives' house. She never expected that after so many years, she would be sleeping on a kang again. Her life would be like this from now on.
Xiaoya and Xiaofu were sleeping soundly beside them, and even Xiaomin fell asleep while thinking.
When she woke up again, it was already bright outside. Lian Xiaomin looked at the watch and saw that it was already past 9 am and it was time to get up.
She tilted her head and saw Xiaofu beside her also looking at her with his head tilted. His little head was resting on her shoulder, and he raised his little face to stare at his sister blankly, no one knew what he was thinking.
A child this young is actually very simple. He has no concept of many things and doesn't think about where the food his sister gives him comes from. He just wants to have delicious food and not be hungry anymore.
Lian Xiaomin reached out and gently pinched Xiaofu's little face, and said to him: "Xiaofu, you're awake, are you hungry?"
"Eat eggs, rice porridge, and knots~" Xiaofu's baby voice rang in my ears.
Lian Xiaomin leaned over and gave Xiaofu two kisses on the face. She sat up, picked up Xiaofu, put clothes on him, and took him to wash his face.
Everyone in the Li family went to work, and there were no outsiders at home, even Xiao Feng'er had been taken away.
After washing Xiaofu's face, she also washed herself and took him back to the house.
You still have to eat inside with the door closed, so be careful.
He took Xiaofu to sit on the kang, took out a small folding table from the space, and opened it and set it up.
Take out a lunch box of rice porridge and two tea eggs, and use a spoon to feed Xiaofu breakfast.
Xiaofu was so happy that he finally got to eat the eggs. He ate each bite of egg and porridge sweetly.
I made another bottle of milk for Xiaofu, and he drank it all in a short while.
Lian Xiaomin took out two buns and ate them. After a while, she saw Xiaoya was awake, so she held her in her arms, fed her some warm water with a bottle, and then fed her milk.
Lian Xiaomin spent the whole morning taking care of the two little kids and didn't do anything else. Her body was still tired and she didn't want to do anything. She didn't even get off the bed. She needed a good rest.
Anyway, there is no one at home, just two little guys who don’t know anything, hehe.
Lian Xiaomin used her consciousness to look through the chest of drawers in the study room, found a powerful pill, and took one. She planned to take it for three days to increase her strength. If she didn't use this kind of thing now, when would she use it?
Living in this era in the future, I will be the support of these two little kids in front of me, but I am only 13 years old. They must depend on me every day and cannot leave my side. If I want to protect them, I need to be strong, otherwise I will be exhausted.
After eating, Xiaofu sat there obediently, leaning against the wall, playing with a small ball that Lian Xiaomin found from the space.
He especially liked this little ball and would laugh happily every once in a while.
After playing for a while, Xiaofu crawled to Xiaoya again, pointed at the small clothes on Xiaoya and said to Lian Xiaomin: "Jiejie, wear it too~"
Lian Xiaomin changed Xiaoya into new baby clothes, and Xiaofu was wearing old clothes, but they were washed in the washing machine last night.
She said to Xiaofu, "Xiaofu, do you want to wear new clothes too? See your sister is wearing them, right? I'll give Xiaofu new clothes in a few days!"
Lian Xiaomin pinched Xiaofu's little hand. Xiaofu blinked his eyes and nodded heavily: "Yes! I will wear it in the future."
After dinner, Lian Xiaomin put the lunch boxes and other things into the space, and took out a toy wooden pony for Xiaofu to play with. While watching Xiaoya, she tidied the space with her mind.
Her consciousness was in the room of the villa, sorting out some things she bought from the mall.
I opened a few boxes and took out a few Rolex and Omega watches that I bought in that mall on the last day before I traveled through time. I thought that these watches would be my last gift before I left 2023.
She had already taken one of the Omega watches with a blue dial and used it. Yesterday, she discovered that the time on the clock in this space was the same as that in 1968.
There is an old-fashioned table clock in the main room of her aunt's house. She looked at it and found that it was consistent with her own watch. She didn't even need to adjust the clock anymore. It was amazing.
However, she didn't dare wear her watch outside, so she put it on the bedside table in her bedroom. She could just use her mind to check the time when needed.
Suddenly I remembered that I still have a cheap watch that I bought for 8,000 yuan at that wholesale market. I bought all of them from that shop in that outdated era.
Later you can take it to the county town and try to sell a few watches for money.
