Gone in seconds?
The mall has plenty of fruit...
Yue Jiuyue didn't understand why, and out of curiosity, she picked some wild fruits and hung them up to sell, but they sold out in seconds again.
Yue Jiuyue: (???????)
Something just doesn't feel right...
Could it be related to the world before I traveled here?
She lived in the modern world before she traveled through time, so the items sold in the mall are all from the modern era?
So, which era did the person who traveled from ancient times go to? Why is there a shortage of fruit? Otherwise, why did all the fruit she hung up disappear in seconds?
These are all just Yue Jiuyue's guesses.
It doesn't matter what's sold in the store, or whether it sells out instantly, since she buys more things than she sells now; she's just constantly using the system space.
She didn't know if she would continue to time travel after she died this time. In fact, she didn't want to be one of the many time travelers. She didn't like this feeling of being "different". She would rather be reincarnated and get to know a new world.
Thinking about this, she suddenly felt that her life was probably coming to an end. She was almost forty years old now. In ancient times, people had short lifespans. Not many people could live to be seventy or eighty. People over fifty years old could exempt one person in their family from corvée labor, and the state would also give them rewards. It was clear that living to fifty was not easy.
Yue Jiuyue rested her chin on her hands, looking at the pink lotus flowers swaying in the wind in the courtyard, and suddenly wanted to eat a fruit ice bowl.
While she's still alive and in good health, she should eat and drink as she pleases, lest one day she suddenly loses her appetite or can't eat anything at all, which would be such a loss for her!
However, she could eat, but she couldn't let anyone see her, lest they go and tattle on her to Lin Chaonan. She didn't want to be nagged about.
Ice bowls are so refreshing!
Cool to the bone, feeling soaring!
"Mother! Mother! Mother!"
Yue Jiuyue was eating her iced bowl when she suddenly heard Lin Chaonan call her, and she almost choked on the fruit in her bowl.
Why can't I stop nagging? I only complained to myself for a moment, and he appeared?
First, destroy the body and cover up the evidence.
After putting away the ice bowl and taking a yellow peach from the table to eat, Lin Chaonan appeared at the courtyard gate.
"Mother! I've found out news about Second Brother!"
Lin Chaonan's eyes were red, and tears were rolling in his eyes, but they did not fall.
"What?"
Yue Jiuyue stood up abruptly.
She didn't realize that she had made a hoarse voice, and her trembling hands caused the peach in her hand to fall to the ground and roll under the table without her noticing.
Has there finally been news about his second brother, Lin Chaoxi?
Does the sudden news about Lin Chaoxi mean he's coming back?
Yue Jiuyue's lips trembled, unable to utter the questions she wanted to ask, as if she had suddenly lost her voice.
"Mother, there's news about Second Brother! I heard he's in the army returning to the capital. He'll be back after the emperor rewards those who have rendered meritorious service! I wonder where they are now, and when he'll be back. Oh, right, we need to have someone clean and tidy up his courtyard. Mother, Mother, what else do we need to do? I can't think of anything right now."
Lin Chaonan was so excited that he was almost incoherent.
"I don't know either, my mind is a bit blank."
She was truly stunned; the original owner's second son was coming back!
The original owner never received news of her second son in her previous life, but unexpectedly, she finally got to hear from him.
"Find that person, who's in charge again? Tell the person in charge to make the preparations!"
Yue Jiuyue couldn't even remember the name of the person in charge of the household; she was just too excited.
Lin Chaoxi is still alive!
Hahahaha!
So happy! So joyful! So blissful!
"Waaaaah..."
After laughing, Yue Jiuyue still couldn't help but cry.
She didn't know why she was crying, even though she was actually very happy.
But deep down, I felt an intense emotion that needed to be released, and the way to release it was through crying and shedding tears.
"Mother, don't cry. We have news of Second Brother. He's coming back! That's great news!"
Lin Chaonan gently patted Yue Jiuyue's back, coaxing her softly.
Actually, he wanted to cry too, but he just kept holding it in.
He almost couldn't hold back when he saw Yue Jiuyue crying.
"Yes, yes, yes! I know it's a good thing, and I didn't want to cry."
She really didn't want to cry; she was genuinely happy!
There's news about Lin Chaoxi!
Lin Chaoxi is coming back soon!
The news quickly spread throughout the Lin family and then throughout the entire Linjiagou Village.
Some are happy, some are sad.
In the years leading up to the natural disaster, many villagers went to serve in the military each year. Some kept sending word back; some, like Lin Chaoxi before them, disappeared without a trace once they left; some returned after completing their service, though they might have scars or be missing parts of their bodies; some returned only with a compensation payment…
Because of the natural disaster, not every household was complete, and in the past two years, no one in any family has been serving in the military, which has made people miss their relatives who have gone to serve in the military much less.
Now that news of Lin Chaoxi has suddenly arrived, everyone's longing for him has intensified. Those who had served in the military and had not been heard from since have all gone out to inquire about him.
Perhaps the next message to come back will be from their children and grandchildren?
Dongling is bustling again. This time, the bustling activity is not because the children are going to school in Dongling, but because everyone is going to clear out Lin Chaoxi's yard, clean it up, renovate it, and prepare everything that needs to be prepared and everything that doesn't need to be prepared.
