"Boss, let's rest for a while under the shade of the trees up ahead!"
Seeing that the two children looked like they could faint at any moment, Lin Xue felt a pang of pity.
So they stopped the group and found a shady spot to sit down and rest.
"Ahui and Taozi, you two go and look around for any wild vegetables. Eldest brother and second brother, keep an eye on your wives, just in case there's any danger nearby!"
"Third brother, go pick some grass vines over there and weave me a straw hat later. It's so hot today, I'm feeling a bit dizzy from the sun!"
After seeing everyone off, Lin Xue sat down next to the two children.
"Both of you, open your mouths!"
It was so hot that day that Lin Xue's mouth was dry, and she gave her orders, sparing with words.
"ah!"
The two children thought Lin Xue was afraid they would steal food, so they quickly opened their mouths wide for Lin Xue to check.
"Hmm!"
"Oh, Grandma!"
Each child had a hard candy stuffed into their mouth, and they immediately covered their mouths, looking at Lin Xue with disbelief.
"Haven't you ever had candy before? What's the big deal!"
"You're not allowed to spit the candy out. Look how dirty your hands are. If you spit it out, those invisible little bugs on your hands will crawl onto the candy."
"Next time you eat it, the little bugs will be swallowed along with the sugar."
"Don't blame me, your grandma, for being heartless and abandoning you when you get bitten by those little bugs and your stomachs hurt!"
The two children are still young; they definitely won't understand reasoning with you.
However, the two children were particularly tactful when threatened.
This was also the accumulated pressure from the original owner, which made the two children have no intention of resisting at all.
"Okay, Grandma, we won't spit out the candy!"
"Thank you, Grandma!"
Because of a piece of candy, the two children are no longer as afraid of Lin Xue as before.
They sat down on either side of Lin Xue, leaning against her to rest.
The little mouth would occasionally twitch, carefully swallowing the dissolved sugar water.
"Sigh, who knows how much longer these hard times will last!"
Lin Xue sighed in confusion. The original owner's memories only lasted until the moment of her death, so Lin Xue had no idea what happened afterward.
All I can do is take it one step at a time and figure it out as I go.
She didn't bring much with her from the previous world because the system only lent her one cubic meter of space.
She filled the space with gold and silver, as well as some simple weapons, such as machetes, axes, kitchen knives, and daggers.
She had them custom-made; some were made of stainless steel, and others of alloy.
No matter how you cut it or how you use it, it won't have any chips or gaps. It's simple, straightforward, sturdy, and durable!
As for food, Lin Xue only put out some candy, a few bags of biscuits, and two packs of chocolate!
She prepared this food simply to get through the initial difficult period.
To prevent a repeat of the first world, where I was so hungry I felt dizzy and had nothing to eat.
Knowing herself as she does, Lin Xue is certain she will quickly find food to replenish her energy.
So we didn't prepare much food.
Who could have imagined that the second world would be plagued by famine?
Along the way, most of the edible food had been looted by the disaster victims ahead of them, and all they could find were newly sprouted wild vegetables.
Sigh, life is just too hard!
"Mom, we're lucky! We found a lot of wild vegetables this time!"
Although He Ahui said this, she knew in her heart that such a small amount of wild vegetables was not enough to fill everyone's stomachs.
"Let's put it away first!"
Lin Xue glanced at the wild vegetables the two were holding. It must have been some time since the last disaster, because these wild vegetables had grown quite large.
Perhaps the disaster victims who passed by last time didn't look for food in this area, which is why they were able to pick such large wild vegetables.
Wild vegetables grow among weeds and don't get much sunlight, so although they are large, they are not old.
"Third brother, come here!"
Lin Xue glanced again at Li Sangui, who was weaving a straw hat next to her.
"Mother, what do you need me for?"
Upon hearing Lin Xue's call, Li Sangui immediately put down what he was doing and ran over excitedly.
“Look, this dagger was personally made by my butcher father before I got married.”
"I originally kept it for my own self-defense, but now I'm giving it to you. Go and cut some bamboo from nearby!"
Lin Xue took out a dagger from her spatial storage and handed it to Li Sangui.
She had also seen the axe in Li Sangui's hand earlier.
It was worn down beyond recognition, and it seemed that no suitable whetstone had been found along the way, as the blade was almost completely warped.
"Mother, this is a fine knife!"
As soon as Li Sangui got his hands on the knife, he realized that it was definitely no ordinary knife.
The icy blade energy pressed against his hand, making him feel a touch of coolness even in the sweltering summer heat.
"Go quickly and come back quickly!"
Lin Xue urged impatiently, then turned her gaze to her two daughters-in-law.
The two daughters-in-law looked sallow, clearly having suffered a lot on the journey.
In addition, even back in his hometown, the original owner had no shortage of nagging and teasing towards his two daughters-in-law.
It would be strange if his complexion looked good!
"Is the sickle still in the house?"
Lin Xue had already noticed the two sickles in their baskets; they must have brought them from home.
