Chapter 13: On the Eve of Going to the Countryside (I)
No matter how shocked she was, Lu Xiaoxiao still put the boxes one by one into the space bag and put them back into the space. After doing all this, she returned to the study, and turned the puppy to put the bookcase back to its original position.
Lu Xiaoxiao left the study, took a stool and sat under a tree, enjoying the cool breeze to calm herself down. She thought of the original owner's father's letter mentioning that their death was most likely not an accident, but someone was targeting their family. She didn't know what to do next, and she didn't know if this world was the same as her original world, because the original owner was young and didn't know much about this. It seemed that she could only go to the bookstore tomorrow to learn about this world.
Lu Xiaoxiao sat in the yard for a while and felt too cold so she went back to the house. She took out the stove, put coal in it and lit it, then filled a pot of water and put it on the stove. It was still early to go to bed and she didn't know what to do. She suddenly remembered that she had not harvested any food, fruits and vegetables in the space since she discovered it. Although they would not go bad if she didn't harvest them, they would not grow either. In this time of material scarcity, of course the more food the better. Although she had a lot of material things, who could guarantee that such days would not last long?
Lu Xiaoxiao appeared in the front yard of the space with a thought. She smiled foolishly when she saw the yard full of fruits.
She put them all into the warehouse with her mind. She continued to plant grains on the 16 equal parts of land, and changed the other parts to fruits and vegetables that she had never planted before and that she liked. After all, there were already a lot of fruits and vegetables in the warehouse, and she forgot to buy vegetables when she bought materials in her previous life. As for the backyard, she did not touch it. Although she did not recognize the medicinal herbs, she still knew that the older the herbs were, the better the efficacy. After finishing them, she took a bath in the villa and left the space. Now that she had the conditions, it was better to live outside. She had to adapt to the new living environment and could not rely on the space completely.
Lu Xiaoxiao poured a cup of hot water and drank it slowly. She remembered that she had never eaten the malted milk and egg cake that she had stored in the space before, so she took them out and made a cup of it. It tasted different when eaten with the egg cake.
Time passed quickly as she ate and thought about random things. Since she was not hungry at all after drinking malted milk and eating egg cake, she skipped dinner. She added a few pieces of coal into the coal stove and opened the window a little to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning.
Lu Xiaoxiao felt sleepy not long after lying on the bed. Maybe it was because she was still young and slept a lot, so she fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyes.
When she woke up, it was already past nine o'clock the next morning and the coal in the stove had burned out. No wonder she felt a little cold.
She got up and refilled the stove with coal, then put the kettle full of water on it to heat it up. She took advantage of this opportunity to climb onto the bed, fold the quilt and put it into the space. Last night she used the down quilt she bought in her previous life. She didn't plan to use the original owner's quilt anymore, but she still had to take it out and put it on the bed during the day.
After Lu Xiaoxiao prepared the water and boiled it, she went to the well in the yard to pump some water and mixed it with the boiled water to brush her teeth and wash her face.
After she washed up and had a simple breakfast, she went out with her small bag. She had planned to go to the bookstore yesterday. It was getting late now, so she better hurry up and go out.
Lu Xiaoxiao went to the bookstore, found the book she needed and started reading. After about an hour, Lu Xiaoxiao understood this world. The historical trend of the world was the same as that of the world before her rebirth, but the characters that appeared in history were not the same as those in her original world, even the current leaders were different.
