When Qin Mo woke up, he felt refreshed. His body could withstand the ravages of continuous exertion, but his spirit was not. He was not a veteran and had not experienced large-scale, non-stop warfare, so his ability to cope with mental stress was somewhat lacking. He had walked alone on the snowfield for more than ten days, and his spirit was already slightly exhausted.
Stretching after getting up, Qin Mo pushed open the wooden door of the cabin. A gust of snow swept in, and Qin Mo quickly swept the snow out the door. Looking around, she saw that the snow outside had increased by more than half a foot overnight, and in some corners where snow easily accumulated, it was already half a person's height.
"What a strange atmosphere." Qin Mo muttered as she started shoveling snow. Otherwise, the snow would soon block the doorway, and the roof also needed to be cleared, otherwise the thick snow would collapse the wooden house.
The old carriage wasn't covered in snow, except that half of the wheels were submerged. A copper bowl and a wine bottle on the carriage shaft were covered in snow, forming two snowdrifts. Qin Mo smiled and walked over. "Sigh... what a strong-willed girl!" Although she was veiled and her face couldn't be seen, her voice betrayed her age.
Qin Mo reached for the copper bowl and wine bottle, intending to go back inside and heat them up for herself. But as soon as she touched the bottle, it felt surprisingly light. Qin Mo exclaimed, "Eh!" and then noticed a box neatly placed beneath the bottle.
He casually stuffed the empty wine bottle into his pocket, then carefully picked up the box. Back inside, he opened it and found it filled with raisins, a vibrant green color, shaped like pearls. He popped one into his mouth, trying to taste the difference between it and the real raisins. After chewing for a while, he had to admit that compared to the real raisins, his homemade raisins were just a knock-off.
The sugar extraction technology in Daxia is relatively backward, resulting in very high prices. Therefore, various sweets and dried fruits in Daxia are considered top-quality items for wealthy families to serve guests. The box of raisins that Danfengyan gave her was clearly from Xinjiang, and the long journey alone greatly increased its value.
Qin Mo chuckled inwardly; this woman wasn't going to take advantage of someone for no reason. She had to admit, this woman with the fierce look in her phoenix eyes was incredibly strong and self-reliant—a true powerhouse on Earth.
