Chapter 28



Ever since he knew that the system had a wife, Lu Changge never let it return to his consciousness.

After all, whether the system is in the mind or not does not affect their conversation.

Let’s talk about the wife of the system - the planting sign-in system.

Li Tugen's planting system is indeed quite practical.

After a week, after he worked day and night to plant, Li Tugen had paid back the 100 points he had borrowed from the system.

Now, Li Tugen works hard to earn points in order to pay for his grandfather's medical treatment.

And make money to improve life.

However, after knowing that Uncle Lu wanted to buy something from his system, Li Tugen still directly used his remaining points to buy it.

Not only that, he would give some of the vegetables he grew every day to Uncle Lu.

Li Tugen was using the system to grow vegetables and make money. Apart from visiting occasionally, Lu Changge was busy at home the rest of the time.

Now that there was no work to do on the land and in the vegetable garden, Lu Changge began to prepare the food supplies for his family.

Before, whenever he bought something, he would install whatever he saw into the system space and storage.

However, after a few days, Lu Changge had forgotten what he had bought.

Taking advantage of the time now, Lu Changge plans to sort them all out.

The door was closed and Dahei lay outside to guard it.

Lu Changge took out all the things in the system space.

Most of the items in the system space are rewards obtained by signing in, as well as some non-edible items that cannot be placed in the storage.

After signing in for more than a hundred days in a row, those scattered rewards accumulated to be a lot.

Once the things were taken out, they filled up half the yard.

This pile of things can be roughly divided into several categories.

Staple food, pickled vegetables, vegetarian dishes, various condiments, and fruits.

As well as Xiaotuanzi’s favorite snacks and some drinks.

Finally, there are cooked foods in bottles and cans, all of which are used to mix with rice.

Among the pile of things, little Dumpling immediately spotted the colorfully packaged candies.

"Wow! There are so many candies!" Little Dumpling ran excitedly to flip through the candies.

Seeing so many foods that he had never seen before, Su Qingyun on the side was also aroused by curiosity.

"Husband, when did you buy these things? I haven't seen many of them before." Su Qingyun walked closer to take a look.

"It's been a long time." Lu Changge said.

As for the existence of the system, he did not mention it.

As with his origins, Lu Changge planned to confess everything later.

Now is not the time.

After taking out the things, start organizing them.

Da Teng and Er Teng also came over to help.

Among this pile of things, rice is the most, followed by flour.

After all, there is rice in the daily sign-in rewards.

Lu Changge asked Er Teng to pick out the rice and flour and put them in a separate pile.

In the end, the amount of rice obtained by signing in was almost 260 kilograms, and the amount of flour was less, only 70 kilograms.

After the inventory, Lu Changge first put the rice and flour into the storage container.

In addition to rice and flour, staple foods also include various noodles, vermicelli, and prepared steamed buns and dumplings.

There were 21 bundles of noodles and vermicelli in total.

There are 13 boxes of ready-to-eat buns and dumplings.

After counting the staple foods, the next thing to come is the various raw and cooked meats.

Lu Changge was counting things while Xiaotuanzi was looking for something delicious.

There are all kinds of candies, including round, square, triangular, star-shaped, and even dog and rabbit patterns.

The bag containing the candy is also beautiful and shiny.

Little Tuanzi was already dazzled by the selection and her eyes were curved into little crescents with joy.

"Wow! Happy birthday, Mom! Big candies!" Little Dumpling raised a big rabbit lollipop in both hands and shouted excitedly.

This bunny head lollipop was taken out from a pile of candies by Little Tuanzi with great effort. It is almost as big as his head.

Su Qingyun heard the voice and looked over, and saw Tuanzi smiling happily.

He smiled and praised: "Tuanzi found such a big candy, it's great!"

After receiving praise from his father, the little boy called him daddy again.

"Daddy, look!"

"Well, the dumplings are great." Lu Changge looked up and complimented them politely.

After receiving praise from his father and mother, Little Tuanzi went to find Da Teng and Er Teng with his rabbit lollipop.

After showing off, Tuanzi took the lollipop directly into his room.

Then he ran out and continued searching.

It took three hours to count everything.

Meat is divided into raw and cooked food.

The raw food included chicken, duck, pork, beef and mutton, totaling 52 kilograms.

The prepared food includes boxed roast duck, various brined meats, and beef jerky, totaling 12 boxes.

There are more vegetarian dishes.

There are various vegetables, fruits, soy products, and different varieties of mushrooms and fungus.

If you only eat these, it's enough to last for two months.

And seasonings.

The basic ingredients like oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, sugar, chili, onion, ginger, garlic, etc. are all available.

There was less fruit, and after searching through it all, it could only fill two baskets.

Some fruits even have only one.

However, Lu Changge's storage device contains more than 400 apples.

There are large grape vines, so you can eat unlimited amounts of them all year round.

Finally, all that was left were Tuanzi's favorite snacks, as well as various dairy products and fruit drinks.

"Wow! So many..." The little dumpling ran around the pile of snacks that were distributed to him, running so fast with small steps.

After counting and putting away the things, Lu Changge walked over, squatted down, and grabbed the little dumpling who was running over.

"Pick two and take them back to the house. Daddy will put the rest away."

"Ah? It's not wide so I can take them all?" The little dumpling, who had been smiling, suddenly lost his smile.

"Can't."

"Hmm..." The little girl pouted, looking a little unhappy.

Er Teng, who was opening the spicy strips packaging bag, also spoke up to persuade them.

[My dear little master, it is safer to keep these things with your father. If you want to eat them, you can ask your father for them. If you leave them in the house, rats and cockroaches may steal them. Others may even climb over the wall and steal them...]

"Ah?! Really?" Little Dumpling was shocked, but still a little hesitant.

[That must be true. Believe it or not, I can finish all of these things in less than two days...] After saying this, Er Teng realized that he had let the cat out of the bag.

Er Teng grabbed the spicy noodle in his hand and carefully prepared to slip away, [Uh...you guys continue, just pretend I didn't say anything.]

"Daddy, put it away quickly! I won't give you two seconds to finish it." The little dumpling said nervously.

Lu Changge stretched out his hand and took the spicy strips from him.

Just as I was about to say something, I smelled a fragrant and spicy scent.

"What is this?" Lu Changge looked down, and the little dumpling next to him was also attracted by the smell.

Lu Changge had never eaten spicy strips, but Er Teng knew that, so he started to think about it.

[This is called junk food, a very unhealthy snack. Many adults forbid their children to eat it. Master, please let me handle it...]

After saying this, Er Teng quietly looked up at his master.

Then, it saw its owner staring at it expressionlessly.

The leaves on Er Teng's head trembled in fear and then fell off.

“Children can’t eat it?”

[Yes...yes.] Er Teng stuttered.

"Oh." Lu Changge nodded.

That's okay, he's not a child.

Lu Changge took out a spicy strip and put it directly into his mouth. As soon as he chewed it, the spicy oil burst in his mouth.

Then, he took another one.

"Daddy, is this okay?" Tuanzi looked at his daddy eagerly.

He sniffed hard with his little nose, making saliva flow from the corners of his mouth.

"It's not tasty." Lu Changge answered and ate another one.

"Really?" Little Tuanzi looked at his father eating one after another, somewhat unconvinced.

"Really? If you don't believe me, ask Er Teng." Lu Changge said while eating.

After hearing what his father said, the little girl turned to look at Er Teng, hoping to get a different answer from Er Er.

Seeing the expectant look in the eyes of his little master, Er Teng burst into tears. [It’s true. This doesn’t taste good at all. If you eat too much, you’ll get sick. If you get sick, you’ll have to take very bitter medicine…]

"Take medicine?" When the little girl heard that she had to take medicine, she looked at her father nervously, "Daddy, don't do it again, I will have to take medicine if I do it again!"

"It's okay, Daddy is an adult and won't get sick." Lu Changge said as he finished the last spicy strip.

Seeing that the spicy strips had been eaten by its owner, Er Teng felt resentful.

The master actually lied to the young master, how shameless!

After finishing the meal, Lu Changge still felt a little unsatisfied.

I have to say, this junk food is really delicious.

"Ni Teng, go and see if there are any more?"

[No, I only found this one.] Er Teng said with resentment.

This entire packet was eaten by the owner alone.

Hearing Er Teng's words, a hint of regret flashed across Lu Changge's eyes.

After putting away the snacks, Lu Changge went into the kitchen to prepare lunch.

Today's lunch is white rice with salsa, a plate of greens, and a bowl of beef meatball soup.

The halved dish contained half a halved pig's trotter, six halved chicken feet, five chicken wings and one chicken drumstick.

In addition, there was a bowl of peanut pig trotter soup that Lu Changge cooked for his wife.

Just as the meal was served, there was a knock on the door, and soon after, Li Xiaomin's voice was heard from outside.

"Uncle Lu, are you home?"

"The door is not closed, push it open and come in." Army Captain Ge Yang said.

After Lu Changge finished speaking, it was a long time before the door was opened.

Li Xiaomin pushed the door open and smelled the fragrance of food, with a look of embarrassment on her face.

"Uncle Lu, you guys are having dinner, so I..."

Su Qingyun happened to come out of the house and saw Li Xiaomin coming alone, and she was a little curious.

"Xiao Min, what's the matter with you? Do you want to come over and have dinner with us?"

"No... no need, it's okay." Li Xiaomin shook her head and said in a low voice, and the courage she had just mustered up disappeared in an instant.

"Just tell me what's going on." Lu Changge looked up at her.

After hearing what Uncle Lu said, Li Xiaomin, who was about to leave, stopped and her face turned red.

"That's right, I want to borrow some food from Uncle Lu."

"Ah? Xiao Min, what did you say?" Su Qingyun said with a confused look on his face.

It was because Li Xiaomin's voice was too soft, and the main room was a bit far from the front door.

"not……"

"Come in first."

As he spoke, Lu Changge took off his apron and walked towards the warehouse.

"Xiao Min, come in." Su Qingyun raised his hand and beckoned the little girl in.

Li Xiaomin hesitated for a moment, but still walked in.

When she saw the person, Su Qingyun realized that Li Xiaomin seemed to be thinner than before.

The clothes I wear look empty.

Thinking of what she had just said about coming to borrow food, Su Qingyun thought about it and knew what was going on.

"Have you eaten? If not, sit down and eat together." Su Qingyun saw that the little girl was very nervous and spoke.

"No need, Uncle Lu. I've already eaten." Li Xiaomin waved her hands quickly, and her eyes kept avoiding the food on the table.

Soon, Lu Changge walked out of the warehouse with a backpack in his hand.

The backpack was not big, but it contained 15 kilograms of rice, five kilograms of potatoes, three kilograms of sweet potatoes, and two large cabbages.

There are fifteen eggs on top.

Seeing so many eggs, Li Xiaomin quickly said, "Uncle Lu, I... I just want to borrow some food. You can just take some brown rice."

"I don't have brown rice at home." Lu Changge handed her the backpack.

Li Xiaomin didn't dare let Uncle Lu keep this position, so she could only take over the backpack.

Feeling the weight on her shoulders, Li Xiaomin felt a lump in her throat.

"I...I will give you the silver as soon as possible."

"Um."

Lu Changge didn't tell her not to pay it back.

He had told Li Tugen that he didn't have to pay it back, but after Li Tugen earned money from the planting system, he returned the money and food he had borrowed as soon as possible.

Seeing Li Xiaomin walking out of the door with a backpack on her back, Su Qingyun withdrew her gaze.

"Husband, will the drought really last until June next year?"

"Um."

After hearing her husband's answer, Su Qingyun stopped talking and lowered her head to eat quietly.

Seeing that his wife was in a low mood, Lu Changge asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Su Qingyun shook her head. "I just thought that many people have no food to eat now. Fortunately, you have always had the habit of hoarding food, otherwise..."

Otherwise, their family wouldn’t be able to have enough to eat every day like they do now.

"There's enough food at home, don't worry." Lu Changge said as he picked up a piece of meat for his wife.

Er Teng, who was standing by, couldn't help but sigh when he heard what his wife said.

[Alas, after all, the master has suffered so much from food shortages. If he doesn’t store some food, he will definitely feel insecure… By the way, Da Teng, I heard that you have been the master’s alien pet since the master was five years old. Was the master very cute when he was a child? Is the little master as cute as he is now?]

As Er Teng was talking, his thoughts jumped to another place.

Hearing Er Er talking about his daddy, Xiaotuanzi also pricked up his ears to listen, and his eating speed gradually slowed down.

[When the master was a child? He was so cute, polite and always smiling.] Da Teng thought about it and dug out the photos of the master when he was a child from his memory.

[Wow! The master can actually laugh? Incredible... what else? What else?] Nido's attention was drawn to Daido's words.

Hearing that daddy could still laugh, little Dumpling also let out a low wow and secretly glanced at daddy a few times.

[Er Teng, don't talk while eating.] Lu Changge suddenly said.

[Huh? I didn’t eat.] Er Teng said with a confused look on his face.

[I'm eating, you don't talk, understand?]

[I understand...I understand.]

After eating for a while without hearing any sound, the little girl licked the rice grains off the spoon and then poked Er Er next to her.

Ziwei whispered, "Er Er, why didn't you tell Dada?"

[Your father won’t tell you.] Er Teng shrugged.

"Why?" said the little dumpling, and stuffed another mouthful of rice into his mouth.

[Isn’t it because they are afraid that we will…]

"Tuanzi, don't talk while eating." Lu Changge suddenly said.

“Hmm…”

Because the ewe he had ordered previously was snatched away by someone else, Lu Changge had to find time to look for one somewhere else.

However, Lu Changge wandered around for a few days, visiting several villages and towns where sheep were raised.

There was not a single ewe found that had given birth or was about to give birth.

As the Reunion Festival was approaching, Lu Changge had no choice but to return home.

When Lu Changge returned home, it was already dark.

Seeing that her husband came back empty-handed again, Su Qingyun didn't say anything.

I found him some clothes and asked him to wash up.

I went to the kitchen and cooked a bowl of noodles.

After taking a shower and eating noodles, it was getting late, so the couple went to bed.

The next morning, Lu Changge got up and started today's sign-in as usual.

[System, sign in.]

[Ding—Successfully signed in on the 121st day of fleeing famine, and received sign-in rewards: four pounds of rice, three snow skin moon cakes, and two mochi.

Get a random sign-in reward: unlimited milk bottles

The reward has been placed in the system space. 】

Seeing the random reward, Army Chief Gordon paused.

[System, didn't you say before that there were no baby products?]

So this is a lie to him?

[This... How can I remember so much?] The system said somewhat awkwardly.

Fearing that the host would take this opportunity to cheat it again, the system quickly fled, [Host, it's alright, I'll leave first!]

Lu Changge ignored the system that ran away, took out the random reward, and then looked through the instruction manual.

The Infinite Bottle, as the name suggests, can produce unlimited milk.

And you can drink it right after opening the bottle, without having to cook or cool it down.

It changes the temperature of the milk with the air temperature to keep the right taste at all times.

However, there is a limit to the number of times you can milk each day.

You can only produce milk five times, which is enough for one meal each time, and then refresh it the next day.

Five meals a day is enough, and the rest can be used to cook rice porridge.

After putting away the infinite milk bottle, Lu Changge took out the snow skin mooncakes and mochi that he had received for signing in today.

When little Tuanzi finished dressing and came out, he passed by the main room and accidentally saw something on the table.

The little dumpling ran over and reached up with his short hands, but couldn't reach it.

"Two, two!" The little dumpling shouted two, two.

[What's wrong? What's the matter, little master?] Er Teng ran out of the little dumpling room and asked.

"I want that." Little Dumpling pointed at something on the table.

[This...] Er Teng stretched out his vines, wrapped around the thing on the table, and took it down.

[Wow! It’s actually a mooncake, and it’s made of snowy skin!] Er Teng was a little surprised.

[Mid-Autumn Festival is coming, it's time to make mooncakes.] Da Teng beside him sighed.

"Er Er, this is a good deal! It has little flowers on it!" Tuanzi pointed at the snow skin mooncake with pink flowers on the surface.

[It looks good. I’ll give it to you.] Er Teng gave the little master the snowy mooncake with pink flowers printed on it.

Mooncakes and mochi come in separate bags.

So, little Tuanzi took it into the house to show his father.

When Lu Changge came out of the kitchen, little Tuanzi had already opened a mooncake and was sharing it with his mother and father.

"Daddy, this is great!"

"Husband, is this also a mooncake? It's so strange." Su Qingyun asked.

"Um."

"We're going to make mooncakes tomorrow, so let's make some of this as well." Su Qingyun said expectantly.

"good."

When we were making mooncakes the next day, Li Tugen also came over with three mooncakes in his hands.

Two are normal size and one is as big as a serving plate.

"Uncle Lu, Uncle Lu, let me bring you some mooncakes." Li Tugen smiled and put the mooncakes on the table.

"One is enough, you can take the rest back." Su Qingyun said from the side.

Ever since her husband rescued Li Tugen and his grandfather, the child would send them something every few days.

Sometimes it is a handful of vegetables, sometimes it is a few fruits, or even cakes.

Although it’s only a little each time, the number of times it’s sent is too much.

"This is so big." The little dumpling sitting on the chair exclaimed with eyes wide open.

"It's okay, leave it for Tuanzi." Li Tugen waved his hand.

"Thank you, Guoguo!" said the little dumpling with a grin.

"How is your grandfather's health?" Lu Changge lowered his head to fiddle with the mooncake filling without raising his head and speaking.

"Just take the medicine for a few more days and you'll be fine." Li Tugen replied.

The medicines his grandfather is taking now were all bought by Li Tugen from the system mall, so he recovered quickly.

Of course, if he has enough points, it will get better faster.

"That's pretty fast. Your leg should be healed now, right?" Su Qingyun asked.

"Yes, it's ready." Li Tugen nodded.

Su Qingyun asked a few more questions, and thinking that his family would probably be very busy today, she let Li Tugen go back.

Just as Li Tugen was about to leave, an urgent cry for help came from outside the door.

"Uncle Lu! Uncle Lu! Please save my sister!" A little boy about the same age as Li Tugen stumbled in.

"Erniu? What happened to Sister Xiaomin?" Li Tugen stopped.

"Wuwu... My third uncle wants to sell my sister to a widower in the next village."

"What?!"

The author has something to say:

It will be uploaded on Monday, and will be updated later.
