Chapter 6 "New Home"
In short, after cleaning up, it was clean and tidy, and it looked a bit like home.
"Not bad." Zhuang Qingning rubbed his sore waist.
"Yeah." Zhuang Qingsui smiled and nodded: "From now on, we will have a new home."
"This is not a new home. I will build you a house with blue bricks and tiles and a courtyard in the future. That will be a new home." Zhuang Qingning rubbed the furry little head: "Are you hungry?"
“Somewhat.”
After being busy all day, Zhuang Qingsui was very tired. Her stomach was rumbling a little, and she couldn't help but reach out to rub her stomach.
"It's not hot enough, and we don't have a pot to boil water. We can only drink raw water. But if we keep eating cold food, I'm afraid our stomachs will feel uncomfortable. Let's light a fire and bake some steamed bread to eat in the evening."
"Okay." Zhuang Qingsui hurried to the kitchen to find a flint and helped to light a fire in the stove.
When the fire was burning vigorously, they took branches and inserted the steamed buns into them, then carefully roasted them by the fire. The buns, which were originally made of two kinds of flour, soon developed a layer of burnt crust.
Peel it off, put it in your mouth, chew it with a crunchy sound, and your mouth will be filled with fragrance.
Zhuang Qingsui had already eaten full meals for the whole day, and now he could eat the roasted steamed bread with a very crispy aroma. He felt that life was so happy that he couldn't help but grin.
Zhuang Qingning also smiled when he saw this.
After the two of them had eaten and drunk their fill, they packed up their bedding and prepared to go to bed early.
"You go and make the bed first. I'll wash my feet and be there right away." Zhuang Qingning said with a smile.
"Okay." Zhuang Qingsui jumped over and carried the wheat straw.
When Zhuang Qingning saw Zhuang Qingsui enter the house, he breathed a sigh of relief and tilted his head.
System...what's the number? Come out, come out.
【No. 0715……】
This is too long. Can I call you Xiaowu from now on?
[That’s not good, I have a name. ]
If not, what is the system number?
【！ ！ 】
[The system doesn't treat humans the same way. Xiaowu is Xiaowu. What do you want from the host? ]
Check the diligence points you have earned today and the items that can be exchanged.
[The host has obtained a total of 8 points of diligence today. After deducting 1 point for the normal operation of the system, there are still 7 points of diligence. The items that can be exchanged are as follows...]
As soon as Xiao Wu finished speaking, something similar to the touch screen in modern society appeared in Zhuang Qingning's mind, showing various commodities in the form of pictures.
At the same time, there are very conspicuous exchange rules on the side: diligence points can only be exchanged for items, not money, and in order not to disrupt the balance of this parallel space, the technologically advanced items exchanged, such as glass, rubber products and even some formulas, can only be used by oneself and cannot be traded in this world, otherwise the items will self-destruct, 10,000 diligence points will be deducted, and 20 mandatory tasks will be added.
It is obvious at first glance that this system has experienced the beatings of society, and the path to opportunism has been completely blocked.
Zhuang Qingning curled her lips and moved her eyes away from the crystal clear glass.
After careful consideration, Zhuang Qingning finally selected a few items with a high cost-effectiveness ratio.
A pound of corn flour, a pound of white flour, two eggs, two coarse porcelain bowls, a little salt, and a little peanut oil.
They are all necessary things for daily life.
Because it was the first time to use the system, Xiaowu gave me a novice gift package, which included an iron pot and spatula for cooking.
Looking at these things, Zhuang Qingning frowned: "Isn't this diligence value too little every day?"
She had been busy all day long, and only managed to produce this little bit.
If you can only exchange this little bit of stuff every day, won't it take forever to get rich?
[As I have reminded you before, the level of diligence is determined by the importance of the work you do, the wealth it can equate to in this world, and the impact it has on this world.]
[For example, if you do the same work for a day, you will get more diligence points if you work as a carpenter than if you work as a hoe.]
[So according to the current situation, I suggest that you consider using your abilities and expertise as a modern person to start with some processing or mental labor. This will make it easier and faster to obtain some diligence points, so that you can exchange them for corresponding things.]
As for mental labor, as a poor student in his previous life, Zhuang Qingning didn't think that the little modern knowledge he had mastered could be used for anything, but processing-related things...
Zhuang Qingning's eyes rolled.
"Sister, the bed is made." Zhuang Qingsui's voice sounded crisply in the room.
"Coming." Zhuang Qingning put away the system, shook off the water droplets on his feet, put on his shoes, and went into the house.
The wheat straw had been crushed by stones in the past, making it less hard and brittle and more soft. Today it was spread out in the yard to dry in the sun, so it no longer had the musty smell from being exposed to the sun, wind and rain for a long time. Instead, it had the warm fragrance of the sun, and it felt comfortable to spread it under my body.
Putting on this padded jacket, I don’t feel cold at all.
The two sisters huddled together, closed their eyes, and soon fell into a sweet dream.
At this time, most of the farmers, who had been tired all day, went to bed early, turned off the oil lamps and prepared to sleep.
However, at this moment, there was still light on in Zhuang Ruman's house.
The flickering candlelight made Zhuang Ruman, who already looked unhappy, look even gloomier.
I searched the entire village today, but couldn't find any trace of the two dead girls. I even asked several families, especially those near my home, and they all said they hadn't seen where the two dead girls had gone.
"Boss, I see that others are lying with open eyes. These two dead girls are two living people, not two flies. How could they not see them from other people's doorsteps? They are obviously fooling us. I think these two dead girls are hidden by someone!"
"In my opinion, if that doesn't work, we should go door to door tomorrow and ask and check every house. It would be best if we can go into the house and look for him. I guarantee we can find the person!"
Song said with an angry look on her face.
Stupid woman! Zhuang Ruman cursed her several times in his heart and glanced at Song: "Others are helping those two stupid girls, why don't you think about why?"
"When I woke up in the morning, I told you to be nicer when you were looking for someone, and to speak nicely. But you looked like you wanted to eat me. Who would tell you the truth?"
"At this rate, I'm afraid you'll never find those two dead girls."
After being yelled at again, Song lowered her head, pursed her lips and stopped talking. She just grabbed her sleeves and kept pulling them. Her sleeves turned a little white, but she still refused to stop.
After a long silence, Song was still unwilling to give in: "Are we just going to let this go?"
