To be fair, some of these books were just for passing the time, while most of them would likely provide Lin Momo with a lot of help in her life in ancient times.
She also plans to learn traditional Chinese medicine on her own.
To this end, a number of books on this subject were prepared in advance, such as out-of-print "Introduction to Traditional Chinese Medicine", "Basic Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine", "Barefoot Doctor's Handbook", "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases", "Acupuncture and Moxibustion", "Tuina", "Traditional Chinese Medicine Gynecology", "Traditional Chinese Medicine Pediatrics", "Synopsis of Prescriptions of the Golden Chamber", etc.
I don't need to become an expert; just be able to treat some simple illnesses. If I have extra energy, I can focus on gynecology and pediatrics, as well as acupuncture.
This era emphasized gender distinctions, and since most doctors were men, women were hesitant to seek medical treatment, resulting in many unnecessary deaths.
If she can complete her studies in the future and the world is at peace, she can go down the mountain and open a small clinic specializing in gynecological diseases, which would be a good way to make a living.
If she can do something for the unfortunate women of this era, then her life wasn't in vain.
Life in the mountains is quiet and long, with plenty of free time besides the necessary daily work.
Lin Momo felt that instead of living a muddled life, she should take the opportunity to learn a skill so that she would have more support.
Especially now that we've entered the winter off-season for rest and recuperation, there's not much to do outside, so we can't just stay indoors eating and drinking all day.
I should find something to do, otherwise I'll become lazy.

On the day the bedroom was tidied up, Lin Momo happily moved into her new home with Benben.
Originally, she only allowed Benben to stay in the space for one night, but given its good behavior, Lin Momo raised her hand and granted it permission to stay for two more nights.
Although Lin Momo has been here for four days, today is the first time she has officially checked in.
Sitting on the stone steps in front of the door, gazing at the brightly lit scene inside and out, she suddenly had the illusion of returning to the modern world.
She lowered her head and gently stroked the clumsy creature in her arms, letting out a soft sigh: "I wonder what time is doing right now."
"Has he already obeyed his parents' wishes and gotten engaged to that rich girl?"
That night.
Lin Momo slept in the east room on the new bed she had brought from modern times.
Benben slept on the carpet in front of the bed, keeping its owner company as they fell asleep.
Lin Momo thought she wouldn't be able to sleep, but to her surprise, she fell asleep peacefully shortly after lying down.
It has to be said that this adaptability is exceptionally strong.
No wonder fate chose her to travel through time.

The next morning.
After waking up, Lin Momo lingered in bed for a while until the sun rose before finally getting out.
These three days have really kept Lin Momo very busy. To avoid taking a toll on her health, she decided to give herself a day off, just like taking a weekend off.
After getting dressed and washing up, she let her long hair down and went to the hexagonal pavilion by the small pond to boil water and make tea.
This is a small, cozy pavilion with glass lattice windows on all six sides. It's not spacious but not cramped either, making it a perfect spot for a few friends to gather and chat.
With all the lattice doors closed and the fire in the small clay stove warming her, Lin Momo, wearing a padded jacket, didn't feel cold at all.
While waiting for the water to boil, she ate a simple breakfast: a still-warm, crispy fried dough stick and a tea egg.
On the table were small tea snacks such as walnuts, oranges, chestnuts, and pine nuts, as well as a small tea table, a tea set, and two small canisters of tea.
There was even a wire mesh for grilling.
Judging from this setup, who knows how long we'll be drinking this tea today.
Seeing that its master was only concerned with eating and drinking, Benben anxiously circled around Lin Momo's feet, its tail wagging so hard it almost broke.
Lin Momo couldn't help but chuckle. She had been so engrossed in her own enjoyment that she had completely forgotten about the little guy. She quickly took out a fried dough stick from her spatial storage and broke off a piece for him.
Seeing that it immediately snatched it into its mouth, chewed it a couple of times, and swallowed it without seeming to mind, I tore the rest into small pieces and threw them on the ground.
Fearing it wouldn't have enough to eat, I fed it another steamed bun.
Soon the spring water on the stove was boiling, and Lin Momo began to slowly brew tea.
Then, as she sipped her tea, she leisurely admired the towering cliffs and the surrounding scenery through the glass lattice.
Lin Momo was quite satisfied after taking a stroll around this small valley the other day.
It is believed that if the zigzag passage at the entrance were blocked with huge stones, this place would undoubtedly become an extremely secluded location.
Unless someone can climb up from the south, where there is a cliff several tens of feet high.
This is an extremely difficult task.
I doubt there are many people in the world with that ability.
Even if ordinary people who can't survive outside flee into the mountains to make a living in the future, as long as Lin Momo doesn't go out, she can still rest easy and continue to live her free and undisturbed life.
This place was neither the lush, verdant valley with hot springs that she longed for, nor the idyllic paradise of Peach Blossom Spring.
Yet it has its own touching aspects.
It's definitely a good place to escape the world.
After searching for two days, Lin Momo finally found a safe haven with the help of a stray dog in the mountains and gradually settled down.
How will her relatives outside the mountains react to her being a missing person?

Linjia Village.
The distinguished guest who had come from afar to visit the Lin family's old residence, Old Master Shi, had already left in his carriage.
But he left his grandson's time in the Lin family.
Upon learning of his old friend's plan, Old Master Lin was initially reluctant to take on this hot potato.
