Chapter 7
Up the Mountain
After dinner, Liu Shi washed the dishes and the three of them washed up.
Liu Shi washed the dirty clothes and hung them on a pole to dry before she went to bed.
Lin Xiaoyue couldn’t sleep after sleeping for the whole day, so she began to make plans.
The house was very dilapidated. In fact, it was just held up by some pillars with a grass roof. Moreover, some parts of the grass were rotten, revealing holes. If it rained, it would leak into the house.
Also, the house was not big. The bedroom, living room, and kitchen were all in the same space. Only the bathroom was separate, and there was no privacy.
As for the yard outside, even if her mother had used a small stick to draw the boundary, there was no privacy.
This was also why Grandmother Lin could come to their house in broad daylight to take things.
Lin Xiaoyue looked at the situation in the room under the moonlight.
A broken table, two broken benches, a stove that was randomly put together, a chipped chopping board, and three broken bowls..
It seemed that the strongest thing was the bed under them…
Summer had just come, and because of the hot weather, they didn’t need to cover themselves for the time being. But when winter came..
Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoyue’s heart sank.
She had to think of a way to earn money as soon as possible..
She kept thinking, and then rejecting her own ideas.
Then, she fell asleep without knowing.
The next day.
When Lin Xiaoyue woke up, Liu Shi was already working in the kitchen with her brother.
She smelled the familiar aroma of egg pancakes.
Lin Xiaoyue got out of bed.
“Mom, are you making egg pancakes again?” She walked to the kitchen counter.
After a night of rest, her spiritual power had completely recovered, and her injuries had also healed. Her body had even returned to the level it was in the 21st century.
“Yes. I know you like it. I saw that it wasn’t complicated when you made it yesterday, so I tried it myself.”
Liu Shi had finished making the cake and was filling the egg cake into bowls.
“Hurry up and eat. Aunt Wang will come to get me to look for some wild vegetables later.” She walked towards the table with the bowl.
She wasn’t afraid that Aunt Wang would know that their family had food. She even thought that they should send some things to the Wang family to repay them.
But it was hard to explain this. Her daughter said that the things were brought by her father. This was even more bizarre than when her daughter met the King of Hell.
In order to avoid causing trouble for her daughter, it was best not to tell anyone.
Lin Xiaoyue’s eyes lit up.
“I’ll come too!” She said hurriedly.
Their family’s land had all been taken away by the Lin family. Her mother did not know how to farm. If she wanted to make money or find food, she had to think of other ways for the time being.
As the saying went, one had to rely on a mountain to survive. She might as well go up the mountain to take a look.
“What are you going to do? Rest and get well first.” Lis Shi did not agree.
“I’m already well. If you don’t believe me, just look at me!” Lin Xiaoyue immediately made a few gestures.
Liu Shi was worried and amused at the same time.
“Me too!” The young child also looked at Liu Shi.
Liu Shi was amused by the two children.
“Alright, don’t complain when you’re tired!”
So the family ate breakfast.
After breakfast, Liu Shi washed the dishes, and Aunt Wang’s voice came from outside.
“I’m here! I’m coming!” Liu Shi replied, quickly carrying the basket on her back, and took the sickle out of the door.
A sickle immediately appeared in Lin Xiaoyue’s hand.
Then, she exchanged a look with her brother, and with the other hand, she took his hand and followed them.
