Thinking of her golden finger again, she closed her eyes and concentrated. After a moment, she felt the air suddenly get cold. She opened her eyes and saw that she was in a super large supermarket. There were three floors in total with a spiral staircase in the middle. She was on the second floor of the spiral staircase at this moment. Looking around, there were all kinds of goods, including all kinds of food, fruits, meat, shoes and clothes, as big as refrigerators and washing machines and as small as a nut. There was nothing that was not in the supermarket, only things that you could not think of.

She was shocked but also felt fortunate. Although God made her travel to this remote place, he also gave her a space. With this space, she would no longer have to worry about food and drink.

She picked up a bottle of drink from the freezer, and after drinking it she felt refreshed. She had never thought a drink was so delicious. She threw the empty bottle into an oversized trash can. When she looked at the freezer again, a bottle of drink miraculously appeared in the empty position.

Li Xiaoxiao was overjoyed. This space was an infinite loop.

Not daring to delay too long, Li Xiaoxiao quickly took a shower, washed and dried her clothes. Afraid that her family would find out something was wrong, she washed them with her hands and added a little detergent.

After I finished packing, I came out and felt relieved when I saw that my family was sleeping well.

It was late at night and everything was quiet.

The next day, after breakfast, a group of people went to the vacant land that they had spotted yesterday.

The piece of vacant land was bumpy and was originally a residential site. Later, the family moved away and it became empty and abandoned. Two years ago, Aunt Hua, the neighbor on the right, built a house and expanded it several meters towards this side, making the already small residential site even smaller.

Li Quanfu unloaded the reed stalks from the ox cart. Below were several long tree trunks as thick as arms, which were used to make beams for the house. Li Dahai was in poor health and could not help, so Sun helped from the side.

The old house of the Li family.

Just after breakfast, Su from the third room was quietly cleaning up the dishes.

Li Laosi sat on a chair, crossed his legs, picked his teeth, and casually spit out what he picked out from between his teeth on the ground. The family seemed to be used to it and no one said anything, only Li Jiaojiao frowned slightly.

"Mom, I heard that my second brother is going to build a thatched hut at the west end of the village today." Li Laosi got up early in the morning and had nothing to do, so he went for a stroll on the street and heard people talking about this.

"It will require a lot of reeds." Old Mrs. Li frowned, somewhat displeased.

"That's right. When the family was divided, we didn't get any reeds from them. Could it be that they stole ours? I'm wondering why we feel like there are a lot fewer reeds in our house." Li Laosi thought about it and speculated maliciously. He knew in his heart that Li Xiaoxiao's family was good friends with Li Quanfu, so it was possible that Li Quanfu lent them the reeds. But then again, all the reeds look the same. Who knows where Li Xiaoxiao got them?

"How dare this little bitch steal things?" When Old Lady Li heard that someone stole things from her, she got furious.

"Grandmother, it is wrong for my cousin to steal things. If you report her to the government, she will go to jail. But we are family after all, so why not let them take two taels of silver?" Li Jiaojiao's eyes moved slightly and she spoke softly.

"Niece, you are a kind-hearted person. Li Xiaoxiao wrongly accused you yesterday. Stealing is a big deal. Li Xiaoxiao's family wanted to get away with it with two taels of silver, but I think it should be at least five taels." Thinking of the eight taels of silver, Li Laosi felt pain in his heart and couldn't sleep well at night.

"What Fourth Uncle said is absolutely right, but Li Xiaoxiao has always been undisciplined. If you ask her to take out five taels, I'm afraid she won't agree." Li Jiaojiao said after careful consideration.

"She must give it, mother. We can't let this matter go so easily. What she stole today was our things. We can forgive her if we give her money. If it's someone else, they will let it go. Our purpose today is not to ask her for money, but to make her remember not to do such sneaky things next time." Li Laosi looked righteous and portrayed himself as a good uncle who only cared about his niece.

Speaking of five taels of silver, Old Lady Li was a little moved. She looked at Old Man Li who was smoking beside her and had an idea in her mind.

The weather was clear and the air was hot.

Li Xiaoxiao found a hoe and started clearing the weeds on the ground. Soon he was sweating profusely.

Li Quanfu used his ox cart to pull a cart of soil. This soil was not ordinary soil, it was sticky. He mixed reed stalks with this soil and spread it on the roof. Then he covered it with a thick layer of reed stalks. It would not leak and would have a longer service life.

In fact, it would be okay to just lay a layer of reeds on the roof, but it would not last long and the house would become damp. Li Xiaoxiao's family was in financial difficulty and he didn't know when he would have the money to build a house, so Li Quanfu didn't think of fooling around and had to build it anyway.

As they were busy, they saw Old Lady Li and the fourth son, Li Dahu, walking towards them on tiptoe.

Li Dahai was the first to discover it. He was slightly delighted to see that it was his mother who came. His mother still cared about him. She knew that he was building a house today and thought of coming to see him.

Li Xiaoxiao followed Li Dahai's gaze and saw that it was Old Lady Li. She didn't expect that Old Lady Li was here to help, but she was thankful that she didn't make things worse.

When Li Dahai got closer, he saw that his mother looked unhappy. Before she spoke, she snorted coldly.

"Second brother, I raised you with great difficulty, married you off and gave you children, and gave you a lot of money and things when we divided the family property. Yet you actually instructed Li Xiaoxiao to do such a despicable thing? You have no conscience." Old Mrs. Li came up and started accusing him, with her hands on her hips and speaking harshly.

"Mom, what did I tell Xiaoxiao to do?" Li Dahai was very puzzled when he saw this. He didn't expect his mother to come up and question him. He was disappointed, but couldn't say anything.

"You've done such a good thing, and yet you come to ask me where these reeds in your house came from. You refuse to admit that you stole things." Old Mrs. Li pointed at the reeds on the ground and shouted angrily.

Soon the noise attracted nearby villagers to watch, and they pointed and talked in low voices.

When Mrs. Li saw someone coming, she became even more confident.

"You are my own son. If you came to me and asked for him, I could not refuse you. How could I give birth to an ungrateful person like you?" After saying this, Old Mrs. Li sat down on the ground, clapped her hands on the ground, and howled.

Two old ladies who were about the same age as Grandma Li came over to persuade her and reached out to pull her up, but Grandma Li ignored them and continued to howl as if she had suffered a great injustice.

Li Laosi was standing aside, looking calm and composed, watching the show.

"I borrowed these reeds from Brother Quanfu, not from the little thief." Li Dahai explained. This concerned Xiaoxiao's reputation, and he couldn't let his daughter suffer an injustice.

"Mom, these are really from Brother Quanfu's house. We were just brought here from his house this morning." Sun was also anxious. Seeing Old Lady Li sitting on the ground and making a scene, she wanted to pull her up but did not dare to go forward.

"You are so bad, Sun. Ever since you came to my house, my son has been against me. Now my son's health is getting worse and worse, and it's all because of you, a jinx that no one wants. If I had known this would happen, I should not have bought you from the human traffickers. I should have sold you to a brothel to become a little whore who is trampled by thousands of men." Old Lady Li looked down on Sun from the beginning, and now she blames all the bad things on her and says vicious words.

"Mom, I didn't." Instantly, Sun burst into tears and covered her face and cried bitterly.

When Li Huawen saw her mother crying, she picked up a stone on the ground and threw it at Old Lady Li. However, she was young and her power was not accurate, so the stone flew past Old Lady Li's shoulder.

Li Ruolan leaned against her mother, sobbing softly in fear.

Suddenly the scene was in chaos, with sounds of crying, quarreling, and cursing. More and more people came, and some nosy villagers ran to call the head of the village.
