Traveling back to ancient times begins with the use of stone tools

"Mom, this is our new home, under your name. Even though it's a little shabby, we'll slowly clean it up and it will be fine in the future."

Leng Ruoxue explained why Liu Ruxu might be unhappy when she saw the thatched hut.

"Well, we can build a fence here and create a vegetable garden. We can also build a vegetable garden in the back."

Liu Ruxu was obviously happy, this was her home.

Even if it is just a thatched hut, it is still your home.

I've never felt so at ease.

"Hey, wasn't this iron pot given to Liu Datong? How did you get it here?"

Liu Ruxu was puzzled.

"This is ours, take it."

Leng Ruoxue understood that Liu Ruxu didn't know that the iron pot was given to her family.

"Haha, I was thinking about who to borrow a clay pot from, but I didn't expect that we already have an iron pot."

Liu Ruxu was extremely happy holding the iron pot.

"I'll find some stones and make a stove."

With the experience in the valley, Liu Ruxu didn’t think there was anything wrong with the thatched hut and just took her time to build it.

Leng Ruoxue made the bed. After delivering the silver to the village chief, she went to the thatched hut first and took out the bed and table collected from the valley. In order to make it look more realistic, she sprinkled a layer of soil on it.

Now I am wiping the dust off.

"Hey, there are two buckets under the bed."

Leng Yuxuan, who was helping with the cleaning, finally found the wooden barrel hidden in the snow.

Liu Ruxu left the two wooden barrels she brought to Leng Jingshan.

It can be said that apart from the house, the old couple had nothing left. It was also because of this that they didn’t find their grandson and that the old couple didn’t want to live anymore.

They were busy until dark, then the three of them tiredly ate dinner, boiled some hot water, washed up and went to bed.

The thatched hut is not big and can only accommodate a bed and a small table.

But all three of them slept well, as they finally had a home of their own.

In the middle of the night, Leng Ruoxue forced herself to get up and drove the ox cart out for a walk.

Liu Ruxu thought Leng Ruoxue had gone out to relieve herself, so she took a quick look at her and continued to sleep.

When I woke up in the morning, I found the ox cart at the door was filled with pumpkins, winter melons and carrots.

"Ruoxue, are you going to the valley again?"

Liu Ruxu woke Leng Ruoxue up.

"Well, I was just going to take a look, but I didn't expect to be able to go in, so I took out the food inside."

"Why don't you take mom to have a look? Maybe we can harvest some of the crops we planted."

Although they had a house, they had no land and no food. After they distributed the remaining food, there were only more than 100 kilograms, which could only last for about three months if they added wild vegetables.

"Mother, you can't get in. It's only because I can float on water that I can get in. Besides, when the valley was flooded, wheat and other crops had just sprouted. They couldn't grow ears in the water, so there would be no food."

Leng Ruoxue wanted to catch up on some sleep, so she turned over and fell asleep.

"There are so many dishes, why don't we give some to your uncle and uncle? When your grandparents were sick, they owed them a lot of money, and they probably haven't paid it back yet."

"What did you say? Grandpa and grandma still owe you money?"

Leng Ruoxue woke up instantly.

“There should be more”

Liu Ruxu's estimation was correct. The old couple relied on the food from the two acres of land to fill their stomachs, so how could they have any extra money?

"Then keep a few for ourselves, and take the rest to Grandpa's house. Find out who it is owed to, and give a few to each family. Keep count, and I will pay you back when I make money later."

Leng Ruoxue regretted buying a house and spending 20 taels of silver to get her household registration. If she had known earlier, she could have saved 20 taels of silver by putting in some more effort.

"Okay, you guys go to sleep first, and get up when mom comes back."

Liu Ruxu took out three pumpkins, two winter melons and some carrots and put them in the house, then drove the ox cart to Leng Jingshan's house.

Everyone who received the gifts knew that the three of them were able to survive because Leng Yuxuan, the lucky doll, discovered a cave with water and found a valley, which allowed them to survive the famine in prosperity.

He also sold water when there was a water shortage in the city, and sold vegetables when there were no vegetables, so he had the ox cart and silver.

Liu Ruxu was so exhausted from talking that she finally visited all the people who owed her money.

There were more than 100 households in the village, and 30 of them owed 20 taels of silver.

Leng Ruoxue thought about it and realized that the people in the village were not rich. There were only three or two families raising chickens, and most people lived on wild vegetable porridge. It was understandable that these 30 households owed a debt of 20 taels of silver.

By the time it was time for dinner, I still hadn't figured out a way to make money quickly.

Forget it, let’s just sell the house in the city.

It’s such a nice house, but I’ve never lived in it for a single day. What a pity.

"Ruoxue, Yuxuan!"

Leng Ruoxue, who was talking in the room, heard someone calling her outside.

I went out curiously and saw that Liu Datong came with Grandpa Wang’s two sons and a grandson.

Standing outside the yard with no door and shouting.

"Uncle Liu, Uncle Wang, you are here, come in quickly"

Leng Ruoxue looked at the yard supported by short firewood. This was the land that she, her mother and brother had fenced off yesterday.

It was only as high as the shoe surface, so a few people did not come in directly and had to be called to come in.

Leng Ruoxue was surprised to see several people carrying tools purchased by the three families and a few stools.

"Didn't Datong come home yesterday and tell you that your house was about to collapse? My dad asked us to come and help fix it, and by the way, see if we can make you a table or bed or something."

Wang Dazhuang put down the stool in his hand.

"I'm here to borrow the oxcart. I didn't put all the wood I cut in the valley. It would be a waste to leave it there, so I thought of using the oxcart to pull it here for you."

"That's great, Uncle Liu. Those woods should be useful for building a house. Could you please help me get them over?"

Although we can cut down trees on the mountain here, it takes time. Besides, the trees are not dry yet, so we need dry wood to build houses.

Leng Ruoxue was not polite either.

Liu Ruxu moved the table out of the room, which had just four chairs, and boiled some hot water and brought it up to the people.

"Let's go cut some bamboo to build a wall around the yard."

Liu Datong went to harness the cows to the cart, and the three members of the Wang family went up the mountain with their tools.

"How embarrassing is this!"

Liu Ruxu looked at Leng Ruoxue.

"Mom, it's okay. They want to thank us. They will feel bad if we don't accept it. Besides, Uncle Wang has a large family and the food rations are definitely not enough. Why don't we ask them to help build a few houses and we will provide two meals."

"But we don't have much food at home!"

Liu Ruxu was worried.

"Mom, I'll figure this out. Just prepare food for everyone."

Leng Ruoxue thought about it and decided to go to the city to sell the house.

"Sister Ruoxue"

A little boy carrying a bundle of firewood said, "This is for you."

After saying that, he put down the firewood and ran away.

Leng Ruoxue: ...I haven't seen the face clearly yet, who is this?

"It's from Dazhu's family. I guess they asked me to send the pumpkin and winter melon to them this morning."

Liu Ruxu knows more people in the village than Leng Ruoxue.

......

After a while, children came one after another to bring wild vegetables and firewood.

It was at this time that Leng Ruoxue realized the simplicity of the villagers. She was just thanking everyone for lending a helping hand to the Leng family when times were so difficult, but she didn't expect that everyone was repaying them to the best of their ability.
