In a messy house, on a big bed, a young girl was sleeping peacefully, the sunlight was sneaking in through the gap in the curtains, a person was sleeping with a frown on her face, the cell phone beside her kept vibrating, waking her up from her sleep, the girl slowly opened her eyes and fumbled to answer the phone.

"Qin Xingfu, why didn't you answer the phone? I was so mad. Are you still asleep?"

A sharp and anxious voice came, and the girl sat up and yawned.

"Wake up, wake up. What are you doing? You're asking for your life."

"Remember we are going out to play tomorrow. You haven't been out for two or three months. Don't forget what you promised. Have you packed your things? We will meet at the station at seven o'clock tomorrow. Remember to buy some things to prepare. The place we are going to is a bit desolate. Your home is close to the vegetable market. Buy more food. You are strong, so buy more. I have already given you the money..."

The voice on the phone kept chattering. The girl got up and went into the bathroom, turned on the speaker, and spoke while brushing her teeth.

"I know, I know. Yanyan, have you been with the teacher for too long? You talk too much and repeat the same thing over and over again. I know everything. Don't worry! Don't worry too much!"

"Humph, Qin Xingfu, you are getting bolder and bolder. You dare to say that I am an old woman. I will punish you tomorrow."

"Hehe...I won't say any more. See you tomorrow."

The girl hung up the phone and thought about the dream while washing up. She felt a little strange. She had been dreaming about Prince Fusu repeatedly in the past few days. He asked her what she would do if she was him? How to save him? He asked her to help him. The despair in his eyes and the determination when he committed suicide deeply hurt her.

The girl shook her head vigorously.

"Oh, I really thought too much. I keep dreaming about a person who has been dead for two or three thousand years. Maybe it's because I've listened to Yanyan's chatter too much these past few days!"

I simply packed up, changed my clothes and went out shopping.

"How happy! I haven't seen you for a long time. You've lost a lot of weight. Take care of yourself! These are the things you ordered yesterday. I've saved them for you."

The butcher greeted her warmly.

"Uncle Zhu, thank you. These spare ribs and pork belly are quite good. How much are they?"

"Two hundred and eighty in total. I won't be polite with you!"

The butcher said with a smile, and He Xingfu scanned the code to pay.

"It's over, thank you Uncle Zhu!"

The girl carried a large bag of meat and went straight to the next stall to pick up the dishes she had ordered last night.

"Happiness, come here, this is the dish you ordered last night. Your phone is really nice, is it a new model?"

Qin Xingfu took the dish and said.

"Aunt Zhang has a very good eye. This is our newly developed nuclear power phone. One phone can be passed down for three generations."

"Is it true? What functions does it have? Can this phone be used to search for information without going online? My son said he is busy with his graduation thesis. Can he search for information online? Some of the information is available in this database but not in that one. There are so many memberships, and some of the information is just for show and has no reference value at all."

"This phone has many functions. You will know it after it is released. What you just said is indeed a rather troublesome problem. I have made a database myself, which covers a lot of content. When Brother Jiahui comes back, ask him to come to my house and I will share a copy with him."

Qin Xingfu likes to read books on a daily basis. He has a wide range of interests and can understand many things quickly. When he was a child, the most common thing at home was various books. His grandparents taught him knowledge about history, economics, and politics, while his parents taught him about industry, machinery, and energy.

After her grandparents discovered her talent, they quickly told her parents, but her parents looked at her with very distressed eyes and spoke words that she could not understand. When she grew up a little, she understood her parents' painstaking efforts. Her parents only hoped that she could be an ordinary person, and they would find ways to find her any book she wanted. She became a little bookworm as she wished.

When she was a child, she often read books while holding them. Some of her friends said she was pretentious and bullied her. Although she was strong, she did not like to argue with others. Later, she asked her parents to buy her a mobile phone. She modified the phone herself and made a database. In this way, in the eyes of other children, she was a fool who played with her phone every day. Whenever others wanted to look at her phone, she would quickly switch to the game interface.

The database she made herself is more comprehensive than any database on the market today. As long as it is connected to the Internet, it will automatically query and update the latest information. She just selects the information and then saves it.

She started collecting the database when she was ten years old, and the books accompanied her through one painful day after another.

"That's great. That brat will be back during the Qingming Festival. Let him come find you then."

"Row!"

Aunt Zhang suddenly remembered that she had just said that mobile phones were powered by nuclear power, and her eyes twitched.

"I'm lucky. Nuclear energy is so dangerous. You should stay away from it as a girl. If you have health problems in the future, it won't be worth it."

"That's right, happiness. Your parents are also doing this..."

The owner of the vegetable stall opposite interrupted her, but before she could finish her words, Aunt Zhang threw a carrot to interrupt her.

"If you can't talk, just shut up! Xingfu, we won't listen to her. You are really great, but you still need to be careful. Look at the countries that used to have a good life, but now everyone is suffering from various diseases."

Aunt Zhang frowned as she spoke, and she was quite worried about her.

There was a hint of hurt in Qin Xingfu's eyes, but he still said with a smile.

"Aunt Li, I'm sorry, Aunt Zhang, I'm fine. This is our new project. It's very safe and has passed the safety test. Don't worry. I'll leave first."

The two of them watched He Xingfu walk away and talked behind his back.

"Mr. Zhang, I'm just telling you what happened. Didn't her parents die because of this? Am I not telling the truth?"

"You just tell the truth. Their parents just got married not long ago. Xingfu has become so thin. Their family usually takes care of our business. Don't always stab them in the back."

Aunt Li was stunned, knowing she was in the wrong, and lowered her head to pack up her stall.

Qin Xingfu first brought the meat and vegetables home. When she opened the door, she saw the once warm family of three now left in a cold room. She felt a pain in her heart and squatted on the ground crying, holding her chest.

"Mom and Dad, are you okay? I miss you."

After curling up and crying for a long time, Qin Xingfu finally got up, went into the bathroom to wash her face, and then tried hard to force a smile.

"It's okay, Qin Xingfu, you are already twenty years old, you are an adult, you should be more independent, don't cry all the time, it's too ugly, come on! You can do it."

After wiping away her tears, she opened the curtains and began to clean up the room. Her teachers and seniors were afraid that she would be depressed, so they kept inviting her to go out for outings. She couldn't let them down and had to be strong.

She hasn't cleaned the house properly for a long time since her parents left. If her mother were here, she would definitely scold her, as she is a person with mild mysophobia and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Her father would definitely help her clean up while saying nice things to her to comfort her.

Qin Xingfu looked at the house full of traces of her parents' lives and many photos. She arranged everything according to her parents' habits while crying. She cried while she was cleaning up. She was so sad that she vomited. After vomiting, she quickly cleaned up the house.

When she wiped the mirror again, she felt that she was so ugly, her eyes were red, and she looked half as thin as before. She forced a smile.

"Qin Xingfu, it's okay, it's all over. Don't cry anymore, it's too ugly! I'm afraid Yanyan will make fun of you tomorrow if your eyes are swollen."

After cleaning the house and cooking a bowl of noodles, Qin Xingfu went out to buy some snacks. They were all the snacks she and Yanyan liked to eat. There was a big pile of everything.

Passing by a seed shop, Qin Xingfu thought that all the flowers in the pots at home were dead, so she wanted to go in and see if there were any seeds that could be planted. Unlike her mother, she didn't like planting flowers, she preferred planting vegetables.

"Beautiful lady, what seeds do you want to buy? These are vegetable seeds, and these are carrot, coriander, and tomato seeds. You have wheat and corn seeds, which are not for viewing, but high-yield crop seeds. These are seeds of various flowers, and these are cotton seeds, which are also crop varieties."

"Boss, you have quite a comprehensive collection, with both planting and ornamental items."

"That's right. I've been here for 50 or 60 years. My father started this business. I have everything you can't find in other stores. Many people come from far away to buy seeds from me. I have everything here. There are many varieties of corn, as well as wheat and millet."

The boss introduced them all enthusiastically and she wanted to buy them all. The Qingming Festival was approaching and she wanted to go back to her hometown for some time. It was a pity for the land at home to be left idle. Every year, her family would take time to go back and farm. She felt that was the hardest but happiest time.

"Boss, I'll give you one of each type of seed in your store!"

The house is quite big and it's a bit lonely living alone, so it would be nice to plant more things. Everything she raised before died, so she didn't dare to keep pets anymore. She wanted to try growing some plants. The boss quickly gave her a lot of seeds, and picked out one or two for her from the many varieties. Qin Xingfu paid the bill and left with the seeds.

"This little beauty looks skinny, but she's quite strong."

Qin Xingfu returned home and the video call started ringing. Before she could say anything, the person on the other end spoke.

"Hey, today I finally cleaned up your doghouse. It seems that you are in a good mood today. Let me see if you have bought everything?"

Qin Xingfu sighed, then counted everything one by one with her via video chat.

"Not bad, you've bought everything, but you haven't bought a bigger basket for the food yet, remember to buy one."

"It seems so. Let's go buy some now. And buy some ice cubes to keep it fresh."

"Yes, yes, yes, you are smart. Go quickly. It's not safe to go too late. Go to bed early tonight and don't be late tomorrow. Oh, it's a bit cold now, so bring some thick clothes."

Hao Yan hurriedly urged her, and Qin Xingfu went out again and bought a small cart that an old man used to sell vegetables. It was easy to carry and could hold a lot of things. She also saw a particularly sturdy mountaineering bag, and bought a tent as well, so that Hao Yan would not have to bring hers tomorrow.

Her parents used to go out for outings, but as their careers became busier, the family seldom went out to play.

She bought some ice packs and saw someone selling potatoes and sweet potatoes on the roadside. It seemed that she hadn't bought any today. She remembered that a senior sister liked to eat them very much, so she bought ten kilograms of each.

Qin Xingfu didn't want to go home to cook, so she ate something outside. After returning home, she marinated the meat, washed the vegetables, and peeled a few potatoes. She didn't want to move anymore. She was very tired today.

She hadn't been active for a long time since her parents passed away. Her activity level suddenly increased and she felt a little sore all over. She might as well take it with her like this and roast it over the fire so that it would have a different flavor.

He packed his things directly, and then packed his clothes and toiletries. Qin Xingfu took a shower and went to bed early.
