Traveling through ancient times to escape famine, I have a treasure chest so I don't have to wo

"Grandma, I want more soup. Mom, I want two pieces of cake!" Xu Ning excitedly handed the bowl to Old Lady Xu, then turned to look at Zhang who was standing behind her, his eyes full of anticipation.

"How many potatoes do you want?" Old Mrs. Xu took the bowl with a smile and scooped a full spoonful of soup into the bowl.

"Three pieces!" Xu Ning immediately replied.

"Grandma, me too, me too. Mom, I want four cakes." Xu Feng stared at the fragrant goose meat stewing in the pot, drooling, and hurriedly followed suit.

"Take more after you finish eating." Zhang responded with a smile. She skillfully took four steaming pancakes from the pot and gave two each to Xu Ning and Xu Feng.

"Mom, I want four." Xu Feng looked at the two pancakes in his hand and pouted unsatisfactorily. He blinked his big eyes and tried to persuade his mother to give him more.

"Four? Eat two first. Do you have a horse's mouth or an ox's mouth? Do you want to eat four in one bite?" Zhang glared at Xu Feng unhappily, but her eyes showed doting and no anger.

After hearing what Zhang said, Xu Feng thought that he could take it after he finished eating, so he took the bowl and left obediently.

Xu An held the protruding bowl in his hand, took a bite of the pancake in his hand, and sat next to Xu Ning.

Xu Ning and Xu Feng ate without even raising their heads. Seeing them eating so happily, Xu An did not say anything until Xu Ning burped and collapsed on the ground. Then he swallowed the food in his mouth and asked, "Ningning, big brother wants to ask for your opinion on something."

"What's the matter?" Xu Ning was full and began to feel empty. She turned her head and looked at Xu An curiously. Xu An summoned up the courage to say, "Ningning, can you learn the technology of that big guy? It's the high-tech you mentioned."

"High-tech? You want to learn it?" Xu Ning turned his head back. Xu Feng, who was still fighting with Bingzi and Goose Meat, suddenly interrupted: "Yes, I wanted to ask this morning... if I could learn it. Dad said I had to ask your opinion first."

"Brother, are you serious?" Xu Ning asked seriously, and Xu An nodded hurriedly.

"Then I'll find some information for you first. This thing may take a long time to learn." Xu Ning didn't quite understand it either. She used to be a liberal arts student and didn't really know much about mechanics.

"Yes!" Xu An nodded seriously, his eyes full of expectation. He knew that learning this so-called high-tech would take a lot of time and energy, but he was mentally prepared.

Xu Ning looked at Xu An's determined eyes and was touched. She didn't expect that Xu An was a man with dreams and pursuits. It was rare that he found the direction he was really interested in. Naturally, she fully supported Xu An's choice.

In the following days, Xu Ning began to collect various materials about mechanical manufacturing and organized them into a row of thick books. At the same time, she also purchased some related video tutorials and simulation software through the system mall, hoping to help Xu An better understand this knowledge.

Thanks to Xu Ning's efforts, after Xu An got this precious reference book, he read every page every day as if it were a treasure and studied the contents carefully. Although many concepts in the book were unfamiliar to him, he was not discouraged. He asked questions when he didn't understand and studied step by step.

As time went by, Xu An gradually mastered some basic mechanical principles and operating skills. He began to try to make some simple tools and parts. Although the results were not perfect, he enjoyed it.

Whenever he encountered difficulties, he would ask Xu Ning for advice, and Xu Ning would patiently answer his questions.

In this way, Xu An slowly grew up through constant practice and exploration. His efforts were recognized and encouraged by the Xu family, and everyone was proud of him. Xu Ning also gained a lot of valuable experience in the process. She felt that being able to help Xu An realize his dream was also a kind of happiness as a member of the Xu family.

Of course this is a story for later.

The afternoon sun casts dappled shadows through the leaves, and the breeze brings a hint of coolness.

The Xu family members either lay or sat in the tent, enjoying the tranquility and leisure.

The chirping of insects and birds around was like a natural symphony, making people feel happy. Before they knew it, people who had worked hard for a whole morning gradually fell into drowsiness.

Xu Ning took out a book called "Basic Mechanical Knowledge", which she had just exchanged for points. This book was just right for Xu An, and it could help him understand the meaning of machinery.

Xu Ning handed the book to Xu An and said, "Brother, this book contains a lot of knowledge about machinery. Keep it for now. If you don't understand it, put it aside. Start by learning to recognize words tonight."

Xu An carefully took the book, washed his hands and wiped them again and again. He found a quiet corner to sit down and began to read this precious book.

However, since Xu An didn't know many words, the text in the book was a little difficult for him. But he didn't give up, but started with the illustrations in the book, trying to understand the meaning by observing the pictures. He used his heart to feel the information expressed by each picture, trying to gain more knowledge from it.

Before they knew it, night fell and Xu Ning turned on the display screen so that Xu An could learn to recognize words through the text on the screen.

Xu An stared at the screen, trying hard to remember the shape and pronunciation of each word.

Xu Feng, who was caught by Old Lady Xu to study together, looked at the words on the screen with a bitter and resentful look. He didn't want to learn, but he didn't dare to say it. He felt that it was enough for his elder brother to study, so why should he study?

Xu Feng didn't study seriously, and Xu Ning and Old Lady Xu saw it as soon as they came in. When Xu Feng saw Xu Ning coming, she immediately acted like a spoiled child: "Second sister, I really don't want to study, can I not study? These characters are too difficult to recognize, I can't remember them at all! And I think these things are useless to me, I don't plan to be a scholar in the future, what's the point of learning these?"

Xu Ning didn't get angry or blame Xu Feng after hearing what he said. Instead, she asked him, "Xiaobao, you want to do business, but have you forgotten that you need to write a contract to do business? If you can't even write, how can you do business in the future? So it's always a good idea to learn more knowledge now."

After hearing what his sister said, Xu Feng's resentment was instantly soothed. He remembered that he had done business with Xu Ning before, and they did need to write a contract for the customer. If he couldn't even write, it would be too embarrassing.

"Second sister, I didn't forget, I just..." Xu Feng defended in a low voice.

"Just what?" Xu Ning asked curiously.

"Oh, nothing. I just think that our eldest brother is awesome." Xu Feng lowered his head, his voice getting smaller and smaller.

"Big brother is powerful because he is big brother. It has nothing to do with you!" Xu Ning replied with a smile.

"That's right. Do you still want your eldest brother to support you in the future? Even if Dabao agrees, we won't agree." Old Mrs. Xu also agreed.

"Got it, grandma." Xu Feng agreed honestly and continued to study with Xu An. Then he found that Xu An's state was not affected from beginning to end.

Xu Ning and Old Lady Xu also noticed it. The two looked at each other and left the tent silently.
