Old man Shen prided himself on being from a scholarly family, and he believed in not talking while eating or sleeping. He didn't say a word during the entire meal.

Shen Mingzhu quietly finished their first meal since traveling across time.

After dinner and as night fell, Shen Mingzhu's family gathered in Shen Laosan's room.

This is the backyard, no one comes here, and their home is at the end of the village, backed by a mountain, with vegetable gardens surrounding the house, so it is relatively quiet and comfortable.

Shen Laosan looked at his silent wife and daughter and took the initiative to speak: "This family is really too poor!"

"Yes! We only have one or two taels of silver in savings in the entire third house, and we still eat wild vegetable porridge. If it weren't for the meat buns that Zhuzhu gave me, I would have starved to death."

Su felt really uncomfortable. In modern times, her father was the chairman of an international group company.

Her mother is the inheritor of Suzhou embroidery, and her brother is also a real estate tycoon. As the eldest daughter of the Su family, she travels on a private jet and is accompanied by several followers. When has she ever suffered such hardship?

She really couldn't get used to traveling to this desolate place.

"Wife, you've suffered a lot following me!"

Shen Lao San held Su's hand, his face full of guilt.

This dog food is for...

Shen Mingzhu turned her head away. If she hadn't had to discuss future plans with her parents tonight, she wouldn't have come to eat this dog food.

Unable to bear her parents' nagging, Shen Mingzhu interrupted them.

"Okay, okay, stop being so annoying, both of you. Let's think about how to solve the current dilemma, okay?"

The three of them began to plan their future lives, and finally decided unanimously that Shen Lao San would continue to study and take the imperial examinations.

Su continued to embroider, and Shen Mingzhu learned embroidery from Su while learning calligraphy from Shen Lao San. She could also follow Shen Lao Tai to the mountains and look for opportunities to use the system to improve her life.

Early in the morning, when it was still light, the Shen family finished their breakfast and Old Man Shen took Shen Mingbao to the private school.

Shen Lao Er took Shen Mingshan to the fields, while Zhong got up to make breakfast and feed the pigs. Shen Lao San, for the first time ever, brought back two buckets of water.

As for Su, since she moved to a new place and slept on a wooden bed covered with straw, she did not sleep well last night. She could not resist the sleepiness and fell asleep only this morning.

The Su family had always been like this in the past, and everyone was used to it. After breakfast, Old Lady Shen took Old Third Shen and Shen Mingzhu up the mountain.

Pushing aside the vines in front of her, Old Lady Shen said to Shen Mingzhu behind her: "Zhuzhu, follow me closely, don't get lost."

Shen Lao San swung his aching arms, pinched his bruised shoulders, and said breathlessly:

"This mountain is so high. It's really tiring."

Old Lady Shen glanced at Old Third Shen and said, "How many years have you been in the city? How come you have forgotten that you are from the countryside so quickly? Don't forget, you are a child from the mountains. If you can't even endure this little hardship, what will you do in the future?"

Shen Laosan lowered his head bitterly.

Yes! It has only been a few years since he moved to the city! Has he forgotten the hardship he once had in the countryside?

He looked at Old Lady Shen who was climbing the mountain in front of him, and an indescribable look flashed in his eyes.

In her previous life, Shen Mingzhu loved mountain climbing. Not only that, she also learned survival skills in the wild.

Because she is naturally strong, she also learned Taekwondo, and climbing is not unfamiliar to her.

There is no pollution from modern industry here, the air is fresh, and the lush trees and grass around make people feel very comfortable.

Standing on the top of the mountain, Shen Mingzhu looked at the village below and felt refreshed.

"Grandma, do you think we will encounter rabbits today?"

Shen Mingzhu's eyes sparkled with stars. This body was really greedy for meat.

It would be great if I could find a wild rabbit in the mountains to have a snack today!

Just as she was lost in thought, a loud bang attracted their attention.

A wild rabbit suddenly jumped out from the grass and hit the big tree next to Shen Mingzhu, and fainted.

"No way?"

Shen Mingzhu widened her eyes and stared at the stupid rabbit in disbelief.

Is she just sitting back and waiting?

Old Lady Shen reacted the fastest. She rushed forward, grabbed the gray rabbit's ears, and laughed heartily:

"Haha, our Zhuzhu is so lucky! When we said a rabbit would come, a stupid rabbit really came. Haha, this stupid rabbit voluntarily came to your bowl."

"No, Zhuzhu, this can't be exchanged by your system, right?"

Shen Laosan was a little unconvinced.

Shen Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, then quickly stepped forward and grabbed the stupid rabbit.

"No, this is not something I exchanged. Why am I so lucky today?"

Old Lady Shen quickly pulled out some straw and twisted it into a rope. She quickly tied up the rabbit and put it in the backpack carried by Old Third Shen.

"My Zhuzhu is very capable. If you follow me, you will have meat to eat."

Old Mrs. Shen pinched Zhuzhu's little face and smiled.

"Well, we will all have meat to eat from now on. I will make whatever you want to eat."

Seeing that her father was in a daze, Shen Mingzhu did not disturb him and walked straight forward with Old Lady Shen.

Mr. Shen read a lot in his previous life and always believed in science. He did not believe in ghosts and gods and was a true atheist.

Not only did the whole family's time travel overturn his three views, but the redemption system that Zhuzhu mentioned and his good luck this time also made him a little overwhelmed.

However, he had a strong ability to accept things and quickly came to his senses, smiling and following Shen Mingzhu and the others.

"Ding... Wild purslane is ten cents a pound. Host, do you want to exchange it?"

Shen Mingzhu paused while holding the purslane, and asked in surprise, "The system accepts purslane? And it's ten cents per pound?"

"Of course. The wild vegetables here are natural and pollution-free. Wild vegetables like purslane have their own fragrance and unique flavor. They have not been artificially fertilized or sprayed with pesticides."

"The host can sell it to the end world through our system and earn a lot of points! Our system can also earn a lot of points."

The dog system spoke proudly, and as it spoke, it realized that something was wrong.

When it saw Shen Mingzhu's half-smiley eyes, it realized that it had said the wrong thing and quickly explained:

"No, host, you know there is no free lunch in the world. Our system provides you with space and transactions, so we must get benefits!"

"Besides, these price differences are not collected by this system, but by the main system. The points are not what I want." The voice of the system became smaller and smaller.

Shen Mingzhu stopped picking wild vegetables, crossed her arms, and said with a smile, as if she would not exchange it unless you explained it clearly:

"I'm afraid you can get a lot of benefits too?"

The system said guiltily: "Well, there are a few points. Isn't this for system upgrades?"

"The system has been upgraded, and you, the host, will also benefit! Not only can you exchange for more items on the interface, but you can also..."

Shen Mingzhu didn't want to argue with it. "Stop, stop, stop. Wild purslane, 15 cents a pound. Take it or not."

The system thought for a moment and finally agreed to charge 15 cents per pound of purslane.

Shen Mingzhu smiled secretly. There wasn't much else in this world, but there were a lot of wild vegetables. These wild vegetables could be found everywhere in the mountains and were worthless.

Normally, no one would buy it at one cent per pound, but she could sell it at 15 cents per pound through the system, which is equivalent to 15 yuan in modern times.

The purchasing power of 15 cents in this world is also very good. You know, the brown rice and dark noodles that their family eats are only 5 cents per catty, the white refined rice is only 10 cents per catty, and the white noodles are 8 cents per catty.

One pound of purslane can buy almost two pounds of white flour. Thinking of white flour buns, Shen Mingzhu swallowed her saliva.

This body is too greedy, she must improve the food.
