The casual life of the flat space

Chapter 10 The Joy of Contracting

There were no surprises in the house. Bai Tieying opened the gate and walked out, hoping that the outside would not disappoint her.

Turning right after leaving the courtyard gate of Bai Tieying's house is a field of pagodas. Because there is a swamp below, few people go there. Less than ten feet ahead of the road facing the courtyard gate is the original land of her family.

This is the north of Yu Country, separated from the neighboring country by a mountain range that stretches for who knows how many miles. Although it is extremely fertile black soil, due to the terrain, there is not much arable land, so it is sparsely populated.

But the crops here are high in yield and the food is delicious. Every autumn, merchants come from far away to buy food. There are few natural disasters, so since the ancestors of the Bai family fled here, they have lived here for more than ten generations. This time, they really have no choice but to sell the land.

Turning left, there is a path about three feet wide. To the north of the path is the river beach, and to the south is the farmland of the Bai family and other villagers. Walking along the path for about thirty feet, you will see the houses of the village.

Now there is the same path in Bai Tieying's space, but the path is not that long, and it is foggy ten feet away.

Bai Tieying thought about it and turned back. She wanted to see if the other side was the same as she had guessed.

She walked north along the wicker screen, turned around at the end and saw that it was exactly as she had thought.

In front of me is the sandy land, the river beach and the clear stream. There are a few stepping stones upstream of the river and green grass on the opposite bank. It seems that I can even see the tray trees at the foot of the mountain.

Bai Tieying couldn't help but show his eight little white teeth and said, "I won't say the space is flat anymore, okay? It's simply a paradise!"

Before, she saw that the space was not as good as she had imagined. Although she felt lucky, she was still a little depressed. But now she just wanted to say, "God will not let the sparrow starve to death." Her good luck is back!

With this excitement in her heart, she walked and thought, it seems that her previous guess was right, the space was indeed copying and pasting the places she walked through. If this situation continues, then she will be rich!

Jumping over the stepping stones upstream she reached the other side of the river, but her mood was quite different from that of the day.

Wild flowers of various colors bloomed beautifully on the grass. Golden, pure white, light pink, royal blue, and light purple, the colorful flowers showed their grace to her in clusters and clumps.

Bai Tieying's childishness came to her mind. Oh, no, she was a little girl now! She ran to the grass quickly and started picking wild flowers here and there. Soon she had picked a large bunch.

After pulling a few wild wormwoods and tying the flowers into a bunch, Bai Tieying held the wild flowers and continued to walk to the foot of the mountain. As expected, the tray was also here.

"I don't have the freedom of durian or cherry, but I can still have the freedom of the tray! This is as happy as a mouse falling into a rice jar, okay?"

Bai Tieying put down the wild flowers, and kept pulling at the tray with her little hands. While eating, she thought, "If I pick these and put them by the bed, I wonder how happy little Potato will be when he opens his eyes in the morning and sees the surprise I customized for him! Oh, it's a pity that I didn't bring any tools to pack things, but it's too far to go back and get them!"

Bai Tieying was hesitating when she suddenly found herself in the kitchen in the blink of an eye.

"What's going on? Did I come back here just now because I wanted to get something?"

Just thinking about it, Bai Tieying shivered. It was so cold outside! He took the two bowls with broken edges, and quickly ran to the well to get the wicker basket and handle. Then he found the knife for digging vegetables under the window. Thinking that there was nothing else he needed, Bai Tieying returned to the kitchen, silently thinking about returning to the space.

This time she opened her eyes wide, and then she saw a magical scene - like the superimposed transition in a video clip, the real world and her space slowly overlapped, melted, and transitioned, and then she came to the space.

There are so many magical things in this space. She must explore it when she has time. Now her first priority is to fill her stomach.

Bai Tieying put food into two bowls while eating, and soon they were full. Bai Tieying burped, and there were still many trays on the branches "showing off" to her...

"Family members, who understands? The happiness of contracting a pallet tree is really great!"

Bai Tieying learned a line from a funny video, happily installed the handle on the wicker basket, and then took the small knife that could be used for three miles without hurting the butt and started digging wild vegetables.

I don’t know how long I took to dig, but Bai Tieying’s hair was dry. Looking at the half basket of wild vegetables, I can concentrate on finding meat tomorrow!

Thinking of meat, Bai Tieying suddenly remembered the fish in the river! She threw the knife into the basket, put the two bowls and trays side by side in the basket, and walked towards the river holding her bunch of wild flowers.

"As expected, I can't have all the good things to myself."

Bai Tieying squatted by the river and watched for a long time but didn't see any fish. Even the conch shells that were often seen on the rocks by the river were gone. Then she thought about it and realized that she didn't hear any frogs or birds singing for half a day. Does that mean she is the only living thing in this space?

Can we put other creatures in here? Let’s go to the river outside and try it tomorrow. If it works, I will be promoted to the owner of the pond!

And the river water is so clear that it looks like you can drink it directly. Bai Tieying scooped it up with her hands and it was still not cold. "I must come swim in the river when I have time!"

Fearing that the wild flowers would wither quickly, Bai Tieying soaked the whole bunch of flowers in the river water, and then picked and washed the wild vegetables in the river water. Constantly stimulated by the surprises of this space, Bai Tieying did not feel tired at all.

After picking up the wild vegetables and taking out the wild flowers that had become vibrant due to the replenishment of water, Bai Tieying walked towards the mud house while wondering what other functions this great treasure of space had?

As she walked, she suddenly thought, since the outside world and space can be connected, can she walk freely in space?

Bai Tieying stood there, silently thinking about going back to the courtyard. Haha, you’ve been overthinking. You should just go back on foot!

Back in the courtyard, Bai Tieying put down the wicker basket and touched the clothes on the shoji screen. They were all dry. As he put on his clothes one by one, Bai Tieying thought: "It's really not easy to accept different cultural habits in a different time and space. Fortunately, the clothes here are similar to the ancient clothes in the original world."

Bai Tieying used to be a model for ancient costumes. Although she had to change more than 30 sets of clothes a day and her hair was almost bald from repeated styling, that was the easiest time for her to make money. She paid off half a semester's tuition in just three days!

It's a pity that she was just working for someone else by chance and never had another chance afterwards, otherwise she wouldn't have to work so hard for three years to pay off the money.

The ancient clothes are really beautiful, but she can't wear them. This dress was made from her mother's old clothes, and it was a wedding dress, but it was just a blue-gray linen dress. It has been worn for many years and the original color can no longer be seen. Now it only has an old feeling that has not been washed clean.
