After Jiang Yan finished speaking, she bowed to Zhang Xiaoqi and his wife, then turned around timidly and walked towards the river with her daughter in her arms.

Jiang Yan: She has long developed the temperament to face the wind and rain, so it is really difficult for her to pretend to be a little white flower now.

“…” Guan looked at Jiang’s back, not understanding why she went to the river, and looked at her man.

Zhang Xiaoqi told his wife that there were no empty houses nearby, and Guan said that this was inappropriate.

Zhang Xiaoqi had his own considerations. "I think it's good for them to live on the other side of the river. If nothing else, the Shen family is a bunch of scoundrels. They can't always bully them."

"Didn't they separate the family and cut off the relationship?"

"So what if the relationship is severed? The Shen family is such a ruthless family that they can easily let these two go. The sun will rise in the north."

(Sun: Who did it offend today? Why do you always want it to come out in the north?)

"That's right. The most inhumane person in the Shen family is the eldest daughter-in-law of Shen. She's so mean. She's not even afraid of being struck to death by rain or thunder."

"There's little rain in our area, so there's never a chance of thunder."

"Come on, let's go back to the house and eat. After dinner, I'll go with you to take a look across the street."

"That's great. Otherwise, I, a grown man, would be standing so close to a young widow, and I'd be really worried that people would gossip about me."

"If anyone dares to murmur, I'll beat him to a pulp. I have the same last name as him."

"Hahaha." Zhang Xiaoqi laughed heartily. He really admired his wife's aggressiveness. In this world, if a woman wasn't aggressive, she would suffer.

...

On the river section in front of Zhang's yard, there is a simple stone bridge built with large stones.

This was the first time Jiang Yan had ever seen a stone bridge like this in real life. It was early spring, and although the ice on the river had melted, there were still shards of ice in the shade near the bank.

Jiang Yan carefully carried her daughter across the rocks, a thin layer of sweat appearing on her back.

Yichen was very happy and couldn't take her eyes off the clear river water.

"Mom, the unpolluted river water here is so nice! I finally understand what true clarity and transparency are. Look, the pebbles at the bottom of the river are also very beautiful."

"Baby, call me mom." Seeing her daughter calling her mom again, Jiang Yan quickly corrected her.

"Mother~"

"Hey!"

After the mother and daughter crossed the river, Jiang Yan put her daughter on a relatively flat piece of grass and sat down on a tree stump nearby.

Only now did she deeply realize how weak this body was. It was a miracle that she could hold on until now.

Alas, Jiang Yan looked up at the high sky and tried to relax herself.

Who knew that when my mind was relaxed, my body would feel more tired.

Yichen also noticed that something was wrong with her mother's condition.

"Mom... Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing her daughter's concerned eyes, Jiang Yan cheered herself up and pretended to be calm, "Mom, I'm fine. I'm just a little tired."

"Mother~"

"Mom is really fine, just rest for a while."

After Jiang Yan finished speaking, she secretly took out a glass of boiled water at home, covered it with her sleeve, and fed it to her daughter. She drank the rest, and her condition improved a little.

Seeing her mother's tired face, Yichen turned behind her sensibly and rubbed her back with her clenched fists.

Jiang Yan felt a warm feeling in her heart as she felt her daughter's small fists hitting her back again and again. This also reminded her that she had a wood-related ability.

Jiang Yan knew that the wood-related ability could not only regulate her own body functions, but also regulate and treat other people.

For the sake of her daughter's small body, she has to start practicing as early as possible.

Thinking of this, she felt hopeful, so she stood up and wanted to carry her daughter towards the dilapidated house not far away.

"Mom, I can walk by myself." Yichen said this, but fearing that her mother would not agree, she struggled to break free from her mother's hand and walked forward along the path she had trampled out.

Seeing that her daughter was so small and insisted on walking by herself, Jiang Yan did not force her to hold her.

After all, she knew her own body well, and she knew she couldn't hold on for long, so she didn't try to be brave.

The mother and daughter were thinking about their future residence, and their steps quickened unconsciously. When they approached the dilapidated house covered with weeds, the disappointment in their hearts was indescribable.

"Mom, this place is so shabby, even TV dramas wouldn't dare film it like this."

"It's quite shabby. Everything else is fine, but the weather is getting warmer. What if there are snakes, insects, rats or ants?"

When talking about snakes, insects, rats and ants, both mother and daughter shuddered involuntarily.

There's no way, both mother and daughter don't like to see those things.

"Mom, I have an idea. Let's first build a temporary shack according to the local conditions, and then slowly build two new houses."

Although Yichen is only a middle school student, her hobby is watching wilderness survival games. She's never tried it herself, but she's still itching to try it.

This time she had the chance, and she wanted to show her skills. However, this small body constrained her fifteen-year-old soul and hindered her from performing normally.

Jiang Yan had no idea what to do, and her daughter's words reminded her that she might as well do as her daughter suggested.

The weather had just started to warm up, giving them several months to practice.

After the mother and daughter made up their minds, they began to carefully examine the land. After a careful inspection, they felt that the natural conditions here were really good.

The cliff that reaches up to the sky is a natural barrier on its back. To the west, the remnants of the cliff slowly stretch into the distance, and to the east, it is surrounded by a small river.

"Mom, this piece of land is really nice. If no one disturbs me, it's perfect for me to live in seclusion."

"Ah."

"Mom, when that flag bearer comes later, tell him: This piece of land belongs to us for cultivation."

"All the land on this side of the river?"

"Yes!"

"Chenchen, such a large piece of land looks like it must be at least ten acres."

"Maybe more."

"Will we plant all those little flags?"

"There are eleven households here, including the two of us. Look at the land across the way, Mom. It remains to be seen whether the ten households can even farm on it."

"It's best to let him bring it up himself."

"Yes. Master Xiaoqi had better say that this piece of land is yours to farm. Remember, don't be lazy. If you really can't plant that much, you must plant the full five acres. Five acres, remember, five acres!"

As soon as Yichen finished speaking in a baby voice, a hearty laugh came from not far away.

"Hahaha, little girl, how do you know that this is what I think?"

Yichen: “Hehe~” She pretended to be shy and ran behind her mother, burying her little face behind her skirt.

"This little girl is really smart. She spoke directly to my heart. From now on, this piece of land will belong to you and your mother. It doesn't matter if you can't plant it all. But remember, you have to plant at least five acres, no less."
