At the beginning of the famine, I became famous all over the world with my useless system

Gu Damao's words made the children's eyes red. Seeing this, Gu Ermiao quickly changed the subject and tried to ease the atmosphere.

"Brother Wen, just treat this place as your own home. Don't worry, stay here. Feel free to ask for anything you want."

Even though Xing Wenjie had doubts about Lin Qing, he was deeply touched by the concern of several of his peers, and his heart was warm.

Unconsciously, he raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Thank you."

Lin Qing had just finished his long speech and was already extremely thirsty, but seeing that the soup in the bowl was finished and there was not much left in the pot, he could only lick his dry lips.

Gu Sihe was very considerate and brought the kettle over to fill it for her, saying, "Mom, have some water!"

"Hey, you're so good!"

Lin Qing smiled, took the water and drank it in one gulp.

Strangely enough, although Songsi Village suffered from famine, the water was sweet and refreshing, and after drinking it, one would feel relaxed all over.

After explaining such an important matter as Xing Wenjie's origins, Lin Qing breathed a sigh of relief, put the empty bowl on the table and looked around.

After Gu Damao and Xing Wenjie finished discussing who should call whom "brother", he smiled like a class teacher checking homework.

"You three, come and tell me what you have gained today. Sanmu, you go first."

Gu Sanmu stammered as he reported what he had learned from Song Youzu. When Lin Qing heard him say that he had learned to predict the weather based on the moisture of the soil, a "ding" sound suddenly rang in his mind.

Congratulations! Your team has mastered basic weather forecasting skills! Starting today, submit accurate weather forecasts for three consecutive days to receive a seven-day forecast and extreme weather warnings.

Lin Qing's eyes suddenly lit up.

Wow!

This is a weapon for famine years!

Lin Qing couldn't wait to ask, "In that case, let me test you. Sanmu, what will the weather be like tomorrow?"

Gu Sanmu scratched his head, stammering but unable to explain clearly.

Just when Lin Qing thought she would not get this golden finger, she heard Gu Sanmu say with great confidence: "Mom, tomorrow will be cloudy and the wind will blow from the north."

After Lin Qing submitted the weather forecast in the pop-up dialog box, the prompt sound rang again.

[Ding, congratulations on your accurate prediction. Detailed weather forecast for tomorrow has been opened for you.]

Lin Qing clicked it quickly and saw how detailed the prompts were. They even included information about UV intensity and suitable clothing to wear. The secret passage system was really thoughtful.

Hey, the UV rays here are so intense, maybe we could sell some sunscreen...

Gu Damao saw Sanmu finished speaking and took over the topic, saying, "Mom, Sanmu also gained a lot today. Sihe learned the Thousand Character Classic from me today, and he learned it very well."

Gu Sihe, praised, quickly climbed down from Xing Wenjie and laid on Lin Qing's lap, saying eagerly, "That's right, Mom, I learned ten words today! I can even memorize them!"

Lin Qing smiled and praised him a few times. When she was pinching his slightly fleshy cheeks, she heard Gu Sihe say vaguely:

"Oh, mother, my aunt came back today from the funeral at the Wang family. She came by at noon, but left when she saw you were not there."

Lin Qing suddenly thought of her encounter with Gu Dahuai in town and said, "Then Sihe, go and ask your aunt to come over. If your uncle asks, tell her that I have something urgent to talk to her about!"

Seeing Gu Sihe pouting and looking reluctant, Lin Qing took out a picture book and some candies from the basket and handed them to him.

"go quickly!"

Gu Sihe opened the candy wrapper as if he had found a treasure. The gem-like candy beans shone brightly under the light. He swallowed hard, rewrapped the candy and stuffed it into his arms, then skipped out the door holding the picture book.

When Xing Wenjie heard that guests were coming, he seemed not to want to socialize with others. He quickly stuffed the remaining food into his mouth, held a bun in his mouth, and flew out to the roof.

The four of them, mother and son, stared blankly. Gu Sanmu couldn't help but ask, "Mom, can I learn martial arts from Brother Jie Wen?"

Lin Qing smiled and patted his head, saying, "If you want to learn, go ask him. This is his business, and I naturally can't make the decision for him."

Gu Ermiao nudged his shoulder and urged him, "That's right, Third Brother. I think he seems to like the dagger that Sihe gave you very much. Maybe you can use it as a gift for becoming his disciple."

Gu Sanmu glared at his second brother with a hint of annoyance, and reluctantly stroked the well-hidden dagger, saying, "I, I will prepare a gift myself."

After the brothers laughed and joked for a while, they heard Gou following Gu Sihe into the house.

Lin Qing was shocked to find that after not seeing her for a few days, Gou's cheeks had become thinner, her cheekbones were so high that they seemed unable to support the flesh, her lips were bloodless, and the whites of her eyes were cloudy.

One look and you can tell she hasn't been doing well these past few days.

Gou tucked her hands into her sleeves and asked anxiously, "Sister-in-law, why did you call me over so late? Is there something wrong?"

Seeing her like this, Lin Qing naturally swallowed the questions he wanted to ask, told the children to wash the dishes, and pulled Gou into the bedroom and closed the door.

As soon as Gou entered the room, her eyes were drawn to a piece of cotton cloth on the table. Unexpectedly, Lin Qing pulled her to sit at the table and said:

"Like it, right? This is for you. I was sending Er Miao to town today, and I happened to see it while I was shopping. I thought you would like this pattern, so I bought it for you."

Gou Shiwan had not expected her sister-in-law to be so generous. After being shocked for a while, she stammered, "This, this, can't be done, sister-in-law!"

Having said that, she couldn't help but look at the cloth on the table.

After looking at it for a while, I couldn't help but touch it.

This cloth is so soft, even smoother and softer than a peeled egg. I have never seen such a pattern before, how can it be so beautiful?

She had also been to markets in various places, but had never seen such good cloth!

Ordinary cotton cloth costs one hundred coins per piece, and the piece my sister-in-law has in her hand must cost one hundred and fifty coins...

Even if her family works hard from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, they still can't save that much money.

She didn't do anything, how could she have the nerve to take such a good thing for nothing!

Lin Qing certainly saw through her thoughts, but her pride got the better of her. She needed someone to push her from behind, and she was like a salesperson, introducing herself very enthusiastically:

"Sister-in-law, this cloth isn't just for you. I specially prepared it for Daya as a wedding gift! Look at the pattern; it's neither ostentatious nor old-fashioned. It will definitely look elegant and appropriate on you. Daya is getting married soon, so you and she should each make a new dress so you can show off at the wedding, right?"

These words really touched Gou's heart.

Thinking about the life Daya will have to live in the Wang family, I feel even more sad.

My eyes fell on the cloth again, and I unconsciously began to imagine how eye-catching it would be if I really made it into clothes and wore it.

The Wang family will also know that Daya’s family will support her!
