Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

The matter of Yin Yin studying with Yu Shuming has finally been settled.

Although their parents thought they were just playing around, both Yu Shuming and Yin Yin took it very seriously.

A few days later, Yin Yin was taken to her parents by Yu Shuming. She did a few addition and subtraction problems within ten and recited a quatrain. Only then did they realize what was going on.

My daughter seems to be smarter than other kids.

From then on, Yin Yin's carefree life of lying down was gone forever, and her parents became more mindful of their words and actions in front of her.

Although they didn't demand that Yin Yin become a certain way, their subtle and gradual teachings in daily life had, to some extent, shown Yin Yin what kind of person they hoped she would become.

In response, Yin Yin had no choice but to gradually change her course.

However, she still has her age as a shield, and when it's time to be cute and willful, she will still act cute and willful.

Being guided by her older brother to study meant that Yin Yin had less time to practice her internal martial arts, but in return, she was exposed to more things.

Just like now, when Yin Yin went to her eldest brother's study, she saw someone inside and was about to leave when she was stopped.

“Why are you running?” Yu Shuming said. “There’s nothing shameful about it.”

Yinyin then re-entered the room, glancing curiously at the person standing inside—a stranger she had never seen before: "I was just worried that my brother might have a secret."

"You're not that old, but you think a lot," Yu Shuming said, propping his head up. "If you had a secret, wouldn't I have sent someone to tell you earlier that you didn't need to come over?"

"Big brother is right. I was being petty and judging others by my own standards," Yin Yin said, drawing out her words. Coupled with her cute little expression, it was impossible not to laugh.

Once Yin Yin had Yu Shuming hold her and sit down beside him, she immediately noticed the open box on the table and the contents inside.

With just one glance, Yin Yin recognized it. Aren't these potatoes and sweet potatoes, which are almost indispensable in farming novels and conquering the world? Big brother has already found them so quickly?

"Big brother, are these the seeds of some kind of flower?"

“It is a seed, but not a flower, but a grain,” Yu Shuming said. “With these two things, the people of the world will have a better chance of survival.”

"They grow like this, and they can actually be used as food," Yin Yin said, feigning surprise. "If they're so good, why didn't anyone grow them before? Did they just not know?"

“Of course, some people know this, but everything has its advantages and disadvantages,” Yu Shuming said calmly. “These potatoes and sweet potatoes are no exception.”

“If they are grown well, the yield is not low, but they have high requirements for soil fertility, and there are many pests and diseases. There is also a risk of seed degeneration. Eating too much of them can also cause some other discomfort.”

Seeing how knowledgeable he was about these two things, Yin Yin felt relieved: "Then I understand. Nobody knows if we'll be able to harvest anything from these plants."

"Moreover, the government doesn't collect these taxes, so it's likely that even fewer people will plant them."

“That makes sense,” Yu Shuming said. “So I found it and we’ll try it out in Qin County first. If it grows well, we’ll promote it elsewhere.”

After saying that, Yu Shuming closed the box, handed the items to the person inside the room, told him to leave, and then said to Yinyin, "I asked my father to find a bodyguard with good martial arts skills to train with. You will come with me this afternoon. No matter how well you train, it will help you get better."

Yin Yin would definitely like to learn the moves openly and honestly, but on the surface, she pretended to be unwilling and pleaded with Yu Shuming for a few words, offering him delicious food in exchange before she reluctantly agreed.

As Yu Shuming himself said, the main reason he had Yin Yin learn martial arts was for her health.

Staying in his room all day sleeping or reading, the furthest he ever walked was from Yin Yin's own room to his study, which was definitely not going to work.

Find a reason for her to go out more, so he can keep an eye on her; it's a win-win situation.

However, to Yu Shuming's surprise, his sister seemed to be even more talented than him, and her moves were all quite accurate.

Seeing that Yu Shuming was staring at her, Yin Yin, who was originally a little smug, felt the hairs on her body stand on end.

"Brother, what are you thinking about?"

“I just want to…” Yu Shuming paused, “Yinyin, study hard and become a great general for me in the future.”

Yinyin's eyes lit up, and she was about to agree when she heard Madam Xun's voice.

"Shuming, Yinyin is a girl. What kind of girl goes to the battlefield to fight and kill?"

“Mom, girls can go to the battlefield too,” Yin Yin gestured with her hands, “Then I’ll do this, then this, and I’ll help my brother defeat the bad guys in no time!”

“Okay,” Yu Shuming chimed in from the side, “then I can rely on Yinyin to protect me from now on.”

Seeing the brother and sister talking to themselves, Madam Xun didn't take the earlier incident to heart. She just stood by and watched for a while, and only handed them handkerchiefs to wipe their sweat after they finished practicing.

"Yinyin is amazing. She actually managed to persevere with her brother."

“I’m going to be a great general someday, what’s this?” Yin Yin said, and before her mother could speak, she touched her stomach. “Mom, do you have any snacks? Yin Yin is hungry!”

Her interruption made Madam Xun forget what she was about to say, and she led the brother and sister back: "Knowing that you have worked hard, I had someone prepare water chestnut cakes earlier."

"Didn't Yinyin ask last time if the tea powder could be added in? The kitchen has got some today, so you can try it."

Yinyin's eyes lit up: "If Mom says so, it must be delicious! Let's go, let's go!"

The house wasn't big, and the three of them walked a few steps to the main room. Yinyin immediately spotted the water chestnut cake placed on the small table.

To make them easier to eat, the pastries were specially cut into thumb-sized pieces, and the addition of tea powder gave them a beautiful green color.

Because of her anticipation, Yin Yin felt that the air was filled with a sweet fragrance.

No matter how anxious she was, Yinyin still washed her hands with bath soap and wiped her face before heading over there.

Yinyin picked up a piece of water chestnut cake, but first smelled the aroma on her hand.

"Big brother, the bath beans you made this time smell so good."

“I’d like to have more sent to you,” Yu Shuming said. “In the fall, there will be another batch of fragrant osmanthus blossoms.”

"Thank you, big brother," Yin Yin said, then ate the pastry in her hand in one big bite.

Upon seeing this, Yu Shuming quickly pushed the rosewater mixed with honey water in front of her, saying, "Eat slowly, or you might choke."

Yinyin took a sip of the honey water, and the water chestnut cake in her mouth seemed to melt away, easily going down into her stomach.

"Don't worry, big brother, I'm not eating in a hurry, I won't choke," Yin Yin said, then used the clean chopsticks next to her to pick up a piece and put it to her brother's mouth. "This time it tastes good, big brother, you should try it, it's the kind of sweet that you like, not too sweet!"

Yu Shuming took a piece from Yin Yin's hand, thought it was good, and then took the chopsticks and ate it himself.

Just as Yinyin was about to pick up a new piece, she suddenly heard someone coming and going.

"The Prince has returned to the manor!"
