After time travel, share a space with your modern family.
Chapter 47 Reuniting with Modern Family Space
Ruan Mumu's days were tense and busy, after all, she had to work hard to gain a foothold in this ancient world, so she didn't have time to think about too many other things.
The day that Ruan Mumu had arranged to meet her modern family arrived quickly.
On this highly anticipated day, Ruan Mumu made a special excuse to go to town alone. She found an inn, booked a top-tier room, settled the carriage, went into the room, closed the door, and then "whoosh" entered her spatial dimension.
Meanwhile, the Ruan family in the modern world had been eagerly anticipating this day.
"Dad, Mom, I'm so excited! I'm finally going to see my sister!" Ruan Yanyan and her family waited in her parents' room for midnight to arrive.
"Haohao, Yanyan, are you ready?" Ruan Wanfu took a deep breath and asked his sons.
"Okay, Dad, we're all ready," Ruan Haohao and Ruan Yanyan said in unison.
Ruan Wanfu and Zhang Yufang looked at the clock on the wall. Time passed slowly, and finally, the minute hand pointed to twelve o'clock.
"Go in!" The four members of the Ruan family shouted in unison, holding hands.
In an instant, they seemed to be in another world, everything around them becoming blurry. However, when they opened their eyes again, they found themselves still standing in the same place, with no apparent change. But a strange feeling welled up inside them, making them realize that they were now in a different space.
"Hello, Mr. Zi, has Mumu arrived yet?" Ruan Wanfu called softly, his heart filled with anticipation.
"Dear Mr. Ruan, welcome. The host is waiting for you in the living room on the first floor. Please come down to the first floor and you will see him." The purple elf's voice was still cold, but at this moment it sounded particularly pleasant.
Before the words were even finished, Ruan Haohao and Ruan Yanyan, unable to contain their excitement, rushed downstairs. When their eyes fell on the slightly thin figure in the living room, joy surged into their hearts like a tide.
"Mumu..."
"elder sister……"
The two people's surprised voices echoed in the living room, filled with longing and joy.
Ruan Mumu sat on the sofa, closed her eyes, and wanted to rest for a while. Before she could rest, she heard heavy footsteps coming from the stairs.
She quickly opened her eyes and saw two tall, handsome men standing before her. Their faces were filled with excitement and joy, and their eyes revealed their longing for Ruan Mumu.
However, when they reached Ruan Mumu, they suddenly stopped, seemingly afraid to take another step forward. Their expressions held a hint of hesitation and fear, as if they worried that this was just an illusionary dream that would shatter if touched.
"Big brother, Yan Yan, it's been a long time." Ruan Mumu stood up and smiled at the two men. Her gaze was gentle yet firm, making them feel the warmth of her real presence.
Ruan Mumu slowly walked towards them, gently opened her arms, and embraced them tightly. At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and the three of them were immersed in the joy of their reunion.
"Mumu..." Ruan Haohao called softly, his voice filled with endless longing and relief.
"Sister... uh, looking at your petite frame, I'm almost embarrassed to call you 'sister.' 'Little sister' would be more appropriate, haha..." Ruan Yanyan teased, looking at the small girl in front of him. His hearty laughter was like a gentle breeze, instantly dispelling the sadness that filled the air.
Upon hearing this, Ruan Mumu's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile. She gently punched Ruan Yanyan's shoulder and said coquettishly, "You brat, even though I'm younger than you now, you've called me 'sister' for over twenty years. Even if I were in a different body now, you'd still have to call me 'sister'." Her eyes revealed a tenderness that was irresistible.
Ruan Yanyan smiled helplessly and muttered, "Dad, Mom, look at her, she's such a little one, and she still wants me to call her 'sister.' I don't accept that." As he spoke, he secretly cast a pleading glance toward the stairwell.
At that moment, two figures finally appeared at the top of the stairs, slowly walking towards the three of them.
With tears glistening in her eyes, Ruan Mumu excitedly called out, "Dad, Mom!" She rushed to greet her parents, embracing them tightly and feeling their warmth and love.
"Mumu, how are you doing over there?" Zhang Yufang asked with concern, looking at her daughter's thin figure with heartache. Her voice was full of worry and concern, which moved everyone present.
Ruan Mumu turned around on the spot, then said to her family with a grin, "Look, apart from not being as tall as I used to be, not being as agile as I used to be, uh... and not keeping up with my age, I'm still the same me." She put her hands on her hips, a playful look on her face.
"Hey, what kind of material are you wearing? I bet even our parents didn't wear clothes this rough when they were kids." Ruan Yanyan looked at Ruan Mumu's clothes curiously, pinched them lightly with her fingers, and showed a hint of disgust.
Ruan Mumu smiled and explained, "Most of the fabric over there is this rough. The fabric of my clothes is already considered good. We farmers wear coarse linen clothes because they are cheap and durable." She gently touched her clothes, a hint of helplessness flashing in her eyes.
Upon hearing this, Ruan Yanyan frowned, looked at Ruan Mumu with concern, and asked, "Are you doing alright over there? Have you suffered any mistreatment?"
Ruan Mumu quickly shook her head and replied with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm doing quite well over there. Although the living conditions are a bit tough, my family there takes good care of me, and things will gradually get better. Although we can't get together often, we both have our own different lives now, so let's live our lives well together."
Ruan Mumu recounted her experiences in ancient times during this period.
She began to recount how, after the family split up, she took a glass and a lantern from the spatial realm, sold them for a considerable sum of money, bought a mountain and a carriage for her family, started building a house, prepared for her elder brother's wedding in ancient times, and even discovered a hot spring pool on her family's mountain...
The four listened to Ruan Mumu recount her life and experiences in ancient times, feeling a mix of relief, worry, and comfort.
"Mumu, come on, let's go take a look. We've prepared a lot of things for you. See which ones you can use right now?" Ruan Wanfu suggested to lighten the somewhat somber atmosphere.
Then the four of them went to the storage room.
"Mumu, look, this is a rechargeable lamp I bought for you, and this is a rechargeable fan, and this is a flashlight..." Ruan Haohao excitedly introduced the items he had prepared for Ruan Mumu, his face beaming with pride and satisfaction.
"Sister, these are the books, notebooks, pencils, ballpoint pens, fountain pens, and ink I prepared for you. You probably won't be used to using a calligraphy brush over there, so I prepared these for you." Ruan Yanyan couldn't wait to introduce the things she had prepared, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.
“Mumu, look, these are farm tools. Take any you need. I don’t know how things are going over there, so I haven’t prepared too many things for you yet. Oh, and I also bought a few machetes, kitchen knives, and sickles. See if there’s anything else you need, and tell Dad. Next time, Dad will prepare things for you in advance.” Ruan Wanfu said gently to Ruan Mumu, his eyes revealing deep fatherly love.
Looking at the dazzling array of items before her, Ruan Mumu felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She felt the care and love her family had for her, a love that made her feel incredibly happy. She looked gratefully at her father and brothers, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Thank you, Dad, Big Brother, Yan Yan, these are what I need most. With these things, my life will be much more convenient," Ruan Mumu said emotionally.
Ruan Wanfu gently patted Ruan Mumu's shoulder and comforted her, "Child, this is what we should do. As long as you are doing well, we are at ease. If you encounter any difficulties or need any help in the future, be sure to tell us."
Ruan Haohao and Ruan Yanyan also expressed their continued support and care for Ruan Mumu. The family embraced tightly, sharing the warmth of kinship. At that moment, they were closer together, their hearts intertwined.
"By the way, brother, I just signed a contract with a doctor to open a clinic with him. Could you help me find some medical books, especially those about surgery, as well as human skeleton diagrams, acupoint diagrams, and so on? Also, could you prepare two sets of surgical instruments, a stethoscope, and so on? I plan to give them to the doctor as gifts." Ruan Mumu suddenly realized that these things were impossible to buy in that era, so she asked her brother to prepare them for her.
"No problem, I'll take care of it!" Ruan Haohao patted his chest and assured him.
"Is there anything we can prepare for your family's house construction?" Ruan Haohao suddenly remembered what his younger sister might need most right now.
“Yes, Mumu, think about it, what do we need to prepare?” Ruan Wanfu asked with concern.
"Dad, please prepare five squat toilets for me. I plan to install them in the new house, otherwise it will be too inconvenient. Also, Dad, could you help me buy some water pipes and such? I plan to bring spring water from the mountain for home use," Ruan Mumu instructed Ruan Wanfu.
“Okay, daughter, leave this to Dad.” Ruan Wanfu said with a smile.
"Yan Yan, do you know if there's any way to get some self-defense weapons?" Ruan Mumu thought about how she was unarmed in ancient times. If she encountered any danger, she could escape, but what about her family back there?
"Okay, sis, I think we should buy a few stun guns or something first. If we could get a gun, that would be even better, but those things are hard to come by. Let's use stun guns for self-defense for now!" Ruan Yanyan suggested.
Ruan Mumu nodded in agreement.
“Mumu, think about it yourself. If there’s anything you need, just tell us. If you can’t think of anything right now, write it down when you do, and tell us next time we meet,” Ruan Wanfu said again.
Ruan Mumu looked at her family with gratitude, her heart filled with warmth and emotion. She knew they would do everything in their power to help her and make her life better. At the same time, she looked forward to an even better future.
