After time travel, share a space with your modern family.

"You three go ahead and make lunch. Mumu and I will go upstairs to talk about something private, and we'll come down later." After saying that, Zhang Yufang took Ruan Mumu upstairs to Ruan Mumu's room and closed the door.

After being pulled into the room by Zhang Yufang, Ruan Mumu felt a mix of doubt and curiosity. She wondered what private matters Zhang Yufang wanted to discuss with her.

Zhang Yufang smiled mysteriously and said, "Mumu, have you started your period yet? I specially prepared a lot of sanitary napkins for you. Also, your sister-in-law bought you a lot of underwear, in case you're not used to wearing the old-fashioned style. Anyway, you can wear these things underneath, so you don't have to worry about others seeing or suspecting anything."

As she spoke, Zhang Yufang took out a pile of underwear from the closet, then opened a drawer and showed Ruan Mumu that it was filled with sanitary napkins.

Ruan Mumu looked at everything in front of her in surprise, her heart filled with emotion. She hadn't expected Zhang Yufang to be so thoughtful in considering her needs, even preparing feminine hygiene products for her.

"Thank you, Mom. You and my sister-in-law are so thoughtful," Ruan Mumu said gratefully.

Zhang Yufang smiled and shook her head, saying, "We're all family, so it's only right that we don't speak like outsiders."

"Oh, right, Mom, I wanted to write a letter to my sister-in-law to thank her for preparing all these things for me. It's just a pity I won't be able to see her again." Seeing her sister-in-law's kindness, Ruan Mumu felt a warm current welling up in her heart, but at the same time, she was saddened that she would never be able to see her family again.

Zhang Yufang nodded in agreement and said, "Okay, you can write down everything you want to say, and I'll give it to her for you later. I'm sure your sister-in-law will be very happy to receive the letter."

Ruan Mumu smiled brightly and said, "Mom, it's so good to meet you all again. Otherwise, I don't know if I would have had the courage to face so many difficulties in ancient times."

Zhang Yufang smiled and patted Ruan Mumu's head, saying, "Silly child, no matter where you are, you must live strong. If you need any help over there, just ask, and our family will do our best to help you."

Ruan Mumu was moved to tears, deeply feeling the love and warmth of a family. She felt incredibly fortunate to meet such relatives from her past life again in this unfamiliar world.

"Mom, I must have saved the entire galaxy in my past life to be able to be a family with you all again in this life." Ruan Mumu leaned on Zhang Yufang's shoulder, filled with emotion.

"Oh, right, Mumu, I also prepared a few bolts of cotton cloth for you and your family over there. Since I didn't know what kind of clothes you wear there, I didn't prepare any clothes. Remember to take them back and use them. Don't be reluctant to wear them. This is the lowest quality fabric we have here. If I buy something too good, you won't be able to bear wearing it." Zhang Yufang instructed Ruan Mumu.

“Mom, thank you for making such thoughtful preparations. Didn’t the Purple Elf say last time that once he levels up to a certain level, you’ll have a chance to visit my world? I’m determined to work hard to earn money in ancient times so that you can have a chance to travel to my world. But I’ll need your help to earn the money,” Ruan Mumu said.

"Don't worry, as long as your parents are here, we'll definitely take care of anything we can do for you." Zhang Yufang felt a little sad looking at her daughter's thin body, but thinking that her daughter had been independent since she was a child and was sure she could take care of herself, she didn't say anything more.

"Mom, I'll write a letter to my sister-in-law first. Wait for me a moment." After saying that, Ruan Mumu went to her desk to find stationery and a pen.

"Oh dear, it feels like it's been ages since I've written a letter since I got a cell phone." Ruan Mumu searched her desk but couldn't find any stationery, so she could only write in a blank notebook.

Zhang Yufang suddenly thought, "Should I get my daughter a cell phone? I can download songs, TV series, and movies for her so she can listen to music or watch movies and TV series even in ancient times."

"Mumu, do you want me to download some songs or TV shows to your phone?" Zhang Yufang asked tentatively.

"Mom, sure, you can make me one next time. And also get me some recipes and seasonings, I need to have a way to make a living, right? I'm planning to cook something and sell it," Ruan Mumu replied with interest.

After finishing her sentence, Ruan Mumu went back to writing her letter. She felt she had so much to say to her sister-in-law, but for a moment she didn't know how to express it.

"Mom, Mumu, come down for dinner." Just then, Ruan Haohao's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

Hearing her brother's call, Ruan Mumu hurriedly finished writing, handed the letter to Zhang Yufang, then got up, took Zhang Yufang's hand, and went downstairs together.

As the family sat around the table to eat, the clock had already quietly struck one o'clock. It was a bit late for them to eat lunch at this hour, but everyone's face was filled with happy smiles, and no one paid attention to these details.

"Come on, Mumu, try Dad's braised pork." Ruan Wanfu smiled and placed a piece of tempting, fragrant braised pork into Ruan Mumu's bowl. The piece of pork was marbled with fat and lean meat, and looked very delicious.

"Mumu, this is Kung Pao Chicken that your older brother made." Not to be outdone, Ruan Haohao quickly picked up a piece of tender and juicy chicken for Ruan Mumu.

Seeing this, Ruan Yanyan and Zhang Yufang also picked up their chopsticks and began serving Ruan Mumu various dishes. The bowl, which was originally less than a bowl of rice, was instantly piled up into a small mountain, filled with the family's love and care.

Looking at the full bowl of rice in front of her, Ruan Mumu was filled with emotion. She raised her head, her gaze sweeping over her parents, older brother, and younger brother, her eyes glistening with tears: "Mom and Dad, older brother, Yan Yan, thank you all. It's such a wonderful coincidence that we can reunite here today!" Her voice trembled slightly, filled with deep gratitude.

Although the meal was simple, it was a rare time for Ruan Mumu's family to reunite.

Ruan Mumu suddenly seemed to remember something and turned to Ruan Haohao, saying, "Big brother, we have to have a drink together. Go get it."

Ruan Yanyan looked at Ruan Mumu and said teasingly, "What are you drinking, you little brat? You're just a tiny speck of dust."

As soon as Ruan Yanyan finished speaking, Ruan Mumu gave her a flick on the forehead, followed by Ruan Mumu's angry voice: "You're the little brat!"

Everyone else suppressed their laughter when they saw Ruan Yanyan get beaten up, watching the two siblings play around.

"You're only thirteen, what else are you but a little kid? When I was thirteen, my parents never gave me alcohol!" Ruan Yanyan said with amusement, looking at Ruan Mumu's unconvinced expression.

Then he turned to look at Ruan Wanfu and Zhang Yufang and said, "Mom and Dad, do you think it's not appropriate for a thirteen-year-old to drink alcohol?"

Ruan Wanfu and Zhang Yufang exchanged a glance, and Ruan Wanfu said, "How about we drink less?"

Ruan Haohao spoke up, "Mumu, where were you before you came? If you were outside, don't drink anymore, lest something happens outside and no one helps you. What will you do then?"

Reminded by Ruan Haohao, Ruan Mumu suddenly realized that she would be in town when she went out later. She immediately deflated and said in a low voice, "I forgot that I have to drive the carriage home later!"

As if she had caught her sister in some compromising situation, Ruan Yanyan shouted loudly, "That's right, you drank alcohol, so you'll be driving under the influence later."

"Hahaha..." The others were amused by Ruan Yanyan's statement. Seeing everyone laughing, Ruan Yanyan also laughed along with them.

In the end, everyone drank the beverages with Ruan Mumu.

"Mumu, how much did you make from selling that glass and lantern last time?" Ruan Haohao asked curiously.

Ruan Mumu recounted her experience selling glass cups and lanterns, leaving everyone stunned.

"You mean, a glass cup sold for four hundred and fifty taels? I've read novels about time travel to ancient times, and if you convert silver to RMB, one tael of silver is about one thousand RMB, right?" Zhang Yufang asked in surprise.

Ruan Mumu nodded and then asked, "Mom, do you read time-travel novels too?"

Ruan Wanfu answered for his wife, "Ever since your mother found out you went to ancient times, she and your sister-in-law have been reading time-travel novels to find out what you would need to prepare in ancient times. They also often discuss what items they need to prepare for you."

As Ruan Mumu listened to Ruan Wanfu's words, her eyes suddenly welled up with tears. Her family had gone to great lengths for her.

"Mumu, I was thinking, why don't we stock up on more commonly used supplies and sell them to wealthy people? That way we can get more silver in return," Ruan Haohao suggested.

“Yes, sister, brother is right. When we exchange the money, we can exchange it for silver or gold. These things should be universally accepted now and then, right? The profit margin is huge,” Ruan Yanyan chimed in.

Ruan Mumu agreed. She thought, "If a single glass can sell for hundreds of taels of silver, then selling a batch of thermos cups and kettles would surely bring in even more money, right? But such special items, without power or influence there, might attract unwanted attention."

"Then let's get some everyday items that aren't too special. If they're too special, I'll be powerless there, and I'll definitely offend people and get into trouble," Ruan Mumu said.

"Then how about getting some tissues, toilet paper, towels, toothbrushes, toothpaste, and the like?" Ruan Wanfu suggested.

"Sister, do you think you could make a lot of money over there by getting some mirrors or something?" Ruan Yanyan asked.

"Sigh, making money is easy, but money doesn't last long. Just thinking about how I sold the lantern for 2,500 taels last time and Zi Bapi deducted 1,000 taels from it, my heart is bleeding! That's a million RMB!" Ruan Mumu wailed.

"Who is Zi Bapi?" everyone asked in unison.

"Hehe, I'm the Purple Skinflint you've been talking about." The Purple Elf's usual robotic voice suddenly rang out.

Apart from Ruan Mumu, the other four were all extremely surprised to hear such an answer.

"You money-devouring beast..." Ruan Yanyan cursed inwardly.

"I did everything for you!" the purple elf's voice rang out again.

"You say it's for our own good, but you should at least wait for my consent! That's robbery. Your behavior is that of a bandit, hmph..." Ruan Mumu said angrily.

“Master, you don’t know, I leveled up for you! The higher my level, the more energy I have, and the more often you can see your current family.” The purple elf’s words seemed to be an attempt to gain allies, as he wanted the support of the others present.

"Mumu, from now on, your big brother will work hard to earn money to prepare more supplies for you. That way, you can earn more money by selling things over there to give to Ziba... uh... Senior Zi has leveled up," Ruan Haohao said. After saying that, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, secretly glad that he had changed his mind quickly.

Ruan Haohao's words were interpreted by Ruan Mumu as meaning "purple skinner," which made her burst into laughter.

"Master, you see, your eldest brother is the most sensible one," the purple elf said smugly. Then, the tone suddenly changed: "Friendly reminder, there are only fifteen minutes left in this meeting, please be prepared."

"Mumu, I'll put everything I've prepared for you in your room from now on. Wu Ma won't be allowed in your room anymore," Zhang Yufang instructed.

"Mumu, let's meet at the same time next time, remember?" Ruan Wanfu instructed.

"Sister, I might not be able to come next time we meet, so please remember to miss me!" Ruan Yan walked up to Ruan Mumu, gave her a gentle hug, and then patted her head after letting go.

"Mumu, Dad and I will prepare what you need as soon as possible. You should also take a good look around your room," Ruan Haohao instructed.

Hearing her family's words of advice, Ruan Mumu couldn't help but feel like crying again. So she hid in the kitchen, calmed herself down, and then brought out the spiritual spring water she had collected over the past few days, pouring half a cup into each person's cup.

"Mom and Dad, Big Brother, Yan Yan, come on, drink this cup of spiritual spring water, and may we all be healthy and safe from now on. Cheers!" Ruan Mumu raised her cup and clinked glasses with everyone.

"Big brother, please bring half a cup of spiritual spring water for sister-in-law later. It's a pity I can't see her. I miss her very much!" After finishing her drink, Ruan Mumu poured half a cup of spiritual spring water and handed it to Ruan Haohao.

Ruan Haohao took the water glass, held it tightly in his hand, and then said to Ruan Mumu, "I will definitely tell your sister-in-law that she is in this house right now, but unfortunately you can't meet her."

"Mumu, you need to take good care of yourself. If you run out of money, see if there's anything in the room you can sell. Don't mistreat yourself." Zhang Yufang felt sad thinking about the impending separation, knowing it would be another month before they saw each other again. In modern times, although her daughter was often at school, they could still talk on the phone frequently. Now, however, they could only meet for two hours once a month.

"Mumu, let Daddy think of some things you might need for building your house, and then I'll buy them for you! Come and visit often!" Ruan Wanfu said with a smile, though he was very reluctant to part with her.

Ruan Mumu nodded, indicating that she understood.

Then he went up to each of them and gave each of them a big hug.

"Mumu, next time we'll bring your grandma in," Zhang Yufang suddenly remembered and told Ruan Mumu.

“Okay! I miss Grandma too. I didn’t prepare any gifts for everyone this time, but I’ll definitely see what I can bring next time. Oh, and Mom, please bring half a cup of spiritual spring water for Grandma too, so she can stay healthy.” Ruan Mumu looked at her family, feeling a lot of reluctance to leave.

"Ring ring ring, the meeting is about to end. Please prepare to leave the space. Master, please make yourselves at this inopportune moment." The robot's voice rang out at this untimely moment, causing everyone's hearts to tighten.

"Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Yan Yan, see you next time." As soon as Ruan Mumu finished speaking, the figures of the group disappeared immediately.

A wave of disappointment washed over Ruan Mumu.
