By evening, the sun had already set, but there was still a little bit of light left.

The tea stalls are also starting to pack up and close.

Lian Qingyou followed them in packing, and they packed everything into the shed.

After locking the door, Lian Qingyou, carrying a basket in her left hand and a bucket in her right, followed them towards Shangshang.

She had always thought that the old couple lived in that shed, but she never imagined that there was a hidden world behind it.

At the top of the mountain, there is a large bamboo forest, and deep within the bamboo forest are rows of wooden houses.

It looks very peaceful and elegant.

"That room is for you. I prepared it last night. There's a hot spring behind it... Not many people come here. You can go soak in the hot spring after we go to sleep!"

The old woman stretched out her hand and pointed to the wooden house in the back.

"Yes!"

Lian Qingyou was speechless when she heard her say that.

This place is like a paradise on earth, isn't it?

The place is so peaceful, and there's even a hot spring.

She looked ahead again, where a field had been cleared and was filled with fresh vegetables.

Lian Qingyou carried her bundle and went into her wooden house.

There are no beds here.

As soon as you walk in, you see a thick layer spread on the ground.

Besides the sleeping area, there was only a low table.

There was another small room on one side. She pushed the door open and went in. It was a bathroom, with a chamber pot and a bath tub.

On the other side of the wall, there was a screen leaning against the wall.

These things are all brand new; they are obviously meant for her use.

Lian Qingyou threw her bundle on the ground and walked out.

"Grandma, where is the kitchen?"

Lian Qingyou asked.

"In that room!"

The old woman sat on the porch in front of her house, holding a bowl of tea and slowly sipping it.

The old man was sitting next to her, holding a book and reading.

"Yes!"

Lian Qingyou looked at the two of them; both of them had frost-dyed hair.

I could vaguely see streaks of white.

Seeing them like this, she felt a strange feeling.

That's what it means to grow old together!

I went into the kitchen and saw that everything inside was clean and tidy.

There were even bamboo tubes used to bring spring water from outside into the kitchen.

She looked around the kitchen and then cooked some white rice porridge.

Then I went to the edge of the vegetable garden outside and dug up some wild vegetables.

It's a cold salad of wild vegetables, and it even looks like it has some meat on it.

I made another batch of steamed dumplings.

At this point, the porridge had also become very thick.

After finishing all that, including packing the Qingyou (a type of soup), he went out and called them in for dinner.

The old man and the old woman walked in together.

Where are the oil lamps or candles over here?

It was already dark outside, and now the room was also very dark.

"It's in that box!"

The old woman stretched out her hand and pointed to the shelf on the other side.

Lian Qingyou quickly went over and opened the box on the shelf.

The box has just been opened, and there you are, truly, the light.

Lian Qingyou was slightly stunned, and then swallowed again.

Inside this large box is a luminous pearl the size of a goose egg.

It wasn't that she hadn't seen a luminous pearl before, it's just that she wasn't mentally prepared for it.
