Today's scene is a farmers' market, where a dazzling array of vegetables are crammed together.

I quickly passed the first "welfare" level and received two bitter melons, two pieces of ginger, and a cute goose carrying a cabbage on its back.

Shu Ran took the cabbage down, put the goose into her backpack, and stored the rest in her spatial storage.

She carefully avoided the goose's beak; last time, she lost the game because she touched the goose's beak and got pecked!

With intense concentration, fingers flew across the screen, eliminating three kinds of cabbage, three kinds of eggplant, tomatoes...

The goose hidden underneath quickly stretched its neck and took a big bite.

Hey~

Before she could retract her hand, Shu Ran lost the game again.

Two key takeaways: Don't tap the goose's beak, or you'll get pecked and the game is over.

The goose will also hide itself by covering itself, stretch out its neck to peck at people, and then the game is lost.

The pain lasted for a few seconds and then disappeared. Although the goose had pecked her finger, the pain that moment had an effect on Shu Ran's head, or more accurately, on her mind.

Before she could even use her wok-flipping skills, the game was already over.

Shu Ran covered her head and silently tapped the top earpiece icon to call customer service.

Yes, darling, is there anything I can help you with?

Customer service responded very quickly.

My goose pecked my head and it hurts. Are there any side effects? Also, is this really a way to train a child's mental strength?

Here's a check for you, dear!

There are no side effects, dear! All the cheats selected for testing have been officially reviewed and are completely harmless to the testers and subsequent users, dear!

Here we found the cheat you experienced, "Catch the Goose," which is designed for children under three years old in the Kepsy Galaxy with low mental abilities. It is specifically used to train mental focus, reaction speed, and predictive ability. Being nagged is also one of the perks, honey!

This will boost your energy, so we suggest you don't get nagged more than three times a day, dear!

The screen was filled with "kissing" characters, and Shu Ran almost didn't recognize the word anymore.

Ignoring the unimportant information, Shu Ran exited the customer service interface after receiving a reply.

Thankfully it wasn't a voice message; Shu Ran could already imagine the tone. Hmm, how strange!

Around 3 PM, after being nagged again, Shu Ran ended her game for the day.

After organizing her backpack and the space inside, Shu Ran made a brief summary.

On November 2nd, the first day of "catching goose chicks" yielded the following: six bitter melons; six pieces of ginger; three cabbages; one eggplant; three tomatoes; and three cabbage goose chicks.

Except for the goose, which was alive and needed to be put in the backpack, everything else was stored in the space in the newly bought bamboo basket.

The vegetables are fine, but what about the goose?

Living beings can't enter the space. Backpacks can, but they'll starve if left there for too long. Time isn't static, and the need for eating, drinking, and relieving oneself is worrying!

Shu Ran originally wanted to go out and deal with the geese, but the Qian family had recently imposed martial law again, with two patrol teams patrolling her courtyard gate 24 hours a day.

Without some kind of invisibility cloak or something, she really wouldn't dare go out.

But you can't blame anyone else.

After Shu Ran failed to achieve her goal by pretending to be a ghost the first time, she came back a few days later and scared Qian Chengji into fainting.

That's good, now the Qian family's courtyard is full of people.

After Qian Chengji woke up, he invited a lot of monks, Taoist priests and fortune tellers to come and go, buying all sorts of things to ward off evil spirits and drive away ghosts. He also listened to someone's advice and hired about a hundred strong men to patrol the courtyard, saying that they would use human energy and yang energy to suppress ghost energy and yin energy.

Extremely superstitious!

For the last two weeks, "Thousand Faces" was completely idle. Shu Ran didn't find any bugs or anything like that, but she did find several functions that weren't mentioned in the introduction.

Seven days have passed, and there are already thirty goslings in the backpack, but all of them are still as big and strong as ever.

The backpack compartments were clean and free of foreign objects. Shu Ran belatedly realized that she no longer needed to worry about how to deal with the goose; the backpack would take care of the needs of the life inside on its own.

With no worries about the future, Shu Ran stayed in the yard catching geese and soon it was 1949.

In January, the north wind howled, and Master Guo personally delivered the Laba porridge he had cooked to Shu Ran's room. Shu Ran knew that the time for parting had come.

"Miss, please try this. I deliberately didn't put any wood ear fungus in this Laba porridge that you don't like."

"Thank you, Master Guo."

Shu Ran took the Laba porridge that Master Guo served her, lowering her eyes to hide the surprise in them. Although she had Qian Duoduo's memories, she didn't have a deep impression of things like eating, drinking, and relieving herself in daily life. They were too ordinary and easy to overlook, and she didn't really want to know.

This was the first time she had ever heard that in Suzhou, Laba porridge, besides the usual ingredients like red dates and chestnuts, also included water chestnuts, arrowhead, and green vegetables.

The taste was a bit strange, but not bad. Shu Ran thought it was alright.

"You eat too."

After finishing the Laba porridge, Master Guo explained his purpose: "Miss, I have come to say goodbye to you today."

As he spoke, he took a book out of his pocket and placed it on the table.

"This is a parting gift for you. If you ever want to eat anything, just have someone make it for you according to the recipe in the book."

The kitchen helpers, Xiaohua and Xiaocao, have been learning from me for quite some time and are barely qualified. You can make do with them.

If they stay, could you please have someone copy a copy and give it to them? If they want to leave, then forget it.

"This is?"

Shu Ran looked at the blue book on the table, the cover of which clearly read "The Recipe of Serendipity".

Master Guo touched the book with some reluctance and recalled, "This is a thank-you gift from someone I saved when I was a child. With the help of this book, I went from being a dishwasher in the backyard to becoming a renowned chef at Taifeng Restaurant. The recipes for your favorite Golden Jade Pastries and Jujube Paste Cakes are all recorded in this book."

Since it concerned someone else's ability to make money, Shu Ran dared not accept it and quickly declined: "I can't accept this, Master Guo, please keep it. You can pass it on to your descendants. After all, it's a skill for making money. Giving it to me would be a waste. You know, I can only eat, I can't cook."

Master Guo's kind face revealed a hint of pride: "To be honest, Miss, I've mastered all the recipes in this book in my entire life. Giving them to you is no trouble at all; they're all in my mind and in my hands. Please accept them, Miss!"

Moreover, I will personally teach my family members, which is much better than a cold, impersonal book! Once the book is given out, how well they learn is entirely up to them. I'm not afraid of people learning; I'm afraid of people not learning! It's about passing on knowledge! It doesn't matter who it's passed on to, the more the better, as long as it's passed down.”

Clarity! Open-mindedness! Grandeur!

Shu Ran was speechless; only these three words were in her mind.
