With a cheat code, she travels through the 40s and hoards goods to take her motherland to new height

She chose a robust, 40-year-old man, 1.8 meters tall, with a strong build, a slightly fierce appearance, and dark skin. She named him Shu Yifeng, taking his surname.

As for specialized skills, we don't need anything else for now, so let's just focus on cooking!

Shu Ran didn't need to worry about her own identification documents; she just needed to choose Liaocheng, the same city as hers.

After setting the on-site visit time and importing the memories, the first asset purchase was completed.

I took out my lunchbox and enjoyed a delicious breakfast. I packed my backpack and put out the cat food.

Shu Ran left right on time and locked the front door.

Just then, Zhang Pingfang came out of her house with her ten-year-old brother.

Good morning, Ranran (Sister Ranran)!

Good morning, Pingfang and Heping!

Carrying a shoulder bag, Shu Ran walked quickly beside Zhang Pingfang, feeling the weight of the bag; her lunchbox was heavier than her books.

Most of the books were left at home; I only took the ones I needed for today, yesterday's homework, a few notebooks, and a few pens.

Midway through, the younger brother of the Zhang family parted ways with the two of them, as the primary and secondary schools he attended were in different directions.

Besides attending classes in the morning, the first thing I do after arriving is to practice Tai Chi with the principal to exercise.

Indeed, morning exercises are unavoidable at every stage of a student's life.

Shu Ran, with a blank expression, followed the person in front of her to learn Tai Chi.

With some prior knowledge, Shu Ran learned quickly, and by the third time she was already much more fluent.

At noon, Shu Ran grabbed her lunchbox and ran to the cafeteria with Zhang Pingfang and Ding Ru.

"Hurry up, there aren't many people here right now."

They arrived early, and there was an empty stove that no one was using, so the three of them shared one stove to heat their lunchboxes.

Seeing the burning dry branches inside, Shu Ran realized that she hadn't gone to collect firewood yet.

"Pingfang, do you know where I can collect firewood at school? I haven't had time to prepare yet."

Zhang Pingfang, who was adding firewood, said without stopping, "It's okay, use ours first, it's enough. I'll take you after we eat. If you can't find any, it's fine, you can bring some from home. Ding Ru and I bring enough for a week at a time, we just pile them all up together."

"Okay, I'll bring it from home tomorrow! Thank you for your help today!"

Shu Ran was relieved. She wanted to rest at noon and didn't really want to go out to collect firewood.

"OK OK."

Ding Ru, who was watching the stove, gave a signal, and the three of them took back their lunchboxes and made room for each other.

"By the way, Ranran, next time you should mark your lunchbox. Sometimes if you're not paying attention, someone might deliberately take the wrong lunchbox."

"Is that even possible?" Shu Ran stared wide-eyed in surprise.

Ding Ru pouted: "I've encountered that before! The main problem is that they're shameless and don't care what I say. After a few words, they gave me their own lunchbox and even called me stingy! It was just a dry cornbread, and they gave me a whole lunchbox of white flour dumplings in return. It's disgusting!"

"Who is it? I'll be careful!"

Holding the lunchbox carefully through her sleeve, Shu Ran kept switching hands because it was so hot. Even through the sleeve, the temperature was still too hot for her.

Zhang Pingfang gestured towards the first stove: "That one, the girl in the gray clothes at the very back, and the boy in the blue clothes opposite her. I don't know about the others, this is what caused the commotion."

"Alright, I'm not going to say anything more. Just seeing them makes me angry!"

Ding Ru turned her gaze away, not wanting to look in that direction anymore, and said to the two of them, "Let's go, let's eat in the classroom today! I brought dumplings again, I don't want to see him."

Having reached a consensus, the three of them took their lunchboxes and returned to the classroom.

At this time, most people are heating up their meals in the cafeteria, and most will choose to eat them while they're still hot before coming back.

Both of them came from well-off families, and since there were no ration coupons for goods at the time, it was easy for them to eat well if they had money.

The three sat together, and Ding Ru eagerly opened her lunchbox, saying with a touch of pride, "Look, my mom specially made pork and scallion dumplings for me! You can each have two to try, but there won't be any more."

Zhang Pingfang leaned closer and exaggeratedly sniffed the aroma: "Wow, this is the smell! Aunt Su's dumplings are so fragrant."

Turning to Shu Ran, Zhang Pingfang said happily, "You must try it! Xiao Ru doesn't easily share Aunt Su's dumplings with others; she can't get enough of them herself!"

Shu Ran was also curious. Just how delicious must these dumplings be to make the two of them react so strongly?

"Thank you, Xiaoru. Perfect timing, you can try my cooking too! I made rice balls."

Shu Ran opened the lunchbox and placed it in front of her. The unassuming bundle of mixed grains released a faint aroma after the lid was opened.

"Okay, I brought some mixed grain rice and braised pork, you can try some too!"

"Did you put something in this? It smells so good!"

Ding Ru has a very sensitive nose. She could smell the faint fragrance when Shu Ran opened the lunchbox, and now that it was fully open, the fragrance was even more obvious.

Shu Ran was taken aback and sniffed hard: "Is the smell that strong?"

"It's not that the smell is obvious, it's that Xiaoru has a good nose. I have to smell it very hard to detect it."

Zhang Pingfang twitched her nose a few times and explained.

Fearing they might be too polite, Shu Ran gave each of them two rice balls.

Ding Ru pushed her dumplings in front of the two of them, letting them choose for themselves. Then, she couldn't wait to pick up a rice ball and put it whole into her mouth.

My mouth was stuffed full, filled with the flavor of mushroom and meat sauce, and a hint of umami.

After swallowing the rice ball in my mouth, I didn't have time to comment before putting the last one into my mouth.

The soft and sticky rice balls are fragrant with rice, and the bouncy shrimp meat is so fresh!

One is mushroom and meat sauce with cabbage and potatoes, and the other is shrimp with cabbage and potatoes.

Ding Ru praised, still savoring the delicious food, "Ranran, what you made is really delicious!"

Shu Ran also picked up a dumpling to try.

They're delicious! The filling is perfectly seasoned, and they're so good you could eat a hundred of them! They would be even more perfect with a little vinegar.

"Let me try it, let me try it!"

Zhang Pingfang first used chopsticks to put two pieces of braised pork on each of their plates before picking up a rice ball and putting it in her mouth.

After exchanging compliments and finishing lunch, Shu Ran had completed most of her tasks for the day.

Today, her task of appreciating the scenery has been replaced by reading an interesting book, which she can continue when she gets home tonight. She had already read more than ten pages during her free time this morning.

They still walked home together. From afar, they saw a tall man standing at the door. Shu Ran remembered her arrangements for the morning and a smile appeared on her lips.

"Pingfang, I think I saw my dad!"

She ran over quickly, and upon seeing the familiar face, Shu Ran called out without hesitation, "Father!"

Shu Yifeng also looked at Shu Ran, his movement of bowing halted, and the essential lessons of acting came to mind. He opened his mouth and replied, "Hey, Ranran, Daddy's Ranran!"

Excellent acting!

Anyway, witness Zhang Pingfang believed it! She was so moved by the atmosphere that her eyes welled up with tears.

He considerately gave the father and daughter some space and went home.
