A peasant girl with a special ability uses herself and two wolves to escape famine!

Now, her appetite has increased considerably. After exercising, she can eat thirty dumplings and a bowl of nourishing bird's nest for breakfast. Thanks to Mr. Han's generous sponsorship, she has also developed a new idea for stocking up: she wants to stock up on a batch of high-end ingredients.

The merchants bought her three boatloads of seafood, and I must say, seafood was incredibly cheap back then. Many people find it fishy and can't stand the taste. But she loved it.

She also stocked up on bird's nest, cordyceps, and other delicacies. No matter how expensive they are, she couldn't let herself go hungry.

Her biggest worry right now is what to eat.

Having too many things and too many choices can also be a problem.

Hey!

After the snow stopped, the temperature seemed even colder. She put on her leather boots and planned to go up the mountain to collect some snow.

The longer the cold wave lasts, the more chaotic the world becomes. Most households still have surplus food, and grain is available in shops; everyone is staying home to hibernate. There are organized snow removal efforts in the city every day, so things are relatively calm. But how long can this calm last as the cold wave continues? Nobody knows.

The small courtyard where she lives is about an hour's walk from the mountains. With the roads slippery from the snow, it's estimated it will take her two hours to get there.

It wasn't that she didn't want to ride a mule, but what if someone took the mule away after she left at the foot of the mountain?

The fact that living things cannot enter the space is a major drawback.

When she left, she left plenty of hay and added plenty of charcoal to the heating wall, so that even if she didn't return until tomorrow, the mule wouldn't starve or freeze.

When she reached the foot of the mountain, it took her a full hour and a half to walk, exceeding her expectations. It seemed that her recent training had been quite effective.

The entire mountain was a vast expanse of white. No one was shoveling the snow; the snow was piled up to waist-high.

Seeing that there were no footprints, she felt relieved and continued collecting the items.

The drought was prolonged and accompanied by a plague. She was afraid of the heat and had to collect lots of snow and ice to cool down.

Xia Ning was like a mouse that had fallen into a rice jar, collecting as she went. She didn't stop until evening, when it was getting dark. There was a good tent, burning charcoal, and ready-made cooked food in the space.

Her proudest possessions were three large wooden cabins, which she had custom-made by a carpenter. They were fully equipped with beds, cabinets, and everything else she needed.

If she has to sleep outdoors in the future, as long as no one is around, she won't have to make herself suffer.

For example, right now, she found a relatively flat place, set up the wooden house, and took out three charcoal braziers. The temperature inside the house rose quickly.

Another charcoal brazier was placed on the table, and a custom-made copper pot was taken out, ready for hot pot. Eating a steaming hot and spicy hot pot in the freezing cold was simply too satisfying.

With chicken soup base, her stir-fried seasonings, and various ingredients laid out on the table, the inside and outside of the small house became two completely different worlds.

She prepared a condiment dish with millet peppers, sesame oil, and minced garlic, and the pot was bubbling away as she ate, sweating profusely. She didn't plan to go down the mountain tonight; she would collect for half a day tomorrow, then continue collecting as she went down the mountain. That should be enough for her drought relief efforts.

Xia Ning slept in a 20-pound thick cotton quilt that had been sun-dried, and didn't sleep a wink all night.

The next day, after dinner, I opened the cabin and was stunned by the scene before me.

What are those two little creatures huddled in front of her? Why are they at her door?

She crouched down to examine it closely, and gasped in shock. "Oh my god, is this a wolf? No, it's a wolf cub! And a white wolf at that? This must be a rare breed!"

She looked around warily, but there was no sign of any wolves. Where did these two come from?

The two little ones looked like they hadn't eaten for a long time; they were very weak and skin and bones.

Why are they so thin even though the natural disaster has just begun?

Xia Ning circled the area again but didn't see any trace of animals or people. She had heard that wolves were highly intelligent, loyal, and extremely united.

She was thinking of taking them home to raise as pets and to guard the house.

Having them at home should deter many people with ill intentions. Animals are more perceptive than humans; they can detect unusual activity immediately.

Originally, she wanted to buy two dogs to guard the house, but later she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to keep an eye on them when they fled the famine, and that they might get eaten by someone. She couldn't accept that emotionally.

Most importantly, she couldn't find any fierce wolfhound puppies. How could a mongrel possibly fight against a starving person? So she gave up on the idea.

These two wolf cubs fell from the sky, so were they a gift from heaven to her?

Xia Ning carried them into the wooden house and took out two bowls of brown sugar water.

She knew they needed milk, but unfortunately she didn't.

The two little ones each had a bowl, their paws pawing at the rims as they drank eagerly.

Oh dear, poor thing, starving like this? Her heart softened. Even though it was a wolf, who could resist such a small white wolf?

These must be two orphans. What kind of cubs would starve so badly? Besides, wolves are known for being fiercely protective of their young.

After they had finished drinking, she took out a cloth bag almost without hesitation and put the wolf cubs inside. They were surprisingly obedient, looking at her with their round eyes and rubbing their little paws against her hand.

Family members, who can resist this?

After collecting the wooden house, she immediately went down the mountain. Why bother collecting the snow? She wanted to take it home and see if she could keep it alive.

Carrying her snow-white baby on her back, she leaned on a wooden stick and hurried towards the small courtyard.

This time, she returned to the courtyard in just one hour. Despite the cold weather, she was drenched in sweat.

"My darlings, we're home!"

After entering the house, I put down the two little ones, quickly washed myself, and changed my clothes.

She quickly added more charcoal and gave the mules more rations. When she returned to the house, she saw the two little ones still lying obediently in the bundle, not moving at all, but they seemed to stir slightly when they saw her.

So cute!

Xia Ning is worried, what are those wolf cubs eating? My all-knowing friends on social media, can you tell me?

Waaaaah... I thought I had stockpiled all of Xia Ning's stuff, but I'm so frustrated.

She glanced again at the baby cubs staring at her expectantly, waiting to be fed. She gritted her teeth. She seemed to have heard that baby cubs could drink fish soup, but apparently they couldn't eat sugar or salt.

Oh my god!

She just gave me brown sugar water this morning, will that be okay? I quickly gave her another bowl of warm water to dilute it.

Take out a clean small pot, two crucian carp, and let's make fish soup. The crucian carp soup is thick and white; is it okay to drink it like milk?

After a pot of crucian carp soup is cooked, set aside two bowls and pour the rest into a wooden bucket to continue cooking.

The two little ones eat whatever they're given, without being picky at all. They even finished a small bowl of fish soup completely. Don't be too swayed by their generosity.

After finishing his drink, he obediently looked at her; it was absolutely adorable.

Xia Ning patted her heart. Oh my god, how could she not love such a well-behaved, fluffy little cutie?
