Yunxia's Quick Transmigration Journey

Chapter 29 The Lost Owner A in the Wasteland World 4

Upon hearing that it was low-radiation wheat, the group quickly sped up their work. Ten ears of wheat were harvested, with Yunmu, her two sisters-in-law, and her two sisters-in-law each receiving two.

The people who had come along initially didn't think much of it, but after hearing the notification sound of "Ding! Moderate radiation, edible," they all joined the army of grabbing wheat ears.

Seeing everyone happily heading back, Yunxia and the others carried the wheat and followed them back.

After returning the wheat to the storage point, Yunxia led the group back to the previous location. Sure enough, many of the smart ones had already returned and started harvesting the wild vegetables from the central area.

Seeing her third sister's envy, Yunxia took a few steps ahead, released her spiritual power, and quietly began to purify the wild vegetables within a fifty-meter radius.

As Yunmu and the others started digging for vegetables and grinning, Yunxia quickly gulped down a large cup of spring water.

"Phew, I can't overexert my mental energy for the sake of the original owner's family next time," Yun Xia silently reminded herself. She shouldn't mistreat herself for anyone.

"Little sister, don't be lazy, come here quickly, there's something over here!" Yun Dong waved her hand frantically.

Yunxia quickly ran over, picked out some wild chives, and cut a basketful.

"Is this tasty? You only picked this one kind," Yun Dong asked curiously.

"Sis, this is delicious. It's called chives. I'll make it for you next time," Yunxia said proudly.

Yun Dong curled her lips, "With your cooking skills, I don't want to try. You should tell your mother how to make it and let her cook it for you. If you waste it, your mother might break your legs."

Yunxia thought of the original owner's cooking skills and awkwardly shut her mouth.

There's no other way; there are too few edible plants in this wasteland world. Even if you manage to collect some, you'll exchange them for points, and then use a small amount of those points to buy cheap black steamed buns to eat.

Without ingredients, there's no opportunity to cook. The original owner, who rarely cooks, naturally had no chance to hone her culinary skills.

She collected so many edible plants this time, surely the first floor won't stop her from eating them and will exchange them all for points to buy black steamed buns?

In the past, it was considered good if you could collect a few poisoned vegetable leaves a day, which could only be sold for a few dozen points, so basically only women and children would come out to collect them.

The men and some of the physically fit women chose to join mercenary groups to hunt alien beasts in teams. After all, alien beast cores could be sold for hundreds or thousands of points depending on their level, and the points each person received were generally more than what they could earn from gathering.

Yunxia was wrong. If they were all medium-radiation plants, Mica would definitely have been sold.

However, she would let her family eat the low-radiation plants that could reduce the body's radiation levels first, since eating more low-radiation plants would help their health and prevent them from dying of radiation sickness at an early age.

Yunxia and the others filled their baskets to the brim. Yunxia's mother and her sisters-in-law were each holding a wild vegetable in their arms. Seeing this, Yunxia and Yundong quickly picked out two that they could carry, shoveled them down, and followed the group back.

After a bumpy ride in the truck, the group of collectors finally arrived safely at the entrance to the civilian area before it got completely dark.

For this trip with the official team, everyone paid 10 points as a fee for transportation and protection.

The official team doesn't actually care about these shipping points. The main thing is that after everyone goes on long trips to collect them, the official purchasing station will buy up a large number of edible plants the next day. These plants will then be made into nutrient solution and black steamed buns to sustain the lives of the people at the base.

After getting off the vehicle, the members of the gathering team retrieved their stored tents and plants. Those with less harvest simply carried their tents and a few plants home looking dejected.

Those who had a good harvest, like Yunxia and the others who gathered a basket of wheat ears and wild vegetables, waited by the roadside, using their wristbands to urge their families to help them carry the collected plants home.

Yunmu and the others found a secluded corner and unloaded all their belongings from the car.

The Yun family had six large sacks of wheat and twenty-five sacks of wild vegetables. A single, whole wild vegetable is over a meter long and can fill a sack. When Yunxia purified radioactive materials, she purified them by the whole vegetable.

These were all collected by Yunxia and her group. Normally, the mother and her daughters could collect two sacks of wild vegetable leaves in three days, which is quite good.

The four fathers of the Yun family, along with the eldest and second eldest brothers and brother-in-law Zhou Quan, who had just returned from a mission, received the urging message and quickly ran to the location located by the bracelet.

The father and his sons rushed over and were stunned to see the sacks all over the ground. Eleven of them were newly bought, obviously purchased at the official collection point during their recent trip.

The group couldn't help but wonder if there were really that many radiating plants at this collection point, and that they had all been bought and packed into sacks on the spot.

They never imagined that the majority of their harvest would consist of low-radiation plants that would be beneficial to their health.

At this moment, the father and his sons all started to plan together. They would hire a small pickup truck to transport the sacks directly to the official purchasing station to exchange them for points, saving them the trouble of going back and forth and making things easier and less strenuous.

"Xiao Ying, why don't we hire a car and go directly to the recycling station to exchange them for points?" Yun's father and the others said to Yun's mother in unison.

This was the first time Yunxia had met her fathers, and she couldn't help but take a few more glances at them, wondering if they were secretly fighting over her.

She was wrong about that. When polyandry becomes a common social condition, then it ceases to be unacceptable. Family conflicts certainly exist, but they are internal conflicts, not expressions of dissatisfaction with the social system.

Given the current situation of fewer women, only such a system can better promote social stability.

"Xiaxia, what's wrong? Which one do you want to eat? We won't sell them all; you can keep the ones you like," a father said kindly to her.

For Yunxia, ​​an old monster whose inner self has lived for hundreds of years, this loving fatherly tone made her blush with embarrassment.

Yunmu didn't want to say much outside, only saying, "That's not what your daughter meant. Move all of this home first, and we'll talk about it when we get home."

Seeing that Yun's mother was getting impatient, the men of the Yun family quickly picked up the sacks and carried them home.

Those who got the wild vegetables ran home with ease, while the first person to carry the wheat almost strained his back. Yunxia quickly rushed to the person carrying the wheat and whispered, "Wheat."

The father and his sons were still a little dazed as they looked at the thirty-one sacks in the yard, unable to believe that the mother and her children had been so successful this time, reaping so much.

Mica had her two sons each carry away a bag of wheat and three bags of wild vegetables that they had gathered.

Then he asked his third son-in-law to take away a bag of wheat and six bags of wild vegetables.

The remaining three bags of wheat and thirteen bags of wild vegetables were all collected by Yunmu and Yunxia.

Although the two daughters-in-law envied their mother-in-law and sister-in-law for collecting more than they did, they were not jealous.

After all, if it weren't for Mica leading them, they would never have been able to collect low-radiation wheat and so many wild vegetables.

They were grateful that their sister-in-law had taken them directly to the low-radiation wheat field.

If we put ourselves in their shoes, they might not be as generous as their mother-in-law and sister-in-law. After all, who wouldn't want to keep the good stuff all to themselves? Their families had been collecting a lot of wheat and wild vegetables that had been exposed to radiation, which could have made them a fortune.

After distributing the items, Yunmu nodded in satisfaction, seeing that no one had any objections. "Keep the low-radiation food for yourselves at home, don't think about exchanging it for points."

What's the use of points if you're dead? You're all intelligent people; believe me, even without my reminder, you wouldn't fail to understand such a simple truth.

The two older brothers and their wives, as well as the third sister's husband, nodded in approval. Only the third sister acted nonchalantly like a big shot. Yunmu turned to look for a wooden stick, and the third sister nodded frantically.

Unexpectedly, Yun Dong is quite the troublemaker. He enjoys watching his mother lose her temper; he's really asking for a beating.

Yunxia wanted to hand over the stick, but after looking at her sisters-in-law, she decided against it. She couldn't let them misunderstand her as a troublemaker; she'd better just be a quiet, pretty girl.

Unbeknownst to Yun Xia, whose head and face were covered in soot, she was just a little mud figure standing upright, a beauty hidden beneath a black shell.

Yun's parents told everyone to put their things away at home first, and then come back later for a reunion dinner to celebrate. The ingredients were, of course, freshly harvested low-radiation wheat and plants.

Mica and Mica cooked together, grinding wheat into flour and making several pancakes. They also stir-fried three small bowls of wild vegetables they had gathered and cooked some porridge made with wheat flour and wild vegetable leaves.

After all the dishes were prepared, Yunxia did not see the wild chives she had specially collected served. After inquiring, she learned that the locals had tasted wild chives before and found the taste strange, so very few people ate them.

Yunxia pestered Yunmu to make ten vegetable pancakes with chopped chives and a little salt. She wanted to add more seasonings, but the kitchen had nothing but oil, salt, and a sour fruit as a seasoning.

After the elder brother and sister-in-law, and the elder sister and brother-in-law arrived, Yun's mother and father urged everyone to eat quickly.

Yunxia watched as everyone devoured the food, leaving the table completely empty.

Father, brother, and brother-in-law each ate two black steamed buns before they were full. Yunxia was dumbfounded, thinking to herself, "So this is what eating is like in the wasteland."

In reality, people in the working-class area usually eat black steamed buns, low-grade nutrient solutions, and vegetable porridge with moderate radiation. They rarely get to eat low-radiation food, which is why they wolfed down their food this time.

Fortunately, Yunxia was already half full when she made the chive pancakes, otherwise she would have had to eat the black steamed buns too.

After the meal, Yunmu took some pancakes she had specially saved to take back to her sister-in-law's children. Her third sister didn't have any children yet, so she didn't get any.

Yunxia still lives with her parents, but in the wasteland world, people can rent a courtyard on their own after the age of fifteen.

Yun's parents were worried and thought they would let her be independent after she had her first husband.

Third Sister also moved out after getting married, but in the two months since her marriage, she has been going to collect things with Yunmu and Yunxia every day. She is not used to being with her mother-in-law yet.

Back in her room, Yunxia first used her divine sense to observe the surroundings of her bedroom. The bedroom was less than fifty square meters, within the range that her divine sense could completely cover.

After confirming that the surrounding environment was safe, Yunxia entered the space.
