Xiao Nan picked up the carrying pole, hoisted two tattered baskets onto his shoulder, and went outside.

There was a piece of wasteland at the back of the village that didn't belong to anyone. She chose a spot with soil suitable for filling in the ground and making bricks.

They started digging, and after five rounds of digging in one morning, a large mound of earth was piled up in the yard.

Only then did I wash my hands and start making lunch.

Although Granny Wang is a talkative person, she has one good point: no matter what Xiao Nan does, she won't say anything. If she's curious, she'll ask, but that's all.

She finished dressing in just one morning, then got up and walked around the yard to stretch her arms and legs.

Then she stood at the kitchen doorway, smiling at Xiao Nan.

"Girl, what are we having for lunch?"

"Even a clever housewife can't cook without rice. With this little bit of food, I can only make chicken noodles. I'll go to town again when I have some free time to buy something else."

What to buy?

"I can't make cold noodles without scallions, garlic, or anything like that."

"Cold noodles?"

"Yes, it's so refreshing to eat this when it's hot. It's even better with chili peppers, sour and spicy. I could normally eat one bowl, but with these, I can eat another one."

Granny Wang swallowed hard and grinned, "I never expected there to be such good stuff."

I'll cook it for you later.

"Okay, okay, then Grandma will wait, will wait," she said, then tried to wipe away her tears again.

Xiao Nan quickly turned his head away, no longer looking at her. Before long, two steaming bowls of noodles with gravy were ready.

However, the eggs can only be braised in soy sauce, which makes them less appealing than tomato and egg noodles or garlic sprout and egg noodles.

Even so, Granny Wang ate with great relish, and even Xiao Nan wanted to have another bowl.

In the afternoon, she cut several baskets of wild grass, brought them back to dry in the yard, and then shredded them and mixed them with mud.

She learned this from a book, but she would add something to make the mud and grass bricks more solid and less likely to be washed away by rain.

Today was just preparation. After finishing all that, she placed two large bowls of cooled boiled water on the table.

"Grandma, drink some water. From now on, don't drink the water from the jar. Boil it before you drink it."

"Okay, Grandma will listen to you. Here, this outfit is done. You can rest for a bit and then change."

"it is good,"

She drank the water in the bowl, then boiled more water, took a cold shower, and then changed into her newly made clothes.

It's a bit bigger now, but it's very comfortable. The old one I used to put directly into the stove, ready to cook dinner that night.

The courtyard gate was locked. She wasn't wearing an outer garment; her inner garment was like the pajamas she wore in her previous life. It was comfortable and cool to wear like this.

Despite the sweltering heat, the villagers wear two layers of clothing without fear of heatstroke.

She asked Granny Wang, "Grandma, how do we brush our teeth here?"

"Rub it with a willow twig, then rinse your mouth with water."

"Nothing else?"

"I don't know, but that's how the girls in our village are. I just don't know how the rich families manage. They've lived for so long, and they've only been to town a few times."

This morning, she secretly went to the backyard and brushed her teeth with the toothbrush and toothpaste from her spatial dimension.

The original owner's teeth were all yellow, which she simply couldn't stand.

Moreover, although the old lady loves cleanliness, her teeth are yellow, and she can't stand seeing them; they make her uncomfortable.

I'll go to town again in a couple of days; I absolutely have to resolve the issue of the two people's teeth.

Another issue is meat. It's not easy to store in hot weather, but she can make it into cured meat, or she can just buy a few pieces of cured meat. She just doesn't know if she can buy it.

Thinking of this, her eyes lit up, and she cursed herself inwardly. In her previous life, she had never lied, but since coming here, she had lied to the old woman many times.

Can't we say that all the meat in the space was bought from outside?

Anyway, the old lady doesn't go to town, so she doesn't know what's for sale. Even if there isn't anything, she can just say she bought it from a passing merchant.

You can buy meat, and you can buy other things too.

She hadn't rested all day, and as it was getting dark, the old woman brewed medicine for her, while she only managed to make some rice porridge.

It wasn't that she was too lazy to do it; rather, it was a habit she had developed in her previous life.

Dinner was very simple; sometimes it was a bottle of milk, sometimes some boiled vegetables, and sometimes an apple.

Worried that the old lady might not be used to it, I asked her, but she said that she never ate dinner before, and this was even better.

Having similar lifestyles will make it easier to get along in the future.

After eating and taking her medicine, it got dark. After preparing Xiao Nan's two sets of medicine, Grandma didn't turn on the lights again that night.

The two strolled around the courtyard for a while before going to rest on the kang (a heated brick bed).

She started talking, but later, when the old woman saw that Xiao Nan was asleep and snoring softly, she knew she was tired. She glanced at the locked door and then went to sleep peacefully.

Meanwhile, Xiao Nan was using his mind to survey the space.

The past two days, I didn't have time to care at all. I just went straight to sleep and was so weak that I felt like I was going to faint. I didn't have time to look at anything.

After eating well for two days, I finally had the time and energy.

She was shocked to find that most of her large collection of cast iron, steel, gold bars, silver ingots, jade, and other metal and stone items had disappeared.

Xiao Nan found it unbelievable. Since he had come along, and everything else was there, why were these the only things missing?

However, I felt relieved afterward. Something was better than nothing. At least some of it was left for her. It hadn't all disappeared, so I was already thankful.

She rearranged the space, mentally counting how many of each item there were.

Upon seeing the gold bars and silver bricks, she grinned, but remained silent, afraid of frightening the old woman to death.

She thought these things were useless in her past life, but here they are very useful. As the saying goes, money makes the world go round.

However, this strength needs to be improved, and improved again.

I just don't know how strong the martial arts here are. The book says that ancient people could fly and walk on walls. Some practiced external skills, and some practiced internal skills. Compared with the superpowered people of the previous life, which is more violent?

Just as Xiao Nan was about to exit the space, a voice came to his ear.

It startled her. Whose child was crying? And not loudly, but in a low, whimpering voice, sounding incredibly aggrieved.

Creepy!

She quickly opened her eyes and looked around. Was she hallucinating? No, why was she still hearing that sound?

After a short while, the crying stopped, and a childish voice came from behind.

“Master, I am your little blackie.”

Xiao Nan swallowed hard and tried to communicate with it using his mind.

"What the hell is Little Blackie?"

The voice paused for a moment, then roared, "I am Little Blackie, not a ghost. You are the ghost, your whole family are ghosts!"

Xiao Nan was stunned. Of course, her whole family had become ghosts in her previous life. That was true.

"Tell me quickly, who are you?"

"Pah, they don't even recognize him, and they've wasted so many years of his time."

"Straighten your tongue."

"They can't be straightened out yet; they're still young, and their words are just like those of paper."

How old are you?

"He was just born."

"Pah! You can talk right after you're born? Are you a fairy?"

"I really don't want to talk to you, I really regret bringing you here, waaaaah."

Xiao Nan was a little confused, but she quickly calmed down and asked.

"Did you bring me here?"

"Of course! If it weren't for me, you would have already drunk the Meng Po soup and been reincarnated."

"who are you?"

"How stupid of me! I am your space, that little black vortex."

Xiao Nan suddenly realized what was happening, but he was still somewhat confused.

Why didn't I see you in my past life?

The little voice sobbed, and slowly said, "Back then, I wasn't even born yet."

"Speak plainly?"

"It's just that there isn't enough energy; it hasn't reached the threshold for me to emerge."

"So you later had the power to bring me here?"

"Yes, thanks to your nuclear bomb, if I hadn't absorbed its energy, all the humans within a thousand kilometers would have been wiped out. It was also because of that energy that I had the opportunity to come out and save you from the apocalypse."
