A family with three widows, after severing ties with relatives, she became wealthy and married into
Chapter 2 Ancient and Modern Trading Systems
Hey...
Tian Tian opened her eyes and saw Lu Tao, whose wrinkles were as deep as ravines; Tian Xiang, whose hair was dry and had a few strands of silver mixed in; and Tian Jinghe, who was silent but whose eyes were full of fear.
Seriously...
Tian Tian roared silently, her face turned upwards!
She actually time-traveled!!
but!
What a disastrous start!
A family of four, including three widows and a mute younger brother.
"Sweetie, you're awake." Lu Tao saw her daughter open her eyes, her eyes barely lifting, and her crow's feet becoming more pronounced.
"Sweetie, how are you feeling?" Tian Xiang's eyes were filled with a faint sadness.
The mute brother's eyes lit up slightly.
Tian Tian had changed out of her wet clothes and was lying on the hard bed, covered with an old, yellowed quilt.
She propped herself up, sitting slightly to about 40%, and said, "I..."
When she opened her mouth, her throat was dry and a little sore. "I'm fine, I just don't have much strength."
My body feels weak and my head is spinning; I must have caught a cold and have a fever.
Fortunately, it wasn't serious, and Tian Tian didn't want them to worry.
"Sweetie, you rest well, Mom will go... and boil you an egg." Lu Tao said this with a hint of guilt.
Tian Xiang immediately followed her out.
Tian Jinghe stayed inside, looked at Tian Tian, and then suddenly went out as well.
Tian Tian sat up and exhaled a breath of stale air.
She's already been transported to another world, I wonder if she got any special advantages? Like a spatial ability or a system?
As soon as this thought crossed his mind, a mechanical voice suddenly rang in his head.
"Hello host, congratulations on binding to the Ancient and Modern Trading System."
The next second, the interface of the Ancient and Modern Trading System appeared in front of Tian Tian's eyes.
She learned about it briefly.
Ancient items can be sold through the system to obtain silver.
You can also use ancient silver to buy items available in the system.
In addition, you can temporarily store things in the system and pay a certain storage fee.
The system can also be upgraded to increase the number of items that can be purchased and expand storage space.
My current level is LV0. I need to sell 1,000 items to level up.
There are very few things available to buy right now, only rice, flour, disaster emergency kits, and first aid kits.
The price was similar to modern prices, except the unit changed from yuan to wen.
Rice costs three coins per pound, and noodles cost four coins per pound. Disaster emergency kits can be selected in various sizes, ranging from one hundred to one thousand coins, while first aid kits cost fifty coins.
The price is very reasonable. Tian Tian doesn't think a disastrous start is so scary. With her cheat code, she's got the world at her fingertips!

Wanting to try out the system, Tian Tian touched the bed and found several pieces of clothing folded together.
Judging from the size, it should belong to Tian Jinghe. It has been washed until it is whitish and has been altered several times.
After bringing up the system, Tian Tian held the clothes in front of her.
The system recognized the voice mechanically, and after a few breaths...
"System detection: one piece of tattered clothing, junk, transaction refused."
Tian Tian: "....."
Let's try the storage function then.
"System notification: Three pieces of tattered clothing stored. Space utilization: 1%"
The clothes in his hands disappeared.
take out...
"System notification: Three pieces of tattered clothing retrieved. Space utilization: 0%"
The clothes reappeared.
Yes, it works very well, it's very user-friendly.

"Mrs. Lu, we're already letting you in because of the second son."
"You want more eggs?"
"Is that little jinx awake? If she is, you'd better get out of here with them right now!"
Outside the door, Wang Yulan's curses could be heard.
Lu Tao's voice followed, less pleading and more reckless than before, "Mother, although Tian Tian is awake, she has no strength at all."
"I caught this chicken and raised it myself, so what's wrong with giving Tian Tian an egg?"
The entire Tian family owns far more than just these chickens!
The chores at home and in the fields were all done by Tian Zhiyuan and Lu Tao's family.
Tian Xiang, Tian Tian, and Tian Jinghe all started working when they were three years old and could run.
Mingming Tian Zhiyuan was Tian Zhongqing's only child born to his first wife, and also Tian Zhongqing's first child.
But ever since Wang Yulan married Tian Zhongqing as his second wife, bringing with her a one-year-old son, Tian Zhigao, and gave birth to her third uncle, Tian Zhicheng, the following year...
At just four years old, Tian Zhiyuan was already doing endless housework and chores.
At the age of twenty, he married Lu Tao, who was fifteen years old.
From then on, Tian Zhiyuan's family took on all the labor and expenses of the entire Tian family.
Lu Tao, Tian Xiang, and Tian Tian are responsible for all the housework: washing clothes, cooking, feeding the chickens, digging for wild vegetables, gathering firewood...
At home, Tian Jinghe also had to serve tea and water to his family and tidy up the house.
Tian Zhiyuan works in the county during the day and goes to work in the fields at night.
All the copper coins they earned were taken by Tian Zhongqing and Wang Yulan.
The family of several people ate, wore, and used only what others had left over, worn out, or used.
At the beginning of the year, Tian Zhiyuan worked in the fields all day. When he got home, he felt dizzy, his heart was racing, and he had chest tightness and shortness of breath. He collapsed and died within a few breaths. It was a typical case of death from overwork, but the blame was placed on Lu Tao, who was accused of being a jinx to her husband.
"Why would a jinx like her eat eggs?!"
"Now that you're awake, get out of here!"
The rest of the Tian family quickly came to Wang Yulan's aid.
"Get out of here right now, and stop lingering at our Tian family's house."
"Weren't you very powerful just now? If you're so powerful, then don't try to take advantage of us."
"Get out! Take those two jinxes and that little mute away with you. Our Tian family has no grandsons or granddaughters like that."
While they were all watching her mother, Tian Xiang ran to the kitchen and ladled out a bowl of hot rice porridge.
"Tian Xiang! What are you doing? That's our lunch."
"You little slut! You actually stole something."
Aunt Wang Xiuying and Aunt Guo Xiuyun rolled up their sleeves and ran towards Tian Xiang.
Tian Jinghe nudged Tian Xiang from behind, and Tian Xiang turned around and put the rice soup in his hand. "Jinghe, go quickly."
"You little brat, don't run away!"
"Put the bowl down, you little mute!"
*
Tian Tian watched as Tian Jinghe burst through the door, and a small boy rushed to her with a bowl in his hands.
"..." Her big eyes and long eyelashes trembled slightly with fear.
But her little hands were very steady, and not a drop of rice water spilled from the bowl.
Tian Tian was deeply moved when she saw his adorable face. She reached out and took the bowl, feeling the warmth of the rice soup through the rim.
Lu Tao and Tian Xiang followed them in.
"Sweetie, drink it quickly," Lu Tao urged, glancing back as if a demon was chasing her.
Tian Xiang chimed in, "Drink this quickly to warm yourself up."
Outside the door, Wang Yulan's voice was loud and clear, "Since you're awake, get out of here and don't linger."
"We, the Tian family, would rather feed our grain to the dogs than give it to you."
Tian Zhongqing's voice followed closely behind, "Zhigao, go and invite your uncle here. Divorce Lu today."
Wang Yulan said smugly, "Zhigao, go and invite your uncle over right away."
Tian Zhongqing's elder brother is named Tian Bonian. He is the only scholar in the village who has passed the imperial examination. He used to work as a clerk in the county school. Now he is sixty-six years old and resigned from his position a few years ago to retire in the village.
The majority of people in Qingliu Village have the surname Tian, but there are also a few other surnames. However, when people have problems, they will ask Tian Bonian to come and let the scholar preside over the justice.
He was later appointed as the village head of Qingliu Village by the county government.
*
Inside the house, Tian Tian drank the soup in the bowl in one gulp.
In a short while, I was covered in sweat and my mind became clearer.
Since she has a special ability, she is not afraid of the orphans and widows finding another way out.
However, she couldn't let Lu Tao, who had worked so hard for the Tian family for so many years, end up being abandoned in the end.
This is unfair to Lu Tao!
Moreover, what right do they have to divorce Tian Zhiyuan's wife?!
