The little guy was very happy to see Su Niannian and kept running around excitedly.

Moreover, because of drinking the spiritual spring water, it seems to have become very spiritual.

It has grown considerably larger and its body has become much more robust.

Su Niannian was a little confused about finding the tiger, but since she had already found it, what could she do but throw it away?

Thinking about it, Su Niannian decided to find some meat for it.

Looking at it this way, it's quite surprising to see that this little guy has already taken care of himself and is self-sufficient.

The meat that Su Niannian bought earlier was noticeably missing a piece.

A large piece.

Su Niannian turned her head to look at the tiger frolicking on the ground.

The little tiger suddenly paused, as if realizing it might have made a mistake.

It stopped its playful antics, sat down like a dog, and even scratched its nose with its front paws a couple of times.

He looked like he had done something wrong.

Su Niannian thought it made sense. The tiger must have been hungry to grow so much. She didn't know if it was because the time flow in the space was too fast or because it drank the spiritual spring water that the tiger grew so much.

But we can't let it go hungry.

Since I ate it, I'll just go to the county town tomorrow and stock up on more meat.

Moreover, the tiger was very sensible and did not rummage through the meat or other food.

Instead, it picked up a piece from one side and ate it, leaving the rest untouched.

She's already very sensible.

Seeing that Su Niannian didn't seem to mind blaming him, the tiger shamelessly moved closer to her and rubbed against her trouser leg.

Su Niannian bent down and patted the tiger's head.

"I can't call you Dog anymore, I'll just call you Little Guy."

Su Niannian also wondered if calling it "little guy" would stop the tiger from growing so big.

Otherwise... it will take a lot of meat to feed it properly in the future.

That was 1976.

The tiger seemed to understand that the words "little guy" would be its name from now on.

Thinking about it, he rubbed against Su Niannian's pants again.

Looking at the little guy, Su Niannian thought, why not let it out at night and let it find food in the deep mountains on its own?

Su Niannian felt that she was truly exceptionally intelligent!

Wild tigers are naturally good at hunting.

Su Niannian looked at the vegetables she had grown in the space again, and the little guy really hadn't damaged them at all.

Cucumbers, eggplants, tomatoes, and the like have already flowered and borne fruit.

They look small now, but we can pick them and sell them for money soon.

She also planted fruit trees, including apple, pear, peach and jujube trees, which are now as tall as a person.

It will probably take some time before we get the results.

Then there are the corn and wheat, both growing very well.

I was thinking I could buy some other seeds tomorrow.

They watered the crops with the spiritual spring water and played with the little guy for a while.

Su Niannian then left the space.

After leaving the restroom, Su Niannian went back to her room and went to sleep.

One night passed quickly.

Su Niannian got up very early today because she was preparing to take an oxcart to the county.

Although the brigade of Kaoshan Village had tractors, they were generally not used to transport villagers or educated youth to the county unless the brigade used them or they ran diesel fuel.

Moreover, only three people in the entire Kaoshan Village know how to drive a tractor, and they usually use oxcarts to take people to the county town.

We'll agree on a time and place in the afternoon, then I'll come back.

So if I have to go, I'll miss a day of work.

When Su Niannian arrived at the village entrance, someone was already waiting for the oxcart.

The two women were already sitting on the oxcart, which was being driven by an old man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties.

"Are the young educated youth also going to the county town?" the old man asked.

Su Niannian nodded and greeted him as "Hello, sir."

The old man smiled when he saw that the young educated youth was good-looking and polite.

Su Niannian got into the car and nodded to the two aunts.

"Wow, this young educated youth is really pretty. She must be one of the new ones who arrived these past few days."

"Didn't you see her the day before yesterday? I saw her the day she came. She's really pretty."

The two middle-aged women seemed quite kind.

"Yes, my name is Su Niannian, I just arrived the day before yesterday," Su Niannian said with a smile.

"Here, young lady, I have a cushion here. It won't hurt your bottom." An older woman pulled the cushion outward from under her.

The cushion is large; pulling out half of it is enough for another person to sit on.

Su Niannian smiled at the aunt and sat down without any hesitation.

"Aunties, have some candy." Su Niannian said, taking out four pieces of fruit candy from her pocket and giving one to each of the two aunties.

I gave another piece to the old man who was driving the carriage.

Then he opened the candy wrapper and popped one into his mouth.

"Oh, Su Zhiqing is so generous." The aunt took the candy with a smile.

“My husband’s surname is Liu, you can just call me Aunt Liu.”

"You can just call her Aunt Zhou."

Aunt Zhou gave Su Niannian the cushion.

"Hello, both of you aunties," Su Niannian said with a smile.

The two aunts were quite happy. These days, fruit candies are a rare treat; they wouldn't even buy a pound of them for the New Year.

Aunt Liu ate the candy, while Aunt Zhou put it in her pocket, waiting to give it to her grandson when she got home.

Before long, more people arrived at the oxcart.

Zhao Sulan was among them.

Since Huang Yingying didn't come, Su Niannian naturally knew what was going on.

Her family was actually just an ordinary dual-income family, not particularly wealthy. When Huang Yingying went to the countryside, she used more than half of her money to buy clothes and take good care of herself. She was just pretending to be rich.

As for Zhao Sulan, her family situation is probably average, but she doesn't have a mattress or pillow, so she probably plans to buy them in the county town.

Su Niannian didn't say much.

Zhao Sulan glanced at Su Niannian, probably thinking that this poor girl was actually going to the county town to buy things.

Su Niannian carried a basket on her back, which now only contained an empty cloth bag, making it seem as if she was going to the county town to buy things.

Seeing that it was almost time, the old man driving the cart collected five cents from each person and set off with the oxcart.

It takes more than an hour to get to the county town by tractor, and more than two hours by oxcart.

When they arrived near the county town's supply and marketing cooperative, it was already past eight in the morning, and the oxcart slowly came to a stop.

Grandpa Jiang, who drives the oxcart, said the oxcart would depart around 2 p.m.

One by one, the people on the bus got off.

Su Niannian asked Grandpa Jiang, who was driving the cart, where the traditional Chinese medicine shop in the county town was.

Grandpa Jiang wanted to take Su Niannian along, but Su Niannian politely declined. Most people were coming to the supply and marketing cooperative, and she didn't want to make an exception and cause trouble for others.

After getting the address, Su Niannian carried her basket and headed to the traditional Chinese medicine shop.

After Su Niannian entered a traditional Chinese medicine shop called Baicaotang, she handed over the prescription she had written the night before to the pharmacist to prepare the medicine.

"Young lady, who gave you this prescription?" The pharmacist inside glanced at Su Niannian's prescription.

Their eyes lit up.
