Bai Nuo walked out of the educated youth office in a daze, her face full of confusion, the last words spoken by the comrade from the educated youth office still echoing in her mind.

“Your family signed you up for the rural service program yesterday, in Liaoning Province. I was planning to go to your house later today to deliver the subsidy to you, but the person who signed you up said that the subsidy must be delivered to you in person.”

Bai Nuo stood on the street in front of the educated youth office, looking at the two educated youth subsidies in his hands. Everything else was about the same. After all, Liaoning Province is in the Northeast. Although the winters are not as cold as Heilongjiang or Jilin Provinces, the temperature is definitely not much higher. Cotton-padded coats and quilts are necessities. However, the travel allowance is forty yuan. After all, no matter how hard that place is, it is not as hard as northern Shaanxi. Moreover, it has many advantages.

But that's not the point. The point is...

"Who was that bastard who signed me up?!"

She came here to enjoy life, not to farm in the countryside!

"Could it be someone from the Ma family?"

The system was also puzzled. Three days ago, its host was a mentally challenged idiot who was not accepted by the educated youth office. Otherwise, the Ma family would have registered her long ago.

"Impossible!" Bai Nuo shook his head seriously. "The people at the educated youth office said that the person who registered me was a man around thirty years old. Grandma Ma took that good-for-nothing Ma Fubao back to the countryside early yesterday morning. The rest of the people are all locked up in the police station. How could they possibly come out to register me for going to the countryside? Besides... I clearly have my own household registration book. Just how capable is this person to do this?"

"What should we do now? Once you sign up for the rural assignment, you can't cancel. It's so cold in Liaoning Province." The system squatted in its system space with a worried look on its face.

Since the successful reboot, in order to ensure that its troublesome host could live better in this parallel world, the system used its permissions to investigate many things in this world and this era, fearing that one day it might be taken away by its troublesome host and end up eating free meals.

Now that it's suddenly being sent to the countryside in Northeast China, it's really worried that if its host becomes unhappy, it might destroy a country again.

Its host was a true southerner in both its past and present lives. No, in this life, its host is from Beijing, so it doesn't seem to count as a southerner.

But now my household registration is in Shanghai, and I speak fluent Shanghainese. Who wouldn't say I'm a local?

How are we supposed to survive if we go to Northeast China?!

"I'm not afraid of the cold!" Bai Nuo wasn't as worried as the system.

In my previous life, the world was in the apocalypse, and it wasn't just humans and animals that were affected, but also the environment and the weather. That desolate place could sometimes get as cold as minus fifty or sixty degrees Celsius, which was much colder than Liaoning Province.

What annoyed her was that someone was making arrangements for her without her consent.

"Since we can't change it, let's take it one step at a time. If they have bad intentions, heh..." Bai Nuo chuckled lightly, her laughter cold and full of murderous intent.

Sometimes, killing someone isn't that difficult, especially in this day and age.

Moreover, if they are truly enemies of the Bai family, they would be sorely mistaken if they thought they could deal with her by simply throwing her into a rural area full of mountains and forests.

Her true domain is where there are plants.

The people from the educated youth office just said that the departure time for going to the countryside in Liaoning Province is five days later. She needs to prepare quickly. She doesn't lack supplies; she can always find a way to use them. But she needs to deal with the house here quickly, and she also needs to find some things that belong to her maternal grandmother's family. She won't feel at ease if they're not kept on her own land.

When Bai Nuo returned home, she found the front door wide open, the lock broken, and several neighboring women standing outside watching the commotion. When they heard the noise and turned around, they saw Bai Nuo and their expressions varied.

"Oh, it's Bai Xiao'a Mei! You've been discharged from the hospital."

"Hello, Aunt Liu, I'm all better now. The doctor said I can be discharged and go home to recuperate." Bai Nuo nodded with a sweet smile.

Don't be fooled by Bai Nuo's strange, mixed accent when she's chatting with the system; when she speaks Shanghainese, her soft, gentle Wu dialect is sweet and endearing.

"Well, it's good that you're back. Your cousin broke down the door and is going crazy inside. She won't listen to anything you say." Aunt Liu from next door frowned slightly, glanced around the house, and her eyes were full of disgust.

The recent commotion at the Ma family has truly shattered everyone's worldview. Old Mrs. Ma has taken her eldest grandson and left, leaving the two remaining little girls without anyone to care for them.

As for Ma Xiaomei, the others didn't want to care. That girl was spoiled rotten by her family and was arrogant and domineering. None of the ladies or old women in the courtyard looked down on her.

It's so pitiful for this little girl, Bai. She's an orphan, and now she's injured and disfigured. What will she do in the future?

"It's alright, I'll handle it. Thank you, Aunt Liu." Bai Nuo thanked her gently and obediently, and then went into the house.

Hearing the noise outside, Ma Xiaomei, who was rummaging through the house, rushed into the living room and pointed at Bai Nuo, shouting shrilly.

"Bai Nuo, you little bitch, where did all the money and tickets in the house go? And why did my grandma and my older brother suddenly go back to the countryside?"

Bai Nuo smiled at Ma Xiaomei with a docile and gentle expression, but her words were sharp and hurtful.

"How would I know that? All I know is that your dad tried to bully me and ended up injuring me. He was arrested by the police and is supposedly going to be sentenced to twenty years of hard labor. Your mother and your uncle are having an affair, and that slut is going to be paraded through the streets tomorrow. They'll also get twenty years of hard labor. Your aunt and your two cousins ​​are sleeping with that fifty-something deputy director of the cabinet, and they'll also be paraded through the streets tomorrow. But for some reason, their sentences are heavier—twenty-five years of hard labor."

As for your grandmother, it seems she went mad after doing too many bad things. Your older brother got into trouble outside and had his arms and legs broken. Your grandmother took your older brother and fled back to the countryside. As for you…”

Bai Nuo took out the property certificate from his pocket, opened it, and said with a smile, "This house was specially bought by my family so that your family would take good care of me. Originally, according to the agreement, if you took good care of me when my family came to pick me up, the house would be transferred to your Ma family. However, you did not do as agreed, so Ma Xiaomei, you can now leave my house with your own things."

Ma Xiaomei froze on the spot, staring at Bai Nuo in disbelief.

In fact, the whole family knew about this. After all, in the past two years, they had tried all sorts of threats and deceptions to force Bai Nuo to hand over the property certificate, but none of them worked.

Even so, Ma Xiaomei had long considered the house to belong to the Ma family, and now they were actually telling her to leave.

"Bai Nuo, you little jinx, you brought bad luck to your own parents, and now you're bringing bad luck to our Ma family. You even dare to steal our house. I'll kill you today."

Bai Nuo chuckled and kicked the person as they rushed in front of him.

"Bang!"

A figure flew right past them and crashed hard into the railing of the corridor outside the door.
