She took the money to the supply and marketing cooperative. Nowadays, you need coupons to buy almost anything. She only had some coupons for ordinary daily necessities on her, so she went to see if there was anything that didn't require coupons.
I don't need money right now, so I'll save as much as I can.
Upon entering the supply and marketing cooperative, Yunxi heard that there was defective fabric. She frowned, thinking that with so many bolts of fabric in her own space, there was really no need to buy defective fabric.
She thought that the fabrics in the space were all very good and were used for making clothes, but if she were to make shoe soles, it would be a waste to use good fabrics. She could buy some flawed fabrics instead.
She followed the crowd in and went in. Everyone was grabbing things like they were free. When it was Yunxi's turn, she didn't even pick a color and just bought the maximum limit for one person.
There are many people like Yunxi, so she doesn't stand out too much.
After browsing around and buying other daily necessities that didn't require coupons, I realized that I already had everything the supply and marketing cooperative had in my own space, so I didn't stay any longer and prepared to go home.
After leaving town, I put all the things I had just bought into my spatial storage.
When we entered the village, we drove around the mountain, wanting to go up and see the acre of land I had reclaimed before.
There happens to be a stream next to that plot of land. Let's see if the water has dried up. If not, let's not waste that plot of land. Let's gather some vegetables and plant them while we can still do so.
Normally, with only a few months until winter, we might just let it go.
But now is a difficult time. Every family's private plot of land, in front of and behind their houses, is completely filled with plants, leaving no empty space at all.
After walking for about an hour, we arrived at the location of the reclaimed land and found that a lot of sweet potatoes were growing there, with vines climbing everywhere.
I guess they must have been planted before, but they weren't completely dug up when they were dug up, and then two years passed, allowing them to grow so much on their own.
If I hadn't suddenly decided to take a look, I might have missed out on so many promising young talents.
Quickly pluck the tender ones and put them all into your space. There were vines crawling all over half an acre of land. By the time you finished plucking them all, it was already lunchtime.
After wiping the sweat from his forehead, he washed his hands and face in the stream outside, took out the food he had prepared in advance from his space, and drank a bowl of soup he had stewed yesterday.
After eating and drinking to our hearts' content, we rested for about ten minutes before cutting down all the sweet potato vines.
The cutting speed is quite fast. After cutting it, it can be directly stored in the space. You don't even need to pull it yourself. As long as you grab the root, the whole vine will be stored in.
It was done in less than half an hour.
The land was tidied up again, and the old sweet potatoes buried underground were dug out along the way.
There were both old and new sweet potatoes, a huge, densely packed bunch, so the harvest was quite substantial.
I'll store it in my storage space for now, just in case I need it someday.
By the time the land in Yunxi was prepared and the cabbage and radish seeds were sown, it was almost dark.
Using spatial abilities, a light rain drizzled down on the land. We'll come back when it's ready to transplant again.
After tidying up the thorny vines around the area and making sure no animals would crawl inside, I headed home.
As it was getting dark, Yunxi didn't slow down and sped up her pace. What usually took her more than an hour to get home took her only half an hour.
There's no time to tidy up the backyard plot yet; I'll wait until tomorrow.
After dinner and washing herself up, Yunxi noticed the moon was quite bright outside and went straight to the riverbank.
I searched the space for a lot of clean river water, and also collected a lot of small fish and shrimp, and occasionally crabs.
I spent over an hour collecting water by the river, feeling that the water I had collected in my space was enough for me to use without restraint for a year, before I finally stopped, satisfied.
The water stored in the space right now is definitely not enough, but collecting it by the river here is too time-consuming. I'll go to the big river 50 kilometers away someday, where there will be plenty of water to collect, enough to last me for several years.
On the way back, I unconsciously observed the irrigation ditch beside me. Normally, I could see countless eels and loaches, but now they were all hiding.
If they hadn't hidden, they would have been on the dinner table or roasted to a crisp long ago. When it comes to food, only the delicious ones are made into dishes, and the unpalatable ones are made into medicine; there is never any waste.
Since she hadn't found anything, Yunxi decided not to waste any more time there and quickly headed home.
Anyway, there are still some eels and loaches in the space. I collected them when I first arrived, wanting to collect everything I saw. I collected a lot but ate little, so there are quite a lot in total, enough to eat for a long time.
Occasionally, she would encounter people returning home late on the road, but she wasn't curious about where they were going. They were just trying to make a living, and she felt quite at ease with the people of Yunjia Village.
Li Xingtang's letter arrived half a month after he left. By then, Yunxi had already planted radishes and cabbages all over the backyard, and had just finished tidying up the private plot. The tender shoots weighed several hundred pounds and had been watered several times.
The page is filled with longing and care, making the reader feel a bittersweet ache in their heart.
He had no complaints about life there; on the contrary, he enjoyed it and even found the training in the army to be particularly easy.
The letter also reminded her not to send dried peaches next time. Although it didn't explicitly explain why, you would understand why once you read the letter.
It seems he has already eaten the dried spirit peaches he made and experienced their benefits. It's quite impressive that he was able to control his desires.
Yunxi certainly didn't intend to send him any more dried spirit peaches. She had only eaten one herself, and now her physique and strength had improved in every way. She was even more beautiful than before. Such a good thing couldn't be wasted so easily.
I wonder if Li Xingtang's appearance has changed. I imagine it has been improved a bit. I wonder if he will attract even more suitors. I hope he can control himself.
I looked at the mailing address; it's in your province. It seems like there are mountains everywhere there. I wonder if he'll be able to get used to it.
I don't know if he's eating well there, but since I have his address, I'm going to send him some good food.
The space is piled high with all kinds of meat. Let's make some more jerky for him. It can replenish his energy, and the weight won't be too heavy. We don't have to worry about it getting bumped or knocked during the journey.
