*******************************
Li Shuning felt a bit cold all over at this moment. The conditions here are quite poor, the cold wind can even leak in. π§πβ―ππππππ°π·π¦π.πΈβ΄π
Although the conditions in Li Family Village are considered good, and our own conditions are even better, wanting to eat well and dress warmly is still somewhat challenging.
Li Shuning shivered as she got up and put on her clothes.
She still needed to get her body in shape, no matter what, she needed to integrate the Qi Refinement Realm Second Level cultivation into this body.
Fortunately, her spiritual power was still at a normal level.
When Li Shuning came out of the room, Li Chunhua was already up, and had even boiled some hot water. Seeing Li Shuning up so early, she was a bit surprised: "Daya, youβre up, quickly use the hot water to wash."
"Yeah, Mom, I want to go out to play later."
After washing up, Li Shuning drank a cup of hot water, followed by a bowl of thin rice porridge, and then bounced out the door.
After all, this body is only eight years old, she had to act like a child.
The original owner was very spoiled at home, and she wasnβt required to do any chores. If she wanted to go out and play, Li Chunhua wouldnβt mind, but considering the cold weather, she did give a few reminders.
Li Shuning jogged around the village for a lap.
With the cultivation of the Qi Refinement Realm Second Level, as she exercised, her cultivation slowly integrated with her body. However, this integration was gradual, estimated to take about a month.
This body, being born in this era, was quite hearty. After a lap, she wasnβt tired and decided to go to a small hill outside the village. Despite the cold, the small hill was bare, but she found a sheltered place and started practicing her martial skills.
No matter what, once her body was adjusted, even if Zhao Jing returned and wanted to do something to her, she could handle it.
But when Li Shuning returned home, her whole body steaming hot after exercising, she found that lunch was still porridge, though with some sweet potatoes added.
Li Shuning, having felt hungry outside, had already taken out some food from the Qiankun Ring to eat, so she wasnβt very hungry. However, seeing what was on the table, she couldnβt help but feel a bit helpless.
In this world, these are indeed times of famine.
Seeing Li Rengui and Li Chunhua, who had been working, scooping up the thin porridge, and Li Chunhua putting the thicker porridge into Li Shuningβs bowl, Li Shuning couldnβt help but sigh in her heart.
No matter how naive and clueless Li Chunhua was, she was good to the original owner.
At this time, the bowls were like big sea bowls. Li Shuning picked up a spoon and took out two-thirds of the rice in her bowl, putting half into Li Renguiβs bowl and the other half into Li Chunhuaβs bowl.
Seeing this, Li Chunhua immediately wanted to pour the porridge back into Li Shuningβs bowl, but how could Li Shuning accept that? Holding her bowl, she jumped off the table and ran to her room, closing the door behind her.
After a few quick gulps, she came out again.
Li Chunhua shook her head: "You child, how will you grow if you donβt eat enough?"
Li Shuning tilted her head: "Mom, you and Dad work every day, so hard. I just play around every day, youβll be hungry drinking so little."
Li Chunhua was quite delighted, oh my, her daughter was being considerate.
Even Li Rengui had a warm glint in his eyes. Standing up, he patted Li Shuningβs head: "Daya is sensible now, but next time, eat more."
Li Shuning smiled. Li Rengui was really good to the original owner, saving any good things for her, and he was good to his wife, too. What a good man.
"Dad, Iβm still young, my appetite is small. If Iβm hungry, Iβll let you know."
"Thatβs good. In a while, thereβll be a market day, Iβll let your mom buy you some good food."
Li Shuning smiled, in this world, there really isnβt much good to eat: "Dad, today I went over to the small hill and saw a few seeds. I want to plant them in the yard."
Seeing Li Shuningβs face full of anticipation, Li Rengui smiled: "Go ahead and plant them, our yard is big, you can plant whatever you like."
In the plot, Li Rengui is definitely a doting father.
"Thank you, Dad."
Li Shuning cheered and ran out. She was still thinking about slightly improving the home environment, otherwise drinking porridge every few days would dull peopleβs minds.
Li Rengui chuckled to himself, while Li Chunhua felt a bit envious. This father and daughter were so close, Daya wasnβt as intimate with her.
Li Rengui thought for a moment, specifically took a piece of wood, went out for a while, and came back with a package. In no time, he had crafted a small hoe and a small spade.
Li Shuning had quite a lot of seeds in her Qiankun Ring.
Considering this world lacked food, Li Shuning wanted to slowly improve the situation and make life better for her family, doing it gradually was best, avoiding suspicion.
In this cold weather, honestly thereβs not much to eat. After thinking it over, Li Shuning deemed cabbage to be the most suitable. Itβs hardy, with a short growth cycle.
She had thought that if it got too cold and couldnβt survive the winter, sheβd make a small greenhouse.
The seeds in Li Shuningβs Qiankun Ring were bought in the real world, and all had instructions on cultivation.
Li Shuning took a sickle and turned over a small patch of land in the corner of the yard, breaking up the large clods of soil. It was noon; although it was winter, the sun was shining directly into the yard, making it warm.
After watering, once the soil was moist, she planted the seeds.
After planting, she scattered some ash on top.
Plastic wasnβt a thing in this world yet. In the evenings, it would get cold, and just as she was thinking of solutions, Li Rengui came over with some wooden pieces, a small hoe, and a small spade.
Li Shuning was overjoyed: "Dad, thank you."
"Silly Daya."
With Mr. Liβs help, they set up a small wooden house around the planted seeds, with a piece of fabric draped over the top.
Li Shuning tended to that little patch of land every day.
These seeds were of high quality and quite hardy. After five or six days, they sprouted.
Looking at the small patch of green, Li Shuning felt a sense of accomplishment.
However, Li Rengui was a bit puzzled, the things these seeds grew into, he had never seen before. What use could they have? But to avoid dashing Li Shuningβs confidence, he didnβt say anything.
During those five or six days, Li Shuning also started getting familiar with her surroundings. Too cold at night? Being alone in a room, she placed a small blanket bought from the real world under the hard bedding, it was soft and warm.
Not enough to eat? When she went out to play, sheβd find a secluded spot, there was plenty of food in the Qiankun Ring.
She did want to share with Li Rengui and the rest, but it wasnβt something easily explained, so naturally, she couldnβt.
Li Shuning realized that the real world had heated beds, but in this world, it was very cold, and they didnβt have those. She thought about making one at home, so they could get through the cold winter.
But how to persuade her father? And do it without arousing suspicion?
