Chapter 15: Chapter 15 Playing with the Zhao Family Sisters Chapter 15: Chapter 15 Playing with the Zhao Family Sisters Luo Qiao thought of the xun in the instrument room on the second floor of her space. She had learned various instruments in her past life; though she wasn’t an expert, she could still play a little. By now, the sky had already darkened slightly.
The educated youth spot was still some distance away from the village, and the closest home to here was Lu Yichen’s. In recent days, one or two of the Zhao Family sisters came over each day to cozy up to her, truly annoying her to no end.
After thinking about it for a moment, Luo Qiao turned and headed towards the backyard. There was a small gate there leading to the courtyard where the male educated youths stayed, but the latch was on the female side. She unlocked it and passed through to the males’ courtyard.
She found a secluded place to enter her space, went upstairs to get a xun, tested it out inside the space to make sure it was fine, and then left the space.
When those two figures were about a hundred meters from her courtyard, Luo Qiao began to play a haunting melody. The Zhao Family sisters were so frightened that they ran off at full speed, howling as they went.
Getting what they deserved for coming over to be a nuisance all the time, scare you to death, hmph!
Standing in his own yard, Lu Yichen heard the noise from over there and looked towards the direction of the educated youth spot with some puzzlement.
When he heard the Zhao Family sisters, who had run near his house, babbling non-stop about ghosts and how terrifying it was, he couldn’t help but worry a little about the young girl.
Irritated by the knocking, Luo Qiao asked, “Who is it?”
Lu Yichen, hearing the fiery tone of her question, responded, “It’s me, Lu Yichen.”
Separated by the courtyard gate, one inside and one outside, “Something wrong?”
“Nothing’s wrong. I just heard some noise over here and came to check on you. As long as you’re ok.”
“I’m fine, thank you, Brother Lu. It’s getting late, you should head back and rest early.”
Only after hearing the departing footsteps did Luo Qiao return to her room, sighing at the empty space, and then she made sure the doors and windows were secure before entering her space.
She now basically slept in her space at night; anyway, she could hear anything happening outside, and she really didn’t want to use other people’s old blankets.
In the space, she had already planted ten acres with crops: dry rice, wheat, corn, sorghum, millet, broomcorn, soybeans, and even some green beans and red beans in the corners.
She also planted lots of sweet potatoes and potatoes along the sides of the valley, and didn’t spare the area along the creek either, planting it with various vegetables.
Looking at the space she had completely filled, Luo Qiao felt immensely pleased. It would be great if tomorrow at the commune she could find someone selling young chickens, ducks, or geese. She had already tested it out with the mice in the house before.
The space was capable of sustaining living creatures, so for the sake of future culinary desires, she decided to raise chickens, ducks, and geese in the space. This way, in a few days, she’d have eggs and meat, how wonderful.
Gazing at the vibrant space, her mood was quite good. But when she thought about her current financial embarrassment, she knew she had to figure out a way to make some money tomorrow.
She had been busy working recently, trying to leave a good impression on the community members, and hadn’t had time to explore the mountains.
If she could return from the commune early tomorrow, she would definitely make a trip to the mountains.
After exercising in the space for half a day, the original body was quite tall, standing at 163 cm, but was far too skinny. She didn’t need a doctor to diagnose her with malnutrition.
However, over the past few days, she had sorted out her body with her special ability, and since she had cooked and drunk water using only the well water from the space, her body might look frail, but it was now quite different on the inside.
The food the brigade leader’s wife had brought could last just over a month. She needed to figure out how to get more food in order to not arouse suspicion.
