On the Gu family’s side, Gu Nian had cooked a plate of crispy potato chips with chili peppers for lunch and had conquered the entire family of four. “Dad, Mom, this is delicious. When are we going to plant it? ! Plant More!”Gu Xin loved crispy potato chips with chili peppers so much that she couldn’t wait to ask after lunch. “Let’s go look at the seeds later. We didn’t have time to look at them carefully yesterday!”Cai Xiaolian said. In her previous life, Cai Xiaolian was born into a wealthy family. She married into a well-matched family. However, her family went bankrupt later. After her divorce, she started her own business from nothing. She didn’t know anything about planting, but she was very confident. Her family had a doctorate in biology. It would be child’s play to plant potatoes. “Mom, can we plant some in the vegetable garden first? The things planted in the vegetable garden will mature in three to five days. We can save more and eat them for a long time! Didn’t Master Zhou say yesterday that these three things can be stored for a long time?”Gu Xin suggested. Hearing her mention Master Zhou, the transmigrator trio looked at her. “What’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?”Gu Xin was stunned by the looks from the three of them. “No, no. We just think that Xinxin is so smart! She actually thought of this. Alright, we’ll plant it in the vegetable garden later.”Gu shouxin shook his head and smiled. Cai Xiaolian & Gu Nianzhi:”...” How could this be related to being smart? After lunch, the family of four began to choose the seeds. Gu Xin was especially enthusiastic. When the seeds were chosen, she even volunteered to plant them with Gu Nian and let her parents do other things. Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian indeed had other things to do. Gu Shouxin had to go upstairs to tidy up, while Cai Xiaolian had to go to Gu Nian’s room to tidy up a small laboratory. Their room was surrounded by earthen walls, the roof was made of tiles, and under the tiles were wooden planks that were parallel to the ground. In this way, there was a space between the tiles and the wooden planks for storing things. The entrance to this space was just outside Cai Xiaolian and Gu Shouxin’s room, and there was a wooden ladder. Most of the houses in San Cha Kou village had the same structure. The houses with earthen walls did not have good lighting. Gu Nianzhi wanted a laboratory, and Gu Shouxin wanted a study. Cai Xiaolian walked around Gu Nianzhi’s room and finally decided to give up on the idea. She walked outside the room and walked around. In the end, she decided to build a room in the corner of Houyang Ditch to serve as Gu Nianzhi’s laboratory. As for Gu Shouxin’s study, she had no choice but to build it in the central room or somewhere else. After a busy afternoon, the whole family was tired and the house had changed drastically. The cobwebs in the corner were gone, and the kitchen had been cleaned up. Cai Xiaolian had already planned out Gu Nianzhi’s laboratory and was waiting to get uncle Gu to build some boards. In the evening, the four of them sat by the fire and chatted after dinner. “Father, mother, sister, when I went to bed last night, I had already made arrangements for what I would do every day,”Gu Xin said excitedly. “Oh? Our Xin Xin is so young, but she already has a plan for her life? Tell me about it.”The transmigrator trio looked at Gu Xin. “No matter if it’s sunny or rainy, I have to get up at midnight every morning. I have to practice for two hours. Then, I have to learn how to read and write from my father for two hours in the morning. Then, I’ll help my sister. In the afternoon, I’ll dig wild vegetables and pick dry wood. Then, I’ll listen to my parents and sister’s instructions. When mom goes to sell things, you have to bring me along! I have to learn how to sell things,”Gu Xin said.
