Chapter 117 Zhao Xiaoya Asks for Help 117
"Go back and sell an acre of land," Old Man Zhang had no other choice. His son had reached an age where he wanted to carry on the family line.

"We have to sell the land," Zhang Datou said reluctantly, "We only have five acres of land, which is barely enough for our family to eat. If we sell it, we won't have enough to eat."

Old Man Zhang also understood this. He was about to marry a wife and raise a grandchild. After deducting various taxes, food would only become increasingly scarce.

"What can we do? In addition to the betrothal gifts, we have to set up a few tables, and all of this costs money." She hated herself for being useless as an old woman and not being able to control her eldest son and daughter-in-law. She had worked so hard to get back the food and dried meat, but now she had to send it back.

Old Man Zhang slapped his thigh fiercely, "Why am I so stupid? That unlucky guy didn't come out to check the things just now, so why did we send everything back so honestly?"

Zhang Datou felt extremely upset when he thought that there was indeed nothing left at home. Why didn't he think of this at the time?
"Why don't we wait until they leave and ask my mother to go..."

"Why are you going?" Old Man Zhang didn't have the guts to do that. "These people in the underworld are elusive. Who knows when they will appear again? Don't you want to die?"

"But my mother is also their mother..."

"When that idiot Dashi comes back, we'll have a good talk with him. As long as Li Dashi has no objection, we'll let them fight among themselves. That's a matter between them and their son, so we, father and son, shouldn't get involved."

"That makes sense."

Yuntutu now has experience, and there are a lot of cooked food and packaged meals in the trunk of the car. Yuntutu took a portion of sweet and sour pork ribs, fried shrimps in Bifengtang, stir-fried pork with green peppers, and a bowl of broth.

Liu Lanying didn't ask any more questions. She knew wild vegetables, so she picked some from the back mountain and made a cold dish. This sumptuous meal made Zhao Xiaoya a little restless. "This is too rich."

"Eat," Liu Lanying poured her a bowl of soup, "You need to eat something nutritious so that the baby can grow well."

But she is still a child, but she is already pregnant. When the time comes for the baby to mature, there will be many crises.

Yuntutu distributed a portion of the pre-packed meal to each person and said, "You need to eat more. You are too thin."

Zhao Xiaoya had never eaten such delicious food before, but the fried pork with peppers was so spicy that she only tasted a small piece and didn't dare to use her chopsticks anymore. But even so, she ate until her stomach was full.

After dinner, the issue of accommodation came up. Although they had two rooms, the other one didn't even have a kang, and they couldn't let Sister Yun and the others sleep on the floor, so Xiaoya invited them to sleep together in the room.

Yun Tutu shook his head, "Don't worry about the problem, we will solve it ourselves."

Liu Lanying didn't want to sleep in that stuffy room either. "We'll just have to spend the night in the car."

Yun Tutu didn't want to sleep in the car again. Even if the mattress was thick and solid, he couldn't stretch his body and it would be uncomfortable to sleep.

Since the last time he came back, he brought the safe house that he had exchanged from Xie Yufei with him and placed a simple mattress in it.

He found a relatively flat place in the backyard and skillfully opened the safe house, which opened the eyes of Liu Lanying and Zhao Xiaoya again.

It's amazing that a house can be built out of thin air.

"Is our technology so advanced?" Liu Lanying walked around the house. This was too shocking. She had to calm down. "This was also exchanged from other planes." Yun Tutu knew that Liu Lanying would definitely have to sign those agreements when she returned, so there was nothing she couldn't say. "But I heard from Brother Zhang that our own research has also made some progress, and it will definitely not be long before it is released to the public."

Liu Lanying pondered, it seems that Yuntutu's travels through various worlds have great benefits, and the martial arts plane is actually not bad. If there is something that is beneficial to her own world, she must bring it back.

Isn't it just living in this backward world for a few more days? That's no problem, you can treat it as a business trip.

Others cannot travel through dimensions, but she takes advantage of her medical skills, otherwise it would not be her turn.

After figuring it all out, Liu Lanying relaxed completely and never mentioned the issue of going back again.

"There is only one big mattress here. Aunt Liu, please squeeze in with me tonight," Yun Tutu led her into the room. There was nothing inside except a mattress and a quilt.

Yuntutu took out another set of quilts. The 1.5-meter mattress was a bit crowded for two people, but it was better than living in the car.

Zhao Xiaoya was very envious of such a house. It was a great house, spacious and bright, and it exuded a light and elegant fragrance.

"By the way, Xiaoya, I want to ask, are you not far from the beach?" Liu Lanying suddenly asked when she sent Zhao Xiaoya back to the thatched hut in front.

"It's two or three mountains away. It doesn't look far, but it's actually quite difficult to walk on." Zhao Xiaoya didn't rush into the room, but walked slowly in the small living room. "It will take two or three days to walk from here."

"Are there two or three more mountains beyond this big mountain?"

"I think so. I haven't been there either. Dashi from my family mentioned it. He said that you can see the sea after climbing over a few mountains. However, there are not many people living there, and the waves are very rough."

The two chatted for a while, and Zhao Xiaoya was tired, so she simply closed the door in front of her and went into her room early to rest.

"It's a pity that the sea is far away from here," Liu Lanying said with some regret, "If we can find a fishing village, we can also bring back some dried seafood."

Yun Tutu's eyes lit up, "Aunt Liu, how do you know how far they are from Haimen?"

"Can't you just smell it? Don't you smell a faint smell of the sea in the air?"

Yun Tutu sniffed a few times and asked, "Where is the smell of the sea?"

"When the wind blows over, there is a faint fishy smell. My hometown is in a coastal city, so I am particularly familiar with this smell." Liu Lanying couldn't help but laugh when she saw Yun Tutu breathing hard in the house. The room must be filled with perfume to cover up any strong smell.

"There is an ocean," Yun Tutu was a little excited. "I just graduated from high school and went to the beach with my classmates once. I really want to see the ocean again."

"It means we have to cross several mountains and it will take several days to go back and forth," Liu Lanying also felt it was a pity. Ever since the Japanese pirates' detoxifying water, she hasn't dared to eat seafood for a long time.

Even if I occasionally eat those so-called imported products from Europe, I am always extremely nervous, fearing that they are not what I want and I won’t enjoy the food at all.

"A few mountains are not far away for us," Yun Tutu was also excited. If he could find a small fishing village, it would mean that he could eat seafood freely.

"This is not like where we are, where there are straight roads," Liu Lanying smiled and shook her head, "We are unfamiliar with this place, so we'd better not barge in recklessly."
