Era: After foreseeing the future, I changed my fate using spatial abilities.

Chapter 49 Fengzhu Ridge

"Small...small what?"

"Small circle".

Small circle!
It's not cute like Dot or Duo Duo, nor is it majestic and imposing like General or Black Tiger. Instead, it's these strange little circles!
Fu Jiaming looked at it from left to right. The little black dog was so thin that it seemed to be nothing but skin. Even its eyes weren't round. How could it possibly match its name?
"Hehe, I'm glad you like it. Hmm, it's fine."

Feeling good about herself, Su Ning nodded in agreement, shifting the little circle into a more comfortable position in her arms. "Aren't you going to buy food for Comrade Yan?"

"Bang! Oh no!"

Fu Jiaming slapped his forehead hard, then remembered that his brother was still waiting at the hospital. "Su Ning, I'm leaving now. Let's talk later!"

The leg in the cast limped quite quickly.

Before she could answer, the person had already walked away. Su Ning slowly closed her lips: It's not that I didn't want to remind you, it's that you didn't give me the chance.

He shook his head with amusement, and silently mourned for a second for Yanbei, who was waiting in the hospital, having such a not-so-bright brother.

Holding the small circle, she followed the direction he had left in until the two of them unexpectedly bumped into each other again.

Fu Jiaming pointed at her with a trembling finger, his face congested and unsure of what to say. He could only leave with a "we'll talk about it next time" before hurriedly departing.

"Hehehe~"

Unable to hold back her laughter, Su Ning patted Xiao Yuanquan's head and said, "You really have the courage to keep up with someone so directionally challenged."

Fortunately, the town is small with only one main road, which is probably the main reason why Yanbei felt comfortable letting him come out on his own.

……

Back in the guesthouse room with the little circle, Su Ning looked down and met its gaze. "Little guy, you'd better pray well."

This is the first time I've brought a living creature into the Peach Blossom Spring space. I don't know if I'll succeed.
I smelled the familiar, fresh scent, and with my eyes closed, I could still feel the warm substance in my hand. I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Little circle, come and get acquainted with your new home first."

"Woof woof~"

As soon as its feet touched the ground, it couldn't wait to run. Little Circle wasn't afraid at all; on the contrary, it felt particularly curious about the unfamiliar environment.

It frolicked around, looking here and there, and even left a bubble mark on the wall of the courtyard.

In the blink of an eye, the mark was completely cleansed by the soil, leaving no trace.

"Woof woof?"

The little circle and Taoyuan's first encounter was thus officially clashed.

I lit a fire in the kitchen and boiled a pot of water. Then I took a new wooden basin, filled it with water, and added a few ladles of cold water.

Su Ning tested the temperature with her hand, then carried the wooden basin to the yard, only to find the little guy still leaning against the wall with one leg.

"Little Circle, come and wash up!"

The tiny circle, unable to produce even a single speck, could only concede defeat and dejectedly run over when called by its owner.

She obediently let her scrub and wash her.

"Good boy, I'll reward you with a big bone later!"

"Woof~"

The little circle, having understood, let out an excited squeal and licked her palm with its tongue in a pleading manner.

Sure enough, at dinner time, the owner kept his promise and gave it a big bone with meat still on it, which made it so happy that it spun around on its short legs and couldn't stop.

Su Ning, who specially chose rice porridge with pork bone broth for a certain little one, didn't notice that after the little circle appeared, the smile in her eyes became much more genuine, and it also dispelled a lot of the cold and lonely feeling she had.

……

The next day, before dawn, Su Ning had already checked out of the hotel and was waiting at the intersection she had inquired about.

Because she needed to arrive at the place she had arranged to meet with Qin Dafeng and the others in advance, she asked the staff at the guesthouse last night how to get to Fengzhuling.

There is only one bus route from the town to Fengzhuling every morning.

This bus route doesn't have a specific departure time; it will only depart when most of the passengers have boarded, whether it's early or late.

After waiting for more than 20 minutes, we saw a bus with a front and a rear section that was partially enclosed by a large tarpaulin and called a "water hyacinth" by the locals.

There were two long benches on either side of the carriage, and she struggled to climb up and sit by the rear ventilation vent.

The ticket seller kindly reminded the girl that the rear of the bus swayed and bounced violently, and she might be thrown out if she wasn't careful. He suggested that the girl should sit near the front of the bus.

However, fearing motion sickness, she could only smile and refuse, gripping the handrail tightly with both hands. The journey was thrilling; it was Su Ning's first time riding in such a vehicle, and she didn't even care about feeling carsick, only afraid of being thrown off. After getting off the vehicle, her legs were still a bit weak and she needed a long time to recover.

It was only then that she realized what the person at the guesthouse meant by looking hesitant and saying it would be a rare experience.

We sped along the narrow mountain road, with towering mountains on one side and cliffs on the other. We could practically leap off the bench and fly so high that we could see the bottom of the cliff!

This was so thrilling, it almost scared me to death! How could it not be a rare experience?
Thinking back to how she couldn't help but scream and shout in the car, Su Ning covered her face, her palms burning hot.

Although the laughter from the people around her, who were used to it, was well-intentioned, she still felt very embarrassed.

"Where are you going, little girl? Why don't you come with us?"

The voice was a mix of dialect and Mandarin, but Su Ning managed to understand it by guessing what she meant: "I want to go to Fengzhu Ridge."

"Oh, it's not far, just over that hill!"

Looking in the direction the old woman was pointing, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it disappeared in an instant without leaving a trace. He thanked her and said he wanted to rest a little longer at the crossroads.

Until the kind old lady who had been on the same bus and got off at the same time kept looking back at her, she slowly left the bend and her figure gradually disappeared into the mountain path.

Suning quickly ran in the direction the ticket seller had indicated and left the spot.

She remembered clearly that the ticket seller had said that after getting off at this main intersection, there would be three roads. The one leading to Fengzhu Ridge was the western one, and it would take about half an hour to see the hillside covered with bamboo.

That's Fengzhu Ridge, and right next to it is the Fengzhu Tunnel on the national highway.

As for why the old lady gave directions in the opposite direction…

She never makes malicious assumptions about others, but she's also not foolish enough to confuse truth with falsehood and good with evil.

Upon arriving at the foot of Fengzhu Ridge without stopping, Su Ning climbed while carefully observing the surrounding environment.

Only after reaching the top of the mountain and clearly seeing the national highway not far away on the other side did I feel at ease and choose a good spot.

Once a safe place was found, they quickly entered Peach Blossom Spring and chose to wait in the space for the agreed time.

The old woman, who had been secretly hiding in the shadows but hadn't seen her for a long time, was filled with resentment and could only reluctantly turn into the path leading back to the village and leave.

……

There are plenty of things to do in this space to pass the time, and before you know it, the appointed time has quietly arrived.

Su Ning touched the little circle rolling happily at her feet, then flashed out of the space and quickly arrived at the place she had chosen earlier.

Just as they moved all the supplies that had been prepared in advance from the open space, they heard shouts coming from the hillside.

"Ning Ning?"

"It's my Uncle Qin, over here!"

After much deliberation, Qin Dafeng still felt that it was too dangerous for a young girl like her, who was injured, to come to this desolate place to deliver the goods.

I arrived at the place early, still worried, and only breathed a sigh of relief when I saw the person standing there safely.

The two people who came with him this time were his younger brother, Qin Dacang, and Qin Dacang's son, who was also his nephew, Qin Guangzong.

"Uncle Qin, Brother Guangzong!"

“Hey, Ningwa.” “Ningning.”

Qin Dacang responded with a wide smile, his face full of wrinkles. Qin Guangzong, who was also a father and son and looked exactly alike, also smiled so broadly that his eyes disappeared.

They had all heard from their older brother/uncle that Ningwa/Ningning was a kind and good-hearted person, and that they had specifically asked them for help this time to deliver good work to the family.

Twenty yuan per person!

They pay so much for just one trip of cargo. Is it some kind of lucrative job that's specially delivered to them?
Which village man doesn't have some strength? It doesn't matter who you ask.

Therefore, the father and son's gratitude towards her soared just as rapidly as their affection for her.

Just like the eldest brother/uncle said, Ningwazi/Ningning is their Qin family's niece/sister by a different surname!
Not only do you have to work hard to do this job well, but you also have to exceed the target. As for keeping it confidential, your own mother and wife won't say a word about it!

Unaware of the complex inner thoughts of the father and son, Su Ning greeted them and led them to the place where the goods were stored.

This place is not only close to the meeting point between the national highway and the factory's transport team, but it is also very secluded. You wouldn't know there was such a spacious depression unless you went in and parted the thatch.

"Uncle Qin, have you managed to borrow the scale from the team?"

"Don't worry, we've borrowed it. It's on the oxcart down the slope."

Can I take a day off tomorrow for my birthday? Emmm, haha, just thinking about it. But it's true I might post this a little late. I hope you all will be understanding tomorrow. Thank you for warming my heart~ Thank you all for your votes~ Sending love!
