My whole family time-traveled! I became a god during my exile in a famine.

Chapter 174 Thorough Consideration
"I'll take care of it, I'll find someone to keep it." Xin Nian smiled and shook Doctor Zhuang's hand. "Everyone has worked hard. Doctor Zhuang, why are there so many extra people behind you?"

"Oh, these other six doctors are all recruited from the West City. Doctor Xiao Xin, these doctors also fled from other places. They have no home or job, so they might as well work with us from now on!"

My subordinates will recruit people from outside for her!

Xin Nianlao felt comforted and shook Dr. Zhuang's hand again, "If you think it's feasible, then it is. Dr. Zhuang, I'll have to trouble you to take care of these doctors in the future."

"No need to worry, it's just a matter of everyone studying medicine together."

Xin Nian gave Chi Jue a wink and beckoned the group of doctors to a nearby small hall.

She first pretended to go in and take out seventeen or eighteen melons, then came out and invited the doctors to go in.

Everyone was surprised to see a field of melons. Xin Nian told them to stay and eat the melons, while she happily returned to the back door.

Xin Nian took the booklet from Chi Jue's hand and flipped through it repeatedly, her eyes full of surprise. "Have you two been busy sending people to dig up the mountain and collect seeds these past few days?"

"How was it?" Chi Jue raised an eyebrow. "The results were alright, weren't they?"

"Hmm, quite good." The two of them remembered the names of the medicinal herbs and plants clearly, and even dug up many flowers and trees by the roots, recording them one by one.

Xin Nian raised his hand and moved all the cars lined up into the food section.

After she absorbed two energy stones and advanced to the fifth rank, all the spaces, including the condensed pearl, were upgraded accordingly.

The condensed space has now reached eighty cubic meters. The things that the Changshi family moved away used ten of her condensed space beads.

She can now create up to thirty spatial beads.

Compared to the past, this represents a tremendous qualitative leap in terms of space.

She has plenty of space to store things now; the things that Xiao Xiao and Xiao Chi sent people to scour the mountains and fields these past few days are quite a surprise.

The three of them found a shady spot and chatted while eating watermelon.

When Xie Hui and Lu Xiangying found the little girl, they saw her with His Highness on the left and General Chi on the right, the three of them sitting side by side on the steps, eating melons and laughing heartily about something...

Xie Hui couldn't bear to watch this scene.

Lu Xiangying coughed, drawing the attention of the three people in front.

"You two have arrived?" Xin Nian stood up and waved to them. "Come and join us for some melon seeds."

So Xie Hui and Lu Xiangying also joined in the gossip.

"I only saw this melon once last year at the palace banquet. It seems to have been a tribute from the Western Regions. It is truly rare." Lu Xiangying took a bite and felt refreshed and all the summer heat disappeared. She could even feel a coolness spreading from her chest to her whole body, making her feel extremely comfortable.

"What a great melon!"

Lord Lu had eaten this melon at palace banquets before, but it wasn't as sweet and juicy as this, and it didn't taste as good either...

It's an indescribable feeling, like taking a bite of melon and feeling incredibly refreshed.

"This melon tastes even better chilled." After eating the melon, Xin Nian wanted to urge Chang Mianmian to make a breakthrough as soon as possible.

Although the food section was open, they had previously stored a lot of ice, and she even dug up a small pile of snow to store so she could use it at any time.

But this thing diminishes with use, so we need to upgrade Mianmian to achieve sustainable use.

"Lord Lu has worked hard these past few days, please have a few more pieces."

"His Highness the Crown Prince has been gathering people to collect various plants from the mountains and forests for the past few days."

"We also found a lot of hunters to take Lord Liuhuo and the others into the mountains to hunt. They should be back tonight."

"You even hired people to go into the mountains to hunt wild animals?"

"Hmm." Xiao Jinzhi nodded matter-of-factly and winked at her. "I told them to try to catch as many alive as possible. There are also quite a few chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, sheep and cattle left over at the pasture. You can come with me to take a look later."

Xin Nian was moved to tears, grabbed Xiao Jinzhi, and said sincerely, "You've worked hard. I'll personally stir-fry a spicy rabbit head for you tonight as a reward." Chi Jue rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky, "His Highness doesn't eat spicy food."

"Yes, I can eat it. I love everything Nian Nian makes." Xiao Jinzhi denied it three times in a row, seeing Xin Nian's "you don't eat spicy food" look in her eyes.

Chi Jue's eye-rolling was practically envious...

"Then I'll also make you stir-fried beef with scallions, fried meatballs, cold noodles, and winter melon and seaweed soup!"

Everyone glared at her with accusatory eyes.

Uncle Xie Hui spoke weakly, "You've made me hungry..."

"It's lunchtime soon, why don't you have lunch instead of dinner?" Lord Lu looked at her expectantly.

Xin Nian thought it was a good idea and pulled Xiao Jinzhi up, "Then let's go to the meadow to see the animals first, and see you in the dining room later."

Xiao Jinzhi led her to the pasture and collected all the poultry and livestock before heading to the dining hall, satisfied.

The young man is so thoughtful! He's been busy these past few days in Binzhou Prefecture.

Xin Nian looked at Xiao Jinzhi with a kind gaze, making him both laugh and cry.

"Do you like it?" he asked with a smile.

Xin Nian nodded repeatedly, "Very good! You've considered everything very thoroughly."

To express her gratitude and encouragement, Xin Nian rolled two more spatial beads and gave them to him. "Although they are still not as big as the spatial beads I gave you before, these two can still hold quite a bit. Use them to carry odds and ends on your journey."

Xiao Jinzhi smiled, her eyes crinkling. "Thank you."

Xin Nian waved her hand with considerable authority, "Between you and me, there's no need for thanks."

Around 7 PM, Liu Huo led the hunters down the mountain and hunted many pheasants and rabbits, as well as two wild deer.

Xiao Jinzhi ordered his men to give the reward money and then let the hunters leave on their own.

Xin Nian looked at the group of people who were in a hurry, and calmly collected all the wild animals in front of Liu Huo and Zhu Yan.

"They're rushing to buy rice. All the rice shops in the city will be closed after today. The price of rice is changing every fifteen minutes now," Chi Jue said with a sigh.

Who could have imagined a month ago that prices would rise so ridiculously?
The rice shops were only willing to sell their grain because of pressure from the local government. They've managed to sell to this day at best.

As they were speaking, the sky suddenly darkened.

Countless exclamations arose from all directions.

No one dared to look up at the sky; even with their eyes covered, they dared not risk their sight.

Even after Xin Nian went back to her room to rest, the polar day remained the polar day.

Xin Nian was awakened in the middle of the night by the noise outside the mansion.

Looking out the window, I saw that the sky was displaying an eerie, multicolored hue.

Xin Nian immediately packed up all the things in her room, and even took the hot spring next door.

The room was empty, and Xin Nian lay outside on the veranda, hugging a small pillow.

After thinking it over, she realized that everything in the garden had been carefully selected and prepared for her by her aunt, and she couldn't let go of a single thing; she had to take it all with her.

She then went through all the side rooms one by one, expressionless, and looked at the Xin family sisters who were still fast asleep on the floor, and even clicked her tongue in admiration, "Their sleep quality is really good."

Chang Mianmian, clutching her small pillow and looking bewildered, pushed open the door and came out, exchanging a glance with her sister.

Where is my bed?

Xin Nian: ...
