Liu Siyue clapped her hands, "Alright, alright, I've prepared so many snacks, everyone hurry up and eat."

"Like the moon and stars, come and eat something delicious!"

The two little ones excitedly ran out and whispered in Feng Yuzhen's ear, "Mom, we hid the coins under your pillow, so be sure to hide them well!"

"Okay, Mother will hide it well for you. Go and eat something."

Everyone raved about the snacks on the table, saying they were all delicious, and there wasn't a single bad one. While eating, Liu Siyue asked, "Would you like to hear a story?"

"We want to hear it! We love listening to stories, but no one in our family knows how to tell them."

"Okay, today I'll tell you a story about Chang'e flying to the moon: Legend has it that a long, long time ago, there were 10 suns in the sky, which scorched the earth. The people couldn't survive and were dying of thirst and heat."

There was a great hero named Hou Yi who, seeing the pitiful state of the people, drew his divine bow and—whoosh—whoosh!

—Whoosh—Shoot down 9 suns, let them rise in the morning and set in the evening, to bring benefits to the people.

......

The people missed the kind-hearted Chang'e dearly, so they placed her favorite foods in their courtyards and offered their blessings to her from afar. From then on, the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month became the Mid-Autumn Festival, a time for people to look forward to family reunions.

Everyone listened quietly to Liu Siyue's story. By the end, they were filled with righteous indignation. How wicked Pang Meng was! He was ungrateful and forced the fairy Chang'e to live alone on the moon. How lonely she was! She and Hou Yi could only look at each other from afar, but could never be together.

Everyone looked at the moon together, and they could vaguely see a tree in the round moon, with the fairy Chang'e holding a little white rabbit and standing under the tree watching them.

The two little ones put their hands next to their mouths to make a megaphone shape, and shouted loudly at the moon, "Fairy Chang'e, we have lots of delicious food at home, come and eat!" Everyone laughed heartily; children will be children.

Ru Yu listened intently and begged Liu Siyue to tell another one. Everyone was happy, and since they had nothing else to do, they told them another story from "Journey to the West," which was the children's favorite:

On Flower Fruit Mountain in Aolai Kingdom of Dongsheng Shenzhou, there was a celestial stone that absorbed the essence of the sun and moon over the years. One day, the celestial stone exploded, and a little monkey jumped out from it.

......

The monkey later went out to learn skills, and his master named him Sun Wukong. After learning his skills, Sun Wukong flew to the Heavenly Palace to cause trouble and was suppressed under the Five Elements Mountain by the Buddha for 500 years.

Okay, that's all for today. I'll tell you more when I have time.

Everyone found the story interesting and wanted to hear more, but Liu Siyue had already said she wouldn't tell any more, so they had no choice but to give up. They looked at Liu Siyue with starry eyes and said, "Cousin, you're really amazing. You can tell such wonderful stories."

"If you learn to read well, you'll be able to read stories by yourselves in the future."

"Yes, we will definitely study hard."

"I'm a little sleepy, I'm going to sleep now. If you're sleepy too, go to sleep early, we have to go up the mountain tomorrow."

"Okay, you go to sleep first, we'll sit for a while," Liu Dawang said.

Liu Siyue went back to her room, closed the door, and took the child into the space to take a bath and make milk. She would sleep in the space that night, which was more comfortable than outside.

After giving the baby a bath and feeding him, she gently rocked him a few times, and the baby fell asleep, but his little mouth kept sucking. His rosy cheeks were incredibly cute, and she, who had never been a mother before, couldn't help but adore him.

Liu Siyue put the child on the bed and realized that she hadn't checked on her land for several days and wondered how the sweet potatoes and potatoes she had planted were growing.

She came out of the supermarket and into the space, and was startled. When did a small wooden house appear here? Who built it? Are there other people here?

Liu Siyue didn't rush into the wooden house. She called out twice, "Is anyone there?" No one answered. She looked around the space and found that the springhead of the spirit spring had become larger, the stream had also become larger, and a lot more land had appeared. She didn't know exactly how much land there was.

She first harvested the sweet potatoes and potatoes with her mind, but cutting the seeds herself was too much trouble, so she decided to postpone planting the sweet potatoes and let them sprout first. She also discovered that the land in this space had a special feature: the first time she planted, she had to turn the soil over herself before planting. After that, she wouldn't need to turn the soil over anymore; she could harvest and plant with her mind. With so much land, how long would it take her to turn it all over by herself?

Looking at those few Ganoderma lucidum mushrooms again, they're growing even better than they did in the mountains. The growth rate is simply astonishing! The ones I took before could sell for 300 taels, but this one could probably fetch 600 taels! Hehehe~

If you really don't know what to plant, then plant chili peppers. This space is too monotonous; we should plant some trees to add some scenery.

Back in front of the cabin, she gently pushed the door open. Inside, there was only a table, a chair, a cow, some farm tools, and a bulging sack, the contents of which she couldn't tell.

She went inside the house, and the cow immediately stood up, swishing its tail and mooing at her. She waved to the cow, "Hello, big cow, welcome."

The ox bellowed again, its big, watery eyes looking at her.

"You are an ox, so the name 'Big Ox' doesn't seem very good. It's the same name the villagers call you. I'll give you another name." She thought for a moment, then had a flash of inspiration and said, "I've got it! Let's call you Bull Demon King. It sounds powerful. Do you like it?"

The bull mooed several times in a row, and Liu Siyue was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling, looking like she knew it.

"Your mouth keeps moving, are you thirsty? I'll get you some water." She went to the supermarket to get a bucket, filled it halfway with water from the stream, and added a little bit of spiritual spring water to make the ox grow strong so that it could be pulled out when the opportunity arose. Looking at its physique, it would definitely be very powerful for pulling a cart.

She was shocked to find a book on the table titled "The Farming Manual." Was she destined to become a farmer? Thinking of the scenes she'd seen on TV of farmers using oxen to plow the fields, was she really going to do that? She scratched her head. Had God brought her into this world just to be a farmer?

"My life is so miserable. Come back and save yourself," she muttered as she opened the sack. It was filled with rice. The preparations were quite complete: land, cattle, tools—everything was ready. She was just waiting to get started. What would happen if she didn't do it?

Let's not worry about that now, we'll talk about it when we have time!

She took the chili seeds and planted them in the ground with a thought. After washing her hands in the stream, she went back to sleep.

While everyone else was gathered together admiring the moon, the village chief's family and Liu Youtian's family were together sharpening their wood-chopping knives and hoes. They sharpened the knives until they were gleaming, and polished the hoes again and again, preparing for a big harvest on the mountain the next day to dig up more medicinal herbs and earn more money.

The village chief wants to send his two grandsons to school, and Liu Youtian wants to build a house for his son and help him get married.

That night, both families knew they had to get up early to go up the mountain the next day, but they were too excited to sleep. The two brothers, Liu Hongyu and Liu Hongsheng, were full of energy. With such a beautiful moon and such a beautiful night, it would be hard to pass the long night without doing something. So the two brothers did their best to torment their wives, and the bed made creaking noises in response.

Hearing this, the village chief's wife muttered under her breath, "Young people are so energetic and vigorous." The village chief overheard her and thought to himself, "I'm not that old!"

He suddenly hugged his wife tightly. Wang was startled, "What are you trying to do?"

"Wife, I'm full of energy and vigor, hehehe~"
