CHAPTER 3 - THE NEW WORLD

People's Republic of China - 1961

Upon returning to the real world Li Xue sat on the Kang and looked around him, from now on this is his new life and his new home.

The room she was in was the room she shared with her grandmother Li, in addition to the kang there was a locker where Grandma Li put some valuables left by her parents (the parents of the original) to be her dowry. that is why the rest she locked in the pantry cupboard, like the food of her small family of two.

The room was simple but very clean and well maintained, the original had a careful personality, but too innocent and kind, something that Li Xue only pretended to be, never was, but acting like the original is the best for her for now, because nobody I would imagine her being so kind and acting selfishly, after all this is a characteristic of Li Xue, she is selfish to guarantee her survival.

After recording the details of the room and confirming them from the memories she obtained. She turned her attention to the appearance of her new body, and this body was unfortunate, although this body was already 16 years old about to turn 17 after the new year, it developed little because of high malnutrition, because at the time in they encounter is scarcity in the country almost as a whole. Having a meal a day is a luxury, and Li Xue only has it because his grandmother manages to work as a seamstress at the city factory, which guarantees him a salary and meal voucher, in addition Li Xue herself participates in the counting of work points at commune in the village, but the main factor is that the family was separated after the father's death from the original, so her grandmother's small salary was enough for her small family of three, before her mother died too, which made the minor burden of spending, but emotionally greater for his grandmother who had to raise her orphan granddaughter alone, the only daughter of her eldest son who died fighting for the country in the army.

Although this era is full of patriarchal ideologies, her grandmother never owes those ideologies for the memories she received, on the contrary she seems to have loved her granddaughter from the beginning, and while many had such a child full of bad luck, her grandmother never let it be believed. Well, Ms. Lin Zhao was a great grandmother for the original and it is not for nothing that she was the one who generated the regret after her death.

Now the regret of the original is not difficult to accomplish, her only request is to be able to correctly pay her filial piety to her grandmother ensuring that she has a good old age without worrying about her granddaughter, being able to rest instead of working until exhaustion becoming sick and then dying. But it is clear that the disease was not the main reason for the death of grandmother Li, but the other factor has to be avoided easily, since different from the original Li Xue is not so innocent to trust other people just because they are yours blood relatives.

For now Li Xue put these thoughts aside and concentrated on exploring the small hut in which she lived with her grandmother, this house was not the poorest in the village, but it was far from being like the brick house built by the father of the original while alive, this house was the one left for the two widows and the child orphaned by the Li family, after all that family are a bunch of traitors, so Li Xue's father was no longer alive they found a way to take possession of the house built by him, his grandmother Li tried to fight against them, but he didn't succeed, so he cut ties with his other children with the separation and came to live with his daughter-in-law and granddaughter, to ensure that at least his salary would not be taken by the pack of white-eyed wolves.

As far as she was able to understand from the original memories, the Li family has two children still alive, that is to say uncles of this body in addition to five grandchildren being three boys and two girls, excluding herself.

And it is this family that was directly and indirectly involved in the death of the original and Grandma Li in the past life, this is expected to happen within two years or so, so Li Xue does not worry about it, after all she she is not an ignorant girl from the village, and she already has many ways to avoid the predicted ending, because in addition to now having access to the space that seems to have many things that can be used for this purpose, she also has a plan to ensure avoiding suspicions by remove the goods from space, but to be able to follow this idea, first she has to get used to the new environment, and get to know all the people with whom the original had contact to avoid acting in a very different way. But the most important thing to follow your plans is to improve the condition of this body slowly.

…

While Li Xue decided that she would first cultivate her body, she decided to enter the space again, after all Grandma Li will only come back later, and as at the moment the village is going through the period after planting, that is, waiting now the plantation bears fruit to be harvested, there was no work to be done by it, so use that free time to get to know the space in detail and find out what kind of advantages it can bring at the moment.

When she lay down on the bed and closed her eyes she immediately imagined herself in space and when she opened her eyes again she was lying on that strange black ground again, she immediately got up, the sensation passed by this soil is very strange. Looking around, she saw the screen with descriptions of the land and went to it to read.

"Highly fertile soil, perfect for planting any type of seed, from common to those generated by interdimensional space. Its advantages are in the fact that any plantation will have twice the yield being planted directly in this soil, with minimal need for care after planting. It is only recommended that it be watered at least once after planting with the spiritual water of the lake of dreams also found in space, which can increase productivity four times higher than what you would previously obtain. "

Reading the descriptions on the screen aloud, Li Xue couldn't help thinking that this was totally a cheat, because if someone in a period of famine and drought has access to land that can plant anything and water that makes planting generates such great income, isn't it the same as giving a free pass for survival? Not that she was complaining, she just thinks that there are many benefits to be given to someone like her, who killed and tortured many people in her past life just for the sake of survival, only from the strongest.

Well, at least she doesn't have to worry about continuing to look malnourished, now that she knows this terrain is so good, she definitely can even ignore the strange feeling of how he communicates with her when they touch, this must happen for that this soil is literally quite alive somehow.

Before starting to plant and use the resources of the space she decided to go to the lake, after all the name given to the water and the lake generated a certain curiosity in knowing what kind of description would generate these cheesy names.

"Lake of dreams, by drinking the spiritual water from this lake, you can cure almost any disease, in addition to neutralizing various types of poisons, which will generate a healthier and more resistant body if you have a continuous consumption, this water can be used for all needs daily including bathing with it, ensuring the healing of any wound more quickly, it is also ideal for an improvement in health in skin and hair, if using water in all your daily activities over time generated greater effects in the long run deadline. together with the highly fertile soil this water will generate great yield in your plantations in addition to… "

Li Xue couldn't help but start rolling her eyes as she read, because after a while, she realized that these descriptions were more like advertisements trying to sell suspicious products, she can't help but sigh, but after all she would have to test all these quality, especially water consumption, as it can strengthen the body against common diseases, this would be perfect for Grandma Li.

After viewing this information on the outside of the hut, she already had an idea of what the other descriptions were probably about, she followed it to the hut there was also a basic description that summarized it as the place within the space where time did not. he passed by ensuring that all the food, or objects stored in it, did not age any more after his arrival, and that is what guaranteed that nothing would spoil as it normally would over time.

The seeds, on the other hand, had a description that she was more likely to generate large harvests, but their best effects occur only if used in the soil of the space and using the spiritual water of the lake. The other foods, on the other hand, were described as common foods in their majority, except that some meats and eggs have the description of being healthier due to the fact that they are animals fed by the products generated from space.

But Li Xue's most interesting descriptions of the bookcase, as she was specified by book category, and some of the books largely attract her attention, are those related to plants that can be turned into medicines or the most interesting ones poisons, as a botanical expert in her past life, at a level to be known as the queen of poisons, was her only pleasure in that life, although she used her talent mostly to kill and torture, but now she can simply focus on such matters as hobbie, and for self defense of course.

Li Xue is so excited that she spent a long time looking at each of the books until she realized that if she stayed in the hut it was like time did not pass, but the time outside would continue to pass normally, so she immediately got up and put the books away. books in place, after packing everything she was ready to leave but remembered the spiritual water she wanted Grandma Li to use, so she took a bucket she had in the living room and tools from the cabin and went to the lake to fill it , then I immediately went to the funds door to the hut and left the space.
