Shen Lianxin saw them put on their rotten clothes again, frowned and asked, "Don't you have any other clothes to change into?"

Several children shook their heads and said, "The others are too small. These are patched up from clothes that were too small before. Mom, we can just wear this. It's okay." Gu Chengxin stood up and said.

Shen Lianxin felt bitter in her heart. How hard these children had lived before. She sighed with emotion, went back to her room and took out the clothes she bought in the city. "These are yours. Take them and change into them."

Gu Chengxin and Gu Chengzhen showed surprise in their eyes. Gu Chengan happily came over to take the clothes, "We have a share too! They are so beautiful. Thank you, mother."

Shen Lianxin touched Gu Chengan's head and found that except for the initial unfamiliarity yesterday, this second child actually loved to be close to her the most among the children. His mind was simpler and more like a child.

The children happily took their clothes back to their rooms to change, the bath water in the yard was poured out, and the bottles of toiletries were neatly placed. This home was a little shabby, but overall it was clean and tidy, thanks to the deceased Gu Dingbei, who loved cleanliness. Except when he went hunting in the mountains, he always kept tidy at home. The children followed his example and couldn't stand the slightest mess.

Shen Lianxin thought it was not appropriate for such young children to sleep on the floor. Although the weather was hot now, it was cold underground and they would get sick easily. Moreover, she had heard people say more than once that Gu Chengjing was a sickly child. Although he was not sick now, he looked much thinner than Cheng An and seemed to be more than one year younger.

Shen Lianxin pretended to go back to her room and bought two sets of 8-jin thick quilts and three summer quilts in the space mall. She took them to the children's room and spread them on the straw mat. Gu Chengan was surprised, "Mom, did you buy these from the city today? They are so good, so fragrant, so soft and so warm!"

Shen Lianxin smiled and nodded, Gu Chengzhen happily took off his shoes and jumped up. Gu Chengjing was also full of surprise.

Only Gu Chengxin glanced at Shen Lianxin dimly and said, "Mom's backpack can really hold a lot of things."

Shen Lianxin was shocked and looked up at Gu Chengxin, who pursed his lips and said nothing. Shen Lianxin ignored him either.

"It's not good to always sleep on the floor. Wait for mother to think of a way to make a bed for you."

When the children heard this, they clapped their hands happily. After making their beds, Shen Lianxin let them sleep by themselves.

This makes her less worried. Unlike before, when coaxing a child to sleep was a big job, now if she is asked to coax four children to sleep, she is afraid she will be exhausted to death.

Shen Lianxin returned to the yard, sat on a stool, looked at the moonlight quietly, feeling quiet and peaceful.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door, and Aunt Zhang knocked twice and came in. This family was bare-bones, and the door was just a symbol. It was not a barrier, and there was no need to worry about thieves. To put it bluntly, even mice would cry and leave. So Aunt Zhang knocked symbolically and went in.

"Lianxin, are you home? It's me!"

Shen Lianxin stood up, smiling, "Aunt Zhang is here. Why are you here so late?"

Aunt Zhang rolled her eyes at her in anger and said, "Let me see what a mess you have made of our family! Humph!"

Shen Lianxin raised her eyebrows and said nothing. Could he have come to quarrel with her on purpose in the middle of the night?

Seeing that Shen Lianxin didn't say anything, his tone softened, "Look, didn't you say that you spent all your money on cloth? And you've also wasted all the grain. I'll take care of this for you first. My family doesn't have much grain left."

After saying that, he threw a small bag on the table, didn't even look at Shen Lianxin, patted his butt and left. He didn't forget to say, "I'm not doing this for your sake, this is for the child."

Shen Lianxin found it funny. It was the first time she met someone with a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Most of the people she knew before were sweet-mouthed but treacherous, and they would calculate others clearly while chatting and laughing.

Such a person has a cold appearance but a kind heart. Shen Lianxin thinks she is very cute.

When she opened the bag, she saw that it was filled with brown rice. The rice grains were dark and had no fragrance. She would not eat such rice, let alone feed it to her children. But she knew that even such food was very precious to the peasants in Yunshan Village who made a living by working in the fields.

Shen Lianxin felt grateful. Although Aunt Zhang always scolded her during the more than one year when the original owner was in a daze, she actually helped the children.

Shen Lian thought, maybe this would be her first friend since she came to this world. She also liked to make friends with such simple and lovely people.

Several children poked their heads out to look at her. Shen Lianxin looked over and asked, "Why aren't you sleeping yet?"

The children immediately shrank back and lay down under the quilt.

Gu Chengjing suddenly asked, "Tell me, has mother changed?"

Gu Chengan said happily, "Mom hasn't changed. She's just turned back into the original mom, the mom before Dad passed away."

Gu Chengzhen also said softly, "Anyway, I like my mother now. She bathes me, makes bubbles for me, makes meat for me to eat, and even rubs me with perfume. Smell it, is it fragrant?"

As he said this, he put his little face in front of his brothers so that they could smell it. The children were amused and said it smelled good.

"It smells so good. Tomorrow I want my mother to apply perfume on me too, and it will smell this good too." Gu Chengan said enviously.

Only Gu Chengxin smiled but didn't say anything. He felt that his mother was different, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. In short, his mother was too good now, too good to be real. He didn't dare to think about it, for fear of finding an answer he didn't want, and that his current happiness was all an illusion, just like today's bubble, which would burst in an instant.

The next morning, birds were singing and the grass was fragrant.

Shen Lianxin was awakened by mosquito bites. This mountain village at the foot of the mountain was good in every way, except that there were too many mosquitoes. She had several bites on her arms. Shen Lianxin sat up and quickly opened the system mall, muttering, "Medicine, medicine, medicine, I need to buy some medicine!"

After searching for a long time, he still couldn't find it. The search didn't work either, so he shouted impatiently, "Tongzi, come out."

Tongzi No. 999 spoke up, "Is there something wrong with the host?"

"Why are there no medicines for sale? I want to buy some medicines, some cooling oil, some comfrey ointment, some Wubidi!"

Tongzi: "The medical sector is a separate sector and needs to be unlocked. To unlock it, you need to complete a task. Do you accept the task, host?"

"Still need to unlock? What mission?"

Tongzi: "The mission is very simple, which is to find a hundred-year-old ginseng."

Hundred-year-old ginseng? I have never planted it, I don’t know what it is, and I definitely can’t find it.

Shen Lianxin frowned, "Where can I find a hundred-year-old ginseng? I can't find it."

Tongzi, "Host, don't worry. Tongzi can help you. The patrol locator can identify all valuable Chinese herbal medicines within a hundred meters and provide accurate positioning. How is it? Excellent!"

"Why didn't you tell me about this cheat earlier? Then accept the mission."

Tongzi: "Host, are you sure you want to accept the mission?"

“Ok, ok, ok!!”
