Chu Rong placed the new bed in the room. There was not much space left, but Chu Qingzhi was still grateful for what Chu Rong had done for her.

Li Qingyu made the bed for Chu Qingzhi. “Qingzhi, sorry for making you squeeze on the same bed with your sister in the past few days.”

Chu Qingzhi pulled Li Qingyu to sit down. “Mother, don’t say that. We’re family.”

Li Qingyu smiled. “I won’t disturb you anymore. Rest well.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled and nodded. “Yes, Mother.”

Chu Qingzhi lay on the bed and tossed and turned, unable to sleep. She was a cultivator, so she did not have to sleep much.

She turned her head and looked at Chu Second, who was sleeping on another bed. Then, she left a spiritual sense, got out of bed, and left the house.

After she flew into the forest, the tiger quickly ran up to her and rubbed against her calf.

Chu Qingzhi smiled and patted the tiger’s head. It was furry and very soft to the touch. “Let’s go and see if there are any fruits.”

After Chu Qingzhi sat on its back, the tiger strode into the depths of the forest.

The tiger was the king of all beasts. When the wild beasts saw it, they avoided it.

Two monkeys and two big black bears came over to help look for fruits.

After searching for a while, Chu Qingzhi saw a few orange trees. The red oranges were like small lanterns hanging on the trees, emitting a strong fruit fragrance. They were very tempting.

The bear immediately picked an orange for Chu Qingzhi.

Chu Qingzhi peeled off the skin and fed herself a piece. As she chewed, it was so sour that she frowned.

She quickly spat it out. “Bah, bah, bah…”

Chu Qingzhi got off the tiger’s back and walked towards the fruit tree. “The fruit looks so beautiful, but in fact, it’s so sour that my teeth almost fell off.”

She walked around the fruit tree twice before reaching out to grab one and injecting her spiritual power into it. “Nourished with my spiritual power, it should be sweet now.”

Under the nourishment of spiritual power, the tree seemed to be surrounded by a faint fluorescence. It was beautiful and mysterious.

The animals quickly surrounded the tree, breathing hard, and then narrowed their eyes in enjoyment.

A few minutes later, Chu Qingzhi removed the spell and picked another fruit to taste.

“Sweet!”

Chu Qingzhi patted the little monkey’s head and said with a smile, “Little monkey, go and get your monkey friends to help me pick oranges.”

Upon receiving the order, the little monkey immediately climbed up the branch and ran.

Chu Qingzhi walked to the vines at the side and cast a spell. She made a few baskets and used them to store the oranges later.

She finished weaving the baskets, and the monkeys returned.

Chu Qingzhi waved at the little monkeys. “Monkeys, pick all the oranges and put them in these baskets. I’ll take them away later.”

The little monkeys jumped and squeaked.

Chu Qingzhi turned around. “Bears, you’re in charge of putting the oranges into the baskets. Try not to break the oranges.”

The bears patted their chests to indicate that there was no problem.

After that, the animals got busy.

Chu Qingzhi continued to nourish the other orange trees with her spiritual power. There were a total of five trees, and the nourishment was quickly completed.

She stood at the side and rubbed her chin. Five orange trees could produce about 500 catties of oranges. These oranges could not be eaten in a short time and had to be made into something else.

It was summer now. What should she make?

“I got it!”

Chu Qingzhi suddenly snapped her fingers. She looked around and carried a big rock to the side to put it in the basket.

After picking the oranges, Chu Qingzhi sat on the tiger and let the two bears carry the oranges back home.

After putting down the orange, Chu Qingzhi tapped the space between each animal’s eyebrows and gave them some spiritual power as a reward. Then, she let them return to the forest.

Chu Qingzhi walked over and took the big rock out of the basket. Then, she cast a spell on the rock.

This spell would make the big rock bone-chilling. As long as something was placed within a meter of it, it would immediately freeze.

Now, there was one more thing she needed, and that was the juicer!

What she wanted to make was orange ice cream.

A juicer, a juicer…

Chu Qingzhi suddenly glanced at the stone mill at the side. There was no need for a juicer anymore. She just needed to use this stone mill to grind the oranges and filter the juice with cotton gauze to get the pure fruit juice.

The last thing she needed was a mold. She would use the mold to hold the fruit juice. After freezing it, she would be able to get the ice cream.

She could sell a portion of the ice cream to earn some money for this family. This family was too poor.
