Chapter 91
"Block."
System: Blame my talkative voice program.
With the beautiful moonlight and the handsome man by her side, Qi Huan had no desire to banter with the system. She just wanted to spend quality time with Shu.
"You've also had a busy day, wouldn't it tire you to continue using your lightness skill? I have a bicycle. It's already dark out, and there are no pedestrians on the road. I can take you home on my bike!"
After saying this, she briefly woke up the system, took out the bicycle from the space, and again said, "Block."
System: ...In the end, I was the one who was wronged.
Seeing her take out the bicycle, Li Shuchen grabbed the handle on the other side, his eyebrows slightly raised, his eyes full of interest: "I'll take you."
"Can you?"
The bicycle, also known as the foreign car, was introduced during the Qing Dynasty. Although the timelines are different, according to the memory of the original host, there should be no bicycles in Li Nation at this time. Therefore, Li Shuchen couldn't possibly have learned how to ride one.
Last time, she didn't have time to teach him.
While she was pondering, Li Shuchen, who was questioned, looked slightly upset and said with a hint of annoyance: "Qi Huan, remember, there's nothing I can't do."
"Oh." Seeing him bristling, Qi Huan obediently nodded: "Shu is the best."
Upon hearing this, Li Shuchen hooked the corner of his lips, sat on the bicycle according to the memory of her riding, and when he felt the back seat slightly sinking, he started pedaling.
Bathed in the moonlight, facing the evening breeze, he was taking the girl he loved home.
This was the first time Qi Huan had ever sat on the back seat of a bicycle in all her lives.
She stretched out her hands and wrapped them around Li Shuchen's strong, slender waist. Seeing his back stiffen slightly, Qi Huan mischievously touched his abdomen.
Unlike her soft little belly, the feeling in her hands was a bit hard, indicating the presence of abs.
At this moment, Li Shuchen let go of the handle with one hand, grabbed her mischievous little hand, and said in a low, muffled voice, "Stop messing around."
"Okay."
Quickly withdrawing her hand, Qi Huan decided to hold onto the edge of the bike seat to steady herself.
After the hand that was causing chaos around his waist was removed, Li Shuchen felt somewhat disappointed.
So, he said again: "Qi Huan, the road is rough, hold onto me."
"No need, I can hold onto the bike seat just as well."
The dirt road home was bumpy and uneven, causing Qi Huan's butt to hurt a bit. She mentally noted: When the chance comes, I must tell Chen the county magistrate, 'If you want to get rich, build the roads first,' and get him to improve the roads in Mo County.
After arriving home, Qi Huan, who had been busy all day, didn't feel like cooking and chose the simplest meal - instant noodles.
While cooking, she unblocked the system.
"Host, thankfully your instant noodles are the classic braised beef flavor."
"Why do you say that?"
Rubbing her slightly bloated belly, Qi Huan took out four digestive tablets from the space and swallowed them. Then she started opening the fourth package.
Inside was a set of cosplay costumes, including: a white wig, a set of 'wrinkled old-age makeup' including wrinkle glue and oil paint, and a witch costume.
After shaking them out, Qi Huan felt she didn't need them for now and stored them in the space.
Moving on, the fifth package was a high-legged round mirror, neither large nor small, just right.
The first thing she did after getting the mirror was, of course, to admire her beautiful face.
Although she had taken instant photos and seen her appearance, the photo paper was too small and the quality wasn't very clear due to the model of the camera. Naturally, it wasn't as clear as looking in a mirror.
Holding up the mirror, Qi Huan scrutinized the person in the mirror.
Her skin was very fair, without freckles or pimples... it seemed the face masks she applied were not wasted.
Next, under her delicate willow-leaf eyebrows, were a pair of expressive almond eyes, a small and straight nose, and soft pink lips. At the moment, her lips were slightly upturned, revealing two shallow dimples.
She looked like her past self, just as smart and pretty.
Qi Huan was extremely satisfied.
Brimming with anticipation, she opened her sixth express delivery. After slicing open the outer cowhide bag, she immediately spotted the item inside.
It was transparent plastic sheeting.
Pulling off the cowhide bag used for packaging, a white card dropped out. On one side was the shop owner's self-narrated story of his grueling entrepreneurial journey and auspicious words asking for five-star reviews.
The other side printed the usage of the plastic sheeting, or more accurately, the usage of plastic film for greenhouses.
After reading it carefully, Qi Huan was filled with joy.
The climate in Mo County was harsh, with few varieties of vegetables in winter. If she had a greenhouse, she would no longer need to purchase ingredients from her special space.
This plastic sheeting was of a peculiar material. Taking it out would certainly arouse suspicion.
But that was fine, she would blame it on her father.
The people of Mo County deeply admired those who came from the capital city and proved themselves capable. After all, although they were exiles, they were once central figures of the dynasty. People naturally admired the strong and believed that a skinny camel was still bigger than a horse.
So, blaming it on her father was currently the most reasonable solution.
Moreover, her father had passed away, there was no one to verify her claim. She would say it was left by her father, and no one could question its authenticity.
When she first arrived, she introduced many modern items, mainly because newcomers were fearless, thinking, 'if worst comes to worst, I'll just die and reincarnate. I don't want to live a stifled and repressed life.'
But now, she had Shu, a dear friend like Yue Ming, family like Yan Qinghe, and adorable younger siblings like Wushi and Wuqing.
She had bonds now, and naturally, she became more cautious in her actions.
For now, she would attribute strange items to her father, claiming he was a man who hid his talents, possessing many unknown skills.
In the future, when she would prosper, she would find some confidants, pretend to be worldly, tell everyone that the earth was actually a sphere. There were people beyond the mountains and seas, and these strange items all originated from them.
With her decision made, Qi Huan was determined to start greenhouse farming!
Touching the plastic sheeting, she shifted her gaze to the final package, a long and large cardboard box.
