“Go buy a kilogram of meat. We’ll make dumplings at home.”
“Okay!” Su Jin Long held the money in his hands and eagerly ran without knowing he had just been ordered.
More people came over to inquire but when they saw the white furniture, they shook their heads and walked away. The sun was about to set, but they were not able to secure any more sales.
Su Mian then went to a nearby traditional medicine shop to buy some herbs. However, because they were too expensive, she left the shop empty handed. In the future when she had the time, it would be better to head up the mountain to pick some commonly seen herbs. After all, many of those commonly seen herbs could be used as medicine, and their effectiveness were not poor. It was just that many villagers do not know that. As for the other rarely seen herbs, she would make full use of her tower space. That way, she would be able to look after her potential patients.
On the way back home, Su Jiang Hai sat at the front without speaking.
After only selling one piece of furniture, Su Mian knew he was feeling depressed, but they had to take things step by step, “Father, don’t worry. The villagers don’t know much about Western furniture. It’s better if we take our time.” Su Mian comforted her father. She thought about how all those people who came to inquire were older people. If they were able to encounter more young people, selling their goods should be a lot easier.
“I know. I’m thinking that we should make a few more designs when we return.” Su Jiang Hai continued to drive the cart. He could not help but fault himself for not being as calm as his daughter.
When they made it home, He Qin had already made dinner. Hearing their voices, she immediately came out.
“Is it cold?” He Qin spoke while pulling on Su Mian’s hand. Su Mian wore sheepskin gloves and was not cold at all.
On the other hand, He Qin’s hands were ice cold. Su Mian lowered her head and saw how red and swollen they were. It was frostbite.
The winter temperature was minus 30 degrees Celsius. It was easy to get frostbite without protection. It might not feel like much now, but once the temperature became warmer, it would become painful and itchy.
He Qin was busy in and out of the house. Her hands would frequently be moist with water. The sheepskin at home was only enough for three people, her husband and her two children.
As she usually did not leave the house, it was no need for her.
Su Mian did not say anything but felt sorry. How she wished that there was some frostbite cream.
Just by the thought, golden words suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.
You only need 1 kindness point to exchange for a frostbite cream. Do you want to exchange?
This manner it was written made Su Mian want to vomit blood.
Can you not read everything that’s on my mind?
Su Mian only had to think about it and she could exchange for a frostbite cream. Then, she suddenly thought to ask for a pair of medical-use scissors!
Just as expected another string of words appeared again.
1 kindness point, do you want to exchange? But you will also get this as a reward from a future mission, it isn’t worth getting it now!
Su Mian was surprised and happy. To think that the tower space would even help her consider things.
Su Mian did not hesitate and exchanged for a frostbite cream.
From a total of 7 kindness points, after exchanging, she now had 6 points left. However, if it was for He Qin, the spending was worth it.
“Mother, I’m fine. This is for you.” Su Mian gave the remaining money and the frostbite cream that randomly appeared from her pocket.
“This is?”
“Frostbite cream. I bought it for you. Your hands are so cold. Quickly apply it after going back in. It should be fine after a few days.
“Xiao Mian…” He Qin looked at the frostbite cream and did not know what to say. Xiao Mian was growing up to be more understanding. Not to mention helping the family earn money, she was now very considerate.
“There is also this!” Su Jin Long carried a kilogram of meat and swayed it in front of He Qin. With glittering eyes, he said, “Mother, I want to eat dumplings!”
“I’ll wrap some tomorrow.” He Qin sniffled. Her children were becoming more sensible. Her days were becoming more hopeful.
After eating, Su Mian entered the tower space once again. The seeds she planted yesterday had already sprouted. It had a thin stalk with grain-sized leaves, appearing extremely cute.
Su Mian watered them before starting on her second mission, to find the small white rabbit.
Su Mian raised her head. The mountain was quite large and the mountain sides could not be seen easily. Finding one small rabbit was not going to be easy at all.
Her eyesight and hearing ability were several times better compared to ordinary people. Two hours passed and she finally found traces of a small rabbit.
Su Mian ran to the point where she had to gasp for air. The small rabbit appeared to be playing hide and seek with her. It bounced and ran a dozen meters ahead of her. Whenever Su Mian ran a bit slower, it would stop and eat the wild vegetation by the side. Then, when Su Mian ran faster, it would make long jumps and maintain a distance from her.
Su Mian felt helpless. She thought to herself that once she catches the rabbit, she would make a stew out of it.
Another two hours passed. Su Mian followed the little rabbit and almost explored the entire mountain. Moreover, the more Su Mian ran, the more energized she felt as if there was wind under her feet.
