Chapter 77 The Hunter's Daughter in a Fictional World (Part 2)
After her father passed away, the original owner went to the government office to report the matter and then obtained a hunter's certificate. Because the original owner was naturally strong and had been going into the mountains with her father for so many years, the family's standard of living did not decline.
Although her family worried every time she went deep into the mountains, that was something she'd been taught since childhood, and there was nothing they could do about it. As for her marriage, by the time she finished her mourning period for her parents, she'd be 18, and it would be too late to arrange a marriage then. Besides, everyone knew her father had planned to find her a son-in-law, and given her martial arts skills, finding a husband would likely be difficult. She also had a younger brother; if she married him, she'd have to take care of him until he got married, even if her maternal grandfather's family said they'd raise him. But the original owner refused; he was the only male member of her Liu family, and she had to take care of him herself.
The original owner is in trouble because yesterday in the deep mountains, he encountered a bear. When he was running away, the bear slapped him on the back, and he coughed up blood. He endured the pain just to save his life. When he got home, he didn't tell his family because he was afraid they would worry. He rubbed some medicinal wine on himself that night and went to sleep. He never woke up.
Liu Yuxi guessed that the original owner had suffered internal bleeding from the slap. She used her mental power to scan the original owner's internal organs and found that there were still some bleeding points in the spleen. Fortunately, every time she transmigrated, her "strong as an ox" attribute would automatically repair the original owner's body. It seemed that the bleeding was about to stop. She still took some hemostatic medicine and anti-inflammatory medicine from her space and took them.
The original owner's last obsession was her younger brother; she hoped he could grow up safely, get married, and have many children and grandchildren. This shouldn't be a big problem for Liu Yuxi. After carefully helping Liu Yu'an urinate, Liu Yuxi also fell asleep; her body still needed to recover!
When Liu Yuxi woke up the next day, she first checked her internal organs and was relieved to see that they were all intact. Since her younger brother was still asleep, she began to tidy up the house. Her mother had exhausted herself giving birth to her brother and was semi-conscious when she had a massive hemorrhage. She only told her to raise her brother and where to store the house deed before she passed away.
Although there were 200 taels of silver notes with the house deed, and the original owner also had more than ten taels of silver on her, since she started hunting and selling them after her father passed away, she never searched the house. Her mind was focused on hunting and selling money to support her younger brother. Because she was heartbroken by her parents' passing, she locked her parents' room, only going in to clean it on the anniversary of their death. At other times, it was locked.
The only thing she took out was the small box containing the house deed. Her maternal grandfather had asked his eldest uncle to help his younger brother register his household and transfer the house to his brother's name, since his brother was now the head of the household—yes, if there were male members in the family, the male member was naturally the head of the household. After it was all done, the original owner put the house deed and banknotes back into the small box, then dug a hole under her bed in the west room and hid them. She only dug them out when she had extra money from hunting and needed to save it.
Liu Yuxi first used her mental power to store the money box in her spatial storage. When she took it out and opened it, she saw that the original owner was quite good at saving money. There were already 280 taels in the box. She then found a small box in her spatial storage and put all the silver ingots into it. The original box only contained the house deeds and silver notes. She then put the small box into the small box, attached a note indicating that it belonged to this world, and then put it back into her spatial storage.
While scanning the entire room and yard with her mental power, Liu Yuxi discovered that her mental power in this world could scan things within 50 meters, and she couldn't help but marvel at how quickly her mental power was growing.
Scanning the room where the original owner's parents lived, they found a small box in the wooden chest where clothes were kept. Inside were more than 30 taels of silver, five strings of copper coins, and several pieces of jewelry wrapped in a handkerchief: a gold tassel, a silver hairpin, and two gold rings. These were probably bought by the original owner's father for the original owner's mother.
She put the small box into the wooden crate in her spatial storage and began scanning the entire yard again. The yard itself was normal, but when she scanned the crops in the backyard, Liu Yuxi realized that this might be another novel world. Why? Because this world had chili peppers, tomatoes, corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes. If this planet still had the same crop distribution as Earth, then it was undoubtedly a parallel world from a novel. No wonder the restrictions on women were so light! Thank you, transmigrated senior!
Having sorted out the current situation at home, Liu Yuxi decided to continue living his life as usual until the mourning period ended. He would teach his younger brother martial arts when he was a little older, and send him to a private school when he was old enough to see where his own strengths lay. As for whether his younger brother could take the imperial examination and become an official in the future, that would have to be up to him. After all, Liu Yuxi was a political idiot and couldn't really help him much!
She went to the kitchen and cooked some millet porridge, then made a few steamed buns according to her own taste, along with some side dishes prepared by her grandmother. She also boiled two eggs, and when the little one woke up, she stirred the yolks into the millet porridge and fed him. Since it was summer, she put a little bib on him. She carried him to the backyard to pick some seasonal vegetables, then took the little one and a basket to her grandmother's house.
She greeted her aunts, handed the little boy over to her grandmother, and told him to play with Wang Xin from her third uncle's family. She told her grandmother that she was going to take a walk in the nearby mountains and wouldn't be back for lunch. Her grandmother, as usual, told her to be careful. She went home, changed her clothes, and went up the mountain with her bow and arrows.
Although she had a general understanding of the species distribution on the mountain from the original owner's memories, she still needed to walk around herself to get a more intuitive understanding. Moreover, the original owner didn't recognize many medicinal herbs, but she discovered from the original owner's memories that the mountain was rich in medicinal herbs, which she could collect and sell for money in the future, and she could also bring her maternal grandmother's family along.
Liu Yuxi traversed the mountains, scanning the area from all angles with his mental energy. Hunting wasn't his main objective today, so he moved quickly. Following the original owner's memories, he circled the entire outer perimeter. Once familiar with the area, he hunted a few pheasants and rabbits and stored them in his spatial dimension. Liu Yuxi had practiced shooting, and with the original owner's archery skills, he quickly achieved perfect accuracy. He found a secluded spot and entered his spatial dimension. After lunch, he practiced the original owner's martial arts in the open space. Then he left the spatial dimension to descend the mountain, leaving the pheasants and rabbits behind. As he walked, he used his mental energy to collect dry branches into the dimension, intending to store them in the woodshed at home later—he'd need them anyway. He also carried a bundle of firewood on his back.
When she got home, she stacked the firewood in the woodshed, changed her clothes, and carried the pheasants and rabbits in a basket to her maternal grandmother's house. Her grandmother didn't stand on ceremony with her and had her aunts cook dinner for them. After dinner, Liu Yuxi took the cubs and a few rabbit skins home. Her uncles didn't know how to process the rabbit skins, so she had to take them home herself to tan.
