Chapter 6: Insufficient Balance
Chapter 6: Insufficient Balance
She pinned her hopes on Letao, but when she tried to buy some medical supplies, a warning popped up.
[Warning! Insufficient balance, please top up immediately!]
Out of money? It turns out it wasn't his own bank card! Song Miqiu was indignant that he hadn't been able to spend his own savings in the end.
But saving lives was the priority. She quickly processed the orders for the items she hadn't received yet, and with the remaining balance, she was able to buy the medicine.
Song Miqiu had only seen methods of healing on television, so she proceeded to disinfect and bandage the man's wounds in a seemingly professional manner. However, the man was in so much pain that he was barely able to move, twisting and turning, and it took a great deal of effort to finish treating all the wounds.
"The rest is up to your own fate." Song Miqiu closed his eyes and prayed for a moment.
Stepping outside, I was greeted by the delicious aroma of instant noodles.
Song Miqiu swallowed hard and walked over. She saw that Tian had cooked instant noodles, but the mother and her two children were holding small bowls of noodle soup, their eyes wide with longing and drooling. Qiu Tianlei was holding a large bowl of noodle soup, while the noodles in Song Miqiu's bowl were emitting an enticing aroma.
"Don't you have anything to eat?" Song Miqiu asked, puzzled.
"Mother, I'll go dig up some wild vegetables tomorrow," Madam Tian said timidly.
“There are still three servings of noodles left, but I thought it was a good thing, so I saved it for my mother first, so that she wouldn’t go hungry later,” Qiu Tianlei explained.
Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu lost her appetite. She handed the flatbread to the three of them, then turned to Qiu Tianlei and asked, "Didn't you borrow some money?"
"I borrowed it from my second uncle. Didn't I spend all that money on buying a father?" Qiu Tianlei blinked and then tentatively asked, "How about... I sell him? Maybe I can get some grain in return."
Song Miqiu was quite indignant: "The person is already half-dead, if they are sold again, they might die!"
"Mother has accepted this father?" Qiu Tianlei couldn't understand. How could his mother, who had been so righteous just now, be persuaded by this pretty boy?
Song Miqiu rolled her eyes, then looked at the two bowls of noodle soup, feeling a mix of emotions.
She needed to figure out a way to make money. She had thought she could use Letao forever, but she still needed a balance, and she didn't know how to earn more. So she had to be frugal. It would be best if she could exchange it for real money in this world.
"Don't worry, we won't starve. At worst, I'll go up the mountain to hunt some wild game. The mountains here are quite fertile, with plenty of wild game," Qiu Tianlei said patting his chest in a rough manner.
“We can also… dig for wild vegetables,” Qiu Xiaobai said timidly yet with extraordinary determination.
“Yes, Mother-in-law, don’t worry, I can dig for wild vegetables.” Tian nodded.
Song Miqiu was in a state of turmoil. She turned and went inside, saying, "I'm not hungry yet, you guys eat first. But Qiu Tianlei, you can't eat!"
"Why?" Qiu Tianlei was extremely confused, but he had no choice but to obey his mother's orders.
So all I could do was watch the noodles in my two children's bowls and feel envious.
Back in his room, Song Miqiu started fiddling with Letao (a shopping platform), and finally understood the money-making mechanism in the automatic services section. He could earn a balance simply by selling items from this era. It seemed there was still a way to make money, and Song Miqiu breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking around the destitute house, there was really nothing worth selling. She had no choice but to go out and explore the market tomorrow, believing that there's always a way out.
Thinking of this, she finally felt a little hungry, so she bought some eight-treasure porridge to fill her stomach. Afraid that the man on the bed would get cold the next day, she also bought some liquid food and fed it to him with a pacifier. After doing all this, Song Miqiu finally relaxed and fell into a deep sleep.
