'Fortuitous Encounter'

"I can't, I can't!" Liu Xianniang refused.

"Aunt Mao, look at how skinny Xiaoyu is. She can't go on starving!" Rong Xiang was a little angry that Liu Xianniang would rather go hungry than accept his help.

"Xiaoyu?" Liu Xianniang was stunned.

"I gave myself a new name. I'll tell you later." Mao Xiaoyu explained.

"Thank you, Brother Rong. I will wait for you by this window tomorrow." Mao Xiaoyu did not hesitate. She had already eaten half of his chicken, so it was too late for her to be polite.

As for the 'seven three-quarters' that he mentioned, she really had no knowledge of time in ancient times. She could only deal with it this way for now. Later, she would go to the Space to look for books about time conversion.

Fortunately, he had bought a bunch of random books back then. Otherwise, she would not have anything for her to reference.

Moreover, she did not expect her family to provide them with food, and Mao Xiaoyu did not want to fight for food with them.

Rong Xiang nodded and went to his house at the foot of the mountain.

"Daya, this is not appropriate!" After her daughter closed the window, Liu Xianniang finally opened her mouth.

'Mother, don't call me Daya. From today onwards, I'll change my name. I'll be called Xiaoyu, Mao Xiaoyu," Mao Xiaoyu emphasized.

"How can you change it so casually? Your grandparents won't agree to it," Liu Xianniang said, feeling a bit awkward.

"Mother, look." Mao Xiaoyu took out the beautiful chicken feather.

Without waiting for Liu Xianniang to speak, Mao Xiaoyu continued happily, "This feather is very beautiful. I want to be called Xiaoyu, and I want to be as beautiful as Xiaoyu."

After she finished speaking, she even raised her head arrogantly, looking very proud of herself.

Liu Xianniang sighed and touched her daughter's head, "Okay, Xiaoyu will grow up to be beautiful."

'Daya' was not really a name. She did not like to call her daughter that in the past. Now that it was changed, she would just accept it.

"Mother, I'll tell you a secret!" Seeing that her mother had compromised, Mao Xiaoyu immediately started the next round of deception.

After all, her personality had changed too much, so she had to explain it to her.

"Mother, I was lying to everyone just now. Actually, after I woke up in the mountains, I found myself lying in a hole." Mao Xiaoyu said mysteriously.

"Ah!" Liu Xianniang was shocked. she quickly grabbed her daughter's arm and groped it up and down.

"Are you hurt?"

"Mother, I'm fine. Please continue listening to me!"

Seeing that her mother had quieted down, Mao Xiaoyu began to make up a story.

"When I woke up in the cave, I found a strange stone in my hand. I was about to throw it away, but it gave off a very bright light. Then I heard people talking," Mao Xiaoyu said. Her personality had changed greatly because she had been inspired by the stone and had come into contact with many new things.

While her mother was in a daze, Mao Xiaoyu reached into the bag and took out four books.

"I found these books in the cave. Mother, take a look." Mao Xiaoyu handed the four books to her mother.

She had chosen these four books in advance, and she had already torn off the covers.

One was the list of herbs, which recorded all kinds of herbs and even had pictures of them. This was for her to prepare for picking herbs in the mountains in the future.

The second book was a book that introduced all kinds of exotic animals. This book was amazing. Mao Xiaoyu planned to read it carefully. After all, she did not know much about mushrooms. She was still planning to go to the mountains to pick mushrooms to eat.

The third book was a secret martial arts manual. Mao Xiaoyu planned to 'learn' it slowly so that she would have a source for her martial arts.

The fourth book was the various prescriptions recorded by the Mao family. This book was temporarily useless, but in order to 'possibly' learn medical skills in the future, Mao Xiaoyu took it out in advance and showed it to her mother.

Liu Xianniang was literate. According to her, her maternal family was quite well-off, and Mao Xiaoyu's grandfather was said to be a scholar.

However, when she was 15 years old, her hometown was flooded, and she got lost with her family while she was escaping.

As for her, she was seriously ill and was picked up by Mao Dalang to the Mao family.

Naturally, the two of them developed feelings for each other and got together.

As for her maiden home, Mao Dalang had brought her there once when he was young. However, the people there had changed a long time ago, and they could only return disappointed.

Mao Xiaoyu was most satisfied with the fact that the original owner could read. If she could not even read a single word, it would be hard to cover up her lie.

Liu Xianniang flipped through the four books. "I can't believe there's such a magical place!"

She could not believe that her daughter had a fortuitous encounter.

"Mother, with these books, I can go up the mountain to pick herbs in the future. We won't have to go hungry!" Mao Xiaoyu hugged her mother's arm.

Liu Xianniang felt that she was floating. This day was enough for her to waste her energy. keep the book first. "Let Mother rest."

Mao Xiaoyu nodded. She stuffed the book under the mattress on the inner side of the bed and took out the half biscuit from the cloth bag.

"Mother, you should eat this." Mao Xiaoyu stuffed the biscuit into Liu Xianniang's hands.

"I'm not hungry, you can eat by yourself." Liu Xianniang shook her head. She also felt that her daughter was too thin.

Mao Xiaoyu shook her head, "Brother Rong roasted chicken for me on the mountain. I'm not hungry. Mother, you eat."

How could Mao Xiaoyu eat a biscuit that was hard as a rock?

She had so many delicious things in her Space, but she could not take them out now.

When Liu Xianniang heard that her daughter had eaten someone else's roast chicken, she sighed. "Daya... No, Xiaoyu..."

Seeing her daughter nod in satisfaction, Liu Xianniang continued, "Xiaoyu, what's up with Rong Xiang? "

"Mother, we can't do anything about it now. when we have money in the future, I'll return it to Brother Rong," Mao Xiaoyu said seriously.

She still wanted Rong Xiang to take her into the city, so she did not want to be far away from him in the short term.

As for how to repay Rong Xiang, Mao Xiaoyu had already thought about it. If she could find good things like ginseng or Chinese knotweeds, she would give one to Rong Xiang as a thank-you gift.

In the end, under her daughter's 'coercion', Liu Xianniang ate half of the biscuit with a bowl of hot water.

After that, the mother and daughter lay on the brick bed and did not talk much. Mao Xiaoyu waited until her mother fell asleep before she quietly entered the Space.

Fortunately, the bed was big enough. There was also a table in between them. Otherwise, Mao Xiaoyu would not dare to enter the Space.

Before entering the Space, Mao Xiaoyu placed a watch under the blanket. She wanted to calculate the time ratio between the outside world and the Space.

"No, I have to leave this house as soon as possible. I need an independent bedroom. It's too inconvenient." Mao Xiaoyu mumbled as she stood on the grass in the Space.

Not daring to waste any more time, Mao Xiaoyu transferred all the books to the study room and ran back to the villa.
