Siheyuan, I want to lie down but I become a tool

Zhang Xingwang lay in bed and couldn't fall asleep. Today was too exciting. He had traveled through time inexplicably, and it was a difficult period.

There is not even a system. Add to that this big family, it is a complete hell. How will I live in the future?

With all sorts of things in my mind, I fell asleep in a daze.

I woke up naturally from a good sleep, and was staring at the roof in front of me when I heard a voice:

"Brother, you woke up-"

The fourth sister came over with the bowl and said carefully:

"Brother is eating. Mom has gone out to work. Eldest sister and second sister are also out. My younger sister and I are at home. If you have anything to say, tell me and my younger sister."

Seeing Zhang Xingwang took the bowl, the fourth sister quickly said,

Zhang Xingwang looked at the corn paste in the bowl and his two sisters staring at him eagerly. How could he eat it? He asked:

"Have you eaten? Where are my sisters?"

The fourth sister was probably frightened by the sudden answer, and was a little overwhelmed. She stumbled and said:

"The eldest sister went to the streets to find odd jobs. The second sister, um, the second sister should be picking wild vegetables."

"Oh".

"Have you two eaten breakfast?"

"We have already had breakfast. Brother, you are still sleeping, so mom asked us to wait until you wake up and bring it to you."

It seemed that the fourth sister had gradually adapted to Zhang Xingwang's questioning. It seemed that the original owner's brain had been burned out a long time ago, and she probably hadn't spoken normally for some time.

This is also good in case I reveal my true identity by talking too much. Just as I stood up and prepared to get out of bed, I heard a "ding" sound in my mind, and an electronic synthesized sound appeared.

"Congratulations to the host for completing the first day of automatic sign-in. You are rewarded with two kilograms of potatoes and 0.1 cubic meters of portable space." Note: Living things in the space can adjust the time flow rate to a maximum of five times, while dead things are in a static state.

Zhang Xingwang felt elevated upon hearing this, and then he laughed out loud. Brother Tong, who came late, still has the top-notch sign-in and space. Sure enough, everything in the novel is true, and it is not deceiving me.

Wait, something seems to be wrong. After thinking carefully, two pounds of potatoes and 0.1 cubic meters of space, what can I do with this?

I must have opened it the wrong way. The system guy next door gives tons and tons of it. If the space is less than 100 acres and there is no farm or something, it’s embarrassing to say hello to others.

Is this the beggar version? Or is the system taking my kickbacks?

The fourth sister next to her saw her brother suddenly freeze up as if struck by lightning, then started laughing and crying, muttering something about kickbacks, a bunch of words that Brother Tong couldn't understand. Then he whispered to the youngest sister next to him:

"I think our brother's brain is still not well. He might be suffering from hysteria. I heard from the aunt next door that someone in her neighbor's relative's family is like this too and he even eats feces. We two have to keep an eye on our brother."

As he was speaking, he suddenly heard a loud shout.

"I-de-f-ck!"

The little girl was startled, then nodded seriously, patted her chest and muttered, "I have to watch Guoguo and make sure he doesn't eat poop."

The two little girls waited for a while and saw that their brother had calmed down. Then the fourth sister stepped forward and said softly to Zhang Xingwang:

"Brother, are you okay? We will take good care of you. Just be good and don't run around, okay?"

As he said this, he glared in the direction of the public toilet.

Zhang Xingwang's excitement had passed by now, and he slowly calmed down. Looking at the two skinny big-headed kids, he felt their worry about him and inexplicably felt a little sad.

He coaxed the two sisters out of the room and studied the cheat code. The space was convenient to open by just thinking about it, but Brother Tong was too stingy. Not only did he not give them 0.1 cubic meters, he didn't even give them a piece of land.

I tried to put the bowl in, but it was still floating. There is no hope of farming now. Isn't this ruining the tradition of the descendants of Yan and Huang?

I called the system for a long time but it didn't respond. It seems that this brother only cares about killing and not burying. There is no room for negotiation. I can see that the three potatoes in the prize are still lying quietly in the space.

Well, it doesn’t matter if it’s a little less. At least I can have a meal. As I thought about it, my stomach started to growl.

The two little girls were called in. When they saw the potatoes in Zhang Xingwang's hand, the fourth sister asked in surprise:

"Brother, where are the potatoes?"

"I picked it up on the way out for a walk yesterday. Why are you asking so many questions? Fourth sister, you can peel it and cook it, and then make some corn paste or something, and we'll have lunch when the family comes back."

Zhang Xingwang recalled that children these days become responsible early. Now his eldest sister is 21, his second sister is 20, his fourth sister is 13, and his youngest sister is just over 4 years old. In future generations, they should be at school age and full of innocence, but the fact is that his fourth sister can already take care of the family's food, drink and housework.

In addition, the original owner was a sickly child and the only child, so how could she go to the kitchen to cook? As a result, now Zhang Xingwang has great cooking skills but can only let his fourth sister cook. Otherwise, if she suddenly knows how to do everything, there will be no way to explain it.

Unexpectedly, the fourth sister just hummed, picked up the potatoes and left without asking anything, without paying any attention to Zhang Xingwang.

I vaguely saw the fourth sister whispering something to the youngest sister as they walked.

Zhang Xingwang had no idea how outrageous his fourth sister was.

"My brother's condition is sometimes better and sometimes worse, but at least he knew to pick up food and bring it home. But now he is confused again."

After a pause, he said to his younger sister with a lot on his mind.

"Our family is poor. Mom and sister don't come back for lunch, and we don't do any heavy work, so how can we have lunch? It's corn porridge, which can only be eaten by brother. We can just drink porridge. We can't eat thick food. Forget it, boiling a potato should be enough for your brother. I'll give you the remaining soup."

The younger sister listened to what her elder sister said, not knowing whether she understood it or not, but she nodded in approval, indicating that she would definitely support her elder brother.

Then the two little girls went out to cook, so of course they could not even think about peeling the skin. They were afraid that if they washed it too hard, the skin would fall off, and eating it was so precious, so how could they bear to peel it?

Zhang Xingwang was thinking about how to make a fortune with his space, so he couldn't just lie down. He put on his loose-fitting thousand-layer soles and opened the door to go out.

"Where are you going, Guoguo?"

The sharp-eyed little sister saw her brother leave the door, and quickly ran over with her short legs and asked.

"Brother, go out for a walk. It's too boring to stay at home."

"Then I want to go with Guoguo."

Zhang Xingwang saw this and could only take the little girl out. There was no watch at this time, and the sun was about nine o'clock. There were not many people in the yard, and the men had all gone to work.

The weather in early September was very hot. In the shade, a few middle-aged women were picking vegetables and chatting about family matters. When they saw Zhang Xingwang, they didn't even say hello or say anything, but just lowered their heads and continued picking vegetables.

Looking at several familiar yet unfamiliar people, two of them must be the second aunt and Jia Zhangshi. Zhang Xingwang also understood that their family was in financial difficulty, and he didn't talk to them because he was afraid that they would ask for help if he came too close.

Every family is in trouble now, which is understandable. Anyway, it's better this way, no one will worry about me when I live a good life in the future, since we are not familiar with each other anyway.

I walked out of the yard with my little sister and looked at the alley where people were still coming and going. I couldn't help but sigh, this is the capital city, it is always crowded.

I walked slowly to the street and looked at the people passing by. At that time, everyone was dressed simply, except for white shirts, and only black and gray were left. Yanjing in the late 50s was completely different from what I imagined.

After looking at it for a long time and thinking about it, I still couldn't figure out how to use the space. The space is so small that I can only store things within 0.1 meters. I can't be a thief, and even if I get money or supplies, I dare not touch them.

In this day and age, you have to hide your food, not to mention being on guard against enemy agents. Once someone reports it, you can't even tell where it came from. If you're not careful, you'll be in trouble.
