Yu Jiao rested well for three days, the swelling in her ankle went down, and she was able to move as normal again.

Early in the morning of the fourth day, she put on her bamboo backpack, said hello to Uncle Four and Aunt Zhen, and went to look at the calf and the big buffalo, which were indeed very beautiful. Then she turned around and went back to the path she usually took to go up the mountain.

The system is shocked: [Didn’t you say you wanted to relax for a whole week? ]

[Going up the mountain when there is no mission is the same as going to work when the boss is not around, how can it not be considered relaxing? 】

[You speak as if you actually worked there.]

Yu Jiao stopped talking. The little girl lowered her head and used the extra straight twig in her hand to scare away the snakes. She climbed the mountain with a grunt, squatting down from time to time to cover the mushrooms she liked with leaves, secretly rubbing them to mark them so that she could remember to pick them when she went down the mountain.

Looks normal.

However, the system feels that if it were a human, it would probably give itself a big slap in the face for bringing up things that are not relevant.

The kid is only eighteen years old, just the right age to go to college.

But the college entrance examination was messed up by the plot control, and the Luo family couldn't afford to find her a university on the road. Even after binding it, she had to crawl in the mountains every day. How could she go to school? What about work?

The system is silent too.

It is normal that there is no human sound in the deep mountains. Yu Jiao walked through the halfway point of the mountain that had recovered from the impact of the mudslide and looked up at the height.

Did she seem to see someone here that night?

But it might also be an illusion caused by fear. After all, in the dream, it was a wolf that saved the seven-year-old girl.

Now there were only tree branches and leaves high up that were so large that they could not see the sky, and a bunch of blue flowers. Yu Jiao stared at them for a while, turned around, brushed past the carnivorous beast, and continued strolling.

After a day of quiet running in the mountains, the backpack was only lightly filled with water, and the shadow left by the stormy night had completely dissipated.

Yu Jiao felt that she was okay again!

As long as people are alive, there is nothing that cannot be overcome. Moreover, she encountered such miraculous things one after another, such as being rescued by the system and then by the big buffalo. She is really a lucky little cannon fodder.

Little did they know that the system, which had been quiet for the entire day, had crashed due to guilt.

The system thought about it again and again, searched through the memory, and reluctantly decided to give the kid a big gift.

【Would you like to go and see your little yard? 】

[Didn't they say that the limited-time mission rewards surprise upgrades and that the small courtyard will take another week to complete? ]

【Would you like to see the semi-finished product? 】

Of course... yes. Yu Jiao went down the mountain more than twice as fast as she went up. She was about to run in the direction of the system navigation, but she was caught off guard and almost bumped into someone, an acquaintance.

Yu Jiao slammed on the brakes, lowered her head and stood at attention: "Yes, it's you?" It was the young stall owner I met at the morning market!

[System!!! Did he come to me to ask for the duck seal? ]

【No way? 】

The system was also made to feel a little guilty by Yu Jiao: [Don’t you humans believe in buying and leaving? How could he be so ungentlemanly! ]

"It's me! It's me."

The young stall owner was holding a bag in his hand, and stuffed it into Yu Jiao's backpack very smoothly: "Sister, I forgot to introduce myself last time. My name is Yu Nian, and I am the second son of the eldest son of the fourth uncle of your father's third uncle's son-in-law. You have to call me second brother, remember?"

"I heard that you were sick. I just came back from work and brought you some red dates to replenish your blood."

Yu Jiao nodded: "I remember, thank you, second brother."

Although she didn't know what the relationship was between fever and blood supplementation, facing the surging enthusiasm of her second brother, Yu Jiao was too embarrassed to even refuse - especially when she actually guessed that her second brother was here to ask her to return the little duck seal.

Yu Jiao: [I really deserve to die. ]

System: [I really deserve to die...]

So when Yu Nian asked about Yu Jiao's health in a very familiar manner, and curiously asked her where she was going, and when he heard her say that she was going to the small courtyard, he naturally suggested that he also wanted to go and see it, Yu Jiao had no way of saying no.

completely.

The brother and sister, who were meeting for the second time and were separated by a huge blood relationship, walked towards the west of Shoushan Village. Yu Nian naturally began to tell stories to Yu Jiao, from "I fell from this tree when I was a child" to "The fourth uncle's tricycle was modified", and the topic jumped a lot.

He even tried to please the little girl by praising the straight twig in Yu Jiao's hand.

"Oh, it's not easy for peach tree branches to grow so straight, it's really great."

Yu Jiao looked at him with a more friendly gaze. Of course it was good. This was a straight little branch that everyone liked. It could also be used as a walking stick, a hiking stick, or a dog-beating stick...

Second brother has good vision!

Because she had someone to accompany her, Yu Jiao felt that the system's confusing navigation was not so difficult to endure. However, Yu Nian slowed down his pace as he saw that he was getting further and further off the track.

Yu Nian hesitated: "The small courtyard you mentioned, are you sure it's here...?"

Yu Jiao: “Yes…”

【What is he doubting! 】

Before Yu Jiao could answer, the system in her mind felt insulted: [This is a paradise I selected based on its comprehensive cost-effectiveness. It has the most suitable water source, fertility, transportation, and scenery! ]

[Keep your voice down...]

Yu Jiao calmed her buzzing mind and said, "Yes, it's over here."

Yu Nian: "But..."

Yu Nian was about to say something but stopped himself. However, he remembered that when he was a child, there was a rumor that this place was haunted, so no one usually came here...
