The sky collapsed, and in the blink of an eye, I found myself transported to Nanluoguxiang.

Li Kaixin walked around outside the courtyard and saw that it was already completely dark.

So, I raised my wrist and looked at my watch in the moonlight. I had been out for more than half an hour and felt that it was about time.

After looking around to make sure no one was there, he had a thought and began to take out the goods one by one from the secret space.

First, there were fifteen feet of floral fabric and twenty-five feet of gray fabric.

Next came two deer legs weighing about 30 pounds in total, two packs of Daqianmen cigarettes, two bottles of Moutai, and two bottles of Fenjiu liquor.

Then there's a can of milk powder and two pounds of White Rabbit milk candy.

Finally, there were the hazel mushrooms and daylilies, weighing over ten kilograms, that Li Kaixin had forgotten about, tucked away in the corner.

Li Kaixin packed all of these into the sacks he had brought with him, lifted them up, and found they weighed about a hundred pounds.

Then, he took a deep breath, hoisted the sack onto his shoulder, and walked towards his own courtyard house.

Before I even reached the gate of the courtyard, I saw my father, Li Mingde, already waiting there.

It turned out that when Li Mingde saw his son carrying a large bag out the door, he guessed that Li Kaixin would definitely bring back a lot of things, so he specially waited for him at the door.

Sure enough, not long after, Li Kaixin was seen carrying a heavy sack.

"Dad, why are you out here?" Li Kaixin asked, somewhat surprised.

Father Li Mingde quickly stepped forward and offered his hand.

His tone was concerned: "Seeing you carrying such a big bag, how could I not come out and help?"

And so, the father and son, one carrying the child and the other supporting him, walked into the yard.

Just entered the front yard.

Aunt Zhao, who was collecting clothes in the front yard, saw it.

Looking surprised, he asked, "Mingde's family, what's this big bag? It looks heavy, do you need a hand?"

With a forced smile on his face, Father Li Mingde quickly waved his hand and said, "No need, no need, it's just some local produce sent by relatives in the countryside, no need for you to trouble yourself."

Li Kaixin quickly chimed in, "Yeah! Yeah!"

Aunt Zhao looked at the bulging sack with suspicion, but seeing that the father and son insisted, she did not force herself to help.

Watching Li Kaixin and the other person walk away, she murmured, "At this time of year, who would send so many things to their relatives?"

Upon reaching the backyard and entering the main house, both father and son breathed a sigh of relief.

Inside the main room, Qin Xiuli, the mother, and her younger siblings were waiting. When they saw them come in, they quickly came forward to take the sacks.

Although Qin Xiuli, the mother, was somewhat prepared, she still couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice when she saw the large sack: "My God, how can there be so much?"

Li Kaixin deliberately opened the bag and showed off, saying, "Mom, look at this fabric, it's enough to make a set of clothes for more than ten people."

Seeing this, the father, Li Mingde, patted his son on the back of the head in an annoyed tone and said:

"Look at you, thinking you're so capable."

"Tell me, what supplies would be suitable to bring for Grandpa and Grandma tomorrow?"

Without hesitation, Li Kaixin said, "I specially prepared the cigarettes, alcohol, milk powder, and sugar to show my respect to Grandpa and Grandma. As for the rest, you and Mom can decide what to do."

The parents exchanged a glance, said nothing more, and began to take inventory of the items.

At that moment, Li Kai, the younger brother, spotted the White Rabbit milk candy and his eyes lit up.

So he stepped forward and said in a pretentious manner, "Dad, Mom, let me help you tidy up."

Qin Xiuli, the mother, could easily see through her second son's thoughts. She was both amused and annoyed, so she grabbed a handful of milk candies and stuffed them into his hands.

"Go away, go away, stay somewhere else, don't get in the way."

"Also, remember to share some with your younger sister."

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, younger brother Li Kai happily ran to his sister's side and started sharing the candy.

......

After washing up, Li Kaixin had just lay down on the bed when he entered the secret realm.

Carefully counting the remaining supplies:

The male deer originally weighed nearly 100 jin (50 kg), but ate some in Changbai Mountain, consumed two jin (1 kg) at the state-run restaurant at noon today, and took out more than 30 jin (15 kg) in the evening. Now it only weighs more than 40 jin (20 kg) left.

Although some of the tiger meat was given away, there were still about 300 jin (150 kg) of tiger meat including the bones.

The amount of walnuts and pine nuts remained almost unchanged, still totaling over a thousand catties.

As for tobacco and alcohol, which can be bought with money, they were piled up separately and ignored.

Then, Li Kaixin went to the other side of the secret realm to check on the newly planted grains, which had already sprouted new shoots.

After thoroughly exploring the entire secret realm, he exited with satisfaction and fell into a deep sleep.

Li Kaixin simply forgot his promise to his master to review the notes in the next couple of days.

The next day, before dawn, Li Kaixin was woken up by his parents.

While I was washing up in the yard, perhaps because it was the weekend, none of the neighbors had gotten up yet.

This is probably why the parents specifically chose this time to set off.

I've had breakfast.

Li Kaixin's parents took out two large bags that they had prepared the night before, each weighing more than 30 kilograms. Li Kaixin and his father each carried one.

Then, the family of five quietly left the courtyard house and headed towards the station.

After a long and tiring journey, Li Kaixin arrived at Lijia Village once again.

Unlike last time when I came alone, this time I came with my family.

To Li Kaixin's surprise, people in this era are indeed physically strong. Even her younger sister, Li Xiaoxiao, a little girl, did not seem tired after walking for two hours.

There were no militiamen on duty at the village entrance today.

As soon as they entered the village, they met Li Cheng, the son of the village chief's third grandfather.

Li Cheng was a few years older than Li Kaixin's father. Upon seeing Li Mingde's family, he went up to greet them, saying, "Oh, who's back? Bringing so many good things!"

Li Mingde carried a bag in one hand, and a watch inadvertently peeked out from his other wrist: "Brother Cheng, we can't come back empty-handed to see Grandpa, can we?"

As for the watch's origin, that goes without saying.

On the way from Hongxing Commune to Lijia Village, my father noticed that Li Kaixin kept checking his watch. Then, thinking that he could show off in the village, he asked Li Kaixin for a job.

Li Cheng stared at the watch, then at the two bags, and immediately lost interest in talking.

He said dryly, "Then you go see the old man first, I have some things to take care of."

After saying that, he walked away as if fleeing.

After that, they met their second and third uncles one after another. Their father, Li Mingde, greeted them warmly and arranged to have lunch at the old man's house.

Along the way, Li Mingde's father's demeanor drew the attention of the villagers, who looked at him with envy.

Qin Xiuli, the mother, finally couldn't stand it anymore and scolded in a low voice, "Can't you tone it down a bit? Look how smug you are."

Father Li Mingde chuckled, and just as he was about to retort, he had already reached the gate of his grandparents' house.

The younger brother, Li Kai, was the first to jump up and down, shouting into the yard, "Grandpa and Grandma! We're back!"

Hearing the noise, the two elderly people came out of the house one after the other.

Upon seeing the large family standing at the door, the grandparents' faces immediately lit up with smiles, and the wrinkles on their faces smoothed out.

Upon seeing this, Li Kaixin and her younger sister Li Xiaoxiao called out in unison, "Grandpa! Grandma!"

At the same time, the father and mother stepped forward and said gently, "Father, Mother, we're back."
