A courtyard house, equipped with a fishing system, living in an era.

[Strength: 13] (The maximum value for an average adult is 15.)

[Physical Fitness: 14]

[Agility: 14]

Backpack: 20 slots

Fishing spots: Iron grade: 4, Bronze grade: 1

[Skills]: Basic proficiency in Sichuan cuisine; Basic electrical work; Basic proficiency in hunting.

[Item]: One acre of basic farming space.

……

Xu Pingan actually wanted to use up one more Iron-grade and one more Bronze-grade fishing spot.

So far, he has only used each of the three levels of fishing once.

So, are the items you can get the same at these three different fishing spots, or are they different each time?

For example, if you catch two beginner-level Sichuan cuisine masters in a row, will it automatically be combined into an intermediate-level Sichuan cuisine master?

Xu Pingan has many questions, but he doesn't know the answers to any of them.

I thought about it, and he currently has enough skills and items.

The fruit trees in the space were planted one after another on the day he returned.

Herbs and other plants were also scattered throughout the space.

As for whether it prefers sunlight or shade, Xu Pingan made some simple adjustments.

As for whether it would work, he wasn't sure...

Let's plant it first and deal with any problems that arise later.

Anyway, the seeds aren't expensive, so we can just let them go to waste!

After the three finished their meal, Xu Pingan went for a walk to digest his food.

Xu Fang listlessly went to wash the dishes, while Xu Lian prepared some food to feed the dog.

"Sis, look how good my brother is at fishing, he can even make money from it, why don't you just stop arguing with him!"

Xu Lian tried to persuade his sister with a bitter expression.

"I really can't eat fish with so little oil and salt anymore, not even the big yellow croaker and the little black croaker..."

Seeing her younger sister betray her, Xu Fang felt very wronged.

"Whom am I doing this for? Our parents are gone, and it's just the three of us siblings relying on each other. If you let my eldest brother spend money like water, he can finish a pound of oil in three to five days... In the end, it becomes my fault..."

Xu Fang became increasingly aggrieved as she spoke, and began to wipe away her tears.

Xu Lian is precocious despite her young age, and she can't stand seeing her older sister cry.

"Sis, I support you!"

Although the fish, lacking in oil and salt, wasn't very tasty, nothing was more important than my older sister.

Especially after that confusing dream, Xu Lian regarded her eldest sister as even more important.

No one can bully the eldest sister, not even her own brother...

Xu Fang sighed.

"Fine, fine, you can't fight city hall!"

Xu Pingan has never been particular about the details when it comes to cooking.

They practically scooped all that oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar into the pot with a big ladle.

Xu Fang had never seen how restaurants cooked, but she had seen how villagers ate oily food.

Let alone using such a large ladle to scoop oil into the pot, some people just wipe the pot with an oil cloth and call that adding oil!

The little girl had no idea what was wrong with her older brother.

Judging from the outcome now, the resistance has failed!

"Sis, it would be best if you could understand. Big brother can make money; he can earn several dollars a day from fishing..."

Xu Lian comforted her eldest sister from the side.

"People in town are regularly ordering fish from him..."

"Can selling fish be a sustainable business?"

Hearing her sister's question, Xu Lian wanted to say yes, but she couldn't lie to herself.

In my dream, over the next 20 years, the regulations governing doing business will become increasingly strict.

We can still raise chickens and ducks at home as we please, but in two years, each family will only be able to raise two or three.

Two years later, it seems that everything except the vegetables grown in one's own private plot belongs to the village collective.

Xu Lian sighed softly, inwardly lamenting why she was only 6 years old this year.

If she were a little older, she could have persuaded and encouraged her older siblings to go to the city...

As long as you can settle down in the city, life will be much better for many years to come!

Now, she can only take it one step at a time...

……

"You're both here!"

When Xu Pingan returned from his walk, he found the two sisters still in the kitchen.

"Tsk, why are you crying?"

Xu Pingan was quite helpless.

Although I lived to be around 40 years old in my previous life, I never got married or had any children.

I really can't figure out what these kids are thinking all day long.

"Who's crying? Sand got in their eyes..."

"There's nothing to do in the fields these past few days. I've already filled all the puddles with water. You two stay home and look after the fields; I'm going for a walk up the mountain!"

Upon hearing that Xu Ping'an wanted to go up the mountain for a stroll, the two sisters' attention was immediately diverted.

"Brother, are you going up the mountain? I want to go too!"

Xu Lian's opinion was completely ignored by Xu Ping'an.

A six-year-old child with such short legs, you're going up a mountain? What mountain are you going to?

"Brother, are you taking Big Yellow and Little Black hunting in the North Mountain?"

Xu Pingan nodded, then shook his head.

"I do need to go into the mountains, but I've heard that supplies in the North Mountain are limited, so if I want to hunt, I'll have to go to the West Mountain. I'm planning to go to the West Mountain to take a look."

"West Mountain seems a bit far away..."

"It's alright, we'll just go wherever the road takes us. You two just need to keep an eye on the farm work from home."

Xu Fang quickly washed the bowls.

"Brother, from what you're saying, you're not planning to leave tonight, are you?"

"Who goes into the mountains at night? Everyone gets up early to go in, and then around four or five in the afternoon they have to find a place to spend the night!"

Since getting two pets, Dahuang and Xiaohei, Xu Pingan has expressed his desire to go into the mountains.

My two younger sisters had actually inquired about some basic information about the mountains.

Hearing that Xu Ping'an had decided to take a nap and leave the next morning, the two sisters felt much more at ease.

"Brother, aren't you working too hard? We don't have any food shortages now."

Xu Fang felt that her small heart couldn't hold too much.

As long as one has enough to eat and wear, and a roof over one's head to keep out the rain, life feels wonderful.

So she didn't quite understand her older brother's restless and mischievous personality!

"Alright, alright, I've thought it all out. You two can stay home and rest, just go check on the fields when you have time... Oh, and remember, you both need to eat an egg every day!"

Xu Fang instinctively wanted to refute.

Xu Pingan paused, then reluctantly shut his mouth!

"Also, I inquired when I went to town to sell fish last time. A primary school is about to open in town, and students can start school in early September... I'll take you two to town to register when I come back in a few days."

Although he wanted to get into the city as soon as possible.

However, the limitations of that era meant you couldn't just do whatever you wanted...

But learning can't be neglected, especially since Xu Fang is already 11 years old!

"Really? That's great!"

Xu Fang, who always pretended to be a little adult, felt a sense of joy upon hearing this.

Xu Lian felt like she was dreaming.

No, no, this doesn't feel like a dream at all. That dream was absolutely miserable!

But now she feels like she's living in a honey pot, her life is always sweet.

The current standard for primary school enrollment is seven years old.

However, due to special circumstances in previous years, there were many children who were over the age limit.

Therefore, age standards have been practically meaningless over the years...

Although Xu Fang is already 11 years old, there is no need to worry about her being too old to start school.

I reckon she won't be the oldest in the class after she goes there...

It is said that the new regulations will implement a five-year consistent system for primary schools.

The division between primary and upper primary schools has been eliminated!

Moreover, they enroll students in both spring and autumn semesters, making it very convenient for the two sisters to go to school together!

As for what to do after moving to the city?

Then transfer schools...
