Chapter 76 The Hunter's Daughter in a Fictional World (Part 1)
When Liu Yuxi opened her eyes, she immediately sensed something was wrong. Yesterday, she went out with some new friends and drank some alcohol. There's a peculiar thing about her when she drinks: you can't tell she's drunk at the table. Only when she gets home or to a place where she feels safe does the alcohol kick in, and then she blacks out the next day. As for what she did after the alcohol took effect, well, she usually doesn't want to know!
But now it seemed she had transmigrated again, and she quickly called out to Xiao 6 in her mind: "6, what did I do when I got home last night?" "Host!" This was the first time Liu Yuxi had heard Xiao 6 reply with an interjection, and she felt that things might be a little beyond her psychological capacity. "6! Tell me, did anyone call the police?"
"No, not at all! Last night, your friend dropped you off at the entrance of your apartment complex, and after your friend's car drove away, you sang folk songs all the way from the entrance to your doorstep!" "And then I went home?" "No, and then you sat in your yard and kept singing. Your parents couldn't pull you away, so they moved a deck chair in the yard for you to sing in!"
Liu Yuxi covered her face immediately. "I knew it! If you black out, you can't ask someone to help you remember. Otherwise, you'll be so embarrassed you could dig an aircraft carrier out of your feet." "And then?" "Then some of the older women in your neighborhood were still awake, and they started singing your song again, each taking a line and singing it with such gusto!" Liu Yuxi was exhausted. This was it! She didn't want to go back to the real world. Unless she moved, she was definitely going to be socially dead, and for the rest of her life no less!
"What time did I get home yesterday? Those aunties were still awake?" "A little after 10:30! Later, you probably got thirsty from singing, so you told those aunties you'd sing again tomorrow, to show them what a 'Chinese Little Song Library' really is, and then you went home to get some water!" "And then?" "Host!" "Could anything be more outrageous?" "I don't know if it's outrageous or not, but I know that after you washed up and lay in bed, you dragged me into a chat, talking about your glorious past before you met the system, about who was right and who was wrong in your failed relationships, and about how you, like men, will always like young, handsome guys until you die!"
Liu Yuxi just wanted to disappear on the spot, but she still needed to figure out how she had transmigrated. So she could only let Xiao Liu continue, "Then the host said, 'Now that I have spiritual power, I don't know what it's for. I'm afraid to scan randomly in the real world, and I don't know which world I'm in. I just muttered to myself. Then you called me and told me to just go with whatever I want, wherever I end up! Let it be!'" "And then I came here?" "Yes!" "Don't you know you can't listen to drunken talk?" "But don't you humans say that people speak the truth when they're drunk?" "That's just drunkards lying!" "But I've already transmigrated!"
Yes, she'd already come this far; she couldn't just die and go back right now, could she? Besides, she absolutely didn't want to go back and face the teasing from the old folks in the neighborhood! "Fine, just transfer the original owner's memories to me!" "Yes, host!"
This is an alternate history, similar to the Tang Dynasty, with an open atmosphere and less constraint on women. Women can also lead troops into battle, though this is generally the case for noblewomen, as they have their own personal guards and the soldiers they lead are also their personal guards. Women can also discuss state affairs and offer advice, but they cannot attend court or serve as officials. Women can also engage in commerce and can establish female households!
The original owner was a hunter. Her father was a hunter on this Daqing Mountain, and her mother was a girl from Wangjia Village at the foot of the mountain. Because he married her mother, her father built a house at the foot of the mountain, which is the house she is in now.
To keep wild animals away, the courtyard walls were made of stone. The main house consisted of three brick and tile rooms, with two side rooms on each side. The left side room was a kitchen and a woodshed, while the right side room had two other rooms: one for storing grain, furs, and cured meat, and the other for general storage. The toilet was in the northeast corner of the backyard.
Because her father was a hunter, he used to live in the mountains and had no land. When he built the courtyard, he bought more land. The courtyard was very large, with about an acre in each of the front and back yards. This was for her mother to grow vegetables. Her father also transplanted a jujube tree and a peach tree from the mountain on both sides of the entrance to the front yard. A grape trellis was built at the entrance to the kitchen, with a stone table and benches under the trellis.
She also has a one-year-old brother who is sleeping next to her. Hmm? Brother? Because it was dark, Liu Yuxi quickly scanned the bed with her mental power. Sure enough, there was a little baby sleeping next to her. Seeing that the little baby was sleeping soundly, Liu Yuxi continued to sort through the original owner's memories.
The original owner of this body is 14 years old this year, according to the traditional Chinese age reckoning. It was discovered shortly after she was born that she was stronger than other children, and this became more and more obvious as she grew older. So when the original owner was three years old, her father began to teach her some martial arts skills, and when she was seven years old, he began to take her to the deep mountains to hunt.
Hunters earn significantly more than farmers. Apart from paying three taels of tax annually, all other income goes to the individual. Her mother was naturally weak, which is why her maternal grandmother's family married her off to her father. After all, hunters don't lack meat. Her mother had her in the third year after the marriage. Fortunately, her father was a single man, so no one pressured her to marry.
After giving birth to the original owner, her mother never conceived again. Although her father was a little disappointed, because of the original owner's extraordinary talent, he planned to find her a husband if she really didn't have a son in the future.
The winter before last was too cold, and there might not have been enough food in the mountains. Wolves came down from the mountains. Her father locked her and her mother in the house and went out to kill wolves with the villagers. Later, in order to save the villagers, he was bitten by wolves several times. Although he found a doctor afterward, his wounds still became infected and he died.
Her mother was heartbroken and fainted. Fortunately, the doctor was still there. After taking her pulse, he found that she was pregnant again. Perhaps because her mother and father had a good relationship, although her maternal grandmother took care of her throughout her pregnancy, her mother still had a difficult childbirth. Although her younger brother was born later, her mother suffered severe bleeding and died. Her younger brother, Liu Yu'an, was raised at his maternal grandmother's house and was breastfed by his aunt.
Now that her aunt has run out of milk and her younger brother is a week old, she has finally brought him back to take care of him. Usually, when she goes into the mountains to hunt, she leaves her younger brother at her maternal grandmother's house and picks him up after she comes down from the mountains to sell her game.
Her maternal grandfather, Old Man Wang, was 57 years old. He married Wang Yangshi and they had four children. Her maternal uncle, Wang Dashan, was 38 years old. He married Wang Zhaoshi, 37 years old, and they had three sons and one daughter. Their eldest son, Wang Li, was 19 years old and married Wang Lishi, who was currently pregnant. Their second son, Wang Yi, was 16 years old and was seeking a wife. Their third son, Wang Ren, was 13 years old, and their fourth daughter, Wang Juan, was 8 years old.
Her mother was the second child. Her second maternal uncle, Wang Dahai, was 33 years old. He married Wang Qianshi and they had two sons and a daughter. The eldest son, Wang Fu, was 14 years old. The second son, Wang Xue, was 11 years old. The third son, Wang Gui, was 7 years old.
Her third maternal uncle, Wang Dahe, was 30 years old. He was married to Wang Sunshi, and they had three sons: Wang Cheng, 10 years old; Wang Zhi, 6 years old; and Wang Xin, 2 years old. The whole family lived together without separating, as they still adhered to the local custom of "keeping the family together while the parents are alive."
