In the evening, the orange-red glow was spilled over the world like rouge, making everything look exceptionally gorgeous and splendid.
The beautiful scenery outside the car window inadvertently caught Qi Huan's eyes, putting her in a very good mood.
She gripped the steering wheel tightly and drove carefully. Although she had traveled long distances many times, she was still very cautious.
On the wide and flat highway, there were few vehicles at the moment. Just as she was about to switch to the fast lane, the rear of the car was suddenly and violently struck, and then she lost consciousness.
When she regained consciousness again, there was a thatched roof over her head and mud floor under her body. Looking around, the room was completely empty.
Then, a strange memory rushed into her mind.
The owner of the memory was also called Qi Huan. She was the only daughter of the Qi Yue couple in Mo County.
Located in the cold north, Mo County lacked clothing and food. Not many natives lived here, most were families of convicted officials exiled here.
The Qi family was also convicted of an offense, but Qi's father was well versed in acupuncture and massage and was quite respected here for his exquisite medical skills. Not only did he not have to work with other exiles, but he was also allocated a separate thatched house.
Unfortunately, half a month ago, when the Qi couple went to treat the Magistrate, they encountered a hunting tiger and lost their lives. Even the corpses were torn apart.
People who had received kindness from the Qi couple helped Qi Huan bury her parents. Giving her a few mouthfuls of soup every day was the limit since everyone lived very poorly in Mo County.
Originally, the little girl could have lived by herself relying on her tenacious vitality. Until one night, several shabbily dressed masked men robbed her of all her clothes and beddings, and even the last half of the hard steamed bun in her bowl was not spared.
It was early September, and heavy snow was flying in Mo County.
The real Qi Huan froze to death on a desperate and cold night, but gave the crossed over Qi Huan a new life.
Recalling this, a tear slipped from the corner of her eye and slowly trickled into her dry and tangled messy hair.
The broken little window was blown open by the fierce wind, and a cold air rushed in with gusts of snow, the accumulated snow outside was shrouded in darkness, but still shone a little bright.
She scratched her messy hair somewhat helplessly. She was useless in this icy and snowy environment and did not know how to make a living in the future.
She couldn't have just crossed over to experience freezing and starving to death again, right?
At this moment, an icy system prompt sounded in her mind, "Ding~"
Qi Huan, who had read three hundred novels in her previous life, instantly brightened her eyes.
It's here! It's here! It came with a ding!
"Hello host. Welcome to bind the "Do Good Deeds Every Day" system. This system will serve you sincerely."
Qi Huan tightened her thin clothes and said happily: "System, hello. Your opportunity to do good deeds every day has come. Can you give the child a down jacket to keep warm?"
"Sorry, this is not within the scope of services of this system."
She was a little disappointed, but still unwilling to give up, "Then treat me to a hot pot?"
"...Sorry, this is not within the scope of services of this system."
"So what exactly is your scope of service?"
This time, the system began to talk nonstop:
"In view of the host's good deeds in her previous life, which is consistent with the attribute of doing good every day with this system, the feedback mechanism was triggered when the host died, transferring the host's soul into the deceased Qi Huan's body, giving the host another chance to be human."
"The original owner had just frozen and starved to death, so this body is still relatively fresh. Don't be too grateful to this system, host!"
"In addition, considering that this body is too weak, in order to avoid the host freezing or starving to death at the very beginning, this system has restored 50% of its functions. The host can rest assured to use it."
"The host only needs to continue doing good deeds, and you can accumulate points. All the express delivery items the host has delivered in her previous life have been imported into the system. The host can exchange them with points."
"One point equals one yuan of purchasing power. Express delivery drops randomly."
Qi Huan understood.
In her previous life, she was abandoned next to a trash can shortly after she was born, and was later sent to an orphanage by a kind-hearted person.
The dean loved her and her playmates were lovely and friendly. She grew up happily.
She did poorly on the college entrance exam and did not fill out her application properly, so she was not admitted to her ideal university.
Plus the dean was sick and needed a lot of medical expenses for medicines that were not covered by insurance, so she got a truck driver's license and started working at an express delivery company.
She didn't spend much, and every month she would take out part of her salary to donate to the dean.
She didn't expect that such an ordinary kind deed would give her a new way to live.
Soon, the system explained, "Because your dean paid out of her own pocket to subsidize countless orphans, she is a person with great merit. So by helping her, you are also doing good deeds."
"Why didn't you just directly bind the dean? She has more merit than me."
"......Karma, inexplicable." There are countless good people, but this system happens to draw you."
"You had 66,000 points in your previous life. After rebirth, it has been reset to zero. Considering the extremely difficult rebirth environment, the system compensates you with 500 points as the initial value."
"Does the host want to exchange?"
"Exchange, exchange, use up all 500 points!"
Qi Huan chose to use up all her points to exchange as many supplies as possible, so that she could survive and not have her points reset to zero...
Swish swish -
Five express deliveries fell in front of her.
"Unless the host agrees, others cannot see the process of express delivery dropping. The host can feel free to open the express delivery!"
Although the icy wind was still piercing, her heart felt warm.
The broken wooden window was blown and squeaked. The biting cold wind was still howling. She grabbed the express delivery and ran to a wind-sheltered corner.
She didn't know where the kerosene lamp in the room was. In the dark night, she could only open the express delivery relying on the light reflected by the white snow outside the window.
With a mood more nervous than opening a blind box, she started to open the first express delivery bag. It was a thick cotton quilt. She hurriedly shook it open and wrapped it around herself.
The second express was packaged in a cardboard box. When opened, it contained a box of snail noodles.
Then there was a set of warm clothes, several pairs of socks, and a pair of fleece Martin boots.
"Wow! My luck is so good, they are all very necessary items!" She couldn't help exclaiming.
"Host, don't be narcissistic. It was this system that took pity on you and secretly identified and screened out the following items for you." The system refuted flatly.
"......Oh, thank you."
During the conversation, Qi Huan had already torn open the quilt, hurriedly put on the warm clothes, then put on the socks and boots in sequence.
After getting dressed, she closed the window, hugged the quilt and groped for the thick straw mat on the wall corner, lay on the quilt, pinched the corner, rolled over, wrapped herself into a caterpillar, and fell asleep slowly.
The next day, she didn't wake up until noon.
She slowly poked her head out of the quilt, recalling the original owner's experience of being robbed, and hurriedly hid the still warm quilt under the straw, took off the underwear and put it on outside the warm clothes.
She scratched some mud from the wall, mixed it with snow outside and made it into a thin mud paste which she smeared on her boots. Then she tore up some grass segments and pasted them on top, layer by layer, until the original appearance of the boots could no longer be seen.
After finishing all this, she was already starving. She took out the snail noodles she had taken out yesterday and headed straight for the kitchen.
There was no water in the low and cramped kitchen. It made sense, with such cold weather, even if there was water stored, it would quickly freeze into ice.
With no other choice, Qi Huan went outside to pick a relatively clean place in the accumulated snow, dug it up, put it in the pot, and clumsily started a fire following the original owner's memory to boil it.
As the soup boiled, the familiar smell filled the entire kitchen, and her sweet smile was hidden in the rising steam.
Finally she could eat a hot and full meal!
She took out a ceramic bowl, scooped up the snail noodles, squatted by the stove and ate with great relish.
With every mouthful of noodles and every sip of broth, her stomach and soul were instantly deeply satisfied.
Qi Huan's eyes crinkled with joy as she swiftly finished one mouthful after another. Soon the bowl was empty.
Fortunately she had added plenty of snow fungus, so she ladled out another bowlful of hot broth, just raising it to her lips, when her eyes met a pair of shocked eyes.
"Even if I was late bringing dinner today, you can't be eating shit!"
