When she woke up from her sleep, the weather was still cold. She immediately got up since there was no such thing as lying in bed in the summer. She rubbed her eyes, went out to wash, then picked up her cup. Suddenly, a slightly familiar voice rang in her ear: "Jiaojiao!"

Su Jiaojiao was surprised to see Zhao Sisi waving from the courtyard next door.

Although Zhao Sisi was arrogant, she treated people warmly, and even though she had only met Su Jiaojiao once and had just been with her for several hours, she was still very enthusiastic when they met again. It turned out that her character was very carefree and even a little unscrupulous.

Su Jiaojiao didn't hate such a person nor could she say that she liked her. She wouldn't make friends on her own initiative but she would respond to others' enthusiasm. She immediately put up a smile: "You are here."

Zhao SiSi was near the courtyard wall, eating coarse grains that were difficult to swallow: "Yes, the captain said we could move, and since we suffered a fright yesterday, we don't need to go to work. Aunt Wang is so kind that she left me a meal."

The two fenced yards were not high. The aisle which was more than one person wide was also very close, just like in a yard.

"Then you rested?" Su Jiao Jiao treated her familiarly, and subconsciously said jokingly, just like friends do, "I'm not even surprised."

Zhao Sisi pouted unhappily, "No! Who said it's comfortable to wake up naturally after sleeping?"

Su Jiaojiao smiled, "Yes, you are right."

Today, the weather was still sunny and the road had already cleared up from the rain. The breakfast was simple; Song Qinghan volunteered to make egg noodles. He added some vegetables that Sun Fang dropped off in the yard this morning.

It was delicious but they didn't have enough eggs, so they thought about raising a hen to lay eggs.

She was thinking about it, but her mouth didn't listen to her. Zhao Sisi, who was eating at the courtyard wall, was very envious. Looking down at the food in her bowl, she felt that she was eating pig food, and looked at her with some saliva: "Jiaojiao, I want to eat eggs, too. Can I exchange cloth tickets with you?"

Su Jiaojiao shook her head regretfully: "There are not many eggs in my house. I will change with you once I raise a chicken."

Zhao Sisi nodded: "Okay!"

With this expectation given by Su Jiaojiao, Zhao Sisi thought that the coarse grains in the bowl were delicious.

At this moment, the long-dead system finally released a task with excitement: [Ding, task 10, as the head of the family, you must have a job, please choose your occupation and earn the first pot of gold. Reward: two hens that only lay double yellow eggs–these can accelerate bone repair!]

The system thought that it would forever be stuck at task 9. The matchmaker system was very cautious about posting tasks now, otherwise it was afraid that the host wouldn't complete it because she was too lazy to do the task again.

It was also at this time that the system went to the system-family-forum to learn for a while, and finally learned how to give a task that the host could not bear to give up.
