The Amusing Adventures of a Directionally Challenged Dad and Daughter

Chapter 1

In Yizhou County, there is a village called Qingfang Village, with sixty households.

In the village, the Zhao, Jiang, and Yang families, three surnames, account for sixty percent of the population, they are the natives of the village.

The remaining forty percent belong to other surnames, with the Gu family being the largest family after the three main surnames.

The old Gu family is from Grandpa Gu's generation, who fled here during a time of great chaos, Grandpa Gu had three brothers.

Each of the three brothers had no less than five sons and three daughters.

The eldest in the Gu family had the most children, he married twice and had ten sons and five daughters.

The Gu family relied on their children to outnumber the population by far.

Even the people from the three main surnames think twice before trying to bully them.

In a thatched house at the foot of the village, a man was crying uncontrollably holding his daughter who had already passed away.

Someone advised him to bury the child.

"Old Gu Six, your daughter is already dead, if you don't bury her in this weather, the body will stink by tomorrow."

"Yes, Old Six, let the child rest in peace, don't make things more difficult."

The man held his eight-year-old daughter, suddenly went crazy, "Get out, all of you get out, my daughter is not dead, whoever dares to say my daughter is dead, I will make their family arrange the funeral."

The people who were just now advising him angrily said, "You are just a fool who doesn't know any better, Old Gu Six."

"Go, go, go, you ignorant fool, let him hold his dead daughter and let it stink."

"Disgusting."

The crowd dispersed, leaving only the father and daughter in the once crowded room.

Gu Chang'an woke up in a daze amidst the crying, Old Gu Six was too engrossed in his crying to notice that his daughter was pretending to be dead.

Gu Chang'an's first feeling upon waking up was, so hungry, so hungry.

She pushed the man holding her, "Hey, stop crying."

Feeling dizzy from hunger, weak, her voice faint like a mosquito, but Old Gu Six still heard her.

Bright light shone from his lifeless eyes, "Daughter? Daughter? Oh, you really woke up."

Gu Chang'an was utterly confused, what did this man call her?

Daughter?

Her father passed away when she was five, she was raised by her grandparents, is this man out of his mind?

Suddenly, a piece of text appeared in Gu Chang'an's mind.

Name: Gu Qingming

Gender: Male

Age: 26

Hometown: Qingfang Village, Yizhou County, Ye Dynasty

Background: Ancient times

The sixth son of the Gu family, born to Lady Li, the first wife of the eldest Gu, who passed away during childbirth.

Old Gu Six was not loved by his father, without a mother, resented by his siblings.

Lady Li passed away when giving birth to Old Gu Six, he became the family's scapegoat.

Gu Chang'an: Isn't this the beginning of some novel's female lead?

Ancient times? Ye Dynasty? What's going on?

Oh~ Am I in a time-traveling trend?

Stay calm, continue reading the explanation.

Since he could walk, Old Gu Six had to support himself by begging.

At the age of five, when the eldest Gu married his second wife, Old Gu Six was kicked out of the house.

Luckily, he was adopted by an old hunter, and a wandering Taoist gave him the name Qing Ming.

(Prefer to grow wings and fly into the Qing Ming—From Tang Dynasty's "Hu Wu Ren Xing" by Nie Yi Zhong)

At the age of seventeen, he married Lady Zhang, and at eighteen, they had a daughter named Chang'an, symbolizing a lifetime of peace and happiness.

The original owner is now eight years old.

Yesterday, while picking wild fruits on the mountain, she fell from a tree and died.

Lady Zhang drowned in the river five years ago, and the old hunter passed away last year.

Gu Chang'an: What a tragic fate, wiped out completely.

The drought has lasted for three and a half years, and it is now the fifth month, with five months of drought already. Extreme cold is expected in October, with temperatures predicted to drop to minus fifty degrees.

Prepare for half a year of cold wave and be ready with evacuation supplies.

Mission prompt: The Gu family father and daughter are passersby, complete the mission by living to a ripe old age.

Reward: A lifetime of merit.

Gu Chang'an:... She's not sure if she can earn a lifetime of merit.

From one deadly world of survival to another difficult world of survival.

What a big change.

She was also given a father.

Her age has shrunk, increasing the difficulty of survival.

From Now On, She Must Call a Man Just a Few Years Older Than Her 'Dad'?

Mysterious Creature: Otherwise? Call him Old Six?

Gu Chang'an:... Well, that's not impossible, can you give me some hope?

Like the female lead in novels, give her a space, no matter how big or small, and some resources, no matter how much.

"Ding! Space binding in progress."

"Ding! Binding successful."

Gu Chang'an:??? Is there really a space? Hey, did you hear that?

Mysterious Creature: Sending you a space as assistance, good luck!

Gu Chang'an:??? You're amazing!

Oh well, she won't dwell on it. Since she has to live until the original father's natural death, that unclear creature shouldn't harm her, right?

Gu Chang'an woke up, then fell back asleep.

Old Gu Six cautiously checked her breathing, feeling her warm breath on his fingers.

He smiled in relief, feeling at ease.

Luckily, he didn't believe what others said, or else his daughter would really be gone.

There was new rice in the house, which he took to the kitchen. The muddy water that had settled for two days now had over twenty centimeters of clear water on top, perfect for making porridge.

Two of the village's three wells had dried up, and the water in the remaining well was very murky. The river had also dried up.

The crops in the fields had withered, and the drought was getting more severe. It was estimated that every household's remaining food would only last for two months.

There was less and less edible food in the mountains, but there was still no sign of the court sending relief.

Old Gu Six was worried that even with money, he wouldn't be able to buy food.

Over the years, he had saved a lot of silver from hunting, but he hadn't saved any food.

Would he be afraid of not being able to buy food with silver?

He wanted to give himself a slap; it was okay if he went hungry, but his daughter couldn't.

When Gu Chang'an woke up again, the room was empty, and she couldn't wait to check her collected supplies in the space.

"Oh my, isn't this my mansion?"

"Thank you so much!"

Thinking of the drought in this world, Gu Chang'an immediately went to check if her supplies were still there.

Two double-door refrigerators, fully stocked.

Good, good.

Various meats and seafood in the cold storage were also there.

Satisfied!

The warehouse is a bit short on grains and oils.

There are ten bags of twenty catties of rice, and twenty bags of fifty catties of rice.

Twenty vacuum-packed bags of Jinlongyu rice, each weighing five catties.

There is a total of only 1300 catties of rice.

Two hundred catties of flour in ten catty bags, twenty bags in total.

Thirty catties of sweet potatoes, some of which need to be saved as seeds.

Twenty catties of sweet potato flour.

Fifty boxes of Lao Tan pickled cabbage noodles, each box containing ten barrels.

With all these supplies, two people should be able to eat for two years, but the drought will last for three and a half years, so more needs to be bought.

With this empty villa, do they have the money to buy food?

No, it's the drought!

The first thing to worry about is whether there is water in this villa. The thirty barrels of water she collected won't last long.

Gu Chang'an immediately rushed to the kitchen, turned on the tap, and water gushed out.

Thankfully, there is water.

Then she ran to the master bedroom on the second floor and turned on the hot water in the bathroom.

She breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, there is hot water, and the bathing issue is also resolved.

Sensing someone approaching, Gu Chang'an exited from the space.

She doesn't have the memories of the original host, so she doesn't know what kind of person Gu Chang'an was. She has no intention of maintaining a false persona.

No matter how well she acts, the truth will come out eventually. It's better not to hide from the beginning.

If Old Gu Six accepts her, then she will be his daughter. If he doesn't accept her?

She'll have to figure something out.

But even if she doesn't want to maintain a facade, she still needs to come up with a reason to deceive him.

What if he believes it? Right?

It's best to maintain a father-daughter relationship for convenience.
