Lin Shuyao was on cloud nine.
No—cloud nine was too low.

She spun once in place, arms stretched out, laughter bubbling in her throat. The weakness and pain she felt in the cottage all seemed to have vanished like it never existed.
"I'm a walking library!" she whispered to herself, trying not to yell in case the books demanded silence. "I. Have. A. Library."

Enjoy :)"
Her heart skipped. She didn't waste a second and rushed in the direction the paper pointed to.

On one side, small cloth bags held a handful of seeds each — labeled clearly: strawberry, cranberries, cacao, corn, and more. It wasn't a lot, but it was more than enough. She could grow more once she planted them.
Further down, rows of jars and wooden burrows were stacked with dried medicinal herbs. Every container was labeled, and the air smelled faintly sweet and earthy. There was even
