"Three taels and two mace, seven hundred cash, is that right?"
From the moment she was reborn and awakened, Jiang Mianmian was thinking about how to convince Jiu Niang and the others to believe in her.
The most convincing story is that Jiu Niang only told her herself after she was rescued in her previous life: "That year, Li brought me here when I was three years old and asked for five taels of silver. The eldest aunt didn't want me because I was too young, but it was ten-year-old Jiu Niang who used all her savings to buy me, right?"
At this point, she should not have known about this!
How do you know? Who let it slip?
Seventh Sister was taken aback, her tone tinged with anger.
Jiu Niang, however, knew that this matter had been kept very secret and found it hard to believe. "Did I really tell you this in my dream? No, it was in your dream that I told you this?"
But then I thought, given my personality, if I find out that the Jiang family doesn't treat Mianmian well, I will definitely tell her the truth about Li!
This is something I can do myself!
Jiang Mianmian nodded, "Taking this moment as a starting point, if everything that happened in the dream was real, then what is about to happen will also happen, such as an earthquake!"
In my previous life, the timeline was that light rain would fall two days later, followed by three days of continuous light rain and a minor earthquake in Fengshui County. Then the light rain turned into torrential rain, mudslides, and floods, one after another. Now that the light rain has come earlier, the earthquake will probably also come earlier, and the minor tremor might even turn into a larger one!
Then they need to relocate as soon as possible!
"An earthquake?" Seventh Sister's eyes widened suddenly, already eighty percent convinced. "If it really was a premonition in a dream, then... then what should we do?"
"So I'll trouble Seventh Sister to put this paper up first, and then gather all the ladies in the building together so we can discuss and divide the work!"
Jiang Mianmian handed her the paper that said the business was closed again.
"I'll go right away."
Seeing that Jiu Niang nodded at her, Qi Niang no longer hesitated, took the paper and went out.
After she closed the door from the outside, Jiu Niang asked, "Is there something you haven't made clear? If we were to die tragically in a natural disaster, why would you suddenly want to leave the Jiang family?"
Jiang Mianmian knew that nothing could be hidden from Jiu Niang, and she had no intention of hiding anything from her.
She whispered and recounted her past life in detail. She described how the Jiang family treated her, how they later murdered everyone in the building, and how she ultimately burned the Jiang family to death in revenge.
The more Jiu Niang listened, the more distressed she became, and finally understood why the child had suddenly returned! She dared not imagine how much pain Mianmian must have been in her dream!
However, the next moment, Jiang Mianmian opened her hands and said, "Ninth Sister, that wasn't a dream."
[Item retrieved: One bottle of Spirit Essence Pills from the Spirit Medicine section.]
[Merit -10, remaining merit 180.]
A small porcelain bottle appeared in his previously empty palm. "This is a Spirit Essence Pill, which can repair bodily damage and improve physical condition."
"you you……"
Jiu Niang was stunned. "You met an immortal in your dream? Is this magic?"
Jiang Mianmian: "...More or less. This matter is too bizarre to be exposed. As for the past life, I can only pretend to them that it was a dream."
She carefully explained the system tasks, the resource warehouse, and the rebirth process, and then added, "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime. So I can only tell you about this."
Jiu Niang felt a booming sound in her ears. She dared not believe that it was their past life, but the girl's words made her believe them, not to mention the magical ability to take things out of thin air!
Her Mianmian was afraid of both hardship and pain, yet she suffered so much in her past life, and in the end, she was burned alive in order to avenge them!
"Didn't I tell you to live on? How could you be so foolish! If we die, we die..."
She couldn't continue speaking, and only large strings of tears fell down her cheeks.
Hearing footsteps approaching outside, Jiang Mianmian quickly wiped away her tears: "Don't cry, don't let them notice."
He stuffed another Spirit Essence Pill into her mouth, and took one himself. "I'll find an excuse to make them take their medicine later; it's easy to catch a cold in this weather."
After crying, Jiu Niang felt much better.
Knowing the importance of the medicine, I carefully placed the medicine bottle and pondered how to phrase it more appropriately.
At this moment, Seventh Sister entered with her entourage.
The room wasn't big to begin with, and suddenly more than a dozen women rushed in, filling the air with their fragrance and creating a chaotic scene.
"You little rascal, you've finally decided to come back! I've missed you so much!"
"Sister Mianmian! Hug me!!"
Jiu Niang quickly stood up, "Go, go, go, all of you, move back a bit. Twenty-five, what brings you here too?"
As she spoke, she tried to pull the not-yet-six-year-old Twenty-Five off the bed, saying, "Don't press down on your Mianmian sister!"
"Waaah, I'll be gentle, I want Sister Mianmian!"
Twenty-five, acting coquettishly, gripped the blanket tightly with her little hands and kicked her shoes off with a thud.
After taking the medicine, Jiang Mianmian felt much better and reached out to hug Xiao Nianwu. "It's alright, Ninth Sister. I missed Nianwu too~"
"Mmm~~"
He kissed her deeply on the 25th, then lingered in her arms, refusing to leave.
At its most lively time, Lingxiao Tower housed over twenty young ladies, each named according to a number, with flower names given only after they reached marriageable age. Twenty-five was the last and youngest, hence the name.
Only she, at Jiu Niang's insistence, retained her original name—Mianmian.
After the initial excitement subsided, everyone sat down one by one.
Jiang Mianmian glanced around and exclaimed, "Where are Thirteenth Sister and Seventeenth Sister?"
When she left, there were still fifteen people in Lingxiao Tower. There were eleven when they met again in her previous life. She thought that the other four had been separated from the group during the natural disaster, so how come there are already two missing now?
Jiu Niang said in a low voice, "Thirteen fell ill and didn't make it through, but Seventeen is alright, someone redeemed her from her servitude."
Jiang Mianmian's hand holding Twenty-Five trembled slightly. "Ninth Sister, talk to them first."
After the old lady passed away, the girl she adopted, Jiu Niang, became the person in charge of Lingxiao Tower. It was most appropriate for her to talk about 'predicting dreams'.
Jiu Niang didn't refuse and quickly explained the importance of the dream and the events to everyone before looking at Jiang Mianmian:
"You tell us what we need everyone to do."
Now that we've gotten down to business, Twenty-Five obediently sat up straight and stood guard to one side.
Jiang Mianmian picked up the second sheet of paper. "Besides choosing a site on the mountain, there are several other tasks. Everyone can take on these tasks based on their own network and abilities. Just do your best. However, you must do everything discreetly, and the supplies must be in place by this evening."
One option is to rent a small house to temporarily store the various supplies purchased, which also makes it easier to move them.
Secondly, they purchased rice, flour, cooking oil, and shelf-stable fruits and vegetables to ensure that everyone had enough food when the rainstorm came.
Thirdly, purchase lightweight clay stoves, small pots, bowls, and chopsticks; fourthly, clothing, shoes, socks, and bedding—both are necessities and indispensable.
Fifthly, there are herbal medicines; sixthly, cooked food; and seventhly, various seeds—the more of these, the better.
Finally, pack up everything in the building that you can carry and that is lightweight. If you don't take it, it will get flooded anyway, and it's a shameful waste.
The more they listened, the more nervous they became. "Do we really need to prepare so much stuff?"
"What if, what if we go through all that trouble only to find nothing wrong? Wouldn't all that trouble have been for nothing?"
Twenty-five, who had been looking at her sister with admiration, turned serious upon hearing this. "Sixth Sister is silly. If we don't make a fuss, we'll all die if something happens!"
