A renowned ancient physician transmigrates into the body of an abandoned woman, only to be sold off
Chapter 35 Spatial Rules
Upon hearing this, Zhao couldn't help but burst into tears, her body trembling as she sobbed uncontrollably.
Seeing this, Hu Cuicui had no choice but to help her to the courtyard with Ji Qingqing. Then she quietly went back into the house to get a clean handkerchief and placed it in front of Zhao Shi.
"Aunt Zhao, wipe your tears. What's wrong with you?"
Aunt Zhao is a widow in the village. Her husband passed away two years ago, so she has been raising her three children alone in the village.
Life was tough for them, and they would help her out sometimes, bringing her vegetables or sweet potatoes in the winter to fill her stomach.
Seeing her bring her child to their door and even kneel down before them, Ji Qingqing assumed she had encountered some difficulties.
After thanking Ji Qingqing, Zhao did not accept the handkerchief from her. Instead, she wiped the tears from her face with her own sleeve to calm herself down. Then, she looked apologetically at Hu Cuicui and the others and said solemnly.
“Sister Hu, it was my fault for not disciplining my child properly. Here, I’m returning this to you. Today, Heidan came back and told me that these were copper coins given to him by your daughter, Daya. I asked him where they came from, and he said that he caught a few fish and Daya gave him these five copper coins.”
I thought, "How could that be? That fish is worthless. Why would Daya give him copper coins? I figured he must have stolen those coins from your house with Ziming. I haven't taught my child properly. I truly feel sorry for you."
She then looked sternly at Heidan, "Heidan, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and kneel down to apologize to your aunt and the others."
"Mom, I really didn't, I didn't steal it, sob sob sob..."
Startled by Zhao's shout, Heidan trembled and cried even louder. Song Ziming, who was inside the house, also ran out. Seeing Heidan crying, he quickly went over and gently patted Heidan's back to comfort him.
“Auntie, you really misunderstood Heidan this time. These five copper coins were indeed given to Heidan by my sister. Not only Heidan has them, but Dazhu and Xiaochun also have them.”
Song Ziming had heard the commotion outside while he was inside the house. He was about to go to sleep, but he quickly put on his clothes and came out to explain to Heidan.
"Yes, Aunt Zhao, I did give those copper coins to Heidan. I did ask him to catch fish for me, and I gave him the copper coins. Heidan didn't lie, and he didn't steal anything from our house."
Song Zhili also offered an explanation, saying that she hadn't expected that giving Heidan and the others copper coins would cause such a big misunderstanding.
Upon hearing Song Zhili and Song Ziming's words, Madam Zhao was stunned and didn't know how to respond for a moment. After a long while, she finally managed to utter a sentence.
"Da Ya, the fish in that river aren't worth much, and there are so many of them, why are you spending copper coins to buy them?"
Zhao's first thought was that they felt sorry for the widows and orphans, so they were helping them in this way.
“I have a use for these fish, of course. It’s getting late, Aunt Zhao, you should take Black Egg home soon.”
Hearing this, Zhao didn't dare to ask any more questions. She glanced awkwardly at Song Zhili and the others, then walked up to Heidan.
"Black Egg, I'm sorry, I wronged you. I apologize to you. You won't blame me, will you?"
Black Egg quickly shook his head. "Mother, I don't blame you. Let's go back quickly. My younger brother and sister are still at home."
Even though Heidan has suffered such a great injustice, he is still thinking about the safety of his younger siblings at home, which shows how kind this child is.
"Okay, let's go. Sister Hu, thank you so much, Da Ya."
Zhao thanked Hu Cuicui and Song Zhili once again, then turned and left with Heidan in her hand.
However, not long after they left, Dazhu's parents also arrived with him, and the same scene unfolded.
Song Zhili and Hu Cuicui had no choice but to explain to them again. After confirming that no one else would come, Song Zhili closed the courtyard gate and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mother, sister-in-law, no one else should be coming. Go to sleep now. Ziming, you should go to sleep early too, you have to go to He Chengjing's place tomorrow."
"Okay, I understand, sis."
Song Ziming obediently responded, then turned around and went back to their respective rooms to sleep with Song Zhili.
After closing the door, Song Zhili entered the space. She had been busy these past two days and hadn't been in the space.
As soon as she entered the space, she found her phone, checked the call log, and saw that Xia Momo had not called.
She went up to the second floor again, took out the notebook from before, and looked at it. She found that the words they had written in the notebook were gone, and she suddenly panicked.
Why did the words on it suddenly disappear? Unconvinced, she picked up the pen next to her and wrote a few words in the notebook, only to find that no matter what she wrote, it didn't show up.
She took her phone and ran downstairs again, checking the refrigerator and kitchen cabinets, and found that everything inside was still there.
Then she went to the condiment section and found several new condiments, which put her mind at ease.
This must have been Xia Momo buying her new ones when she saw that her old ones were almost used up.
She gently patted her chest; she was really scared just now. She thought her connection with Xia Momo had been severed.
Just then, her phone rang. When she saw that it was Xia Momo calling, she excitedly answered the call immediately.
"Hey, Ali, it's me. Can you hear me? I can finally get through to your phone again. By the way, did you go to the storage room? I bought you a bunch of stuff, even a stun gun and one of those pinhole cameras. See if you can use them later."
Hearing Xia Momo's concerned words, she couldn't help but chuckle. "Thank you, Momo. I haven't gone to the storage room yet. I'll go take a look now."
As Song Zhili spoke, she headed towards the storage room, but when she opened the door, she was shocked by what she saw!
The entire storage room was crammed with all sorts of things. Song Zhili glanced at it and even found several boxes of contraceptives in the corner. Her lips twitched involuntarily.
"Hehe, Momo, you've really prepared everything."
After Song Zhili finished speaking, she heard Xia Momo's smug voice coming from the other side.
"By the way, Ali, let's use this phone to contact each other from now on. That notebook is no longer useful. I found a note in the study earlier. I opened it and took a look. It contains the rules of this space."
Upon hearing Xia Momo's words, Song Zhili frowned, even more puzzled. "Rules? What rules? Are they the rules of this space? Isn't this our villa? How can there be rules?"
