A renowned ancient physician transmigrates into the body of an abandoned woman, only to be sold off

Upon hearing that Granny Li had brought Song Zhili a gift—a Gu worm—He Miaomiao was so frightened that she immediately stood up from her chair and took a few steps back.

Looking at Song Zhili in horror, she said, "Ah...Ah Li, you know I'm most afraid of bugs. When you open it later, you'd better stay away from me."

Song Zhili watched He Miaomiao's actions with amusement. She knew He Miaomiao was afraid of insects, so she turned to thank Granny Li.

"Thank you, Grandma. I will start studying with you in your yard from tomorrow."

"Alright, alright, then it's settled." Granny Li agreed with a smile, but seeing that He Miaomiao was so afraid of insects and kept a distance from them, she said again.

“Miss Song, since Miss Miaomiao is so afraid of insects, you can open it when you go back to your room later. It is currently sleeping. When you get back, give it a few drops of blood and feed it for three days. After that, it will recognize you as its master.”

Song Zhili nodded. Seeing Granny Li stand up, she subconsciously put the box into her spatial storage, then went forward to help Granny Li walk towards the door.

Upon reaching the door, Granny Li waved to Song Zhili, "Alright, you can go back now. No need to see me off. I'm still healthy enough to walk back without any problem."

After saying that, Granny Li walked towards her home without looking back.

Song Zhili stood at the door watching Granny Li leave. Looking at Granny Li's brisk steps from behind, if she didn't know that Granny Li was almost eighty years old this year, she would have thought that Granny Li was still very young.

Only after Granny Li was out of sight did Song Zhili turn and walk back into the house. When He Miaomiao saw Song Zhili return, she looked at her hand and, not seeing the box containing the insects, she boldly stepped forward.

"Ah Li, that's great! You can finally learn Gu magic from Granny Li as you wish. By the way, when you go to learn Gu magic from Granny Li, will you be in contact with insects every day?"

He Miaomiao felt uncomfortable at the thought of that scene. She rubbed her arms and felt goosebumps rise on her skin.

"I guess so. I'm not entirely sure right now. We'll see after I learn more. Don't worry, I would never use insects to scare you."

After saying this with a smile, Song Zhili walked towards the kitchen. When she arrived at the kitchen, she saw Amei ladling out a bowl of millet porridge and placing it on a tray, about to take it out.

Turning her head, she saw Song Zhili standing at the door and asked happily, "How is Miss Song? Did Granny Li decide to teach you Gu magic this time?"

Song Zhili nodded, stepped forward and took the tray from her hands, "Is this breakfast for us? I can carry it myself."

Everyone else got up quite early in the morning, but she and He Chengjing had been making a ruckus in the space for so long that they got up a little late and didn't have breakfast.

Seeing Amei bring out the breakfast, she knew it was prepared for herself and He Chengjing.

"Ah, yes, I noticed you and Young Master He weren't awake this morning, so I kept breakfast warm in the pot. I'm just about to bring it over to you now."

"It's alright, I can serve myself. By the way, Granny Li has promised to teach me Gu magic starting tomorrow. You can come with me tomorrow."

Song Zhili remembered that the village chief had taken her and Amei to Granny Li's house before, wanting her to teach them. Now that Granny Li had agreed to teach her, one more person shouldn't be a big deal.

"Really? That's wonderful! Miss Song, you're truly capable."

Amei was genuinely happy for Song Zhili. Actually, she herself wasn't very interested in the Gu technique, but her father had always wanted her to learn it, so she decided to go and learn it.

The two didn't talk much in the kitchen. Song Zhili turned around and took breakfast to her room, where she and He Chengjing ate while talking about what had just happened.

Seeing Song Zhili getting more and more excited as she spoke, her face beaming with joy, he smiled too. As long as she was happy, that was all that mattered.

Halfway through the meal, He Chengjing suddenly remembered something, his face darkened, and his expression became much more serious.

"When you go to learn it tomorrow, ask Granny Li if learning the Gu technique will affect your fertility?"

He didn't know much about Gu magic before, but when he thought about how Song Zhili would have to keep company with snakes, insects, rats and ants every day, even though he wasn't afraid of these things, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

He had heard that some insects were even highly poisonous, and he was afraid that they would affect Song Zhili's health.

He had also heard from the village chief that Granny Li was almost eighty years old and that her husband had died more than ten years ago.

Since she had never been able to have a child, it was hard for He Chengjing not to suspect that Granny Li's inability to conceive was due to her poor health after learning the Gu poison technique.

When Song Zhili heard He Chengjing's words, she realized that she had only wanted to learn the Gu technique and hadn't considered this aspect before. Now that He Chengjing had brought it up, she was afraid that it would turn out this way.

So he nodded seriously, "When I go to Granny Li's place tomorrow, I'll ask her. If it might harm my body, I won't learn it."

Even if she likes it a lot, it's not as important as her health.

Hearing her say that, He Chengjing felt relieved. The two stopped chatting and quietly ate their breakfast.

The village chief and his wife went to work in the fields early in the morning. When they returned with their farm tools, Amei immediately told them the good news.

When the two women heard that Granny Li was willing to teach Song Zhili, they were both delighted. Upon seeing Song Zhili, they came over and congratulated her.

Song Zhili responded to each one with a smile.

The next day arrived in the blink of an eye. Song Zhili got up early and went to the kitchen to make breakfast for the three of them. When she arrived at the kitchen, Amei and the village chief's wife were already busy in the kitchen.

When the two women saw Song Zhili approaching and learned that she was there to make breakfast, they tactfully stepped aside and left the kitchen to her.

Song Zhili planned to make a scallion and egg pancake in the morning, but when she saw that there were no scallions, she turned to ask the village chief's wife.

"Auntie, are there any scallions in the field? Could you please pick a few for me?"

"Yes, yes, yes, I'll go to the vegetable garden and send it to you right now."

After the village chief's wife finished speaking, she walked outside. A few minutes later, she came back with a bunch of scallions, washed them, and placed them on the cutting board.

"Miss Song, what are you planning to do with these scallions? Do you need me to chop them for you?"

Song Zhili was preparing eggs and dough when she said, "Auntie, could you please chop up those scallions for me?"

The village chief's wife nodded, then, remembering that Song Zhili was standing with her back to her and couldn't see her nod, she responded again.

"it is good."

After saying that, she picked up a kitchen knife, walked to the cutting board, and chopped the scallions into scallion flowers.
