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

Song Zhili suddenly remembered that Xia Momo had bought her a lot of aged Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng in the storage room. Could she take them to the pharmacy and exchange them for some silver?

Having thought of this, she no longer worried about the money. Instead, she looked at them and said, "Let's talk about the fishpond later. I'm thinking of hiring some aunties to come to my house to make fish balls. Do you have any objections? You can raise any objections you have."

When everyone heard Song Zhili's words, they all shook their heads. They had also heard Song Zidong say that Manager Xu and the others would need fifty catties of fish balls tomorrow, and there was simply not enough time for them to make them.

Now that Song Zhili wants to ask other aunties to come and help, they are of course happy to do so, so that they can finish making the fish balls sooner and also go to the fields to help with the work.

Otherwise, there would only be Song Hai and Song Dashan working in the field every day, which would be very hard.

Seeing that no one had any objections, Song Zhili asked them if they had any suitable candidates. She was currently looking to invite three people, but only had one in mind. She didn't know who would be suitable for the other two.

"Da Ya, how about we invite your Aunt Zhang over?"

Song Zhili was visibly taken aback when she heard Hu Cuicui's words; she couldn't recall who Aunt Zhang was for a moment.

“Da Ya, Aunt Zhang is Song Fang’s mother.”

Seeing the puzzled look on Song Zhili's face, Song Ziyuan gave her a timely reminder.

Upon hearing Song Ziyuan's reminder, Song Zhili suddenly realized, "Mother, that's a good idea. Why don't you go and talk to Aunt Zhang tomorrow? There are only two of us right now, so who would be suitable to ask for the last person?"

Song Zhili didn't know the people in this village as well as Hu Cuicui, so she decided to entrust the task of selecting people to her.

After a long while, Hu Cuicui still couldn't think of anyone else to invite.

However, at that moment, Song Zili's gaze fell on Ji Qingqing. Seeing that she seemed to want to say something but hesitated, Song Zili asked her.

"Sister-in-law, are you looking to recommend someone? If you have a suitable candidate, feel free to mention it. If she is suitable, then we can invite her."

When Ji Qingqing heard Song Zhili suddenly ask her a question, she was a little flustered. She glanced at Song Zidong unconsciously before asking in a low voice.

"I was just thinking about my cousin. She also married into our village. I saw her a few days ago and she wasn't doing very well. I was wondering if she could come and help out?"

Everyone was taken aback when they heard Ji Qingqing's words. Ji Qingqing had never mentioned her cousin to them before, and they were also unaware that her cousin had married into their Peach Blossom Village.

"Qingqing, it's a good thing that your cousin married into the family, but I've never heard you mention it before?"

Hearing Song Zidong ask this question, Ji Qingqing hesitated even more. She clasped her hands together and rubbed them back and forth. It wasn't that she deliberately didn't want to talk about this, but she just didn't know how to say it.

Seeing Ji Qingqing so hesitant, everyone wondered what was going on.

Seeing her like this, Hu Cuicui guessed that she must have some unspeakable troubles. Then she thought for a while and couldn't think of anyone who had married a wife from outside in recent years.

Suddenly, Hu Cuicui realized something. Her eyes widened, and she looked at Ji Qingqing with disbelief. "Qingqing, your cousin isn't that the young wife that Wu the Cripple from the west end of the village bought a few years ago, is she?"

Hearing Hu Cuicui's exclamation, Ji Qingqing could only nod helplessly.

"Oh dear, you silly child, your cousin married into the family, why didn't you tell us sooner? You know what kind of person that Wu the Cripple is, how could your cousin marry him?"

Ji Qingqing could only sigh helplessly and tell them about her cousin.

Her cousin's name is Sun Taohua. Her family has always favored boys over girls, and they would beat or scold Sun Taohua. She also has an older brother named Sun Jiande.

Sun Jiande was spoiled by his parents since he was a child, and a few years ago he lost a lot of money at a gambling den.

Later, the gambling den people came to his door to collect their debts. He didn't have enough money to pay them back, so they threatened to cut off his hand to pay off the debts. In the end, when his parents found out, they had no choice but to sell Sun Taohua to pay off his gambling debts.

Actually, Ji Qingqing didn't know about this. Some time ago, she accidentally saw Sun Taohua trying to hang herself in the back mountain.

She rushed over and rescued the person. Ji Qingqing was very surprised to learn that the person she rescued was Sun Taohua. She later learned about these things from Sun Taohua.

What surprised Ji Qingqing even more was that Sun Taohua was covered in bruises. Wu the Cripple had a very bad temper, and he would beat Sun Taohua to vent his anger whenever he was unhappy.

Later, Ji Qingqing held Sun Taohua in her arms, and with Ji Qingqing's comfort, Sun Taohua stopped trying to kill herself.

From then on, Sun Taohua and Ji Qingqing would occasionally meet up on the back mountain to have a heart-to-heart talk.

But later, when her family started making fish balls, they got busy and she didn't have time to go to the back mountain to find Sun Taohua anymore. That day, she only said a few words to her and then they parted ways.

Now that Ji Qingqing heard that Song Zhili wanted to recruit people to help make fish balls, the first person she thought of was Sun Taohua. She wanted Sun Taohua to earn some copper coins with them, so that Wu the Cripple would beat her less.

After listening to Ji Qingqing's story, Song Zhili also felt that Sun Taohua was a person with a tragic fate, so she nodded and said, "Okay, then you should go and tell your cousin tomorrow to come over."

"Okay, then I'll go talk to her tomorrow."

Hearing that Song Zhili had agreed, Ji Qingqing was overjoyed. If it weren't for the darkness, she would have eagerly told Sun Taohua the good news.

Now that the three people had been chosen, Song Zhili had nothing more to say. She just wanted to quickly return to her space to find the ginseng and lingzhi, and go to town tomorrow to see how much silver she could exchange for them.

"Alright, everyone should go to bed early tonight. I'll head back to my room now."

After saying this, Song Zhili returned to her room, closed the door, and slipped into the space. She went straight to the storage room and searched around. Finally, she found the ginseng and lingzhi in a gift box at the very bottom of a pile of things.

Song Zhili opened the gift box and examined it carefully. She discovered that the ginseng and lingzhi were both about fifty years old.

Buying these two things must have been very expensive. It must have been tough on Xia Momo. Luckily, she had already given Xia Momo her bank card password.

I'm already dead in that world, so there's no point in keeping that money.

She placed the ginseng and lingzhi in a prominent position, planning to find an opportunity to take them out from the back mountain the next day.

Then I can find an excuse to go to town and exchange some money, and then I can start preparing for the fishpond.
