From the red building to penetrate the heavens

Chapter 224 Another World 8: Adventure

After having a general direction, Jia She began to focus on finding a suitable system host.

Although after being promoted to the queen, Jia She could see many nobles of the clan and court ladies every month, and some of these women had excellent temperament and conduct, but Jia She had never considered giving the system to them. .

Jia She has always believed that there is no empathy in this world. No matter how much people in power sympathize with the people at the bottom, they still have a condescending mentality and cannot put themselves in the shoes of the people and do things properly for them.

It just so happened that the main tasks set by Jia She after the three systems were all for ordinary people, so these noble ladies and rich ladies were not suitable.

In order to find a suitable system host, Jia She bought a copy of "Physiognomy" to distinguish good and evil from the system. From time to time he would become invisible and drive an interstellar speeder across the country.

In the summer of the second year of Qianlong's reign, Hushan Village, Jiangshui County.

This is the place where Jia She will come back on the fifth day of the month.

As soon as the interstellar speedster stopped at the grain-drying farm, a shrill scream like the sound of a pig being slaughtered came from a distance.

The strange thing is that when the neighboring villagers heard this movement, they ignored it, as if they were used to it and had no curiosity.

With his mental strength drawn out and his attention following the sound, it turned out to be Jia She's destination today, Lao Qi's house in the west of the village.

Just when Jia She collected the Starship and was about to fly over to see the scene, Qi Zhaodi and her father had already finished the shooting, and drove people out to collect pig grass and collect firewood without even giving them food.

Jia She followed Qi Zhaodi unhurriedly, watching her limping past many houses and greeting villagers into the mountain with her head buried, and walked deeper and deeper into the mountain.

Slowly, Qi Zhaodi walked into the deserted mountains. The sickle in her hand was swiping left and right, and the wooden stick in her other hand was beating the weeds that were half a man tall, scaring away many snakes, insects, rats, and ants.

Near a wooden pile that seemed to have been broken by large wild animals such as wild boars and tigers, he tore off a piece of cloth from himself and hung it on the grass. He also took a lot of firewood from his backpack and threw it down.

After walking deep into the mountain for more than half an hour, Qi Zhaodi carefully slid down a hillside. At the bottom was a small cave that was not very deep.

There are many uprooted hay, branches and tree trunks spread out on the outside of the small cave; the ground in the cave is very smooth as if it has just been tidied up. There are three large stones near the entrance of the cave, with burnt plant ashes in the center. It looks like a simple stove.

There are two small clay pots covered under a woven straw curtain on the side of the cave; a pair of bowls and chopsticks; a bag of about three kilograms of coarse cornmeal; a bag of about two kilograms of brown rice; about twenty potatoes; two bags wrapped in leaves. salt; half a candle; a pair of good clothes that are 80% new without patches; a pair of clean embroidered shoes; a purse of copper plates; three pieces of broken silver; a silver bracelet; a jade pendant with very good qualifications and worth a hundred taels.

After coming down to the cave, Qi Zhaodi opened the straw curtain and checked it out. Seeing that all the things she had secretly pulled out from Lao Qi's house during this period were there, she breathed a sigh of relief and took a clay pot out to fetch water.

They had to cook the food and prepare firewood and flint before the Lao Qi family noticed that she was missing, otherwise it would be difficult to light a fire if it was too late.

Jia She sat on the tree and just watched Qi Zhaodi busy going back and forth, feeling full of emotion in his heart.

I really didn't expect Qi Zhaodi to be able to do this. A month ago, Jia She passed by Hushan Village and saw Qi Zhaodi's father, Qi Tiezhu, playing dice with others under a tree. She instantly recognized this man whom she had met in Fucheng.

In the back of the Taoist Temple, Qi Tiezhu was talking to a woman dressed as Miss Qianjin. The woman looked extremely ugly. Just when Jia She thought this was some kind of drama about robbing a common girl, the woman began to smile forcefully again, and even Gave Qi Tiezhu some banknotes.

Out of curiosity, Jia She followed the two people and found out that the woman was Qian Linhui, the concubine of Qian Zhangrong, the sixth-rank magistrate of Fucheng, and the man was Qi Tiezhu, a villager in Hushan Village, Jiangshui County under the jurisdiction of Fucheng.

The gap in social status between the two people was really too big, and Jia She's curiosity was aroused again. He used his mental power to hypnotize the two of them, and got news that surprised Jia She - a real and fake daughter's drama.

In the late Kangxi period, Qian Rongzhang was awarded the same Jinshi title and took his parents, wife and children to Chengyang Town under the jurisdiction of Jiangshui County to serve as county magistrate. Among them was Qi Zhaodi's biological mother, Aunt Wang.

On the way to Qian Rongzhang's appointment, Aunt Wang couldn't bear the bumps and there were signs of premature birth. However, Qian Rongzhang had no choice but to find a nearby nunnery to visit Aunt Wang secretly.

Qian Rongzhang was born in a peasant family and his family was not rich. He relied on his wife's family for all his scientific research. In addition, he came from the capital to take office and was a simple servant. He did not have many servants. Aunt Wang was just a concubine, so he only had a mother-in-law. The wife will take care of the nanny and servants who serve the young master and the little girl. After the mistress has settled down, she will buy someone and send it over.

Qi Tiezhu's wife Li Cuihua gave birth to two daughters in a row. When she was pregnant with her third child, she ran to a nearby nunnery whenever she had free time, hoping to pray to the Bodhisattva to let her give birth to a boy.

After Aunt Wang lived in a nunnery to raise her baby, Li Cuihua learned more or less about Aunt Wang from the nuns' mouths. She was jealous and had bad thoughts in her heart, so she ran to the nunnery even more diligently.

In Li Cuihua's view, no matter whether she is a boy or a girl, she is the one who takes advantage.

If she gives birth to a boy, then let the boy become an official young master, and in the future he will be an official, and he will enjoy happiness for the rest of his life; if she gives birth to a girl, then that’s fine, let the girl go to the official’s family and become a wealthy lady, pampered and pampered until she is born again in the future. If you have a boy, you can still extort some money to send your baby to school, marry a good wife, buy a house and land, and live a good life.

After having this idea, Li Cuihua revealed it to Qi Tiezhu and asked Qi Tiezhu to cooperate.

Perhaps it was fate that Li Cuihua and Qi Tiezhu took a chance and met a bhikshuni who hurriedly went down the mountain to ask for a midwife.

The two of them watched the bhikshuni go away, and hurriedly walked into the woods, found a deserted place, took out the earthen jars and medicinal materials from the backpacks, carried the earthen jars and medicinal materials several times, fried a bowl of oxytocin for themselves, and took the earthenware jar. After carefully burying the medicine residue together with it, he quickly rushed towards the nunnery.

As soon as she entered the nunnery, Li Cuihua started to move. In order for the only midwife to take better care of the two mothers, Li Cuihua was arranged to the next door room.

Since Aunt Wang was born prematurely, the wet nurse and others arranged by the mistress hadn't arrived yet, so there was only one mother-in-law taking care of her the whole time, so it was inevitable that there would be some hesitation, and there would always be things that couldn't be taken care of.

In this way, Qi Tiezhu completed the exchange.

In order not to make Aunt Wang and the old woman suspicious, Li Cuihua and Qi Tiezhu did not leave immediately. Instead, they stayed in the nunnery for several days. They were also hired by Aunt Wang and the old woman as temporary wet nurses, earning two taels of silver.

In Buddhism, the official title for female monks is "bhiksuni", which means a woman who has become a monk and has received full ordination. Bihuni, Buddhist nun, Chunv, Xunnv, Shamoni, etc. are also acceptable. Nun is the common name for bhikshuni in China, which is slightly inconsistent with Buddhist regulations and is a title based on Chinese folk customs.
