Chapter 391: Chapter 385 Be Reincarnated Into a Good Family
Trantor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Unlike Zhao Changrong, Zhao Changgui and Zhao Changfu were pampered from a young age.
They witnessed Zhao Baotian being beheaded, but Madam Ma and Zhao
Changrong were unaffected by the incident. Not only would they not be grateful for Madam Ma taking care of them, but they might even transfer their hatred toward the mother-son duo.
Sooner orter, Madam Ma and Zhao Changrong would regret their decision today.
Of course, Zhao Chuchu would not say anything. This was Madam Ma’s own choice.
As for whether Zhao Changgui and Zhao Changfu would hate her, she was not concerned about it.
She would definitely settle the score with Zhao Baotian for murdering the parents of the original owner of her body!
Otherwise, they would have died unjustly!
This incident was the topic of discussion in Lengshui Vige for a very long time.
Now, the members of the Zhao n truly avoided Zhao Chuchu whenever they saw her. They dared not approach her at all. They feared she would be angry at them for Zhao Baolin’s death.
After Zhao Chuchu finished handling the incident and asked the opinion of the vige elders, she sought help to find the parents of the original owner, a new grave. They then moved their bones and reburied them.
After burying them, Zhao Chuchu kneeled before their graves and burned paper money. She said, “I have sought justice for your deaths. I hope that you are rewarded for your good deeds and can be reincarnated into a good family. Although I am not truly your daughter, I will live on for her sake. I will make sure you can stand tall in the afterlife.”
A vigermented, “Aye, do you feel the wind getting stronger? There was no wind just a moment ago.”
Another added, “Baolin and his wife must be happy. After all, Chuchu did not let them die in vain.”
“Fortunately, Chuchu is around. Otherwise, Baolin and his wife would have died so unjustly. Who would have imagined that Zhao Baotian was so despicable?”
Zhao Chuchu also felt that the wind around her neck was exceptionally strong after she said what she wanted to say. It was as though Zhao Baolin and his wife were expressing their gratitude.
Zhao Chuchu kowtowed three times.
She managed to live by upying this body. These three bows were well deserved.
Xie Heng, who was beside her, also followed suit.
After the candles and paper money were burned, Zhao Chuchu put away the offerings.
Moving graves was a huge deal for the vigers. They all came to help, so Zhao Chuchu had to treat them to a meal. She did not continue to linger on the mountain. She had to return to help Old Mrs. Chen prepare dinner as soon as possible. Otherwise, it would be dark soon now that winter was approaching.
Old Mrs. Chen and her daughters-inw had always been capable. So when Zhao Chuchu and Xie Heng reached home, most of the dishes were already done.
Aside from them, the women from Niu Tongsheng’s house had also gone to help.
By the time dinner was over, it was already dark outside. Everyone chatted at the Xie residence for a while and then went back home.
Zhao Chuchu finally had time to take a nice bath after a busy day.
The season had now transitioned to winter. It would soon be the end of the year. After the new year, they would need to prepare to move to the capital.
Before this, she had promised to teach the vigers how to use soybeans to make douchi and soy sauce. She needed to put it on the agenda now.
The process of making douchi and soy sauce wasplicated. It was not as simple as making tofu and tofu skins.
Zhao Chuchu was lost in thought.
Seeing that Zhao Chuchu did note out after such a long time and that there was no movement inside, Xie Heng thought that she had fallen asleep. So he knocked on the bathroom door and said, “Chuchu, have you fallen asleep? It is chilly. Don’t catch a cold.”
Only then did Zhao Chuchu regain her senses. She discovered that the water was already cold.
Fortunately, she was not afraid of the cold. Otherwise, she would truly catch a cold.
“No, I haven’t. I will be out in a minute,” said Zhao Chuchu as she dressed as fast as possible.
Xie Heng waited outside with a cape. When Zhao Chuchu came out, he draped it over her shoulders. He said, “If you are tired, go and sleep first. I already warmed the nkets with hot water bottles. If you lie down now, the temperature will be just right.”
Zhao Chuchuughed and asked, “Are you afraid that I will be cold?”
“When winteres, it is easier to catch a cold,” said Xie Heng as he patted her head. “Quickly, go lie down.”
Zhao Chuchu initially did not want to trouble Xie Heng. However, she could not bring herself to turn down his good intentions. So, she happily returned to her room and burrowed into her bed.
When Xie Heng returned to the room after his bath, Zhao Chuchu discussed the matter of douchi and soy sauce with him.
In reality, Xie Heng had begun to process douchi. However, it took a long time for the beans to be fermented, so they had yet to find out whether or not he had seeded.
Xie Heng advised, “We will know in the twelfth month. If we seed, then we can ask the Chen n to give it a try too. However, Chuchu, I still propose that we not leave the production of douchi and soy sauce to the vigers in Lengshui Vige. People are selfish by nature. The Chen and Niu ns can be trusted, but I can’t say the same for the other ns.”
“I know. I am only teaching them the technique. It’s up to them whether or not they can sessfully produce it. I have decided to coborate with the Yuan n to produce douchi and soy sauce. I know not to put all my eggs in one basket, but the Chen n has helped us a lot.”
Zhao Chuchu appreciated the Chen n’s help in caring for the original owner and the Xie n. Moreover, the Chen n was kindhearted, so she was willing
to lend them a hand. If they refused to work hard and could not yield sess, she was not to me for their failure.
“That’s fine as long as you know what you’re doing.”
Xie Heng did not pursue the topic any further.
Time flew by. The news of Zhao Baotian being beheaded gradually dropped from the conversations among the vigers. In the blink of an eye, they hade to the end of the year.
A year had concluded, and a new year wasing. It was a new beginning for all of them.
Due to Zhao Chuchu, the vigers’ living standards improved by leaps and bounds.
As such, she received many gifts from the vigers. The Xie n was running out of space to store all the presents they received.
On top of that, as the new year arrived, more and more strangers frequented Lengshui Vige, intending to visit Zhao Chuchu. They came with all kinds of offerings. These people were patients with the big belly disease. Now that they werepletely cured, they came bearing gifts to thank her.
Zhao Chuchu tried all sorts of ways to turn down their gifts but to no avail. Some people did not even give her a chance to say no. They left right after leaving the goods at her door. They were very worried that she would return the items to them.
Zhao Chuchu helplessly said, “There’s so much stuff. We don’t even have space to store them anymore. Why don’t we choose some and send them over to the Gan n? It’s been a while since we visited Grandpa Gan.”
“Alright,” Xie Heng agreed while nodding his head. “Stay put. I will pick out some items.”
“Let me help you.”
“You can sit and watch by the side.”
Xie Heng did not need Zhao Chuchu’s help. He had selected many items, and they nned to visit the town tomorrow.
Zhao Chuchu sighed. “Time really flies. In the blink of an eye, it’s almost the new year. I feel like I have done nothing, and a year has already passed.”
“That’s not true. You have done a lot. Look at Lengshui Vige. It’spletely different now.”
“You’re right. However, it has been a long time since Ist anticipated the arrival of the new year. Oh ya! Should we set off some fireworks on New Year’s Eve?”
“Fireworks?”
Zhao Chuchu exined, “Hmm. They are like firecrackers, but we shoot them into the sky. They will explode in mid-air and are shaped like flowers. The disy is stunning, so they are called fireworks. You have never seen them before, right? This year, I will show you.”
“Alright. I look forward to it.”
“When the timees, we can gather everyone in the vige for some fun.
That’s the true spirit of celebrating the new year!”
Before the descent of the post-apocalyptic world, fireworks were prohibited everywhere. Zhao Chuchu had only seen fireworks disyed by the government during major events. She had not set off fireworks herself for a long time.
