Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, three years have passed. As the New Year approaches, every household is very busy. Old Lady Feng delivered babies for several nearby families at the end of the year and received a lot of New Year's goods.
The Feng family has a new little kid. Normally, little kids are the most troublesome, but the three people in the Feng family seem to have endless energy every day and don’t feel tired at all.
Jiaojiao is also very well-behaved, not crying or making a fuss, and is very cute. After Shuixiu gave birth to Jiaojiao, she spent two months in confinement. Her health is better than before the birth of the child, and her voice is fuller. Even Mrs. Feng often praises her for her spirited spirit.
Meanwhile, Jiaojiao was lying on the bed next to her, legs crossed, playing. For the past three years, she'd done nothing but eat, drink, and sleep. Oh, no, she'd also planted a lot of peach trees, seven or eight hundred. Most of them were now full of peaches, and she probably wouldn't be able to eat them all.
Jiaojiao gradually adapted to this identity. Her family loved her very much, and she also accepted this family psychologically and had the same feelings towards them.
In order to let her family eat such delicious peaches, she did some experiments half a year ago and actually planted two peach trees in the Feng family's small yard. Now she is just waiting to eat the fruits!
After planting the peach tree outside, she realized the extraordinary power of her space. The peach tree in the Feng family courtyard was already an anomaly, growing only a little over a meter tall after six months. But the peach tree in her space blossomed and bore fruit in just one month.
During these three years, Grandma Feng's home was the most popular place for children in the village. When children went up the mountain to pick wild fruits and other mountain products, they would first bring them to Grandma Feng's home to see if they could exchange them for some candy.
Old Lady Feng would usually leave behind anything edible, giving the children a handful of candied peanuts. The children happily scattered after receiving the candied peanuts. Only one girl, Xiaoya, stood out from the others. She always stayed to play with Jiaojiao.
That day she was in no hurry to leave as usual, and stayed to talk to Jiaojiao at cross purposes.
"Jiaojiao, look, I found a few chestnuts." Three chestnuts lay in the little girl's cracked, swollen palms. "These are delicious. I often secretly bury them under the pot when I'm cooking. When the rice is cooked, I can eat them. They are so fragrant!"
She saw Jiaojiao running around in the yard by herself, and took out a few dried dates from her pocket.
"This is so sweet! Do you want it?"
In the morning, after washing her face, Lianhua splashed the water in the yard. In the winter, the temperature was low and the water in the basin was frozen, making the surface very smooth.
Jiaojiao didn't take the ice seriously, but as soon as she took a step forward, she realized that she had overestimated her small body and was about to fall on the ice...
The little girl suddenly rushed over and fell on the ice, and the little kid Jiaojiao fell on her.
"Oh my! Jiaojiao, why did you fall down?" Old Mrs. Feng just went back to the house to put away the things she had exchanged. When she came out, she saw Xiao Ya rushing over and Jiaojiao fell on her.
Old Lady Feng picked up Jiaojiao and pulled Xiaoya up as well: "It's all thanks to Xiaoya. Good child, wait, grandma will bring you something delicious."
Jiaojiao stared at Xiaoya in astonishment from Old Lady Feng's embrace. Since her reincarnation into this world, this was the first time she'd seen someone's future, albeit only a fragment. Just now, as she'd thrown Xiaoya, a sudden image flooded her mind. She'd seen Xiaoya walking on a river in the dead of winter, only to have the ice crack and she'd fall in.
The river water was freezing cold, and Xiaoya struggled for only a short while before sinking. By the time her family arrived, it was too late.
Something's going to happen to Xiaoya! Compared to the surprise of her own bloodline revival, the fact that Xiaoya is in trouble makes Jiaojiao even more anxious. How should she warn Xiaoya's family?
Jiaojiao looked at Old Lady Feng. She had been in this family for three years and knew full well how much they loved her. Even in her infancy, she often refused milk, her whole body fragrant as a peach. She wondered what she would do in another family. In the Feng family, however, Old Lady Feng helped to cover up Jiaojiao's behavior.
Not only that, she also held her daughter in her hands and loved her as if she were a pearl or jade.
However, Jiaojiao looked at Old Lady Feng carefully and frowned.
Old Lady Feng is a midwife and also knows some medical skills. She can treat common illnesses, such as headaches, fevers, and snake bites.
Two days later, a boy named Baoshuan from the next village came to see Old Lady Feng with a fever. Her condition wasn't serious, so Old Lady Feng gave him a few herbs from her household supplies and told them to boil them at home. Before Baoshuan's family left, Old Lady Feng told them that if the fever persisted after two days, they should be taken to the county hospital.
Rural residents rarely visit hospitals for the most common illnesses. Firstly, they're too far away, and secondly, they're too expensive. Rural residents, living off the land, have a certain awe and reverence for hospitals.
Last year, Baoshuan's father was killed by a rock while working outside, leaving him as the only child in the family. With only a few elderly, weak, women, and children left, the family lives in extreme poverty.
Baoshuan returned from Grandma Feng's house and took Chinese medicine for two days, but the high fever did not go down. Baoshuan's grandmother thought about it and worried that it would be too expensive to go to the county town to see a doctor, so she took the medicine at home for another day.
But something bad happened on the third day. Baoshuan's fever reached over 40 degrees and he fainted. By the time his family rushed him to the hospital, it was too late.
Baoshuan's mother and grandmother couldn't stand the stimulation and came to find Mrs. Feng to settle the score, saying that she was the one who killed Baoshuan. Although Mrs. Feng knew that her treatment was fine, she couldn't argue with them because the child had died after all.
However, because of this incident, word spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and as it spread, it distorted the story. Many people said that Old Lady Feng had killed someone.
This incident was a big blow to Old Lady Feng. She had been respected all her life and no one had ever treated her like this.
