"Xiaoxue, the sun's already high in the sky, why are you still sleeping?"
When Lin Cuihua returned from the fields, she saw that the house was deserted and knew that her lazy daughter was still sleeping.
She couldn't help but knock on her daughter's door, but there was no sound from inside. Startled, Lin Cuihua quickly went in to check.
"Minor Snow!"
"Xiaoxue?"
"Little Snow!!!"
They found their daughter lying motionless on the kang (a heated brick bed), her body ice-cold, and she wasn't breathing.
Startled, Lin Cuihua screamed so hard her voice cracked.
"What are you doing?"
Lin Xue, who had just transmigrated, trembled at the scream in her ear.
I almost scared myself away!
"Xiaoxue, are you alright?"
Feeling the person in her arms move, Lin Cuihua, who had been crying, immediately came to her senses.
"It's nothing, I'm just still half asleep!"
"You didn't think I was dead, did you?"
Lin Xue could tell what had happened just by looking at the other person's expression.
Although it's unclear whether the original owner is truly dead, the weakening of life force within the body suggests that the original owner might have died before!
She had never worn clothes on someone who had just died before, and felt a little cold.
"It's good that you're alright!"
"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey! Spit three times right now!"
"Your health isn't good to begin with, and you were completely still just now, so I misunderstood and that's why I acted that way!"
"Now that everything is alright, let's not say anything unlucky!"
Lin Xue gleaned a wealth of information from Lin Cuihua's few words.
First of all, the original owner's body was not in good condition.
Secondly, the woman in front of her must have a very close relationship with her, and she is very likely the original owner's mother.
Finally, this woman doted on the original owner of the body.
Although the plot hasn't been transmitted yet, Lin Xue has already figured out how her character should develop.
"Mom, please help me up, this kang (heated brick bed) is so cold!"
The "Oh my god" was mainly used to test whether this woman was indeed the original owner's mother.
If not, she can also use this word as an interjection.
It wouldn't arouse the woman's suspicion, and it would be easy for him to cover it up.
"Xiaoxue, why don't you sit by the door for a while?"
"It's midday now, and it's very hot outside!"
Lin Cuihua was too embarrassed to say, "Who heats their kang (heated brick bed) in the middle of summer?"
But her daughter was in poor health; she had just become completely stiff.
Since her daughter complained of being cold, she went to heat the kang (a traditional heated bed) for her.
"Okay, I've had enough sleep too!"
Judging from the other person's expression and tone, Lin Xue guessed that the weather was definitely not cold.
But why does she feel so cold?
I tried to mobilize the spiritual energy within my body, but found that I couldn't feel it for the time being.
I don't know if it's due to the original owner's body or if something happened during the transfer process.
Sitting at the gate of the courtyard, Lin Xue looked at the clothes drying in the yard.
Floral print top, gray pants.
Several hens were wandering around the coop, occasionally pecking at something.
There was a pigpen in the corner, and the sound of pigs rooting in the feeding trough could be heard coming from inside.
The house is L-shaped, with doors on both sides.
The two rooms on the left are connected to the kitchen, which has two stoves, probably used for heating the kang (a traditional heated bed) and for cooking.
The room she just slept in was a bit smaller; the other room must be her mother's bedroom.
I haven't been inside the room on the far right, but I can guess it's a main room or living room or something like that.
Go outside the house on the right, right by the courtyard wall, there is a simple chicken coop.
Further ahead is a flat-roofed building, with the main gate directly below.
It connects two storage rooms and a toilet.
One of the storage rooms was filled with chopped firewood, and the other storage room seemed to contain grain and other items.
The toilet is next to the pigsty; although they are connected, they do not interfere with each other.
There is a long clothesline in front of the chicken coop.
Two floral shirts were drying on the rack, one slightly loose and the other a little smaller; they were probably her and her mother's clothes.
There were several pairs of gray pants next to her, and it was easy to tell which pair belonged to her based on their size.
I stretched out my arm and looked at the original owner's body—it was very thin!
His entire body is nothing but skin and bones.
Moreover, every time I breathe, I feel a tightness in my chest and a slight throbbing pain.
It seems this girl has a heart ailment. Although doctors cannot heal themselves, Lin Xue still took her pulse.
My health is very poor, and I am deficient in both qi and blood.
It seems she doesn't usually like to eat much, which is probably related to her illness.
My heart beats faster than normal, and I get very breathless even with the slightest movement.
[I never expected to transmigrate into the body of a sickly person this time!]
[System, why aren't you saying anything?]
[Hurry up and transmit the storyline!]
After observing the conditions of the house and checking her own body, Lin Xue calmly summoned the system.
But 629, who is usually available whenever called, didn't come out today for some reason. She called three times in a row but it didn't.
"The system?"
The two main systems had spent so much time together that Lin Xue could clearly sense the system was in the system space, but why didn't it reply?
[System, come out quickly, don't scare me!]
She called out to her twice more, but found that 629 still ignored her.
Lin Xue felt that something must have happened during the transmission process.
The only thing she was certain of was that the system hadn't disappeared, which was something that gave her some comfort.
Having spent so much time together, she had long since developed a deep friendship with the system.
