Chapter 77 A new bud sprouted from a dead tree



Zhao Zhenzhu, who was giving Zhou Yunyun a bath, was stunned by what she heard.

It’s not that Zhao Zhenzhu wanted to eavesdrop, but her hearing was a little abnormal.

Although Zhao Qingshan and Wu Meiyu lowered their voices when they spoke, Zhao Zhenzhu still heard everything clearly.

The more Zhao Zhenzhu listened, the more curious she became.

Her mother is actually a lady from a wealthy family?

Did her dad retire from the army because he wanted to marry her mom?

Mom has been often depressed in recent years. Does she feel that she has hindered Dad's future?

Ahhh! What on earth is going on?

"Mom, I'm done washing, please take me out quickly!" Zhou Yunyun protested.

Zhou Yunyun felt that her mother was acting strange today.

I was absent-minded and didn't notice that I had soaped her twice during the bath. Now I'm going to soap her for the third time.

"I'm sorry, baby. Mom's mind was wandering just now." Zhao Zhenzhu said with a smile after she came back to her senses.

"Mom, please work harder next time! Soap is very expensive!" Zhou Yunyun looked distressed.

Zhou Yunyun likes the sweet smell of soap. Once when she was taking a bath, she asked Zhao Zhenzhu to rub soap on her one more time.

Zhao Zhenzhu told Zhou Yunyun that soap was very expensive, and Zhou Yunyun always remembered it!

"I know! Little housekeeper." Zhao Zhenzhu quickly took her daughter out of the bathtub, dried her body, put on her clothes, and then stuffed her into the quilt.

"Mom, I don't want to sleep. Can I play with my brother for a while longer?" Zhou Yunyun lay in the quilt, blinking her eyes and making the request.

"No! You have to go to bed early tonight. Your brother has to go to school tomorrow!" Zhao Zhenzhu refused.

"Okay!" Zhou Yunyun closed her eyes obediently.

Ten minutes later, Zhou Yunyun began to breathe evenly.

Zhao Zhenzhu hurried into the space.

Zhao Zhenzhu’s space is as big as three basketball courts.

Zhao Zhenzhu's goods are packed in containers, stacked up densely, which looks particularly spectacular.

Zhao Zhenzhu had a thought and appeared in the northeast corner of the space.

Here, there is a one-square-meter piece of black land, surrounded by a half-man-high white jade railing. In the middle of the black land, there is a half-man-high, finger-thick withered branch. It is gray-brown in appearance and looks lifeless.

When she first got the space, Zhao Zhenzhu would come to water the "dead branches" every day.

As a result, a year passed and the dead branches were still dead branches, without any change.

Zhao Zhenzhu once thought about pulling out this "dead branch".

The beautiful white jade railings, surrounded by a "dead branch", look too annoying. It would be better to plant some flowers and plants!

As a result, Zhao Zhenzhu hit a "hard wall". No matter what she did, she couldn't move this "dead branch".

Digging with a shovel?

With one shovelful of digging, the black soil was so hard that it could cause sparks to fly off the shovel.

Cut with scissors? Burn with fire?

Even though the dry branches have no moisture and look like they could die at any time, they are actually invulnerable to swords and guns, and are immune to water and fire.

After trying several times, Zhao Zhenzhu gave up.

It was just a dry branch, it didn't take up much space. The space was so big, Zhao Zhenzhu couldn't use it all anyway, so one or two square meters didn't matter.

As for whether it is beautiful or not?

Forget it!

Nothing is more important than the word "habit".

Once you get used to it, it will become pleasing to the eye.

But today, just half a minute ago, Zhao Zhenzhu discovered that the "dead branch" in the space had slowly sprouted a green new bud.

New buds sprouting from dead branches? Zhao Zhenzhu was overjoyed.

In her previous life, after Zhao Zhenzhu donated half of her fortune, Master Yiye told her: When new buds sprout from the dead branches, it will be the beginning of the restart of her family's destiny.

Zhao Zhenzhu originally thought that what Master Yiye meant by "when new buds sprout from dead branches" was next spring.

I didn't expect that this sentence would come true on the "dead branches" in the space.

After Zhou Yunyun fell asleep, Zhao Zhenzhu hurried into the space to see what was going on.

As a result, Zhao Zhenzhu circled the railing several times and looked at the "dead tree" again and again.

It turned out that apart from a new sprout, the "dead tree" seemed to be no different from before.

Why did it sprout suddenly? Did she do something unusual today?

Zhao Zhenzhu thought about it silently in her mind.

Zhao Zhenzhu had a quarrel with Ding Ermei today. Ding Ermei should still be detained in the police station.

He fell out with Liang Xiaohe again and slapped Liang Xiaohe in the face.

Then, I sold a watch to Grandma Hua.

Then, let her father go find Aunt Tao.

What incident affected the fate of their family?

Zhao Zhenzhu thought about it and finally decided to go out and take a look.

Zhao Zhenzhu's space can not only be used as a storage warehouse, but also can be used for invisibility and teleportation under Zhao Zhenzhu's control.

Of course, this teleportation function has a big drawback: it consumes a lot of Zhao Zhenzhu's mental energy.

With Zhao Zhenzhu's current strength, she can barely control the space to teleport within a kilometer twice a day.

After using it twice, Zhao Zhenzhu has to rest for half a month before she can activate space teleportation again.

The police station where Ding Ermei works is about 700 meters away from Zhao's home. Grandma Hua's home is less than 100 meters away from Zhao's home. Aunt Tao's home is about 500 meters away from Zhao's home, and Liang Xiaohe's home is about 800 meters away from Zhao's home.

Zhao Zhenzhu couldn't make up her mind for a moment, not knowing where to go.

Taohua Town Police Station, detention room.

The time goes back to 3:30 in the afternoon.

A square-faced young man came over and kicked Ding Ermei's foot, saying, "Old woman, move in."

Ding Ermei said nothing and tried to shrink back in.

"Move further in." The young man kicked Ding Ermei again.

"There's no room inside." Ding Ermei said timidly.

Ding Ermei knew that the young man was looking for trouble on purpose, but she didn't dare to call for help.

So far today, five people have been detained in the detention room.

A middle-aged woman in her forties, who was there when Ding Ermei came in, had disheveled hair and kept muttering to herself facing the wall, as if she was mentally ill.

Ding Ermei tried to talk to the middle-aged woman, but she ignored her.

The young man's surname was Fang, and he was in the same group as two other young men, one of whom was surnamed Wu and the other was surnamed Yuan.

These three young men were all gangsters in the town and came in about half an hour later than Ding Ermei.

After entering, the three young men kept talking. Xiao Wu boasted that he had "strong connections" and that he could leave after staying here for one night at most. Xiao Yuan boasted that his elder brother was "capable" and that he would definitely be able to leave tomorrow afternoon. Xiao Fang said that he had done nothing wrong and that the police had arrested the wrong person.

Ding Ermei was confused and couldn't help but interrupt: "How come you were arrested if you didn't commit any crime?"

Xiao Fang's face darkened. He raised his hand and slapped Ding Ermei in the face, cursing, "You know nothing."

Xiao Fang is Cao Laoliu's subordinate and was arrested for stealing someone's wallet in a state-owned restaurant.
