Chapter 79 The Life of a Peasant Girl (78)



That day, Tang Baozhu and Situ Rui led a large group of people away from the villa, intending to explore and see what unique charm Daliang had under Situ Rui's rule.

When the two of them traveled to each county or city, they would stop and wander around, secretly buying local specialties and other nice things to keep.

When Tang Baozhu left the palace, she had already given her share of the profits to the emperor, who was also her eldest son. Situ Rui had also handed over his share. Fortunately, neither of them lacked money, so they didn't care much about handing it over.

The two of them would stay away from home for about five years before returning to the capital. They wandered around for about fifteen years before having to return due to Situ Rui's health condition.

Situ Rui's body had been poisoned too much in his early years, and even after he abdicated, Tang Baozhu often fed him good food, but it could not stop the decay of his internal organs.

Tang Baozhu knew that Situ Rui's life was nearing its end, so she spent the last few years of his life with him in the villa.

Three years later, Situ Rui's health could no longer be saved, and he passed away quietly in the early morning.

When Tang Baozhu first discovered it, she was completely stunned. Regardless of what kind of person he was, the two of them had been together for decades, and suddenly he was gone. She felt very bad.

Moreover, Situ Rui was indeed very good to her. Except for the first year or two, the two lived like husband and wife for the rest of the years and had long regarded each other as their other half.

Situ Rui's funeral was exceptionally grand. After all, he was the previous emperor, and this emperor was their son. They dared not treat him perfunctorily.

Since Situ Rui's burial, Tang Baozhu has been in a daze, seemingly lacking energy and unable to do anything.

Her children were still worried about her and took turns staying with her in the other house, and even invited their grandchildren to come and stay with her.

They wanted the children to keep bothering her so she wouldn't dwell on losing Situ Rui. It took her about six months to finally recover.

It's not that the children's methods worked, but Tang Baozhu knew her identity and would continue to do the missions. Although this was her first mission, she felt it was particularly unforgettable. She thought that as she did more missions, she wouldn't feel such deep emotions anymore.

Now that she has recovered, she told her children and their kids to go back to their own homes. She was doing just fine living alone in the other house and didn't need them to worry about her.

When she's alone late at night, she'll go into her little space and look around, then chat in the red envelope group and watch them talk.

Tang Baozhu has lost interest in chatting in the red envelope group. Apart from those cultivation worlds and people from special worlds, such as those from ancient and modern worlds, they have all passed away.

Those people I used to chat with are no longer here. Even Physician Zhang from the same plane has aged terribly. Fortunately, because he was a physician, he had accumulated a lot of merit by saving lives, so he no longer worries about his next life.

For Tang Baozhu, Physician Zhang was at least an acquaintance from the same plane. When she had nothing to do, she would often ask him to make some ready-made medicines for her, especially when she had a small space where she could grow an abundance of medicinal herbs.

Besides growing some spices and raising fish and shrimp in the rivers and ponds, all the other land is planted with medicinal herbs.

After Situ Rui passed away, Tang Baozhu stayed in the villa and didn't go anywhere else, because she had no interest in going anywhere by herself.

She often summoned Physician Zhang to learn medicine from him. With her current memory, she could memorize a medical book in just two or three readings. Her medical skills improved with each learning session, and she frequently used palace maids from other courtyards as test subjects, treating them with remarkable efficiency.

Of course, for those cases that couldn't be cured, they would definitely ask Physician Zhang to continue treating them, while they secretly learned from him on the sidelines.

She studied under Physician Zhang at the villa for ten years until his death, at which point her studies ceased. Of course, by then Tang Baozhu's medical skills might not have been as good as Physician Zhang's, but they were not far off.

Because Tang Baozhu was learning medicine, the big shots in the cultivation world and the immortal world gave her a lot of help, especially the medical books from their world and the medical books from the cultivation world (of course, they called it medical cultivation there). They also gave her a lot of cultivation techniques and jade slips.

The rest she would have to figure out on her own. Since it was from another world, it was quite difficult. Fortunately, her medical skills were sufficient for her now, so she didn't have to worry about dying easily in another world.

Tang Baozhu lived a long life in this life; at least, she was already 80 years old. However, because she ate so many health-enhancing foods, she was still in excellent health.

It's also possible that because he practiced some kind of cultivation technique, he didn't look too ugly, except that all his hair had turned white.

Because she dared not continue cultivating the technique, she only cultivated the first level before stopping. She planned to ask the system for help before continuing her cultivation after returning to the system space.

Tang Baozhu's eldest son had long since abdicated and handed over the throne to his grandson, and now lives in a separate residence, ostensibly to show filial piety to his mother.

Situ Hui felt that since becoming emperor, he had been extremely busy and it was difficult to find time to spend with his mother. Now that he had abdicated, he finally had some free time.

So now he's glued to Tang Baozhu all day, as if he's gone back to decades ago.

Tang Baozhu accepts her eldest son's clinginess well, since his wife has already passed away, and the two of them are now living happily together.

As Tang Baozhu grew older, she felt that her time was slowly coming to an end. Every day she would organize the supplies in her small space and the red envelope group warehouse, hoping to make more and more complete preparations so that she would not be unprepared next time.

Situ Hui felt that his mother seemed to be in a hurry, as if there was something she had to do.

Tang Baozhu put away everything that Situ Rui had given her. After all, he was her first mission and the first person she had ever loved. She was worried that she would forget him in the future, so she organized everything and marked it.

That day, Tang Baozhu felt that her time had come. She took a bath, changed her clothes, and tidied herself up. Her clothes were neat and tidy. She lay on the bed and waited quietly.

By this time, she was very old, and her eldest son had passed away before her. She faced her death calmly, without any fear, quietly feeling the weakness in her body, and then she lost consciousness.
