Nianyang left the eggs and the hen that the Golden Widow gave her to the Jiang Family.
The Jiang Family firmly refused to accept, but it was only when Nianyang promised to come over every night for dinner that they reluctantly agreed.
Nianyang left the Jiang Family and didn’t return to the Gu Family immediately, but instead headed towards the direction of the back mountain. In the countryside, people rely on the mountains for survival, and there are plenty of treasures on this back mountain.
"Elf, can I take the herbs dug up from the back mountain and plant them in the space?" Nianyang communicated with the Elf mentally. The seeds in the Medical Space require Life Value to purchase, and what she’s lacking most now is Life Value. If she could bring external plants in for cultivation, it would save a lot of resources.
Most importantly, as a healer, Nianyang feels insecure without having some herbs on her. After all, having herbs means she can save people and gain more Life Value.
[Of course you can, as long as it’s herbs you’ve personally planted, you can obtain Life Value from it.]
Nianyang curled her lips. Since this is the case, she decided she would bring tools to the mountain to dig for herbs another day. For now, she’d better not. There are wild beasts and poisonous creatures on the mountain, and going alone would be risky. She can’t act recklessly.
With her mind made up, Nianyang headed back. As she passed a small grove, her keen ears caught an unpleasant sound.
She parted the shadows at a corner of the forest and saw Gu Youlan being pressed under a phoenix tree by Zhang Zhiqiang, touching and kissing, akin to a live broadcast.
"Qiang, Brother Qiang, don’t do this. If someone sees us..." Gu Youlan leaned against Zhang Zhiqiang’s shoulder, clearly enjoying it, yet feigned a posture of wanting to reject while welcoming — a trick most men fall for.
Zhang Zhiqiang looked at Gu Youlan’s flushed face from the kisses and felt a surge of fire in his lower abdomen, "It’s fine, Lanlan, everyone’s at work now, who has time to come here? Let me kiss you..."
"But you’re my sister’s fiancé. I like you, but I can’t hurt my sister..." Gu Youlan pretended to be troubled, but upon closer inspection, her eyes were filled with calculations and schemes.
"Don’t mention that stupid ugly fool to me; how can she compare to you, Lanlan? If it weren’t for my grandfather’s superstition forcing me into a child betrothal with her, I wouldn’t even glance at her. Thankfully, he passed away last year, and after some time, I’ll return home and tell my dad straight, to switch the engagement to you, my darling." Zhang Zhiqiang said as he hugged Gu Youlan vigorously, his hands roaming into her chest.
Gu Youlan’s lips curled into a triumphant smile, panting under the teasing.
Nianyang watched the scene coldly. These two were the original character’s sister and fiancé, yet did such filthy things behind her back.
Speaking of Zhang Zhiqiang, he was considered the town’s privileged young master because he was the son of the mayor, coming from a good family.
The reason the original character got engaged to him was because his grandfather was a fortune teller who predicted she’d bring prosperity to whoever married her, and forced the engagement.
But Gu Youlan eyed Zhang Zhiqiang’s wealth, thinking that marrying him would mean a prosperous life, so she went to great lengths to seduce him.
[Wow, these two disgusting lowlifes, let me help you teach them a lesson.] The Elf spoke with righteous indignation.
"Elf, you can see the scenes outside the space too?" Nianyang was surprised.
[Of course I can, I’m no ordinary Elf. I can see through things and even control from afar.] The Elf said boastfully.
That’s an excellent skill!
Nianyang’s eyes lit up, "Alright, then help me deal with these scum!"

Gu Youlan and Zhang Zhiqiang kissed more passionately, almost igniting the flames.
"Splat!"
A lump of bird poop fell without warning onto their closely joined lips.
"Damn it!" Zhang Zhiqiang was the first to react, immediately disgusted, he weakly pushed Gu Youlan away, spat on the ground in revulsion.
Gu Youlan was directly pushed to the ground, casting her gaze to see Nianyang’s figure behind.
"Yang, Yangyang, why are you here?" Gu Youlan jumped up in shock, wondering if Gu Nianyang had seen the previous scene.
"I was just wandering here, didn’t expect to run into you and Brother Zhiqiang, why are you together?" Nianyang asked innocently, like a naive girl.
