Gasp! She's a Time Traveler Using Modern Tech to Improve Ancient Life-Chapter 427 - 425: Had a Blast
When little Qingyu used the wild cat to save herself, the formerly bustling conversation outside the tiled house suddenly stopped, as if they had noticed the commotion inside.
"Bang!"
The already crumbling door of the tiled house shattered into several pieces and fell apart. At that moment, under the sunset outside, a girl dressed all in white appeared at the entrance.
This girl’s eyes were as deep as the ocean, her shoulders delicate like a carving, her waist slim like a fair ribbon, glowing like the sun rising at dawn, radiant like the lotus emerging from the waves—stunningly beautiful and eerily mysterious, unlike anyone from the ordinary world.
Anyone seeing her for the first time would feel a chill from the bottom of their heart.
The children inside the tiled house were all petrified, holding their breath, staring in shock at the doorway.
Only little Qingyu exclaimed joyfully, "Aunt Yixun!"
Indeed, the girl at the entrance was none other than Xiao Yixun, known for her mysterious ways.
"Follow me." Xiao Yixun glanced at little Qingyu, who had climbed up to pull off the hemp ropes from herself, and said faintly.
The little girl who had been talking to little Qingyu suddenly shouted, "Hey, can I follow you?"
Only then did little Qingyu remember there were others in the room. She quickly turned to untie the little girl’s ropes, "Sure, sure, let’s escape together."
Xiao Yixun slightly frowned but did not oppose.
Little Qingyu and the little girl together untied all the ropes on the children in the room. The latter introduced herself to the former as Song Sulan.
"My name is Lin Qingyu." As a polite child, little Qingyu returned the introduction with her full name.
Xiao Yixun said impatiently, "You talk too much."
Little Qingyu wasn’t afraid of Xiao Yixun’s indifference; she was long used to it. Instead, she happily ran to her side, looking up and asking, "Aunt Yixun, did mother send you to save me? Are we going back now?"
Xiao Yixun’s face showed a hint of embarrassment at the words. She had tracked little Qingyu today following the scent she left after Qingyu went missing, amidst the chaos of everyone searching for her.
Due to her lack of words and wanting to give Lin Wanwan a surprise by bringing Qingyu back, Xiao Yixun left Lin Family Manor without letting anyone know, just doing her own thing.
But she was a directionally challenged person! On her way tracking, she relied on Qingyu having the scent balls she had given her.
The poison insects her "sister" raised were most sensitive to this scent, enabling her to track it down.
But getting back would be hard, as relying solely on the residual scent in the air wouldn’t work! And now, the scent balls on Lin Wanwan are too far from her!
However, showing weakness was not an option. Although she no longer knew the way back to Lin Family Manor, Xiao Yixun remained calm.
Every time she got lost, she’d wait in place for her servants to come find her. This time, it could be the same, nothing to worry about.
Thus, Xiao Yixun calmly walked to the old woman lying on the ground in the yard, dragging one of her feet toward the Heavenly Court Well.
The old woman’s head bumped along the way, eventually waking her up.
But before she could call for help, Xiao Yixun poured a packet of powder into her mouth.
"Ugh! What did you feed me?"
Xiao Yixun looked down at the old woman lying on the ground, too weak to stand, too lazy to explain, only staring intently at her face.
Little Qingyu had always been in sync with Xiao Yixun. She immediately understood Yixun’s intentions, curiously squatting two meters away from the old woman, resting her chin on her hands, asking, "Aunt Yixun, are you using her to test poison?"
Xiao Yixun responded with a nod.
Finally getting out once, having recently secluded herself and researched many toxins, after accidentally poisoning a few free-range white feather chickens in Lin Family Manor, she was banned from playing with poison at home.
Xiao Yixun could ignore others, but she could never treat Lin Wanwan’s words lightly. Otherwise, how could she stay by her side!
Since she left home, there weren’t even any servants, let alone poison testers left with her.
Upon receiving Lin Wanwan’s letter, knowing she lived here in Wanghai Town, Mao County, her parents had no intent to send anyone to bring her back. Instead, they sent gifts, treating Lin Wanwan’s place like a rural retreat villa.
Lin Wanwan had a bit of sympathy for Xiao Yixun, the albino, personality disorder patient semi-abandoned by her parents.
Actually, as long as Xiao Yixun didn’t touch poison, even if her second personality came out, it wasn’t unpleasant, and they could coexist.
But when playing with poison... well, it was quite fun, as long as you weren’t the victim.
But suddenly, the old woman began laughing evilly, then jumped up, and with grand gestures, started performing alone in the yard.
About "breaking this girl’s hand, sending her to beg in the city east" and "that little girl looks good, sell her to Madam Wang for training" and "sending this boy to old man Wu in Pinggu Township, he likes fair-skinned ones," and other heinous acts.
Xiao Yixun watched the old woman coldly as she performed a solo act for quite a while before gradually quieting down, at the same time her face started turning blue.
"This dose was a bit wasteful," Xiao Yixun muttered to herself, waiting until the old woman vomited twice, then instructed Song Sulan to feed the old woman medicine.
Song Sulan reluctantly, stiffly approached the deranged old woman, fortunately she didn’t have to force it, as the old woman grabbed the brown pill from her hand and swallowed it herself.
The children freed by Qingyu walked out of the tiled house without crying or fussing. They sat in a row beside Qingyu, imitating her posture, resting their chins on their hands, watching the old woman and several conscious men perform under Xiao Yixun’s cold orders. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
"Why is he gnawing and kissing the tree? Is the tree delicious?" Little Qingyu muttered curiously.
Beside her, a waxy-faced four or five-year-old child shook his head, replied cluelessly, "Tree bark isn’t good to eat, it’s bitter and hard."
Clearly, this was a child from a very poor household who had chewed tree bark and eaten wild grass before.
"Aye, so shameful! Such a grown-up stripping outdoors!" Little Qingyu exclaimed, covering her face.
The children followed suit, yelling, "Shameful! Shameful!"
The wild cat that helped bite off Qingyu’s ropes sat on the rooftop, raising a paw, licking away, too lazy to watch the foolish humans’ antics.
While Lin Wanwan was anxious to the point of getting sick, Xiao Yixun and Qingyu were having fun.
They weren’t in a hurry to leave, tightened the yard’s door, and played inside.
Earlier this year, having trekked from Chang’an to find Lin Wanwan, Xiao Yixun experienced being robbed and tricked, thus she was quite savvy in dealing with such people now.
