Chapter 10: Space
Because the two villages were close, she had been to the Ge house a few times with her cousin. After sneaking into the courtyard, she went straight into the Ge grandmother's room and went on a "collect, collect, collect" spree.
After collecting what she liked from the kitchen, she went straight to the backyard and took the two hens the Ge family raised before stopping.
Without disturbing Ge Baocheng, who was dreaming in his room, she ran wildly into the mountains.
Finding a secluded bush, she impatiently followed the novels and muttered that she wanted to "go in."
Instantly, she lost her balance and changed locations: She didn't expect it to really work.
She looked at the space with joy. It was backed by a mountain and surrounded by water on three sides, with about ten acres of arable land at her feet. In the distance, near the mountain, there was a small courtyard.
Except for a few unknown trees sparsely growing on the mountain, the rest of the space was empty, with no signs of life.
Even so, she was overjoyed, running around the fields several times before calming down.
She walked toward the small courtyard. On the mountain wall to one side, a tiny spring flowed down into a natural stone pit, forming a small, miniature pool.
The courtyard wasn't large, and the door was open.
She carefully peeked inside. The floor was covered with smooth blue stone. The middle room was likely the living room, with a set of yellow pear wood tables and chairs and a chaise longue—very simple.
The left room was the kitchen, with a three-tiered shelf made of blue stone slabs holding various kitchen utensils—all antique-level. There was a door on the back wall; she realized it was the entrance to an underground warehouse.
The right room was a bedroom and study, also with yellow pear wood furniture—a bed, wardrobe, desk, and chair—but everything was empty.
Approaching the desk, she unexpectedly found a jade plaque. Unlike a jade pendant, it was surprisingly thin.
Holding it gently, she examined it for a long time but found no useful information. However, she understood: getting this space must be related to this plaque. No matter how she searched the original owner's memories, she couldn't find anything about it.
If she couldn't figure it out, she wouldn't. She would just take it as compensation from heaven for her transmigration.
Her stomach growled again: Heaven and earth are vast, but eating is the most important.
When she collected from the Ge kitchen, she had collected food.
Thinking of this, she was dumbfounded. Where were the things she collected?
Thinking of the few steamed buns in the basket, the items appeared in her hands.
Startled, she forgot she was still holding the jade plaque in her other hand. After a "My God," she slapped her forehead.
This slap was significant; a lot of information flooded her brain.
It clearly stated that the owner of the jade plaque was surnamed Xiao, a legacy left by a great ancestor for the younger generation. But why did she get this legacy?
Could she be a descendant of the Xiao family?
But how could that be?
After struggling for a while, she decided to let herself off the hook: Since the space was hers now, why obsess over it?
Thinking of the vast information in her brain, her strength and keen hearing were all due to this plaque. Even better, that accidental slap had allowed her to obtain a trace of spiritual energy left by the great ancestor on the plaque.
Excited, she placed the jade plaque on the table and knelt before it: "Junior doesn't know why I received this opportunity, but I am extremely grateful. I will definitely do more good deeds in the future to repay this heaven-sent grace." ===== CHAPTER 11 =====
