Chapter 165: Chapter 165 The Lingzhi Must Not Be Disturbed (For Vice Edition Lord Wei Chi +)
At the same time, her vision suddenly went dark, and she felt so exhausted that she couldn’t even stand, collapsing onto the ground.
Chiang Xiao immediately understood that this space required medicinal herbs for support, and her current physical strength was due to the nourishment of those herbs.
The ordinary herbs weren’t very important; what played a major role were those two Lingzhi mushrooms.
Now that she had dug out the Lingzhi, her body had reverted to the state it was in after a severe illness and high fever.
Under such circumstances, how could she have the energy and strength to accompany her grandfather to the town hospital tomorrow? If she ran into the people from the Old Chiang Family again, particularly Chiang Baohe, she would indeed be powerless.
Chiang Xiao, with a face full of frustration, had no choice but to quickly replant the two Lingzhi mushrooms.
In an instant, the blurry and white surroundings cleared up as if clouds had parted to reveal the moon, revealing the other half of the space once more.
Her strength returned.
Indeed, it was as she had suspected.
Chiang Xiao now looked at the two Lingzhi mushrooms with feelings of helplessness.
The realization that she couldn’t use such precious treasures was truly unpleasant.
At this time, her body absolutely could not fail her. With her grandfather injured, her family desperately poor, debts to repay, hospital visits to make, and money to earn, how could she afford to fall?
Hence, she could neither consume nor sell the two Lingzhi mushrooms. They could only remain planted there for her to watch over.
It seemed she would have to find another way to make money.
She would ask the doctor tomorrow, perhaps using those small Ganoderma mushrooms to strengthen her grandfather’s body would be fine.
The medicinal fragrance and the scent of flowers within the space merged into a peaceful and subtle aroma that gradually calmed Chiang Xiao’s agitated heart.
She simply set up her easel, brought out her brush, and sat down to paint inside the space.
She painted through the night.
By the time she put down her sketchbook, daylight had arrived outside, and she could hear Ge Liutao preparing breakfast.
Despite having spent a sleepless night in the space, she was still brimming with energy, refreshed and clear-headed.
Chiang Xiao stored her paintbrush in her palm, stood up, stretched lazily, and after a bit of exercise, she stepped out of the space.
"Little, don’t you want to sleep a bit longer?" Ge Liutao was washing three eggs, ready to cook them in the porridge, and looked somewhat timid upon seeing Chiang Xiao.
Yesterday, Ge Liutao and Chiang Songhai could tell that Chiang Xiao was angry with them, but she didn’t know how to appease Chiang Xiao’s temper.
Chiang Xiao shook her head, carried her washbasin over, scooped a ladle of hot water from the pot into the courtyard, and mixed it with cold water to wash up.
She had too much to do today to waste time being angry.
After she finished washing up, she ran to her teacher’s house to personally request a week off.
Their homeroom teacher was Song Tianyang, a man not yet thirty, who had served in the military. After being discharged, he joined the Siyang Village Primary School as a substitute teacher.
Song Tianyang was startled when she asked for an entire week off.
Previously, Chiang Xiao never took any leave. No one loved studying more than her; she never wanted to miss a class, and her homework was always exceptionally neat and tidy. Moreover, she consistently ranked first in exams. So regardless of how the villagers viewed her, or how cruel the rumors about her mother were, Song Tianyang unchangingly admired this student.
Before Song Tianyang could inquire about the reason for her leave, Mother Song looked at her with pity and asked, "Chiang Family’s Young Lady, I heard your grandfather was injured?"
Chiang Xiao didn’t expect the news to spread so quickly. Caught off guard, she nodded.
Huang Yizhen certainly spread words swiftly. If Aunt Song was asking, she definitely also knew the reason behind Chiang Songhai’s injury.
She briefly clarified the situation and said to Song Tianyang, "Teacher Song, my grandmother is also unwell, and I need to take care of my grandfather. So, I have no choice but to ask for a few extra days off."
