Chapter 2008: Chapter 2008: The Decoration is Really Nice

"Those people, they truly deserve to die!"

Upon hearing her words, Granny Chang couldn’t help but curse.

Lin Changhong: "..."

Girl, is it really okay for you to spout such nonsense? It would be more likely for her to beat me than my sister. Is this something their mother would do?

However, he also couldn’t voice this thought and continued to hold it back.

"Young lady, don’t worry. I’ve lived here for many years now. If your father were here, I guarantee that I would find him for you. For now, rest assured and stay with me. I’ll go out and ask around later," Granny Chang promised Lin Caisang, patting her chest confidently.

The crowd: "..."

Well, Granny Chang has been thoroughly deceived by their family’s matriarch. She truly believes she’s a girl of fifteen or twenty and even calls herself ’big sister.’

"Thank you, big sister," Lin Caisang hastily expressed her gratitude, then looked up and caught Zimo’s eye, her gaze brimming with triumph.

Zimo smiled helplessly, his eyes filled with indulgence.

...

Granny Chang’s house appeared from the outside to be a modestly-sized thatched cottage.

However, once Lin Caisang and the others entered, they discovered that the interior was really well-decorated, far better than the dwellings of the Yue Clan.

"Young lady, you can stay in the west wing. Since there are many of you, you can’t each have a separate room, so two people per room will have to do," Granny Chang pointed out to the west wing and said.

There weren’t many rooms in her house, as people here rarely had visitors. At most, her acquaintances, who all had their own families, would visit during the day and return home at night.

Throughout the year, there might be those who came to gather medicinal herbs and would occasionally stay for a night.

But since she moved here over forty years ago, the house, after being built, rarely had any guests. She didn’t wish to let strangers stay.

Of course, she got along with this young lady, so allowing them to stay temporarily was fine.

"Thank you so much, big sister," Lin Caisang said with gratitude.

"What’s there to thank for? Helping others is helping yourself," Granny Chang laughed.

"By the way, my surname is Chang, and around here, everyone calls me Granny Chang. From now on, you can just call me Auntie Chang."

Although this young lady’s words were truly sweet and she loved to be called young by others, she couldn’t forget her age and couldn’t afford to become a laughing stock.

"Alright, Auntie Chang," Lin Caisang responded immediately.

"Auntie Chang, I’ve noticed there’s no one else around. Do they usually not stay at home?" she asked.

Looking out at the boundless fields of medicinal herbs, she could barely make out another house in the distant haze. She assumed that these people all lived together.

"How could that be?"

Granny Chang laughed upon hearing her puzzled question.

"This entire area of medicinal gardens, several miles around, belongs to just me. I’ve been living alone in my household ever since I came to the Illusion Continent. I’ve never married."

In fact, it wasn’t that she hadn’t married; it was that she couldn’t marry.

When she first arrived, she was indeed very young, just fifteen, and also quite beautiful.

But at that time, being penniless, no family wanted to marry a woman who didn’t have a penny to her name and had come from the barren lands. So, out of necessity, she came to this place to survive.
