...***...
I've been in this age for two days, it's been really hard. I can't go anywhere. I just spent my time longer inside the space bracelet to study some martial arts and alchemists.
I could see my face in the mirror, still my old face but more dull and unkempt. I'm trying to take beauty pills and intend to buy some ingredients to make a natural mask like in modern times.
"Xio Xia,"
"What's wrong, miss?"
"I want to go, do we have money?" ask her.
"Actually every month in each pavilion will be given a ration of 3 taels of gold miss. However madam Yan had only given to the 1 tael silver lotus pavilion alone all this time,"
"What a wicked stepmother. But it's okay, I'm gonna make a lot of money,"
Xio Xia just silently looked at me, maybe he was surprised to see me like that.
"Take me to the market, I want to buy something" I asked him after putting a veil on my face.
"But miss, madam Yan will be angry if she finds out that she left this residence," Xio Xia knelt down trying to thwart my intentions.
"Just calm down, we're not gonna get caught,"
I led him towards the back of the lotus pavilion. There was a secret door in accordance with Fei Wei's memory.
When he was a kid, he used to go out there. It turned out that he used to be quite naughty hahahaha.
We have arrived at a market that is quite crowded, "not bad either" I thought while looking at a market that is not much different from in modern times.
I started looking for some ingredients to make my beloved pills. Although the quality in this market is not too high, but it is okay if mixed with holy water.
"Hey did you guys hear, he said yesterday a strange sound coming from the sacred forest"
I heard one of the guys talking to his friend.
"Yes, that's terrible. Although it was full of herbs, but the spirit beast was terrifying. No one dared to go in there"
"Holy forest? Is it like in novels?" thought glaring.
"Xio Xia, let's eat first, I really want to taste the food in this market"
"Neither miss"
We headed to one of the food shops which was quite crowded. When I was about to order I saw a 10-year-old boy and a 5-year-old girl crying near the store holding her stomach.
"Xio Xia, order first 4 servings yes, I want to go there first"
"Why so many girls? We're just the two of us?"
"Order it"
After getting a nod from Xio Xia, I headed towards the two little ones.
"Hey sweet girl, why are you crying?"
I saw a look of fear emanating in the little girl's eyeball.
Their already very dirty clothes with messy appearance made me guess if they were not lucky children.
"We're starving miss, my sister hasn't eaten since this morning either" explained the boy as he hugged his sister who was still crying.
"You're hungry, you happen to have food, come with brother. "
At first they were hesitant, but I convinced them that they wanted to come with me into the store.
Just as we arrived, the food that Xio Xia ordered arrived as well.
“You can eat until you are full, quiet brother who will pay for it."
At first they had to eat the food in front of them, but because they were too hungry, they slowly began to enjoy it.
"Oh yeah, where are your parents?" ask them.
"Our parents are dead, brother,"
"Where did you get your money? Where's your house?"
"We live on the edge of a sacred forest. Every day I collect herbs on the edge of the sacred forest and sell them on the market for 2 silver coins to some traders.”
The truth is they sold it for 2 silver coins, while the price of the herb plant here the cheapest was 10 silver coins. They are cruel to these children.
"Can you visit your house? Brother wants to see the sacred forest up close." said I who was replied by a nod by ARong
We ate while listening to their stories.

When they arrived at their home, they saw a building that was not too big but comfortable enough to be empathized.
"Are you really just two here?"
I put some ingredients that we had previously bought before here. I also bought them a pair of clothes.
"Sister, we're just two here"
"So, I love to play with A Li here"
The little girl named A Li was smilingly staring at her brother A Rong. I could see the radiance of happiness in their eyes, even though they were only two.
“Then, let's help sister to embeleskn this groceries. Later accompany brother to walk around for a while at your home.”
After taking care of the ingredients and some of their items, A Rong and A Li took us around. In this area all the houses seem far apart. Behind A Rong's house is directly adjacent to the sacred forest. That's where he often collects herbs that thrive. I can see some plants like flow grass, war flowers, and others.
“A Rong A Li, Brother Fei and Brother Xia must go home now, thank you for allowing us to wander around in your house.
"We should be thanking all of you for feeding us.” A Rong said sincerely.
“It's okay, and here take these 1 gold coin as your handle in case something happens. And remember my message, do not sell herbs again at a cheap price. Sell for 5 silver coins, understand?”
"Okay, I'll remember"
"Good, tomorrow big brother will be in the market again, if he comes to the store at 10 am" A Rong nodded his head in understanding, they waved their hands to go.
I and Xio Xia returned to the residence of Jendra Lu past the secret door near the lotus pavilion.
Fei Wei noticed the bright blue ring embedded in her index finger, “Xio Xia, incin what space
this?”
“Absponding miss, the space ring in the closet is a high space ring with a capacity of 200 thousand items and 1 million taels of gold. The ring is worth 1,000 taels of gold that has been with the lady since she was 8 years old.”
“Wah, it turns out that this space ring is very expensive. Are there any other valuables in my pavilion?”
“No miss, all items in the lotus pavilion are arranged by Ms. Yan. He only put some low quality items in the place of the lady, even the clothes that are glued to the lady are just a few, even then there is nothing high quality.”
How outrageous that stepmother is. I'll make him return all his treatment slowly.
“From anywhere you are!” a waitress I knew named waitress Zu shocked me. She is the personal servant of Lady Yan.
"We just took a walk in the park, what's up?" ask me with a calm face so that he does not suspect.
"You guys are summoned to the Moon pavilion, General Lu wants to meet you. If it wasn't for Madame Yan calling you, I wouldn't have stepped foot in this pavilion."
I saw his face which showed a look of disgust and dislike for me, wanting to hit him in the face. How dare he go to General Lu's first daughter.
"Alright we'll be there," Xio Xia replied with great caution. It was obvious that there was fear on his face.
We walked towards the Moon pavilion, the pavilion that previously belonged to my mother which now belonged to Madam Yan.
