The true heiress of metaphysics travels back to the 1970s and recognizes her father, a high-ranking

Jiang Muyan didn't have much of a concept of money. Even back in modern times, she didn't know exactly how much wealth she had. She felt that as long as she had enough money to eat and wear, that was enough!

But it wouldn't be good for her not to accept Zhang Qiuyan's money, just as Zhang Qiuyan said, their fortune telling is all about cause and effect.

She helped Zhang Qiuyan's son avoid disaster, which could be considered as revealing a heavenly secret and altering the trajectory of his fate. If she didn't charge a fee, this unexpected cause and effect would not benefit Zhang Qiuyan's son at all.

Two large bills, not too many or too few in this era, are enough to understand the cause and effect!

Seeing that Jiang Muyan was only willing to accept two bills, Zhang Qiuyan felt even more grateful and respectful.

She wanted to express her heartfelt gratitude a few more times, but Jiang Muyan, who was never used to such formalities, interrupted her with a smile:

"Comrade Zhang, I still need to go and buy some things, so I won't chat any longer. Your son's ordeal is over, and everything will surely go smoothly from now on."

"Really?" Zhang Qiuyan's eyes lit up with surprise as she stared intently at Jiang Muyan. Jiang Muyan nodded firmly before taking the opportunity to say goodbye to Zhang Qiuyan.

After leaving the office, Jiang Muyan thought for a moment and, since she had nothing else to do, decided to find a guesthouse to stay in first.

She searched through the original owner's memories and found that there was a guesthouse near the bus station, so she slowly walked towards it.

As she approached the guesthouse, she took out a small bag of clothes from her mustard seed bag.

She couldn't go to the countryside empty-handed. She could put large items like quilts in a bag and pretend to buy them when she arrived, but it was too unusual for her not to bring even a change of clothes.

Carrying her clothes, Jiang Muyan walked into the guesthouse and handed her a letter of introduction to the cashier.

"Judging from your letter of introduction, you're going to the countryside as an educated youth?" The staff member looked Jiang Muyan up and down, a hint of pity in his eyes.

Jiang Muyan nodded, "Mm!"

"Then why did you decide to stay at the guesthouse instead of at home?" The staff member looked at Jiang Muyan's clothes with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.

Jiang Muyan was still wearing the clothes that the original owner had worn with patches, so it's no wonder the staff became suspicious.

She smiled and explained:

"My home is quite far from here, and I'm worried I won't be able to leave in time tomorrow, so I'm planning to stay here for the night."

The staff member thought to himself: There's no need to waste money like this.

Although she thought this in her heart, she didn't say it aloud. She helped Jiang Muyan check in without making a sound, and watching Jiang Muyan's back as she walked towards the room, she couldn't help but shake her head—it would be better to save the money to buy clothes instead of staying here.

Jiang Muyan didn't care what the staff member was thinking. She took out her key, opened the room the staff member had shown her, and saw a small bed, about 1.2 meters wide, and a very small window, making the room somewhat dark. However, she was only staying for one night, so she wasn't too picky.

She first took out the toiletries she had just bought that day and laid them out for use that evening and the next morning. Then she took out a watch from her storage bag, a style similar to those of the era, and put it on.

In modern times, she was used to checking the time on her phone, so she found it quite strange not being able to know the time at any time here.

Fortunately, her senior sister was very thoughtful and bought her a lot of watches, some of which were even sourced from overseas, bought simply because she thought they looked nice. However, she can't use those trendy watches yet, and can only wear some more "understated" ones for the time being.

Her senior sister thoughtfully prepared enough sanitary napkins and overnight pants for her to last a lifetime, probably because she was worried that if she traveled to a place like ancient times, she wouldn't have anywhere to buy these things.

After putting on her watch, Jiang Muyan began packing her things for the train journey the next day. Once she was done, she used a cleaning talisman to thoroughly clean the guesthouse room and replaced the sheets and pillows with new ones she had just bought that day.

It was summer, so there was no need for a heavy blanket. But since the area was by the sea, the nights weren't too hot, so Jiang Muyan took out a thin blanket from her mustard seed bag and prepared it.

After finishing all that, Jiang Muyan lay down on the bed, intending to take a nap.

------------

Meanwhile, things weren't as peaceful for Jiang Muyan at the Jiang family's side. Jiang Yucheng had been cursed for some unknown reason today. First, on his way to work, he inexplicably fell off a ladder and broke his arm.

He made a quick check-up at a nearby traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy and then rushed back to the machinery factory to ask Director Zhang for leave. But Director Zhang, who had previously been quite warm to him, suddenly became cold towards him.

When he asked for leave, he was simply told to rest at home without any explanation of how much leave he would get. This is considered a work-related injury, but Director Zhang didn't mention whether he would receive any salary while at home.

Looking at Director Zhang's cold face, he didn't dare to ask. He wondered if Director Zhang already knew about Jiang Muyan's assignment to the countryside as an educated youth, which was why he was being so cold to him.

Just as he was feeling anxious and worried that he might lose his job, a colleague rushed over and said that he had a phone call.

Jiang Yucheng didn't know who would call him at this moment. He glanced at Director Zhang, whose expression was still indifferent, gritted his teeth, gave Director Zhang a fawning smile, said a few nice words, and then ran to the duty room to answer the phone.

He had just picked up the microphone when he heard Liu Fangmei's voice, trembling with tears, come through:

"Honey... Husband, hurry home and get the money... Come to the hospital! Our son hurts his leg!"

"What?!" Jiang Yucheng's voice trembled with shock. "What happened? Weren't you at the hospital getting your arm set? How did Tianci get his leg injured?!"

"Don't ask anymore, go home and get the money! We'll talk when you get here!" Liu Fangmei was afraid that every minute of conversation would cost more in phone charges, so she quickly finished speaking and hung up the phone.

"Feed? Feed?" Jiang Yucheng shouted into the microphone twice, but all that came through the receiver was a busy signal.

His hand holding the microphone trembled uncontrollably. The sharp pain in his arm made him gasp, but at that moment he couldn't care less about the pain in his arm. All he could think about was his son's injured leg, and he just wanted to get home as soon as possible to get the money.

Jiang Yucheng didn't ride his bike to work today. There's a bicycle at home. This morning, Liu Fangmei took her son to the hospital to deal with the arm that Jiang Muyan dislocated yesterday.

He was initially hesitant to let them ride bikes, but Jiang Tianci insisted on showing off, saying he could carry his mother on one arm.

Now that he thought about it, could it be that his son fell off his bike? Jiang Yucheng became more and more anxious, and his pace quickened as he ran home.

He stumbled home and rummaged through the house, finding only a few dozen yuan—all the money he had left after giving it to Jiang Muyan. Clutching the money, he rushed to the hospital, panting and sweating profusely.

Upon arriving at the hospital and seeing Jiang Yucheng, Liu Fangmei rushed over as if she had found a lifeline, crying out:

"Honey, the doctor said... the doctor said Tianci's leg has severed a major artery and he needs emergency surgery! He also said... he also said that if we hadn't come any later, he might not have been able to save his leg!"
