After eating the watermelon, Song Ziming looked around the rose wall as he had nothing to do. In the end, he came over to have a discussion with Yunyu, “Xiao Yu’er, your rose grows so well. It would be a waste to let it climb the wall so casually. Why don’t I make a rack for it? I’ll build it next to the kitchen, just above the stone table and stone bench. When the roses have fully grown around the rack, it would be so relaxing to sit and drink tea underneath it on rainy days.”
The rose rack should be something like this
After saying so, he was itching in his heart. He also wanted such a quiet courtyard. It was very comfortable to think about it.
Yunyu said, “I don’t know how to make it.” None of the three women in their family had this skill. Yuncheng was also only a half-grown child, so it was even more hopeless to count on him.

She has also been very busy recently. She wanted to go to the village committee to ask about contracting the nearby barren hill.
She had almost a million on hand. With the spiritual spring, she would not lose money if she grew anything.
Song Ziming smiled and said, “There’s me here. I know how to build one. Isn’t there a big bamboo forest behind your house? I’ll go and chop some bamboo later to help you build a rack in the yard. How nice would it be to hide under the flower rack to enjoy the rain and snow in the future?.”
Yunyu immediately thanked him, “Thank you.”
She also really wanted a flower rack. When the roses grow all over the stand, this small courtyard would be very beautiful.
Song Ziming liked manual work. He had done some of the woodwork for Guiyuan Sect . Li Zhou did not know woodwork, so he let his junior brother cut bamboo to make a shelf himself. He accompanied Yunyu to the peach orchard to pick a lot of peaches. It was really delicious and he also wanted to bring some back for his master and junior sister. When he first arrived at the peach orchard, he saw an old lady working in the vegetable field next to it.
The land next to the orchard was dry land. Peanuts and soybeans were suitable to be planted. Yunyu remembered that the land belonged to Grandma Sun’s family.
Grandma Sun was a bit older. Her son and daughter-in-law worked in the city, and only came home on Sundays, leaving her little grandson Xu Xiaopeng at home to be taken care of by her. Her husband had already passed away a few years ago.
She lived right in front of Yunyu’s house, not too far away. Grandma Sun had a broken mouth and was an unreasonable person, and Yunyu did not like to interact with her.
Unexpectedly, Grandma Sun saw Yunyu leading a man to the peach orchard, so she came to join in the fun. She ran to the peach orchard and asked Yunyu, “Yunyu, who is this? Did you bring your boyfriend home?”

Li Zhou is thirty-two years old this year and has a calm temperament. When he heard this, he said: “Grandma, you misunderstood.”
Yunyu followed suit, “Yes, Grandma Sun, you misunderstood. He is not my friend. He is a guest of my family, here to buy peaches.”
Grandma Sun smiled and said, “Oh my, you’re shy. Grandma won’t spread it around. This young man seems nice, but he is quite older than you. However, the older ones do pamper their wives. When would y’all hold the wedding. Please remember to invite the lil’ old…”
Before she could finish speaking, Yunyu stared at her face for a few seconds. Her brows gradually frowned, and she said, “Grandma, where is your Xiaopeng?
Grandma Sun let out a surprised ‘ah’, “I took him along with me. He was playing next to me just now. That kid is very naughty and likes to run around.” Her family’s Xiaopeng was three years old and was very mischievous. Every time she brought him along while doing farm work, he could never sit still. He liked to run and play around, but he would not run off too far.
Yunyu’s face changed, “Grandma, something is wrong. Hurry up and find Xiaopeng.”
“The kid is just hiding around somewhere,” Granny Sun did not take what Yunyu said seriously.
Yunyu pointed to Grandma Sun’s face, “Grandma, I see that there is something wrong with your children’s palace. I feel you should still hurry up and look for Xiaopeng. If it’s any later, I’m afraid you will regret it.” The children’s palace on one’s face represents their grandchildren. There were some creases at Grandma Sun’s children’s palace. It was split into two parts and Yunyu was afraid something would happen to Grandma Sun’s grandson.

子女宫 Zǐnǚ gōng – Children Palace
“You brat! Watch what you say!” Grandma Sun got angry (T/N: Because it was like Yunyu was cursing her grandson).
Yunyu did not bother saying anything more. She turned and said to Li Zhou, “Mr. Li, please help me look around. It’s better to search around a body of water.”
As she spoke, she was already heading towards the woods. There was a pond there. In addition to the largest Qinghe Lake in Qinghe Village, there were quite a few ponds in the woods and there was even a stream in the mountains. The village had quite a few sources of water.
Yunyu ran towards the pond at the back of the woods. Grandma Sun looked around, but found no one. She gave it some thought and remembered that her little grandson usually liked playing in the woods. Thus, she hurriedly followed.
Passing through the woods, Yunyu soon found the pond. The water was muddy, and there were large pieces of duckweed floating on it, making the pond have an oily green sheen.
Duckweed
Yunyu saw a child floating in the center of the water at a glance. He was faced down and motionless. Her heart skipped a beat. Without even bothering to take off her shoes, she dived into the water.
Grandma Sun arrived after her and saw the faced down, motionless child in the middle of the water, wearing a yellow short sleeved shirt. It was her Xiaopeng. She let out a howl. Her face paled as she stumbled towards the pond, “Xiaopeng! My Xiaopeng!” Her voice was sharp and miserable, terrified and helpless.

Her voice was piercing. There were fields across the pond with farmers in the village working on them. They all ran over when they heard her cry.
Seeing the child in the pond, they were also startled, “Grandma Sun, is that your framily’s child? Dear god, what’s going on?”
Grandma Sun cried and collapsed on the ground.
Yunyu was very fast. The water in the middle of the pond only reached her lower abdomen. She managed to quickly carry the child ashore.
Li Zhou came later, seeing this situation, he hurriedly called the emergency number, and then stepped forward to check the child’s condition.
The child had already been laid flat on the ground by Yunyu. Grandma Sun cried and crawled over to hold the child in her arms.
“Let go!” Yunyu yelled, “Do you still want to save Xiaopeng’s life? Let go quickly. Let me see if he can still be saved.”
There were two or three villagers around, and they also chimed in, “Press his belly first. Let the child spit out the water. Look at his face. It’s blue. He must be suffering.”
Grandma Sun quickly let go, and did not dare to refute. Her mind was now blank.
Yunyu laid Xu Xiaopeng flat and observed his purplish blue face. She stretched out his hand and felt for his pulse and found that it was very weak. There was still a trace of life but he would not last till the ambulance arrived.
She stretched out her hands and pressed heavily on the child’s acupuncture points. She made a handseal and recited a mantra, “The heaven is dark and the earth yellow (T/N: From the Book of Changes 易经 yì jīng). Exorcism and enchantment (T/N: From Pure Mind Mantra 净心神咒 Jìng xīnshén zhòu). Let evil and filth dissipate (T/N: From the Pure Heaven and Earth Mantra 净天地神咒 Jìng tiāndì shén zhòu). Three souls and six souls, return quickly.”

As soon as the words fell, the child spit out a lot of dirty water. Yunyu was afraid that not all the water came out, so she pressed on the child’s abdomen, letting him slowly spit out all the dirty water. After being in a state of hypoxic for a long time, the child must have felt very uncomfortable so he started crying. However, the blue tint on his face slowly faded away.
Grandma Sun was stunned by this turn of events. She looked at Yunyu in shock and awe. Her mouth trembled and she did not dare to speak.
The villagers who stood nearby were also frightened, looking at Yunyu without daring to make a sound.
Seeing that the child was fine, Yunyu raised her head and said to Granny Sun, “Fortunately, the child is still alive. Otherwise even a Da Luo Immortal (T/N: 大罗神仙 dà luó shén xiān – the highest level of cultivation that Taoists practitioners aim to achieve) would not be able to save him. Grandma, please be careful in the future. The child is too young and doesn’t know better. There is a lot of duckweed in the pond and the sides are slippery. If the child slipped into the water he would not be able to climb up himself.”
“I know, I know. I won’t dare leave him alone anymore.” Grandma Sun finally cried loudly with the child in her arms, and Xiaopeng was also coughing while crying.
The child was rescued, but the ambulance still had not arrived after all this time. So, Grandma Sun took Xiaopeng to the village first to wait for the ambulance.
The villagers saw that her feet were soft when she walked, so they helped her to go back.
Yunyu didn’t join in the fun. She was wet and had to go back to change.
Speaking of which, she saved two lives today.
When this kind of thing happened, and Yunyu happened to be aware of it, it was impossible for her to stand by and do nothing. Otherwise, it would damage her merits (T/N: 阴德 yīn dé – good deeds done in the world that can be credited in the underworld. Google translate says that it’s ‘yin’ virtue and I’m not sure if it’s merits but It seems like it is merits). Furthermore, she herself would not leave the child for death if she saw him dying.
Back at Yun’s house, Song Ziming was still happily cutting bamboo. He was meticulous in his work. Since he was doing it, he had to do his best. The rack built should be pretty.
Seeing Yunyu come back wet, he raised his eyebrows and said, “What happened to you?”
Yunyu said, “I jumped into the pond. I’ll go into the house and change my clothes. Mr. Li, you can pour some water for yourself. Don’t be courteous.”
Song Ziming said, “Senior brother, you don’t need to pour water. Just drink from the well. I found that the well water in Xiao Yu’er‘s house is also very sweet.”
Yunyu went into the house to take a bath and change her clothes. She really had fate with her bathroom today. From picking peaches in the morning to saving the black dog and then the child, she had already bathed three times.
While taking a bath, Yunyu looked at her belly in the bath mirror. Her belly was still flat. She was pregnant with a baby, yet she had no reaction towards it. She remembered that her best friend vomited when she was pregnant. She even asked the imperial doctor in the palace to take a look but it was of no help. In the end, Yunyu had to give her an anti-vomiting talisman for her to get better.
After she took a shower, she went out. Song Ziming also learned what had happened from Li Zhou, and praised Yunyu for being a kind and lovely girl.
Yunyu gave him a blank look and told him to work quickly.
On the other side, Grandma Sun was waiting for the ambulance at the intersection with her grandson in her arms. She also called her son and daughter-in-law on the way.
She couldn’t not call them. Afterall, her grandson fell into the pond and almost drowned. Several villagers saw it, and the matter would definitely spread across the village. If her daughter-in-law heard of it from others when she came back, she would definitely go crazy. It was better to call her now and tell the truth. Afterall, she was really frightened by the situation. If something had really happened to her little grandson, she wouldn’t have the will to live on.
Grandma Sun trembled when she thought about it. The matter left a scar on her and she no longer dared to leave the child alone like that again.
When the ambulance arrived, Grandma Sun called her son and daughter-in-law. When the son and daughter-in-law found out, they were so frightened that they immediately asked for leave and came back with weak legs.
Grandma Sun took the child to the hospital in the town first. The paramedic in the ambulance heard what had happened and could not help but sigh thinking, ‘This kind of thing happens every year everywhere. But some people feel that it has nothing to do with them and don’t take note of it. Only when something happens that they regret it. This child was considered lucky. He was found and rescued. However, we don’t know how severe the hypoxia is. If the boy was affected by it, it could really destroy a family.’

When they arrived at the hospital, as Grandma Sun carried the child for a checkup, she ran into Zhao Jinhua from the village in the lobby. She was covered in blood and looked like she had been beaten.
