It’s just, she doesn’t know where she can find potatoes here.
It seems that she has to go to the market in the town tomorrow to look.

After eating dinner, Bai Zhi and Zhao Lan returned to the cabin house. After washing, Zhao Lan lie down next to Bai Zhi and ask: “Zhi’er, you said earlier that you want to plant something else. What kind of plant is it?”
Bai Zhi yawned and replied: “Let me figure it out first, you will know tomorrow.”
Zhao Lan pinched Bai Zhi’s little face and said in a bit angry way: “Niang is also trying to figure it out, you have no conscience.”
Bai Zhi smiled, turned around and nestled on Zhao Lan’s side. She took a deep breath and said: “Smells good.”
Zhao Lan glared at her daughter, but her lips were curving into a smile: “I know you have a sweet mouth.”
Looking at her daughter’s lovely face, Zhao Lan suddenly remembered the jade ornament that was hanging on Old Lady Bai’s neck during this morning. She was a bit hesitant. Should she tell her daughter about it?
If she tells her about it, will she rush to the Bai Family to take it? Will they encounter another incident?
“Niang, what’s wrong with you? Do you have something to say?”
Zhao Lan thinks for a moment and then decided to tell her daughter about it. After all, it belongs to her. It may be related to her real identity. Her daughter has the right to now.
“Zhi’er, niang never hide you about your early life.”
Bai Zhi nodded her head: “I know, I was picked up by father from the mountain. And then, you two gave me a home.”
Zhao Lan continued to say: “Zhi’er, in the Bai Family earlier, when the old lady took out the key, have you seen the jade ornament hanging on her neck?”
Bai Zhi nodded her head: “I saw it, it looks very nice, what about it?”
Zhao Lan sighed, all the memories from 12 years ago appeared in her mind. At that time, Bai Zhi was not born for too long. She only looked like less than half a year old child. She looked very weak but cute. However, a cruel person throws her in the wilderness. If Bai Sanzhu didn’t pass by in the mountain, she will definitely fall under the hands of the wild beast.
In the place where she was found, there were several Bai Zhi flowers, so Bai Sanzhu named her after that.
From her wrapped clothes, there was a piece of jade ornament. When Bai Sanzhu saw it, he knows it was not something ordinary people could have. If the greedy Bai Family saw it, they will definitely take it away. So, he secretly hides. It’s just, she also doesn’t know where he hides it.
Later on, Bai Sanzhu fell on the roof. At first, she thought there was no serious problem with him. Because he didn’t tell her anything. However, his condition suddenly deteriorated. He didn’t get a chance to tell her about it. He passed away.
Zhao Lan’s tears couldn’t help but fall as she was telling the past event to Bai Zhi. Even though so many years has past, she still can’t forget her husband.
Even if there was only one meal in the table, he will give everything to her and Bai Zhi.
Although he was poor and have no voice in the Bai Family, he was a good husband and a good father. That’s why she always hated herself. Why can’t she give him a child? Fortunately, after Bai Zhi arrived, their life gradually filled with laughter. It’s just this laughter didn’t last long.
All these precious memories are what drove Zhao Lan to work hard all these years.
Bai Zhi’s eyes also got wet in tears. It must because she was a doctor and saved a lot of people’s lives, that’s why she met such a kind mother.
Bai Zhi hugged Zhao Lan tightly, she tried had to hold back tears and said: “Niang, thank you, I’m thankful to you and father. You two gave me chance to live, gave me a home, and let me experience what a real family is. Niang, I will always be your daughter. That jade ornament? If the Bai Family wants it, let them take it. My real family abandoned me, so why should I go and look for them? I have you, and that is enough for me.”
