Chapter 2: Engagement (2)
Chapter 2 Engagement (2)
This sound, it seems to be... Mama Zhong?
"Hmph! You are the only one who is diligent!" The delicate maid stomped her feet and dragged her companion away.
"It's outrageous!" Mother Zhong opened the curtain and came in. After placing the medicine bowl in her hand on the table, she was shocked when she found that the bed was empty! Then he saw his young lady sitting in front of the bronze mirror, and he let out a long sigh of relief.
"Miss, are you awake? Why don't you put on any clothes?" As she spoke, she took a cotton jacket and put it on for Ning Yue.
Ning Yue looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and then at Mother Zhong who was also much younger. She still couldn't believe what she saw: "You... pinch me."
Mother Zhong was taken aback: "Huh?"
"Forget it, I will pinch myself." Ning Yue said, and she pinched her face severely.
Hiss!
It hurts!
It's not a dream, she has really become smaller, and Mother Zhong is also visibly younger.
She put down her hand, stared at the lines on her palm for a while, and asked in a daze, "Mother Zhong, what year is this year?"
Mother Zhong saw that the lady was not quite right, so she quickly touched her forehead, but it didn't feel hot, and then said: "Xiliang is 210 years old, why did the lady suddenly ask this?"
In the 210th year of Xiliang, her fate took a major turning point.
This year, she was hired as the wife of Xiliang No. 1 waste wood in exchange for her second sister marrying Xiliang No. 1 general.
This year, she got rid of Prince Yin's relatives and completely offended the Zhongshan Prince's Mansion.
This year, she was forced out of the house by her concubine, and ran into the man who became a catastrophe in her life.
This year, in order to find her, my mother slipped out of the yard in the middle of the night, fell into the water and drowned.
This year, my father was shocked by the bad news. He rushed back from the border in the snow, was attacked halfway, and was shot dead by the enemy with random arrows...
All the tragedies in her life began in this year. Maybe it was God's eyes, maybe it was because she deserved to die, but she came back intact before the tragedy happened!
Since this is the case, she will never waste the opportunity that God gave her!
Kill those who should be killed, protect those who should be guarded, and take back what belongs to her. From today on, she will let the roulette of fate spin in her hands!
…
After drinking the medicine and chatting with Mother Zhong for a while, Ning Yue roughly understood her situation. She wasn't reborn before everything happened, at least, the marriage negotiations had already begun. It's just the beginning, it will take at least half a year from Hegeng post to next appointment. These six months should be enough for her to change her parents and her own destiny.
"Mother Zhong, how is my mother now? Is she still delirious?"
Mother Zhong sighed: "Yes, I went to see it a few days ago, and it's still the same."
Ning Yue was silent.
In fact, she didn’t get along with her mother very much. Although her mother was the first wife of her father Ming Mei, she became crazy after her elder brother passed away. She didn’t seem to know anyone except her father.
I heard from a servant that once when my mother was bathing her, she forgot to add cold water, which almost scalded her to death.
That year, she was three years old.
After that, she was carried out of her mother's yard.
Niangqin came to her several times, and each time stole her away and hid her in her closet.
Once it was winter, she peed in the closet and her mother didn't change her pants. She developed a high fever and almost died.
Since then, Mother has been locked up.
She, like everyone else, once suspected that her mother was a complete lunatic. It was not until her mother died looking for her that she realized that no matter how crazy or stupid a mother is, she will always remember her child.
Now, halfway through November, there are only ten days left before my mother's death.
This time, she wants to avoid the tragedy from the source!
