nd she choked out,"Ziyi, I understand. Don't worry, I won't bother you anymore."After finishing, she covered her face and ran away.Yang Ziyi's raised hand remained suspended in mid-air, his eyes follo...The ripple once again glided smoothly into a body. After taking control of the body, she heard a low voice in her ear:
"Miss, after you return to the manor this time, you'll be able to live a good life. I told you, the Marquis has been thinking about you all these years."
Looking at the young girl across from her, dressed in plain cotton clothes, Lianyi frowned. She disliked the calculating glint in the girl's eyes.
Perhaps because the girl was too thin, her cheekbones were a bit prominent, and coupled with her dark skin, she gave off a sharp impression. It's just because she's young that people overlook it.
"Don't say anything more, don't let anyone hear."
Ripple's voice was soft, and she gave the little girl a knowing look. She also glanced at the closed car door. Just now, she had felt bumps along the way. She and the little girl were sitting in a speeding carriage.
The little girl seemed to realize something, immediately covering her mouth and becoming quiet.
Ripples feigned meditation, beginning to receive the memories of the original body.
The protagonist was a young lady from the noble Xue family, who shared her birth with an identical twin sister. However, in the Da Huan Dynasty, twins were considered an ominous sign. Therefore, to avoid angering the Marquis, after their birth, Mrs. Xue secretly sent the protagonist away.
Originally, the House Madam had already decided to make the original body "disappear." However, on the second day after she gave birth, a Taoist priest came to the door asking for water. After drinking, he said that the young miss of the Marquis's family would have a calamity when she turned eighteen and that it could only be warded off by someone who was not related by blood. After saying this, the Taoist priest left, thus repaying the favor of the bowl of water.
People in the Great Huan Dynasty still believed in Taoism very much, so this word was passed on to the head nurse by her. Looking at her daughter swaddled in cloths, Madam Hou immediately thought of the original owner. Therefore, she decided to keep this eldest daughter after all, because she would use her to protect her younger daughter from disasters.
Thus, even when the original body was still a baby, it was sent far away to the manor and given a wet nurse and servants. To ensure that the eldest daughter could ward off misfortune for the younger daughter when she turned eighteen, the eldest daughter had to stay alive. Therefore, Madam Hou would frequently send people to check on the original body's situation. Because of this, the eldest daughter grew up healthy and without any illnesses.
After the original body stood up at six years old, Madam Hou rarely sent anyone to see her anymore. This made the servants in the village gradually relax. The six-year-old original body lived a life of hunger one day and fullness the next, and even caught a cold during the winter when she was robbed of her cotton clothes and bedding by a servant.
The original person had a high fever for three days that wouldn't go away, and he also fell into a coma. Only then did the servants in Zhuangzi realize something was wrong. They immediately returned to the city at night to invite a doctor.
Unfortunately, the doctor's servant was seen by the steward of the Marquis' mansion, who then informed his mistress, the Marchioness.
Yao Guanjia's wife is the manager of Hou Fu's small kitchen. She has been worried about not having an excuse to climb up the ranks, and upon hearing the news, she immediately went to tell her mistress.
Although she didn't know who lived on the estate, Madam Hou seemed to value them highly. After all, she used to send people to check on them every few years. These past two years, however, she hasn't been as involved, but the money was still withdrawn from the accounts on time.
Old Mrs. Yao didn't know the inside story, but Old Manager Yao did, so he was the first to tell Old Mrs. Yao to go and spread the word.
When Lady Hou heard Yao Pozi's words, her eyelids twitched. She immediately arranged a capable mama to go to the estate to check the situation and also took the family doctor with her.
Wangfu Yi was a strict doctor, only focusing on treating illnesses and avoiding any other involvement. When he arrived at the estate, he saw the original owner, emaciated and clinging to life. Wangfu immediately used all his skills to snatch the original owner back from the clutches of death.
When Lady Wait patiently learned about the incident, she was so angry that she smashed a set of teacups right there. In her eyes, her eldest daughter was raised to be a lucky charm for her youngest daughter, and no matter what, she was still her daughter. A group of servants actually dared to mistreat her own daughter - that was simply unacceptable.
Frau Hou, in a fit of rage, had those wicked servants beaten to death with clubs. All the maidservants who served around her were sold off, and they were all sent to work in the pickle factories.
Lady Hou's actions made everyone on the estate realize that even though the original body was unpopular, she was still a member of the Hou family. Those who had ill intentions learned their lesson from her example.
After the original body woke up, Madam Hou still didn't appear. However, a new batch of servants served the original body. The only difference was that the original body's public identity had become the illegitimate son of Madam Hou's distant cousin.
Because both parents had passed away, to avoid suspicion she could only be raised in the manor. She waited until she was of age before being given in marriage, which is considered a kind and just act by Lady Hou.
That's how the original lived smoothly until she was eighteen years old. And after that high fever, she didn't remember much about what happened before she was seven. When she turned eighteen, she was taken back to the An Ding Hou Mansion and met her biological mother and sister.
Looking at her younger sister's face, which was strikingly similar to her own, the original owner realized that she was also a young lady of the Marquis's mansion. But when she looked at the difference between them, she felt ashamed for a moment. Even though her sister was ill, she was still so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off her.
Yes, the original body's younger sister fell ill, and it was getting worse. She couldn't even marry the son of the Minister of War. At this time, Madam Hou thought of her other daughter who wasn't raised by her side. Wasn't this a ready-made substitute!
Her younger sister was seriously ill. She knew that if she didn't let her elder sister marry in her place, she would lose the chance to get married. If word got out that she was lying sick in bed, it would be even harder for her to find a good marriage. After all, she was a young lady from a marquis's family and naturally wouldn't want to marry down.
And when the time came for her doppelganger to step in, the original's younger sister cried tears of pear blossoms, declaring she was willing to give this good marriage to the original as compensation. The only reason the original could marry under this identity was because Xue Lianyi’s name had been used at the betrothal.
The original wife was only eighteen years old and had always been raised on the estate. Although she could read and write, she had only read books about obedience and propriety. Moreover, lacking her mother's guidance, she had never left the estate at such a mature age, so naturally, she lacked worldly experience and felt somewhat inferior. With such a good opportunity for marriage, she readily accepted it.
The original person stayed at the Hou residence for half a year before being married to Lin Yaozhu under the name Xue Lianyi.
After marriage, she and Lin Yaizu were considered harmonious. Although her personality was somewhat cautious, she didn't make any major mistakes. Besides, she didn't want to compete with the Lady Shangshu for control of the household affairs, which made the Lady Shangshu treat her rather peacefully.
In fact, the original person didn't understand these things at all. No one taught her how to manage a household, and she herself didn't have this awareness. She only wholeheartedly wanted to follow Lin Yaozhu like a devoted wife.
Unfortunately, two years later, the original body's belly was still quiet. This made the madam's face increasingly worse. However, thankfully, Xue Lianyi's identity was there, so she couldn't put women into her son's room. After all, before the main wife gave birth to a legitimate son, concubines were not allowed to become pregnant. asked back."Of course not, I was just curious and asked out of the blue."Wang Yaozu immediately said, his shoulder wounded by arrows hadn't healed yet, only staying by Lian Yi's side did he feel safe...
