Chapter II: The Rise to Life
"If you know, then so be it. As your servants, we shouldn't ask about your matters, but as people of the crown prince's residence, we know different things from the others. We played a huge game of chess last night!" It's just that no matter what happens outside, we can still return to the side of the Willow Consort, no! [The Crown Princess went to the Crown Princess's side. She promised us that she would.]
At this point, Jadeite seemed rather pleased.
"But she .."
"Don't worry, she wasn't really a princess of Yan Country. I heard that she was picked up from a marquis' residence and sent over as a gift at the last minute just for her face."
Chu Yuehua's lips slowly started bleeding, and then there was more and more blood coming out. A strong stench of blood was coming out from her stomach, then her throat, which could not be stopped, started spewing out blood.
She had heard everything they had said. Was that the truth?
No wonder the eight maidservants he married had all died within the two years he had been here. Afterwards, everyone in the room had changed. Normally, nothing could be seen. But today, he realized that none of them were his own people.
But she was confused for four years.
However, this wasn't what hurt her the most.
The most unacceptable thing was, had he really planned all this last night? Was it to make that girl the Crown Prince's consort? And they loved each other?
She really seemed about to ask.
He opened his mouth, but other than more black blood coming out, there was no sound at all.
Chu Yuehua tried her best to open her eyes, but all she saw was the blue sky and the fallen Yulan tree.
He explained that when the year came, he had her sit under a tree and he wanted to draw a picture of her.
"Praise .."
After much effort, he finally managed to spit out a word, but his body began to spasm uncontrollably.
Why, why did he do this to her? She had always been working hard. She had always tried very hard to be a cousin and a consort. Why did this happen?
She hated him!
When he opened his eyes again, he felt a chill on his forehead.
His heavy breathing immediately roused Du Ruo who was beside him, "Miss, you have a nightmare again? Not afraid! Miss, we're not afraid, but Du Ruo is here! "
Looking at the dark green account book, Chu Yuehua didn't look at Du Ruo, but slowly pulled herself out of the dream.
And the cold voice of the emerald.
As well as the man dressed in black, with his back against the light.
"Yue Er!" A young girl in a dress came rushing in. "Another nightmare?"
"Sis!" Taking Du Ruo's hand, Chu Yuehua sat up. Looking at her still young sister in front of her, she felt an indescribably strange feeling in her heart. "Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu .."
She had been reborn just like that, at the age of eleven.
"From the looks of it, what should we do?" The old lady's birthday is coming up in a few days. I'm really worried that my body won't be able to take it if you continue acting like this! " Chu Xuohua was worried, but he couldn't help but say angrily, "Next time, you have to stay far away from Ruyi, it's better to just follow Ruxin and get closer!"
Ru Yun was Eldest Uncle's direct daughter and she was young. Eldest Aunt, Lady Li, and her two elder cousins doted on her very much, so she had always been a bit domineering. She had always been similar in age to Chu Yuehua.
This time, she pushed the vase on top of the treasure pavilion down and left the vase lying on top of the bed for a month.
As for Zhou Ruxin, she was Second Uncle's daughter, and she wasn't any good person, but on the surface, he wouldn't make things difficult for her.
The two sisters had died when they were young and were raised in the ancestral home. The ancestral home had a large family and a large population. The mother had married her father as the eldest daughter of the Duke of Guo's family.
As such, Chu Xuohua was usually very cautious, and his words today could be said to have angered him.
Seeing his sister fall silent, Chu Xuohua sighed, his eyes turning red, "Sister knows I'm feeling wronged, and I'm blaming you for not thinking well of you. If I had gone with you at that time, I would not have made you suffer."
"Sis!" Chu Yuehua recovered from her thoughts and lightly shook her head, "I'm fine."
Seeing his sister in this state, Chu Xuanhua did not say anything more. He had been here since he was six years old, and since then, he had no parents to protect him.
"Ai!" With a sigh, Chu Xuohua pulled her wet hair behind her ears, "Tomorrow I will go to the old lady's room to pay my respects. After a month, Ruyun has also finished her confinement.
As he was preparing to leave, he said with some worry, "I can see that you're still worried. Why don't I stay and sleep with you?"
"No need."
Chu Yuehua looked at her elder sister, revealing a sincere smile. "I'm really fine, don't worry."
For some reason, looking at his sister's expression, Chu Xuanhua felt more at ease. He nodded and went back to his room.
Chu Yuehua wasn't asleep at all. She closed her eyes and felt Du Ruo watching over her. When she discovered that her breathing had become steady, she put out the light and opened her eyes.
For the past month, besides the old lady who came to visit often, she hadn't seen anyone else lying in bed. Plus, she had a weak personality, so no one was suspicious anymore.
However, in her mind, she thought of many things from her previous life.
Initially, she couldn't believe it. She had really been reborn, but her face, her sister's face, and the old lady's face were all real. She had no choice but to believe it later on.
Today, she began to feel that the heavens had given her a chance to start anew.
The dream was still warm in his mind. He could still feel the stench of blood in his throat and the pain from his body.
However, she didn't seem to be afraid anymore. From today on, she was going to be a completely different Chu Yuehua. She wouldn't go through the things from her previous life again.
When the sky brightened, she got up. When Du Ruoruo heard the sound, she hurriedly walked over. "Why don't you sleep for a while more, Second Miss?"
"No, madame, they've come early. It's better not to be too late."
"Are you still tired?" Chu Xuhua's voice came from the other side.
The maid Shi Lan followed behind with a comb in her hand, her hair still uncombed.
"I'll comb my hair with Second Miss."
These words were said to Shi Lan.
The two sisters lived in the same room, with the door facing the door. However, Chu Xuanhua had given Xiang Yang's room to his sister, while he himself lived in a shady room.
The way she spoke clearly showed that she was very happy after hearing Chu Yuehua's words.
When he thought about it, he really didn't seem to notice this in his previous life. It was about time he got out of bed. By then, everyone in the old lady's room had already arrived.
As soon as the two sisters walked under the eaves, Lady Deng brought Zhou Ruxin over.
"Second wife." The two sisters hurriedly bowed.
Madam Deng looked at them with a smile. "You sisters have woken up early today. Is little Yue well?"
"Thank you for your trouble. It's been a long time since I've paid my respects. How have you been?"
"It's been a month since we've seen each other. Sister Yue Er's mouth is a lot sweeter now."
Saying that, Mother Song came out. "The old lady is letting the ladies in!"
The old lady had already finished dressing herself, and when she saw the Chu and Xu Hua sisters, she immediately broke into a smile, "Yo!" Why are you up so early? "Little Yue girl, let me take a look. I haven't been out for a month, are you alright?"
Chu Yuehua smiled shyly, "The old lady only knows how to tease me! I don't dare to be lazy anymore! "
The old lady was stunned for a moment and then burst into laughter. "Seems like you're done for. You even know how to joke around."
A trace of surprise flashed through Chu Yuehua's eyes. She did not ignore that gaze, but chose to pretend not to see it.
Second Cousin's wife, Lady Yang, and Third Cousin's wife, Lady Yao, came together. After they greeted each other, they went down to help the mother and maidservants in the old lady's room to prepare breakfast.
"Did the old woman take a good look at the birthday present that the empress had bestowed upon us yesterday?"
The Deng family's daughter, Zhou Ruyi, was currently the palace's concubine, Zhou Yu's concubine. These past two years, she could be considered to have been favoured, and it was precisely because of this that the Deng family stood the straightest between the third sister-in-law and sister-in-law.
"The things inside the palace are naturally good," the old lady nodded. "It's hard for the Empress to remember and know my preferences."
"What are you talking about, old lady? You are the Empress's grandmother, how can you not remember?"
"Old lady!" A girl's crisp voice sounded and everyone's gaze simultaneously swept over Chu Yuehua.
There was no need to think about this voice. It naturally belonged to Zhou Ruyun, the person that was doted on the most in the long room. She was the only one with a voice that came in first before she even entered the door.
After a while, a pink figure entered.
When she had met her elders and walked over to the two sisters' side, Chu Xuohua was prepared to remind his sister, but Chu Yuehua already took a step forward.
"Long time no see, Sister Yun!"
When Zhou Ruyun saw Chu Yuehua, her face immediately became very long, and she coldly snorted.
"Sister Yun, are you still angry at me? If that's the case, then your little sister will apologize to your big sister! Big sister has a lot, so forgive me. "
