Tong Chenger lived a bitter life. After her death, a self-proclaimed time administrator, Unit 1314, informed her that her difficult life was due to his mistake during his internship. He promised to...
"My dear princess, why are you still sleeping? Your Majesty is waiting for you! You can't sleep any longer."
Ning, the personal nanny who served Tong Cheng'er, said the same things to Tong Cheng'er almost every day. Tong Cheng'er was so tired of hearing it that she couldn't help but plug her ears.
"Let me sleep a little longer, just a little while..." Tong Cheng'er's soft voice came from under the covers, making Ning Mama reluctant to call her any longer. But if she didn't get up to pay her respects to the Fujin soon, it would really be too late.
Although the Fujin is the princess's biological mother, the rules cannot be broken. The Fujin will not blame the princess for being late in paying her respects, but there are many people in the mansion, and it is inevitable that some bad rumors about the princess will spread. The princess will be selected for the imperial concubine selection in a few years, and her reputation cannot be ruined.
Ning Mama was Tong Cheng'er's personal nanny and also her wet nurse. She had always served her and naturally cared about her.
So although it was hard to bear urging her to get up, I had no choice but to do it.
Ning Mama also had ways to deal with Tong Cheng'er.
"Ru Xue, bring me a handkerchief."
A maidservant waiting to serve her heard the voice and sprang into action: "Yes, Granny."
A moment later, the maid named Ruxue handed a white cotton handkerchief to Granny Ning with both hands. Granny Ning was very generous and covered Tong Cheng'er's fair and soft little face with the handkerchief.
The cold handkerchief touched her face, making Tong Cheng'er shiver and immediately sober up: "Cold, so cold, Granny, take it away quickly..."
After all that fuss, Tong Cheng'er finally got out of bed.
It's not easy at all.
With the meticulous care of her maids and nannies, Tong Cheng'er washed up before going to the main courtyard to see her mother, Shumulu Shi.
Yes, she is my mother in this life.
Tong Cheng'er is a time-traveling woman, and there's a story behind how she came to be a time traveler.
In her past life, she had a hard life. She had little family affection, her parents divorced and abandoned her. She lived with her grandparents. The two old people did not mistreat her, but they just kept her from starving.
She was unlucky; everything she did went wrong.
for example:
You trip and fall while walking.
By a twist of fate, I ended up taking the blame for someone else.
I lose my wallet every now and then.
Everything at work is going wrong.
Even small animals like cats and dogs would bark at her and avoid her.
So she doesn't have many friends. It's not that she's introverted, but because those who get close to her sometimes get dragged into trouble, and over time she became a loner.
She was only twenty-four years old when she died, and had only been working for a year. She had finally saved up some money and was planning to have a nice meal when the car she was in on her way to eat was in an accident.
It wasn't a big deal, after all, she'd been in several car accidents, and this time was no different from before, there weren't any major problems, but she was still taken to the hospital for a checkup.
The examination revealed a problem: due to her long-term irregular diet, she had developed a tumor in her stomach. After a follow-up examination, the doctor diagnosed her with late-stage malignant cancer.
Even with money, one couldn't survive this kind of cancer, let alone without any money. So she could only rely on medication and wait to die.
She died on a sunny afternoon. No one knew that she left the world that had caused her a lifetime of suffering alone, with a sense of relief in her eyes.
When she opened her eyes again, she found that she was conscious. At first, she thought she had arrived in the underworld, but she found that the place she was in was chaotic.
Then a person claiming to be the 1314 time-space administrator told her that the reason she suffered so much in her past life was because of his mistake during his internship.
He then told her that to make up for his mistake, he would make her happy in his next life.
She didn't care. She had already endured the hardest and most difficult days. Even if she was happy in the next life, that was a matter for the next life. How could that make up for the suffering she had endured in this life?
When she woke up again, she found herself as a baby in the Qing Dynasty. Then, the time-space administrator, number 1314, looked apologetic and told her that he had made a mistake again and sent her to the wrong place. He then repeatedly assured her that even in the Qing Dynasty, he would make her happy and fulfilled.
At this point, Tong Cheng'er no longer trusted him and thought, "Let him come if he wants; life is the same no matter where you are."
And so, Tong Cheng'er spent nine years in the Qing Dynasty.
She is already ten years old according to the traditional Chinese age reckoning.
Because her past life was too tiring, she doesn't have many wishes in this life. She just hopes to live a more relaxed and easier life, so she appears somewhat lazy to outsiders.
In fact, she is just very lazy.
Although she didn't go to bed late at night, she would stay in bed a little longer in the morning. She was even more reluctant to do needlework. Firstly, she didn't have the talent for it, and secondly, she felt that needlework was too hard on her eyes. Looking at those dense needlework patterns gave her a headache.
As for the housekeeper, she tried to avoid getting involved as much as possible. However, she didn't really need to learn much about this aspect, since she had attended university before transmigrating and studied financial management, and had worked in a company for a year or two.
A housekeeper's job is simply to manage household expenses and social interactions, much like what one does at a company.
As for other talents, she was even less willing to learn them. The only thing she could be proud of was her calligraphy, which was passable.
She only learned to write this character because her mother, Shumulu, forced and supervised her every day.
Because Shumulu said that no matter what, there must be something that can be presented.
Although Tong Cheng'er also acted cute and charming, Shu Mulu never spoiled her when it came to practicing calligraphy. After all, she still had to participate in the imperial examination. Even if her family didn't expect her to be chosen for marriage, they couldn't let her be rejected just because she was useless.
