When the gift was handed to Rong Yue'e, she couldn't let it go and touched it again and again.
In the month since Chaoxi came back, she had wanted to visit the General's Mansion many times, but the guilt in her heart was hard to dispel, and she needed to grow up quickly, take revenge, and then leave.
Sooner or later we will not see each other again, so there is no need to add too much emotion.
This is also the reason why she insisted on moving out of the general's mansion.
They were so good, so good that she wanted to crave that tenderness, the long-lasting and sincere tenderness that she had never felt in her previous life.
If only her aunt was her mother, if only she and Chaoxi had the same mother... Perhaps, she could let go of their hatred.
But it is not.
That night, Rong Yue'e fell asleep with a small mirror as her pillow.
In her dream, she returned to that home, that suffocating world.
She was the daughter of a noble family, dressed in fine clothes, enjoying delicacies from land and sea, and having a horde of servants.
From the age of one to thirteen, she was dignified and polite, yet also unrestrained and happy.
His parents loved her, his brothers and sisters respected her, and she was the most outstanding girl in Beidi City.
She thought... that was it.
But after my thirteenth birthday, my dream was shattered and everything became empty.
She was just a "medicine" that they pampered, and after using it, she became a "cat" that led them to the way of life.
She was never herself; she was irreplaceable and disposable.
Thirteen years ago, Dongwu had been harassed by a small country on the border for a long time, and wars broke out frequently. Beiyi took advantage of this turmoil, marched south, and quickly occupied Beidi City.
At that time, Rong Yue'e had just had her last bowl of medicinal blood taken from her and had luckily saved her life. She was lingering on in the Xie family's backyard, which was as deep as a palace wall.
When the northern barbarians entered the city, the first people they targeted were the local aristocratic families.
The chief general moved into the Xie family and asked them to offer a beauty. In order to save their lives, the Xie family pushed Rong Yue'e out.
Northern women are so straightforward. She is beautiful, but also sick, and looks like Xi Shi holding her heart, which is quite charming. The Northern Barbarian General happily accepted her.
If that were the case, she wouldn't hate him so much.
Most of the wealthy and powerful families would abandon one or two children in order to protect their homes. There was nothing wrong with that, and she accepted it.
But that’s far from the truth…
Even though the Xie family presented beautiful jade, jewelry, and beautiful women to the northern barbarians, they still did not receive any preferential treatment and were driven out of the house.
Rong Yue'e won the general's favor and wanted to marry him as his wife.
The Xie family held a grudge and wanted to have the second Miss Xie take their place and regain their wealth.
But they didn't know that the northern barbarians originally wanted to slaughter the entire Xie family, and their lives were saved by Rong Yue'e.
She and Miss Xie Er are not sisters, but because they have been raised together for many years, they are 50% similar.
She is just a beauty. Every beauty is a beauty.
They took advantage of her thirteen years of raising her and her little bit of compassion to trick her out of the house.
She went there and almost died, but a disheveled beggar saved her.
Later, she learned that the beggar was her biological mother, whose surname was Lin and who also came from a wealthy family.
Second Miss Xie was born with a congenital deficiency and asked a wandering Taoist priest to read her fortune. She was born in the same year and month as Second Miss Xie, almost at the same time, and thus became the "medicine" they needed.
The Xie family stole her and was discovered by her mother. They decided to go all out and set fire to the house, killing the entire Lin family.
The mother was worried about her daughter and crawled out covered in flames.
She originally wanted to take her daughter back, but she saw that the Xie family treated her very well, and she was already a broken body.
She suppressed her longing and became a beggar near the Xie family. She just wanted to see him once when she went out.
On the day of her wedding to the Northern Yi general, the Dongwu army attacked.
She knew the time had come. On her wedding night, she killed the general and hid in Xie's house with her mother, waiting for the arrival of the Dongwu army.
But what she waited for first was the counterattack of the Xie family, and she and her mother died under their knives.
It seemed like... being stabbed fifteen times was the time she came into this world.
When they knew their origins, they should have been killed!
Before the ghost arrived, she watched the Xie family receive credit for killing the Northern Barbarian general, receive rewards from the court, and return to their world of endless prosperity.
Hope was right in front of her, but she was killed by her own compassion. She was unwilling to cross the Forgetful River and unwilling to forget, but disobedient ghosts would be eaten by the Goddess of Forgetfulness.
Her mother carried her across the river.
The moment she ran into the gate of new life, she saw her mother being arrested.
No matter what, she had to avenge herself before she could go down to find her mother. Perhaps she was punished in hell, or perhaps she was eaten.
Rong Yue'e woke up in the morning light to find her pillow wet. She got up, dressed, and took the pillow out to dry in the air in the yard.
"Sister Yue'e."
A soft and sticky voice broke in unexpectedly. The bright spring and sunny summer were not as beautiful as her smile at that moment.
"Sister Chaoxi."
She responded with a similar smile, not as genuine as hers, but also like a bird hatched from a heart full of tenderness.
The little girl came running over and took her hand, "We're going to fly a kite today, Chaoxi will take you to skip school."
She followed her light out of the city, crossed the surging river, ran to the green grassland, and buried herself in the unbridled freedom.
That day, the sun was warm, the breeze was gentle, the kites were flying high, and the children on the ground were very noisy.
"Auntie, your kite is entangled with me, go away..."
"Gou Tiandao, what are you talking about? If you dare to do that again, I'll come over and beat you up!"
Seeing that her phoenix was about to collide with the cicada's bluebird, Rong Chaoxi shook her fist at the sky fiercely.
The threat worked, and the two kites separated in an unusual way.
"Sister can scare the wind, sister is so powerful..." The little Han Yi jumped happily beside Rong Chaoxi.
