Chapter 259 Second Aunt, I am Xiangxiang
Liu Yu left Kyoto without even turning his head, and no one from the Tang Dynasty tried to stop him.
Murong Fenghuang watched Liu Yu leave, laughed loudly, pulled Yuanying and said, "Princess, let's go back and get ready."
Yuan Rong and Yuan Ying left, and no one noticed that one person was missing.
Xie Xiangxiang escaped from the escape cave originally dug by Murong Fenghuang and fled all the way to the countryside outside Beijing.
When she arrived at the small mountain temple on the outskirts of Beijing, she suddenly remembered that two years ago, all the people from Wuyi Marquis' Mansion, along with the prisoners who were exiled to Lingnan, had lived here.
She was a prisoner at that time, but her family members were still alive, and she was still the high-ranking eldest lady, the hope to change the fate of the whole family.
But most of those relatives died at her hands.
How did she become what she is now?
She obviously loves them very much... Alas, it's fate!
Squatting in the small temple with air leaking out from all sides, she was so frozen that she couldn't think straight.
It's easy to die, but it's too hard to live.
She was reborn, but her life was worse than her previous life, and her bonus period had long passed. She was no different from anyone else.
No, she is not as good as others. Now she has lost even the looks that helped her win favor.
The two big words on the face were tattooed by the Yuanying, just like tattooing. Unless the skin is cut off, it cannot be washed off.
When Yuanying saw Murong Fenghuang, he thought he was the most beautiful and the best in the world. He had good looks, martial arts skills, a bad temper, and was also a warrior of their clan.
When Murong Fenghuang found out that Xie Xiangxiang was faking her pregnancy, he didn't kill her. He just said, "You are also a poor person." Then he gave her to Yuan Rong.
Yuan Rong was a pervert, and there were no ethical standards in the nomadic tribe. She became the plaything of three generations: Yuan Rong, the Emperor of Wei, and Yuan Rong's son.
She wanted to escape, but she couldn't. It was a nightmare she didn't want to face.
Every nation has its own habits. She could not adapt to and did not want to recall such a humiliating life.
Yuanying said that Xie Xiangxiang had blasphemed and deceived the man of her dreams, and humiliated Xie Xiangxiang in various ways and tattooed these two words on her face.
If it were in the past, Xie Xiangxiang would have been so ashamed and angry, but after going through so much, she has become numb.
Just like that mouthful of old phlegm, she could swallow it calmly.
The cold wind was howling outside, and she thought she should survive.
It's hard to survive, so hard.
She was afraid that she was frozen to the bone, so she hurried out of the mountain temple and searched the surrounding mountains for a long time, but found nothing.
She has been thinking about one thing: how come Xie Yanyan is so good at finding food?
In her eyes, it seemed like there was food everywhere, but why couldn't she find it?
I searched around the mountain temple for a long time, but couldn't find even a grain of wheat in the fields, or a single root or rhizome.
Those yellow and brown short plants are probably grasses, right? Can they be eaten?
There was only snow, white as snow. She could eat it, but it would make her colder.
She couldn't even make a fire. Without a tinderbox, she couldn't even light a fire.
Coming out of the mountain temple, she saw the pond at the foot of the mountain, which had already been covered with thick ice.
It was just pure ice. There were no fish or snails under the ice, and there was nothing to eat.
"I'm not as good as Xie Yanyan. There's really a huge gap between us!" Xie Xiangxiang admitted dejectedly, "I don't want to struggle anymore. I'll do anything to keep me alive."
The further she walked, the weaker her feet felt, and she walked and walked crookedly.
I don’t know how many days I walked, but I arrived at a village. The village was very dilapidated. The land had been ravaged by war, and there was depression and scars everywhere.
There was a family whose yard was surrounded by a fence, but it was still relatively intact. There was a very simple carpenter's saw hanging on the wall. There were three main thatched houses and an east room. A small bunch of mushrooms was hung on the wall in the yard. The mushrooms were smaller than the tip of a finger and were strung together with needle and thread. There were seven or eight dry mushrooms.
She pushed the straw door open desperately, went in, grabbed the mushrooms hanging on the wall and stuffed them directly into her mouth.
The taste of dried mushrooms in her mouth didn't taste good, but she stuffed them into her mouth one after another.
Her noise woke up the people in the house. The door creaked and Xie Xiangxiang ran out desperately.
A man chased out with a big fork: "What did you steal? Stop!"
A woman also chased out, holding a bald bamboo broom in her hand: "She looks like a human but comes to our house to steal things. Beat her to death."
Xie Xiangxiang didn't care about anything, just holding the mushroom in her hand and running as fast as she could.
But she had been hungry for several days and could not run fast, so the man quickly caught up with her and pinned her down.
The woman behind her also came over, grabbed her hair, and two people dragged her back.
She refused even at death.
Right now, if a single person is dragged into an unfamiliar environment and someone molests you, it is not scary. The scariest thing is that they treat you as food.
"Don't kill me, I'm so hungry, I'm sorry"
She apologized as she struggled.
The woman was startled and squatted down, pulling off the veil on her face. Looking at the face that seemed familiar but not in her memory, both of them were shocked.
"Xie Xiangxiang?"
"Who are you?" The person in front of him was an old woman, wearing a tattered cotton-padded jacket with patches on top of patches, a weather-beaten face, and a pair of hands with frostbite cracks that were oozing yellow water.
"Xiangxiang, I am, I am Jiang Shuang."
"Second, Second Aunt?"
Xie Xiangxiang was stunned. In her impression, although Second Aunt didn't have luxurious clothes and delicious food, she didn't have to worry about food and clothing. She was only about 40 years old, right? How could she look so old?
The man asked: "Jiang Shuang, who is this?"
Jiang Shuang pointed at Xie Xiangxiang and said, "She is the niece of my ex-husband."
Xie Xiangxiang kowtowed and begged: "Second Aunt, you are the kindest, please save me, God will bless you."
Jiang Shuang felt sorry for her, hesitated for a moment, looked at the man and said, "Tiedan, how about taking her back and warming her up first?"
She said to Xie Xiangxiang: "Xiangxiang, our life is very difficult, we can only keep you for one day, no more."
Xie Xiangxiang kowtowed and said, "Second Aunt, don't worry, I'll only stay for one day. I haven't slept for many people. Please let me get some sleep and I'll leave right away."
Seeing that Jiang Shuang begged him, Li Tiedan agreed.
Xie Xiangxiang followed them home. Jiang Shuang first poured her a bowl of hot water, which Xie Xiangxiang drank in one gulp. She took off her wolfskin coat and said to Li Tiedan, "Brother Tiedan, this coat is only worth a few dollars. You can take it to a shop in the city to pawn it, or sell it and exchange it for some rice and flour."
Li Tiedan felt the thickness of the coat. It was a very valuable fur coat.
"You can dress yourself. It's too cold in winter. It's easy to go out, but it's hard to redeem yourself."
Li Tiedan was an honest man. He returned the wolfskin coat to Xie Xiangxiang and said, "My husband and I are in a difficult situation. We have no food to eat. We don't want your coat, and we won't keep it. We can't help it. Our family is in a difficult situation."
Who can feed a mouth for free?
Xie Xiangxiang said: "I still have a cotton-padded jacket underneath, you can go out, at least we can have a full meal first."
"Pawn your coat and exchange it for rice. Please help me find out whether the people from Northern Wei have left. If they have, I will leave immediately today."
