Upon hearing this, Blind Liu laughed and said, "That soul can't reincarnate. Besides, she only returned to her original body. If she hadn't returned and merged with your soul, how could you still be alive today? Your two souls have merged together. Perhaps you are her future life, and she is your past life. You two have become one."
"Ah?" Jian Ning was a little shocked. If there really was past and present lives, then Captain Wu and Ma Fuquan were probably the same.
She wanted to ask Blind Liu if he had figured out that Ma Fuquan wasn't the same Ma Fuquan he used to be, but on second thought, she decided not to ask. Given Blind Liu's skill, how could he not know the secret behind Ma Fuquan's resurrection?
When the two were halfway there, the wind started to blow and the air began to be filled with mist of rain. Blind Liu took out a rolled-up soft sword from his sleeve and shook it open. He pulled Jian Ning up and made her stand on the sword. In a flash, the two of them landed in the yard of the old house.
Ding Youtian came out of the main house holding two oil-paper umbrellas. When he saw that the weather had changed, he was thinking of going to give them an umbrella, but he didn't expect that they had already returned.
"It saves me the trouble." He smiled and reached out to pull Jian Ning over, then handed the umbrella to Blind Liu. "Master, you've been troubled. To avoid being seen, it's better to go back with the umbrella."
Blind Liu snorted, put away his sword, opened his umbrella and left.
Ding Youtian pulled Jian Ning towards the kitchen and told her, "Although I wore gloves, I immediately washed my hands with the disinfectant you prepared. Huo Jincheng also washed his hands. I'm heating water on the stove for you. Go wash them quickly. I have something else to tell you."
"What's up?"
"Just sit down and rest for a while. I'll get you a basin and talk to you later."
Ding Youtian brought a wooden basin, mixed hot and cold water, scooped a ladle of water with it, and while he was washing her hands, he said, "That Huo Jincheng might have been engaged to Xiu Gu since childhood. Don't you think it's incredible that after more than 20 years, they're still together?"
"Did he tell you?" What a big mouth, Jane Ning thought to herself.
"He said what he wanted to say. I'm just curious. If this was really an arranged marriage, and the Grand Tutor had seen you before, why didn't he recognize you when he was here before? Since our families are close, the Grand Tutor should have seen you before."
"Even if he had met her before, it was only in childhood. Haven't you heard that girls change a lot when they grow up? If he didn't recognize her at all, he wouldn't have attracted General Geng."
After washing her hands, Jian Ning took the handkerchief he handed her, wiped her hands and said, "Hey, don't think too much. I heard Uncle Liu say this before. He said Xiu Gu was my previous life and I am her next life. This is really magical."
"Really? Master, did he really say that?"
"Why are you so excited?"
"Am I excited?" He raised his eyebrows and smiled mischievously, "It seems to have really moved. It said it was thirsty and wanted to drink water."
"Ding Youtian! I just realized that you are a real gangster, an old gangster!"
"Then you'd become a gangster's wife."
"I've been screwed. I can only follow my husband wherever he goes. I'm done with my life." Jian Ning washed her face and put down the towel. "Pour out the water for me, and get me a basin of water to wash my feet. I'm going to enjoy myself today. I'll give you some orders. Go quickly."
"If you want, I can make you some footbath water every day. Speaking of which, I remembered something I haven't told you yet. I'll tell you later."
Ding Youtian threw away the water for washing his face, filled it with water for washing his feet, and told her, "Today, Huo Jincheng almost exposed Master's identity. I was really shocked when he offered to wash Master's feet."
He recounted the entire incident at Blind Liu's house, "Fortunately, Master remained calm. He also secretly used some elixir that was incredibly stinking. If Huo Jincheng hadn't been frightened away, the fact that he had six toes on his left foot would have been exposed."
Jian Ning smiled and said, "He grew up in an orderly and disciplined manner. In our opinion, he has a good family background. Sometimes his thinking is different from ours. If it were Uncle Wei, it wouldn't be the same."
"Official? Interesting. Then what are you doing over there? You're a special police officer, and so is Brother Ma. Aren't you also of official descent?"
"I'm a grassroots person, what you call a commoner. So is Brother Ma."
"So we are the same kind of people, that's why we are husband and wife, right?"
"You're right! Duan Xinning, also known as Xiu Gu, is my previous life. She is me, and I am her. I am now a legitimate young lady. If you don't pass the imperial examination and become the top scholar, you will have to obediently wash my feet every day. Do you understand?"
"I don't want to be beaten every day; I want to be beaten every day."
"Is there any difference, you old rascal?"
"You naughty lady, let your husband take you back to your room and go to bed." Ding Youtian poured water, hung up the handkerchief, turned around and made a gesture of invitation.
"Go away, that's so ugly, you're just a bitch!" Jane Ning punched him on the back, but she felt sweet in her heart.
The feeling of being pampered when in love.
After they went back to the house and cuddled for a while, he held her in his arms, his chin gently caressing the top of her head. A light rain began to fall outside the window. He looked out and said, "There's a lot of rain in spring, but it's mostly light rain. I'm afraid it will take three to five days for those two bodies to be washed away."
Jian Ning looked up at him and asked, "Are you worried that your parents will be sad?"
Ding Youtian stroked her long hair and sighed secretly, "I don't know if they will be sad, but I feel a little uncomfortable. After all, they are my parents. As long as they stop making trouble, I will..."
"I have no objection, as long as they are smarter and quieter. If there is really no one to take care of them, as their son and daughter-in-law, we will not leave them alone in their old age."
Ding Youtian couldn't help but hug her tightly.
If a husband has a wife like this, what else could he ask for?
"I have some long-term plans. Do you want to listen to them now?" he whispered in her ear.
"Tell me about it."
"I've been thinking that when Qiu Lai goes to Beijing to take the imperial examination, regardless of whether he passes or not, I'll have to send Bao'er to study in the county next year. My family was poor when I was young, but fortunately I had my master by my side. Now he's old and doesn't have the energy to teach Bao'er anymore. Besides, Bao'er is different from me. He's more suitable for the conventional path like Huo Jincheng you mentioned. What do you think?"
"I'll listen to you." Jane Ning hugged him and rubbed her face against his chest. He also kissed her lightly on the forehead.
"Well, we'll send him to the county next year. If I pass the high school entrance exam, besides having a wedding night for you, our whole family will have to move out of here and settle down with me wherever I take office. I'm thinking that everything here should be given to Lao Liu, so that your parents can live a peaceful life with him in the future."
"Speaking of which, my parents have worked hard all their lives. The little bit of land we have at home was saved by the whole family by tightening their belts. It wasn't easy."
"Before I started my own business, I didn't know how difficult it was to be the head of a household. When I was little, I always thought that my parents and my older brothers would hold up the sky if it fell. I just did whatever I wanted all day long. Now, when I think about it, I can't blame my parents for being displeased."
"Of course, as parents, they also have their own inappropriate and cruel side."
"But no one is perfect and never makes mistakes, what do you think?"
Jian Ning agreed with what he said. No matter which time and space, there are always excellent parents and even more excellent children. She rested her head on his chest and said leisurely, "I've said I'll listen to you, but I'm afraid that you've turned your heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch. I'm afraid they won't be able to enjoy the filial piety of you and Lao Liu."
