"What's this?"
Su Jianyue pointed to the wall not far away.
Suddenly became excited.
She hurried over.
Xiao Yuqi hugged nothing, and there was a moment of resentment in his eyes.
Along the gravel path.
Su Jianyue trotted over.
Because Xiao Yuqi often comes to visit.
This cold palace was cleaned extremely carefully every day by the palace servants.
There wasn't a single weed in the corner.
...
...
Su Jianyue could easily see the wooden sign hanging on the wall.
Something is clearly marked on it.
The closer you get, the clearer the words on the wooden sign become.
Xiao Yuqi followed Su Jianyue's gaze.
“My mother carved that.”
He walked over slowly.
Due to the passage of time, many of the words on the wooden signs have become blurred.
However, Su Jianyue could recognize what was engraved on it at a glance.
"Did Auntie tell me what this is used for?"
Xiao Yuqi squatted beside Su Jianyue.
There was a hint of sadness in his dark eyes.
"My mother said that she wanted to use this method to record time. She told me that time is the thing that should never be forgotten."
Time flies, youth is fleeting.
Time should be the best yeast in the world, fermenting the years into the most mellow wine.
"really."
Su Jianyue's fingertips stroked the faintly visible words.
“This is a calendar.”
The calendar of later times.
Su Jianyue looked up and met Xiao Yuqi's shocked gaze.
She took out her cell phone, opened the calendar page, and handed it to Xiao Yuqi.
"Look, these two look exactly the same, don't they?"
Xiao Yuqi took a closer look.
"really."
That being said.
"Could my mother come from the same place as you?"
Xiao Yuqi's eyes were full of hope.
Like fragile glass, it is refracted by the sunlight and emits dazzling light.
"Very likely."
It has been too long since my mother passed away.
Every time Xiao Yuqi came here, he would only reminisce alone in the palace where they once lived.
If Su Jianyue hadn't reminded him, he would have really forgotten about this.
"Come with me."
Xiao Yuqi remembered something else.
He pulled Su Jianyue into the house.
The small, dark room was kept clean.
Su Jianyue followed behind Xiao Yuqi.
All the way inside.
Finally it stopped on the couch.
Everything here retains the same look as it did many years ago.
Tables and chairs with obvious signs of repair, bamboo backpacks, and homemade plows and rakes.
Odds and ends of tools.
It's obviously a small room.
But it is not difficult to see how hard the owners who once lived here worked.
"Here, look at this, can you understand it?"
Xiao Yuqi took out a notebook from under his pillow as if he was presenting a treasure.
Full of hope, he handed the letter to Su Jianyue.
Su Jianyue took the note.
Open.
All are English letters.
The extremely beautiful handwriting neatly recorded her inner monologue.
"I once wondered if my mother came from the same place as you. However, I studied your pinyin and writing carefully. I tried to spell out this long string of words using pinyin, but in the end, I found that I couldn't spell it out at all."
Because I tried.
So I dare not have any illusions.
He was afraid that all his assumptions were just empty illusions.
So, Xiao Yuqi didn't dare to ask at all.
"This is English, it's no wonder you don't understand."
Su Jianyue pulled Xiao Yuqi and sat on a short stool.
The old square table was placed right next to the window sill.
The light from outside shines in, and the contents above can be seen clearly.
Su Jianyue read the words above in a soft voice.
Then translate for Xiao Yuqi.
"In the year 29, on March 5, the weather was fine. I was pregnant with that man's child. I didn't know whether I should be happy or sad. I was just an outsider, but here I had someone who was related to me by blood. This child seemed to come at the wrong time, but also seemed to come at the right time!"
"29 AD, March 8, rain. I decided to keep the baby, but I still can't accept that dirty man. It's ridiculous. Every woman in the harem treats me as an imaginary enemy. If they know I'm pregnant, I will definitely lose my baby. I have to find a way to leave here."
"29 AD, March 29, sunny. My morning sickness is getting worse and worse. If this continues, the existence of this child will definitely be known to others. I have to speed up the process and leave this troubled place as soon as possible."
"April 9, 29 AD, sunny. Today is the Queen's birthday banquet, and I must attend. The Queen falsely accused me of poisoning the Crown Prince, and I was confined by that dirty man. Very good, things are going according to my idea. Child, you have to be patient, and soon, Mom will take you away from here..."
Every subsequent page recorded in detail the changes that Xiao Yuqi experienced every day while he was in her belly.
Just a few words made Xiao Yuqi's eyes red.
Been alone for too long.
He has forgotten.
Once upon a time, he was also a child loved by his mother.
Until 29 AD, May 5th, it was sunny.
"Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. Someone sent me two rice dumplings with fake death drugs inside. As long as I eat them, I can take my child and leave this cannibalistic place. It's great, baby, mom and you will be free soon!"
"29 AD, May 10th, Rain. I am finally free, it feels so good!"
…
"In the year 29, December 25, snow. I didn't expect that the dirty man would find me again. He brought me to the cannibalistic palace again. Changting is good. At least, I don't have to pay respects to people I don't like every day. I hate the complicated etiquette here, but I seem to be... about to give birth. My baby, I'm sorry that mommy couldn't give you a free life. You may have to suffer with mommy from the moment you are born!"
Xiao Yuqi's eyes were red. He held the letters that Su Jianyue had read in his palms one by one. He could no longer hold back his tears, which fell in strings.
Every drop fell into Su Jianyue's heart.
Su Jianyue felt a little blocked in her throat.
She stood up and hugged Xiao Yuqi tightly.
Give him silent comfort.
There was a thick stack of notes, and Su Jianyue only read about half of the content.
Then it peeled off Xiao Yuqi's softest heart.
Su Jianyue raised her face and tried to suppress the tears in her eyes.
She thought that the time recorded by Xiao Yuqi's mother should be in the lunar calendar. December 25th of the lunar calendar, isn't that today?
Su Jianyue held up Xiao Yuqi's face.
He smiled and said, "So, today is the birthday of our most handsome and lovely Majesty!"
Su Jianyue lowered her head and used her soft lips to wipe away the salty and bitter tears that fell on Xiao Yuqi's face.
"It just so happens that I brought you a gift. It's in your bedroom. Do you want to see it?"
