Her breath caught in her throat as the images from her dream became clearer and clearer in her mind.
Suddenly, I remembered everything.
I met He Miao around that time.
Back in the palace, she began to teach her perfumery. Although He Miao was her maid, she was also her first good sister in the mortal world.
She remembered that when He Miao was about to leave the palace, she was afraid that He Miao would be bullied, so she bought her a house and betrothed her to a guard.
He Miao was an orphan from a young age, having no parents. She was then sold into the palace. As He Miao's mistress, she gave her a name: He Miao.
The He family are her descendants, and the He family also has another surname, which is Lu.
so……
Lu Man is also a descendant of He Miao.
Now, not a single seedling has survived.
This wasn't the most important thing she remembered; the most important thing was Helian Xiu...
She discovered that after being struck by lightning, her memory had really deteriorated, and she almost forgot about her brother Helian Xiu.
Helian Xiu...
Fu Xiuchen...
And then there's Xu Feng.
She didn't remember very clearly and didn't know if Xu Feng was her brother's special assistant.
She only remembered one thing: back then, when they were at war with a neighboring country, the casualties were heavy, her brother personally led the expedition, and Xu Feng and she followed behind.
On the battlefield, the older brother instinctively took a knife for Xu Feng.
In ancient times, it was the subject who would die for his ruler, but the elder brother, as the noble ruler of a country, actually took this blow for Xu Feng.
Xu Feng was shocked, but also very grateful.
After that, her brother fell into a coma, and she used her medical skills to save him.
After being in a coma for five days and five nights, the older brother woke up.
At that moment, Xu Feng, with tears in his eyes, knelt before His Majesty's bed, clasped his hands together, and swore, "I, Xu Feng, am willing to follow Your Majesty for all eternity, never changing my name or surname."
At that time, Xu Feng's sincerity moved her, so she went to find the Oath Immortal Lord.
Out of consideration for their master-servant bond, the Immortal Lord of Oath granted Xu Feng's request.
Therefore, this is crucial.
Maybe……
Maybe……
Thinking of this, her heart trembled and her eyes welled up with tears.
It's possible that Fu Xiuchen is the elder brother's past life.
Thinking of this, she quickly grabbed her phone. Recalling all the doting affection Helian Xiu had shown her in her past life, her nose tingled with emotion.
Before the call even connected, a tear welled up in her eye. The painful images flooded her mind again, so vivid, as if it had all happened yesterday.
Helian Xiu passed away at the age of seventy-three. Before his death, he was half-lying on the dragon bed, no longer the handsome young man he once was, nor the steady and doting older brother, but an old man in his twilight years.
She stayed by his bedside, keeping him company and talking to him.
“My dear, you looked just like this when I first met you. Now, my hair has turned white and I’ve grown old, but you still look like a little girl.”
She moved her lips: "Brother..."
She didn't think her brother was ugly now that he was old. In her heart, Helian Xiu was a very charming man. Even though he was old, the charm he exuded from his bones had not changed at all. On the contrary, it had a unique flavor.
"I don't believe you're like this because you're sick. In my eyes, you're not only my sister, but also a fairy from heaven."
“Brother…” He had always known, but he just didn’t say it.
"It's just a pity that I can't be with you anymore."
"Brother, we'll meet again someday, and I might be your sister again." She wanted to cry, but she was a fairy and had no tears. Her eyes were red and a little sore.
Helian Xiu's aged voice rang out again: "Are you waiting for someone in this thatched hut?"
"Yes, I waited for him for hundreds of years, but he never came." She nodded, her nose tingling, but she still didn't shed a tear.
"We'll wait."
Yao'er reached out, took his hand, and placed it on her cheek: "Brother, thank you. You are the first person who has made me feel like I have family."
"Silly girl." He smiled, and even though he was old and frail, his doting affection for her remained unchanged.
Helian Xiu looked at the sunlight outside the wooden window, his voice gradually fading: "Brother, I have one biggest regret in my life."
"Um?"
“When I was down on my luck, you carried me for thirteen miles, half of which was a mountain path, but I have never carried you once.”
"Now, now I'll have my brother carry me on his back."
Helian Xiu grasped her hand in return and laughed again: "You've lived in the mortal world for so long, how come you're still so silly? Your brother is old now and can't carry you anymore."
“Brother…” She really wanted to cry, but she had no tear ducts. She just felt a terrible pain in her heart, especially in her throat, which felt like it was being choked, making it very difficult to breathe.
She remembered that during the six months after their first meeting, her brother had brought it up three times, and she had refused each time. After that, he never brought it up again.
She thought he was just acting on a whim, but she never expected that he would even remember the distance. He had always remembered and genuinely wanted to carry her, but she left him with a regret.
Yao'er gripped his hand tightly: "Brother, let's wait for the next life. It will definitely happen. When that time comes, I'll let you carry me on my back. I will absolutely, absolutely never refuse again."
"Okay, in the next life."
The first person to make her realize the pain of separation and death was her benefactor.
The second was Helian Xiu, her only acknowledged brother.
This feeling is really unpleasant, not at all...
Her thoughts returned to the present moment, and tears had already soaked her beautiful face, as if she were making up for all the tears she hadn't shed before.
Right now, she really wants to hear her brother's voice...
The phone kept ringing, but I didn't answer it.
She tried calling several times, but couldn't get through.
Just as she was about to dial again, the phone rang; it was her brother calling.
She quickly answered the phone: "Brother..."
"What's wrong?" Fu Xiuchen asked, his voice soft and hoarse. "Are you crying, Yao'er?"
Tang Yaoyao quickly stopped speaking, smiled and said, "No, I just woke up, that's why I'm so weak when I speak."
"Sorry, I was taking a shower and didn't hear the phone."
Tang Yaoyao gently curved her lips, forcing back her tears, and asked softly, "What are you apologizing for, brother? I just wanted to ask if you're free today?"
"What's wrong?"
"I want to buy gifts for my parents, but I don't know what they like. I'd like you to come with me to buy them."
"When?" Fu Xiuchen would never refuse his sister's request unless there were special circumstances.
"In the evening, that's when filming should be finished."
Fu Xiuchen said again, "Okay."
Tang Yaoyao suddenly felt reluctant to hang up the phone. An invisible sense of fear seemed to travel through hundreds of years and suddenly struck her heart. She was afraid that after hanging up the phone, she would be like her brother, wanting to see him but never being able to see him again.
At that time, she went to find the immortal lord, wanting to know where her brother would be reincarnated. She wanted to go and find him.
