Chapter 2: Return of the Soul
"Oh, the second girl is awake!"
"Quick, go and tell the eldest lady and the old lady that the second young lady has woken up!"
"yes!"
Yuan Ziyu slowly opened his eyes, looked at the familiar cherry pink embroidered curtain in front of him, listened to the familiar voice in his ears, and a trace of confusion and bewilderment flashed across his eyes!
Wasn't she dead? She died in Huo Xifei's arms. She still remembered Huo Xifei's desperate cry. Even after she had left her body, she couldn't help but want to cry. However, at that time, she couldn't shed any tears at all!
She watched Huo Xifei carry her out of the Huainan Marquis Mansion, watched him build a tomb and erect a tombstone for her, watched him carve the words on the tombstone with his own hands - Tomb of my beloved wife Huo Yuanshi Ziyou, erected by my husband Huo Xifei!
This man is so stupid that he never married for her!
Not until her death did she realize how much this man had done for her, but she could not get over the hurdle in her heart. How could a broken woman with blood on her hands and a disfigured face be worthy of such a handsome man?
However, she never expected that she, who was clearly dead, could wake up again!
Looking at the familiar room, Yuan Ziyou was puzzled. Is this the room she lived in after returning to Beijing with her parents?
Is she back?
Was it a dream or her imagination?
Also, those two voices just now, were they Qingying and Qingzhi?
Qingying and Qingzhi had died a long time ago. One was chopped to death by the soldiers who were confiscating property in order to protect herself, and the other jumped into the river in order to create an opportunity for herself to escape!
But now, why did I hear their voices again?
"Second Miss, would you like to drink some water to moisten your throat?"
Yuan Ziyu turned around and looked at the person who was speaking. It was Qingying!
The living Qingying had a vivid expression on her face, instead of being chopped down by those soldiers, with her eyes wide open and a look of fear on her face!
Qingying felt that her second daughter looked at her strangely after waking up, but she didn't think much of it. She thought that the second daughter was frightened, so she said again: "Second daughter, let me give you some water!"
"Okay!" Yuan Ziyu nodded!
No matter it is a dream or a fantasy, it is always good to see these familiar people again. If you can spend more time with them, then spend more time with them!
Yuan Ziyu took a few sips of water from Qingying's hand and asked, "Where are the eldest lady and the old lady?"
Just now she heard Qingzhi ask the maid to report!
"They should be here soon!" If the eldest lady and the old lady knew that the second young lady had woken up, they would definitely rush over immediately. Qingying calculated the time and they should be here soon!
Before Qingying finished her words, she heard Qingzhi's voice from the other side of the screen: "Greetings, old lady, greetings, first lady!"
"Is You'er awake?" It was the voice of Madam Liu of Yuan Dynasty!
"Madam, the second young lady has woken up!" Qingzhi's voice was filled with joy when talking about Yuan Ziyu.
Before Qingzhi could finish her words, Liu and Madam Yuanlao hurriedly walked around the screen.
Yuan Ziyu looked up and saw two faces that she had missed for many years. They were her mother Liu and grandmother Cui.
Qingying bowed hurriedly and said, "Greetings, old lady, and first lady!"
Mrs. Liu and Madam Yuan Lao were too busy to care about Qingying. They hurried forward, shook Yuan Ziyu's hand, and said happily, "You'er, you're finally awake!"
"Grandma, Mom!" If she counted, she hadn't seen her relatives for more than 30 years, including her lifetime and death!
Yuan Ziyu had tears in her eyes as she tightly held the hands of Liu and Madam Yuan, looking at their faces greedily. These were her closest relatives, whom she had missed for so many years!
"You child, you cried as soon as you woke up, were you scared?" Madam Yuan looked at Yuan Ziyu with heartache. Although this girl had not grown up by her side since childhood, unlike Tong, who grew up by her side and was gentle, quiet and lovable, she was her granddaughter after all. How could she not feel distressed when she saw her suffer such a great hardship? "Don't be so naughty in the future. Tell me, what's so good about a girl playing with knives and guns? Learn more from your cousin. Girls should be gentle and kind!"
"I'm sorry to have made grandma worried!" Yuan Ziyu knew that her grandmother was doing this for her own good, so she followed her grandmother's words, with a cold gleam in her lowered eyes. Her family was falsely accused of corruption and treason back then, and her second uncle's family played an indispensable role, especially her gentle and kind cousin, who was even better than her uncle!
"Oh!" The elder lady sighed and touched her granddaughter's hair. Her little face was so pale that it really made people feel distressed!
Liu was embarrassed. She didn't know how to respond to her mother-in-law's words. Her daughter You'er had been learning martial arts with her father since she was a child. She didn't like anything about girls except cooking. But her husband liked You'er's personality and doted on her a lot. As long as it wasn't out of line, he would agree to anything!
She only had this one daughter, so naturally she doted on her. She had been living in the frontier for many years, and she never thought that she would return to the capital one day. So, naturally, she let her daughter do whatever she wanted!
But just a few days after returning to Beijing, his daughter fell into the water and had a high fever that wouldn't go away. She was in a coma for three whole days. It was so worrying!
Liu touched her daughter's forehead and felt it was no longer hot. She breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Are you hungry? I'll have someone make you some bird's nest porridge, okay?"
"Yeah!" Yuan Ziyu nodded. Knowing that her grandmother and mother were worried about her, she said, "I'm fine now. Don't worry, grandmother and mother. I'll be well again soon!"
"Girls, don't wield swords or guns anymore, and stay away from the lake," the elder lady warned. Then she glared at Qingying and Qingzhi with hatred, "If your mother hadn't stopped you, these two servants would have been severely punished. They couldn't even protect their own girl."
The elder lady's words frightened Qingying and Qingzhi so much that their faces turned pale!
Yuan Ziyu was not willing to let Qingying and Qingzhi suffer: "Grandma, it has nothing to do with them. I accidentally slipped!"
"Oh, you!" The elder lady sighed and did not continue the topic.
After comforting Yuan Ziyu for a few more words, Madam Yuan went back first. Before leaving, she told Yuan Ziyu to take good care of herself and take care of her health. After returning, she sent the nanny beside her to bring Yuan Ziyu various cakes and a set of pink pearl headwear, which was just right for her age!
Soon, the bird's nest porridge arrived, and Liu fed her daughter herself. Looking at her daughter's tired face, she told her to have a good rest and then went back!
After Liu left, Yuan Ziyu said he wanted to rest, sent Qingying and Qingzhi out, closed his eyes to rest, and sorted out his thoughts!
It seemed that everything now was very real, not a dream! Besides, she was a wandering soul, where could she dream? She clearly remembered that she had not slept at all during the twenty years she had been wandering!
Could it be that she really came back?
Thinking of this, Yuan Ziyu couldn't help but feel a little excited. He opened his eyes and looked at the furnishings in the room. He reached out and touched the bedding and the edge of the bed. After thinking about it, he bit his wrist!
Hiss, it hurts!
Looking at the teeth marks on his wrist, Yuan Ziyu's heart was pounding!
She felt pain and a pounding heart. It wasn't a dream, nor was it a wandering spirit state. She was really back, back to when she was twelve years old.
And now, it was the day when she woke up from a high fever and coma after falling into the water!
