Xiao Li patted Xiao Yue's bun; they were about the same age, so it was effortless to touch.
Take good care of yourself!
Xiaoyue nodded, "Miss, please take care too!"
Xiao Li sent Xiao Yue away and walked towards the main gate.
The original owner left through the back door without making a sound, and no one knew that the young lady of the Marquis's mansion had been replaced.
Those who knew about it have already been dealt with by the Lady of the Marquis.
Xiao Li, however, did not do as they wished; she wanted everyone to know even if she left.
This time, Xiaoyue and the others will be safe.
With Huanling becoming invisible, Xiaoli left the Marquis's mansion without any effort. She stood at the gate, and the people outside stopped to watch, wondering what this young girl was going to say.
The guards at the gate spotted Xiaoli, but not knowing what had happened, they had no choice but to report to their master.
Xiao Li bowed gently towards the Marquis's residence.
"My lord, my lady, from now on, I will be a country girl."
Ten years ago, my daughter and I were switched at birth. It was an accident, and now we should each be returned to our rightful place.
"Let us all bear witness that I, Yun Li, have changed my name to Liu Li, and I am returning to my hometown. From this day forward, I will have no further connection with the Marquis's mansion."
When Lady Hou came out, she heard these words. She was so angry that she almost fell to the ground.
Liu Yiyi was also rubbing her handkerchief, secretly angry.
She had originally planned to secretly change her identity so that the prince would be hers, but unfortunately, that's no longer possible.
However, considering that Yun Li no longer holds the status of the eldest daughter of the Marquis's family, the young master probably won't take a liking to her anymore.
She felt a little relieved; she still had the status of the eldest legitimate daughter, so she didn't need that favor.
Lady Hou supported Zhang Mama's arm to steady herself. Since Zhang Mama didn't know what was good for her, she wouldn't blame herself for being ruthless.
I had originally planned to let her pack some valuables so that she could have a better life when she returned to her hometown, but now it seems she won't be able to take anything with her.
They wanted to let her leave, but fearing the gossip that the Marquis's mansion was too heartless, the Marquis's wife summoned a servant.
"Since that's the case, then so be it. Men, take her back."
The servant brought the prepared carriage, and Xiaoli got in without any hesitation.
The original owner packed her personal clothes and jewelry, but Liu Yiyi provoked her with a few words and made her open the bundle to inspect it, whereupon she suffered all kinds of humiliation.
Finally, he left the Marquis's residence with only two old clothes.
Even if Lady Hou wanted the original owner to take some gold and silver with her, Liu Yiyi refused, and Xiao Li wouldn't bother with that.
After a bumpy two-hour journey, they finally arrived at Peach Blossom Village. As soon as Xiao Li got out of the carriage, the servant quickly drove off as if a ghost were chasing him.
Xiao Li didn't mind; she understood the saying "when people leave, the tea cools." Looking at the picturesque village before her, she was still satisfied.
The area is close to Hanshan Temple, so the fields cultivated by the villagers are all temple land, which not only has low rent, but also rent reductions or exemptions in years of disaster.
In addition, villagers often set up stalls at the foot of Hanshan Temple, so Taohua Village is a relatively wealthy village.
It wasn't at all like what Liu Yiyi said, that they were so poor they couldn't even afford eggs.
Upon arriving at the Liu family's residence, Xiaoli took out a bundle, which she had prepared for herself, containing only a few pieces of clothing.
She gently knocked on the door knocker, and after a short while, a sound came from inside.
"Who are you……"
The one who opened the door was Liu Qingcheng, the eldest brother of the Liu family, who is now fifteen years old.
Xiao Li introduced herself, "I am Liu Li, and I will be called Liu Li from now on."
Liu Qingcheng's eyes widened; this was his younger sister.
He turned and ran into the house, forgetting to let Xiaoli in.
"Father, Mother, my sister is back."
Xiao Li went inside and closed the courtyard gate.
Turning around, I saw Liu Jianghe and Sun Huiniang coming out of the house.
The three men stared at her, unsure of what to say.
This is a noble lady from a marquis's family! Now she's become our own daughter. What should we do?
Xiao Li thought for a moment, "Father, Mother, Brother, hello, I am Liu Li."
Liu Jianghe wiped his hands on his clothes and chuckled foolishly.
"Hehe, you're back. Come inside."
Sun Huiniang's eyes reddened. She thought it was Yiyi who had returned, but she never expected her biological daughter to come back.
The Marquis's family raised her in luxury until she was ten years old, how could they bear to let her come back and suffer?
However, now that she's back, she's happy.
Looking at her daughter, Sun Huiniang also smiled.
"Xiao Li, come inside quickly."
Looking at the simple yet cozy house, Xiaoli sighed inwardly.
If the original owner hadn't been switched at birth, she would have been very happy.
Just look at Liu Yiyi; aside from getting tanned from playing around, she doesn't have a single callus on her hands.
The Liu family is not the kind of family that would mistreat their daughter.
Have you eaten? I'll boil you an egg.
Sun Huiniang had just sat down when she stood up again. She couldn't think of anything else good to eat at home; the only thing she had was a few eggs, which was already the best thing she had.
Xiao Li nodded, "Okay, I'm actually hungry."
Sun Huiniang happily went to the kitchen, and Liu Jianghe quickly went to help start the fire.
Xiao Li looked at this older brother, who was the original owner's older brother. Unfortunately, they were not close in the end.
After the original owner returned, she sat down without saying a word. Sun Huiniang was at a loss and boiled some eggs for her daughter to eat.
However, the original owner, immersed in the pain of being abandoned, never thought of getting along well with her parents and relatives.
Looking at the stained white porcelain bowl, she had no appetite and pushed it away carelessly, breaking the bowl. This not only hurt Sun Huiniang's feelings but also made her father and brother dissatisfied with her.
Later, because no room had been prepared in advance, the original owner could only sleep in the room that Liu Yiyi had once lived in.
Looking at the belongings in the room that belonged to others, she thought of her own room and felt very sad, so she started to cry.
The Liu family all thought she disliked this place, and they were all very unhappy.
Once a nail is planted in your heart, it will be difficult to remove it later.
What's more, there's also Liu Yiyi, no, she's called Yun Yiyi now.
Yun Yiyi sowed discord and spread rumors among the Liu family, causing the original owner to become distant from her family.
If Xiaoli wants to change all this, the first thing she needs to do is to get closer to the Liu family.
"The fried egg is here, Xiao Li, come and eat."
Liu Jianghe brought over a white porcelain bowl, and Sun Huiniang looked at him with a loving expression.
Xiao Li picked up her chopsticks and ate the egg in a few bites. After finishing the egg, she even drank the soup.
She took out a handkerchief to wipe her mouth before looking at Sun Huiniang and thanking her.
"Thank you, Mom and Dad, it's delicious."
Sun Huiniang smiled, feeling a warmth in her heart. Her daughter was indeed a sweet and considerate daughter, making her feel comforted.
"If you like it, Mom will make it for you again tomorrow."
Xiao Li shook her head, "We need to save the eggs at home to exchange for money. I only need to eat them once every three days, no, once every ten days."
Sun Huiniang felt even more that her daughter was considerate, and she couldn't help but compare Xiaoli and Yun Yiyi.
Yun Yiyi never gets enough to eat, and she never considers whether she needs to exchange it for money; she wishes she could eat every day.
