Chapter 1 Chapter 1 Just Traveling Through Time
"Miss, how pitiful! A beautiful young lady turned into a peasant girl after waking up from sleep."
"Yeah, if it were me, I would hang myself too. This is totally unacceptable."
"I heard that the real young lady is on her way back. What do you think this lady in the house will do?"
"After all, he was raised since childhood, so he should stay in the mansion."
"I don't think so. Today I said that Madam asked Butler Zhao to go out, and I don't know what he's going to do. I think he probably won't stay."
Gu Jiayue lay on the bed with a dejected look on her face. Through the light blue bed curtains, she listened to the giggling sounds outside and looked at the slightly low roof with dull interest.
She raised her hand to gently stroke her still aching neck, then sighed heavily, muttering helplessly, "I've caught up with this trend."
She just played games for a few days during the New Year holiday. When she came to her senses, she found that the lesson plan for the next semester had not been written yet. However, school was about to start the day after tomorrow, so she frantically wrote the lesson plan for a whole day and night.
How did he end up dying suddenly?
Is it true that in this day and age, even rushing to prepare lesson plans is a capital crime for teachers?
Master Qingtang, we're so wronged! Who knew the teacher's recovery period would be so quick? She felt like she only had two days of fun, so why is school starting already?
Unfortunately, no matter how Gu Jiayue shouted, there was only the chattering gossip of those girls around.
She put down the shawl in her hand awkwardly, she didn't dare to die.
What if this death is real?
"It seems that there is really no going back."
It was a pity that she had spent years of hard-earned savings to buy this apartment, but the decoration was not yet completed and she had not even had a chance to live in it for a day.
And she hasn't had the chance to show off the honor of being an outstanding teacher that she just won.
Not to mention the promotion and salary increase promised by the principal, which she has not yet received.
Now...it's all bubbles~~~
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but worry about the students who had been with her for three years.
It is the critical period of senior high school. Without her supervision and guidance, will the students' grades plummet?
All kinds of thoughts tangled in her mind, giving her a splitting headache.
"You little rascals, who gave you the permission to talk nonsense here? If you dare to say another word, I will notify Butler Zhao to sell you out. I'll see where you can find a master like this young lady!"
A young female voice sounded, scaring the people at the door so much that they dared not speak.
"Sister Hua Chao, we didn't do it on purpose. We were just worried about the young lady."
"Yes, sister, don't be angry. We will pay attention next time."
The people who were gossiping outside the door kept begging for mercy from the woman who came later.
But this woman was also quite formidable. "Oh, are you scared now? Go find Madam Cai and receive your punishment. If I were to take you there myself, the only option left would be selling you off."
"In this mansion, if you want to live long, the most important thing is not to discuss the master's affairs, no matter whether what is inside is true or false. As long as we are still in the mansion, we must serve him attentively!"
"Yes, thank you for your guidance, sister."
The people outside the door retreated, and Gu Jiayue finally got half a minute of peace and quiet.
She touched her neck and felt a piercing pain there.
Combining the memories she received with the conversations of the women outside the door, she understood her current situation.
She is now the fake daughter of the Marquis's family in an awkward situation.
Gu Jiayue adjusted herself to a comfortable position and began to sort out the chaotic memories in her mind.
Originally the legitimate daughter of Marquis Xuande, she had been pampered since childhood, living a life of luxury in the Marquis's mansion. Everyone in the family treated her like a treasure, and even her much younger brother, whenever he received something good, would first think of giving it to her.
She was outstandingly talented and enjoyed the reputation of a talented woman in the outside world. She was also praised by the queen of the time for her virtue and art.
But half a month ago, the Marquis' Mansion received a letter stating that the current Marquis's daughter was a fake, and the real daughter was suffering in the countryside thousands of miles away.
Although no one in the Marquis's residence believed the letter, the Marquis still sent his confidant to investigate. When the confidant arrived at Gujia Village, he immediately confirmed that the child was the Marquis' daughter.
This was because she was 70% similar to the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion, and the remaining 30% was very similar to the Marquis, as if she had combined the best qualities of both parents.
Although he was wearing coarse linen clothes, his temperament was hard to conceal in his every move.
After receiving the letter, everyone in the Marquis' Mansion was immediately caught in a dilemma.
On one side is his biological child who has suffered for many years, and on the other side is his adopted daughter who has been carefully educated and has deep feelings for him. How to properly arrange for them without hurting them has become a thorny problem.
It happened that the original owner came to pay his respects and heard about this matter by chance.
The fifteen-year-old girl was suddenly filled with guilt and fear.
Reason told her to leave on her own initiative and not to embarrass the Marquis and his wife, but emotionally she couldn't let go of the family ties she had built over the past decade. Under this intense ideological conflict, the original owner fell seriously ill.
The Marquis's Mansion searched for famous doctors everywhere, but even the imperial physicians in the palace were helpless and said that this was a heart disease that could only be cured with heart medicine.
In Gu Jiayue's opinion, the original body might have suffered from depression and fell into a dilemma of self-isolation.
Later, when everyone in the Marquis' Mansion learned the cause of the illness, they all comforted the original owner and promised not to send her away. When the real daughter returned to the mansion, they would make her the second daughter and announce to the public that the Marquis' wife had given birth to twins.
The original owner gradually accepted it. She only wanted to stay in the Marquis' Mansion to fulfill her filial piety. When the real daughter returned, she would return everything and move to a remote courtyard to live without fighting or competing.
However, there are many gossipy people in the Marquis' Mansion, and the concubines, illegitimate sons and others left behind by the old Marquis are bound to gossip.
"Hmph, I think she's just greedy for the wealth of the Marquis' Mansion, so she's feigning illness and refusing to leave."
"That's right. You say you can't bear to leave the Marquis' wife, but in fact you can't bear to leave your status as a daughter. How hypocritical."
"And her fiancé, the son of the Imperial Tutor and the Crown Prince's tutor, how could she bear to let go of such a man?"
"I told you she's hypocritical. When the real daughter comes back, she'll suffer."
"Although the biological daughter has not been educated, this adopted daughter who has taken over the magpie's nest has been doted on by the stepmother for more than ten years. If there is a real dispute, the stepmother will definitely be partial to her. Then there will be a good show to watch."
The original owner heard these bad words outside the pavilion and collapsed to the ground, filled with sorrow.
She originally thought that as long as she gave in and stopped fighting, everything would be fine. However, she didn't expect that in the eyes of others, her staying had ulterior motives.
She was worried that the real daughter would also have the same misunderstanding, which would cause constant family disputes and her mother would be in a dilemma. If her brothers, sisters-in-law and younger brothers favored her, it would be unfair to the real daughter.
In a state of despair, the original owner returned to the yard and found a rope to hang himself.
In the end, it benefited her, a ghost from another world who died suddenly.
"What a silly girl."
Gu Jiayue couldn't help but sigh at the original owner's extreme behavior.
This was not the original owner's fault. She was still an infant at that time, and the change of positions was purely accidental. Why was she so decisive?
If he behaves like this, how will he deal with himself after his daughter returns home?
When everyone in the Marquis' Mansion recalls this incident, they will definitely feel a thorn in their hearts, and it will not be easy for Zhen Qianjin to enter the family afterwards.
Gu Jiayue sighed softly again. If the original owner was her student, she would definitely be someone who needed special attention.
In her opinion, the quiet and unobtrusive students in the class are often the most likely to develop psychological problems and even go to extremes. Such students need constant attention, guidance and comfort.
Gu Jiayue was lost in thought when she heard the sound of a door being pushed open.
She turned around and saw a girl of the same age as her original self. From her memory, she knew that this was her personal maid, Hua Chao.
Seeing that Gu Jiayue was awake, the little girl quickly put down the tray in her hand and rushed over. "Miss, you are finally awake."
Gu Jiayue shrank back slightly, fearing that the little girl would crush her with every move.
Fortunately, although the girl is young, she can control her behavior well.
She was sitting on the edge of the bed, tears streaming down her face. "Miss, please don't do anything stupid. It's just a few words from others. As long as the Marquis and his wife don't say anything, no one else can make a fuss."
Gu Jiayue was about to say something when a burst of electric sound came from her mind.
"Zizizizi, the sign-in system is binding the host..."
"Zizi, the host's health is low, the system cannot complete the binding."
"The system automatically disengaged."
After being stunned for a few seconds, she finally realized that the thing that was talking to itself in her brain just now was the system?
The heroine must have skills to travel through time and space with the golden finger!
Gu Jiayue held her head in her hands, watching in disbelief as the glowing ball flew away from her mind.
She threw back the quilt and ran out after the glowing thing regardless of anything.
"Don't run! Explain clearly what you mean by low health."
"Don't give up easily when you encounter difficulties. Can we try a few more times?"
"Come back, come back! I should still be able to be saved."
