"Do you know how difficult it is to exchange fates? Not only do I need to protect you for forty-nine days, but your eldest daughter also needs to endure torment day after day in the formation, feeling as if a thousand arrows are piercing her heart every moment!"
Master Liu sighed repeatedly.
“Master, she can handle it. My eldest daughter can actually handle it. I am her father and have raised her for three years. Don’t I know what kind of person she is? As long as I bring it up with that woman, Chan’er will definitely agree!”
Master Huai knelt down on the ground with a thud.
Then, as if he had just thought of something, he hurriedly ran into his room and pulled out a gold ingot from under his bed.
"Master, please accept this small token of our appreciation. Please be sure to help us!"
"Of course, of course!" Master Liu calmly slipped the gold ingot into his sleeve.
"Then wait a moment. I will come in three days to perform a spell on your daughter and son, swapping their fates."
"Remember, this kind of thing is immoral and against human ethics. You must never tell anyone about the swapped destinies, or your Huai family will surely suffer a devastating disaster!"
"Master, rest assured, I will not reveal a single word of what I said here today. I look forward to your arrival in three days!"
"Master Huai said with a smile."
After sending the master over, he turned to look at his twin children, a confident smile on his face.
"Master, should we inform Madam about this?" the old woman asked anxiously.
"Nonsense! Didn't you hear what the master said? Not a single word can be revealed, not even the madam!" The man's eyes widened in anger.
"You'd better keep your mouth shut, or I can't guarantee you'll be alive!"
The old woman instinctively took a few steps back, breathing heavily.
"Where's Xiao Tao?" Grandpa Huai suddenly thought of something, turned around abruptly, but found no trace of her.
Outside the Huai family mansion, Xiao Tao wrapped the little girl in her quilt and walked step by step into the distance, stepping on the snow on the bluestone slabs.
She dared not take too big a step, afraid that she might slip in the snow and hurt the young lady in her arms.
But they dared not linger there, fearing that the master of the mansion would discover them, snatch the little girl from his arms, exchange her fate with someone else, and subject her to the agony of being pierced by a thousand arrows.
"Little Peach, Little Peach, come back quickly! You and Miss are penniless. Even if you run away, where can you go? Come back quickly, you must have misheard!"
"Xiao Tao, get back here right now! Your indenture is with me. Do you want to be a runaway slave? Do you know what happens to those who do?"
One voice after another came from behind. Little Peach shrugged, looking at the little guy in her arms with a flushed face, tears streaming down her face.
What to do? What to do? What can she do to save Xiao Chan? Her young lady is only three years old, still an innocent and ignorant child. How can she bear such suffering?
Just as her figure was about to be spotted by the old woman, a hand reached out from the side and quickly pulled her away.
"Waaah!" Little Peach struggled instinctively.
"Shh, don't talk. Do you want the Huai family to find out?" Zhong Yan covered her mouth.
"Don't worry, I know who you are, and I know who the person you're holding is. My brother and I can take you away from this place!"
