Chapter 29: The Unexpected Replay of Past Life

  Chapter 29: The Unexpected Replay of Past Life

  "It's been years since I've gone out, and I didn't know there was such a thing. Compared to my two sisters, the news is so quick!" Yao Cunhui smiled lightly.

  "What do you mean?" Yao Cunmei raised an eyebrow and glared at him angrily.

  "It doesn't make sense!"

  "You——"

  "Alright, alright, you've been strolling around all evening and none of you are tired? Just sit properly and we'll be home soon!" Madam Mao intervened at the right moment as the smell of gunpowder grew thicker.

  "If it weren't for waiting for this clumsy oaf who's never seen the world and can't move his feet, I would have been home long ago! How annoying, the person waiting has worn away all my good mood!" Yao Cunmei grumbled, gave Yao Cunhui a sideways glance, then closed her eyes and leaned back in her seat.

  Yao Cunhui didn't bother with her again, and leaned against the back of the carriage, listening to the soft creaking sound of the wheels, quietly calming his mind, thinking about his own affairs.

  After the carriage of the Yao's mansion left, a slender and straight figure emerged from the crowd, quietly gazing at the departing carriage. Thin lips were pursed, and deep eyes were dimly lit.

  He has been practicing martial arts for many years, his hearing is not like that of ordinary people, and he also listens carefully, what can't be heard?

  It seems her days aren't entirely as "fine" as she said!

  Hui'er, wait for me!

  Shen Que's fist clenched tightly at his side, and his eyes suddenly sank.

  Rakumon-in Temple

  "Mother Rong, take good care of this silver! Use it slowly for now, and let me know when you've used it all up." Yao Cunhui handed over ten 10-tael silver notes to Mother Rong, her bright eyes shining with a smile.

  "Second Miss, where did this come from!" Rong's mother checked the amount on the silver note and her surprised expression changed.

  Everyone was tired tonight, and Hongzhi didn't come to listen at the corner of the wall, so the two of them could have a good talk.

  "Don't worry," Yao Cunhui smiled and said: "In these years, I have studied medical books, polished out a few good prescriptions to sell to the hospital, and earned this silver honestly!"

  Rong's mother only knew that Yao Cunhui spent all her free time reading books every day, and after listening to her explanation, she didn't suspect anything. With a smile on her face, she proudly praised her own daughter for being clever, saying that it was too much, and only took 50 taels of silver, leaving the other 50 taels for Yao Cunhui to keep well. Yao Cunhui smiled and followed her words.

  Rong's mother was indeed a master of diplomacy, her actions were like a gentle stream, without any noise or disturbance, not even Yao Cunhui himself knew what she had done or who she had contacted. However, it was clear that through Rong's mother, she had already been able to grasp the trends of the Yao household, and timely obtain all kinds of information, including the various close and distant relationships within the Yao family, as well as their friendships and social connections, which she understood almost perfectly.

  Mastering these is equivalent to grasping a certain degree of initiative, no longer being at the mercy of others, like a fish on the chopping board, subject to the butcher's whim, cut whenever and wherever he pleases.

  These two days, Yao Cunhui accidentally caught a cold and had a slight cough. She was afraid of passing the illness to Yao Shizan, and since her body was somewhat weak and powerless, she went to Yao Shizan's place less often, only letting Rong Ma or Hong Lian and Hong Zhi go over twice a day.

  "How is the young master doing? What are you doing at this hour?" Yao Cunhui was reclining on a long couch, covered with a thin blanket up to her waist, wearing a pale rose-red soft satin dress that fit loosely on her body, revealing her slender collarbone and fair neck, looking quite pitifully beautiful like a sick beauty.

  "Master just said he was going to come over and see Second Miss, but then Third Miss and Cousin Miss took the two children from the second house's maternal relatives to go fly kites by the lake in the garden!" Hongzhi said with a smile.

  Yao Cunhui first responded with a faint "uh-huh", then suddenly opened her eyes wide, almost jumping up from the bed. She stared intensely at Hongzhi, panting heavily as she said in a stern voice: "You're saying they want to go to the garden by the lake to fly kites? With Second Aunt's relatives' two kids?"

  "...... is!" Hongzhi was startled and stared at Yao Cunhui in surprise, not knowing what she had done wrong again to make her so emotional.

  "Hurry, I'll go take a look!" Yao Cunhui's voice trembled, her body trembled, and her heart was trembling so hard it seemed to be jumping out of her chest!

  She forgot, she almost forgot! How could she forget? How dare she forget!

  "Miss, is it you——"

  "Shut up!" Yao Cunhui glared at Hongzhi with a scowl, trembling as she hastily put on her shoes, casually tying up her hair and rushing towards the shore of Huahua Lake like a gust of wind.

  By the side of Lotus Flower Lake stands a cluster of high and low artificial hills, if everything in past lives had really happened ——

  "A bit higher! A bit higher!"

  "Go left, go left a bit!"

  When Yao Cunhui arrived, Yao Cunmei, Ma Qunfang, Yao Shili, Yao Cunyun and two unfamiliar children, a boy and a girl, about the same age as Yao Shili, were standing under the artificial hill, looking up with their heads raised, waving their arms and shouting loudly.

  Following their gaze, she looked up and suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar. Her blood rushed to her head, making her dizzy and disoriented, with black spots appearing before her eyes, almost causing her to fall to the ground!

  "Zan, don't move, not allowed to move!" Yao Cunhui's heart was tightly clenched, her voice hoarse and mournful, only she herself knew what kind of fear and despair filled her heart at this moment.

  Perhaps it was her unprecedented expression that frightened everyone, and for a moment, all the people were stunned, staring at her with wide eyes, silent as cicadas.

  A tense and silent atmosphere spread out, as if everyone had sensed that something was amiss, including the person who was climbing on the artificial hill, trying to reach for the kite hanging from a corner of the peak.

  "Sister! Second sister! I'm scared, I'm scared!" Yao Shizan suddenly realized her situation, her small body trembling, and she let out a loud wail.

  Yao Shizan cried, and Yao Cunyun, Yao Shili and several younger ones were so frightened that they didn't know what to do. Their small mouths pouted, their eyes filled with fear, and they also wanted to cry but couldn't.

  "Pacify them, don't let them cry." Yao Cunhui gritted her teeth in hatred, her icy gaze fixed on Yao Cunmei and Ma Qunfang.

  Yao Cunmei and Ma Qunfang were intimidated by her aura, involuntarily following suit, and hastily spoke out to comfort Yao Cunyun and the others.

  "Zan'er, don't be afraid, don't be afraid! Second sister is here, second sister has come to save you! Zan'er, don't move, hold on tight, whatever you do, don't move!" Yao Cunhui climbed up the fake mountain, muttering non-stop in her mouth, "Don't be afraid, Zan'er, don't be afraid!" She used both hands and feet to crawl towards Yao Shi Zan.

  "Second sister, second sister!" Yao Shizan cried out, her small hands tightly hugging the protruding stone wall, her big eyes full of fear.

  "Good, good!" Yao Cunhui's heart was about to break into pieces, and an unprecedented anger surged up in her chest. With the interference of Mao's relatives, Yao Shizan really had an accident, and due to the second room, Old Master Yao couldn't do anything about it either. At most, he would scold Yao Cunmei and Ma Qunfang for a while and that was all!

  An accident happened while children were playing together, who could have predicted it?

  Yao Cun Hui slowly approached Yao Shi Zan, his arm finally wrapping around the soft and small body, the suddenly racing heart finally calmed down a little.

  "Second sister..." Yao Shizan's small face turned pale, her eyes brimming with tears as she stared at Yao Cunhui, sobbing: "I'll never dare again!"

  "Okay..." Yao Cun Hui smiled and gestured for Yao Shi Zan to slowly let go, pulling him towards her.

  Just then, a sharp and loud scream came from under the fake mountain. In this screaming sound, Yao Shizan was so frightened that he subconsciously loosened his hand, and his whole body involuntarily fell backwards.

  "Zan er!" Yao Cunhui's mind went blank, she didn't have time to think, and her instincts made her rush over and tightly hug Yao Zan! Her body plummeted downwards, and the intense pain on her back and legs made her unable to breathe. Yao Cunhui was in so much pain that she saw a dazzling white light flash before her eyes, and then she sank into an endless darkness, losing consciousness.

  She only knew that the one who had let out that sharp cry was Ma Qunfang...

  "Good, good!" Fragmented consciousness slowly pieced together from the darkness, Yao Cunhui finally woke up with a daze, muttering to herself, her whole body burning with pain, floating and sinking, as if she was in the midst of a turbulent sea.

  "Miss, you finally woke up!" Gently opening her eyes, what entered her line of sight was a pair of red and swollen eyes and a tear-stained face.

  "Zan'er! Where's Zan'er? How is Zan'er?" Yao Cunhui was startled, struggling to get up, her legs aching with a piercing pain that made her body tense, tears streaming out of her eyes, and she involuntarily lay back down.

  "Second Miss! You're hurt, don't move, don't move!" Hong Lian hastily pressed down on her, supporting her to lie down properly.

  "Red smartweed, young master——"

  "The old master has already sent someone to invite Dr. Liu, Second Miss, Young Master will be fine!"

  "Red Lotus, go and ask around to see how the young master is doing. Go quickly, go quickly!" Yao Cunhui's heart was slightly calmed, but then it tightened up again.

  "Second Miss!" Hong Lian didn't want to go, saying that Rong Ma had already passed away, but Yao Cun Hui insisted. Hong Lian was helpless and could only wipe away her tears and get up to leave.

  Yao Cunhui lay on the bed, watching the receding back of Hong Lian, her heart burning with anxiety. She couldn't be certain whether Yao Shizan had truly escaped danger, and no matter what, she just couldn't feel at ease!

  Her gaze fell on her legs, and a bitter smile was drawn from the corner of her mouth. She hadn't expected that her legs would be injured ahead of time, and if not treated promptly and correctly, they might leave behind a chronic condition and become crippled! Because of her transmigration and rebirth with memories of her previous life intact, some things had indeed changed and were no longer the same as before!

  "Bang!" The door was heavily and roughly pushed open from the outside. Yao Cunhui thought it was Hong Lian coming back, and hastily asked, "How is it?" He raised his head, then paused in surprise, and exclaimed, "Father?"

  Mr. Yao's whole body was filled with a murderous aura, his pale face tightly stretched, the blue veins on his forehead bulging, his eyes wide open, filled with icy coldness, staring at her as if he wanted to torture her to death bit by bit, step by step, he walked towards her.

  "Father..." Yao Cunhui's pupils suddenly contracted, and she called out in a low, hoarse voice. A chill ran up her spine, and at this moment, she finally knew what it meant to have one's hair stand on end! She didn't know what had happened to make Old Master Yao treat her like this, but she knew that it was absolutely not good!
