The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

Tsuyoko also said that during this period, Xiaoye must be raised under the name of the heir. The heir's wife must treat Xiaoye as her own child and cannot give birth to her own children.

At the same time, all the Ye family members need to treat Xiao Ye well and let her treat every member of the Ye family as a relative.

In this way, even if she becomes a house-guarding ghost and harbors resentment, she will still protect the Ye family because of her kindness when she was alive.

From then on, Xiao Ye was the little darling raised in the Ye family in Guanzhou.

She never wore anything other than red.

She called the eldest son of the Ye family "Dad" and his wife "Mother".

Her mother was forced to abort her baby because of her. She was injured and could no longer have children.

But A'niang did not take out her anger on her child. Instead, she gave her all her motherly love.

Her mother was a stranger to her husband for nearly six years, but she was always good to her.

It can be said that A Niang is the only one in her world.

But when A Niang was making dumplings for Xiao Ye, she asked her, "Xiao Ye, do you remember what you said your name was when you first came to the Ye family?"

Xiao Ye thought for a moment and said, "Chu Jun, my name is Tang Chu Jun."

"Yes, your name is Tang Chujun." Ah Niang's voice became more and more rapid and her voice became lower and lower. "You are not Xiao Ye Zi, your name is Tang Chujun. Remember?"

Little Leaf nodded, "Remember, remember, mother."

A'niang hugged the soft little girl, tears streaming down her face, "Little Ye, I don't want to leave you, but I can't protect you. I'm incompetent, and everything will depend on you from now on..."

That night, her mother took her away.

When they fled to the river, A'niang stuffed her into a horse-drawn carriage loaded with grain, gave the coachman ten taels of silver, and begged him to send the girl away.

A Niang handed her a bundle and told her, "Run as far as you can, as long as you are far away from Guanzhou, anywhere is fine."

Then, A Niang resolutely and deliberately boarded a big ship.

That was the second time Shi Anxia left her mother.

The first time was when she was separated from her mother, but her memory of the two-year-old was already vague. She could not remember anything else except the words "Tang Chujun".

This time, she left A Niang, and she knew how sad it was, and she also understood that A Niang was exchanging her life for hers.

A Niang will be caught by the Ye family sooner or later, and the consequences will be disastrous.

But at the age of eight, she already knew how to weigh the pros and cons, and knew how to cherish the chance to survive.

She couldn't go back to find A Niang. If she went back, A Niang's efforts would be in vain; if she went back, both of them would suffer.

Shi Anxia had no other way out.

But people in this world are so vicious!

The grain-carrying coachman actually abandoned the young Shi Anxia halfway on the road in the wilderness.

The baggage and silver her mother gave her were all stolen by the coachman.

Shi Anxia walked alone from the wild mountains and wilderness along the small paths and big roads all the way to Guanzhou Pucheng.

Her shoes were worn out and her clothes were tattered, like a little beggar. She stood pitifully beside a bun stall waiting for the buns to be cooked.

Those steaming buns are so delicious.

The buns were finally cooked, but she had no money.

The shop owner said "bad luck" and asked her to leave.

Shi Anxia blinked her tearful eyes and pouted her lips and said, "Uncle, I'm hungry, please give me a bun."

The man selling buns stepped forward and kicked her to the ground, "Get out! You little beggar! You are affecting my business!"

She limped a long way away when a woman called her, "Little beggar, come and eat dumplings."

What she ate was this kind of open-mouthed dumplings, which were sweet and spicy, and the filling inside tasted the same as the ones her mother made.

She was hungry, so she ate a big bowl of food in one gulp.

The woman was very kind. She washed her face, asked her to sit for a while, and said she would take her to eat something delicious and change her clothes.

Having experienced many dangers in the world, Shi Anxia has acquired the ability to read people's expressions. She always feels that women look at her as if they are looking at commodities, so she just sits there calmly.

As soon as the woman entered the backyard, she followed quietly.

She heard the woman saying to another man, "It's a good embryo, it can be sold for a good price."

At that time, Shi Anxia was no longer afraid of hearing such words. She just rolled her eyes, took all the steamed buns in the kitchen and ran away.

Later, when Anxia became the most noble woman in Beiyi after many twists and turns, the woman she called "Aniang" had already passed away.

It is said that after the Ye family captured her mother, they forced her to tell them where Xiao Ye had gone. They even resorted to lynching, but still failed to pry her mother open her mouth.

Her mother was tortured to insanity and locked in the basement for many years. Later, no one cared about her and she starved to death in the basement.

Empress Dowager Huizheng was furious and sent the Imperial Guard to arrest 154 members of the Ye family.

All the Ye family members who were involved in and had handled the "house-guarding ghost" were executed. Among them, there were also people who had been "good" to her.

But she knew that kind of "good" was completely different from her mother's good.

They only treated her well because she was a "ghost embryo". Only A Niang treated her well with all her heart.

When the harmful Feng Shui master Tsuyoko learned that the ghost embryo had escaped, he realized that something was wrong and fled quickly, hiding his identity and never appeared in the world again.

Because Jin Yangzi had already calculated that he would be attacked by the "ghost embryo". That would be a fatal attack!

In the end, Jin Yangzi was caught by Mr. Yang Xuan himself. Jin Yangzi was the junior brother of Mr. Yang Xuan who was expelled from the sect.

Jin Yangzi had evil intentions and had harmed people more than once, so he was sentenced to death by Queen Dowager Huizheng.

In this life, Shi Anxia will not let him go either, and has asked Mr. Yang Xuan to take the officials to arrest him.

Soon, she will settle accounts with the Ye family.

Shi Anxia just didn't expect that she could actually eat open-mouthed dumplings today, which made her thoughts churn uncontrollably.

A warm big hand quietly held Shi Anxia's cold hand, and the voice was also soft and gentle, "Madam, the dumplings are ready, go eat some?"

Shi Anxia said "hmm" and sat back in her seat.

The open-mouthed dumplings really were dumplings with small mouths. Shi Anxia ate them, and her heart ached with every bite.

She missed her mother...

Even when they got on the carriage and returned home, Shi Anxia's tears were still in her eyes, neither falling nor disappearing.

Cen Yuan couldn't help but hug the little girl into his arms, gently resting his chin on her hair, and said in a hoarse voice, "Bao'er, the person you are looking for has been found."

In fact, he had already had some clues, but he just didn't have the heart to tell the girl.

The mother was tortured to the point that all her ten fingers were broken, her legs could not walk, and even one of her ears was cut off.

This shows how cruel the Ye family was to A Niang at that time.

How could he bring a mother like this to the little girl?

He couldn't bear to see her cry.

But the little girl's suppressed tears still made him want to tell her impulsively.

At least, she can still take care of her mother...

Sure enough, the little girl's tears started to fall, but her eyes were sparkling. "Really?"

Cen Yuan didn't dare to look into the little girl's eyes and just said "hmm" softly.

The little girl understood immediately, and her heart sank to the bottom of the valley. She said in a deep voice, "Is it... that my mother is not well?"
