Rebirth of the Return of Chu

Chapter 2: Soul Possessed Chu'er

Suddenly, all the noises around me quieted down.

A cold male voice interrupted Mu Chu's thoughts, it was very magnetic and carried a strong anger, "Stop, who allowed you to marry Chu'er off? Sang Ma, go and bring Chu'er to me."

Mu Chu was a little confused. Didn't I die? What was going on with getting married? She was stunned for a few seconds, and then she felt her eyes light up. She slowly opened her eyes and saw everything. It turned out that she was sitting in a sedan chair, wearing a red wedding dress. The fluttering red in front of her was a red veil.

The one who untied her was a kind-looking middle-aged lady. Could it be that she was not dead? She looked outside the sedan chair and saw the wedding procession. Although there were only about 10 people, it was indeed the wedding procession that you can see in costume dramas.

There was a man standing in front of the team, also in ancient costume, dressed in white, extremely handsome, with a face like a sculpture with distinct features, an angular face that was unusually handsome, thick black hair, a pair of slender peach blossom eyes under a pair of sword-like eyebrows, a high nose, and red lips of moderate thickness. Mu Chu was stunned for a moment.

Is this a hallucination? He wondered in his heart.

When she came to her senses, her mother-in-law had already untied the ropes that bound her. She moved her stiff hands and feet, and looked down to see why her hands and feet were so small. She also felt small, but it was very real, the pain from being tied up. Could it be that she didn't die, but was harmed by her own mother again?

She tried to ask what was going on, but she was too hoarse to speak. At this time, her mother-in-law spoke up, "Sir, the third young lady must have been drugged. She has been tied up for so long, and her body is very weak. She can't speak."

Hearing this, the man in white walked over quickly, his face filled with anger. He yelled at the anxious old woman in purple standing beside the team, "Wang Ma, you are so bold. This is the third young lady of my Qin Mansion. How dare you, a servant, lay hands on her? You have lived too long. Come on, tie her up for me."

The purple-clothed woman collapsed to the ground in fear. Everyone knew that the second son of the Qin family, the eldest son Qin Yuansong, was a general of the first rank, and had fought in the battlefield and made many outstanding achievements. The second son Qin Yuanyi was away from home doing business all year round, rarely came to the mansion, and was very mysterious. It was only known that Qin Yuansong was always protecting him, and even the old lady of the Qin family did not dare to intervene. Now that he had been provoked, it would be very dangerous. No one expected that the second master of the Qin family would come back at this time.

As he spoke, Qin Yuanyi walked towards Mu Chu. Mu Chu looked at him blankly until he picked her up horizontally. Before she could figure out what was going on, her eyes went blurry and she fainted.

Mu Chu dreamed of many memories that did not belong to him. He was born to his father's first wife, Chu. Later, Chu died of complications during childbirth when giving birth to his younger brother, leaving two lives. His father then made Wang, the former concubine, the new lady of the Qin Mansion. Wang was also the old lady's niece.

But her current mother was not kind to her. She was often bullied when she was a child. Most of the time, her father protected her, so she lived a happy life. But everything changed overnight. Her father suddenly became seriously ill, and Wang secretly conspired with the old woman to marry her to the old man of the Sun family as a concubine.

When she woke up again, she saw the antique bed and room. Mu Chu pinched her hand and felt pain. She began to suspect that she had traveled through time.

While thinking about the current situation, the maidservant beside her heard the sound and immediately threw herself on the bed with a crying voice: "Wuwu...Miss, you are finally awake. I am so glad to see that you are okay. Are you feeling unwell? It is all my fault that I did not stop them. They tied me up in the woodshed. I begged them but they did not listen. My head was broken. Mrs. Zhang beside the old woman said she wanted to sell me. Wuwu...If the second young master had not come back, I would never see the young lady again."

Mu Chu looked at the little girl with scars on her hands and a bruised forehead. It seemed that in that strange dream, her name was Xiao Tao. Mu Chu felt inexplicably sad that she was still worried about her mistress even in this state.

She probably didn't know that her mistress was no longer with us, and that another broken soul now lived in this body.

Mu Chu moved his mouth, and his throat was already hoarse enough to make a sound, "Xiao Tao, don't cry, I'm fine, I just had a little brain damage, and I can't remember a lot of things."

"Miss. I'll tell you slowly when you get better. Are you feeling unwell anywhere? What do you want to eat? Oh! Miss, I almost forgot. The second young master said that you should inform him as soon as you wake up. I'll go call him first and tell you later." Xiao Tao said as she hurriedly ran out to the yard, shouting, "Mother Sang, Mother Sang, go tell the second young master that Miss is awake, Miss is awake!"

After a while, Xiao Tao hurried in and threw herself in front of the bed and said, "Miss, you see, I'm a little happy and confused, and I just focused on talking to you. Do you want to eat mung bean cake? I have been preparing it. I made it every day during these days when you were asleep, just wanting you to eat it as soon as you wake up. I'll go get it, wait for me." After saying that, she ran out in a hurry without waiting for Mu Chu to speak.

Xiao Tao had just gone out when Qin Yuanyi, dressed in white, and Mother Sang strode in. They walked to the bed, squatted down, and looked at Mu Chu, whose face was pale, feeling distressed.

"Chu'er, don't be afraid, your uncle is back. I will never let you suffer any grievances again. It's all my fault. I haven't come back all these years and I have failed my sister-in-law's trust. Don't worry, your uncle will protect you in the future." Qin Yuanyi said gently.

Mu Chu was a little moved at once. Even though she knew those words were not spoken to her, she still felt very touched. She couldn't help but feel envious. It turned out that this girl was luckier than herself. At least she had a father who loved her and an uncle who stood up for her at critical moments. These blood-related love were what she no longer had after her father's death. Her nose was sore and tears fell.

Qin Yuanyi gently wiped away her tears, scratched her nose and said softly: "Silly child, why are you crying? You were the little girl who didn't cry when she fell off a tree and broke her leg when she was a child. Why are you crying now?"

Mu Chu did not find any information about this second uncle in the original owner's chaotic memory. Maybe he really left home very early and his memory was blurred. But Mu Chu put away his sadness and said, "Uncle, thank you, I will be fine."

Xiao Tao walked in happily, holding a plate of various foods, and introduced cheerfully: "Miss, this is your favorite mung bean cake, this is lotus soup, and this is gold and jade meatballs, they are all your favorite. Let me help you up, you haven't eaten for several days, you must be starving." As she spoke, she went to help Mu Chu up.

After Xiao Tao said that, he was indeed a little hungry, so he let Xiao Tao help him up. Qin Yuanyi, who was beside him, took the bowl and spoon and fed Mu Chu while saying, "You are not in good health, so you should not eat greasy food. Drink some lotus soup first, and then eat something else later."

Mu Chu felt a little awkward. He could not remember anyone feeding him like this before. He wanted to eat it himself, but his arms were so painful that he could not lift them. So he just accepted it with a blushing face.

Before he finished his bowl of soup, a little maid ran in hurriedly: "Second Young Master, the eldest lady is here."
