Rebirth of the Return of Chu

When Qin Yuanyi was not around, Mu Chu felt very bored every day.

Gu Qing and the others went back to Kongling Mountain, leaving Xiaotao and me alone.

On the seventh day of the seventh month, Xiao Tao ran to Mu Chu excitedly and said, "Miss, today is the Qiqiao Festival. The streets are very lively. Shall we go outside and take a look?"

When Mu Chu heard her say that, he was also moved. Then he remembered that even in modern times, the Chinese Valentine's Day is also celebrated as Valentine's Day, but the person he wanted to see was not around.

Mu Chu asked Xiao Tao to dress her up, combed her hair into a flowing bun, changed into a white dress, and took Xiao Tao out.

Walking on the street and looking at the bustling crowd, Mu Chu felt even more uncomfortable. He always felt that the bustle belonged to others, and he felt lonely when that person was not around.

Xiao Tao was so happy that she picked up the little gadgets around her and showed them to Mu Chu one by one. The two of them bought things as they walked.

Walking to the busy Rainbow Bridge, the bridge was crowded with people. There were many small stalls on both sides of the bridge, selling all kinds of groceries, snacks, fortune tellers, and tea...

The walkway in the middle of the bridge is bustling with people, some riding in sedan chairs, some walking, and some walking in groups. Standing on the bridge, feeling the evening breeze on your face, and looking at the twinkling river lanterns in the river, you feel a special feeling in your heart.

After visiting several stalls and walking on the bridge, I saw many people releasing river lanterns. The uncle selling river lanterns called out to them: "Girls, light a river lantern and make a wish. It is very effective."

Mu Chu was also very curious: "Okay, then I'll have one."

Then he asked for three river lanterns and gave one to Xiao Tao: "Xiao Tao, this is for you. Make a wish."

Xiao Tao took it happily, then shook her head: "Miss, I can't write."

Mu Chu suddenly remembered: "How about this, I'll help you write it, you tell me what you want to write."

Xiao Tao thought for a long time but couldn't think of anything. Mu Chu said, "You have to write to your parents and relatives, right?"

Xiao Tao shook her head: "I was sold by my parents when I was young. I have forgotten what they look like. I don't want to pray for them."

Mu Chu felt sorry for Xiao Tao. Seeing that she was unhappy, he joked, "Then I'll help you write a story to help you find your ideal husband soon."

Xiao Tao blushed even more when she heard this.

Mu Chu didn't care about her. Seeing that she didn't refuse, he helped her write: "I hope you can find a good man soon, Xiaotao."

He left two lanterns for himself, one was written for himself with "May you always be by my side", and then he wrote one for Qin Yuanyi with "May everything go as you wish, and be safe and smooth".

Then they happily went to the river and released the river lanterns. Just as they released one, Xiaotao's river lantern flipped over.

Mu Chu hurriedly reached out to hold the river lantern, but accidentally slipped and fell into the river.

In his previous life, Mu Chu could swim, so he was not very scared when he fell in. It was just that the clothes he wore in ancient times were a bit cumbersome, so it was a bit difficult for him to turn over.

While she was struggling, a black figure jumped into the river and pulled Mu Chu out of the river without saying a word. After Mu Chu came out, she sat on the shore and spit out water. Xiao Tao immediately stepped forward, patted her on the back, and sobbed, "Miss, are you okay? I was scared to death."

Mu Chu shook his head and coughed violently a few times before he managed to say, "I'm fine."

Mu Chu rushed towards the man in black again: "Who asked you to save me? I could have come up by myself, but you forced me to drink several gulps of water."

The man in black spoke slowly: "I'm saving you, but you don't even appreciate it."

Mu Chu glanced at him, wiped the water off his face, and said coldly: "Who saves people by dragging them face down into the water? I could have gotten ashore by myself, but you pressed my head down without any explanation. Don't you check to see if they need your help before saving them? You almost drowned me."

The man in black found it very interesting that she didn't appreciate it. How many women tried their best to get close to him, but this ungrateful woman complained even though he saved her.

The man in black smiled and said, "Hey, whose daughter are you?"

Mu Chu didn't want to pay attention to him either, so he stood up, walked up to him and said rudely: "Why do you care about me? Go away."

Just as he finished speaking, the guards behind him suddenly appeared and put a knife to Mu Chu's neck, but he waved his hand to signal them to retreat, and the two guards retreated behind him again.

The man in black said to Mu Chu: "Okay, you don't have to tell me, but you can just tell me your last name, right?"

Mu Chu glared at him angrily: "I don't have a name, sir, you should find someone else to talk to. I want to go home."

So he took Xiaotao home angrily.

After Mu Chu left, the man in black picked up the lamp on the ground, looked at the words written on it, and a cunning look flashed in his eyes. "Qin Muchu, come here, check for me, whose daughter Qin Muchu is?" A guard stepped forward to receive the order.

Mu Chu didn't know that because of this incident, the fate of her and Qin Yuanyi was pushed in another direction.
