Rebirth: Ordinary Life and Living

Yaqin heard Zhou Xinyue's words and said, "Your feelings for him are so deep. In fact, I put you in Qianlong Mansion at first because I wanted you to avoid the limelight for a while. Later, I saw that you two had that intention for each other, so I didn't stop you, because girls have to get married when they grow up. I thought he would be a good place for you to go and let you rely on in your life, but he got married without informing me and didn't let me take you away. I asked him several times if he wanted to take you as a concubine, but he didn't express his opinion. I asked him several times if he wanted to take you as a concubine, but he didn't express his opinion. I knew that things might not be as simple as I thought. So I immediately said that I would take you away. He actually postponed it for various reasons, and 10 of the 9 spies I sent out have disappeared. Although the house can no longer accommodate you, I don't want you to be wronged. No matter where I go, I want to take you with me."

Zhou Xinyue felt so warm in her heart after hearing these words, because she knew that there was still an aunt in this world who cared about her and loved her.

My nose felt sore, my eyes turned red, and two lines of clear tears suddenly flowed out.

Yaqin saw her crying and became anxious. She said, "Why are you crying? Have you been wronged? Tell me and I will go and settle accounts with those people."

Zhou Xinyue rubbed her nose, shook her head and said, "No, that's not the case. I just feel that there are still people who care about me in this place. I am very touched and grateful!"

Yaqin smiled and said, "I have watched you grow up. Although I am married, we are still a family after all."

Zhou Xinyue nodded and said in a tearful voice: "Yes, we are still a family."

Zhou Xinyue looked at Yaqin. When she thought of the complicated things in the court and the tense atmosphere in the capital, she couldn't help but want to say a few words to Yaqin.

Zhou Xinyue said to Xing'er, "Go to the kitchen and cook something. Kill two chickens in the backyard and we'll stew them for dinner today."

Xing'er nodded happily and went to the backyard to work.

Zhou Xinyue turned around and stared at Yaqin, giving her a look.

Yaqin probably knew what Zhou Xinyue meant and turned to Liang Buqi and Shuang'er and said, "That girl named Xing'er, she is so weak and has to do so many things. I'm afraid it's a bit strenuous. You two go help her. Liang Buqi, go see if there is any well water and help fetch water. Do more physical work so that the girls don't have to work too hard."

The two people nodded and saluted hurriedly and said, "Yes, Princess."

After they finished talking, they went to the backyard to help Xing'er kill chickens and cook, leaving Zhou Xinyue and Yaqin in the yard.

After seeing the two of them walking around, Yaqin said, "Dan'er, do you have something important to tell me?"

When Zhou Xinyue heard the word "egg", she felt uneasy. It was as if she hadn't heard this name for a long time. Now, hearing it again suddenly, it sounded so harsh.

Zhou Xinyue frowned and said, "First of all, Aunt, please don't call me Dan'er anymore. Don't call me Goudan, Yadan, or Dan'er anymore. Those names represent the past. It's all in the past. I changed my name a long time ago."

Yaqin nodded and said, "Yes, yes, yes, you are right. Auntie has forgotten. You have already participated in the initiation ceremony, so we can no longer call you by those messy names. I should call you the name they gave you, Xingyun."

Zhou Xinyue jumped up anxiously and said, "No, no, no, that's not it. Don't call me by that name. I have cut off all ties with my family and we have nothing to do with each other anymore! I don't want to be called by that name. I have a new name, Zhou Xinyue. Auntie, you can call me Yue'er. Everyone who knows me now calls me Yue'er."

Yaqin smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, you have the final say. No matter what your name is, you are my Dan'er. Okay, I will call you Yue'er from now on."

Yaqin continued: "Okay, you sent them away on purpose because you have something to say to me?"

Zhou Xinyue moved the stool next to Yaqin and whispered, "Aunt, what is the current situation in the government?"

Yaqin heard this and her face changed. She said, "We women shouldn't get involved in these political affairs, let alone talk about them. This is not right, not to mention that it will lead to fatal disasters."

Zhou Xinyue argued, "No, this is not a question of whether to talk about it or not, because these things are related to you, to the eldest lady, and to the third lady who cares about me, so I have to care about it."

Yaqin looked at Zhou Xinyue's appearance and wanted to avoid the topic, so she said, "Yue'er, these things are not something you as a girl should talk about. Be careful not to bring unnecessary trouble to yourself."

Zhou Xinyue shook her head and continued, "No, this matter concerns the people I care about, so I have to pay attention. I don't want anything to happen to you."

Yaqin looked at Zhou Xinyue, who was extremely serious and sincere, and felt as if a huge stone was blocking her heart.

The feeling of wanting to vomit something but being unable to.

The words reached his lips and he swallowed them back.

Zhou Xinyue looked at Yaqin who was hesitant to speak, and said anxiously, "Aunt, I just want to ask you one question, has the current emperor already... "

Yaqin's face changed drastically. She covered Zhou Xinyue's mouth instantly, looked around, and slowly let go after making sure that there was no one around.

Yaqin looked nervous and said in a very small voice: "You, you don't want to live anymore."

Zhou Xinyue also looked around and confirmed that there were no people around before continuing, "Nowadays, some people in the capital are fleeing or leaving. You can definitely feel that the atmosphere is different from before. I think everyone already knows that the political situation will change drastically, but they just can't predict when it will happen."

Yaqin sighed and looked at Zhou Xinyue without saying a word.

Zhou Xinyue continued, "Aunt, you are destined to stand on your husband's side. The same goes for your family."

Yaqin looked at Zhou Xinyue and said gently, "So I wanted to take you away and didn't want to leave you with him, but I couldn't find you because he hid you. The spies I sent out disappeared one after another. I searched for you for a long time, and finally found out that he treated you very well. I was relieved. Who knew that I received news that you were missing, and he married someone else, so I knew you had escaped. I sent people to look for you everywhere, but I couldn't find you. Later, I considered that he might really love you and want to keep you by his side. He won't hurt you, at least you are safe. So I decided to go out of the city to find the prince. I wanted to reunite with the prince and others first, and then think of a way. I didn't expect to meet you today. You don't know how happy I am."

Zhou Xinyue was surprised and asked, "Did your husband come to pick you up?"

Yaqin nodded and said, "Well, he sent someone to wait for me at a post station in the suburbs, but I can't get out now. There's really nothing I can do. Jin Youyuan has blocked the capital, the government is in turmoil, and people are in panic. I'm afraid something bad will happen."
