Rebirth: Ordinary Life and Living

Xiaoju and Fanxing took the order and slowly entered the ruins to search.

After all, the two girls were not very strong, and before they knew it, it was dark. They still dug out many things from the ruins.

But Zhou Xinyue checked them one by one, and none of them were what she wanted, they were all unimportant.

Zhou Xinyue sighed and said, "Okay, Xiaoju, Xing'er, stop looking. Maybe the things I want are no longer there. Let's go back. You two have worked hard today."

Xiaoju and Fanxing nodded and were about to go back with Zhou Xinyue. Suddenly, when they were leaving, Xiaoju got pricked in the foot by something and cried out "ouch".

Zhou Xinyue was nervous and said, "Xiaoju, what's wrong with you?"

Xiaoju quickly replied: "I don't know what pricked my foot. It hurts."

Zhou Xinyue said worriedly, "Okay, stop looking and come out quickly. When we go back, let Doctor Yuanzhi take a look and treat him quickly."

Xiaoju suddenly said, "Wait a minute. It looks like a hairpin. I'll dig it out. Miss, please wait for me for a moment."

When Zhou Xinyue heard it was a hairpin, she was a little surprised and quickly said, "Xing'er, go and help." Fanxing had already retreated from the ruins, and hurriedly ran in to help Xiaoju dig out the hairpin.

After digging for a while, I finally dug it out.

When two little hands and faces covered in dust and black handed the hairpin to Zhou Xinyue, Zhou Xinyue instantly burst into tears.

First of all, they were both sweating and dirty. Zhou Xinyue was very moved, and what made her even happier was that although the hairpin had been deformed and the flowers on it had fallen off, it was no longer recognizable, but Zhou Xinyue could still tell at a glance that this was the hairpin that Jin Youyuan had given her.

Zhou Xinyue's heart was excited. She held the hairpin that she had finally found with trembling hands and nodded continuously. She said excitedly, "Xing'er, Xiaoju, you have worked hard. I really thank you for helping me find this hairpin again."

In fact, Zhou Xinyue was not really reluctant to part with it. Perhaps this hairpin was just a thought, because it was the first gift she received when she came to this world.

Why she insisted on finding this hairpin, in fact, she herself didn't understand, maybe she just wanted to keep a memory as a souvenir.

Soon, they returned to the courtyard.

Xiaolan quickly brought up food and drinks, and also boiled several large buckets of hot water so that Fanxing and Xiaoju could take a comfortable bath.

Xiaomei hurried to Zhou Xinyue's room and said, "Miss, Shi Huang sent a message saying that the prince will not be back tonight and will stay at Concubine Li's place, so you don't have to wait for the prince tonight."

Zhou Xinyue was drinking soup. She gently put down the bowl and said softly, "I understand."

Xiaomei looked at Zhou Xinyue who was a little lonely and couldn't help but said, "Girl, that Concubine Li is really an extraordinary person. You have to be careful."

Zhou Xinyue looked at Xiaomei's concerned eyes and smiled, "Xiaomei, thank you for your concern. But the real mistress of this palace should be her. It is only natural for the prince to stay with her. I am an ordinary woman with no name or status. This is a fact that cannot be changed."

Xiaomei lowered her head, not knowing what to say.

Zhou Xinyue sighed and said, "I know you care about me, but this is the truth. I'm full. Please take these away."

After Xiaomei bowed, she cleared away the dishes.

Zhou Xinyue walked to the dressing table and picked up the black and deformed hairpin, her eyes dark and her expression lonely.

She walked to the desk and described the hairpin bit by bit according to her memory of its original appearance.

I drew one picture after another. This one didn’t look like the real thing, and that one didn’t look like the real thing either. Before I knew it, I had drawn more than 20 pictures.

After careful observation and consideration, Zhou Xinyue finally picked out a drawing that most resembled the hairpin in her memory.

The next day, Zhou Xinyue took the blueprint out of the hospital and went to the northeast corner of the palace to find a repair craftsman. She asked them to take the blueprint and the deformed black hairpin and find someone outside to re-make it according to the shape of the hairpin in the blueprint.

The craftsmen nodded and hurried out of the hospital to find someone to repair the hairpin.

Zhou Xinyue was looking forward to and waiting in her heart.

On the way back to the hospital, Xiaolan whispered, "Miss, I heard that Fu Huan has been in a coma since she hit her head against the door. The prince has found many famous doctors but none of them could cure her. Even Doctor Yuanzhi couldn't help. Maybe this is retribution."

Zhou Xinyue didn't say anything.

Since that day when Jin Yourong stayed at Li Yingying's place, he stayed with her for several days in a row, and Li Yingying recovered day by day.

When Jin Yourong was on his way out of the house to handle something, someone reported that the young lady asked someone in the house to take a blueprint to repair a hairpin, and then the person showed the blueprint to Jin Yourong.

Jin Yourong took a look and said, "Let her do whatever she wants!"

The man took the order and left.

Ever since Jin Yourong stayed at Li Yingying's place, his troubles were solved. There was no problem with food and fodder, and the soldiers under him no longer had to eat plain porridge, and the problem of insufficient funds in many places was solved.

But new troubles arose. Fu Huan's elder brother Fu Changjie led his soldiers to attack Jin Yourong's grain depot in Sanjipo and killed nearly a thousand left cavalrymen, making Jin Yourong furious.

The weather is getting colder and colder. It is already the transition period between autumn and winter. Some of the trees in the yard have lost their leaves, making the yard look very desolate.

Zhou Xinyue was walking in the yard with her huge belly.

Xiaomei and Fanxing supported her on both sides. Xiaomei said happily, "Girl, time flies. You are about to give birth. Doctor Yuanzhi said it will be during this period."

Zhou Xinyue walked with difficulty and said, "Yes, I also feel that time flies so fast. I didn't expect that I will meet my child soon. I am so looking forward to it."

Xiaomei said happily: "Medical Officer Yuanzhi said that we have to supervise the girl to walk around the hospital more often during this late stage of pregnancy, so that you can give birth to the baby smoothly in the future."

Fanxing nodded happily.

Zhou Xinyue continued walking in the yard with a smile.

Ever since that time when he stayed overnight at Li Yingying's place, Jin Yourong sometimes went to Yunxiao's place, sometimes to Yueyao's place, sometimes to Xu Huibao's place, and sometimes came to accompany Zhou Xinyue. In short, he tried to treat them fairly, which invisibly calmed down a lot of anger in the backyard.

Jin Yourong has been busy outside these days, and Doctor Yuanzhi not only has to take care of Zhou Xinyue but also Fu Huan. Fu Huan is still in a coma and shows no signs of waking up.

The backyard is still under lockdown, and it will be lifted in a month.
