When Yiyi woke up, she found herself lying on a bed. It was so comfortable and soft. The blanket was made of silk and satin, and it felt very expensive. Where am I? Am I in the sky? Am I dead? What happened just now? Oh right, who is the woman in the photo?
Yiyi, who was lying down, was thinking about many questions. She was still not sure if she was dead or alive, and if this was heaven or the human world. As she was thinking, she suddenly heard a man's voice." You're awake, you're awake. First Madam, Young Miss is awake."
" Aiya, my darling, you're finally awake. You scared your mother." A middle-aged woman with a graceful and elegant temperament hurried over. She was so happy that she cried. She was so excited that she didn't know what to say. She couldn't care less about wiping her tears and looked up and down at Yiyi, who was lying down. She said," My daughter, why didn't you write a letter to your father in advance when you came back from overseas? We could have gone to the dock to pick you up. Your body is weak. You might have been exhausted from the boat ride for several days." If we went to pick you up, you wouldn't have fainted at the door. Fortunately, Ah Fu found out early. Thank God, thank God."
Yiyi seemed to understand. She must have been saved when she fainted, but she wasn't the auntie's daughter. The auntie had mistaken her for someone else. Yiyi struggled to get up, but the auntie quickly helped her up. Ah Fu looked at her and brought her medicine. He said," Miss, drink it. The doctor prescribed it."
" No, no, I'm not your daughter. You've got the wrong person…" Yiyi said weakly. She wanted to know why they had mistaken her for someone else, but she was interrupted before she could finish her sentence." This child has been unconscious for a few days and has a fever." This so-called Yiyi's mother quickly took the medicine and fed it to Yiyi.
Aiya, the medicine is so bitter. Are you trying to harm me? Yiyi pushed the soup bowl away and asked, Where am I? Where's my mask? Where's my bag?"
"Daughter, what are you talking about?"
" I... the things that I carry with me."
"Oh, Ah Fu, quickly bring Miss's things. Sigh, why did you bring those foreign goods home? Things that I've never seen before."
Yiyi took her handbag and a box of face masks from Ah Fu's hands. When she found that everything was there, she took out her phone and wanted to call Wen Hui. Unexpectedly, her phone ran out of battery.
"Can this be charged?"
"What is it? Daughter."
"Charging?"
Everyone looked at each other. No one knew what she was talking about. No, Yiyi felt that things were not that simple. It was definitely not that she had fainted and was saved by someone. Yiyi asked," Where is this?"" This is your home, Miss," Ah Fu replied.
"My house? Where is my house now?"
" Your house is right here." When Ah Fu said that, the surrounding maids all laughed.
Yiyi took a good look at their clothes. They were clothes from the Republic of China period. Then, she looked at her own clothes. It was still the classic dress she had worn when she went out in the morning before the incident. This set of clothes was a brand that Yiyi had bought. It was specially worn when she met clients. It was elegant, dignified, and dignified.
Yiyi seemed to have understood something. If this scene was not filming, then there was only one explanation-she had transmigrated!
She suddenly remembered that Wen Hui had asked her the other day at the coffee shop," Do you want to transmigrate?" She had answered " No " in a straightforward manner." I do," Wen Hui answered naively. Oh my god, the person who wanted to transmigrate didn't transmigrate, but the person who didn't want to transmigrate did. What should he do?
At the thought of this, Yiyi was really at her wit's end. She did not know how to return to the 21st century. She might not be able to go back. She still had her mother and many siblings at home. She really could not bear to leave them. She also had many good friends and Wen Hui. Now, even her phone had run out of battery. The people of the Republic of China had never even heard of electricity. Looking around, they were still lit with oil lamps. Although the decoration of this house could be considered a rich family, However, she was still reluctant to part with her " doghouse." She still had to work tomorrow and earn money. She didn't want to stay here. What should she do?
At the thought of this, Yiyi's body went limp and she fell back onto the bed. Her eyes stared straight at the ceiling.
" Aiyaya, my daughter, what's wrong?" The people at home were so busy that they were in a mess.
" Ah Fu, quickly call the doctor. Why did he faint again?" Eldest Mistress shouted loudly.
" Stop screaming." Yiyi was lying on the bed. She was neither hot nor cold as she said this in despair," I'm not sick."
"Daughter, are you alright?"
"I want to eat, I'm hungry!"
" Alright, alright. Ah Fu, go and make something to eat. Make all the snacks that Miss likes. Also, the American ginseng that Old Master's good friend gave you a few days ago. Go and stew the chicken for Miss. I'll personally supervise the fire."
Eldest Mistress, Ah Fu, and the servant girls had all gone to work. It was much quieter in front of them. Yiyi thought that since she couldn't go back now, the only way was to wait for time and strive to go back alive one day. Now, she could only fill her stomach.
" Miss, I'll take you to bathe and change your clothes." A person dressed as a maid came in and said to Yiyi.
"Who are you?" Yiyi was surprised.
"I was your personal maid, Xiang 'er, before you left for overseas."
" Oh, oh, Xiang 'er." Yiyi looked at the people around her and called the servant girl over softly. She asked," Xiang' er, I have a few questions to ask you."
"Miss, please instruct me."
"Can you tell me what happened at home during this period of time?"
"Yes, I can."
Xiang 'er then told her everything that had happened at home during her stay abroad. Old Master, who was also Yiyi's father, was expanding his business in Shanghai. He had already opened three branches. Old Master's biological sister, who was also Yiyi's second aunt, got married a few years ago. It was said that she married a newspaper editor and had already given birth to three children. The old man's two younger brothers also got married one after another…
Yiyi understood from Xiang 'er's words that she had a second aunt, two uncles, and a biological brother. Her " father " was very rich, but she didn't know what he looked like. If he was very handsome, wouldn't he become the " national husband "? Haha, after transmigrating to this home, at least I don't have to work to support myself. It's not bad to have money.
After showering and changing, the food was almost ready. Yiyi changed into the clothes and hairstyle of the Republic of China. She looked in the mirror and felt that she was really a beauty. When they arrived at the main hall and were about to eat, a middle-aged man walked in from the courtyard. He looked majestic, dignified, and dressed well. When he saw Yiyi, he said with a smile," It's been so many years since we last met. Menglin has grown into a big girl."
Yiyi understood that her name in the Republic of China was Xia Menglin.
Since Yiyi has already transmigrated to the Republic of China, in order to fit the plot, we will call her "Xia Menglin" here.
Meng Lin was a clever girl. When she saw that her father liked her so much, and it had been so many years since they last met, she naturally called out sweetly," Father." Then, everyone sat down and did not have time to eat. As the father, he kept sizing up his daughter, asking about her well-being. He even asked how she was doing in English literature.
" Fortunately, I used to use English a lot at work," Meng Lin thought.
Just like that, in the harmonious atmosphere of eating and chatting, the father expressed his deep longing for his daughter. He expressed that his daughter had matured after studying abroad. She had learned the foreign language and could come back to do business with him.
Meng Lin really liked this opportunity. She had always wanted to be a boss. Now that she was learning how to do business with her boss's father, she was very willing to do so. She agreed immediately and expressed her willingness to use her foreign language to help her father open up business channels abroad. The father was naturally happy to hear that.
Meng Lin looked around. There was only one big table and everyone was eating together. It was rare to see the master and many servant girls eating at the same table. He sat between Old Master and Madam, and Madam kept putting food into his bowl. Meng Lin felt a little curious and asked," Father, where's my big brother?"
Oh, your big brother is in Shanghai."
"Are these the only maids in our house?"
"It's almost the first of October. Many maids have asked for leave to go back to their hometown to visit the graves. There are not many people at home now, so one table is enough."
"But…"
"Do you think that Master and the servants shouldn't eat at the same table?" Master saw through Meng Lin's doubts.
Meng Lin stopped talking. She really wanted to know what kind of answer this "father" would give.
"Your grandfather was born in a commoner's family and started from scratch with his own hard work. In the beginning, he started as an errand boy for a rich merchant. Later on, the rich merchant trusted him very much when he saw that he was honest. The rich merchant had no descendants and passed the family business to him before he died. Because he started as a waiter, he never forgot his roots and treated his servants well. This kind of family style was passed down."
In an instant, Meng Lin was filled with admiration for his grandfather. "Where is he?"
"Haha, he's eighty-three years old now, and his body is still quite strong. He was currently in Shanghai. I'll bring you to see him after a while."
Meng Lin was extremely happy. From this day onwards, she had been looking forward to meeting this highly respected grandfather.
The dinner ended in a harmonious atmosphere. Meng Lin had just joined this big family, so he knew nothing about the family's past grudges. Such a big family business was definitely not as peaceful as it seemed on the surface, because many novels said that such a family was secretly bloody. It was just that he did not know who was the good guy and who was the bad guy, nor did he know who was on his side. No, he was not a member of this family. His only mission was to return to the 21st century, not to get involved in such a family feud. Although my "father" is very rich, he is not my biological father. I should not covet his property. I can learn how to do business from him, and I can also help him with my foreign language. I shouldn't think too much about anything else.
Meng Lin returned to her room and opened the window. The cool breeze blew in and she felt really comfortable. At this moment, she really missed her family, her family in the 21st century. She suddenly realized that she had always been pursuing wealth to change her poor life. Now that she had a chance to inherit a lot of wealth, she began to miss her family.
" Maybe, wealth is important, but it doesn't mean that wealth will bring happiness," Meng Lin muttered to himself.
It was late at night. Who would she meet tomorrow? What would happen? Would she transmigrate again? Would she transmigrate back…She really didn't dare to think about it. She only wanted to learn some skills and find a way to leave this place. However, she had a vague feeling that since she had transmigrated to this family, her life would not be so simple. Life in the future would not be peaceful.
