"Selling candied haws."
"Selling steamed buns. It's a fragrant steamed bun that has just come out of the steamer."
It was noon. When Zhang Zixun and Qing 'er walked into the most prosperous street in the capital city of Ziyue Kingdom, Minghua Street, under the guidance of the maid Xin' er, the two women could not help but be shocked by the bustling scene here. The streets were bustling with people and the sound of peddling could be heard. All of this made Zhang Zixun, who had just arrived in the ancient world, feel very curious.
"Wow, it's so lively! So this was how it was in ancient times." Zhang Zixun couldn't help but sigh as she walked. At the same time, he ran forward and looked at each stall curiously. Seeing her actions, Qing 'Er did not find it strange, because she had long been used to this young lady's strange behavior these few days. However, the servant girl Xin 'er was different. She frowned slightly and looked at the young miss who was jumping up and down in front of her. In her impression, her young lady had been very quiet since she was young. Her manners were elegant and generous, and she was very decent. She had never been so rude as to jump around on the streets.
"Sister Qing `er, what's wrong with the young miss? He had never been so rude in the past!”Xin `er asked Qing` er in puzzlement. Upon hearing this, Qing 'Er shook her head helplessly.""Princess. Oh, no, I mean your Miss. Ever since I met her, she seemed to have forgotten everything when she woke up from her coma. As for his personality in the past, I don't know.”Saying these words that went against her heart, Qing `er felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. However, since it was the princess who had repeatedly instructed her not to reveal her true identity, she could only say this.
"I see. I wonder if it will get better in the future.”Xin 'er looked at Zhang Zixun and asked worriedly. The Green Girl walked to her side and placed her fair hand on Xin 'er's delicate shoulder. She comforted her,""Don't worry. Isn't Miss doing very well now? Happy and carefree."
"That's right, this kind of Young Miss is not bad. In the past, she had suppressed too much. Old Master and Furen were too strict with her, causing Young Miss to lose a lot of happiness. After this time's Young Miss 'disappearance, I think that Furen and Old Master should have thought it through and will not be so strict anymore.”After Qing 'er's persuasion, Xin' er also smiled.
"Miss, slow down. Be careful not to fall.”Xin 'er walked towards Zhang Zixun. The Green Girl followed closely behind.
"Look, this is the Prime Minister's daughter, Miss Zhang Zixun, right? It was so beautiful! This is the first time I've seen it today. Just like the rumors said, she was as beautiful as a fairy!”Zhang Zixun was laughing and dancing on the street. With her peerless beauty, she would undoubtedly attract the admiration of many people. Of course, she was the daughter of the Prime Minister. These commoners did not dare to have any improper thoughts. It was already a great fortune to be able to take a look at her.
"Miss, let's go quickly. Look, everyone is looking at you!”Xin 'er reminded Zhang Zixun,""Xin 'er has already been out for many days. Now that she has found you, Master and Furen will definitely hope to see you sooner.”
"Got it, long-winded old woman!" Zhang Zixun put down the mask in her hand and said,"Alright, let's go back to see 'father'."
"Mother." Thus, under the reluctant gazes of many men on the street, the three beautiful figures gradually left their sight.
In the Prime Minister's Mansion of Ziyue Kingdom.
"Old Master, this Xin Er girl vowed to go out to look for Xun Er. Why did she go for more than ten days? Should we send someone out to look for him?" In the magnificent hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, there was an antique atmosphere. In front of it was a calligraphy piece by Wang Xizhi. Sitting below was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties. He was dressed in luxurious clothes and his face revealed the dignity of a superior. Without a doubt, this person was the Prime Minister of Ziyue Kingdom, Zhang Heng. Beside him sat a lady in luxurious clothes. She looked to be in her twenties. She exuded the charm of a woman. However, at this moment, his extraordinary face was filled with worry. He seemed to be worried about something. From the woman's words, one could tell that she was Zhang Zixun's mother, the Prime Minister's wife, Shen Mengyi.
"Humph, Xun Er was playful and got lost. It was her own fault. Xin 'er felt that it was her fault. If she wanted to go out and look for him, it was her own business. Such a daughter has completely forgotten all our teachings to her in the past. It's fine if she doesn't want her!”Premier Zhang said angrily.
"Master, how can you say that? After all, she is our daughter! Aren't you worried? Boohoo." As she spoke, Shen Mengyi started to cry softly.
"Cry, cry, cry. You only know how to cry all day. So what if she didn't come back? At most, they would pretend that they never had such a daughter!”The Prime Minister shouted angrily, stood up, and left with a flick of his sleeves. Only Madam was left crying silently. After being married for so many years, how could Shen Mengyi not know her husband's temperament? He had always had a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Although he said that he was determined, he was actually very worried. After all, she was his daughter. Which parent in the world wouldn't worry about their child?
"Daughter, where are you? Do you know how worried I am about you and how much I miss you? Come back quickly. In the future, I won't be too strict with you anymore!”Shen Mengyi said sadly.
"Madam, Madam, Miss is back, Miss is back!”At this moment, a servant girl suddenly ran in from outside the door and spoke in an agitated and unclear tone.
"What? What did you say? Say it again!" When Shen Mengyi heard this, her hands trembled as she grabbed the servant girl's shoulders and said excitedly. The servant girl was so frightened that she stepped back." Madam, please calm down. Your health is not good. You can't be too agitated." This servant is saying that Xin 'er has found the young miss. The young miss is back and is right outside the door!”The servant girl first calmed the woman's emotions and then repeated what she had just said.
"Then why are you still standing there? Hurry up and invite Miss in!" Madam was still excited.
"Yes, yes, yes, Madam." The servant girl hurriedly left the hall.
"Old Master, Old Master, quickly come out. Our Xun Er is back!”Shen Mengyi spun around excitedly.
"What is it? Xun Er is back?" Before he could finish his sentence, Premier Zhang had already walked out of the inner room with an excited expression on his face. Seeing him like this, Shen Mengyi suddenly covered her mouth and laughed,""I wonder who was the one who stubbornly said that she didn't care and pretended that she never gave birth to this daughter? Why are you so excited now?" Old Master Zhang's expression instantly became awkward, but he still insisted,"Who said I came out to see her? I came out to get some fresh air."
"Yes, yes, yes. You don't care. You came out to get some fresh air.”
"Madam, Master, Miss is back!”Xin 'er's happy and clear voice came from outside the door. At the same time, three figures entered the hall.
When Zhang Zixun walked into the hall, she received a bear hug, catching her off guard. He wanted to break free, but he heard the person in his arms crying softly."Daughter, you're finally back! Do you know how worried I was? Where did you go? Did anything happen?" From her words, Zhang Zixun could tell that the woman who had hugged her the moment she arrived must be her so-called mother. However, in order to not cause trouble in the future, she gently pushed her away and said innocently,"Excuse me. Who was it? Do we know each other?" As soon as she said that, it was Shen Mengyi's turn to be stunned. She looked at her daughter nervously and asked,""Daughter, what's wrong? Why didn't he recognize his mother? What's going on?"
"Hehe. I'm not sure. It was me. I seem to have lost my memory." Zhang Zixun laughed.
"Xin 'er, what's going on?”This time, Premier Zhang, who had been silent all this while, was furious and almost roared. His actions shocked Xin 'er and even Zixun. In the end, Qing 'Er was the calmest. She stepped forward and said,""Master, you don't have to be anxious. Miss just lost her memory. It's not a big deal.”
"Who are you? Why are you with Xun Er?" Premier Zhang said warily.
"My name is Qing `er. I was the one who discovered the unconscious young miss. Ever since she woke up, she couldn't remember anything.”Premier Zhang finally calmed down. On the other side, the Prime Minister's wife, who was now Zhang Zixun's mother, had already pulled her to the side and sat down. She held her hand and asked her questions with concern. This made Zhang Zixun, who had fallen out with her family in her previous life and did not receive much love from her parents, feel warm in her heart. She also responded to her with a faint smile on her face. Although Premier Zhang didn't say anything, from the gentle look he gave Zhang Zixun, he must be very happy.
"Xun Er, you really don't recognize me? I'm your mother! Look, that's your father." Madam pointed at the Prime Minister and said to Zhang Zixun. Following the direction she was pointing at, Zhang Zixun saw her so-called father. From Zhang Zixun's point of view, this person had a tenacious expression and an unyielding temperament. He must be a loyal minister in the court. However, she also secretly sighed. Such a person would definitely have many enemies. This was the sorrow of a loyal minister. Zhang Zixun tried to call out awkwardly,"Father. Mother." Hearing this, Shen Mengyi burst into tears again. Although Old Master Zhang did not seem to be affected, Zhang Zixun could feel that his eyes were moved by what he said.
"Master, Madam, Xin 'er is begging you!”At this moment, Xin 'er, who was standing at the side, suddenly knelt down in front of the Prime Minister and his wife.
"Xin 'er, what's wrong with you? Get up!" Seeing her like this, Madam immediately said,"You found the young miss today. It's a great merit. Why are you kneeling?”
"No, Madam." Xin 'er shook her head like a rattle-drum." Madam, Master, Miss has been found, but she has lost her memory." Just let her live a carefree and happy life like now! Xin 'er boldly said, The reason why Young Lady wanted to sneak out of the residence to relax was because you had added too many things on him! The etiquette of a lady from a noble family. A lady from a noble family should not leave the house. Miss is almost out of breath! She's only fourteen years old. She should have her own happiness, but you're limiting her like this. Do you know that? Miss is about to get claustrophobic. Fortunately, he had lost his memory because of this accident. He heard from Sister Qing `er that the young miss now knew how to smile, and her temperament had become much more cheerful. Madam, Master, I beg you, please let Miss live like this!”He kowtowed heavily.
"Xin 'er, get up first. I'm fine.”Seeing her so agitated, Zhang Zixun couldn't bear it and stood up to help Xin 'er up. However, the latter shook his head firmly. You might have forgotten that you were under too much pressure in the past. You followed the rules of the young miss and the manners that a daughter of the prime minister should have. Wait a minute. It made you depressed and unhappy. I grew up with you, miss. I don't want to see you become like this!”As she said that, tears streamed down Xin 'er's face. Zhang Zixun sighed in her heart. She did not expect the Grand Supreme Elder to make up such a pitiful daughter for this couple. She and Qing `er exchanged a glance, seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes.
"Alright, Xin 'er, I'll agree to your request. We're already very grateful to the heavens for being able to find Xun' er again. We won't ask too much of her in the future!”Madam held Zhang Zixun's hand and said gently.
Seeing that Furen had agreed, Xin 'er's face revealed some joy. She then turned her gaze towards the Prime Minister.
"Forget it, forget it. In the past, it was indeed the old me who was too strict with Xun Er. In the future, I will try my best.”
"Thank you, Master, thank you, Madam!" Xin 'er kowtowed in gratitude.
"Alright Furen, Xun Er has just returned. Let Xin Er bring her back to her room to rest for a while! We won't disturb her anymore." Premier Zhang stood up and looked deeply at Zhang Zixun before sighing. When the latter met his gaze, he could not help but be stunned. He kept feeling that there was something unusual in his gaze, but he could not figure out what it was at the moment. Just as she was lost in her thoughts, Madam suddenly smiled and said,"That's right, that's right. Look at how happy I am. I forgot about it! Xin 'er, bring Miss and Miss Qing' er back to their rooms to wash up and rest. I'll send for you at dinner time.”At this moment, Xin 'er had already stood up and replied respectfully,""Yes, Madam!"
Madam left with a smile. Zhang Zixun turned around to face Xin 'er and said sincerely,""Thank you, Xin 'er. Regardless of whether I lost my memory or not, I still have to thank you for thinking of me.”
"Yes, no, Miss. This is what Xin 'er should do. I can't watch Miss be like before, moody and depressed all day. Now, Madam and Master don't ask for too much. Miss, you're free!”
"Yes! Thank you."
" Alright, Miss Qing 'er, Sister Qing' er, Xin 'er will bring you to take a bath first and then rest for a while." Zhang Zixun and Qing' er followed Xin 'er through a few corridors and arrived at a quiet room. Along the way, Zhang Zixun had already observed the environment of the Prime Minister's residence. The rockery garden, the small bridge, and the flowing water were not bad. Especially the seemingly quiet room in front of him. Xin 'er brought them in. Zhang Zixun felt that this place was exceptionally warm. Pink curtains, a faint floral fragrance, and a soft and comfortable bed. In short, it was a warm feeling.
"Miss, this is your former boudoir. In the ten days you left, Xin 'er had to clean it every day and never neglected it.”Xin 'er said.
"Thank you, Xin 'er. I think there's a small room here. Why don't you let Qing 'Er stay with me in the future so that she can take care of me? I can't leave her now."
"Yes, Miss. Sister Qing `er, please follow me."
"Thank you, Xin 'er." A moment later, everything was arranged properly. Xin 'er arrived in front of Zhang Zixun. At this moment, the latter was observing everything.
"Young miss, elder sister Qing `er's room has already been tidied up. I'll go fetch water now so that young miss can bathe and change. But Miss, are you familiar with everything here?”Zhang Zixun smiled and shook her head.”
"Miss, why are we being so polite? You and I grew up together, and you treat me like a biological sister. I can't thank you enough! Alright, I'll go get some water now." As he spoke, he left. After Xin 'er left, Zhang Zixun immediately sat cross-legged on the bed. Her eyes were tightly shut, and a purple light flourished on her body. He entered a mysterious state.
"Grand Supreme Elder, Grand Supreme Elder, come out quickly.”Zhang Zixun shouted.
"Princess, what is it?" A white light flashed and Grand Supreme Elder appeared in front of her.
"You're still talking! If you want to find me a father, find me a more loving one. Look at how pitiful you make me out to be! You."
"Hehe. I'm not sure. Princess, the Prime Minister's daughter died early. Now, I'm just adding you, the so-called daughter, into their memories. This is also destined. Fate is destined, Princess. Since you're here, you should take it as it is.”With that, he disappeared.
"Hey, old man, where have you been? Hey, hey."
"Miss, the water is ready. Xin 'er will help you bathe.”Xin 'er's voice came from outside and woke Zhang Zixun up.""This damned old man!"
"Miss, Miss, what are you doing?”In the bathroom, Xin 'er had prepared a fragrant bath soup for Zhang Zixun. She added fresh milk and red rose petals to the hot water. In ancient times, there were no specialized body lotions or skincare products. This was how the young ladies of rich families protected their skin. However, the Prime Minister's daughter was superior. She used freshly squeezed milk and freshly bloomed roses. Zhang Zixun went to the bathroom gloomily.
"Miss, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?”Seeing that her expression wasn't right, Xin 'er immediately went forward and asked with concern.
"I'm fine. I had a dream just now. I dreamed of a detestable old man! I'm so angry!" Zhang Zixun said gloomily. Xin 'er did not ask further when she heard her tone. She was about to step forward to help this young lady bathe when she heard Zhang Zixun exclaim. The former ran over hurriedly." What's wrong, Miss? Is there anything?"”
"What is this? Bath water?" Zhang Zixun pointed at the bath soup in the big wooden bucket and asked. She had never seen such bathwater before. It was water, milk, and flower petals. How was he supposed to wash it!
"What's wrong, Miss? Wasn't this your favorite method in the past? It could not only bathe but also maintain the moisture and luster of the skin.”"Don't tell me you've forgotten your favorite way to bathe?" Xin 'er asked curiously.”
"Hehe. I'm not sure. I've lost my memory. Give me ordinary water!
