After dinner, they could have walked home. However, I still went to the subway station as per our delayed agreement and waited for Rong Zhi to arrive. He said he was going to take me somewhere.
I sat on the subway that I usually took for a while. After passing one station, Rong Zhi appeared in the seat beside me with the wind.
I waved my hand and walked over to him." Rong Zhi, where are you taking me? " Hurry up, it's very…" Before I could finish, Rong Zhi had already rolled me into his long robe. I felt that I had arrived in front of an ancient house in the blink of an eye.
Rong Zhi held my hand and led me into the house. She explained to me," This is my nanny's house. She's living alone now and is very old. Don't be afraid when you see her. She's more important to me than my mother.”
I looked at Rong Zhi's warm and determined expression that I had not seen for a long time. I clenched my fingers and answered firmly," I won't."”
"Nanny, Little Zhi is here!"
An old woman walked over shakily with her walking stick. Rong Zhi and I went forward to help her up almost at the same time.
The old lady saw Rong Zhi first. His face was full of wrinkles, and he looked like an old flower petal that was about to wither. Her heart was smiling for the last time, and her eyes were full of pity." My Little Zhi is here to visit me again. You can't visit the nanny all the time. This is really detrimental to your image as the Great Ghost King."”
The old lady smiled kindly, her eyes filled with warmth.
"How can that be? The nanny is Little Zhi's closest person. How can I not visit the nanny often? Little Zhi couldn't see the nanny, so he couldn't sleep and was in a bad mood.”
I couldn't help but laugh as I watched the interaction between the two of them. It was my first time seeing Rong Zhi acting coquettishly like this. He was quite cute…
Then, the old lady realized that someone was supporting her right hand. She looked over with a smile and shouted in surprise," Whoa! This little girl was really lively! This is my daughter-in-law, isn't it, Little Zhi?”
Rong Zhi blushed in embarrassment and pretended to be angry as he reprimanded the old lady." Nanny! Don't be so shocked. This is my wife. Her name was Wu Xiangxiang, and she was very kind, cute, and stupid. She was pleasing to the eye…In short, she was a good person. You have won my heart."
Rong Zhi's eyes were burning as if he was reading an imperial edict. He kept staring at me, and I lowered my head in embarrassment. The old lady burst out laughing when she saw us like this.
"Little Zhi, you have to give in to her! This girl is also deeply liked by this old woman. She is my daughter-in-law! Come, come, come. Xiang Xiang, right? Come into the house with me, this old woman has something to show my daughter-in-law!”
I saw that the old lady's eyes were curved into a smile and she looked very kind. My heart warmed up and I nodded. Rong Zhi was about to follow her in when the old lady blocked the door angrily." You brat, I'm talking to my daughter-in-law. Why did you come in?!" Get out! Do you think I can kidnap your wife?"
After that, she pulled the curtain and held my face lovingly as she looked left and right, then left and right again. She was very happy.
In the end…at such a happy and warm moment, she suddenly heard a wail outside the door." Little Zhi only has one wife. I'm really afraid that you'll kidnap her."”
The old lady looked at the curtain in a reproachful manner as if Rong Zhi was right there. Then, she burst out laughing again.
After that, she gave me a hat and told me that I would be able to see what had happened and Rong Zhi's appearance after I put it on.
"Don't be afraid, child. Nanny won't harm you. If Little Zhi liked it, Nanny would like it. I was just afraid that you would think that Little Zhi was a ghost. I wanted to show you what Little Zhi used to look like. I think you would like Little Zhi.”
The old lady hugged her hat and looked at me expectantly. Her back was already hunched, her face was full of wrinkles, and her hair was gray, but her face was full of a kind smile.
I took the hat and smiled at the old lady to reassure her before putting it back on. They waited quietly for something to happen.
I felt my head spin. As the world spun, I felt as if I had traveled through several space-times and floated to a few hundred years ago.
I heard the old lady say from outside of time and space," This is hundreds of years ago. You are looking at it from Xiao Qi's perspective. Child, don't be afraid. I'm just the reincarnation of that nanny. Look, I was extremely beautiful a few hundred years ago!”
I couldn't help but laugh." What are you laughing about?”I heard the madam beside me ask me. I looked over and saw a beauty dressed in luxurious clothes. At this moment, she was frowning at me. Her stomach was still protruding and she had a puzzled expression.
Seeing that she looked 70% similar to Rong Zhi, I guessed that she should be his mother. I smiled and replied," Madam. This servant was especially happy when she thought of the little young master being born. She couldn't hold back her joy and laughed.”
"You garrulous little girl!" The beauty smiled. From the looks of it, her bright eyes and white teeth were really beautiful.
Suddenly, the scene changed. I stood beside the beauty. At this moment, the beauty's lower body was blood red. She was in so much pain that her tears and sweat mixed together. She couldn't cry out and her face was pale.
"Xiao Xi, don't be afraid. Breathe in, breathe in, breathe in!”
I saw an old man who seemed to be in his fifties standing beside the beauty. His face was still delicate and small, but there were already many wrinkles that could be noticed without paying attention.
That should be the nanny.
After that, the scene changed again. I hugged the beauty's tears and snot mixed together. As I cried, I called out Madam, Madam, but no one cared.
I wanted to ask where Master went, but I couldn't say it.
It was only later that I found out that Rong Zhi never had a father since he was a child. After his mother passed away during childbirth, his father died in a war after losing his life.
When he was young, he had no one to rely on. He relied on the care of his nanny and a bunch of servants to live a strong and hardworking life until he finally accomplished a great cause.
And I was said to be the woman who accompanied him until the end…Uh, I don't know what's going on either, but now it seems that this should be the reason why I became the current Ghost Princess Consort.
"Xiao Qi, what are you thinking about? The young master wants you to go over.”
I snapped out of my daze and realized that I was still in the past. I quickly picked up the basket and ran to Rong Zhi's room.
I knocked on the door and heard a muffled grunt from the bedroom. Then, I said in a heavy voice," Come in."”
I completely let the hat go. At that time, I cried out in surprise, and the young master pounced over. Rong Zhi looked at me helplessly." Do you really have to be so impatient?"”
I stood at the side with snot and tears." Young Master was beaten up again.”
Rong Zhi looked indifferent." I'm used to those so-called uncles whipping me whenever they're unhappy with me.”
However, I was not afraid of this so-called Young Master Rong Zhi at all. I replied to him in a sobbing voice with an unhappy expression," Young Master must have done something to make those bad uncles and aunts angry. That's why he got beaten up."”
Who knew that Rong Zhi would pull me over and let me sit down on his bed without caring about my struggles. He opened the basket and took out the ointment.
I stubbornly snatched it from him." Young Master, tell me what you did first. Otherwise, I won't return it to you."”
Rong Zhi looked at me helplessly and smiled lovingly." Tsk, you're the tall one! Alright, alright, alright, I'll tell you."
"Those women bullied the nanny and pressed her to the ground to beat her. Those b * tches beat the nanny. I couldn't stand it, so I went up and slapped her a few times. Who knew that they would be prepared for this? They cried and made a scene and called for help. Seriously, it was a mess. And then…"
"And then?" I replied nervously and fearfully, my voice trembling.
Rong Zhi burst out laughing when he saw how nervous I was. He rubbed my head and said slowly," What else can I do? I'll be the one being beaten up on the board."”
"Young Master!" I handed him the ointment with tears all over my face. I watched as he sucked in a cold breath and applied the ointment to his wound.
"You shouldn't have made a move, Young Master. You should have come to Xiao Qi and asked him to help you save Nanny. Nanny was so pitiful. She served the Rong family so loyally…but in the end…"
At this point, I started crying again.
Rong Zhi touched my back again to help me breathe.
"Why don't you say that you're more loyal? Besides, what's the use of looking for you? You only know how to cry all day long. You cry until my heart hurts.”
As he said that, he endured the pain and pulled me into his arms." You're all good people. This Young Master will keep you in his heart for the rest of his life. You are all good people…"
Rong Zhi fainted from the pain as he spoke.
I cried and called Nanny over. Nanny hurriedly sent him to the Imperial Academy of Medicine and found that the wound had pus.
He was so brave and strong, but for the first time, he kept waking up from his dream and calling for his mother. He shed tears one after another, making my heart ache.
I made a decision.
"How long have I been asleep?"
" It's been three days, Young Master."
"Nanny? Where's Xiao Qi?"
Nanny lowered her head and stammered, refusing to speak." Tell me! Where did she go!"
Outside the city, a figure kept running, letting the blood flow all over his body.
Nanny chased after him with her walking stick." Little Zhi! Slow down!"
It turned out that I went out of the city to patrol in civilian clothes that day. However, the Rong family did not like anything related to Rong Zhi, including the people around him. They had to eliminate them all. The Rong family swore that they would leave within three days. If I leave by myself, they won't hurt Rong Zhi for a period of time.
Nanny already knew that she couldn't keep me, so she shed a string of tears.
If this lie was woven now, I wouldn't believe it at all. However, it was still ancient times. In feudal times, how could I not believe it?
Just like that, I quietly left Rong Zhi without a sound.
After that, I heard that Rong Zhi was seriously ill and wanted to rush back to the Rong residence to visit him. However, I realized that time had passed. That place had long been torn down and sealed. No one could enter.
I'll never see Rong Zhi again.
I know nothing about the rest of my life.
Nanny told me that Rong Zhi had not given up on looking for me after he left, so he had been living a strong life and I had been living in his heart.
However, I didn't accompany him in the time that followed, so I had to change into Nanny's perspective to see it.
I felt very tired after such a long time. I didn't know how Rong Zhi felt when he was standing at the door, but a special feeling was secretly growing in my heart.
It was an emotion that surpassed gratitude and friendship, but she wanted to stay by his side.
Just like how selfless he was when he protected me in my previous life, and his persistence in not giving up in this life. For the first time, I felt so happy to be protected by someone.
After that, her vision shifted to the early spring. Today was Rong Zhi's birthday, but the relocated Rong residence was still as ordinary as usual.
No, it was even more ordinary than usual.
On such a festive day, the Rong family was still dressed in white. Rong Zhi did not mind and also wore white.
The atmosphere was filled with misery.
I felt a wave of displeasure in my heart. This Rong family is really not nice. How did Eldest Master Rong and Eldest Madam Rong treat them before? In the end, was this really how he repaid her?
Rong Zhi looked at everything coldly.
It did not belong to him, his family, his house, his toys, his birthday, or his era.
I don't know how he survived.#
