"Young Master, come here!" Seeing that there was no one around, I quietly waved at Rong Zhi to signal him to come over.
Rong Zhi was looking at everything in white coldly. When he saw that I was waving at him, he walked over with a puzzled expression. "Nanny, what's wrong?"
I took out a small toy that I had been hiding behind my back." Young Master, look.”It was a nimble wooden bird that had been prepared since the year before last. One could still hear a crisp sound when blowing into the wind.
Rong Zhi smiled and said softly," Nanny, I'm already so old, yet you're still making this for me. You're really treating me like a child!”
The little bird in my hand was still chirping, but I was unhappy.
"Young Master's words! In the nanny's heart, the young master was always a child.”I stared at the exquisite wooden bird in my hand with a heavy heart. "Xiao Qi used to like these little things very much. He often made them by himself and made a lot of beautiful and novel little things.”
Rong Zhi's pupils shrank visibly. He could not help but reach out to take the wooden bird and caress its head.
"Young Master's mother, Madam. She was also a person who liked to play with toys. Little Qi was only five years old before Little Master was born, but she already knew how to please Madam. Because Madam treated Xiao Qi so well, Xiao Qi would stay in the house when he was free and fiddle with this and that every day.”
After receiving the wooden bird and thanking him, Rong Zhi shifted his gaze to the main hall that was filled with a gloomy aura again. He scanned his surroundings with a pair of cold and peaceful eyes.
That girl…
"You said you're leaving, so you're leaving." Rong Zhi said softly. It was as if I could read his mind. I raised my wrinkled hand and placed it on Rong Zhi's head, which was already very tall, to caress him slowly." Xiao Qi is a good child. You two must be well, even if you don't see each other again.”
" We won't meet again…" Rong Zhi repeated, his eyebrows tightly knitted together. "I won't allow it. If she wants to leave, this Young Master will follow her closely and never let her leave. I will find her."
I sighed and patted his head again.
After that, the birthday party started. In fact, they had a meal as usual. Rong Zhi toasted everyone and finished the meal in one gulp. The rest of them just said a few perfunctory words of happy birthday before they ate their own meals and did not speak anymore.
In ancient times, it was basic to not speak while eating or sleeping. As expected, in just a short while, the entire room was so quiet that there was not a single sound.
Oh, no, actually, there's also a little female ghost that I saw…talking to Rong Zhi.
However, Rong Zhi did not know about it at that time. Besides, he would not have said it even if he knew.
Rong Zhi had been bullied ever since then. However, as he grew older, he worked harder and gradually made a name for himself. In such a small town, everyone knew that the richest family in the town had a famous scholar.
Cold-faced scholar.
He was the target of countless girls seeking marriage, the target of countless qualified scholars wanting to spar with, the target of countless elders praising, and the target of countless beginners wanting to be humiliated.
However, no one knew the hardships he had suffered.
Countless nights, only half a candle floated in the cold thatched cottage. Anyone who saw it would be shocked.
Such a wealthy family actually owned such a small place that was like a latrine. Moreover, they even let such a famous person live there. Even the servants would not do so.
For countless mornings, Rong Zhi had exercised ten times more than the average person after receiving his morning training. Moreover, he used a stick as a basic exercise.
The worst thing was that at least half of the money he earned belonged to the Rong family.
I think he would also want to leave. He would also want to lay his cards on the table and not do it. He would also want to resist. He would also be angry and cry.
But he didn't. It was as if he had no emotions. He lived like a zombie every day. He didn't cry. He didn't think about the Rong family from before. He didn't get angry. He didn't express anything.
He had been using the excuse that the Rong family had a mother soul as an excuse.
One day, I couldn't help but ask him," What do you want?"
Rong Zhi pondered for a long time. Then, a barely visible smile appeared on his face and he said gently," I want Nanny to live a healthy and happy life forever. I want to be with that fool, Xiao Qi, forever."”
At that time, as a nanny, I was shocked. I quickly stopped myself from scolding him loudly. I held back my words and carefully worded them." Little Master, I don't know if I should say this. Xiao Qi, that girl, is still alive and her identity is unknown. Although she is kind and innocent, if she..."
"If she enters the ground, this Young Master will follow. Nanny, she's my only friend, and the only person I've ever liked but didn't dare to say that I missed her. I missed her so many times, and now, I don't want to miss her again.”
I asked again," Young Master, do you know that Little Qi has been dead for a long time?"
Rong Zhi looked surprised, and his eyes were filled with distrust and fear.'I only heard about it recently, but I couldn't bear to say it when I saw him like this.'
He said," Nanny, do you know that this Young Master still remembers that little girl's smiling face and the warmth of her palm?”
A few days ago, Xiao Qi returned.
His body was thin and weak, as if he would fall down if the wind blew. His hands were empty, and there were two apples in his pocket. They were polished and shiny. They were gifts he had asked for when he went home.
Her fine and black hair was withered and sparse, and her two skinny legs were kneeling straight on the ground, begging the Rong family to let her see how the young master was doing.
How could the Rong family agree? Seeing that Xiao Qi was getting crazier and crazier, they casually fanned him, but Xiao Qi did not get up again.
After asking around, she found out that Xiao Qi had a head injury, and the Rong family guards had hit his head…
After Rong Zhi found out about it, he went to the temple hall every day to kowtow to Little Qi. He kept talking, and his eyes shone with happiness. His expression was gentle.
I tried to persuade him to give up several times as a nanny, but he refused to let go.
After staying here for so long, I finally understood Rong Zhi's personality in the past few hundred lives. He was calm and strong, persistent but daring to love and hate. The only thing that I didn't say was the gratitude and love I, Xiao Qi, had for her in the past few hundred lives.
However, the people at that time were so innocent. They might have only said one sentence when they decided on something, but they decided on something for the rest of their lives. They would not look back.
At that time, Rong Zhi and I were just like that.
At that time, I was humble and pure. I ran around for money, hid for love, and bowed to myself, but I didn't dare to say anything wrong. Ever since she was adopted by the Rong family at the age of three, she had lost her own happiness.
Rong Zhi told me a long time ago that his wish was for me to be free.
But when I got my freedom, he told Nanny that his wish was to be with me forever.
At that time, there were only Liao Zhai and no ghosts.
According to Nanny, Rong Zhi had caught the eye of the king of Liaozhai in their town at that time. She said that he had a dream to have a successor. The successor had to work underground.
At that time, Nanny was still burning incense and worshipping Buddha with Rong Zhi. She heard that there was a King of Liaozhai, so she dropped by to pay her respects.
Who knew that he would see Rong Zhi at first glance and say such terrifying words?
Nanny burst into tears immediately and was at a loss as to how to run with Rong Zhi.
However, Rong Zhi asked the King of Liaozhai seriously," Old Sir, as long as I become your successor, will I be able to see the people from before?”To be together forever.
They would stay together forever underground.
In the end, Rong Zhi gave all his savings to Nanny and found an orphan who was kind but had nowhere to go.
A few days before they parted ways, he checked her carefully and found no mistakes. He sent her to a beautiful paradise in tears and reluctance, so that she could live the rest of her life in peace.
On the last day, Rong Zhi did not return to the Rong family's residence. Instead, he wandered around the streets.
Xiao Qi used to tell him that the streets in the morning and the streets at night were different. He would be very happy just by strolling on the streets and enjoying the breeze.
Rong Zhi couldn't help but laugh at the thought. He walked to the side of the bridge and felt the cool breeze blowing against his face.
He remembered her saying that the food on the street was always interesting and there were all kinds of food. Even if some unhealthy food was not good, it was too delicious and he felt that his health was not a problem.
He casually bought a bunch of oily and spicy tofu rolls. It was the first time he saw such greasy food, and he could not help but frown.
However, when he slowly took a bite, he realized that his mouth was filled with a spicy fragrance. It was oily but not greasy. Instead, it had the taste of a clever combination of onions and garlic.
Rong Zhi had decided to go over after he finished eating the tofu roll. However, he did not expect a horse carriage to rush towards him. He did not move as if he was possessed. He watched as the horse carriage covered with the window cloth of the luxurious horse carriage rushed straight towards him.
The moment he collapsed, he had actually thought too much. When he saw the mocking smile on the person sitting elegantly in the luxurious carriage, a fire burned in his heart.
Rich people…
Another rich family…
You people! If one's heart was in one's chest, why couldn't one be a little more tolerant?
Rong Zhi looked at the clear and traceless sky and died with a heart that seemed to be filled with hatred but had to suppress it to be calm.
The people on the street would only scream a few times when they saw it, and they would discuss it for a while before leaving. The streets were still bustling with activity. He could not say anything.
He died with grievances.
Now, they could finally be together forever.
However, Rong Zhi turned into a vengeful spirit. Later on, for some unknown reason, he possessed boundless mana and became the Ghost King. He drifted around the human world for hundreds of years to look for my shadow and see the traces of my reincarnation.
After that…a few hundred years later, he found me, Xiao Qi's descendant, Wu Xiangxiang.
I finally understood everything that had happened. I took off my hat and held it in my hands. I thought about my chaotic past and present life. I was in a daze and even forgot to return the hat to Nanny.
The nanny did not chase after me to take back the hat. She said slowly," This was Little Zhi's previous life. I was put to sleep after that. For the rest of my life, I did as Rong Zhi had expected and lived the rest of my life in peace. After he turned into a ghost, he was the first to find me. I was naturally very touched. He was a pitiful child. He had chased after Xiao Qi for so many years and lived so bitterly for so many years. In the end, he still turned into a ghost and continued to live. Perhaps fate had not ended.”
I tried hard to digest her words. Fate was not over yet.
That's why I left my peaceful life and accompanied Rong Zhi day after day. He came to me with the hope of finding Xiao Qi, but we'll be together forever…
Actually, Rong Zhi was quite pitiful. He had lost his mother when he was born because of his mother's difficult labor. His mother was also very loyal and protective of his child.
His father was also persecuted and lost his life. She had been with Nanny and Xiao Qi since she was young. When Nanny was old, Xiao Qi left.
Moreover, Xiao Qi was five years older than him, but he had always been affectionate.
The more I thought about it, the more confused I became. I could only look at Nanny's kind face and didn't know what to say.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:021420196:22PM
