Surprise! The prince is busy reading the princess' mind while raising a child!

"Aunt, why are you here so late?" Shi Yi looked carefully and saw that it was Aunt Wang, Shi Yi's biological mother.

She took a few quick steps forward and held her aunt's hand.

My aunt's hands are slender, rough, and covered with calluses, which are obviously the result of years of needlework.

"I was afraid that I would come over during the day and make you angry, so you didn't want to see me. It's all because of your incompetence that I didn't let you be born in Madam's belly. It's all my fault..."

My aunt wiped the tears from her face with her sleeve, and her fine crow's feet were faintly visible in the firelight.

A series of images flashed through Shi Yi's mind, all of which were Shi Yi's dissatisfaction with her background and her disgust with her aunt. These were also the words she had said in the past...

She stepped forward and held her aunt's hand tightly, tucked the messy hair around her ears behind her head, and helped her sit down:

"Aunt, Shi Yi was ignorant before and always made you angry. Now Shi Yi has grown up and become sensible! I know that you are thinking about me wholeheartedly and are the person who cares about me and loves me the most in this world."

Shi Yi leaned her head on her aunt's thin shoulder, tears in her eyes.

The modern Shi Yi is a survivor of the Wenchuan earthquake. She was sent to an orphanage at the age of two. The director's mother looks exactly like her aunt.

"Aunt, I will definitely live a good life if I marry Ye Lingfeng. You must keep a low profile in the mansion and just live your life well. Don't argue with others on weekdays. You are soft-hearted and will suffer losses easily."

After so many years, it was the first time that Aunt Wang Xiaofeng held her daughter so closely in her arms. She gently patted her daughter's thin back, her heart weeping:

"Auntie understands, she knows it all in her heart. After you get married, besides paying respects to the Madam, Auntie will stay at home quietly and make new clothes for you. And Shiyi, don't always listen to the eldest, third, fourth and other young ladies, saying that being thin is beautiful and that good health is the most important thing."

Shi Yi was held in her aunt's arms, and she thought of the ridiculous things Shi Yi had done.

At that time, under the instigation of others, she only ate one mouthful of food a day in pursuit of beauty, and starved herself to the point of skin and bones.

"Aunt, it won't happen again, never again. When I'm better, I'll ask the prince to find a way to bring you to my place to live for a while, okay?" Shi Yi rubbed her aunt's narrow but warm arms.

"Okay, auntie will wait." After saying that, she wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes while lowering her head, and opened a bundle on the chair next to her.

"Oh, yes, this bundle contains all the clothes that Auntie made for you, including wedding dresses and small clothes for the inner garments. Auntie knows that you are not good at embroidery. Oh, yes, I also sewed some purses for you. When you arrive at the palace, you can give them as rewards to the servants."

"Well, thank you, mother!"

Wang Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment. She thought she was hallucinating.

"Mom!" Shi Yi shouted again!

Wang Xiaofeng stared at her daughter blankly, but her daughter threw herself into her arms.

"mother!"

"Hey!"

"mother!"

"Hey!"

The two of them were like fools, shouting and laughing.

As the night deepened, Wang Xiaofeng stood up reluctantly:

"Mother is going back. Shiyi, when you go to the palace, you must take good care of the prince. He is also a poor man. If you use your sincerity in exchange for sincerity, one day, the prince will see the good in you."

Shi Yi held her aunt's arm and said slowly:

"Mom, let me tell you, when I went to the underworld this time, the King of Hell didn't take me away, saying that I did a lot of good things in my previous life, so I can live well in this life. But I must change my previous bad habits. Mom, it was all my fault before, and you are not allowed to be angry!"

Wang Xiaofeng touched her daughter's rough face and felt warm in her heart: "You are my daughter, how could I be angry with you? Don't think too much and go to bed early."

"Mom, I'll take you back."

"This is not good."

"What's wrong with that? Let's go, let's go!" He put his cloak on his aunt, took her arm and sent her back to "Qiu Sheng Garden".

The place where my aunt lived was a bit remote and desolate, so several of her maids and servants used their connections to leave.

Now, there was only a ten-year-old girl, a lame servant, and a nanny who came with the aunt's dowry in the aunt's yard.

Shi Yi left a few plasters for the lame servant to apply when his legs hurt on rainy days. She also left a butterfly headdress for the little girl, and a bottle of hand cream for the aunt and the nanny.

Before leaving, he secretly stuffed one hundred taels of silver under his aunt's pillow. It was the change he had just taken from the warehouse and had no mark on it.

Under the cold moonlight, Shi Yi walked in this strange world and strange mansion, and she couldn't help feeling lonely and frightened.

Suddenly, a little maid came running towards her and bumped into Shi Yi's arms.

Just as Shi Yi was about to speak, she felt someone covering her nose. She became dizzy and passed out before she had a chance to react.

"Who are you!"

When Shi Yi woke up, she found herself in a dilapidated temple. Four strong men, shirtless, were surrounding her in an obscene manner.

"Boss, even though this girl looks a bit ugly and has blood on her head, she is still a virgin after all, and there is a large sum of money to be taken. How about we just make do with her?"

The man next to her, with a pointed face and acne scars, looked at her lustfully. Their nails were black, their teeth were yellow, and when they spoke, their breath was full of bad breath. Shi Yi couldn't help but vomit.

The man who was called the boss glanced at Shi Yi with a look of disdain on his face: "Okay, okay, just make do with it!"

One by one, they stretched out their disgusting hands, touched her body, and tried to tear off her dress.

Shi Yi bit her tongue and forced herself to stay awake. She sat up suddenly and swept her right hand past them like the wind.

After hearing a few screams, the three of them sat on the ground, covering their bleeding eyes and crying out.

Shi Yi had a sharp hairpin in her hand at some point.

She pressed a hairpin against the right eye of the last healthy man and said lightly:

"Send me back to the back door of the Duke of Qing's mansion! Otherwise, you will be dead now! Also, who asked you to kidnap me?"

The man raised his hands and said, "Okay, okay! I'll give it to you right now!"

Then, when he stood up, he wanted to strangle Shi Yi's thin neck, but Shi Yi broke his left arm in an instant.

"You don't understand what I'm saying, right!" Shi Yi raised her hairpin and the man's left eye was disabled. Suddenly, he heard a scream of pain in his ears.

"Tell me, who sent you here?" Shi Yi asked sternly. The man hesitated.

Shi Yi's hairpin dug deeply into the cracks between his fingernails.

"I said, I said, it's Princess Anping!"

"How do you know? Did she come to find you in person?" Shi Yi raised the hairpin again.

"Auntie, don't come here, I said." The man hid his hand in fear.
