Time Travel: Female Cannon Fodder of the Republic of China

After Bai Guo left, Ai Shutong turned around to look for the familiar figure. She turned around several times but couldn't find him. Just when she was about to give up, she saw a person walking out of the small door on the east side.

The figure approached quickly.

"Is it cherry?" Ai Shutong asked impatiently.

Cherry suddenly knelt down in the snow, "Gege, it's me! Are you okay?"

As he spoke, he choked up.

Ai Shutong quickly helped her up and pulled her into the depths of the plum blossom forest.

"I'm fine now. Not only my body is fine, but my mind is fine too. How are you doing?"

Yingtao shook her head repeatedly, "Gege, you don't know. You were seriously ill at the time, and I came back to ask Madam to save you. I didn't expect that Madam openly agreed to save you, but secretly asked Li Tai to kill me."

"If Li Tai hadn't been tempted by my beauty and didn't kill me immediately, I would have died long ago."

Ai Shutong's face changed drastically when she heard this, "So what Sang Shen said is true!"

"Then why are you still here? Why don't you run away?"

Cherry cried, "I couldn't escape. Madam kept sending people to catch me. I climbed over the wall and returned to my home in the back street. It was my parents who secretly hid me that prevented her from catching me."

"I hid at home while my parents lived in fear every day. They were in a state of panic and had no appetite. Not only did they become very thin, but they also became sick."

"I kept looking for ways to escape, but nothing worked."

"Half a month ago, my mother learned from Aunt Chu in the kitchen that there was a new young lady in the mansion. She was originally a fool and had been left in the countryside to recuperate. She was brought back only after she recovered. I guess it was you."

"After seeing you today, I didn't expect that you are really well. Congratulations, princess! Congratulations, princess!"

Ai Shutong: "Why did you come to this garden? It's too dangerous!"

"I wanted to see you, so I hardened my heart and used red-hot iron pliers to burn my nose flat."

"Plus I lost more than 20 pounds, so people who don't know me well wouldn't recognize me at all."

"Put on coarse clothes and go into the kitchen to light the fire."

"These days, I heard that you live in Chunyi Pavilion in the west. I was looking for an opportunity to meet you, but I didn't expect to see you in this garden today."

After saying that, she started crying again.

Ai Shutong quickly wiped her tears: "Don't be afraid, you also said that your appearance has changed a lot now, and people who are not familiar with you will not be able to recognize you. You should stay in the kitchen first."

"I'll go back and think of a way to rescue you."

Cherry: "No, Gege, you're in a tough situation right now, I want to stay and help you."

Ai Shutong shook her head. "Don't worry about my affairs. No matter how difficult it is, you won't lose your life in this mansion."

"Have you figured out how to make a living when you get out?"

Tears were stained on her cherry eyelashes. She shook her head in confusion, "I don't know. At first I just wanted to run back to see you."

Ai Shutong felt that in this world, it was better for a girl like her to stay in this mansion than to run into obstacles outside.

Isn’t there an old saying that the darkest place is under the lamp?

It was hard for Li Yanran to imagine that Cherry was hiding right beside her.

"I'll go back and think about how to arrange you. You go back first. We'll meet here at this time tomorrow!"

Ai Shutong was a little confused and couldn't figure out how to arrange for Cherry.

When you don’t know what to do, it’s better to be still than to move.

Wait until you come up with a solution before taking action.

If you don't think it through, you'll be like a fly flying around and easily be discovered.

Cherry looked at Ai Shutong with tears in her eyes. Ai Shutong saw that it was getting long and Baiguo should be back soon, so she pushed her hard a few times. Only then did she walk away, looking back every few steps.

After she left, Ai Shutong suddenly noticed the footprints in the snow, and immediately stepped on the footprints left by Cherry.

When Baiguo walked into the small garden with the hand warmer, he saw the young lady wading around in the snow like crazy.

Could it be that he is ill?

The master has instructed that if the young lady behaves abnormally, you must not make a fuss, but stay calm, control the situation first, and then report to him afterwards.

Bai Guo quickly stepped forward and grabbed Ai Shutong who was running around, "Miss, stop now! I'm Bai Guo, do you still recognize me?"

Ai Shutong stopped panting, turned around and stared at Bai Guo as if he was a fool, "We have only been apart for a short while, how could I not recognize you? Are you stupid?"

ginkgo:"……"

Actually, I’m afraid that you’ve become stupid, but I dare not say this.

"What are you doing? Aren't you tired of running around?" Bai Guo asked again.

Ai Shutong's lively eyes moved left and right, and the corners of her mouth suddenly curled up into a wicked smile, "I'm performing a ritual, praying for snow to come!"

Bai Guo's eyes almost popped out of his head in shock. Sure enough, what the master said was right. The young lady was not right. He had to calm down.

"Miss, if you are not feeling well, let's go back quickly! The kitchen has made your favorite almond cheese." Baiguo coaxed.

Ai Shutong pouted in pretending to be angry and accused: "Bai Guo, don't you believe me? I'll prove it to you!"

As he said this, he turned around and took two quick steps, stepping onto a wintersweet tree. The snow on the tree fell down, and ginkgo nuts covered his head and body.

Bai Guo: “(?｀?Д?′)!!”

Miss, are you sick or are you making trouble?

The two returned to Chunyi Pavilion, and after Baiguo brought almond cheese from the kitchen, he left in a hurry.

Ai Shutong was so happy that no one was watching her. She ate while taking inventory of her belongings.

No matter how Cherry arranges things, the word "money" is the key.

When Ai Shutong was kidnapped, she had ten dollars on her. There were five pieces of jewelry on the dressing table in the room, but they were not worth much.

Ai Shutong fiddled with those pieces of jewelry like a money-grubber, thinking that if only the space had come earlier, she could put all her wealth in it and bring it here.

But now I only have this little stuff, which is not enough to escape.

Hengsu is going to hold a dance party in a few days. Do you want to make some noise and ask for some benefits while others are around?

After a few seconds, Ai Shutong rejected this idea.

The most important thing now is to let Hengsu and the others relax their supervision over me, and preferably let me go out so that I can escape.

The more trouble you make, the stricter the supervision will be, and the later your opportunity will come!

Let's think of another way.

On the other side, Bai Guo hurried back to the servants' room and prepared to change clothes. Some of the snow particles that had just fallen from the trees poured into her neck, making her shiver with cold!

Pushing the door open, he found Dongmei doing needlework in the room. Bai Guo said, "Sister Dongmei, I just accompanied the young lady to the garden and she was acting a little abnormal. Do you think we should report it to the master?"

Dongmei put down her needlework and asked in surprise, "Why are you out of your mind?"

Bai Guo described it as: "He ran wildly in the snow, shaking his head, and deliberately stepped on trees, leaving me covered in snow."

"Anyway, it's just not normal, a little crazy!"

Dongmei: "Change your clothes first, I'll go see how the lady is doing!"

Then he pushed the door and left.
