How can someone travel through time and space and become a beggar?

After sitting for a while, Xia Chu thought of the swing in the courtyard. She went to the west wing and saw Wang Qiuyu asleep on the bed without even taking off his shoes.

"If mother sees this, she will blame you again." She smiled and shook her head, then tiptoed in to help her brother take off his shoes and turned him over to the bed.

Wang Qiuyu squinted his eyes and saw that it was his sister. He smiled and fell asleep again.

"Piggy." Xia Chu tapped his nose, came out and closed the door behind him.

When she came out, she saw the maids and servants gathered together and whispering to each other. When they saw her, they were so shocked that they fell to the ground.

Are you saying something bad about me? Otherwise, why would you be so panicked? Xia Chu pretended not to see it, walked straight to the swing, sat down, and slowly swung.

Cui Ya looked at Cui Hua, then at the two maids. She waved her hand to get them up and go back to work, then stepped forward and asked, "Cousin, let me go get some tea and snacks."

Xia Chu nodded, "Thank you, I want flower tea."

When Jia Xu went to pick up his sister, he first asked the monk in the temple if he had any illness today. He breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that there was no food.

Jia Qingwu was following the masters in the afternoon class. Jia Xu was standing outside the hall waiting, his eyes tearing up as he looked at his sister's calm face.

She'd lost weight again, and to describe herself as emaciated wouldn't be an exaggeration. The nanny who cared for her said she couldn't sleep well. She often dreamed of Xia Xia being beaten, with nothing to eat and nothing to wear. Sometimes, while enjoying a meal, she'd suddenly ask to serve Xia Xia a dish she found delicious.

Once this happens, the symptoms will set in. My memory is not good either. Sometimes I forget what I said in the middle of a conversation, and I walk away in the middle of doing something.

"Second Master." Nanny Xu, who was guarding Jia Qingwu, saw Jia Xu and came out to greet him.

"How are you these days, Madam?" Jia Xu asked.

Nanny Xu sighed softly, her tone full of fatigue, "She had an attack last night, saying that her cousin was crying for help. I went to save her in the middle of the night, and no one could stop her. She kept making a fuss for half the night. She only calmed down in the morning. I asked her to take a nap, but she refused to go. She has been kneeling in this hall for half the day." She was Jia Qingwu's wet nurse and had been with her for half her life. Every time she saw her living in such pain, her heart ached.

"I understand." Jia Xu hesitated for a moment and said, "My cousin has found it, but I won't tell Nini yet."

Aunt Xu was stunned for a moment, covering her mouth to prevent herself from screaming out loud. She glanced at the lady in the palace. Her voice began to choke as she spoke, "Really? Is it really my cousin?"

Jia Xu also had tears in his eyes and nodded: "Yes, the birthmarks match, and her appearance is 80% similar to Nini when she was young."

Aunt Xu covered her mouth and walked to the side, sobbing and crying a few times, muttering: "That's great, that's great, that's great..."

After a long while, Aunt Xu finally recovered. She wiped her tears and said, "Second Master! Is my cousin here?"

"No, there is no doctor on the mountain. We'd better take him back. The doctor has been asked to go back. Then... we will have a solution when the time comes." Jia Xu said.

"Then I'll go call the lady!" Aunt Xu said anxiously.

Jia Xu nodded, "Just say that mother misses her."

When Jia Qingwu heard that her mother missed her, she followed her and asked, "Second brother, are mom and dad happy today? Are they in good health?"

Jia Xu touched his sister's hair and said softly, "Everything is fine at home. A lot of crabs have been delivered recently. When mother saw them, she remembered that you loved to eat them, so she wanted you to go back and stay for a few days."

"Okay." Jia Qingwu smiled. Her thin face was yellow, and even her lips were pale. Her eyes were dull, like those of an old man on his deathbed.

Jia Xu couldn't help but think of his sister before she got married. She was always cheerful and carefree, with a carefree and happy look. Everyone in the family couldn't help but feel happy when they saw her. But what about her now? He didn't quite understand it, even with his own children.

Jia Qingwu sat very quietly in the carriage, leaning against the carriage with her eyes fixed on the front, not knowing what she was thinking. Jia Xu spoke softly to her, but she seemed not to hear.

When they got home, the housekeeper came out with a smile, "The lady is back."

"Uncle He, are you in good health?" Jia Qingwu asked with a smile.

"It's fine. The farm sent some crabs this morning. They're still alive in the bucket. I'll cook them for you tonight." Uncle He replied with a smile.

"Thank you, Uncle He. Where is my mother?" Jia Qingwu nodded, seeming tired, and spoke weakly.

"The old lady hasn't gotten up yet. Madam, why don't you go back to the yard and sit for a while?" Uncle He smiled and glanced at Jia Xu.

Jia Xu frowned. Isn't it too hasty to go and meet him right after returning?

"Yeah." Jia Qingwu nodded. She didn't sleep much last night and was feeling a bit sleepy. But she knew she wouldn't be able to fall asleep if she really tried.

Nanny Xu helped Jia Qingwu back to Qingwu Courtyard. Jia Xu didn't follow. After they had walked away, he whispered, "Cousin is in Qingwu Courtyard? Why did you go to see her right after you got back? Who arranged that?"

"The old man said that the lady only remembers her cousin when she was little. Now that she's grown up, she might not recognize her. If she did, the doctor would be waiting for her if she got sick."

It was his father's decision, so Jia Xu didn't say much. He quickly followed and said, "Then I'll go and watch."

Xia Chu was enjoying the life of a wealthy young lady, half-lying on the swing, leaning against the soft pillow Cuihua had brought. A small table beside her was set with scented tea, fruit, and snacks. Cuiya would occasionally push her from behind, almost causing her to fall asleep. At first, she wasn't used to being pushed on a swing, but after a while, she got used to it.

As soon as Jia Qingwu entered, she saw the person on the swing. The girl was lying lazily on the swing, as if she had no bones. She frowned slightly, "Who is it? Is that fake Sun family member here?"

Before Aunt Xu could say anything, Xia Chu sat up straight and put a piece of dessert into her mouth.

"The lady is back." Cuihua and Cuiya noticed the person coming and hurried over to pay their respects.

The eldest lady? The original owner's mother? Jia Qingwu has returned? Xia Chu's expression straightened as he looked over, then frowned. The person who came was dressed simply, without a single piece of jewelry. Her hair was dry and thin, her face pale and sickly, and her eyes were dull, as if a gust of wind could blow her down. With this appearance, people would believe she was a refugee.

Is this Jia Qingwu? Is there really someone in the Jia family who takes good care of her? Xia Chu felt a pang of pain in her heart, and suddenly she felt an indescribable sadness. This woman was clearly only related to this body by blood, so why did she feel so sad?

"That's..." Jia Qingwu's eyes lit up little by little. She stretched out a hand and stumbled forward, "Xia Xia..." Her voice was so soft that even Aunt Xu, who was supporting her, couldn't hear it clearly.

"My Xia Xia..." Jia Qingwu's lips were moving. She seemed to be afraid of something and moved forward step by step.

Xia Chu stood up nervously, unsure if the other party would recognize her. After all, the original owner was only four years old when she was abducted, and it had been more than ten years. She felt conflicted, worried that the other party would recognize her, but also worried that the other party would not recognize her.
