The widow becomes a fairy, and the time-traveling girl counterattacks and becomes the queen

Wang Xinyao talked about her meeting with Zhou Shen, and also told Cui's mother that Zhou Shen would be even busier in the future!

"My benefactor, my real name is Cui Yingying. I am actually only 26 years old. My father was the prefect of Nanzhou, and Zhou Shen's father was a magistrate. We have been childhood sweethearts!" Mother Cui spoke slowly, opening up the dusty past.

"On the day of our wedding, an imperial edict suddenly came down from our family, saying that my father was corrupt and committed adultery, and the evidence was irrefutable. At that time, our whole family was struck by lightning. From that day on, our family was ransacked and exiled!" Cui Yingying continued.

Nanzhou prefect? ​​Wang Xinyao was stunned. She had never expected that Mother Cui was actually the prefect's daughter. The original owner vaguely remembered Gou Xiangmei mentioning eight years ago that her father was about to be promoted to prefect.

Cui Yingying continued, "During our exile, we encountered bandits. They killed my father, mother, and everyone else. They also took me abducted and took me to the mountains!"

"Brother Zhou Shen's parents, fearing they would be implicated in my father's exile, refused to allow him to come look for us and instead imprisoned him!" Cui Yingying grew increasingly emotional as she spoke. "Later, he escaped from home, and when he found me, I was being brutally abused by over ten bandits!"

Wang Xinyao listened silently to this sad past!

"Brother Zhou killed with bloodshot eyes to save me, but it was a pity that he was alone and weak. Fortunately, Master Zhou Yunxi led his troops to suppress the bandits and saved Brother Zhou!" Cui Yingying paused for a moment and continued, "I wanted to die, but Brother Zhou was seriously injured at that time and urgently needed care. Besides, I was not the only woman who was abducted to the mountain!" At this point, Cui Yingying was already crying.

Wang Xinyao stepped forward and held her hand, wanting to give her some warm comfort.

After a moment, Cui Yingying spoke again, "After the bandit campaign concluded, Master Zhou Yunxi was so impressed by Brother Zhou's bravery that he helped us purchase this building in Nanhu County as a place for us women who had been abused by the bandits to live. To take care of Brother Zhou, I had no choice but to endure humiliation and live in this world. However, the good times didn't last long. When Brother Zhou was almost fully recovered, his father found him and took him back in a very forceful manner. Uncle Zhou, having severed ties with my family, was also transferred to the capital as prefect."

"We are a group of weak women, powerless. To keep these poor sisters alive, I had no choice but to open the Yihong Courtyard." Cui Yingying couldn't help but feel sad again. "After Brother Zhou left, his parents sent people to watch over him all day long. Two years later, he escaped from the capital. Unfortunately, my Yihong Courtyard had already opened. Under such circumstances, Brother Zhou's parents were even more strongly opposed!"

"Over the years, his family has introduced many candidates to him. Once, they even prepared a wedding, but Brother Zhou ran away. Later, his parents were really helpless with him and worried that Brother Zhou would never get married and have children again. Since last year, they have stopped controlling him!" A glimmer of hope flashed in Cui Yingying's eyes.

However, the ray of hope flickered away, and she said with a gloomy expression, "When Brother Zhou came to find me again, I realized that I was very ill. In fact, from the moment Brother Zhou rescued me from the mountain, I felt a little unwell, but I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. Later, I was too embarrassed to seek medical treatment. Moreover, in our line of work, we can't let others know that the girls here are ill!"

"I thought my time was up, but God had mercy on me and let me meet my benefactor," Cui Yingying said gratefully. "Thank you so much, benefactor. After this period of careful care, my health has improved a lot!"

Wang Xinyao gently patted Cui Yingying's shoulder and said softly, "Sister Cui, don't be too sad. Brother Zhou Shen loves you deeply, and your health will gradually improve. This is already the greatest blessing. What's more, now even his parents no longer oppose you being together. The future will definitely be better and better."

Cui Yingying nodded slightly, with gratitude glittering in her eyes. She said softly, "Yes, thank you so much, benefactor! I have never mentioned these things to anyone. I am sorry to have made a fool of myself."

As she spoke, she gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, raised a faint smile at the corners of her mouth, and then nodded slightly.

Then, Cui Yingying seemed to remember something important and said quickly: "Oh, by the way, it's great that you came here today. I just happen to have something very important to tell you!"

Wang Xinyao looked at Cui Yingying curiously and asked, "What's the matter, Sister Cui? Just tell me!"

"Two guests came to our Yihong Courtyard last night. They were received by Lanzhi and Meizhi from our courtyard. Perhaps after three rounds of drinks, the two guests revealed the truth and said that they followed the two Lords Yang to Nanhu County and were responsible for monitoring Lord Yang!" Cui Yingying said softly with a worried look on her face.

It was a close call. Fortunately, I didn't recognize the two Lord Yangs today. They were indeed being monitored. I didn't expect that Yihongyuan had such a good source of information. No wonder the ancients always liked to go to places of entertainment to gather information.

"Thank you, Sister Cui. This information is crucial. If they come again, I hope you can help me get their names!" Wang Xinyao said solemnly, "Sister Cui, please relax, sisters. Just be patient for a while. I will definitely rescue you from this dire situation and find you ideal husbands!"

"Thank you very much, benefactor. I thank you on behalf of those sisters who have suffered a lot!" Cui Yingying bowed with gratitude.

Wang Xinyao said gravely, "Sister Cui, you and I are family. There's no need for such estrangement. I'm here today, firstly, to check on your health, and secondly, to examine all of you sisters. So, could you please arrange for them to come in one by one? Don't worry, I've already told my family that I might be back late today."

Upon hearing this, Cui Yingying immediately stood up and arranged for the sisters who had not yet received the guests to enter the room in order. Wang Xinyao also did not stop and immediately got busy.

After a detailed inspection, she found that the illnesses suffered by the girls in Yihongyuan were mostly similar, so she patiently prescribed medicine for them one by one and took out herbs from the carriage. In fact, these herbs were all taken out from her ring space.

By the time all the sisters had finished their examinations, it was already late at night. After Wang Xinyao had given Cui Yingying a detailed explanation of all the precautions, she said goodbye and walked out of Yihong Courtyard.

Wang Xinyao was driving the carriage and was about to set off when suddenly a figure appeared in the carriage. This person quickly hugged her tightly from behind!
