Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 211

Qin Jianxi's messy hair was soaked, but her face was clean. She wiped the water droplets off her face, turned around, met Qin Chuyao's gaze without flinching, and smiled calmly.

"I am Qin Jianxi."

Qin Chuyao said in a deep voice, "You can't be the original Qin Jianxi. You've taken over her body?"

Qin Jianxi smiled, avoiding the question: "You're a reincarnated person, aren't you?"

This time, it was Qin Chuyao's turn to change his expression.

Qin Jianxi continued, "You always say that your dreams can predict future events, but that's not actually true. What you're talking about are all experiences from your past life. You lived one life and were reborn back to when you were three years old, right?"

Qin Chuyao looked at her silently, without denying it.

The two children looked at each other, but their gazes were those of two adults.

After a long time, Qin Chuyao finally said, "And who are you? My sister from my past life, Qin Jianxi, was just a normal girl, completely different from you."

Qin Jianxi said, "You have your secrets, and I have mine. Like you, I have a past life, but it's best not to tell you about my origins right now. I'm sorry for taking over your sister's body, but it wasn't my choice, and I can't give her back to you now."

Qin Chuyao then asked, "So what do you want to do?"

Qin Jianxi chuckled: "I don't want to do anything. It's a rare opportunity to live again, and I just want to live this life to the fullest. You must feel the same way now that you've been reborn, right?"

Qin Chuyao acquiesced once again.

He not only wanted to live a good life for himself, but also wanted his mother to live a good life for him.

In his previous life, he grew up in the countryside until he was three years old. After Liu Manman entered the family, Shen Lingjun also brought him and his sister back.

However, Qin Shaoze refused to change his status to heir apparent, and Old Madam Qin even wanted to get rid of the three of them, mother and sons. The conflict between the two sides became increasingly intense, and Old Madam Qin eventually set a large fire, in which she herself lost her life.

Shen Lingjun rescued Qin Chuyao and Qin Jianxi from the fire, but Qin Jianxi was crushed by a falling beam, leaving her paralyzed in both legs and unable to walk again.

Later, Shen Lingjun devised a plan to eliminate both Qin Shaoze and Liu Shi. She remained a widow thereafter, and Qin Chuyao eventually inherited the title of Marquis of Yongning.

Shen Lingjun spared no effort and searched the world for rare and precious medicines, finally curing Qin Jianxi's legs. However, she herself paid the price with her life in the search for the medicine, and her health deteriorated. She died of her illness when Qin Chuyao was eighteen years old.

A few years later, Qin Chuyao also died on the battlefield in a major battle between the Northern Yi and the Western Qi.

Qin Chuyao didn't resent Qin Jianxi; he just felt that if her legs hadn't been crippled, Shen Lingjun wouldn't have died so young.

Having been given a second chance at life, he would never let such tragedies happen again.

Therefore, he took the initiative and sent Shen Lingjun to rescue the Sixth Prince, thus directly seizing the position of Crown Prince.

Later, it foreshadowed the outbreak of the plague in Kyoto, allowing Shen Lingjun to make a contribution.

I don’t know if it’s because of his rebirth, but the trajectory of everything has changed from his previous life.

In this life, Old Mrs. Qin had already suffered a stroke before setting that fire, and Liu Manman had also died. The three of them, mother and children, were living better and better lives.

And then there's Qin Jianxi now.

When he returned from his rebirth, he noticed that something was wrong with Qin Jianxi. The current Qin Jianxi was just like him, an adult in the traditional sense, only with the body of a child.

He initially thought Qin Jianxi had also been reborn, but he gradually realized that she hadn't. The current Qin Jianxi had a completely different personality; she wasn't his taciturn, insecure, and sensitive sister from his previous life who was paralyzed.

She seems to be hiding a lot of talent.

Qin Chuyao said calmly, "As long as you do nothing to harm Mother, I don't care about your background."
