The Daily Life of a Concubine's Daughter After Transmigrating
Chapter 2 The beginning of the collapse of heaven
Aunt Xia stood up and said.
"Before I entered the manor, I helped my mother manage the affairs of the inner courtyard. I am willing to share your burdens, Madam."
"Then you do it!" The old lady waved her hand casually, as if anyone but Madam Zhao could take charge.
"Yes." Aunt Xia couldn't suppress the urge to smile when she saw Madam Zhao's unpleasant expression.
"Alright, that's enough! You all need to keep your mouths shut. Don't say a word about what happened today, or you'll become a laughing stock in the whole capital!" the old lady said.
"Yes."
Everyone bowed in unison.
"I'm tired, you should all go back to your rooms."
"Yes, see the old lady off."
The old lady was helped into her bedroom by her maids, and then everyone in the hall dispersed.
Li Anqi's legs went numb after kneeling for so long.
Zhilan and Liuyun helped her up, and she was able to get up with difficulty.
Suddenly, a figure blocked her way.
Li Anqi looked up and saw that the person who came was Li Baoqin.
Li Baoqin's eyes were filled with anger, but she still wore a confident expression that regarded others as ants.
"Little sister~ Things are different now, so don't try anything funny in the future! Otherwise, I'll pay you back tenfold!"
Li Anqi smiled and said, "Sister, you're overthinking it. This time, I really know I was wrong."
Li Baoqin's expression clearly showed disbelief. She crossed her arms, gave a disdainful snort, and left Fushoutang.
Li Anqi composed himself and, with Zhilan's help, returned to the original owner's room.
Li Anqi sat in front of the dressing table, carefully examining the twelve or thirteen-year-old girl in the mirror who shared the same name as her, with almond-shaped eyes, cherry lips, and a slightly chubby face.
This dynasty, named Xin, does not belong to any dynasty in Chinese history, yet it possesses a history similar to modern times, as if it were an ancient timeline in a parallel world.
The original owner's father was Duke Jingguo, Li Miao.
My grandmother was a first-rank imperial consort and the younger sister of the current Empress Dowager.
The original owner's birth mother was Li Miao's maid, Xu Shuyuan, who passed away many years ago.
The original owner also had a younger sister, Li Anshu, who was only ten years old. She looked somewhat similar to the original owner, especially her almond-shaped eyes.
Although born into the Duke's mansion, the original owner was a concubine's daughter. Her birth mother died early, and she was raised by Li Miao's legal wife, Madam Zhao.
Madam Zhao was gentle and virtuous. She never hit or scolded the children, but she also never disciplined them and continued to let them run wild.
It was precisely because of this that the original owner developed a wild nature that made him disliked by others.
When Xu Shuyuan was still alive, Li Miao treated the original owner and Li Anshu quite well.
Since Xu Shuyuan's death, Li Miao has been extremely indifferent to his two daughters, and only dotes on his legitimate daughters Li Anxiu and Li Baoqin.
As time went on, the original owner gradually developed jealousy.
The original owner went to an anthill to collect ants and secretly put them into Li Baoqin's snacks. Then she found cow dung and smeared it on Li Baoqin's bed and shoes. Using these low-level methods, she openly expressed her anger and resentment.
After the incident, Li Miao whipped the original owner dozens of times, but she still didn't learn her lesson.
This time, she actually wanted to push Li Baoqin into the lotus pond to drown her, but she didn't expect that the original owner herself would be pushed into the water from behind.
Who exactly pushed the original owner into the water?
Li Anqi's whereabouts are unknown.
All she knew was that...
The original owner of this body was capricious and jealous, a vicious illegitimate daughter who was disliked by everyone.
On the contrary, the eldest daughter, Li Baoqin, is well-educated, gentle, and obedient. She is the darling of the Jingguo Mansion, who has been pampered since childhood.
This time, Li Baoqin and Li Anqi have already died after falling into the water.
That transmigrated woman transmigrated into Li Baoqin's body, continuing to receive unparalleled favor and a noble status.
But for me, things started off badly, and I was transmigrated into the body of this detestable little illegitimate daughter.
The days ahead probably won't be so easy.
Li Anqi recalls his past self before he traveled through time.
From elementary school to university, I was always a loner and a top student. When I had free time, I would just quietly do some handicrafts. I never even had a serious relationship.
The only people he truly cares about are his few close relatives.
I don't know if my body in the modern world is alive or dead, and whether I can travel back in time.
Li Anqi had no way of knowing any of this.
The situation is now settled.
Having transmigrated to this era, I can only go with the flow, take it one step at a time, and try my best to integrate into this era... I hope this era will treat me kindly as well.
……
Li Anqi had to copy the twenty recitations of the "Women's Virtues" text every day after school, and it took her three whole months to complete before she could hand it in to the old lady.
Aunt Zhilan is gentle and kind, and she teaches etiquette and principles with great patience.
The maids in the room all respected Zhilan, and Li Anqi thought she was a good person.
Every day at school, everyone would kowtow to Confucius as a matter of course.
The new tutor, surnamed Jiang, was a learned and highly respected scholar who had passed the imperial examinations.
Li Anqi heard from Aunt Zhilan that the Emperor once summoned Master Jiang to the Hanlin Academy to become a scholar, but Master Jiang had no interest in the court and only wanted to study his own academic work, so he politely declined the Emperor's offer.
It just so happened that Master Jiang had some connection with Li Miao, which is why he was invited to be the teacher in the family school.
Master Jiang looked at the young ladies and gentlemen under the desks and nodded in satisfaction.
"Everyone arrived today, that's good."
Li Anqi knew that there was a reason why he said that.
Ever since Li Baoqin transmigrated, she has been very impatient with going to school.
However, due to her status as the legitimate daughter of the Jingguo Mansion, she had no choice but to accept the urging of Madam Zhao and the old lady, and had to come to the family school every day.
Li Anqi could roughly guess from Li Baoqin's words and actions.
Li Baoqin disliked and even disliked the etiquette system of this era.
She frequently takes sick leave and spends all her time in her room researching "high-tech" things, seemingly only wanting to leverage her modern advantages to make a name for herself.
"Time is money, but money can't buy time."
When the teacher said this, Li Baoqin, who had been drowsy, suddenly opened her eyes and slammed her hand on the desk.
Li Anqi looked at Li Baoqin and saw that she was like a wooden sculpture, seemingly deep in thought.
Master Jiang tapped the table with his ruler: "Does the young lady have something to say?"
"That's right!"
Li Baoqin stood up and said with righteous indignation.
“The Master is right, time is money. I’m sorry, Baoqin, I can’t waste any more time on these classical texts! I have more important things to do, so I won’t be coming to this school anymore!”
