As its name suggested, the warm room was as warm as spring. There was a small flower bud in the corner of the wall.
It was already midwinter. Except for the wintersweet, other plants wanted to shrink into the ground for the winter. Unexpectedly, the warm room was so green. Jiujiu immediately came forward to take a closer look.
It turned out to be a pot of jasmine. Probably because the temperature in the warm room was extremely high, new leaves grew and buds grew. She was afraid that a new stamen would appear in a few days.
Jiujiu poked the flower bud. After looking at it for a while, she stood up and said to Dong'er, "Dong'er, I'm hungry. Is there anything to eat?"
"Miss, the ancestor asked someone to send you cloud cake. Do you want to eat it now?"
"Yes." Jiujiu nodded.
Dong 'er strode out, and not long after, she returned with an exquisite lunchbox. She opened it, and the pastries inside were still steaming. The sweet aroma of pastries spread throughout the house, and Jiujiu swallowed her saliva reflexively, even though she was starving.
Dong'er took out the pastries in the food box one by one. Although the ancestor said that the cloud cake was sent to Jiujiu, there were four or five kinds of pastries in the food box.
Jiujiu went to the table and ate a few pieces. When she felt that she was 30% full, she withdrew her hand.
Dong'er asked confusedly, "Miss, don't you want to eat?"
Jiujiu waved her hand, "The ancestor must ask me to eat later. Now I'm full. It's not good to eat later."
Only then did Dong'er understand the reason. She quickly put away the rest of the pastries. But the way she looked at Jiujiu was more unusual. She served her more carefully.
Second Sister had such a vision at a young age. If she was raised by the ancestor in the future, her future would be bright. Dong'er didn't know which family's childe was so lucky to marry Second Sister.
After a while, Mammy Li came to ask Jiujiu to eat.
Dong 'er was even more impressed with Jiujiu now.
After the meal, the Elder Madam asked a few questions about Jiujiu's courses these days in a low voice. She frowned and nodded from time to time. When she was almost done, she asked Dong 'er to leave with Jiujiu. Then she asked Mammy Li to find some teachers for Jiujiu.
Mammy Li was puzzled and asked, "I understand that Old Ancestor likes Second Sister, but now Second Sister and Eldest Sister have the same master. If you only look for Second Sister, I'm afraid it will be eye-catching."
The Elder Ancestor's expression was slightly sluggish. After a moment, he nodded and said, "That's right. Erya's head is still small now. It's not good for her to attract people's attention. Thank you for reminding me. How about this? You can also find a few masters for Eldest Sister and Eldest Brother, so that they won't make a fuss and say that I'm biased."
Then Mammy Li left.
The Elder Madam sighed. This Second Sister was good, but Eldest Sister and Eldest Brother were not necessarily so.
Eldest Sister's wife was demure and dignified. She had a very good reputation before she got married. Unfortunately, she was too demure and dignified. In order to pursue a good reputation, she always did some absurd things.
It was clear that Second Sister's talent was better, but she strived to be exactly the same, so that she delayed Second Sister's good talent. Now that she had her, no one could delay Second Sister's talent.
At night, Zhenyuan Hou was naturally furious when he came back.
But now Xue Bitao was still lying in bed in a coma, and First Madam's eyes were swollen like walnuts because of her worry. Although Zhenyuan Hou was furious, he could only scold a few words in the end and let it go. However, he had a bad opinion of First Madam.
Yesterday, he punished Eldest Sister to kneel for two hours. If First Madam hadn't broken into the study and begged for mercy, Eldest Sister wouldn't have had the strength to go skating today. It was true that a kind mother spoiled her son.
On this day, Zhenyuan Hou went directly to the study.
First Madam didn't sleep all night, and the second branch was naturally busy.
The next day, Xue Bitao woke up.
No, it could be said that Xue Bitao came back to life again.
Xue Bitao would never forget that night. The man she liked told her that he had always liked her sister Xue Biyu, and even did a series of absurd acts without caring that Xue Biyu was already married. And the General rebelled in order to have Xue Biyu forever. What she couldn't stand the most was that her husband poisoned her little by little in order to let Xue Biyu see his true feelings, and didn't even spare their child.
However.
He also didn't get Xue Biyu. He was killed on the dragon throne by the angry General, and Xue Biyu, that hateful woman, didn't know anything.
She didn't know that her brother-in-law coveted her, and even killed his wife and children for her. She didn't know that her husband usurped the throne in order to have her. She didn't know anything. She was just like the rumors outside, noble and innocent.
Even if Xue Bitao understood that all of this had nothing to do with Xue Biyu, she still hated Xue Biyu to death. If she was the only daughter of the Xue Family, she would be happy regardless of whether she married the General or the Emperor. But there was an extra Xue Biyu.
Xue Biyu was the stumbling block on her path to happiness. If Xue Biyu existed, there wouldn't be her.
Xue Bitao clenched her fists. Since she had a chance to start over, she would definitely not repeat the same mistakes. This time, she would firmly hold her fate in the palm of her hand. As for Xue Biyu, since she had wronged her in her previous life, then she would use this life to pay for the mistakes she made in her previous life.
Jiujiu once again came to visit Xue Bitao with the old ancestor, but she didn't know why, but the way Xue Bitao looked at her today was different.
In the past, although Xue Bitao didn't like her very much, the way she looked at her was never so complicated.
It was absolutely impossible for a child to have such a complicated look, but it was also impossible for a transmigrator to have such a look. Because even if a transmigrator had the original owner's memories, it was impossible for her to have such deep-seated hatred at the first sight of her. Even if she quickly withdrew her gaze, Jiujiu was sensitive enough to notice it.
Jiujiu was sure that this Xue Bitao must have been reborn. Looking at her appearance, it seemed that she had some enmity with Xue Biyu. Associating it with the matter of Xue Bitao framing Xue Biyu to marry the Crown Prince, Jiujiu guessed that Xue Bitao must have married the Crown Prince before she was reborn, and had a very bad life.
After all, if she had a good life, it was absolutely impossible for her to be reborn with hatred, and even more impossible for her to personally push Xue Biyu to the Crown Prince's side.
All of this pointed to a problem, that was, Xue Bitao and the Crown Prince had a bad life, and the reason was very likely because of Xue Biyu.
Jiujiu furrowed her brows. She really couldn't understand why Xue Biyu and Xue Bitao had a bad life. It was really puzzling.
When Xue Bitao saw the old ancestor bringing Jiujiu in, although she was a little curious when Jiujiu and the old ancestor became so close, she still obediently greeted: "Bitao greets the old ancestor."
The old ancestor had a harmonious smile on her face. She sat by the bed and held Xue Bitao's shoulders to help her lie down. She said kindly: "Bitao, quickly lie down. I came to see if you're feeling better."
