"Doctor, is my wife alright? Why hasn't she woken up yet? "
"From the results of the examination, other than some external injuries and a slight fracture in her left leg, there are no other problems. She should be able to wake up soon."
"I see. Doctor, if she wakes up, can we go home? Can we not stay in the hospital? "
"This … If you insist on going home to recuperate, you can. But be careful not to touch her leg. You have to recuperate for two months."
"Okay, okay. Thank you, doctor."
Tang Tang's ears perked up as she eavesdropped on the conversation between the two people beside her. However, her eyes were still closed and she did not dare to open them. She even deliberately kept her breathing steady so that no one could tell that she was actually awake.
When the conversation between the two people ended, the sound of footsteps faded away. The man who was talking seemed to have left. Only the woman who was talking earlier was left in the room.
"Sigh, she really can't stop for even a moment. It's really bad luck to marry such a woman. What was she thinking when she married such a talented person?" After the woman said this, she seemed to have thought of something. "Ah!" She hurriedly ran out. The room immediately fell into silence.
After confirming that there was no one else around, Tang Tang dared to slowly open her eyes. What entered her sight was a glaring white. A square object of unknown shape was fixed on the roof.
Tang Tang exhaled softly. Her gaze slowly moved to the other things in the room. However, the more she looked, the more uneasy she felt. Her heart was hanging in the air.
Why is this place so strange? There were many things she had never seen before. Moreover, the clothes of the people who walked by the door were also very strange. The men's hair was very, very short. The women's hair was even loose. No matter how she looked at it, it was very strange.
Where am I?
She was clearly dead. Her sister pushed her into the water. So many people saw it, but no one came to save her. The only wet nurse who would love her was also chased out of the mansion. No one would come to save her anymore. She had no meaning in living. She might as well give up struggling and let the water completely submerge her. Perhaps she could go down to see her mother below and experience the feeling of a mother's love. So, shouldn't she be in the Underworld? Why is she here?
Is this Hell? No, no, no, it couldn't be. Even if she didn't know what the Underworld looked like, she was sure that this wasn't it. This was because she was sure that this was a living world. The people she saw were all alive. It wasn't the Underworld at all.
Tang Tang became more and more confused. She pinched her arm hard with her hand, and the pain almost made her cry out. This meant that she was not dreaming. Everything now was real.
Unable to figure out what was going on, Tang Tang subconsciously lowered her head to look at herself. What she saw gave her another shock.
She was too skinny, unimaginably skinny. Her wrist was so thin that it seemed like it would break with a twist. Her hands were like chicken claws, without any flesh. Her bones were protruding, as if they would pierce through her skin in the next second. What was even more frightening was that because she was too skinny, her skin was covered with blue veins. She looked particularly scary, a stark contrast to her original appearance.
Tang Tang was sure that this wasn't her at all. This body wasn't hers. She was now in someone else's body!
This thought scared Tang Tang so much that her heart pounded. An inconceivable but irrefutable fact was right in front of her eyes: she seemed to have come back to life, just as described in those novels!
Tang Tang hurriedly pinched herself a few more times. It was so painful that tears came out, but there was still no change. She had indeed come back to life.
Tang Tang's heart was beating faster and faster. She didn't know what to do. She could only close her eyes again, touch her heart, and force herself to digest this fact.
In the past, when she had nothing to do, her biggest hobby was to read novels, especially novels about demons and ghosts. There was once a story about a reincarnation in someone else's body. The protagonist of the story was wrongly killed, and after death, he possessed another person's body and was reborn. Then, he went to find his original enemy and seek revenge. She had read a lot of such stories. She had even fantasized that one day she could live happily as another person like the characters in the stories. However, every time her wet nurse would pour cold water on her, saying that the stories were fake and that she would only become stupid if she read too much. Then, she would confiscate her novels and not let her read them.
She didn't expect that one day, she would really become another person. Such a thing actually existed in this world!
She just didn't know where this place was. Maybe it was a dynasty she had never heard of.
Then who was she now? She didn't know anything. What should she do? However, before she could think about what to do next, there was a voice outside the door again. It was the woman who had spoken before. She was still complaining, "Fortunately, the kindergarten is close to here. Otherwise, it would be too late. Alas, I'm so busy."
This time, Tang Tang didn't choose to pretend to be asleep. She opened her eyes and looked at the woman. It was a middle-aged woman. She was white and fat and looked very kind. However, when she saw that she was awake, her eyes immediately became unfriendly. There was a faint impatience in her eyes, and her tone was not very friendly either.
"Madam, you're finally awake."
Tang Tang pursed her lips and didn't speak. She was afraid that she would say something wrong if she opened her mouth.
Seeing that she didn't speak, the woman didn't care. She began to tidy up the things on the bedside table and said, "Madam, since you're awake, let's leave the hospital. Your leg is just a little fractured. You'll be fine after a few months of rest. There's no need to stay in the hospital. Not to mention that it's expensive, I don't have time to take care of you. Sir asked me to take care of Xiaozhuo.
Madam? She called her Madam? Then who was she?
Seeing that Tang Tang was in a daze and didn't say anything, the woman frowned and said patiently, "Madam, don't have a problem with me. After all, Sir asked me to take care of Xiaozhuo. I put him first. If I take care of you here, I won't be able to take care of Xiaozhuo. Sir will be unhappy, so you'd better go home and recuperate. Just now, the doctor said that you can go home."
Sir? Madam? Xiaozhuo? Who were these people? Tang Tang had a lot of questions in her heart, but she didn't dare to speak rashly. She could only wait and see what would happen next. So, Tang Tang nodded at the woman.
The woman didn't seem to expect that Tang Tang would agree so easily. She looked at her in surprise. Originally, she planned to leave as soon as Tang Tang made trouble. After all, Sir would definitely stand on her side. She didn't expect that Tang Tang didn't make trouble at all this time. This was not like her.
Tang Tang felt uncomfortable under the woman's gaze. She looked away and her palms began to sweat. She was afraid that she would give herself away. After all, no matter how stupid she was, she knew that she couldn't casually tell others that she had reincarnated in someone else's body. If that happened, she would be burned to death as a monster.
The woman looked at Tang Tang for a while and didn't see anything wrong with her. She turned her head and continued to pack up. There weren't many things, so she quickly finished packing. The woman handed the crutches she bought to Tang Tang, then carried the things out of the door. "Let's go home."
Tang Tang picked up the crutches, lifted the quilt, and slowly moved out of bed. Only then did she see that her left leg was wrapped with something white, like a bandage. It should be this leg that was injured.
Tang Tang got off the bed with the help of her crutches and realized that she could still walk like this. She then silently followed behind the woman, trying her best to keep up with the woman's speed. At the same time, she quietly observed everything around her. However, every time she saw something, she would be more surprised. There were many things that she didn't even know what they were, especially when she was sitting on something that looked like an iron box. With a swipe of the box, she could travel a great distance, much faster than a carriage. She never knew that there was such a thing! If it weren't for the fear of being found out, she would definitely not be able to keep her mouth shut.
When the iron box finally stopped, when she saw the house that was so high that she couldn't see the top, Tang Tang silently patted her small chest and tried to pretend to be calm as she followed behind the woman.
Aunt Li opened the door, ignored Tang Tang behind her, and directly put the things in her hands on the table. Then she said, "Xiaozhuo, are you hungry? Grandma Li will cook. It will be ready soon. "
"Grandma Li, I'm not hungry." A childish voice replied.
Only then did Tang Tang see the little boy lying on the carpet in the room with his little butt sticking out. She only felt her eyes light up. What a beautiful baby! He was only three or four years old. His whole body was chubby, his skin was white and tender, his cheeks were chubby, and his eyes were black like grapes. He looked like a glutinous rice ball. Tang Tang had never seen such a cute and beautiful baby. She was immediately attracted to him. She looked at him again and again and couldn't move her eyes away.
Unfortunately, the baby didn't seem to like her very much. When he saw her, he pursed his lips and snorted. He immediately turned his head and continued to play, as if he didn't want to see her.
Tang Tang was a little helpless. She didn't understand why it seemed that the people in this house didn't like her very much. Could it be that the owner of this body was a very annoying person?
Seeing that Tang Tang was standing at the door without moving, Aunt Li looked at her doubtfully. She didn't want to interfere, but if something really happened to her, she wouldn't be able to explain it. So she patiently said to her, "Madam, hurry up and go back to your room to rest. Don't move around. If something happens to your leg, no one will take responsibility."
Tang Tang didn't know where her room was. At a glance, there seemed to be four rooms in the house, but which one was hers?
After thinking for a moment, Tang Tang said, "That … my leg hurts a little. I can't walk. Can you help me to my room?"
Aunt Li paused. She was impatient, but she still went forward to help her into her room. However, she had accumulated a lot of anger today, so she couldn't help nagging, "Madam, although I'm an outsider and I'm not qualified to say anything, after all, I've taken care of Xiaozhuo for so long. Xiaozhuo calls me Grandma Li, so I want to say a few words. You're Mr. Li's wife, Xiaozhuo's mother. Even if you don't like them, you should act like a wife and mother. I don't ask you to treat them well, but don't cause them trouble. This request isn't too much, right? Mr. Li is raising the family alone, and being a soldier is so hard. You should be considerate. "
Tang Tang didn't answer, but her heart was shocked by Aunt Li's words. She … she was married? And she was a mother? Then, was that little boy just now her current child?
