Chapter 8 Reincarnation
"No, young lady!"

Xiao Die refused Wei Xiao Niang's order and wouldn't accept the bracelet that was offered to her!
"I can't listen to you on that!"

"This is the last thing the old lady left for you!"

Xiaodie immediately revealed the significance of the bracelet.

The old lady Xiaodie mentioned is Wei Xiaoniang's biological mother, who is also Xiaominglan's maternal grandmother.

In fact, Wei Xiaoniang's real name was Wei Shuyi. She came from a family of farmers and scholars, and was the daughter of a scholar. She was a well-bred young lady and should not have become a concubine in the Sheng family.

However, due to the decline of her family's fortunes and the sudden misfortune that led to poverty, and with her father falling ill and bedridden, Wei Xiaoniang had no choice but to become a concubine and enter the Sheng family in exchange for medical expenses in order to save her family members.

Unfortunately, even so, the old man of the Wei family still passed away, and from then on, only Wei Xiaoniang and her sister, Wei Wanru, remained in the Wei family.

Moreover, this bracelet was the last keepsake left by the mother of the Wei sisters. All the other items had been pawned to pay for their father's medical expenses. In addition, the eldest sister felt sorry for her younger sister, so she left all of their parents' belongings to her as a keepsake.

From this, we can understand its significance to Wei Xiaoniang.

"Ugh!"

Wei Xiaoniang looked wistful, her hands lingering on the silver bracelet in her wrists. Though she was unwilling, her face was resolute as she murmured, "If not this way, then what else can I do?"

It seemed as if he was feeling melancholy alone, or perhaps he was compassionate towards all humanity.

However, in an instant, Wei Xiaoniang suddenly remembered the current situation and quickly changed her words, saying, "It's just a bracelet, not worth it!"

Seeing his master so humble, clearly deserving of his due share, yet being targeted and deliberately treated harshly by villains, he was forced to sell his personal belongings to provide for the young lady to keep warm.

"Young lady, you..."

With a sob in her voice, Xiaodie made up her mind that no matter what, she must protect her master's bracelet!
"Alright, Xiaodie!"

Seeing her maidservant saddened and in tears because she felt sorry for her, Wei Xiaoniang couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort.

"You! You're such a grown-up, why do you still act like a child, bursting into tears at the slightest thing?"

"What if Ming'er sees this?"

Wei Xiaoniang smiled and continued to extend the bracelet in her hand, wanting to hand it to Xiaodie.

"Hurry up and take it, or it'll be hard to explain if Ming'er sees this!"

……

lobby.

"call!"

After throwing another difficult arrow, Xiao Minglan pursed her lips, feeling a sense of relief.

"Fortunately, I haven't let my mother down!"

Turning her head, with her big, round eyes wide open, Xiao Minglan looked at the "big villain" beside her and said in a sweet voice.

"Okay, it's your turn!"

On the field, Si Zheng looked at the score and announced loudly, "Bai Er, twenty points!"

"The Sheng family is in the lead!"

Ye Ge glanced down at the "little chubby girl" beside him, and couldn't help but chuckle at her smug look after making the shot.

"Alright! This girl is so young, it's not easy for her, so I'll let her give way, which will be a fair exchange between the two families!"

In Ye Ge'er's heart, he really didn't want to make things difficult for the marriage between the Sheng family and the Yuan family. Now, it was a good opportunity, so he simply pretended to admit defeat.

So, Ye Ge'er met Sheng Minglan's gaze, nodded, and said, "Mm!"

After saying that, he took out two arrows from the pot, seemingly intending to throw them both at once.

"what?"

Xiao Minglan was startled and nervously looked at the arrow in the other person's hand, feeling uneasy.

"Could it be? He can also shoot two shots?"

Unexpectedly, if this Ye-ge'er truly possessed the skill, he could not only pierce the ear, but also scatter arrows. "Buzz!"

However, just as Ye Ge'er took the arrow, a sudden gust of wind swept across the sky.

"call!"

"call!!"

A fierce wind rises from the ground, and the wind rages across the land.

The strange wind rose quickly and fiercely, and in the blink of an eye it had swept over the guests' eyes, making it impossible for them to see.

"Oh! The wind is picking up!"

"It's such a strong wind!"

"..."

For a moment, the guests were all talking about it, and their desire to watch the excitement faded away.

On the contrary, the two heads of the Sheng family were secretly delighted!
"it is good!"

"This wind is just right!"

Sheng Hong was overjoyed. The Sheng family was currently in the lead in the pitching game, and with the strong winds, it was clear that the game could not continue. So, if they didn't withdraw now, when would they?
"Gentlemen, it's getting windy, let's hurry inside and have some drinks!"

While shielding his eyes from the wind and sand with his sleeve, Sheng Hong loudly comforted the guests, preparing to end this farcical farce that had become a laughing stock for the Sheng family.

"Yes! Yes!"

"It's warmer inside!"

Madam Wang also chimed in, and at the same time, she reached out and pulled some of the noblewomen, pushing and pulling them all into the house, ready to put an end to the bet.

The guests, naturally, could not contradict the host, so even though they still had some desire to watch the excitement, they had to suppress it and obediently return to the living room.

"Well?"

Seeing this, Minglan could only turn around and exchange a glance with her maid Xiaotao. They smiled at each other, then held hands and excitedly left the place with the others.

However, Minglan felt a great sense of relief.

"That was close!"

If the competition continues, and that guy also hits the bullseye, then Sheng Minglan won't be able to catch up!
After all, Sheng Changfeng had previously fallen far behind in the score.

Looking back one last time, seeing Ye Ge'er standing in the strong wind, holding two arrows, Xiao Minglan quickened her pace and skipped towards her mother's courtyard, ready to show off her skills and gain some praise.

"Hehe, this time my little sister will definitely praise me!"

However, what Xiao Minglan didn't see was that the two arrows, even in the strong wind, still hit their targets steadily!

"when!"

The lingering sound echoed, and Ye Ge'er was finally hit by another pot!
Unfortunately, the official in charge of pitch-pot had already gone inside to drink, and no one around could see him.

……

At this moment, in some mysterious place, Meng Yue listened to the soft Wu dialect coming from the outside world, but his heart began to feel cold.

"Have I... traveled through time?"

At this moment, after comparing his own environment with the voices around him, Meng Yue finally made a bold deduction.

"wrong!"

"It's not just time travel, it's probably reincarnation!"

Feeling the rhythm around him and hearing the faint sound of flowing water, Meng Yue was certain that this time, he had probably been struck by the eclipse lightning and sent to another world, where he was reincarnated!

I didn't enter the palace, I was just running two jobs, lalala...
