Chapter 2

Ye Xi really didn't know how to comfort the child and scratched her ears and cheeks anxiously. As soon as her hand touched her scalp, she gasped in pain.

She ignored the injury on her head and said to her child: "Chen'er, don't cry. Mom is really fine. Maybe, maybe it's because I have a headache, so I can't remember where the kitchen is. When Mom's headache stops, It won’t be like this anymore.”

"Really?" Ni Chen clearly didn't believe it and waved to Ye Xi: "Mother, squat down and I'll breathe for you so that you won't feel any pain."

Ye Xi obediently squatted in front of Ni Chen. Ni Chen gently opened her hair and looked at the bruises on her scalp and the bruises exposed outside her collar. He bit his lip and was about to cry again.

"Uuuu~, the eldest aunt and the second aunt went too far. They beat my mother all over her body with injuries. I, I will go find them to settle the score."

Ni Chen clenched his fists and turned to leave, but Ye Xi grabbed him.

"Chen'er, don't go. If your aunt and the others beat my mother, it's my mother who deserves the beating." Ye Xi glanced at the open door and said helplessly, "If my mother hadn't made a mistake first and interrupted you. Why would they hit mom on dad’s legs?”

Ni Chen held Ye Xi's legs with both hands and started crying: "Mother, but, they shouldn't beat mother like that!"

The image of the original owner being beaten by the Ni family flashed through Ni Chen's mind, and his little body kept shaking.

In the room, the future powerful minister Ni Ge's face was gloomy and unclear. He coughed twice, and the cold sound reached the ears of the two people at the door.

"Chen'er, take her to the kitchen!"

Upon hearing this, Ni Chen rushed into the room and replied: "Dad, I understand."

Ni Chen quickly pointed to Ye Xi's left: "Mother, where is the kitchen?"

Ni Chen led Ye Xi to the end of the house, pointed to the small shed set up against the wall and said, "Mother, that is our kitchen."

Ye Xi looked at the shed, which was only two or three square meters, and walked over.

It's so small, no wonder I didn't see it just now.

Ye Xi came to the kitchen in a few steps and saw everything in the kitchen clearly at a glance.

On the simple stove made of stone, there was an iron pot with half of it missing.On a long bench next to it, there were four or five cracked bowls and a few pairs of black chopsticks.There were only a few bowls of water left in a broken water tank.

Fortunately, there are two intact and clean buckets and a pole at the door of the kitchen.Otherwise, Ye Xi really doesn't know how to make this food?
Ye Xi sighed silently, picked up the bucket and walked outside.As soon as she reached the door of the yard, she asked Ni Chen again: "Chen'er, where is the well?"

Ni Chen hurriedly said: "Mother, I know. I will take you there!"

"Chen'er is so good!" Ye Xi said with a smile on his face: "Then mother, thank you Chen'er first."

Ni Chen grinned happily: "Mother, you're welcome."

Mother and son, one behind the other, walked toward the well in the village where they drew water.

Ye Xi looked at Ni Chen's back and recalled the plot in the book.

The original owner was also named Ye Xi, the daughter of Orion Ye Qiang.Ye Qiang once saved Ni Ge's parents, so she and Ni Ge made an appointment to get married when they were young.

But when the original protagonist grew up, she fell in love with the male protagonist, Ding Zhongwen, a scholar from the same village, and married Ni Ge completely unwillingly.

Ding Zhongwen and Ni Ge were classmates, both studying at Nanshan Academy in the county, so they were also rivals.

It just so happens that Nanshan Academy has a spot for a study tour to Fucheng next month, and the competitors happen to be Ni Ge and Ding Zhongwen.

The original owner heard Ding Zhongwen say that he did not want to lose this opportunity, and also said that after going to Fucheng and getting guidance from a famous teacher, it would be no problem to be named on the gold list.Ding Zhongwen also said that as long as he became an official, the first thing he would do was come back and marry the original owner.The original owner foolishly believed it, put a sweat medicine in Ni Ge's drinking water, and then broke his legs while he was unconscious.

Ni Ge missed two scientific examinations because he injured his leg.It wasn't until his legs healed that he passed the imperial examination six years later.

At this time, the male protagonist Ding Zhongwen had already become famous and became an important minister in the court.

Although Ni Ge passed three yuan, he was targeted by Ding Zhongwen everywhere, and he was also accused of spoiling his concubine, killing his wife, and being unfilial to his parents.

As a result, Ni Ge had not received the appointment letter from the Ministry of Personnel for three years in Kyoto.

It was the heroine who mediated between Ni Ge and Ding Zhongwen, making the two men who should have been at odds with each other become loyal friends.

After Ni Ge and Ding Zhongwen settled their differences, the two of them helped them reach the peak of their lives: one became a powerful minister who would tremble even if he stepped on one foot in Kyoto, and the other became the chief minister of the dynasty who was less than one person and more than ten thousand people.

The heroine is married to Ding Zhongwen, but still enjoys the admiration of powerful ministers.

The original owner, out of love and hatred, found a killer to deal with the heroine, but the heroine cleverly saw through it and died tragically on the street.

When Ye Xi wrote this book, he was so bloody.

At the request of a reader with the same name as the original owner, she arranged for the original owner to do a good deed before he died from the poison, and blocked a poisonous arrow for his son Ni Chen.

Ye Xi looked at Ni Chen's bouncing back and thought that in the book, Ni Chen also wanted to be liked by his mother, and even sang opposite Ni Chen more than once for the sake of the original author.

But as for the original owner, even after being poisoned by Ni Ge, he still didn't stop seeking death.Not only did she hate Ni Ge, she also disliked her biological son.

"Chen'er." Ye Xi called out apologetically, thinking of the indifferent treatment of Ni Chen by his original owner.

Ni Chen jumped and turned around, looking at Ye Xi with bright eyes and asked: "Mother, did you call me?"

"Yes." Ye Xi reached out and grabbed the little hand that Ni Chen extended, and asked in a low voice: "Chen'er, I remember our family is very big. Why is what I see different from what I remember?"

Ni Chen's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Mother, do you remember what happened before?"

Ye Xi nodded: "Yes, I remember some. I remember that there are many people in our family. Why didn't I see your grandparents and your uncle today?"

When Ni Chen heard what Ye Xi said, the light in Ni Chen's eyes slowly dimmed, and he said sadly: "Mother, after you beat dad, our family was kicked out by our grandparents."

"The place where we live now is a haunted house in the village that no one lives in. It is far away from where everyone lives."

"They said that my father has spent a lot of money on his education over the years. Now that he is disabled, they will not spend money on our family."

"By the way, that's what they said, let our family fend for ourselves!"

Ni Chen finished speaking clearly, his eyes were already red, and he choked with sobs: "Brother Baoyu and Sister Baozhu, they don't play with Chen'er now."

Ye Xi put down the pole, squatted next to Ni Chen, raised his sleeves to wipe away his tears, and said solemnly: "Chen'er, I'm sorry, it's all my mother's fault."

"No! Mom is right." Ni Chen threw himself into Ye Xi's arms and said with a tearful voice, "Mother is the best mother in the world, and no one can compare with her."

"Okay!" Ye Xi's heart moved slightly: "Mom, I will treat Chen'er well from now on and be the best mother to Chen'er!"
