At this time, Brother Nan and the others came out, and the housekeeper recognized Auntie at once.
"Oh, it's Rouge. We are just about to go find you. Dad is dead. How is such a young child going to live? Take her to find his parents!"
"Okay!" My aunt agreed immediately and took out some more money, "Xi'er thanks you all for taking care of us all these years. This can be regarded as dad's funeral expenses. It's not easy for everyone."
The housekeeper pushed and gave in for a long time before accepting it, and took Brother Nan to say goodbye in a hurry.
"Yes, there is no profit on the island, and everyone is not rich."
"Xi'er, you can follow me from now on. Now I will take you to take a bath and change clothes. Look at you, you are so dirty." My aunt said with a disgusted smile.
In the evening, Aunt Rouge took me to a high building, pointed to the very high mountain on the horizon, and said to me:
"Xi'er, do you know where that is?"
She paused, and I shook my head,
"Qiwu Mountain, that is Qiwu Mountain. The place where your mother was born is your home. Your mother, Wu Zixin, is the heir of Qiwu Mountain and the princess. And you are not a poor thing that no one wants. You are the princess of Tongcheng—Princess Yunxi."
"As for the family in the big house, they are thieves and despicable robbers. It was my aunt who was sorry for you and let them steal your phoenix palace, which made you unable to return to that home and living outside. I failed your mother's love for you. My trust... But don’t worry, I will definitely get back what they stole from you.”
Living in Wushan, mother, princess, home, I looked at my aunt with a confused look.
My aunt held my hand tightly and looked at Qiwu Mountain in the distance with a solemn face...
"And I am not your real aunt. When your mother gave birth to you, I was the maid that Yu Shaoliang, the master of the big house, bought for your mother with ulterior motives."
"My mission is to gain your mother's trust and help Yu Shaoliang get everything, everything... from your mother."
I opened my mouth wide in surprise and looked at Aunt Rouge stupidly. Auntie glanced at me and smiled sadly,
"However, God did not follow people's wishes. When your mother gave birth to you, Mrs. Mitya's water also broke. No one was there to deliver you. Your mother had a hard time giving birth to you, and she eventually bled to death."
"Master Yu Shaoliang took this opportunity to let me steal your mother's only token that proves your identity - Feng Que. He used his twin daughter to take your identity. The whole family moved to Tongcheng and settled in Fengming Que. .”
"And because I only got Feng Que, I will be useless from now on. I was thrown out by the master, and even though I was allowed to be the butler, I also broke my promise. Hahahaha, Yu Shaoliang, you will regret it!"
After a burst of crazy laughter, my aunt asked me:
"Xi'er, where is the sign my aunt gave you?"
"here I am."
I pulled out a jade pendant as big as my palm from around my neck.
"Well, keep it well. This is your father's thing. Now, I don't know where he is. My aunt will take you to find him and let him avenge your mother and take back your identity as a princess. Haha Haha, when the time comes, just don’t forget how good I am to your aunt.”
"No, aunt, without you, I would have starved to death."
I smiled sweetly, took my aunt's hand and said.
My mother has been gone for many years, and I have no means of making a living. I don’t want to live another day of the hungry and cold days I had before my father died. Now, I can only rely on my aunt, not to mention that she should be my only hope to find my father.
Although I am young, I am not confused. The days when I grew up living with my father taught me that people must live. As long as they live, everything is still possible. If they die, it will be over and everything will be vain.
Back to the inn, it was already midnight.
In the past few days, Panlong City has become lively again. It is rumored that the young master of Panlong City, Long Yiyun, who is nearly 30 years old, is going to marry the Tu family in Gusu, Jiangbei. For a time, the official road leading to Panlong City was filled with traffic and a constant stream of traffic...
Aunt Rouge also took me with her, crowded into the crowd of people joining in the fun, and meandering towards the direction of Panlong City.
