Chapter 1 Mean, sinister and vicious by nature?

It was late in the winter day, and the sky was still a little dim at the beginning of the morning.

At this time, the main hall of Shaohuayuan, where the wife of Yuejianghou lived, was brightly lit in Jinxiu Hall in the residence of Yuejianghou in Dazhao Kingdom. There were several charcoal basins in the corner of the hall, and the room was warm as spring.

But no matter how bright and warm the hall was, it could not dispel the deep chill in Mu Qingyin's heart at this moment.

She knelt on the ground, lowered her head and used her greatest willpower to control herself from looking up.

She was afraid that if she looked up, she would lose control of her emotions and throw herself into her mother's arms and hug her and cry bitterly. Then she would reveal the truth in advance regardless of everything and tell her the grievances of her two lives.

Since she knew that she had returned to the age of twelve overnight, and the night before she was about to be sent to the family temple, Mu Qingyin drove out all the servants in the room and hid alone, laughing and crying.

She laughed at herself for being so lucky to be able to come back before everything was irreversible; she also cried that if she told the truth rashly, no one would believe her, and would only suspect that she was crazy and talking nonsense to avoid going to the ancestral temple.

She couldn't explain to anyone that she knew everything because she lived again and experienced two lives.

She knew very well that no one would believe her.

In fact, she was afraid that according to her father, Yuejiang Hou Muheng's prejudice and disgust towards her, he would not let her have the opportunity to go to the ancestral temple again, and would directly let this rebellious girl "die of illness".

Mu Qingyin, who had experienced a lifetime, knew that her father was completely cruel to her.

Big tears rolled down, and she didn't need to look up to know that except for her own performance, everything at this time was exactly the same as in the previous life.

Sitting or standing around her were all the masters of Yuejiang Marquis's mansion - her father, Yuejiang Marquis Mu Heng, who favored his concubine over his wife; Yuejiang Marquis's wife Kuang Guya, who was nominally her legal mother but was actually her biological mother; her biological sister, Yuejiang Marquis's eldest legitimate daughter Mu Jingyan;

The one who swapped identities with her and was born less than half an incense stick of time apart. He was supposed to be her half-brother without the right of inheritance, but now became her legal brother.

And her nominal biological mother - the concubine Song Yimei.

At this time, everyone looked at Mu Qingyin with more or less contempt on their faces. Even her "biological mother" Song Yimei was no exception, and her face showed her disgust for her without any concealment.

Song Yimei quickly glanced at Yuejiang Marquis's wife Kuang Guya, who was sitting next to Yuejiang Marquis Mu Heng, and was noble and elegant. Then she looked at Mu Qingyin, who was kneeling on the ground and low in the dust, and was completely different from her.

She lowered her head with a look of deep sorrow on her face, and gently pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief to hide the smugness in her eyes; at the same time, she secretly shouted in her heart that it was not enough - yes, it was not enough.

What she did now was far from enough.

She waited, until the day when she could reveal the "truth", watching the woman's desperate collapse with the handkerchief covering her eyes, the smugness in Song Yimei's eyes bloomed more and more wantonly and unbridled.

However, she quickly suppressed her pride and put on the weak and charming look she usually showed in front of others. She frowned and looked at Mu Qingyin: "Qingyin, don't you admit your mistake?"

She said in an extremely disappointed and sad tone: "The facts are in front of us. This time, you ordered someone to tamper with the horse your eldest sister was going to use when she went out, and almost killed your eldest sister. If it wasn't for the prince of Anguo who happened to pass by, your eldest sister..."

Thinking that Mu Jingyan had a blessing in disguise and caught the eye of the prince of Anguo, who had extraordinary talent and unlimited future since childhood, Song Yimei's fingertips holding the handkerchief turned pale.

She made a note of it in her heart, then sobbed and said with regret: "Qingyin, it's all my fault for not teaching you well since you were young. I never thought you would be so cruel. After all, she is your elder sister, and you are blood relatives."

She wiped her tears while speaking: "In the past, you always compared yourself with your elder sister, slandered and insulted her in private, and even blamed her and me when you accidentally fell into the water. I always thought that you were young and ignorant, and just jealous. I always thought that you were not bad by nature, and you would repent and change those things when you grew up and became sensible.

But I didn't expect that you not only didn't change when you grew up, but also woke up in time. "I didn't realize my mistakes, but I made it worse."

Covering her face with a handkerchief, Song Yimei cried so hard that she stepped forward and knelt down in front of Yuejiang Marquis Muheng and Yuejiang Marquis's wife Kuang Guya, choking with shame and saying, "Marquis, the wife blames me for not being able to teach the child."

"Mei'er, how can you blame yourself? Don't blame yourself anymore. I know you are a good person. You have tried your best to teach her. But this evil girl is just like this. How can a person who is mean, insidious and vicious by nature be taught well with ordinary means?"

Seeing Song Yimei so sad, Yuejiang Marquis Muheng suddenly felt distressed.

He personally stood up and helped her up. He glared at the unruly Mu Qingyin without any emotion, and said softly to Song Yimei: "Don't feel sorry for her. Send this evil girl to the family temple and let her reflect on herself for a few years. This is also for her future."

"Hou Ye——"

Song Yimei stood up and pulled Mu Heng to cry even more sadly and touchingly.

She cried like a pear blossom in the rain, which made people feel pity. She looked at Mu Heng with trust and said softly: "I know in my heart that Hou Ye is so cruel because he is doing good for her. I will listen to Hou Ye and let him make the decision."

"Mei'er, I'm not wrong. You are sensible."

Seeing that Song Yimei has been trusting him for more than ten years, even his only daughter has to step back. Even Mu Heng, who thinks he is hard-hearted, feels a little moved.

He looked at Song Yimei tenderly, and his eyes met hers, and their gazes were entangled and could not be separated.

Chapter 2 Contempt

Seeing the two of them acting like this again, regardless of the occasion, and not caring about the presence of their children, the face of the wife of Yuejiang Marquis, Kuang Guya, suddenly showed embarrassment and extremely disgusted expression.

She glanced at the two of them and said in a light tone: "Since the Marquis has made up his mind, why not choose a day? Let's arrange to send the people to Pukai Temple today."

Pukai Temple is the ancestral temple of Yuejiang Marquis Mansion. At first, it was just a place for Yuejiang Marquis Mansion to imprison female relatives who made mistakes.

However, as its reputation for transforming people spread accidentally, it became more and more famous in the capital, and other families had no ancestral temples, and female relatives who made mistakes were also sent here.

Gradually, Pukai Temple became the most popular means of privately punishing people in the capital. The noble ladies of the noble families were afraid and felt cold. They loved and hated it, and they were reluctant to mention it easily.

After saying that, Kuang Guya, the wife of Yuejiang Marquis, stood up, sighed silently in her heart, and did not look at Mu Qingyin who had already been sentenced.

For her, even though she knew that Mu Qingyin was pitiful and was sent to the family temple for punishment, it was a bit too severe. But after all, she was just a concubine, even if the rumors about her vicious mind were a bit exaggerated.

But thinking that she had such a mother who was used to being pretentious, and was good at using various means and looking for various opportunities to snatch the favor of Yuejiang Marquis, and was afraid that the world would not be in chaos.

For her, Kuang Guya felt that she hated her without any connection. Not only did she not cause trouble for her in these years, but she even privately asked people to take care of her a little, which was already good.

More importantly, even if she had the ability, she would not intervene more, so as not to be taken advantage of by Song Yimei and Mu Heng and entangled. Thinking of what Mu Heng and Song Yimei had done in these years, Kuang Guya couldn't help but feel annoyed.

After seeing the wife of Yuejiang Marquis leave, Mu Qingyin was sensible and did not make a fuss. Instead, she quietly accepted the reality of going to the ancestral temple, which was unusual. The other masters of Yuejiang Marquis's mansion did not stay for long and left one after another.

Song Yimei was no exception and followed Yuejiang Marquis's steps.

As Mu Qingyin's "birth mother", Song Yimei was even like everyone else, not even interested in looking at Mu Qingyin more or saying more superficial and caring words to her.

As for Mu Qingyin's unusual silence, she was punished to go to the ancestral temple without even a piece of luggage. Not only other people in Yuejiang Marquis's mansion, but even Mu Qingyin's "birth mother" Song Yimei ignored it.

Suddenly, the two sturdy women who were ordered to send Mu Qingyin to the ancestral temple looked at Mu Qingyin with even more contempt.

Even though Mu Qingyin had been very quiet and cooperative in following the two men, she was still roughly dragged up by them and pushed all the way to a carriage parked outside the door that was simply decorated and obviously only used by the stewards and servants of the Prince of Yue's Mansion.

Mu Qingyin got on the carriage expressionlessly, keeping a numb face. Facing the two women who looked even more fierce and completely unfriendly, she remained silent and didn't say a word.

"Hmph, you finally know what's good for you."

Seeing Mu Qingyin being so "knowledgeable", one of the two women who got on the same carriage with her and was responsible for watching her couldn't help but snorted contemptuously and muttered.

"We haven't left the mansion yet, don't make trouble."

The other woman, who was obviously much smarter, was a little surprised to see that Mu Qingyin kept her lips pursed and didn't say anything even after hearing such a sentence. But she still pulled the woman who spoke and gave her a warning look.

"Haha, we're already outside the mansion, are you still afraid that she will fly to the sky? She's going to the family temple, are you still treating her as the second daughter of the Hou Mansion who is honored with gold and jade?"

The old woman who spoke before said with disdain. However, despite saying so, she still shut up obediently in the principle of less trouble than more trouble.

Mu Qingyin seemed to be deaf to the words of the two old women.

It was not until she felt the bumps of the carriage that she came back to her senses in a daze and began to think about what to do next---

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 3 My fate is in my own hands

Just thinking about it, Mu Qingyin unexpectedly thought of what she had just heard again, that Yuejiang Hou Mu Heng said that she was "mean, sinister and vicious by nature".

Thinking that she had suffered enough in her previous life because of this sentence, Mu Qingyin sat with her knees hugged and curled up, burying her head deeply in her knees. Finally, she could no longer control her tears and soaked her dress. She trembled and cried uncontrollably.

She cried miserably and was heartbroken. The two women in the carriage with her didn't take it seriously, and no one was willing to waste their lips and tongues to persuade her.

What's more, the two of them didn't even take Mu Qingyin's sadness in their eyes. They just searched around and took out all the snacks and pastries in the carriage and shared them.

Then, they ate melon seeds, cakes and tea, watching Mu Qingyin cry as if they were watching a joke, and their eyes were full of gloating.

Although the girl in front of them was a rich lady. But she was expelled to the family temple before she got married, and it was a rich lady from the family temple that was famous for its strictness in the capital. In fact, from the moment she was expelled, she was already abandoned by the Yuejiang Marquis's Mansion.

After all, which wealthy family would be willing to marry a woman who had entered the family temple before she got married as a daughter-in-law in the future?

A rich lady who couldn't enter a wealthy family? Haha, at most she was a phoenix with plucked feathers. As the saying goes, a phoenix with plucked feathers is worse than a chicken, right?

So the two of them were completely relaxed and stress-free about watching Mu Qingyin's joke so openly.

Anyway, the Yuejiang Marquis's Mansion was still far away from the Pukai Temple. Based on their experience, the carriage would take at least seven or eight hours to reach the foot of the mountain.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, they faced an even more rugged and difficult mountain road. They had to change to a mule cart and walk for another three or four hours.

The journey was long, how could they spare the extra energy to comfort an abandoned child? If they really had the time, they might as well conserve their energy and send the person to the current abbot of Pukai Temple without any mistakes.

From the hair to the soles of the feet, every inch of their contempt for Mu Qingyin was clearly displayed. The two women even started chatting while Mu Qingyin was crying, and occasionally made all kinds of undisguised sneers.

Mu Qingyin, who had experienced a lifetime and had seen through the warmth and coldness of the world, did not care about the two people.

She cried to herself, venting all the resentment and injustice in her heart. When she finally vented enough, she clenched her hands and buried her head and face between her knees. No one could see her face, but she showed a resolute look.

My fate is in my own hands.

From now on, even if he is my biological father, what does it matter? In the past life, I have already returned all the grace of birth to him. From now on, their grievances will be gone. In this life, I will just think of myself as a person with a mother but no father.

After crying this time, she will never be controlled by his grace of birth again in this life.

After thinking it through, Mu Qingyin finally raised her head, with a pair of red and swollen eyes that began to become bright and clear, and took a clean cup for herself and poured tea.

"Put it down."

Seeing Mu Qingyin pouring the tea on the table by herself, her green-clothed old woman who had previously spoken in front of the door of Yuejiang Houfu scolded her harshly.

"Who are you? Even the dogs in Yuejianghou Mansion are worth a hundred times more than you. You dare to talk to me like that?"

First, she drank the tea in one gulp, then put the empty cup heavily on the table. Mu Qingyin raised her eyebrows and looked at the old woman in green with full momentum, with a dangerous cold light flashing in her eyes.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 4 Shock

How could Mu Qingyin forget, how dare she forget, that it was this old woman who insulted her first in her previous life.

Not only did she not wait to take the initiative on the way to the ancestral temple, she took away all the remaining jewelry she was wearing.

After arriving at the ancestral temple, she exaggerated the attitude of the masters in the mansion towards her several times to the host.

So that the host of the ancestral temple, who was in a mess and had nothing, made a wrong judgment. He did not follow the usual practice of "disciplining" a young woman who was only sent here temporarily and had a great chance to leave.

Instead, he disciplined her like a concubine who had made a mistake and was sent here and would most likely never leave, and "disciplined" her to death, leaving no room for mercy.

So that she suffered a lot, and her body was completely ruined. By the time Yuejianghou Mansion sent someone to pick her up three years later and tried to win her over by marrying her off to a lower-class mansion, it was too late.

When she returned to the palace, she was sick and the imperial physician diagnosed that she would not live long and would not be able to have children in her lifetime because of her weak body.

At this point, she finally became the abandoned child of Yuejianghou Mansion and was sent to Yinwang Mansion. Although the two old women who escorted her to the ancestral temple and the temple's host did not escape punishment afterwards. But so what? Her life was still completely ruined.

Thinking of how she would never have her own children in her last life because of these two people, Mu Qingyin gritted her teeth.

In this life, she would never allow herself to step into the ancestral temple again, repeating the nightmare of the past three years and destroying the foundation of her body again.

She would find a way to leave here, even if the price was to temporarily abandon her identity as the second lady of Yuejianghou Mansion. Before that, she needs to calm down the two old hags in front of her and not allow them to climb on top of her head and pee and shit again.

Her expression became even colder, and she looked down at the two maids and said coldly: "I have heard of other people's servants bullying their masters in the past, but I didn't expect that I would have the honor to see it with my own eyes today. Good, really good. Hehe-——"

She sneered at the two people with the same tone of sneering as before, and then said with a smile: "You dare to treat me like this, do you really think that I will never be able to turn over after I go to the family temple? Hehe, even if I can't turn over, will I be expelled from the clan and no longer be the second lady of Yuejiang Marquis Mansion, and no longer be my father's biological daughter? Although I am just a 'bastard', what do you think my father would think if he knew one day that his biological daughter was bullied by two servants and was scolded by the servants? Would he feel very proud?"

A few more sneers, thinking that she was born from the noble status of a legitimate daughter to the status of a bastard that everyone looked down on.

Thinking of my own mother, she was clearly a victim, but was slandered as doing it on purpose and was reprimanded by the new emperor.

In the end, my mother was a victim, and she was turned from a wife to a concubine. Even if she didn't hesitate to hit her head against the wall and cry out for injustice, it still couldn't change the decline of the entire Kuang family, and the reputation of the married woman was implicated. The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Mu Qingyin said in a very heavy tone: "Being abused by you, not to mention that my father will feel ashamed when he hears about it in the future, even I am very discouraged now.

Since I have fallen to this point, what's the point of living? I might as well end my life directly, so as not to be abused by you lowly things climbing on my head.

Anyway, I have enjoyed enough wealth and glory in this life, and I have lived enough. It is worth it even if I die.

I just don't know if you, who didn't complete the task and forced the master to death, and the whole family behind you have lived enough? Do you have the ability to withstand the anger from my father and mother?"

There was a resolute look in her eyes, and people didn't dare to question whether she was joking for a while. The two women who were originally confident were immediately stunned.

"."

"."

The two looked at each other and saw a strong fear in each other's eyes.

Chapter 5: Knocking

"Second Miss, you, you have misunderstood. This, this is not because the tea is of poor quality and is not worthy of your precious mouth, so, that's why I was in a hurry just now, I accidentally raised my voice a little louder?"

After a short silence, the green-clothed woman rubbed her hands, smiled awkwardly and explained to Mu Qingyin stutteringly.

Seeing that Mu Qingyin obviously didn't believe it, her mouth twitched, and she endured the humiliation and stretched out her hand to hit her face twice: "I told you to make trouble with your mouth and not speak."

"Second Miss, you really misunderstood the two of us."

Another woman in blue clothes next to her saw that the green-clothed woman's attitude could not move Mu Qingyin. She thought at that time that if Mu Qingyin, who had quietly left the gate of Yuejianghou Mansion without making any trouble, really made a fuss halfway because of the attitudes of the two of them, and even wanted to kill herself.

After that, if the news spreads back, I'm afraid that the two of them will definitely be in trouble. At that time, it's not a big deal that their reputation in the Hou Mansion, which they have maintained for many years, will be ruined.

I'm afraid that if the masters are cruel and prove their crimes, they will sell their whole family. Thinking of this terrible consequence, the blue-clothed woman shuddered and glanced at the green-clothed woman with some resentment.

It's all her fault. If she hadn't been impatient to jump out and provoke again and again before, how could this happen today? But it's too late to say this now. I know this person very well. If something happens to her, it's not easy for me to completely get rid of it.

Besides, they have done so many things together to take advantage of the concubines who were sent to the family temple. Isn't it too easy to do this? I accidentally forgot that those concubines are actually very different from the proper daughters of the Hou Mansion?

What people say is true. No matter how many mistakes she makes, no matter how much she is disliked by the masters of the Hou Mansion, it cannot change that she is still the legitimate second lady of the Hou Mansion, the blood of the Hou Lord, and a precious daughter.

Even if such a person is a phoenix with feathers plucked, it is not the turn of them, the servants of the Hou Mansion, to abuse her. Otherwise, if she turns over one day, will she not even have the ability to deal with them? So they really got their feet wet by accident this time.

It is said that this second lady is a ruthless person. She can even harm the eldest lady born by marriage, and what she said today.

This is a person who is not only ruthless to others, but also to herself. How can she be so blinded by lard that she thinks such a little ancestor can be laughed at and treated with care?

The more she thought about it, the more she regretted it. The blue-clothed woman secretly discussed how to make up for it, and she also laughed awkwardly. She considered and continued to flatter Mu Qingyin: "Second Miss, our two families have been old servants of Yuejiang Marquis' Mansion for many years. The hearts of the Marquis' Mansion and the masters are obvious to all."

After all, she felt that what she said was a bit dry. She winked at the green-clothed woman and smiled more flatteringly at Mu Qingyin who was still calm: "Don't worry, we will definitely not be as careless as before on the way to the ancestral temple. We will definitely do our best to serve you."

As she said this, she didn't care that the snacks and snacks in the car had been divided by the two of them before, and quickly gathered them together and pushed them in the direction of Mu Qingyin: "Here, all for you."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 6 Fear

The old woman in green was a man who knew what was happening. After seeing the old woman in blue, she quickly reacted.

She hurriedly pushed all the cakes and snacks onto the table in front of Mu Qingyin. She pushed and nodded in a flattering manner: "Yes, yes, we will definitely serve you well on the way. These are for you."

"Aren't these originally prepared for me by the mansion for use on the road? What? You took what should have been mine, and you enjoyed it. It's unfair to bring back the rest, and it's your credit?"

Seeing the change in their attitudes, Mu Qingyin curled her lips in disdain.

Sure enough, the more frustrated a person is, the more he should not lose his mind or be weak. Otherwise, he will be trampled into a deeper quagmire and suffer more than he should have.

In her previous life, if she could be as calm as she is now, or if she could be more ruthless and resolute to herself, as long as she had any of these, she would never have suffered so much from the people who flattered her and bullied her, until her body was completely damaged.

But what's the point of thinking about it now? To grow up, people need to suffer a little, and learn from their mistakes.

If she hadn't suffered in her previous life, even if she had to do it again, she might not have imagined that the evil of human nature in this world would make people feel like they were in hell?

These thoughts flashed through her mind, and Mu Qingyin looked straight at the two women in front of her and chuckled: "Are you treating me like a beggar on the street?

Today I really broadened my horizons, and I saw things that I didn't see before. Otherwise, I really didn't know that the rules of the old servants in our Yuejiang Marquis Mansion in front of the master are like you, saying "I, I, I" all the time?"

As she spoke, she poured herself another cup of tea and drank it.

There was no way, she had lost a lot of water after crying before, and she had to replenish it. So she could dislike those cakes in front of the two of them, but she couldn't dislike this tea that was actually far from the word "good".

After drinking the water, she smiled to herself, "This tea is indeed inferior to the one in the mansion, but a real man can bend and stretch, so why can't a little girl like me? Even if my father and mother are angry with me, can they be angry for a lifetime, and really watch me die in the family temple to discredit the mansion?

Haha, what does it matter if I suffer a little now? When they are no longer angry with me in the future, they may not be sorry that I have suffered, and I have to be trampled by old slaves like you in the mansion.

After all, I was trampled by old slaves in my own mansion. It is not only embarrassing for my father and mother to say it out, but also for me, right? But I am like this, and I really don't care about face. I know that if I am wronged, I have to cry and shout it out. After all, only crying children get milk, right?"

Mu Qingyin turned the cup in her hand and looked at the two women, and the smile on her face became brighter and brighter. How could she have the fear, anxiety, sadness and grief that she should have after being hated by the masters of Yuejiang Marquis's Mansion? But the more abnormal she was, the more the two maids were unsure and the more wary they were.

After another round of eye contact, the two finally knelt down in front of Mu Qingyin: "Second Miss is right. No matter how wrong you are, it was all our fault before.

But other servants dare not do more, and they don't have the ability to do more, but we can still do our best to make Second Miss eat and use more comfortably during this journey.

When we pass by the snack shop later, we will go down and buy some cakes and snacks for Second Miss as an apology. I only hope that Second Miss will not bear grudges against us."

Chapter 7 Mustard Seed Space 1

"Okay, that's it. I'm not narrow-minded. If you can admit your mistakes and correct them, I won't hold on to you. To be honest, if I really take you so seriously, I will also lose face as the second lady of Yuejianghou Mansion."

Knowing that it's better to be too much than too little, Mu Qingyin didn't have the idea of forcing the two old women. After all, forcing them would not benefit her in the end.

Even rabbits bite when they are angry. If she really pushes them, who knows if these two old women will just go all out and treat her like they did in her previous life, tying her up, starving her all the way, and not letting her drink a drop of water.

In this way, as long as they go back and confess their crimes, saying that they were forced to do so, even if they have to suffer a little and be punished, the guilt is not serious, and they can be excused in advance. It won't be so easy for her to cause trouble for them again in the future.

After all, they also have their own duties. If she punishes them again at that time, and fights with them when her father and mother do not love her, it will not only damage her reputation, but also lower her status. It will be the so-called hurting the enemy a thousand times and hurting herself eight hundred times.

So, let's leave it at that for now.

Mu Qingyin said, "I am a little sleepy after all this trouble. I'd better take a nap first."

As she said that, she covered her mouth and yawned. Seeing this, the two maids quickly got up, one of them diligently helped her make the bed with the quilt, and the other helped her take off her hairpins, rings, jewelry and hair.

In the end, she specially wrapped her hairpins, rings and jewelry with a handkerchief and carefully placed them under her pillow.

Mu Qingyin nodded with satisfaction, and fell asleep as soon as her head touched the pillow.

You can't blame her for being so sleepy. Anyone who tossed and turned all night and didn't sleep much and was just thinking about random things, and made a fuss the next day, would be sleepy.

After waking up, Mu Qingyin washed her face and rinsed her mouth with the help of the two maids. She simply ate a few snacks and tea brought by the two women to fill her stomach, and then lay down again, seemingly sleeping again.

But this time her consciousness entered a mustard seed space.

Mu Qingyin always felt that she could start over again, and it was probably related to the mustard seed space that she accidentally opened when she was about to die in her previous life.

She couldn't tell how she got this mustard seed space. It seemed that it suddenly appeared so abruptly.

Because the space appeared too late, and it appeared when she was at the end of her road in her previous life. So she didn't have any precious things to put in it in her previous life, only a few clothes for daily wear. Compared with her current clothes, those clothes are much worse in terms of fabric and workmanship.

But last night, after she was reborn, she drove out all the maids in the house, acted as a "thief" all night and "stole" everything, which was quite a harvest.

Haha, anyway, she didn't "steal" those things. According to her last life, when she returned to Yuejianghou Mansion three years later, those things would disappear without a trace.

I don't know whether it benefited the maids and nannies around her who were Song Yimei's minions and ears, or Song Yimei, or both of them? In this case, it would be better for her to benefit herself than for those people.

As for this time, when the news of her "fat death" was passed back, those people who usually served her in her house would be so angry that they couldn't explain the disappearance of the property, and she would not be able to do anything about it.

Anyway, none of those people were loyal to her. Not only did they betray their master, but they were also instructed by others to do all kinds of tricks in private to put her in this situation.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 8 Mustard Seed Space 2

Mu Qingyin smiled coldly and self-deprecatingly.

When she didn't know the truth, she was confused. Because from childhood to adulthood, she had never been jealous of her elder sister, let alone did anything to frame her.

On the contrary, when she was still young, she couldn't help but have a deep admiration for her elder sister, and even her mother, the wife of Yuejiang Hou.

She liked them, and she couldn't help but feel happy when she saw them.

Even though everyone around her kept telling her how hateful those two were, how disgusting and hypocritical they were, she still couldn't help but like them from the bottom of her heart and wanted to get close to them.

But at that time, she couldn't figure out why things turned out like that in the end? She clearly didn't do anything bad to her elder sister, so why did everyone say that she was "jealous" of her elder sister since she was a child, and wanted to ruin her reputation by all means, use her elder sister as a stepping stone, and even murder her life? It was not until the truth came out that she suddenly realized it, but it was too late. Mu Qingyin sighed deeply in her heart and repeatedly comforted herself in her heart: Don't think about it, don't think about it anymore. Since she knew the truth early in this life.

Then as long as the truth is revealed in advance, and mother Kuang Guya and grandparents know the truth in advance, then those tragedies will not happen again.

Thinking of the key figure in the child-swap case in the previous life, mother Kuang Guya's wet nurse Weng Mama's biological daughter, and also the mother's once extremely trusted personal maid Chen Lianniang.

Chen Lianniang betrayed her mother, but Mama Weng did not. In the previous life, she heard that it was not until the truth was revealed that Mama Weng also knew the truth, and she could not accept it at the time and apologized with her death.

So there is no problem in letting Mama Weng stay with her mother for the time being.

The problem is that they did such a big thing so flawlessly that they even hid it from the people who served close to her mother.

If it wasn't the time for them to reveal the truth, and they waited for them to say it voluntarily when they thought the time was right. Then how could she make her mother, grandparents and grandparents believe her?

She thought so hard but couldn't come up with an effective solution. Mu Qingyin could only put it aside for the time being and not think about it anymore.

She changed her mind and focused on the present. How could she successfully fake her death and escape under the close watch of the two maids and the guards outside?

Even though there were many people guarding her at the moment, she was guarded so tightly that she had no chance to leave.

She still had a chance. Her only chance would be when she arrived at the foot of the mountain of the ancestral temple, and after the carriage was changed to a mule cart and entered the mountain, the mule cart overturned because of the rugged mountain road, and she almost fell off the cliff and lost her life.

After wandering around in the mustard seed space, Mu Qingyin took a look at the piles of various valuables she had accumulated over the past decade. She was not interested in going forward to count them. Instead, she found an empty space and sat down with her knees hugged, and began to think - "I wonder if this mustard seed space can let my body in? If it can, the risk can be reduced to a minimum, and I don't have to gamble with my life."

After thinking for a long time, she thought that she had a great possibility of being unable to avoid the need to take risks and fall off the cliff. Mu Qingyin couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Shaking her head, she finally whispered to herself: "Forget it, how can I get out without a price? Isn't it just a life at most?"

She gritted her teeth: "Rather than end up like that and implicate my mother and my grandparents' family, I would rather die like this."

Chapter 9 Changes in Space

Mu Qingyin couldn't help but think with self-mockery that if she hadn't been there in her previous life, Song Yimei's niece Song Jiaojiao wouldn't have had the opportunity to become her maid and enter the Yin Wang Mansion.

She wouldn't have been disliked by Yin Wang from the beginning, to the point where he would dislike touching her, and would directly pull Song Jiaojiao to replace her every time he came to her yard.

As a result, Song Jiaojiao had the opportunity to win over Yin Wang step by step, and was directly made a concubine when Yin Wang ascended the throne.

And she wouldn't have been accused of poisoning Yin Wang's concubine out of jealousy and harming Yin Wang's heirs long before Yin Wang ascended the throne.

In the end, her mother and the Kuang family, who knew the truth about the child swap, paid a huge price to "redeem" her, and she was arranged to live in anonymity.

Without her weakness, her mother and her grandparents would no longer be so easily controlled by Yin Wang, and end up with a fate of being abandoned after the rabbit died. And all the benefits went to Yuejiang Hou, Song Yimei and her own son.

So, even if she died accidentally, it would be better than being used by others and having to become a stepping stone for others, right?

After making up her mind again and carefully recalling the details of the mule cart overturning in her previous life, and having a rough idea of how she should behave at that time, Mu Qingyin had the leisure to carefully check her mustard seed space to see if there was any difference from the space in her previous life.

After this careful inspection, Mu Qingyin really found the difference.

In her previous life, her mustard seed space was a small square room with nothing in it.

But in this life, there was still nothing in this room except the property she collected, but it seemed to be a little bigger, and there was a rather hidden door.

Standing in front of the door, Mu Qingyin hesitated for a while before gently pulling it open - is this a medicine shop?

Before pulling open the door, Mu Qingyin imagined what was outside the door. She thought that maybe she would see a small courtyard full of flowers and plants, or another empty house?

But she never expected that what she saw would be a house similar to a medicine shop? Looking at the house in front of her, which was different from the medicine shop outside, except that there was no counter, but there was a desk and an armchair in the middle of the house, and the surroundings were filled with medicine cabinets, Mu Qingyin couldn't help but be slightly startled--she didn't understand pharmacology.

If you don't understand, you can learn.

Another voice in her heart was eager to try, full of excitement.

Mu Qingyin couldn't help but chuckle, walked forward and randomly picked a medicine drawer to open it. But this time, she couldn't help but be startled again--can't open it?

Mu Qingyin: "."

She hesitated for a moment, and then her movements were faster than her thoughts and she had reached out to other medicine drawers around. After trying dozens of medicine drawers in a row, Mu Qingyin was frustrated to find that she couldn't open five or six of the medicine drawers by herself.

Moreover, after trying, she found that there was a difference between the medicine drawers that could be opened and those that could not be opened. The medicine drawers that could be opened had a very weak fluorescence on the surface. Although it was not obvious, it could still be distinguished if carefully distinguished.

Now that she had a way to distinguish, Mu Qingyin would naturally not foolishly open the medicine cabinets one by one.

She looked carefully and found that most of the medicine drawers with weak fluorescence were scattered. Overall, the number was not as many as she had thought before.

The total number of medicine drawers with weak fluorescence was at most one-tenth or one-twelve.

Chapter 10 Medicine Heart Sutra

Pursing her lips slightly, Mu Qingyin turned her attention back to the desk in the room.

Soon, the thick stack of books on the desk with covers written on them, such as "Medicine Heart Sutra", "Pharmacopoeia", "Medicine Processing and Extraction", "Alchemy Classics", etc., made her eyes light up suddenly.

But——"Isn't this too much? Since they can't be opened, why are they placed there to make people jealous?"

The excitement came quickly and went away even faster. When she flipped through the books one by one, she found that she could only open the first page of "Medicine Heart Sutra" among all the books on the table.

Mu Qingyin stared at the page of "Medicine Heart Sutra". She knew everything she saw, but she didn't understand its meaning at all. When she couldn't understand the meaning of the words in it, she felt frustrated.

After staring at the words on the only page of the Medicine Gate Heart Sutra that she could open for a long time, Mu Qingyin sighed and turned her eyes back to the medicine cabinet.

She stood up and walked to the medicine cabinet. She carefully looked at the names of the medicines on the medicine drawers, especially the ones that flashed with weak fluorescence and could be opened by herself.

"Double Heart Leaf, Fantasy Spirit Grass, Flame Grass, Seven Star Flower, Dragon and Tiger Gallbladder, Black Frost Flower, Stone Taurus Shell, Tuoyue Branch"

The more she thought about it, the more confused Mu Qingyin became. What's going on? Are these really all medicinal herbs? Why do they sound so strange to her? She doesn't recognize any of them? After all, as the second lady of Yuejiang Houfu, although she doesn't understand pharmacology, she has seen and heard of many precious medicinal materials since she was a child.

But she didn't see any of the medicinal materials she was familiar with on this medicine cabinet, and the names of these medicines were particularly strange, all of which she had never heard of.

Thinking of the volume of the Medicine Gate Heart Sutra that she couldn't read, Mu Qingyin wondered, "Are these all medicinal materials from another world? Even these medical books?"

Mu Qingyin couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Buddhism says that the sun and the moon shine on the four worlds, covering the six desire heavens and the first meditation heaven, which is a "small world". A thousand small worlds cover the first and second meditation heavens, which is a "small thousand world". A thousand small thousand worlds cover the first and third meditation heavens, which is a "middle thousand world". A thousand middle thousand worlds cover the fourth meditation heaven, which is a "big thousand world". A big thousand world has three kinds of "thousand worlds", small, medium and large, so it is called the three thousand big thousand worlds.

After experiencing rebirth, Mu Qingyin believes in the three thousand big worlds.

Perhaps her mustard seed space also came from another world, and was obtained by her fate?

She looked at the medicine cabinets around her and the desk in the middle of the room, and suddenly thought, if these are really from other worlds, then why are the words on them the words of their world, and she knows them all? For a moment, Mu Qingyin's thoughts were full of thoughts. Thinking of the saying "Read a book a hundred times and its meaning will become clear", she couldn't help but wonder, what if she read the "Heart Sutra of Medicine Gate" that she couldn't understand a hundred times? Would she be able to understand it? She did it as she thought. She sat down in front of the desk and really calmed down and patiently read the "Heart Sutra of Medicine Gate" over and over again. She was so focused that she was gradually immersed in it--Mu Qingyin was awakened by the unusual movement outside.

Her consciousness instantly left the mustard seed space, and she opened her eyes to see two women outside trying to wake her up. She squinted her eyes, looked at the two people with a bit of sternness, and didn't say a word.
