Chapter 2 Rebirth

  "Miss, miss wake up...... Lao Tai Tai, miss woke up."

  The sound of surprise and delight echoed in her ears, seeming somewhat familiar. It made Ning Fengyi momentarily dazed, thinking she was still dreaming.

  "Let me see, am I really awake? Amitabha Buddha, Bodhisattva blesses, Bodhisattva blesses!"

  Another strange yet familiar voice came from afar. It had been over a year since Ning Fengyi last heard this voice: her wet nurse, Liao Mama, who had followed her into the Wang estate after marriage, was eventually driven out of the estate for "making mistakes", and soon after, news of her illness and death spread.

  Ning Xi closed her eyes again, but soon she shivered with a chill and suddenly opened them wide.

  "Great, the girl has finally woken up."

  A tearful face peered over, and to her surprise, it was the young Haitang. Ning Fengbi blinked once, twice, at this moment, she thought time and space had gone awry.

  Is there anything more absurd than this?

  Nineteen years ago, she crossed over when this girl was four years old, occupying the other's body, keeping to her own duties, hiding her golden fingers tightly, but also only living for nineteen more years.

  However, now she has reincarnated again in this body. Haitang's expression, Liao Mama's face, still vaguely resembles her appearance when she first crossed over. Could it be... that she will return to the starting point once more? Only this time, it's not crossing over, but reincarnation?

  In an instant, Ning Fengbi only wanted to burst out laughing: What on earth did this thieving heaven want to do? Was she destined to be trapped in this body, endlessly reincarnating?

  No... absolutely impossible! Since I've been reborn, don't even think about letting her live like that again, so timid and weak.

  Ning Feng was panting: This is really an ironic thing, before she died, she had been thinking about what she would do if she were reborn. But unexpectedly, heaven granted her wish and gave her a new life. So this time, if she abandoned those worries, could all the tragedies be avoided?

  "Miss, how are you? Please say something, don't scare me..."

  Lao Lao carefully asked beside her, after a long time, she heard Ning Fengyi ask faintly: "Where is my mother?"

  "Old Mrs. just had something on her side and called Yīng Gē to take the lady away, and she hasn't come back yet."

  Lao Lao explained, thought for a moment and continued: "Since the young lady is awake, I'll go tell Madame right away to hurry back. I'm sure Old Madame won't blame her." After finishing speaking, she was about to get up.

  But Ning Xi shook her head and said, "No need to, it's just a small matter, why bother Mother? Help me up and sit for a while, I'm fine, just feeling a bit dizzy."

  It's indeed back to square one, everything is just like when she first crossed over.

  She silently looked at her slender hands and feet, as well as the small dress that she would never forget, which was the attire of this body after crossing over. The visual impact at that time, even after so long, was still crystal clear.

  Ning Fengbi knew that the old lady had called Yu Shi over for a reason. In a few more days, Old Master's long-lost brother would be returning, right? At this time, everyone in the family regarded each other as a washed-up old man, and no one knew that he would achieve such great things in the future, let alone think that he would stir up a huge storm, almost bringing down the entire Earl's Manor.

  Everything seems unchanged except for myself, this reborn transmigrator.

  Ning Xi clenched her fists, her thin lips pursed tightly: she didn't care if fate was still following its predetermined course, but she would never again be the Ning family's Sixth Young Miss.

  She will no longer be foolish enough to be deceived by others, and she will handle things calmly, just to gain a reputation for being virtuous. She thinks that this way, she can have a smooth life forever.

  Most importantly, she would never again have feelings for that man, and even more so, would not marry into the Rui Wang Fu.

  Yes, it's like this, the goal of rebirth is extremely simple: live a carefree and happy life, vow not to marry into a wealthy family.

  Ning Xianbi thought: As long as I can achieve these two points, I should be able to live a wonderful and happy life, and won't repeat the mistakes of my past life.

  No mistake, in this life, she wants to put aside all worries and fight for a sunny and beautiful life.

  Yu Shi quickly returned, hearing that Ning Fengbi had woken up, and couldn't help but be overjoyed. She rushed in like the wind, happily saying: "Qing Hua, how are you? Are you hungry? Is your head still dizzy? The doctor said you're weak and need to take good care of yourself for a few days. Alright, I'll have someone bring over the bird's nest congee, and also, the medicine being decocted under the corridor is what the doctor instructed to be taken as soon as you wake up, quickly go check if it's done yet?"

  Ning Xianbi's nickname was Pinyin, it is said that when she was born, the peony in front of the house which had not bloomed for three years suddenly burst into bloom, this made Ning Sanye very happy, and without saying another word he gave his daughter the nickname Peony.

  As for the name, oh, at that time Old Master was still alive, Ning Fengbi was the eldest daughter of the third house, so it was not up to him to decide on the name, and Old Master had to make the decision.

  At this time, seeing Madam Yu being flustered and busy, Ning Fengbi felt a warmth in her heart and almost shed tears. She grabbed Madam Yu's arm and said: "Mother doesn't need to be busy, aren't there maids and servant girls? You sit by your daughter's side, and your daughter will have the mainstay."

  "Okay okay okay, I'll sit in front of my lovely medicine."

  Yu's family indeed leaned over, stroking Ning Fengbi's hair while crying: "My poor daughter, how did you suffer such a disaster for no reason? If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have let you go out and play with your sisters."

  Ning Fengbi was infected with a cold on the Mid-Autumn Festival night after playing with her siblings in the courtyard, and as a result, she became more and more seriously ill. Later, they finally invited a doctor who used a rather unusual medicine to save her life.

  However, she herself knew that the real Ning Fengbi was actually dead, and the one living now was her reborn self after crossing over.

  Feeling the sense of security in Yu's arms, outside the house was the soft footsteps of the maids and servant girls. After all, it was the Earl's residence, and even the servants were well-trained. The three houses had always been looked down upon, but at this moment, not a single cough was heard, and the order was almost the same as that in Old Lady's room.

  Ning Xi Bi yawned and raised her face to ask Yu Shi: "Mother, what did Grandmother call you over for? When has anything ever happened in this household that we three branches weren't asked about?"

  Yu's family couldn't help but be stunned, looking at Ning Xianbi for a long time before scolding: "Xiangyu, how can you talk like that? The ancestors have always been very good to the third house."

  After finishing speaking, the daughter lowered her eyes, seemingly a bit distressed. Her heart tightened involuntarily, fearing that she had said something too serious. Hurriedly, she added: "However, to tell the truth, this time it's really a great thing. Your grandfather's long-lost brother has been found."
