“It’s time for us to go to sleep. In the morning, we’ll go ashore, and once we’re there, I’ll find you a little brother, okay? With a little brother to grow up with, Ayi will always have someone to protect him!”
Xie Zhinuan spoke softly, reddening, then took out some pure spiritual spring water, feeding Xie Yi sip by sip, “Ayi, be good, take small sips. Don’t choke yourself!”
Xie Yi was puzzled. The treasure was something his mother acquired later, so why did she have it now?
Some things didn’t quite match up, but his mother was still his mother, the one who loved him most.
Xie Zhinuan was very relieved by Xie Yi’s obedience.
She had been somewhat worried that Xie Yi might be troublesome and difficult to manage, but his obedience was surprising, filling her with joy.
After feeding him the spiritual spring water, Xie Zhinuan also sang a little tune to lull him to sleep, gently patting his bottom with her hand.
“Mom!” Xie Yi called out softly.
Xie Zhinuan hummed in response, “Go to sleep now, Mom’s going to sleep too!”
Soon, soft snores could be heard in the room, followed by a few heavier snores, which seemed to grow louder and louder.
Xie Yi opened his eyes.
His mother by his side was sleeping soundly, as were the three animals.
He still didn’t understand whether those past experiences were real or just a dream. All he knew was that it was all too bizarre. He had lived until sixteen, died in an assassination, and after being reborn, he saw the ugly true faces of those so-called relatives. And now, he had returned to his mother’s side.
But some things were different.
In his previous life, there were no such people as Lian Huai and the mute uncle around his mother, but now these two were present.

In his previous life, his mother rarely read or wrote, but now she was extremely diligent in her studies. Xie Yi couldn’t figure it out and decided not to think about it. He closed his eyes feeling warm and cozy in his stomach and very comfortable all over, a smile on his lips as he fell into a deep sleep.Early the next day, Xie Zhinuan got up to cook porridge in the kitchen, followed by stewed egg custard, and made two cold dishes and pork cakes. The mute servant came over to help.
“Good morning, Uncle Mute!”
The mute servant smiled and assisted Xie Zhinuan.
Perhaps due to their same lineage, the two had an extraordinary understanding of each other. Whatever Xie Zhinuan needed, the mute servant could provide accurately.
Having gotten used to being mute, the mute servant spoke very little.
“Uncle Mute, does your throat still hurt?” Xie Zhinuan asked.
The mute servant shook his head.
His throat had long stopped hurting. In the past few days, he felt his Inner Strength had progressed two levels. If he was at the lowest level before, now he would be considered at the top. Generally speaking, there were very few people who could match him in a contest of Inner Strength.
But to say such a thing would seem too arrogant. One must always remember that there is always someone better out there.
“I’m glad it doesn’t hurt anymore. Uncle Mute, you really scared me that day. I thought the medicine pill was poisoned!” Xie Zhinuan said softly.
The mute servant laughed and reached out to pat Xie Zhinuan’s head, “It’s okay, even if it had been poisoned, I wouldn’t blame you!”
Helping her to gather energy in her Dantian was something he did willingly, as was taking the medicine pill. If he had been poisoned to death, it would have been his fate.
In this lifetime, the first person to truly consider him important, to sincerely care for him, was Xie Zhinuan. As for the lord, the lord had merely taken him in by chance, which was fundamentally different from Xie Zhinuan’s concern.
He would not betray the lord, but he would also not follow the lord’s commands to harm Zhinuan, nor would he follow Zhinuan’s words to harm the lord.
He was willing to go through fire and water for them, sparing no effort.
To him, they were the only two people in the world, his faith and his guardians.
Xie Zhinuan smiled, “I will learn medicine, and then I’ll know if the medicine pills are poisoned!”
“Uncle Mute believes in you, you will be the best doctor in Dazhou!”
Xie Zhinuan nodded firmly.
How wonderful it was to be so trusted by an elder!
