The spring of the eleventh year of Tai'an came very early, a few days ago Shen Shu looked at the branches of several big banyan trees behind the house were still bare, and got up early this morning, and occasionally looked up, but the top of his head was already a vibrant green. The branches sprouted, the green leaves spread out, and the sunlight poured through the gaps between the leaves into the courtyard, leaving dappled light and shadows, and a breeze blew and made a rustling sound.

Carefully calculated, she has been living in the Southern Dynasty for more than a month.

Shen Shu died in a fire in her last life, and the wind fueled the fire, which swept away in an instant, and she lost consciousness in the burning fire, and then woke up to become Shen Shu of the Southern Dynasty.

She learned from the maid who was waiting beside her that the original owner had accidentally fallen into the water and died so that she coincidentally occupied this body, but judging from some scattered memories she inherited from the original owner, it was clear that she jumped into the icy lake by herself that day, and every time she recalled that scene, she could feel the despair that the original owner emanated from the depths of her heart at that time.

Shen Shu tried to remember what had happened before that, only remembering a man's face and a bland sentence, "You are really different from Ah Yu." "I can't think of anything else. She thought she could find the reason from the man and the Ah Yu he said, but in the end she found that it was useless.

The man's surname is Xie Changning, he is his husband, and the Ah Yu in his mouth is Shen Yu, who is his original wife and the eldest sister of Shen Shu's mother. A year ago, Shen Yu died of a serious illness, and a year later, Shen Shu put on a wedding dress and sat in a sedan chair, and married Xie Changning as a stepfamily in the earth-shattering firecrackers and gongs, drums, and suona.

After living in the Xie family's mansion for a month, Xie Changning received an order from the imperial court to serve as the governor of Quanzhou under the jurisdiction of Liuzhou Mansion for a term of five years, so he brought Shen Shu and others to take up the post.

It is thousands of miles away from Jian'an to Liuzhou, starting from Jian'an all the way down the river, and then going straight to Liuzhou by land after arriving in Jingzhou.

However, on the eve of arriving in Jingzhou, Shen Shu accidentally fell into the water. It was a cold climate, coupled with the fatigue of running all the way, when the next people found and rescued her, she had fallen into a coma, and then she had a high fever.

After checking her pulse, the doctor admitted that if she couldn't wake up within three days, she would not be cured.

The casual maid waited for her to wake up day and night, seeing that the three-day period was about to pass, almost everyone had no hope, but Shen Shu woke up in the early morning of the last day. At that time, the hearts of the people who served were filled with happiness, and they never found out that the person woke up, but it was no longer the original Shen Shu.

The group was delayed in Jingzhou for three days, and then they were busy rushing around again.

Although Shen Shu is the same as the original owner, they are always different, as time goes by, the maids and women around them gradually find that their wives seem to be a little different, but if they want to ask what the difference is, they can't say, and finally have to blame the reason for the sequelae caused by falling into the water, and they no longer pay attention. After all, because there are more people whose temperament has changed greatly after the catastrophe, Shen Shu is nothing compared to those people.

After driving for more than half a month, they finally arrived in Liuzhou Prefecture, and it took another three days for the group to reach the destination of this trip - Quanzhou.

Xie Changning took office, and Shen Shu and other family members also lived in the official residence.

Along the way, Shen Shu learned from the mouth of the maid's mother-in-law that Aunt Zhou and a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses she gave birth to this time were also accompanied by a daughter, Sister Xian, and a boy Brother Yi, who was six years old.

It is said that when the Xie family mansion was built, the most favored was Aunt Zhou, and she was still a means, even Shen Yu in front of her failed to completely control her.

Shen Shu heard such news just to figure out his current situation based on the fragmentary memories left by the original owner, so as to facilitate the decision on what to do next.

Her education taught her that the reason why people are different from plants and animals is because of wisdom and affection. She didn't want to give up the life she had finally gotten up, but if she wanted to compete for favor like most women here, and her life would only be dominated by a man, then she would rather die, because it had crossed her bottom line.

During this time of travel, she has been looking for a boundary, a boundary that will allow her to live well without overpowering her bottom line.

It's just that before she can think about it, something goes wrong again.

The day after arriving in Quanzhou and settling down, Xie Changning's eldest daughter Sister Hui fell ill, although it was not as dangerous as Shen Shu's previous accident when she accidentally fell into the water, but Sister Hui was a little younger, and her body bones were not as good as adults, and this illness was half a month younger, during which the whole person was groggy and almost awake.

Shen Shu, as Sister Hui'er's mother-in-law + aunt combined version, takes care of her untiedly as a matter of course, but because of this, Brother Zhen and Brother Yan don't need her to take care of them for the time being, and they have their own nurses to coax them.

Shen Shu was the kind of single dog who had never even been in love in his last life, and he didn't have any children. It stands to reason that she is very good-looking, but even if she smiles hard, no child wants to let her hug her. Of course, she doesn't like children herself, but she doesn't hate them either.

Now although I have changed my body, I have inherited that physique perfectly. Along the way, neither Sister Hui nor Brother Zhen were close to her, even if they sat at the same table, there was no other communication except for a good voice.

The original owner's attitude towards the two children is not salty, but there is nothing wrong with the care of diet and daily life. Shen Shu just took over this body, and he could only do it as it was.

――

Time flies, and the morning sun has only risen for a while, and it is late afternoon in a blink of an eye.

In the past two days, Sister Hui'er's situation has improved a lot, and she doesn't have to take care of Shen Shu day and night, she has a moment to free in the afternoon, she wanted to take a nap for a while, but she couldn't sleep when she lay down, so she simply took the chessboard and sat under the tree, and played the music for herself. However, when the eye falls on the black and white chessboard, the rest can no longer be seen.

Shen Shu was fascinated, I don't know how long the time has passed, suddenly heard a noise, came back to his senses and was about to look up, when he saw a white shadow coming towards him, and the next moment he directly crashed into her arms, a pair of thin arms hugged her waist tightly, and a crying voice came out of his arms.

"Mother, I miss you so much, Mother ......"

The person who hugged her and cried was Sister Hui'er, the stepdaughter who was not half close to her all the way.

Shen Shu was stunned when she heard this, and a look of surprise appeared on her face, which had never been expressionless.

Not only her, but also the nurse who chased Sister Hui and the servants who served in this yard were also stunned. Because Sister Hui and Shen Shu are not close, everyone knows about it.

Among them, the nurse was the most shocked, others didn't know what to do before, but she saw Sister Hui running out of the house in a hurry, and she didn't even care about putting on her clothes, so she only wore a dirty dress and went straight to the east courtyard. She chased all the way, but saw Sister Hui directly into Shen Shu's arms, and said those words to her again, which made her wonder if she was dreaming.

The courtyard was quiet for a moment.

Sister Hui lay in Shen Shu's arms and sobbed quietly, and called her mother a lot intermittently, saying that she missed her. It wasn't until the tears that slipped from the girl's eyes wet Shen Shu's spring shirt that she came back to her senses, hugged her shoulders in an unfamiliar manner, and comforted her with a voice that softened but sounded strangely disobedient, "Don't cry." ”

The people who were waiting in the courtyard also came back to their senses at this time, and the nurse hurriedly took her clothes and put them on for Sister Hui'er. Although the climate is still good today, Sister Hui has just recovered from a serious illness, and she is only wearing a dirty clothes.

Sister Hui cried for a long time before she stopped, raised her head from Shen Shu's arms, raised her head and looked at her with a pair of red eyes.

"What's wrong?" asked Shen Shu.

Sister Hui shook her head, and somehow, the tears that had just stopped broke the embankment in an instant, like beads with broken threads, falling down one by one.

Seeing her reaction, Shen Shu didn't know what to do, looked at each other for a while, and saw that Sister Hui was actually laughing, revealing an expression that Shen Shu couldn't understand, and buried her head in her arms again, and said "It's so good".

After that, Sister Hui kept pestering Shen Shu, following wherever she went, but fortunately, Shen Shu didn't move much, so the nurse persuaded Sister Hui to lie down and rest, and she sat next to her.

Sister Hui was lying on the bed obediently, but her eyes kept falling on Shen Shu's face, and after looking at her for a long time, she suddenly said to the maid who was waiting in the room, "Dongqin, go and bring your mother's chessboard." ”

Shen Shu was stunned when she heard this, and subconsciously looked at Sister Hui'er, but she didn't expect that the latter's expression was also wrong. Shen Shu said that he didn't know what kind of situation it was. After a while, Sister Hui suddenly lowered her eyes and said to her, "I have seen my mother playing chess alone before, I think I should like it, I thought that my mother would accompany me here, maybe I would be a little bored, so I took it upon myself to let Dongqin go and get the chessboard...... I don't know if I guessed wrong......"

That's the explanation.

When the rest of the room heard this, they still had some doubts, but they also felt that they could understand. But Shen Shu's thoughts are different, which stems from her own special experience. She glanced at Sister Hui carefully, and some thoughts suddenly came to her heart.
