Chapter VII: Identity Change

Jiang Zhengxin has transformed from a wealthy lady with stars and the moon to a maid in the palace.

But a six-year-old girl can't even take care of herself, how can she serve others, either breaking the things in the house, or wetting Liyuan's article, which scared the housekeeper's mother all day long. Every time Jiang Zhengxin made a mistake, the housekeeper's mother had to blame herself for not being able to teach, and she had already cried and kowtowed to Liyuan countless times.

However, Li Yuan was not angry because of this, but forbade the people in the palace to blame Jiang Zhengxin and let her cause chaos in the palace. This made people speculate why the prince, who has always been indifferent, would be very generous to this stupid girl who called her brother who called her donkey, and put her donkey brother and little black horse brother in the backyard and raised them well.

The reason is only known to Liyuan himself. He lost his mother since he was a child, and his father neglected him, so that he never experienced what warmth was. But that day, when he saw Jiang Zhengxin wearing a flower crown and smiling and playing in the stream, he suddenly felt a trace of warmth in his heart. He liked her carefree look and her innocent smile, so he brought her back. Now that she is laughing, naughty, and messing around with her, he feels less lonely.

Fortunately, Jiang Zhengxin was still young, and he quickly adapted to life in the palace, and gradually dispelled the idea of escaping. Only when she has nothing to do, she will go to Liyuan to have a meal and a cup of tea, which can be regarded as a little bit of master and servant.

The fifteenth day of each month is the day that Jiang Zhengxin looks forward to the most, because the government will distribute monthly money. Every day, she will get up early and wait at the door of the bookkeeper, and as soon as she receives the monthly money, she will sneak out of the house to eat roast duck in Honghui Building, or go to Xianwei Zhai to buy pastries, and she can squander it on the same day. Over time, Mr. Bookkeeper has become accustomed to opening the door on the morning of the fifteenth day of each month, and the first thing he sees must be this smiling little girl.

But because Li Yuan was afraid that Jiang Zhengxin would save money and escape, he didn't give her much monthly money. Whenever Jiang Zhengxin felt that the money was not enough, he would go to discuss with the bookkeeper and wanted to overdraft the monthly money. Later, when Liyuan found out about this, he ordered Jiang Zhengxin to be forbidden to interfere with Mr. Accounts' official duties, and also stopped her monthly silver.

may have finally known that Jiang Zhengxin was too idle, and Liyuan began to let her go to the study every day to read with him. He also knew that Jiang Zhengxin was reluctant to come, so he prepared a lot of sweets and snacks in the study to attract her, and then took the opportunity to detain her, and refused to let her leave until she finished reading.

Jiang Zhengxin, who had no monthly money to buy pastries, could only be constrained by Liyuan, and whenever he was left behind, he would lie on the couch in his study, eating pastries and flipping through some books to read.

Since then, Liyuan's study has been filled with unclean pastry crumbs and endless ants and flying insects.

But it was also from that time that Jiang Zhengxin fell in love with the arithmetic machine, and he was out of control, and every time he studied it, even Liyuan couldn't call her.

……

One day, Jiang Zhengxin ran to the back garden with a kite, and was suddenly stopped on the way.

"Xin'er, what are you running for? Come here. ”

It's the voice of Liyuan.

Jiang Zhengxin stopped and turned around. Then she was stunned for a moment and stammered, "Brother... Brother? You... You were turned back by Grandpa Immortal? ”

At this time, there was a young man with sword eyebrows standing beside Li Yuan, who was Jiang Zhengyu. Even though he had grown much taller and more handsome, Jiang Zhengxin still recognized his brother at a glance.

Jiang Zhengyu obviously didn't expect that the sister he had been looking for for a long time would suddenly appear in front of him, and asked excitedly, "Xin'er, why are you here?" ”

Jiang Zhengxin replied puzzledly: "I've always been here, haven't you been living in the palace with me since you were turned into a donkey by your immortal grandfather?" Could it be that you lose your memory as soon as you change back? ”

Li Yuan thought of Jiang Zhengxin's brother who had been calling the donkey for five years, and couldn't help but feel funny, and hurriedly explained to Jiang Zhengxin: "Xin'er, this worry-free son Jiang Zhengyu should be your brother, not the donkey in the backyard, you have always admitted your mistake." ”

A few days ago, Liyuan's father borrowed money from Sanssouci to fight, and Liyuan saw Jiang Zhengyu for the first time. He felt that in addition to their similar names, Jiang Zhengxin and Jiang Zhengyu also had many similarities in appearance and behavior, so he invited Jiang Zhengyu to come to the mansion as a guest. Now it seems that he guessed correctly, they are indeed a brother and sister.

Jiang Zhengyu couldn't help gritting his teeth when he heard it: "Okay, you actually recognized a donkey as me, you are really my good sister." ”

Jiang Zhengxin thought that his brother was angry and wanted to explain. But before he could speak, he was suddenly hugged into his arms by Jiang Zhengyu.

Over the years, Jiang Zhengyu has been struggling to find his sister. Every time I think of my young sister being left alone, I feel infinitely sad and miss in my heart. Now that he really held his sister in his arms, Jiang Zhengyu's eyes were a little moist, and he blamed himself: "It's all my fault for not being good, I didn't find you earlier, my brother will protect you well in the future, and I won't let you suffer outside alone." ”

After the brother and sister recognized each other, Li Yuan let Jiang Zhengxin leave without saying a word, and sent the donkey, the little black horse, and the things she commonly used in the palace to Jiang Mansion.

Looking at Jiang Zhengxin's small family property, Jiang Zhengyu sighed: "I only thought you had suffered a lot over the years, but I didn't expect you to live a bad life in the palace!" ”

……

At this moment, Jiang Zhengxin tilted her head and stood in front of her family's ancestral grave, thoughtful.

Xiao Tao stood on Jiang Zhengxin's shoulder, learning her appearance, crossed her hands, tilted her head, and didn't know what she was thinking.

Luan Shu and more than twenty guards stood solemnly behind Jiang Zhengxin and Xiao Tao, guessing what they were thinking about for so long.

Finally, Jiang Zhengxin turned around and said to everyone: "Okay, let's go in." ”
