Since I remembered everything in my other life, my health has become worse and worse, and the symptoms of cold have become more and more severe, and I can't sleep at all without a hot water bladder to warm up in the winter nights.

I know it has something to do with the cold medicine I took in those years to suppress the rash caused by begonia pollen.

It's a pity that I didn't know medical science at that time, and if I had changed my prescription a little now, it wouldn't have been so serious.

Fortunately, at that time, I had internal strength to protect my body, which offset the cold caused by the medicine, otherwise it would not be as simple as being afraid of cold now.

But because of this, my internal strength is only 20%, and at most it can only be used for light skills, and the martial arts moves I learned in my early years are only useful when I am dodging.

But it's okay, with Ah Ran, I don't need martial arts.

Master came again later, saying that my frailty had something to do with the fact that I had been subjected to soul magic, and that I could only take care of it.

I don't think there's anything wrong with it, anyway, I'm afraid of the cold, but it just makes Ah Ran a little more worried......

It's spring again, and in a blink of an eye, Qiqi is already three years old, running around the ground and playing, and reciting some simple poems.

The only thing that made me a little disappointed was that because I was dressed as a man, he could only call me "uncle".

What's even more sad is that he probably doesn't even know that I'm a woman.

******

When Ah Ran said that he was going south to serve Weifu, I was stunned for a long time.

He smiled: "After sitting on the dragon chair for five years, it's time to see what the world looks like after the change." ”

"How long are you going to go? When will you be back? ”

I was a little sad to hear that he was leaving Beijing.

When I was a child, I got together with Ah Ran less and separated more.

At first, I didn't even know I had such an older brother, who was already six years old when I knew. I only got along with him for a year, and I changed dramatically, and I was brought to Shengjing by Leng Yihan.

Maybe that's why I've become more and more dependent on him over the years.

He raised his hand and scratched my nose. "You go with me."

"Really!?"

I was pleasantly surprised and delighted.

"Of course it's true. You've been locked up for five years, and you're going to be locked up like this, and I'm afraid you'll get sick. ”

"Great! When are we leaving? ”

He smiled when he saw me so happy. "Seven days later, take Ziqi with you by the way."

"Qiqi also goes?!" I was even more pleasantly surprised.

"Yes. This time, I will still travel as Shen Fengyue, and I will meet with officials along the way.

When it comes to political affairs, I'm afraid that you will be bored, so I will bring you a relief from boredom. ”

The corners of my mouth couldn't stop rising, and my arm was wrapped around his.

"Ah Ran, you are so good! You're so nice! ”

He snorted disdainfully. "Don't you slander me?"

"Who said that? I haven't slandered you, you are so good, how can I be so ignorant? ”

I hurriedly played with him and patted his ass.

He looked at me suspiciously, but said nothing.

Seven days later, we set off on time.

Because it's a private visit to the microserver, everything is simple, everything that can be saved is saved, and there are no maids and servants, but the secret guard still has enough.

The Dark Guards were selected from among the Forbidden Army, and their leader was none other than the Forbidden Army's Commander.

Zhu Yu disguised himself as an attendant and accompanied him all the way.

And only the governors of Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province know about Ah Ran's microservice, and for other officials, they are sick.

After leaving the palace, I finally resumed my women's attire.

It's just that Qiqi, a little confused, saw the appearance of my women's clothes, and called me "mother" without hesitation.

I taught him to call me "aunt", but he still called me "mother" as always.

I had no choice but to give up.

It's no wonder that I look very similar to his mother, and he always thought I was a man, so I can't blame him.

When I can show myself as a woman openly in the future, I will correct his title.

Because of Qiqi's perseverance in calling my mother, along the way, we stayed in the hotel on the way, and the store treated us as a family of three.

At first, I patiently explained, but then we passed through too many towns and cities, and I didn't have the strength to explain.

What's more, Ah Ran will occasionally stay at the official's house, and if I blindly deny it and make people suspicious, I can only pretend to be Qiqi's mother.

Our final destination is North Golden Water City, also known as North City – an important trading center in the north.

From Kyoto to Beicheng, the road is already far away, and Ah Ran has to inspect the people's conditions, stopping and stopping along the way.

Therefore, at our speed, it is estimated that it will be autumn and winter, but we are not in a hurry.

Along the way, I met all kinds of people and things along the way. Some surprise us, and some chill us. I recorded them one by one for Ah Ran and used them as a basis for future rectification.

Before I knew it, it was the end of summer, and Ah Ran and I were standing in front of a city gate, and we were both a little depressed.

The huge plaque on the city gate is engraved with the words "Night City".

That's right, Night City, where we were separated eighteen years ago.

Ah Ran smiled softly. "Let's go into town."

I smiled back and nodded slightly.

After eighteen years, I came to this place again. The mood is so different.

The last time we were on the run into the city, this time it was like a trip.

Everything has changed, but thankfully, after all the twists and turns, I'm still with my family......

After entering the Night City, Ah Ran went directly to the prefect Chen Yu's mansion.

In his early years, Ah Ran traveled all over the world as Shen Fengyue and made friends with many local officials, so Chen Yu was no stranger to his uninvited style.

From there, we borrowed to live in Chen's house.

Perhaps because of the long journey, as soon as we settled down at the prefect's house, Qiqi fell ill and developed a high fever.

I didn't go out for a few days, and I took care of Qiqi all the time. And Ah Ran often discussed things with Chen Yu.

After four or five days, Qiqi finally recovered completely, but his spirit was not very good, and he lay wilted on the couch.

It was nearly evening, and I was just about to go looking for something to eat, when I heard a knock at the door.

I got up and went to open the door.

"Mrs. Chen?"

Chen Yu's wife is a middle-aged woman with a gentle temperament. When I invited her into the house, she nodded politely, stepped into the house, and said to me:

"I just want to come and see, what are the lady and the little master missing? I'm going to do it. By the way, is the little master better? Still burn or not? ”

I smiled gratefully.

"You are too polite, we don't lack anything, and Qiqi has recovered, thank you and the adults for your care these days."

"It should. It's my lord who has been pulling Shen Gongzi to talk about things. ”

There was an apology in her words.

"Fortunately, the little young master has recovered from his illness, and the lady has just arrived in Night City, do you want to take the little young master out for a walk?

It's already dark, and the night market should have been set up.

The night market in our night city is famous for all kinds of snacks, and the little master may like it. ”

As she spoke, Mrs. Chen's eyes glanced at Qiqi, who was dozing off on the couch.

When Qiqi heard that there was something delicious, he opened his eyes. "Mother, I want to have a snack."

I smiled helplessly: "If you want to eat, get up, let's go together." ”

Qi Qi yawned and closed his eyes when he heard this, no wonder, after all, he had just recovered from his illness.

Seeing this, Mrs. Chen smiled kindly. "Why don't I be a guide for the two of you?"

I smiled back. "No need, look at him like this, it's not certain whether he will go or not."

After thinking about it, I said, "Why don't my wife tell me where the night market is, and if he wakes up later, I'll take him for a walk." ”

So Mrs. Chen told me where the night market was.

After she left, I went to see the perch on the couch.

His eyes were half-closed, and he didn't know if he was asleep or awake.

I nudged him, and he snorted.

"Do you want to go to the night market and eat something delicious?"

"Hmm...... I want to eat, but I don't want to go ......."

There was a clear sleepiness in his words.

I was helpless. "Then wait until you want to go."

"But Qiqi wants to eat."

He finally lifted his eyelids and looked at me pitifully with those large, watery eyes.

"Mother, can you go and buy it back for Qiqi?"

Seeing him like this, my whole heart is going to turn into water.

This little villain, doesn't he know that it's shameful to be cute?

He pulled my sleeve and shook it and repeated: "Mother, I want to eat." ”

I couldn't resist it and compromised:

"Okay, I'll buy it for you, okay? But you have to promise me that you will stay in the room obediently, and you will not run around. ”

"Hmm...... Qiqi is obedient and does not run around. As he spoke, he closed his eyes tiredly.

I covered him with a quilt and went out to the night market following the direction Madame Chen had shown me.

The night market is not far away, just a short walk away.

Thinking that nothing would happen in broad daylight, I didn't alarm the rain. He escorted all the way, and it was also hard.

However, what I didn't expect was that as soon as I arrived at the night market, I hadn't bought anything yet, and the raindrops of beans fell down in a hurry, like a scoop, and the food stalls on the street were soon gone.

I went to the eaves to take shelter from the rain, thinking that I would wait for the rain to stop before leaving, but the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the wind was getting cooler.

Most of my clothes were wet, and I was blown and shivered, blaming me for being too hot during the day and wearing less clothes.

If I wait like this, I'm afraid I'll catch a cold, and I will inevitably be scolded by Ah Ran when I go back, and it's really shameless to be scolded in front of Qiqi.

Fortunately, the place where I sheltered from the rain happened to be an inn, so I went in directly and asked for a room.

The proprietress saw that my clothes were wet and kindly handed me a new set of clothes.

I wanted to excuse myself, but the wet clothes were uncomfortable, so I took it.

I wanted to give her money for clothes, but she didn't want it, but I shoehorned it into her.

She was helpless, so she called for hot water.

Seeing that she was so enthusiastic, I couldn't refuse, so I took a shower and changed into new clothes.

I changed my clothes and left my hair to dry, and it was already dark, but the rain had just stopped.

I blew out the candles in my room and went to the lobby to settle the bill.

When I was about to reach the door, the door suddenly opened, and I was stunned and looked at the passer.

I saw a man standing in the corridor.

The hallway he was in was full of lights and candles, and it was dark.

He knew that there were people in the house but he could not see me, but I could see him clearly.

The moment his face met my eyes, my heart stopped beating for a moment......
