After rebirth, I kidnapped the sickly Dugong

Wen Baizhi didn't know about Si Jiu's situation in the palace.

At this time, Ping An was taking her to the home where she used to live.

That is Wen Bai’s home.

Because this house was sealed by Qi Yan'an.

Ping'an took her through a small door at the back door where few people passed, unlocked it and let her in.

Seeing Ping An unlock the door so skillfully, Wen Baizhi teased him, "Good Ping An, I didn't know you could do this."

Ping An scratched his head in embarrassment: "Madam, please don't tease me. This is all before I entered the palace. Life at home was hard. I had no choice but to learn some petty theft skills."

As if he was worried that Wen Baizhi might think of him, Ping An hurriedly explained:

"Madam, I had just learned this skill when my parents sent me to the palace. Although life in the palace was hard at first, at least I had food to eat every day, so I never used this skill."

Wen Baizhi knew that in feudal society, if a boy in a family was sent to the palace to be castrated and become a eunuch, the family would most likely be very poor.

She said, "I know you are a poor child. It's good for you to have some skills. If you didn't have this skill, we wouldn't be able to get in now."

Wen Baizhi's calm attitude towards the matter made Ping An even more embarrassed.

"Now that I am following the governor, and the governor is with my wife, I am really not suffering at all, really, my wife."

As if to make Wen Baizhi believe what he said, Ping An repeated it several times.

Wen Baizhi was amused by his appearance: "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore."

After the two of them went in, Wen Baizhi led the way.

Ping An followed her and saw that she was very familiar with the Wen family. Although he had some doubts in his heart, he sensibly put them aside.

After all, many times, it is safer to keep things in your heart than to speak them out loud.

"Ping An, you said that you were sent to the palace by your family, so where are they now? In Kyoto?"

On the way to find the buried token, Wen Baizhi became interested in chatting with Ping An.

Ping An looked at the ground with his eyes. "They are no longer in Kyoto, but they live with my brother not far from Kyoto, so it is convenient for me to send people to send them some money and things."

Wen Baizhi asked: "Do you have a younger brother?"

Ping An replied: "Yes, my brother is three years younger than me. He is the only child in our family now."

Although Ping An didn't say everything, Wen Baizhi still understood the sadness behind his words.

A poor family with two sons finally sent only the eldest son to the palace for castration.

Obviously, the eldest son now has a decent official position in the Governor's Mansion and his salary is not low.

But they still didn't live close to their eldest son for some reason.

But they still needed their eldest son to help them frequently.

Because they also have a younger son who can carry on the family line.

Really.

sad.

But this is the epitome of most of the lower-class families in this feudal society.

Even Ping An's parents are lucky.

At least Ping An can make money for them.

And Ping An is also lucky.

Because he met a gentle boss like Si Jiu.

just.

Has Ping An always been called Ping An?

"Have you always called me Ping'an?" Wen Baizhi thought of this question.

Ping An smiled helplessly. "I didn't have a decent name when I was at home. I only knew that my last name was Wang. My parents called me Goudan. I guess it was because my family was poor and a bad name would make it easier to support me. The name Ping An was given to me by the eunuch after I entered the palace. From that time on, I was just Ping An."

Wen Baizhi disagreed: "At least you know your last name is Wang, right? It's good to have a name. Whether it's Goudan or Ping'an, it's you anyway. Of course, I think Ping'an sounds better than Goudan."

Wen Baizhi smiled appropriately as she spoke.

This blew away the slight sadness that had been lingering in Ping An's heart.

He looked at Wen Baizhi's back and realized for the first time that there was a reason why Du Gong liked her.

She really treats everyone equally.

It was the same when I was in Jinzhou before.

At that time, everyone was at risk of contracting smallpox, but Wen Baizhi never retreated.

He has been working with them personally to treat the villagers.

This is true again.

Ping'an thought, no wonder Cuizhi is so nice.

Every time he brought her something or did something for her, she would say thank you to him.

It had been a long time since he had heard anyone say thank you to him.

As expected, master and servant are so similar.

As she spoke, Wen Baizhi found the tree.

Although she hadn't been back here for only a few years, Wen Baizhi couldn't help but shed tears when she saw the tree that had grown up with her since she was a child.

In my memory, this tree seems to have always been this big.

It's just that she kept getting bigger and bigger, and her arms kept getting longer and longer.

Tree trunks that were previously impossible to hug can now be hugged easily.

Even.

The person who used to watch over her while she climbed up the tree, worried yet doting.

It's long gone.

Wen Baizhi sniffed, trying to drive away the sadness at the moment.

When she came, she brought digging tools, which were always carried by Ping'an.

At this moment, she gestured to Ping'an to give the things to her.

Ping An said, "Madam, please don't do this kind of rough work. Let me do it."

Wen Baizhi shook her head: "No, you don't know the exact location, nor how deep it is buried. Although I can tell you all this, I still want to dig it out myself."

This was the last thing Wen Bai's father and brother left her.

Carrying the infinite love and hope in their hearts.

So she hoped that this thing would be dug out by herself.

After hearing what she said, Ping'an handed the tools in his hand to her.

"If you feel tired and can't dig anymore, please tell me immediately."

Ping An thought about it and gave a reminder.

Wen Baizhi took the tools and squatted down to dig: "I know, I won't be polite to you, Wang Ping'an."

This was the first time she called him by his full name.

Ping'an felt inexplicably ashamed.

If I had known earlier, I would not have told my wife that my last name is Wang, Ping An thought.

While digging, Wen Baizhi thought about the time when she was at the border and received a letter from her father and brother from Yunzhou.

The letter said that they had been infected with miasma and were seriously ill, and they were afraid that they would not live long.

They have lived up to the great achievements and to Your Majesty in their lives.

The only one who feels guilty is Wen Bai.

But they did not regret it, at least Wen Bai's life was not in danger at the moment.

In the letter, they also used the Wen family's unique method of information transmission, and told Wen Bai with special words that the token was buried under the big tree in the old house.

But they also said.

I hope Wen Bai will never have to use this power in his life.

Indeed a prophecy.

Wen Bai was indeed useless.

Wen Baizhi was used.
