Rebirth: Ordinary Life and Living

Seeing Fu Huan kneeling down and hastily apologizing, everyone took a few steps back awkwardly, their hearts beating nervously.

Li Yingying's heart was pounding when she saw Jin Yourong's livid face. She didn't know what Jin Yourong would do.

Li Yingying was just about to speak up to defend Fu Huan, but unexpectedly, Jin Yourong walked up to Fu Huan and instantly grabbed Fu Huan's throat with his right hand and lifted her up.

Fu Huan was lifted into the air. She stared in horror, her face becoming more and more ugly. As she couldn't breathe, her face gradually turned red and then blue.

Some of the unsteady concubines nearby screamed in fear, and everyone was in panic.

Li Yingying was so scared that her mouth slightly opened. She couldn't react for a long time. Until she saw Fu Huan could no longer bear it and her feet were struggling uncomfortably in the air, Li Yingying quickly apologized for Fu Huan and said quickly: "Your Majesty, please forgive Sister Fu Huan. She didn't do it on purpose. Your Majesty, you also know her character. She always likes to speak quickly. In the past, Your Majesty said that he liked straightforward people like Sister Fu Huan. Now Sister Fu Huan's words offended the girl. She was wrong. Please forgive her for her first offense!"

Jin Yourong looked at Li Yingying and said sternly, "Miss Yu is a guest invited by the king. Even though she is not from the Yan'an Palace, she is the person that the king respects the most. The king will not allow anyone to bully her, not to mention that she is the in-law of the king's wife. The king should treat her with the highest courtesy. Now, she dares to bully Miss Yu in front of the king. After all, it is my fault that I did not discipline the people in my backyard well and made Miss Yu laugh."

After saying that, Jin Yourong looked at Zhou Xinyue, who was embarrassed and at a loss as to what to do.

I felt really uncomfortable. Although I hated Fu Huan, seeing her struggling and suffering, I felt that I had vented my anger and didn't want to make things so embarrassing anymore, so I softened my heart.

Li Yingying looked at Jin Yourong and then at Zhou Xinyue, and hurried over to Zhou Xinyue, saying quickly, "Girl, dear sister, please quickly persuade the prince. Sister Fu Huan didn't mean it. I apologize to you on her behalf. Please quickly persuade the prince. If she waits a little longer, I'm afraid Sister Fu Huan won't be able to make it. Dear sister, please persuade her."

Zhou Xinyue looked at Fu Huan, whose movements began to slow down. It looked like she could no longer hold on. Her heart softened and she said hastily, "Your Highness, forget it. She probably didn't mean to do it. Forgive her!"

Seeing Zhou Xinyue begging for mercy, Jin Yourong's heart softened. He nodded and said, "Okay, since you asked, I will let her go for now."

After saying that, he threw Fu Huan away. Fu Huan fell to the ground, took a deep breath, and kept coughing, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

Jin Yourong glanced at the group of women and said loudly, "Listen carefully, this lady is my guest and the person I respect the most. If you do something like what happened today again, I will kill her and will never let her off easily!"

After saying this, he stared at the group of women fiercely, his warning clearly in his eyes.

After a pause, he continued, "As for my son, I will let whoever I want take care of him. So, from today on, the girl will take care of my son's food and daily life until she asks to leave the palace on her own initiative. She can stay in my palace as long as she wants, and no one is allowed to make too many comments, otherwise I will make her suffer!"

Li Yingying turned around and winked at everyone. Everyone bowed and answered in unison, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Jin Yourong turned around and looked at Zhou Xinyue. He immediately softened from his dignified and angry look, and said with a smile on his face, "I'm sorry to scare you. From now on, you can stay here as long as you want and don't have to pay attention to others. This is your home."

Zhou Xinyue felt warm in her heart and nodded quickly, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Jin Yourong lowered his head to look at the child again, his eyes more gentle as he said, "He is my only child. I am worried about leaving him to others. I can only feel at ease if I leave him to you."

Jin Yourong looked up at Zhou Xinyue with gentle and sincere eyes, which made Zhou Xinyue suddenly distracted.

His eyebrows and eyes looked just like his, so similar and so gentle. Someone once looked at her with the same eyes.

Zhou Xinyue looked at Jin Yurong with eyes that softened involuntarily, and she stared at him intently as if she was trapped in him.

Jin Yourong looked at Zhou Xinyue who was in a trance, and felt a little surprise and sweetness in his heart. The two of them just looked at each other for a moment without saying anything.

Li Yingying looked up at the two of them, her face expressionless, and said, "Miss, you must be tired. The child needs a rest after crying for so long. Go and have a rest! Don't let the prince worry."

Zhou Xinyue came back to her senses, and seeing Jin Yourong suddenly react, she quickly stepped back a few steps, nodded and said, "Sister Li Fei is right. The child has been crying for so long, and I am indeed a little tired. I won't disturb you anymore, and I will take my leave first."

After saying that, Zhou Xinyue quickly bowed as a greeting and hurried away from this place of trouble.

Li Yingying instantly breathed a sigh of relief and sent someone to take the dying Fu Huan away to rest.

Li Yingying looked at Jin Yourong, who was looking in the direction Zhou Xinyue left without taking his eyes away, and stood silently beside him.

After a long while, Li Yingying said gently: "My Lord, you have worked hard during this period, why don't you go down and take a rest!"

Jin Yourong turned around, looked at Li Yingying's gentle appearance, sighed and said: "You too, thank you for your hard work during this period, you have done a great job."

Li Yingying's eyes instantly filled with tears as she looked at Jin Wooyoung.

Jin Yourong slowly raised his hand and placed it on her shoulder, and said, "Go down and rest. I still need to go to the camp to check. I am leaving."

After saying that, Jin Yourong pinched her shoulder and left quickly.

Li Yingying looked at Jin Yourong's departing back with moist eyes. She put her other hand on the place where Jin Yourong had pinched her shoulder just now, recalling his intimate behavior just now. She said with gentle eyes unconsciously: "My lord, for you, no matter how hard it is for me, it is nothing."

Zhou Xinyue returned to the courtyard, her heart pounding.

Zhou Xinyue hurriedly took the child back to the room and placed it in the cradle beside her bed.

After putting the child down gently, she covered him with the quilt and touched the child's forehead with a smile.

He turned around and sat on the edge of the bed, his heart still pounding.

Zhou Xinyue touched her heart with her hand and asked herself in confusion: "What the hell, what's wrong with me?"

Fanxing bought a bunch of delicious food and put them in the small kitchen, then knocked on the door gently, and saw Zhou Xinyue who was in a daze.

Fanxing came over and patted Zhou Xinyue, who was in a trance, and was startled.

Fanxing was also startled and asked her what was wrong and why she was sitting there in a daze alone?

Zhou Xinyue looked at the curious Fanxing, shook her head, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I just mistook someone for a moment."

After saying that, Zhou Xinyue went to sit at the table and drink tea.

Fanxing looked at Zhou Xinyue and gestured with a smile, meaning, "What did you see wrong? Tell me."

Zhou Xinyue lowered her eyes and shook her head, not looking at Fanxing, saying, "I've already said it, it's nothing, I just saw it wrong. By the way, where did you go just now? If a girl hadn't run in and told me that the child wouldn't stop crying, I'm afraid the little baby would have suffered a lot."

Fanxing hurriedly explained that she had just gone to the market and bought a lot of delicious food, all of which were the light sweets that Zhou Xinyue liked.

Zhou Xinyue herself didn’t know why she preferred to eat slightly sweet desserts now. Perhaps life was too bitter. The instant sweetness of slightly sweet desserts blooming in her mouth could somewhat digest some of the bitterness of life. Even if it was just that slight sweetness in her mouth, it could bring pleasure to her spirit. For Zhou Xinyue, it was something worth being happy about.
