Rebirth: Ordinary Life and Living

After saying that, Zhou Xinyue spread out her hands and showed the brand new pure gold token in her hand to Li Yingying.

Li Yingying knew at first glance that this token was not her previous one. It was indeed newly made and the color was very new.

After reading it, Li Yingying smiled and said, "Don't be polite, sister. If you want to borrow anything, just tell me. If you need anything, just tell me. As long as I have it, I can give it to you. But as for the token, I already have one in my hand. That token was given to me by the prince before, so I am not in a hurry now. If you don't have a token, you can use the new token in your hand for the time being. The one from the prince is enough for me."

Zhou Xinyue smiled and said, "In that case, then just listen to my sister."

Jin Yourong said: "Since the young lady has already made the new token, then Concubine Li, you should return my token to me and you can use the new one."

Li Yingying frowned and said anxiously, "Your Majesty, I have been using the token you gave me for a while now. I have become accustomed to it and have developed some feelings for it. I wonder if Your Majesty would like to give me the token."

Jin Yourong was about to speak with a hint of displeasure in his eyes. Zhou Xinyue knew what he wanted to say, so she spoke first and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, since Sister Li Fei has developed feelings for you through using your token, Your Majesty might as well give the token to Sister Li Fei. This will make Sister Li Fei happy, and naturally, Sister Li Fei's illness will get better faster. So I beg Your Majesty to be bold and give the token to Sister Li Fei."

Jin Yourong turned his head and glanced at Zhou Xinyue. With just one glance, he seemed to see through something and immediately said, "Well, since the young lady has said so, if I force the token back, it would be my fault. Since you like the token so much, you can keep it. As long as you are happy."

Li Yingying immediately put on a smile and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for giving up your love. Thank you, my sister, for your support."

After saying this, Li Yingying started coughing again.

Zhou Xinyue said hurriedly, "Sister is very ill. I wonder if the cough is caused by the pollen of the flowers in this room. Do you want to call a doctor to take a look?"

Jin Yourong hurriedly fed Li Yingying some hot water. After drinking it, Li Yingying felt better and her coughing was not so severe. After a long while, she said, "No, these are Ye Shuzhu given by my sister. I have cultivated them carefully to have these in the house. The Ye Shuzhu planted in the outer courtyard are all rare fine products. The subtle fragrance of this Ye Shuzhu at night can make me sleep well at night. They can not only repel mosquitoes on summer nights, but also repel the cold in winter. If you soak them in water and drink them, they can also dispel evil spirits and beautify your skin. If you sprinkle some Ye Shuzhu flowers when taking a hot bath, it can whiten your skin. Even when your skin is scalded or has skin allergies and rashes, apply a little Ye Shuzhu juice, and it will be back to normal within three days."

Zhou Xinyu was surprised and said, "So that's how it is. What a magical Ye Shuzhu. Maybe I'm too ignorant. Even in Cangdu City, I've never heard of such a plant. It really opened my eyes."

Li Yingying smiled bitterly and said, "It's not my fault. This was found in the palace of the Kingdom of Sis when my brother-in-law represented the court to attack it. Later, my brother-in-law brought it back to pay tribute to the emperor. In addition to rewarding the favored queen, the emperor also gave some to my sister. My sister has doted on me since she was a child, so she gave some to me. If you like it, I can also give some to you."

Zhou Xinyue said hurriedly: "Really? That's great. I'd like to thank you here."

Li Yingying said gently, "Since I have limited leaves of bamboo, I can only give you one. I hope you will accept it."

Zhou Xinyue said politely: "Thank you, sister!"

Jin Yourong said softly: "Well, you have been tired enough today, I will leave with you first, you should have a good rest and take care of yourself."

After saying that, Jin Yourong prepared to get up and leave.

Zhou Xinyue stood up and saluted. When she was about to leave, she didn't expect Li Yingying to sit up like a spring and hug Jin Yourong's waist with both hands. She cried and said aggrievedly: "My lord, don't leave. Stay with me for a while! I can't bear to see you leave."

Li Yingying put her head on Jin Yourong, not wanting him to leave at all.

Zhou Xinyue looked at this scene and felt very uncomfortable. But she still tried to control her mood at the moment, and forced a smile, saying: "Zhi'er just fell asleep outside the door. I am afraid that he will not sleep well, so I will leave first."

After saying that, Li Yingying's personal maid came over and handed Zhou Xinyue a leaf of bamboo, and politely extended her hand as a gesture of invitation.

Zhou Xinyue asked Xiaoju to take it and left with the group.

Jin Yourong looked at Zhou Xinyue's departing back and felt a sinking feeling in his heart, feeling very lost.

Turning his head and looking at Li Yingying who was clinging to him, he felt helpless. He sighed and decided to stay.

On the way back, Fanxing gestured and asked, "Do you want to wait for the prince in the garden? When the prince comes out, we can go back together."

Zhou Xinyue shook her head and said, "No need, let's go back first."

Zhou Xinyue felt empty inside and unknowingly came to a fork in the road.

Zhou Xinyue stared at the fork in the road in a daze, because if she went a little further along the road she would reach Anle Courtyard where she had lived not long ago.

Maybe now there are only ruins left of that courtyard, but she suddenly wanted to take another look.

Zhou Xinyue turned to Xiaomei and said, "You and the nurse Xiaolan take Zhier back first. Fanxing Xiaoju and I will go over there to take a look and will be back soon."

Xiaomei bowed and said, "Yes, then girl, please come back soon."

Zhou Xinyue nodded.

Zhou Xinyue took Fanxing and Xiaoju to the original site of Anle Courtyard.

Although some time has passed, this place still looks the same as it did after the fire.

Zhou Xinyue looked at the small courtyard where she had lived for a short time, and still felt a little sad and reluctant.

After all, I have lived here since I came to Zhiye City and have lived here for a period of time. It still makes me sad to see it turned into a pile of ruins in a blink of an eye.

What was even more sad was the relics left by Goudan's mother. All of them were burned, including the hairpin that Jin Youyuan had given her.

Zhou Xinyue sighed and looked at the ruins with tears in her eyes.

Zhou Xinyue sighed and said, "Fanxing, Xiaoju, the two of you try to look for something like a hairpin or a book in there."
