"Emperor Duanning's six years in power was the period of fastest decline in the late Yan Dynasty..."

Qiao Jinsheng twitched the corner of his mouth, picked up the eraser in hand and threw it behind him.

There was an "ouch" from behind.She pursed her mouth, thinking that it was too unfair, and it was fine if she was written like this... But today the history teacher focused on "Xuande's Prosperous Age".

Qiao Jinsheng was depressed.

The sky darkened a little bit, and the get out of class bell rang five times alternately.Half an hour after the last bell rang, the teacher finally announced that school was over.

Qiao Jinsheng packed her schoolbag slowly. When she picked up the history book, she looked at the crimson cover and the portrait of Emperor Duan Ning on it, and was silent for a long time.

The deskmate put his schoolbag on his shoulder, turned around to say goodbye, and happened to see her like this.The girl chuckled and teased: "Don't be sad, little Jinsheng~ Little Jinsheng is not a tyrant." She turned to the back, waved to the boy who was pressing his cell phone at the back table, and said with a smile: "Student Xia Yan, the emperor of the ages, also Don't be too complacent ~ Speaking of which, your two names are really interesting."

The girl left giggling, Qiao Jinsheng said "ah", sat back in his seat, and stared at the history book in a daze.

I thought everything would be burned to ashes after a big fire, but I never thought that I would live again in the world thousands of years later.

Even, met an old friend again.

But not the person I most want to see.

……

She finally put down the history book, zipped up her schoolbag, and was ready to go home.

Qiao Jinsheng chuckled: "Brother Xia Yan—brother—"

The veins on Xia Yan's forehead twitched.

Qiao Jinsheng's mood suddenly improved: "Go home!"

Xia Yan turned off the phone and mocked: "Why, Emperor Duanning has nothing to say to future generations?"

Qiao Jinsheng frowned: "Brother, who is your heir born to the queen?"

Xia Yan didn't take it seriously: "You don't understand."

Qiao Jinsheng: ...

The two turned off the lights in the classroom, checked the doors and windows, and finally walked out of the classroom.

Qiao Jinsheng looked up at the sign that said "Senior Class One and Two", rubbed his eyes, feeling very disappointed.

As early as when she learned to recognize the characters of later generations, she went to check the evaluation of her by later generations, but was pierced by those words, and then looked back at what she had done in the past...

I just don't want to mention it.

Later, her parents in this life divorced, and she was sentenced to her father.A few years later, the father remarried, and the woman brought a boy who was several months younger than her.

Looking back on the past, Qiao Jinsheng felt quite horrible.

When she learned that the boy's name was "Xia Yan", she had a bad feeling... Sure enough, even though they had never met each other in the previous life, the two quickly found clues from each other's behavior and "recognized each other".

The spring of this year came very early, the point of direct sunlight has only moved less than half the distance to the equator, and the roadside has grown green.

Qiao Jinsheng stood under the street lamp, holding a booklet full of foreign words in her hand. She seemed to read it carefully for a long time, until the bus came, and then put the booklet back into her schoolbag.

Only she knew that she didn't watch it at all just now.

In the history textbook, the portrait of herself was ugly and she couldn't look directly at it, but it still touched a certain place in her heart.

A full 15 years have passed, almost half of the time she lived in the previous life, and she almost forgot that face that she loved so much that she loved it so deeply.

My sister's eyes are red phoenix eyes, which are breathtakingly beautiful when raised.

The corners of my sister's lips are always slightly raised, her smile is soft, and her voice is always gentle and soft.

Also, the moment my sister puts on her wedding dress...

Absolutely, definitely not as ugly as in the book!

But speaking of it, when she painted the portrait in her last life...she didn't seem to think so, did she?

Sure enough, the reason for the aesthetic change o(╯□╰)o

The bus slammed on the brakes, pulling back Qiao Jinsheng's wandering mind.She staggered, and when she was about to fall to the ground, she was supported by someone standing beside her.

Qiao Jinsheng stood up again and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "Thank you."

If it weren't for Xia Yan...she might really feel that the so-called previous life was just her fantasy.

It turns out that there are not only the two countries of Nanyan in this world, but also a wider world beyond the original sea.

Thousands of miles away, country M.

Slender and slender fingers jumped on the black and white keys, and flowing notes poured out.

The girl lying next to the piano listened intently, and clapped her hands after the last chord was over, praising: "Sister Xiaoman is so amazing."

Qiao Man breathed a sigh of relief, and patted the girl's head: "Where's your brother?"

The girl "hummed": "My brother also said that he would teach me to play the piano... I don't know where to go on a date."

Qiao Man: "...What about Miss Wan?"

The girl made a bitter face: "Is Miss Wan in love? She doesn't stay home all day long." She rolled her eyes and said, "Sister Xiaoman, have you seen Miss Wan's boyfriend?" After thinking about it, she continued to ask: "Could it be the one from the previous life?"

Qiao Man paused, as if she suddenly remembered something: "You are obviously older than me, why do you always call me sister."

The girl stuck out her tongue: "I'm a child again~"

Qiao Man sighed: "It's up to you. I heard from Ayu, do you want to go back to China to study?"

Xia Xuan touched her forehead: "I haven't decided yet. I want to study the ancient history of country C, focusing on the Southern Dynasties. Well, thinking about it, I think it is just around the corner to become a master."

Qiao Man gave her a meaningful look: "That's it?"

Xia Xuan nodded.

Qiao Man's eyes were sympathetic: "If you go back to China, can you keep up with math?"

Xia Xuan: ...

The little girl covered her face and hummed.

Qiao Man complained, Princess Yue Ning died of old age in her previous life... Where did those older than her live?

If the little girl in front of me who only knows how to be cute is the elder sister of Emperor Xuande, the younger sister of Prince Zuo, the princess who was most likely to marry Yan in the rumors—of course, she didn’t go—who would believe it?

But that's not bad.

Qiao Man raised the corners of her lips slightly, then touched Xia Xuan's head, and comforted her: "It's okay, when Ayu comes back, I'll let him teach you how to play the piano."

Xia Xuan put down her hands, worried: "It's better not to teach piano, let's teach mathematics."

Qiao Man: "Well, that's fine."

Xia Xuan felt quite tragic: "I need sweets to replenish my HP! Sister Man, let's have macarons for afternoon tea!"

Qiao Man said deeply, "Okay, wait for your sister Wan to come back."

Xia Xuan: "...No one will marry a woman who can't cook!"

Qiao Man smiled slightly: "Yeah, so I'm LES, I can trick a little girl to go home and cook."

Xia Xuan was speechless, choked up, thought for a while, and asked, "Sister Wan and Bai Xiao are fine. Sister Man, if you meet that Qiao again..." Trying hard to recall the full name for a long time, "Danning, you will... …?"

Qiao Man was taken aback.

Xia Xuan snapped her fingers: "Look, Sister Man, you and Sister Wan met when they were five or six years old, right? My brother and I are also brothers and sisters in this life, and Sister Xiaoyin is still my cousin... The rest, Sister Man's group Brother and brother met together during high school and college. Sister Wan's current boyfriend is Bai Xiao as expected... This is the case in country M, wouldn't it be more convenient to go back to country C..."

Qiao Man's eyes dimmed a little.

A group of people from previous lives who met in a foreign country due to various reasons, after several years, finally gathered at Z University in M ​​country, and rented an apartment near Z University.

Perhaps because of the conversation during the day, Qiao Man had a dream that night.

The Chonghua Palace in the dream was slowly burning, and the flames were strange, and Qiao Jinsheng's face was faintly visible in it.

"I am so happy……"

"I like my sister the most!"

The originally fair face turned into scorched black in the raging fire, and then, the skin on the face fell off piece by piece.

A face dripping with blood was reflected.

"Sister, you said you love me, how can you not want me?"

Qiao Man was awakened by the nightmare.She sat up, reached out to the bedside table and fumbled for a long time, and finally found the water glass on it.

I thought I'd forgotten about it...

Qiao Man regained her composure, picked up the cup and brought it to her lips, and took small sips.

Her hands were still trembling, and the image of the dream was repeated in her mind over and over again.Finally, Qiao Man closed her eyes again, leaned against the head of the bed and breathed calmly.

The sun begins to rise over the horizon.

She opened her eyes, her eyes were clearer than ever before.

"Go home?"

Xia Yu raised her eyebrows, first took a sip of coffee slowly, then smiled at A Wan who was making the coffee, and said, "What did the little girl tell you?"

A Wan put her worry on her face: "Man'er, your complexion is so bad, did you not rest?"

Qiao Man held the cup that was glowing with heat, and rubbed her palm against the wall of the cup back and forth: "I dreamed about... her."

A Wan was startled, and quickly realized: "Qiao Jinsheng?"

Xia Yu said "Hey", thoughtfully.

Qiao Man smiled at A Wan comfortingly, and then turned to Xia Yu: "If A Xuan wants to learn the ancient history of country C, the domestic environment is indeed better."

Xia Yu was helpless: "She just wants to be lazy."

Qiao Man had a helpless expression: "I'm not spoiled by you." She became serious, "I graduated from graduate school this summer, and I can only do academics in the Department of Mathematics. Ah Xuan returns to China alone. Don't worry, and you don't have time, so it's best for me to go."

Xia Yu: "...Are you sure?"

The corner of Qiao Man's lips curled up: "Sure."

Xia Yu pondered for a moment: "School starts in September in China...Xiao Qiao, do you have a job you want to do?"

Qiao Man thought for a while: "Teacher?"

Xia Yu: "Well... I'll find my uncle and try to arrange it for you."

It turned out that things were contrary to expectations. Qiao Man did succeed in getting a job, but she didn't get into the school that Xia Xuan was going to.

On the day of the report, she walked around the classes she was going to teach in the future behind the senior group leader.The students came in groups of three or four, and left soon after receiving their books and paying their tuition fees.The head of the age group is a very energetic woman who has just reached middle age. He introduced her to her all the way, and when we parted at the end, he focused on the school he was very optimistic about and looked forward to the new teacher.

Qiao Man smiled shyly: "I see, thank you Teacher Chen."

On the second day, Qiao Man's class was arranged in the first quarter of Class [-] and [-] of Senior High School.Also because of the maternity leave of the deputy head teacher of the second class, she was told to concurrently serve as the deputy class of the second class for a period of time.She didn't have any objection to this, and the head teacher specially set aside time during the morning reading to introduce the new teacher to everyone.

On the morning of September [-]st, Qiao Man followed the head teacher into the classroom.The latter glanced at two empty seats in the classroom, frowned and said, "It's shameful to be late on the first day."

Then, facing the students: "Ms. Qiao is a postgraduate graduate of the Mathematics Department of University Z in M ​​Country..."

There were exclamations from under the podium, but Qiao Man was calm and composed. She took out the state of lecturing that she had practiced facing Xia Xuan for more than a month, picked up the chalk from the podium, and introduced herself.

"My name is Qiao Man."

As she spoke, she turned around and wrote slowly in the black class.

There was the sound of running in the corridor outside the classroom, as if there were still girls complaining: "What's wrong with letting the driver drop you off on the first day of school? You're not late after all the fighting!"

Qiao Man's eyes widened little by little, her heart seemed to have been hit hard by something, and her hand holding the chalk began to tremble slightly.

Fortunately, the last stroke of Manzi has come to an end.

She collected herself, began to write a series of numbers under the name, and said, "My mobile phone... If you have any problems at home, you can call me."

A boy below booed: "Where is the teacher's WeChat?"

Qiao Man smiled: "Well, the WeChat ID is the mobile phone number."

The footsteps outside the door were getting closer.

Finally, stop at the gate of Class [-] and Class [-] of Senior High School.

A group of students sighed "It's early", the head teacher's face darkened, and then he heard a report from outside the door.

"Come in! Xia Yan! Qiao Jinsheng!" The head teacher took a deep breath: "Show me what time it is!"

Qiao Jinsheng pursed his lips, and was about to admit his mistake, when he inadvertently looked past the class teacher and saw the person standing in the middle of the podium.

The other party was also looking at her, and the chalk in his hand fell to the ground due to surprise or other reasons, making a crisp sound.

……

At that moment, Qiao Jinsheng felt that his eyes seemed to become a camera.

Zoom in and zoom out.

She saw the man's phoenix eyes, slightly raised eyebrows, and the curvature of the corners of his lips...

Clearly, there is no mistake.

"elder sister!"
