Currently, I'm in the library after talking to this body's father. When there's nothing in the account that I wanted to know I asked some questions to the maid that is assigned to me. The maid's name is Ying.
I have learned from Ying that this family is not from a normal lineage.
This indeed once belongs to those noble families that surround this land. This land is the Zhou empire and it's in one of the ten continents that consist in this world. The continent where I am is called the Jian continent.
This body's grandf… I mean my grandfather is once the greatest general, but he gave up his position when he fell in love with a slave from the enemy country and that slave turns out to be the only princess of that country. Hmm, I wonder what country? There are so many countries that were taken over by this one. Maybe one of those small countries but…
Why did it even need to make him demote from his great position?
I wonder what's behind my grandmother's lineage?
Oh, I forgot to mention that this world is indeed fantasy-like. What a clique. I wonder if it's Xianxia or Wuxia though that never really matter.
"Ya... yang jie jie ma… may I come in?" I was taken out of my trance because of the voice of my brother.
"You may" When he heard my response I heard the door opening very lightly because of the silent squeak. When I look at the door I found my little brother peeping in a very light opening of the door which made me frown.
"What are you doing there Min er come in already" He jolted which made the door open wide.
"Ye… yes, Jie Jie" I'm really curious how the original owner of this body treat this little boy.
"J… jie jie mother said that the dinner is ready" Oh it's already evening I have been very busy reading books and asking Ying that I even forgot what time is it.
"Da Xiaojie Nu Cai will clean the library for you, for now, Da Xiaojie just needs to follow young Master" I nod at her and immediately let my brother lead the way.
Come to think of it that maid somehow feels odd. From what I've heard she's with me when I drowned but why does she immediately get help and besides mother said that she is by my side from the all-time. Hmm does this body's owner really committed suicide? I have been thinking that I know the personalities of the spoiled child since they cannot have something they will need to bluff so that their wish will come true but this time the owner did commit suicide yet…
Hmm. I see, I just smirked at the sudden realization. Seems like this household is full of snakes beside that maid's reaction there is something that she's still hiding. It seems like there's still a big secret behind this.
This is quite interesting.
I stopped walking when Min er stopped in front of a big door. He opened it and then I saw the face of my kind mother and father smiling to me with warmth and gentle and also there are the conspicuous relatives. Why do I have to stay in the same room with them I can feel their animosity despite their wide smiles.
I was about to greet them but before I do that mother immediately stopped me.
"My Yang er you can just sit here there's no need for you to greet us just sit here just like how you used to be." Hmm, so this body's owner is quite bold. I can see the so-called relatives grit their teeth in anger.
I just heed her order so that I won't look suspicious to the so-called relatives.
"Min er too, sit beside your jie jie" My mother also made Min er sit which he immediately followed me behind, and then he sat beside me. I gave him a smile but I wonder if it's too stiff because he suddenly looked away.
Min er, you know this big sister is very troubled because of your attitude towards me even though I found you crying and worried on the first day of our encounter.
"Haha Yang doesn't remember this anymore but Min is on guard because you will always bully him that's why he's wary" I looked at mother who said those words, and she looks like she's having fun.
"Mo… mother don't let Jie Jie remember what if she bullies me again" He finally looked at my way no, to put it bluntly, he looked at mother with a very troubled face. So he is indeed wary no wonder he's trying his hard to keep distance though I don't really what the owner did to this little I can see that he is very traumatized.
"*Cough* family head I think it's time to talk about the matters of Yang er" All of our attention turns to the person who spoke just now.
When looking at the direction I found a very old man in a green robe with long white beard and hair.
"Jie Jie he is great-uncle Liang Zhao he is the brother of our grandfather" This kind is very convenient I didn't even have the time to ask myself he immediately answered.
When he realized that he's close to me he backed away immediately.
I don't know if it's stiff again but I smiled at him and look at the person whose name is Zhao.
Hmm. Come to think of it why do they still keep staying in this household even though they all have their own families. Hmm I wonder if there's a big money hidden in this place though it is just a hypothesis since I have always encountered those kinds of families who relied on their relatives that is financially stable.
A Suivre…
