Your Highness, You Are Reborn - C16

In the early morning of the next day, when Xiao Yumo had just gotten up, she heard a soft and sticky voice from the corner.

“Elder sister.”

“Yi Ran, why are you here?”

As he said this, he extended his two small hands hesitantly, and within his hands was a newly weaved hay bird. Although the workmanship was rough, the visible wound on the boy’s hand already showed the depth of his efforts.

Xiao Yi Ran brought the little bird before Xiao Yumo’s eyes, her eyes that were filled with age wings blinking, “This, this was made by Yi Ran just now.”

Her small body and her appearance made Xiao Yumo’s nose sour, “For me?”

“Yes.”

Hearing this, Xiao Yi Ran’s eyes lit up, and heavily nodded his head. His lips that had been tightly pursed just now also finally loosened up.

Xiao Yumo carefully took the bird and smiled, “I like it, thank you Yi Ran.”

As they talked, Xiao Yumo held Xiao Yi Ran’s small hand and led him into the pavilion.

“Tell the kitchen to prepare more food and bring it over.”

“Yes.” The red cotton walked away after hearing what was said, leaving the two of them with this place.

This person, Xiao Yi Ran, was the only warm sensation on Xiao Yumo’s side in her previous life. When everyone in the Xiao family wanted to put her to death, only this child who had lived in the side yard since he was young and no one cared about him would be willing to give her any warmth.

And Xiao Yi Ran, as a concubine, would probably not even have the same status as a servant in the entire The Prime Minister’s Mansion.

Perhaps it was because no one had been so patient with him before, but a blush appeared on Xiao Yi Ran’s small face.

“Why did you give it to me?” Xiao Yumo asked in a gentle voice.

“Because …” As if he had thought of something, a bit of a smile emerged on Xiao Yi Ran’s face, as he said extremely bashfully, “Because it happened the last time.”

Last time?

Xiao Yumo suddenly remembered, and could not help but pull the frail child into his arms.

Last time, he had met Xiao Yi Ran who had been bullied by a servant in the garden. He had only helped his on the way, but she did not expect him to remember it until now.

While they were talking, Hongmian came forward with a plate of food.

“Yi Ran, is there anything you like to eat?” Xiao Yumo smiled, and handed over a pair of bamboo chopsticks.

And at this moment, the smile on the woman’s face vanished and was replaced with an endless fierce expression.

She pulled on Xiao Yi Ran’s arm, and with a swift movement, she brushed up her sleeves and pouted her red lips into a line, “Did they bully you again?”

The red cotton answered and took a step forward. After clearly seeing the shape of Xiao Yi Ran’s arm, he couldn’t help but inhale a breath of cold air.

On his thin arms, there was a patch of green and purple. He couldn’t find even the slightest bit of good land. How could this be something a child should be able to bear?

After hearing what he had to say, Xiao Yumo’s brows did not loosen up, but instead wrinkled even more.

“Follow me.” She was silent for a moment, then directly brought Xiao Yi Ran towards the side yard, her heart aching.

The place Xiao Yi Ran lived in was the westernmost area of Prime Minister’s Palace, it wasn’t even comparable to a servant’s residence, and was extremely dilapidated.

In front of side yard, the ground was covered with fallen leaves, as if this place was completely different from the Prime Minister’s Palace.

“Elder sister, Yi Ran is fine.”

Along the way, Xiao Yi Ran tightly gripped onto Xiao Yumo’s sleeve, he was so sensible that it would cause one to be moved.

Xiao Yumo was currently on the verge of exploding, her eyes filled with anger, “Hong Mian, open the door.”

With a crunch, the door was pushed open and dust fell.

What followed was the sound of a woman cursing.

“You little b * tch, you actually dare to run out in broad daylight? Watch me break your dog legs!”

The old woman aggressively walked over, and the flesh on her face was still constantly trembling. It was obvious that this kind of scene had happened more than once.

When Xiao Yi Ran heard this, his body first shrunk, then, he loosened his grip on Xiao Yumo’s sleeve. “Elder sister, I’m fine, hurry up and leave.”

As he spoke, he tried to use his small body to block the woman’s path, a resolute expression on his young face.

“Elder sister? Where did you come from, sister?! Get the hell in here right now! ”

When the old woman heard the sound, she became even angrier. First Lady had instructed her long ago to take good care of this lowly bastard. If she appeared at a place beside the manor, the one who would suffer would be her.

After not seeing Xiao Yi Ran’s figure for a long time, the wife picked up the wooden stick at the side and kicked the door open. Seeing that Xiao Yi Ran was about to hit him with the wooden stick, she did not see the person behind Xiao Yi Ran at all.

Xiao Yi Ran closed his eyes and his small hands curled up in fear, causing Hong Mian’s heart to clench. He could not help but feel a sense of pity.

“Mo Lian!”

Xiao Yumo tilted her head slightly, staring at the reckless woman with a smile that was not a smile.

The black shadow swayed, and before the old woman could even see clearly who the person in front of her was, she felt a sharp pain from the arm she was holding the wooden stick with, followed by a powerful force from behind her, causing her to stagger and fall to the ground.

Xiao Yumo took a step forward, and personally helped Xiao Yi Ran up while patting the dust off his clothes.

“Ouch.” The old woman cried out in pain, then cursed, “Where did this blind man come from?!” Look clearly, I am under First Lady’s command, get lost! ”

Just as the wife supported herself up, she caught sight of Xiao Yumo’s emotionless eyes and subconsciously took a step back, “Second Miss?”

“A mere servant dares to act so arrogantly in front of my Prime Minister’s Palace, offending anyone below him?!” Xiao Yumo said harshly, and could only wish that he had come earlier.

“Second Miss, this old servant is from First Lady. Furthermore, the matter here shouldn’t even be left to the Second Miss to meddle in, right? ”

She had followed Shen Yingluo around the entire time, and was accustomed to putting on airs at home.

Xiao Yumo licked his lips and ignored them, directly stepping into the side yard and entering a room, she looked around.

“Miss, how is this a human house!” Hongmian, who was beside the two of them, couldn’t help but ask.

In the small room, there was a wooden table and a straw mat; it was incomparably desolate.

The old woman glared at the two angrily and quickly walked over, “Second Miss is better off going back and forth from somewhere, this is not the place Second Miss should be!”

“Elder sister, I’m fine.”
