Chapter 631: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 631: Growing Vegetables and Cultivating Helpers (1)
The snowball hadn’t expected its words to make Mo Yan so anxious and quickly tried to comfort her. “Don’t worry, Yan Yan. With you here, and with that nation’s heir who’s not going to die anytime soon, Xiao Ruiyuan won’t meet a similar crisis. You two will definitely…”
At this point, the snowball abruptly stopped, clearly hinting at the “secrets of heaven and earth” that it couldn’t reveal.
Mo Yan didn’t notice the unfinished sentence. Hearing that Xiao Ruiyuan wouldn’t face similar crises again eased her fears somewhat.
Seeing her mood improve, the snowball let out a long sigh of relief and tried to change the topic, seeking some credit. “Yan Yan, would you like to know why you ended up here?”
Mo Yan’s attention was indeed captured by the question, and she asked curiously, “Isn’t it because my soul attached itself to Mo Yan’s body in this timeline after I died in my previous life?”
The snowball couldn’t hold back and rolled its eyes dramatically. “Do you think attaching a soul is as simple as eating and drinking? If it weren’t for me, you would have dispersed your soul at the age of ten, and you wouldn’t have lived to twenty-five to be blown up and reincarnate!”
“Well, I really should thank you for that!” Mo Yan nodded. Had her grandmother not used the ancient jade to anchor her soul when she was ten, her soul might have indeed dispersed, as the snowball said.
This thought made her reflect on her previous life, where her family had treated her so well. Although her current family was also very kind, she always felt uneasy, as if she had stolen this happiness, which left her with a sense of guilt and melancholy.
The snowball, sensing Mo Yan’s troubled thoughts, jumped around in her arms to draw her attention back. It said something that made Mo Yan even more incredulous than learning about the existence of heavenly rules.
“Are you saying... the soul of the original owner of this body is still here, and I’m sharing this body with her?” Mo Yan stared wide-eyed at the snowball, unable to believe it. If that were the case, why had she never felt the original owner’s presence?
The snowball’s eyes widened even more than Mo Yan’s, as if looking at a fool. “You were originally one entity. An accident caused the separation of souls, with one soul and three souls fragments going into your previous body, while the remaining two souls and four fragments went into this body. Now that one soul and three fragments have returned, she is you, and you are her. How can you say you’re sharing a body?”
Mo Yan frowned, believing the snowball’s words. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have frequently fallen into unexplainable comas in her previous life, and later needed the ancient jade to stabilize her soul. This seemed to be a sign of incomplete soul fragments wanting to disperse.
After reincarnating into this body, she inherited the original owner’s complete memories. Despite initial unfamiliarity, she quickly regarded her father and siblings as real family, probably sensing subconsciously that they were her loved ones. Even though she accepted this belief, she still couldn’t fully come to terms with it in a short period.
The snowball, perceptive as ever, noticed her inner turmoil and reassured her, “Isn’t it great? The family in this life is your real family, so you shouldn’t feel guilty or think you’ve stolen someone else’s happiness!”
However, mentioning this only deepened Mo Yan’s sadness. Tears welled up in her eyes as she murmured, “Even if I can live comfortably in this body, how do I repay my previous family? They raised me for over twenty years and truly cared for me. Yet, I can only stay here forever and never fulfill my filial duties to them, leaving them to endure the pain of losing a loved one!”
Even though she was surrounded by loving family in this life and lived a happy life, this sense of regret would always linger with her.
