Chapter 793: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 793: The Cause of Rebirth (2)
Whenever Mo Yan missed her family from her past life, she couldn't help but curse the heavens in her heart. But whenever she thought about how, if she hadn’t come to this time and space, her loving father, adorable and understanding younger siblings, the man she liked, and the entire Li family would have all perished, her heart filled with gratitude. However, the longing for her family from her past life only grew stronger with each passing day.
Additionally, from some of Xue Tuanzi's casual remarks, she always felt that the misfortunes she had feared weren't just her imagination; they were real and could actually happen. Those things were like a thorn, lodged in her heart, making her feel deeply uncomfortable.
After a moment's hesitation, Xue Tuanzi finally revealed some things she had previously kept hidden. "Yan Yan, the Mo family bloodline is vast, and there are many who can open the space, but do you know why I chose you?"
Mo Yan shook her head in confusion.
Xue Tuanzi's already mature voice grew even more solemn. "You possess the merits of nine lifetimes; your fate was originally one of complete blessings, but your soul is unstable, always at risk of dispersing! The moment your grandmother put the pendant on your neck, I performed a divination for you, but I couldn’t find any answers… Later, there was that terrifying explosion. With the level of space and my abilities, I shouldn’t have been able to break through the chaotic time and space and bring you here, yet somehow, I succeeded! I thought it was just good luck, but later I realized it wasn’t like that… When I regained my consciousness, I performed the divination for you again, but still couldn’t find any answers. So, I turned to divining the fate of your father, your younger siblings, and everyone who had appeared in your life. Through their fate trajectories, I finally realized that this life is your first, the first time you have gathered and become a living being!"
Mo Yan’s first life had been born into a poor farming family, losing her mother at a young age. She struggled to raise her younger siblings, only to face a natural and man-made disaster. During the escape, she gave her food to her younger siblings, fainting from hunger. In the end, her father and siblings tried to find food for her but encountered a group of cannibalistic refugees…
Unconscious, Mo Yan was awakened by the scavenging of vultures. With a fierce determination, she drove the vultures away and stumbled to find her father and siblings, only to witness the tragic deaths of her three closest family members.
Had it not been for Xiao Ruiyuan, who was southward to quell a rebellion and happened to pass by, saving Mo Yan’s life, she would have ended up as food for those refugees.
Mo Yan couldn’t have accompanied Xiao Ruiyuan south to the capital. Instead, she was taken in by a farming couple, elderly and childless, who treated her like a granddaughter. But just two years later, the elderly couple both passed away, and Mo Yan was driven out of the village by their relatives. When she went to the city to make a living, she was abducted by human traffickers and brought to the capital.
Her luck was good, as before she could be sold, the human traffickers were reported, and the authorities captured them all.
Once freed, Mo Yan lived as a beggar for a few days, before a fateful encounter with the renowned Physician Du, who took her into his medical clinic as an apprentice.
With a scholar father, Mo Yan had learned to read and write at a young age. Seeing her frequently sneaking glances at the medical books and showing an aptitude for the field, Physician Du, moved by her talent, tested her and then took her as a disciple.
After twenty years of dedicated study, Mo Yan became the most skilled female physician in the capital. Many women from prominent families would request her services whenever they fell ill.
With her exquisite medical skills and exceptional character, Mo Yan successfully managed Physician Du’s clinic, but during these two decades, the Da Chu Dynasty had been in turmoil, with internal relatives plotting to seize the throne and external enemies encroaching from all sides.
