Chapter 353. The Truth
Bai Suihe thought about it carefully and realized that it really was true. She usually used it to pass the time, reading it as a bedtime story, but she never really paid attention to it. Even if she had a good memory, she was unwilling to waste her brain storing these things.

Now, when she tries to recall those books, it seems she has forgotten most of them.

So this wasn't the storyline she imagined, but her own personal experience.

Bai Suihe rubbed her aching forehead. This was a lot of information, and she needed to calm down.

She handed the baby to Gu Kaiyuan, turned around and went back to the inner room; she needed some peace and quiet.

Gu Kaiyuan was somewhat worried and wanted to follow her in, but Gu Xingyang's voice rang in his mind, "Father, let Mother think it over carefully, she will understand."

Although Gu Xingyang felt a little guilty, she did not regret it. In that instant, she had no choice. She only knew that if she did not bring her mother back, she would lose her mother completely if she fell into the hands of the underworld officials.

She didn't know why she had this premonition, but she knew it would be like this.

Gu Kaiyuan looked at the inner room with some worry, "What if your mother doesn't accept it..."

Gu Xingyang: "Don't worry, trust your mother."

Having been tempered by the realities of society, Mother is not so fragile.

Bai Suihe was completely stunned. She thought it was time travel, but she didn't expect it to be rebirth.

No, it should be time travel and rebirth. This is really going too far.

What merit or ability did she possess to have such an opportunity?

The world she knows in her mind is not the world in the book, but the memory deep in her heart. Just now, when the baby mentioned the underworld messengers, did she forget to drink the Meng Po soup?
I'll take a sip; I wonder what it tastes like?
Bai Suihe coughed, wondering why her thoughts had jumped around so much.

But neither rebirth nor time travel seems unacceptable to her. Anyway, she's already here, and worrying won't change anything.

It's just a pity that all the wealth I left behind there was wasted. After all those years of hard work, it all ended up benefiting my parents and brothers. Oh well, I'll just consider it as repaying the kindness of my parents who raised me all those years.

Then he laughed again, thinking, "What else can I do? I can't exactly rush back..."

When she came out again, Gu Xingyang was already sound asleep in Gu Kaiyuan's arms, with only Gu Kaiyuan looking at her with a worried expression.

Bai Suihe: "Don't worry, I'm fine. The child is asleep. You can put him on the kang (heated brick bed)."

Gu Kaiyuan then noticed that Gu Xingyang had fallen asleep again at some point, and quickly did as Bai Suihe had said, putting her on the kang (a heated brick bed).

"Actually, this isn't really the baby's fault..."

Bai Suihe rolled her eyes at him. "Don't worry, I'm not that irrational. Besides, I should thank her."

If it weren't for the baby's help, she might be in the underworld now, waiting in line to drink Meng Po's soup.

Thinking that the person in front of her was her husband from her previous life, Bai Suihe felt complicated. To say he was innocent didn't seem to make him innocent either.

In his previous life, his inaction led to the deaths of both he and his unborn child. Even if he changes his ways in this life, he cannot undo the mistakes he made in the past.

"So you knew all along? Baby told you before, when? How come I didn't know?" If I remember correctly, Gu Kaiyuan had tried to help cover it up.

Gu Kaiyuan felt a little guilty. Although Bai Suihe had not yet regained her memory, she already knew the truth. "Suihe, the baby told me that you were resting at that time."

"If you hadn't let it slip, how long were you planning to keep it from me?"

Gu Kaiyuan quickly explained, "We didn't mean to hide it from you, we just didn't know how to bring it up." After all, he could bear the tragedy of his previous life alone, and sometimes he was glad that Bai Suihe had forgotten that memory and only regarded him as an observer.

Bai Suihe still wanted to think it over carefully. "Why don't you go out and see what everyone is busy with? I won't stay up with you to celebrate the New Year."

Gu Kaiyuan didn't dare to say anything more at the moment. He went over and helped her make the bed. "Then you should rest well. You are still recuperating. There's no need for you to stay up all night."

After everyone left, Bai Suihe returned to the kang (a heated brick bed). She thought she would have insomnia, but to her surprise, she fell asleep almost immediately after closing her eyes.

But she couldn't sleep soundly; scenes kept flashing through her mind: learning to manage the household from her mother, playing with her two younger brothers, learning embroidery from the seamstress...

When I woke up again, it was already bright outside, but the courtyard was still quiet. Perhaps these people had been on guard all night and hadn't gotten up so early.

Turning my head again, I couldn't see the baby who was sleeping next to me anymore. I guess Gu Kaiyuan took him out to play.

She had just gotten out of bed when Dongmei, who was guarding outside the door, heard the noise and immediately lifted the curtain to come in. "Madam, you're up."

Ever since Bai Suihe gave birth to her baby, everyone in the mansion has changed their way of addressing her.

"Where are the master and young lady?"

"Master took Miss to the backyard to see the greenhouse vegetables. A batch of vegetables was cleared out before the New Year, and today Master ordered a new batch to be planted."

Since they got this greenhouse, they haven't had to worry about having enough vegetables for the New Year.

In addition to the game that the master had brought back from the mountains, the family was completely self-sufficient, except for buying some food and daily necessities.

Bai Suihe also wanted to go and see, but she still had several days before her postpartum period was over, and it was dry and cold outside, so she decided not to go and cause trouble. After washing up and having breakfast, she started memorizing the prescription with Granny Pang again.

Her memory is good now, and with such a good teacher as Granny Pang by her side, she is learning very quickly, which makes Granny Pang, her teacher, feel very accomplished.

“Madam, that’s enough for today,” Granny Pang took the book from her hands. Although she wished she could impart all her knowledge to Bai Suihe, she also knew that Bai Suihe was still in her postpartum period. “Have a bowl of bird’s nest soup first, and then get some rest.”

When it comes to recuperation, Bai Suihe is quite compliant, after all, she has no experience at all, so of course she has to listen to the elders' advice.

After she finished drinking the bird's nest soup, Granny Pang brought up a different topic, saying, "Lord Gu and the eldest son of the Gu family left early this morning."

"So it didn't escalate into a commotion?"

He only took the first wife with him when he left. Gu Kaichen and his second wife just accepted it like that?
"There was no commotion, but I heard there was a commotion last night."

"Master Gu is still in charge now, so he probably can't cause any trouble even if he wanted to."

Granny Pang had no good impression of the Gu family. "In fact, members of the Gu clan blocked the carriage and wouldn't let them leave."

Bai Suihe smiled and said, "I'm afraid they couldn't stop them."

Granny Pang gave a thumbs up, "Madam, you are truly insightful. The people who came to pick up Master Gu were no pushovers. They directly whipped and injured several people before driving away in their carriage."

"These people have been tricked by Gu Baijiang again," Bai Suihe said with some regret about the resources they had invested. The Gu clan has gotten what they wanted, and she hoped they would never regret it later.

But even if you regret it, there's no going back.
