章節 1: Chapter 1: The Misery of Time Travel

That night, the air was cool as water, and shadows slanted sparsely.

In an inconspicuous house in the Capital of the Zhou Dynasty, a woman with disheveled hair lay sprawled on the bed in the shape of a "big character," motionless for a long time.

Time seemed to stand still, with silence all around.

Just when everyone thought she would stay like this, until the end of time, she suddenly moved.

Her right hand slowly moved to her waist and felt around.

Then, with a bizarre angle, she looked up at the sky and slowly raised her left hand.

With force, she raised her middle finger...

"Dammit, Heavenly Father, you're so not cool. You could smuggle over my scalpel and silver needles, but why didn't you bring my Lotus sports car? It was Grandpa's birthday gift for my twenty-ninth birthday, and I liked it a lot!"

No one answered her...

Gu Changsheng dejectedly withdrew her hand, covering her face with both hands.

She had been screwed over by Heavenly Father; all she did was give Chief of Staff Liu's precious son a little trimming, not harming heaven nor reason, so how did she end up banished to this ancient time where the land was barren and no birds would even poop?

Sorrowfully turning her face, she surveyed her surroundings: the dilapidated house, the mud plaster on the walls peeling and mottled, scattered with a couple of wooden benches, one even with a lame leg...

With a melancholic sigh, Gu Changsheng had to face a few facts:

First, she had traveled through time, to an unknown dynasty.

Second, she had a son, about to be four.

Third, she had been divorced, swept out the door as an Abandoned Wife.

Fourth, she was very poor.

The fact that she had traveled through time was indisputable. She could barely accept the first three facts; having a son meant having someone for old age, and not having to engage in cut-throat palace intrigue was also a lucky thing. But it was the last fact that nearly drove her mad.

Who was Gu Changsheng? Born under the Red Flag, raised in the military, a red third-generation through and through! Had she ever experienced poverty? Not once! She was destined from birth to stand at the pinnacle of the Pyramid, enjoying unparalleled honor and luxury.

She behaved capriciously without parallel in this world, imperious and unrivaled!

The only hardships she ever experienced were the relentless training of the long military journey and the brutal killings on the battlefield.

She was the youngest Major General of the Celestial Empire, the sole female military doctor from the elite special forces unit 791 Brigade, proving by her own strength that she had the capital to be imperious and willful.

She had a grandpa who loved and spoiled her to the extreme, evoking both admiration and envy from others!

But now, all of these were no longer.

After causing trouble, she fled, and on her way across the Capital's overpass she encountered a road collapse, and then she ended up here, impoverished and driven out of her home with her son as a Divorced Woman!

Fate is so miraculous, and Heavenly Father is such a troll!

It must have been her awakening posture that was incorrect; otherwise, how could time travel be such a scam when so many people flock to it?

Where was the promised protagonist's halo? The luxurious clothes, the countless handsome men?

Aren't those how time-travel scripts are supposed to go? Why did it all become so discordant when it came to her?

Instead of turning into a beauty, she turned into a child's mother; arriving not only without a husband but also getting divorced, and on top of that, she was so poor she had nothing but her flesh—this was just... too much of a troll!

"Creak..."

The sound of the door opening interrupted Gu Changsheng's self-pity. She turned her head to look at the rickety pair of door panels, vaguely noticing several large holes leaking light, wondering if they might collapse.

"Miss, you really should eat something." A maid dressed in a coarse linen skirt wobbled toward the bedside with a pitch-black porcelain bowl, her face filled with worry.

"Cui Hua?" Such an eternally old-fashioned name almost made Gu Changsheng want to shout: "Cui Hua, bring on the pickled vegetables!"

The maid named Cui Hua nodded, her slightly emaciated figure dragging a lame leg, then knelt down before Gu Changsheng with a face full of misery and tear-filled eyes, "Miss, I know you feel wronged, but think of the late Old Grand Master. He always hoped for your well-being, how can you keep torturing yourself like this..."

Gu Changsheng, feeling a headache coming on, rubbed her forehead. The slave mentality education of ancient times was great, wasn't it? They were always quick to kneel; it really made her worry about Cui Hua's knees.

"Get up, I'll eat, just get up." Gu Changsheng conceded, pulling on an oversized coarse robe as she got down from the bed and pulled Cui Hua to her feet.

She took the bowl, and immediately jumped as it burned her, hastily setting it down on the stool at the side of the bed, blowing on her hands and scratching her ears, "Cui Hua, it's so hot, why didn't you wait for it to cool before bringing it over?"

"It's my fault, I'm to blame, my legs are not good, and I was afraid it would cool down if I delayed." Cui Hua, who had just risen, looked terrified and was about to kneel again.

Gu Changsheng couldn't bother warming her hands anymore, hastily stepping forward to support her sinking body and checking her hands, although they were calloused, they were still burnt red.

"Cui Hua, don't call me Miss anymore, I am already a mother. If you continue to call me Miss, I am afraid it's inappropriate," Gu Changsheng said, while blowing on her hands. The crucial point was that every time she called her Miss, it reminded her of a modern profession.

"Yes, Madam." This time Cui Hua was obedient, and since she couldn't withdraw her hand from Madam, she simply bent her body in a respectful gesture.

"Cui Hua, may I call you Xiao Cui from now on?" Cui Hua's name was just too catchy, making her feel a bit confused.

"Maid Xiao Cui, thanks to Madam for the name."

When Gu Changsheng saw her lift her skirt as if to kneel, she quickly held her up, sternly advising, "Xiao Cui, you haven't served by my side before, so you may not know, but your mistress is not a stickler for formalities. Even though I've forgotten everything that happened in the past, you shouldn't bother me with these troublesome customs. We're already so fallen. If you keep kneeling at every turn, let me tell you, even if you wear through the ground with your kneeling, they won't treat me as a real noble."

At the end, Gu Changsheng summarized, "Doing such exhausting and thankless tasks, do less of them in the future, no more kneeling."

Xiao Cui nodded, stepping back to keep Gu Changsheng from getting any closer, "Madam is right."

"Madam, please drink the porridge now before it gets cold."

Gu Changsheng frowned at the porridge brought in front of her, a murky bowl, unclear of what it was made, she hesitated to take a bite.

Seeing Xiao Cui anxiously watching, holding her breath, she swallowed the porridge in one gulp.

Damn, that was disgusting!

Life had become unbearable!

"Xiao Cui, what should we plan for our future?" If she didn't know, she should ask, as she urgently needed to see some hope for life.

"The dowry wasn't much, and we left it all at Li Mansion, we can return to our hometown in Liuzhou," Xiao Cui thought for a moment, answering truthfully.

"Is there a place for us to live peacefully and establish ourselves in our hometown in Liuzhou?" Gu Changsheng got interested.

"Yes, there's a medical hall in Liuzhou which is the foundation of the Gu family. Madam didn't bring it as a dowry, just left Old Man Song in charge. The property deed was also left in his care," Xiao Cui thought some more before continuing, "Old Man Song has been with the Old Grand Master since childhood, saw Madam grow up, and is most loyal."

"Haha... I'm not so foolish as to not have a backup plan," Gu Changsheng laughed, her tone becoming a bit less careful.

Xiao Cui was startled, Madam...

"Ahem..." Gu Changsheng quickly coughed to cover up the slip. Ancient people spoke so elegantly and formally, too vexing! "Xiao Cui, let's not speak so formally in the future. Given our current status, we should speak more like ordinary folks, so that people don't think we're putting on airs."

"Madam is noble by nature," Xiao Cui retorted unusually, his face serious, Madam would always be his Madam.

"Xiao Cui, a plucked phoenix isn't as good as a chicken, understand?" If she kept acting like a narcissus, she'd get internally injured sooner or later.

Xiao Cui: "..."

Watching Xiao Cui, who was so clever and lovely, being baffled by her own teasing, Gu Changsheng was quite amused, smiling as she patted her face, "Xiao Cui, you have fine features. Give it some time, and you'll definitely be a beauty, better than your mistress here."

Gu Changsheng clenched her fist; how should she describe her current looks? Ah, that's it, two words: Eco-friendly!

Her appearance was ordinary, only a pair of large Red Phoenix Eyes stood out. She wasn't tall, and her body was not lacking in any area that should be well-endowed. Going out was very safe, definitely conducive to environmental harmony.

Xiao Cui blushed from Gu Changsheng's teasing, hurriedly taking another step back.

"Oops! Wait, did you just say a medical hall? There's a medical hall in Liuzhou that belongs to my family, did you get that right?" Gu Changsheng finally remembered something she had overlooked, and she asked excitedly.

"Yes, Madam's ancestors were physicians, and it was only because the Old Grand Master once did a favor for Li Mansion that they reluctantly took Madam in," Xiao Cui confirmed, forgetting the past might be for the best, so Madam wouldn't be sad anymore.

"Haha..." What is this, like father, like son? Her name was still Gu Changsheng, her ancestors were physicians! In modern times, she started with traditional Chinese medicine and then studied Western medicine abroad at the Imperial Medical College after learning from Yhan's. With such a family background, she needn't worry about explaining her medical skills, indeed life still had hope!

Xiao Cui watched Madam laughing without restraint, saying nothing with her head lowered; this was good, wasn't it?

"Right, Xiao Cui, didn't you say I had a son? Where is he? How come I haven't seen him?" Gu Changsheng remembered something else and looked at Xiao Cui.

Xiao Cui's eyes dodged, and she stammered, "Madam has always disliked... disliked having the Young Master close by, the maid... the maid put him in the maid's room."

"Me? Dislike my son?" Gu Changsheng couldn't believe it, how could that be? What mother wouldn't like her own son, especially when she herself loved children!

"Yes, everyone in Li Mansion says the Young Master is an evildoer and a curse, including... including Madam too..." Xiao Cui didn't know how to put it, only looking at Gu Changsheng, "Madam, have you really forgotten everything? Can't you remember anything at all?"

"I can't remember." Could her son be disabled? That would be a little troublesome, but as his mother, she ought to see him anyway.

"Madam, the Young Master is not an evildoer or a curse, he is obedient, well-behaved, and sensible. The maid was previously not permitted near Madam to serve, otherwise, these words would have been spoken earlier," Xiao Cui knelt down with a thud, her face filled with anxious explanations.

"Get up, get up, go and bring my son to me. Having walked through Yama Raja's Palace and come back only to earn such a son, I am not satisfied without taking a look at him." She pulled Xiao Cui up and pushed her out a couple of steps, indicating her to hurry.

Her heart was still anxious; what on earth was going on? How had her son been regarded as an evildoer?
