The Rebirth of the Empress

Gui Momo

When Shen Miao came out of the academy and returned to the Shen residence, the sky was rather dark.

Shen Yue and Shen Qing still had not returned with him and Shen Miao could not be bothered to care for them. Grand Madam Shen had already left to rest so she returned to the Western courtyard.

Just as she reached the West courtyard, a voice with warmth sounded, “Young Miss finally returned. This old servant heard that Young Miss had fallen into the water and was very worried. Seeing Young Miss is fine, this one's heart can finally calm down.”

Turning his head to the side, he saw a middle-aged woman walking over. This woman was around forty years old with a somewhat plump stature, somewhat dark complexion and wearing a green dress. Although it looks ordinary, the materials used are also good. There was only a thick silver bracelet on his wrist as his face smiled.

"Momo Gui." Shen Miao replied faintly.

The woman does not think that she made a mistake and continues to preach, “This old servant wants to come early but because Ran-er is sick. After much flipping through and seeing no other choice, one simply handed Ran-er over to his mother and returned to the residence first. Seeing Young Miss is fine, then one's heart can be calm.”

The main point of these words was to say that Shen Miao's position in his heart was more important than that of his own grandson. If it was ordinary, after listening to these words, Shen Miao would be deeply moved and give Gui Momo some taels to get a doctor for her grandson.

But after his rebirth, Shen Miao almost laughed at himself upon seeing the woman in front of him. At first how blind was he to think that such a person was a loyal servant?

Not long after Shen Furen gave birth to Shen Miao, she set out with Shen Xin and because Shen Miao was too young and could not stand the difficulty of traveling, she said, Shen Furen could only reluctantly leave it at the Shen residence. Shen Furen hired a wet nurse for him who was the current Gui Momo. Gui Momo was born on a farm in their plantation and at first Shen Furen saw that he was diligent and honest and afterwards he saw Gui Momo treating Shen Miao very well, he then felt confident to place her by Shen Miao's side as a training Momo.

But in this world, people will change.

There were already very few people in the Western courtyard in the Shen family and the ones who did the shots were the other two households and Old Shen Furen in the Eastern courtyard. Guo Momo had originally treated Shen Miao honestly but after some time, he saw the situation of strength clearly and did not hesitate to veer to Old Shen Furen in the Eastern courtyard. With the flattery character of Gui Momo, Gui Momo has been fanning the flames when she was initially determined to marry Fu Xiu Yi.

But the most disgusting thing was that at first when Grand Madam Shen brought her distant granddaughter to seek refuge with the Shen family, the granddaughter accused Eldest Brother, the, Shen Qiu for ruining his innocence and insisted on asking Eldest Brother to take responsibility. He ended up becoming his brother-in-law and made a mess in Eldest Brother's backyard. And Gui Momo was a witness to the humiliation Shen Qiu had done to his grandson.

Thinking about it now, it was all just a bad show.

Once unfaithful, one cannot be used a hundred times. Especially with such a person Gui Momo, a hundred times unfaithful, he naturally had to clear things up. For such a dog to run to another person, it is better to be killed than to continue to be kept.

Gui Momo waited for a long time but did not hear Shen Miao give any gifts and the loving expression she maintained on her face became stiff. He could not help but look up to see Shen Miao but just see Shen Miao looking at him indifferently as if it was nothing special.

His heart suddenly let out a 'wang dang' sound'. He did not know why but he suddenly felt guilty.

Gu Yu snorted softly and looked at Gui Momo while sneering. She had always looked down on Gui Momo for being a flattering vile person who relied on her as Young Miss' wet nurse and dumped her weight in the Western courtyard. But her own Young Miss had previously been persuaded by this Gui Momo so well that she listened to Gui Momo's many words and made the relationships of many people in the Western courtyard tense.

That's good now. After Young Miss woke up from falling into the water, it seemed that she had seen many things clearly and with Gui Momo's warm attitude, it would bring Gu Yu a great sense of comfort.

Gui Momo continued to smile stiffly as he did not know why Shen Miao was treating him with such a cold demeanor today. Thinking that Shen Miao was unhappy because of the problem of falling into the water and smiling as she comforted, “This servant will give advice to Young Miss. One should not be too sad and protecting his health is important. Young Miss is as pretty as a flower and His Highness Prince Ding must have liked her. There will always be days.” He will usually say pleasant words and will usually catch what Shen Miao likes to get his help. But when these words were spoken today, he saw Shen Miao's face change.

“For Momo to say such words, is it to stain my innocence?” Shen Miao coldly said, “Although father and mother are currently not in the General's residence, I am Young Miss Di from the General's residence and also the Western Courtyard's mistress. For the reputation of one's innocence, with what Momo said, what was deliberately trapped in the pit of fire and water?”

Gui Momo was startled for a moment and said involuntarily, “How can Young Miss say that? This old servant said it for your sake.”.

"So this says it's my fault?" Shen Miao coldly laughed, “This is also good. Why not understand it from Old Madam if the innocence of a princess from the General's residence is as valuable as cabbage? Even cabbage is worth a few coins. Gui Momo for you to be honest, I wanted to ask if I was too shameless. ”

Perhaps he did not expect that Shen Miao would seize the momentum and bring her a bad mood. Gui Momo was already used to being a tyrant in the Western courtyard and normally he could control Shen Miao very well but today to drop the peg in front of Gu Yu and Jing Zhe, he was able to control Shen Miao very well, he was a bit angry and could not help but say, “The words of Young Miss made this slave look evil. This old ointment had been followed by the Young Miss' side for ten years. How would Young Miss think that this old maid would intentionally hurt others?”

"Bad!" Jing Zhe shouted loudly. "Young Miss is her mistress, how dare Gui Momo talk to Young Miss like that?"

Gui Momo was shocked and annoyed because he was too agitated just now. But those words were like gushing water and could not be taken back and there were so many servants around who witnessed the commotion. He could only treat Shen Miao as a young girl who was easily persuaded and quickly said in a soft voice, “Young Miss, this old maid really feels depressed for Young Miss. This old servant has been following Young Miss for many years and has taken Young Miss as a child herself. What this old maid said is not true and Young Miss should not be angry and harm the body.”

Take him as his own son? Shen Miao sneered in his heart. He felt that this Gui Momo was a genius. Normally he would get a lot of gold from here but treat the Eastern courtyard as an official master. In the end he made his Eldest Brother take a huge loss. If it was his previous life, a servant like this was in the Palace, he would ask someone to beat him up and kill him. But now... Since Gui Momo could bear to join the eastern courtyard, how about using his hands to let the eastern courtyard suffer a huge loss?

He raised his eyebrows as he spoke in a light tone, "Since Gui Momo knows, then only punish with a salary of three months."

Gui Momo's facial expression stiffened as a smile appeared on Shen Miao's lips.

What will Gui Momo do when there is no more money?

Naturally pledging his loyalty to the Eastern courtyard.
