Acai's Sky

Chapter 264 We Are Not the Only Ones Watching the Show

Ah Cai stared at the small figure on the ground with helplessness on her face.

He sighed softly, "Let's send this child back. By the way, leave a note for Madam Ru. We have to get some compensation. After all, we can't work in vain!"

As she spoke, Acai winked mischievously, then nodded her chin slightly in the direction of the little kid, as if suggesting that everyone should pay attention to this little guy.

At this moment, the white light cocoon that originally wrapped the little kid began to flicker with a faint light, as if some power was surging out from inside.

Then, the light cocoon gradually dissipated, revealing the little baby inside who was about to wake up.

Upon seeing this, 朏朏·Tuantuan quickly removed the light cocoon, flew lightly above the table, and gazed down at the tiny creature lying on the ground.

When Ah Er saw this scene, his heart tightened. Without saying a word, he rushed forward, hugged the little kid tightly in his arms, and then rushed away like a gust of wind.

Ah Cai wiped the corner of her mouth nonchalantly, muttering to herself, "I wonder if returning this child will cause another uproar in the Marquis' Mansion?"

Tong Jiawu, who was standing by, quickly handed over a glass of water and consoled him, "It should be okay! As long as we have that note, it shouldn't be a big deal."

Ah Da laughed and interrupted, "That little kid was really smart! He clearly felt someone was around, but he kept his eyes tightly shut, not daring to open them!"

At this moment, Feiyue, the dog that had been lying quietly beside him, suddenly stretched out his cute little paws and scratched his head non-stop, mumbling, "Huh? Why do I seem to smell a familiar spatial aura? Am I mistaken?"

When Acai and others heard this, they all turned around and looked at Feiyue.

I saw Feiyue spinning in circles on the ground alone, muttering to herself, as if she was in some kind of confusion.

She just waved her hand gently, signaling Tong Shiqi to carry her to her side.

Then, she reached out her finger and gently tapped the cute puppy's head, asking with a hint of curiosity, "Little guy, what were you mumbling about just now? Tell me something, and I'll cheer you up!"

The little fellow, Puppy Feiyue, looked bewildered and at a loss at the moment, blinking his big round eyes.

He muttered, "I clearly felt a strong spatial fluctuation just now, but no matter how hard I try, I can't pinpoint the exact location. And as far as I can see, the space around here still seems very stable..."

Hearing this, Tong Jiashan couldn't help but burst out laughing and interrupted, "Oh my, isn't this what's called 'soul transmigration'? You know, wasn't our young lady's reincarnation achieved this way?"

As she spoke, she covered her mouth with her hands and laughed uncontrollably, her eyes sparkling with excitement, as if she found this explanation quite amusing.

Ah Cai also laughed, "Ah Er is really good, saving a little kid and even having his soul transported. From now on, the Marquis' Mansion will be bustling with activity! Do you think he will expose his biological brother as an imposter?"

Ah Da tapped the table with his finger, "..."

"He shouldn't have been sent here from the underworld of this dimension, so is it possible that he traveled through a book?"

Ah San perked up, stood up and ran out, "I'm going to find Ah Er and check on this little kid..."

Tong Jiashan picked up Acai and walked into the house, and the others quickly followed.

Ah Cai looked at the figures standing in the main hall from afar, wondering to herself, "Could those be the people who were rescued? Should I go meet them?"

With a hint of curiosity and doubt, Acai walked into the main hall.

After entering the main hall, Ah Cai sat upright on a high seat, looking down.

Soon, several maids, midwives, coachmen and guards came in one after another and stepped into the hall.

They walked up to Ah Cai respectfully, then knelt down in unison to perform the ritual of kowtow.

One of the maids had tears in her eyes and choked up as she said, "I'm truly ashamed of my young lady! When I gave her the medicine, the dosage was too large, causing her to fall into a deep sleep for five years. All of this is my fault..."

Before she finished speaking, she kowtowed repeatedly, as if she wanted to use this method to express her endless regret and self-blame in her heart.

Seeing this, Ah Cai signaled Tong Shishan to solve the problem.

Tong Shishan quickly spoke to comfort him, "Forget it, forget it. You can't be blamed entirely on the rest of you. After all, you were just following orders. Now that this is the case, just get on with your lives! And look, didn't Second Master successfully rescue that illegitimate young master again today?"

Upon hearing this, everyone present was surprised. They had just witnessed Ah Er running out hurriedly holding a child, but they never expected that the child was actually the second young master of the Marquis's family.

After everyone had greeted them one by one, he slowly left the hall.

At this moment, a puzzled look appeared on Ah Cai's face, and she turned to look at Tong Shishan beside her.

Tong Shishan shrugged slightly and said softly, "These are just the rules I learned from the Marquis' Mansion. Although we saved their lives, don't forget that they still have masters after all."

After saying this, Tong Shishan couldn't help but sigh softly, as if he felt helpless about this reality.

Tong Jiawu nodded slightly, agreeing: "That's right, one of the maids was secretly arranged by the Queen to be in the Marquis' Mansion."

Ah Da then said, "And that guard was the emperor's spy sent to the Marquis' Mansion. Even if we hadn't intervened, their lives would probably not have been in danger."

Tong Shiqi raised the corner of her mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile: "So, in that case, we went to rescue him with good intentions, but we didn't expect to know the details of the matter."

Ah Cai couldn't help but chuckle when she heard this: "From this perspective, are we really living under the constant surveillance of others?"

Ah Da looked embarrassed and explained sheepishly, "To be honest, when we first arrived in the capital, we didn't have many copper coins to spend. In desperation, I had to take out a gold ingot, but I didn't expect that this move would accidentally expose our identities."

He continued, “The general who was in charge of registering us later also tried to get closer to us and took the opportunity to inquire about our situation.

Faced with this situation, there was really no other way, so Ah Er pretended to hold your swaddling clothes and searched everywhere for your origins, taking this opportunity to pass the relevant information to the emperor..."

Having said that, Ah Da sighed softly.

Finally, Ah Cai complained with an unhappy look on her face, "This mansion is already as shabby as a sieve, and yet they still have the mind to come up with these tricks!"

His words were full of dissatisfaction and helplessness with the current situation.
