Sweet Garden Sands

Chapter 1 An Yuan Kingdom

Anyuan State, the 32nd year of the prosperous Yuan Dynasty, Shuihe Village, Xiangsang Town, Jinsi County

The morning breeze in early February was still cool, the wind was blowing softly, and the green mulberry branches in the mulberry fields danced leisurely with the wind. Occasionally, there were a few sparrows chirping in the distance, giving water to the grass in advance. The villagers in the village are celebrating, because their harvest season is coming again.

The sky is just turning gray, and the villagers of Shuihe Village can be seen busy on the field trails or in the mulberry garden. They are either picking mulberry leaves or tidying up the mulberry fields. No one will be lazy at this time.

Yang Sirui was woken up by the crowing of roosters in the village. She was used to sitting up and stretching before she opened her eyes.

Yang Sirui frowned, she had a very long and weird dream, the scene in the dream was real and clear, what impressed her the most was a pair of cold and disdainful eagle eyes.

"Xue'er—" Accompanied by a rush of footsteps, a crying female voice sounded at the door of the house.

Yang Sirui subconsciously opened her eyes and looked towards the door. An eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl with a bun was walking towards the bed in surprise and joy.

This girl looks familiar!

Looking at this girl from top to bottom in the makeup that only ancient women had, Yang Sirui was a little dazed, she still hasn't woken up from her dream?

"Xue'er, are you feeling better?" Ke Hanchun wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, and looked at his sister worriedly.

Yang Sirui stared blankly at the eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl in front of her, unable to tell whether it was reality or a dream.

"Xue'er, didn't dad say that your fever is gone?" Seeing his sister's blank face, Ke Hanchun picked up his heart that had just let go, reached out his hand to her forehead, and muttered in wonder: "The fever is gone!" .”

This touch was so real, Yang Sirui was even more puzzled.

"Xue'er, you have been in a coma for a few days, you must be starving to lose your spirit!" Without waiting for Yang Sirui's answer, Ke Hanchun analyzed Yang Sirui's abnormality: "It's okay, sister brought some eggs over, Now I'll make you steamed eggs."

Before Yang Sirui could react, Ke Hanchun had already left in a hurry.

That girl called herself "Xue'er" just now?Also calling herself sister?
Suddenly, Yang Sirui's eyes widened—

Shouldn't she be in her hometown at the moment?

Yang Sirui remembered that she went back to her hometown to pay homage to her adoptive parents. Because of the hot weather, she simply went to the reservoir to go swimming after the worship. Unexpectedly, as soon as she swam deep, her feet cramped and she drowned...

"Xue'er, the egg is steamed, eat it quickly, you will feel good after eating it." Ke Hanchun's delicate voice came to Yang Sirui's ears again.

Although Ke's family has rice and meat, Ke Hanchun dare not touch the things of the whole family, but she can only use the eggs she brought from her husband's house to make up for her younger sister.

Watching Ke Hanchun carefully put the rough ceramic bowl on the old table beside the bed, Yang Sirui's eyes moved.

She remembered that this girl appeared in her weird dream, and the self in the dream seemed to be Ke Hanxue!
Looking around the thatched cottage again, Yang Sirui's eyes widened again.

Could it be a dream? !

Yang Sirui seemed to realize something and became anxious.

How can this be? !
Yang Sirui threw off the quilt violently, wanting to get out of bed and go outside to find out.

Just as Yang Sirui was about to get out of bed, her mother Ke Zhongshi hurried in, followed by her grandmother Ke Mengshi and father Ke Shuisheng.

"Xue'er, what are you doing in such a hurry? Your fever has just subsided, so what if you catch a cold again!" Ke Zhong reprimanded softly, and pushed Yang Sirui back on the bed.

"Mother, I..."

As soon as the words came out, Yang Sirui was stunned again, why did she call "Mother" so smoothly?
"What me? You are not allowed to get out of bed before you are healthy!" Ke Hanchun showed the majesty of the eldest sister, scolded with a straight face, and blamed the younger sister's strangeness on the fear after drowning.

"Xue'er, I'm fine now, don't do such stupid things again." Ke Shuisheng comforted him with distress, but he blamed himself in his heart. If it wasn't for his incompetence as a father, how could he force his little daughter to Desperate and commit suicide?

Yang Sirui's body was still weak, but when she lay down together, she moved so violently that she became dizzy again.

Yang Sirui had no choice but to close her eyes, grabbed the edge of the bed, and wanted to lean on the bed post. Seeing this, Ke Hanchun quickly helped her up.

"Tell you not to get up, you just don't listen, you're dizzy again..."

"My little boy, can you stop making trouble? Grandma, I can't stand being scared anymore." Ke Mengshi blamed Yang Sirui with lingering fear.

Forehead!
Little boy? !
Yang Sirui's head was full of black lines, this "little boy" sounded like he was calling a puppy.

"That's right, what's going on is that parents have to take care of it, so don't do this again in the future!"

"..."

"..."

Several people whispered in Yang Sirui's ear one by one, Yang Sirui unconsciously raised the corners of his lips, the uneasiness in his heart miraculously disappeared after seeing the concerned eyes of several people.

Rebirth, maybe this is God's compensation for her!Yang Sirui thought to herself.

That's all, that's all, since it's here, let's be safe!So far, we can only take one step at a time!

At least there are people here who care and love her, Yang Sirui comforted herself.

As for how to live this day, Yang Sirui didn't think so long-term, anyway, no matter where she is, she is alone.

At dawn the next day, Ke Hanxue followed her sister to the mulberry garden.

Every household here raises silkworms. Villagers will go to the mulberry field to pick mulberry leaves before the sun comes out, and then dry the mulberry leaves with a dry cloth and chop them up to feed the silkworms.

The mulberry trees in the mulberry garden are not as big as imagined, because silkworms need young leaves. Every spring, everyone cuts the old mulberry branches and replants them. Therefore, the mulberry trees in this mulberry garden are only half the height of a person. It is not an exaggeration to call it a mulberry branch.

Of course, every household will still keep a few old mulberry trees in their mulberry fields. When the mulberry trees are very ripe, they will be a favorite snack for children.

After a night of sorting out, Ke Hanxue sorted out the information in her mind clearly, and had a general understanding of this dynasty.

This is a fictional dynasty - Anyuan Kingdom, and she is located in the south of Anyuan Kingdom, Shuihe Village, Xiangsang Town, Jinsi County.

The climate here is similar to that of the modern south, but the contrast of the four seasons is more distinct than that of the modern south. It is the beginning of February, which is the season for silkworm rearing.

As the name suggests, Miansi County is famous for producing silk.

The villagers in more than a dozen villages under Xiangsang Town live by raising silkworms, but they are not so concerned about farming the fields. People here live a relatively prosperous life, except for the original owner Ke Hanxue's family.
