Rebirth Of The General's Granddaughter Chapter 9

Chapter 9: Birth Mystery

Especially Madam Liu(second aunt), she assumed that her happiness was given to her by Dier .

Apart from knowing Ying Yi ever since they were young, with regards to looks and ability, she was no match for Dier .

When Madam Liu was having her first child, she had a difficult labour . If it wasn't for Dier using her spiritual powers, she could have died together with her child .

Towards someone like Dier, other than feeling grateful, she admired her . She felt that this mysterious sister-in-law wasn't cold and distant at all . She had a heart as beautiful as her appearance .

Madam Liu treated Zi You really well because she wanted to repay Dier for saving her life and also because she had no daughter of her own . After all, she owed a great deal .

Just like that, Dier possessing spiritual powers was known to Old General Mu, Ying Yi and Madam Liu . With the exception of Ying Rui and the servants .

Dier had outstanding medical prowess and loved researching plants . The plants she grew not only had medicinal value but also possessed poison and she could communicate with them . Among them, there was many which could not be found in Great Yan . For example, datura flowers and poppies .

When Zi You was born, Dier gave her a thorough body check up . Upon realizing that she was born with spiritual powers, Dier was shocked . Dier did not want her daughter to live like her, she wanted her daughter to have a regular life just like everyone else . Moreover she didn't want her daughter to have to worry about being brought back home to the spirit realm .  

The second time Old General Mu and Ying Yi went to Nanjing to settle the rebellion, Dier followed them, reducing the casualties in their troops . However, Dier's whereabouts were discovered by her clansmen .

Dier was eventually brought back by her mother . Missing her daughter, she was extremely unwilling to return with her clansmen . However, her spiritual power were far inferior to Dumoli and despite going all out, she was captured by her clansmen and brought back .

Unable to tell the truth, Old General Mu could only lie, saying that Dier had died from an illness .

At that time, Zi You was only nine . Losing her mother at such a young age caused her to fall sick . This made Old General Mu and Ying Yi pity Zi You .

After Zi You recovered, Old General Mu decided to teach her martial arts to strengthen her body .

Zi You had always been interested in plants and medicine from a very young age . She had immerse talent in these area that exceeded even Dier's imagination, therefore Dier had always been imparting her knowledge in medicine to her . Was it not because of Yi Ping, Old General Mu and Ying Yi would definitely not have died from a disease .

Zi You made a pledge in her heart that she would for sure master all of her mother's medicinal technique . Luckily for her, Dier left many precious copies of medicinal books for her . Moreover, they were all written in cryptic that only Zi You could understand .

Currently, Zi You did not know that she possessed spiritual powers . However Old General Mu realized it and after thinking about it and discussing with Ying Yi, they decided to reveal the truth about Zi You's spiritual power to her .

This is because the two of them feared that Zi You may lose control of her spiritual powers and reveal her purple eyes to the world . At that time, it would be disastrous .

Hearing her grandfather and second uncle describing her lineage, Zi You was not shaken, instead she was ecstatic .

Zi You always knew that her mother was not simple . From the day she taught Zi You medicine, Zi You knew that her mother was different from the women of Great Yan .
