who is the father

I open my eyes and i am confused. Where am i?

In a second, everything that happened to me yesterday comes like a lightning . I get up and i look at the basket thats next to me.

It wasn't a dream, this cute baby boy is mine.

I look around for my baggage and i take out a material that is fluffy and soft so that i will use it as a clothes for my baby. I take a soft cotton like material and i make it like a diaper and i use the other material to wrap him.

I look at my baby and i notice that he is clean and my clothes are open but the baby is sleeping peaceful.

I hear steps outside and in half a minute the door is opened by the old lady.

"Ahhh you are awake. Good, good. I made food so that you will recover your strength.You slept late in the afternoon."

"How come he is sleeping peacefully?"

"Ohh he sleeps now but in the morning he was crying so loud that i think even my husband heard him from the sea....."

"And what about me, how come i didnt heard him crying."

"You slept like dead. I hope you will not get upset but i took liberty to put the child at your breast."

As she said that my face and my ears have become all red.

"Its ok. Thanks for your help. I dont know what i would have done if i had to give birth all alone.... I dont know what to do and with no memories who knows where i could be now."

"I wanted to talk to you about that... I am just a old lady and me and my husband, we have just one son that he is gone to the capital to be a soldier and, if you dont mind you could stay here until you will be better. You could become a bride in our family,my stinky son will not say anything and he could take you as a wife or I could help you with the baby until you recover. Just for a few months and in the spring we could talk with the village leader and we could find a home for you.... "

" Thank you .You have no ideea what this means for me..... I am all alone with no memorie, i dont know if i have relatives....but I think becoming a wife it's not good because it's possible that I already have one. I think...my child surely has a father. ?"

"AHH silly me . That's true. Your son has a father .

Its ok. In two days my husband will come back and I will make a inquire if someone looks for you in town. Is ok like that? "

" I dont have many things to repay you but i could work... I know how to cook and teach. "

" Ahhh will tell you what i want.... let this old lady feel like i have a grandson. I am old and my stinky son is still single. He is so handsome but he has no wife. He is wasting his life in the army. "

" I can do that after all i will need some help. I know nothing of taking care of a child. Thank you..... ummm i dont know your name.. "

" So forgetful of me. I am Ai chang. "

" i am Yin Xue... "

" Such a beautiful name, it matches your look."

" My Look?"

" Oh poor you, you dont know how you look now that you lost your memories. Let me go get the mirror. "

After Ai Chang brought the mirror i could finaly see how i look in this world.

..... now that i am healing, i know that i transmigrated in another world and i dont knows how i look.

I look in the miror and i see me? The same eyes, same bunny teeth and same dimples.

My skin is still snow white but now i have long hair .

I didnt change much except when i transmigrated , except that I can give birth and the only thing that its missing is this body's memories.

I puff in front of the mirror and i look at my face pouting ....

Why i dont get to see the memories of this body like those caracters in the novels that I had read before. How will i know my friends and foes?

And the last... Who is the father of my child... .?

"And your baby?"

"My baby? Ahhh name i didnt decided.... Ummm lets see i like .....Yuan .. Lan Yuan.... A Yuan That will be my babys name ... A Yuan

And so two days have passed like wind for Yin Xiu and Ai Chang. They both were busy with A Yuan and didnt feel when the time has pass.

At the end of the second day, a carriage stops in front of the gate and a man jumps and takes a big bag from inside and bids goodbye to his friends

"AI CHANG, wife im home..."

"Husband... BoHai.. So good you are back. I have a surprise for you....."

"What surprise... I hope you didnt bring home another stray ....."

"Umm not quite... Come here, i want you to meet someone...."

I hear them talking in the yard and i make myself presentable. A few minutes ago a Yuan stopped feeding and i was waiting for him to fall asleep.

The door is opened by Ai chang and i meet for the first time her husband..

" Hello. "

" Hello young Master.."

He looks at me with a scrutiny and then he notice my baby in my arms.

"You are a.... Ger?"

"yes, i think, that what mrs Ai chang said i am."

"Aii you stinky man, dont scare the poor child. He could loose his milk if you look at him like that."

"What are you talking wife? Im not that ugly."

"The poor boy almost died in childbirth and has no memories."

"No memories? So you dont know who you are?"

"I know my name but thats it and i know how to read and write."

"Husband, we need to help him we cant let him all alone. What if someone will take advantage of him. Can you see how beautiful he is... And his baby is so beautiful and sweet. You will love him."

"Aiaiai wife, did you asked in the town. Maybe his husband is looking for him."

"Ive asked already. No foreign carriage came in the last two weeks and until now no one asked about him."

"I could pay my rent, for the room and food.?"

"I wont accept your money. I think we should wait until spring and see what house is free to buy in our area and you could buy it."

"There is a house not far from here,close to the lake. Its the house of the last teacher. Its old but it will bring a smaller price and it comes with land."

"Husband, i want Yin Xue to stay here until spring. He has a small child and he needs our help."

"Aii stuborn wife... You miss so much children that..... Ahhh it appears that you will stay here Yin Xue."

"Thank you... Very much."

"What about the father of your child...."

"Who knows.....? I dont remember him.. And if he doesn't look for us then it means im not important."

In the capital...

ACHOOO.....

"General... Do you wish to tell to the kitchen to make a soup?"

"That will be great Jinhai

Do you have any news in your investigation?"

"Yes, actually I do. But you will not like it."

"Say it."

"From my investigations i found that your wangfei was closed in the cold courtyard after you left for the border in the north , concubine Li zhu cut his money in half and she sold the inner servants that were serving him except one girl. After 5 months she cut all the money for the wangfei and she instructed to the servants that no food is allowed in the cold courtyard. Eventually the wangfei took the last servant that came with him from his parents house and left the residence. The guards lost the person from their eyes and later, after one week found their traces in Xi'an city. "

" Where was heading.? "

" Wherever he was going, he didnt make it. "

" What do you mean? "

" We found.... A body in a deep ravine. It still had the clothes and we found a small mirror with Yin Xiu written on it and the body was too mangled to find some resemblance with the wangfei."

Silence followed the raport made by Jinhai.....

" So he is dead....? "

" im afraid.... "

" Take concubine Li zhu and punish her with 50 whip hits and lock her in a stable for three days, after that make preparation and get all her things and send her to her parents. If she refuse, tell her this..."

".... Choose, your parents or the brothel. "

" And the manor? "

" Let eunuch Lei Fang to manage the manor and let other servants know what concubine Li Zhu did. "

As Jinhai left the general in his office,he walked to the next soldier and gave the orders of exile for concubine Li zhu. As he watched how the servants worked as fast as they could ,he started to look at the leaves that have fallen from a tree near by. As he was distracted ,he started to pity the poor wangfei. Even though he was the official wife ,he was unloved and unimportant . The person that hurt him only got exiled to her parents and 50 hits on her back...

He would have killed the person who hurt his wife... cutting piece by piece ....

Immediately his thoughts run to his parents that are all alone in the village and his mother that keep pestering him to get married. ... Maybe next year he could visit them...
