Lou Yunchun couldn't bear the beatings and scoldings of his alcoholic father every day, so he fled to the east of the city and became a servant of the Zhong family, a wealthy businessman, and signed a death contract.
On the first day he entered the house, Lou Yunchun mistook the head of the house for his own mother who left home three years ago and was beaten with a stick. He suffered from grief, fear, and pain. He fell seriously ill, burned out his throat, and became mute from then on.
Lou Yunchun was speechless and offended his mistress again. The servants blamed him for any mistakes they made.
The kitchen is short of food? Lou Yunchun eats.
The glass lamp is broken? Lou Yunchun smashed it.
Miss's jewelry is gone? Lou Yunchun stole it.
Lou Yunchun lived a fearful life, his behavior became more and more unsightly, and he lived like a rat in the gutter.
Zhong Yue, the eldest son of the Zhong Mansion, was born to the previous mistress. He was talented, handsome and gentle. He was the only person in the manor who believed in Lou Yunchun. When Lou Yunchun couldn't speak, he taught him to read and write.
Lou Yunchun was so moved that he wrote down all his heartache and suffering over the years on paper, but for some reason the master saw the paper and his mother was kicked out.
Lou Yunchun hurriedly went to ask for help from the eldest young master.
The eldest young master said that he could take him to Beijing with him to take the exam, and after passing the exam, he would be able to take his mother back when he became an official.
Lou Yunchun had no choice but to repay him with his own body.
After the imperial examination, Zhong Yue was selected as the top student in high school, won the favor of the emperor, and stayed in the palace. However, Lou Yunchun was not even qualified to take the examination because of his serious illness.
On the day of Qionglin's banquet, Lou Yunchun received a message from Zhong Yue, asking him to serve at the banquet and not to be late. He was surprised and happy, and rushed over immediately. But when he arrived, he was not allowed to enter the main entrance or the side door. In a moment of desperation, he got into a dog hole, and was shot to death by a cold arrow that came from nowhere.
The Holy Emperor was not impressed and gave Zhong Yue a better and smarter attendant. Everyone looked at him with envy, but no one noticed that his face was paler than the dead Lou Yunchun.
At the same time, the grandson of Prince Rong, who lost his footing and drowned, opened his eyes amidst the great joy and sorrow.

Note: Yunchun was not smart before his rebirth, nor will he be smart after his rebirth. Don't have too high expectations for him.
