As soon as the First Madam and her entourage left, Bian Yanzhi slowly sat up from the bed.

"Miss, you're awake." Zhuzhu saw her get up and quickly ran over to help her.

Bian Yanzhi coughed a few times, leaned against the bed and looked at Zhuzhu seriously: "I was able to save you today because I reacted in time. Otherwise, do you think the First Madam would have let you off? Since we are under someone else's roof, we have to learn to bow our heads."

Zhu Zhu released her hand and lowered her head in dissatisfaction: "But Liu Furong is going too far! Miss, you haven't even entered the door yet and she's already trying to stuff people into your way. Does she really think we have no one to rely on?"

Bian Yanzhi was stunned. After a long while, she reached out and grabbed Zhuzhu's hand: "We really have no one left."

Zhuzhu then realized what she had just said. She looked up at Bian Yanzhi with regret and said, "Miss, I misspoke."

Bian Yanzhi pursed her lips, closed her eyes, and waved to her.

"Miss……"

Zhuzhu wanted to say something more, but when she saw Bian Yanzhi had already pulled up the blanket and lay down, she stopped talking.

She watched Bian Yanzhi's retreating figure for a long while, then sighed softly and pulled the door open to leave.

Her young lady is also pitiful. She has been weak and sickly since she was young. Before, when her master and mistress were alive, there were people who took care of her, bought her medicine and treated her. But now that her master and mistress are gone, they had no choice but to take the marriage certificate and seek refuge with the Sang family. Who knew that the first wife would be such a person?

When the master and mistress were alive, they were very attentive to her young lady. But when the Bian family really ran into trouble, she avoided them like a mouse hiding from a cat.

After Sang Hongfu brought her young lady back, Liu Furong never gave her a kind look, so Zhuzhu naturally disliked her.

Outside the courtyard.

The First Madam looked at Yang Liu, who had regained her usual arrogance, and said, "You're quite clever. Since Yun'er wants you, you can stay with him for now. But don't be too happy yet, Yun'er will never marry you."

Yang Liu lowered her eyes to hide the disdain in them: "Yang Liu understands, Madam. Don't worry, Young Master saved Yang Liu and gave Yang Liu a home. Yang Liu can never repay him in this lifetime. How could she possibly have any improper thoughts?"

She not only wanted to, but she also wanted to do it; however, she still needed to rely on this woman until Sang Yun returned.

"Hmm." The First Madam nodded: "Go back and have someone send you two sets of clothes. Although you're not a proper mistress, your clothes are far too shabby."

As she spoke, she took two steps to the side, gently covering her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, as if Yang Liu were some kind of dirty thing.

Yang Liu clenched her fist secretly, but did not show it on her face. She pretended to be surprised and looked up at the Madam as she knelt down: "Yang Liu thanks Madam. Madam and Young Master are both good people. I have no way to repay your kindness. I only hope that Madam will allow me to stay by your side in the future and do my part."

The First Madam glanced at her and nodded in satisfaction: "You're quite sensible. Alright, I don't need anyone here. You should spend your time learning the rules of this mansion. Whether you can stay in the mansion in the future is not up to me. You should use your time to think about how to please your future grandmother."

Yang Liu's eyes flickered: "Yang Liu understands, Madam. Please rest assured, Yang Liu will definitely take good care of my future grandmother."

She emphasized the words "it will definitely be alright" very clearly.

The First Madam's words clearly implied that she wanted her to disgust and suppress Bian Yanzhi.

She already had this intention, and now that the First Madam has spoken, isn't that exactly what she wanted?
