Chapter 205 Capture Her

Jiang Lian'er felt a pang of pity for a moment.

This is, after all, her own daughter. If she goes with that scoundrel Hu San, she might be sold to some dirty place when she grows up. Even if she isn't sold, her life will be ruined.

But her stepmother cares about her a lot; she'd probably send her whatever she wanted.

“Sanya, I’m doing this for your own good. You’re living with a stepmother. She seems to be treating you well now, but that’s because she hasn’t had her own children yet.”

"Once she and your father have their own child, you'll be superfluous. You'll suffer then. You're a girl, so your stepmother can easily control you."

"It's different for your mother. I won't have any more children. From now on, you'll be my only child, Sanya. When you grow up a little, you'll understand my good intentions!"

Jiang Lian'er patiently explained the reasoning to Sanya.

If possible, she still hoped that Sanya could acknowledge her as her mother, and then she might be able to stay with Lin Anyuan...

"Ah—my hand!"

Hu San suddenly let go, and the fingers that had been gripping San Ya were now covered in blood.

Then another small knife was plunged into Hu San's thigh, and blood gushed out.

"Ah! Murder!" Jiang Lian'er screamed in fright.

While the two were screaming, Sanya took off running, not forgetting to pull out her little knife as she left.

The two of them would make a scene every few days, and the neighbors were used to it. Watching the commotion would get them robbed by Hu San, so no one came out when there was any noise just now.

Seeing Hu San screaming so pitifully, it turned out that Hu San was injured when he came out!

"Good heavens, what's going on? Quickly, call a doctor!"

...

...

"Madam, you don't look too well. Should we call a doctor for you?"

Seeing that Ye Wan's face was slightly pale while drinking tea, Hui Gu asked with concern.

"It's nothing, it's just that my period started. I guess I ate too many cold foods before, so I'm feeling a little uncomfortable, but it's nothing serious."

Ye Wan had some menstrual cramps the first time she came, but she hasn't had any discomfort since. This time, she probably ate too much chilled fruit.

Huigu was just calculating her own days, and when she heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief, "The weather is still cold, so it's best not to be too cold."

As long as she's not pregnant, that's fine, since the master isn't around either.

The situation is still undecided, and it is not suitable for the wife to get pregnant now.

"Madam, please don't drink this kind of tea for the next couple of days. I'll replace it with jujube tea for you."

No sooner had Huigu finished speaking than Sanya returned.

"Sanya, you're back today..."

Ye Wan hurriedly stood up halfway through her sentence, "Sanya, where did you get blood on you? Are you alright?"

"Mother, these aren't mine, they belong to other people." Sanya said, somewhat dazed.

"What happened?" Ye Wan checked carefully before feeling relieved.

Sanya recounted what had just happened, and as soon as she finished, she hugged Ye Wan tightly. "Mother, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have run over there secretly."

Sensing that Sanya was crying, Ye Wan patted her head and said, “Sanya, you are still young and may not understand some things. There are all kinds of people in the world. Not all parents will love their children. I have told your second sister this before, and I will tell you it again now.”

"Mom, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I'll never see her again. She's not my mother! Never again!"

Sanya gradually began to cry, and her crying grew louder and louder.

"Cry, crying will make you feel better." Ye Wan gently patted Sanya's back.

Sanya cried until she was exhausted and fell asleep, then Huigu carried her back to bed and put her down.

Seeing Ye Wan staring at Sanya, Hui Gu lowered her voice.

"Madam, don't be sad. After this experience, the Third Miss should no longer have any expectations of that Jiang man."

Ye Wan said softly, "I'm not really sad. I guess this little girl is heartbroken. She's still a child, and she has a special affection for her own mother."

Sanya probably secretly went to see Jiang Lian'er, and that's when she encountered this.

"But if you don't cut your losses, you'll get confused when things happen. It's better this way now. You've been hurt once, so there won't be any more trouble in the future."

Ye Wan wasn't really upset, nor did she think San Ya was an ingrate. The child was still young; she could raise her slowly.

"Aunt Hui, could you please make this trip?"

"Don't worry, Madam, I'll be right back."

Hui Gu went to deal with Jiang Lian'er and Hu San, and almost hurt San Ya. This matter cannot be taken lightly.

The next day.

When Sanya woke up, she saw Ye Wan sleeping next to her.

Sanya looked at her, cautiously approached, and then tried to rub her face against Ye Wan.

Ye Wan opened her eyes. "San Ya is awake. Do you want something delicious? Like that little cake from last time?"

"Yes," Sanya said shyly, looking at Ye Wan in a soft voice.

Ye Wan grabbed her hand, "Then get up, let's go get it together."

"Mom, when did you make these little cakes?"

Ye Wan personally washed Sanya's face and combed her hair, which prompted Sanya to ask curiously.

“I did this while I was watching you sleep last night; you kept talking in your sleep.”

"Mother." Sanya hugged Ye Wan again.

Mother is so good. She wants to learn kung fu well so she can protect her for the rest of her life.

"Mom, you slept with Sanya last night? I don't care, you have to sleep with me tonight! That's fair!"

At the dinner table, Er Ya, knowing that Ye Wan and San Ya had slept together, wouldn't let it go.

Ye Wan said, "Okay, I'll draw a turtle on your face when you fall asleep."

"The turtles my mother drew were the most beautiful turtles."

Ye Wan chuckled, "I'm really impressed by your flattery. Hurry up and eat."

After the meal, Ye Wan was going to the estate, and she wanted to take the three of them with her.

These estates were originally privately owned, but after King Jing conquered Ganzhou, they all belonged to him.

"What are you three whispering about? Come and help us!"

Ye Wan was getting farm tools, including a small knife for digging potatoes.

These potatoes have sprouted parts that can be cut off and planted, while the parts without sprouts can still be eaten. There's no need to bury them all and waste them.

Er Ya spoke up once she was seated in the carriage, "Mother, we have nothing to do at home all day. Didn't you say you wanted to open a pastry shop? How about we open one here?"

The main reason is that the little cake I ate this morning was so delicious. Er Ya wants to eat it every day. When the pastry shop opens, she can eat her fill.

Ye Wan examined the knife, saying, "Sure, as long as you're happy, I have no problem with kneading dough and making pastries every day."

"Huh? I have to do it myself?"

"What, you just want to sit there and be the manager? What if someone spits in your pastries? Do you know what will happen when they eat them?"

"Mom, please stop talking, it's disgusting. Let's eat less food from outside in the future, who knows if it's clean or not."

Ye Wan: ...

Actually, she felt disgusted with herself after saying that. There must be very few people with such low moral character.

"Madam Ye, the land has been prepared according to the requirements in the manual. Take a look."
