The noise of the two people's quarrel alarmed Yu Qizhe and Fei Ge'er in the courtyard. Fei Ge'er saw his mother getting angry at his elder sister, and his eyes turned red with fear. He said in fear, "Mom, don't chase my elder sister away. She finally came back..."

Yu Qizhe walked to Yu Jiao, held her hand, and stood beside her in a protective manner.

"Mother-in-law, please talk to me nicely. You will scare Jiaojiao like this."

Liu Sanniang stared at Yu Jiao with cold eyes, even with a hint of hatred, "I have nothing to say to her, take her away quickly, since she has been sold to your house, she is no longer my daughter, and has nothing to do with our Meng family anymore, you don't have to come here again."

"Mom, please don't be mean to my sister. What did I do wrong? Please don't chase me away." Fei Ge'er cried and walked forward, grabbed Liu Sanniang's sleeve, begging.

Yu Qizhe held Yu Jiao's hand with a little force, and looked at Liu Sanniang with a hint of coldness in his eyes, "Jiaojiao, let's go."

After hearing this, Fei Ge'er loosened his grip on Liu Sanniang's sleeves, threw himself into Yu Jiao's arms, hugged her thighs, and cried, "Sister, don't leave. It was Fei Ge'er who was disobedient and made mother angry. It's all Fei Ge's fault. Sister, please don't quarrel with mother..."

Seeing him crying out of breath, Yu Jiao felt very distressed. She took out a handkerchief and wiped away the tears on Fei Ge'er's face. She squatted down and said gently, "Don't cry, Fei Ge'er. Men don't cry easily. Sister won't come back to see you often in the future. You have to study hard."

"No...Sister...please don't come back to see Fei Ge'er..." Fei Ge'er sobbed and held Yu Jiao's hand tightly.

Yu Jiao sighed softly, she let go of Fei Ge'er's hand, took out a purse from her sleeve, poured out twenty taels of silver and placed it on the table.

"Since mother doesn't want to see me anymore, I won't come to your house to bother you anymore. There has been a lot of rain this year, and there may be floods. Mother, keep this money and take good care of Fei Ge'er. I'm leaving now."

After she finished speaking, she took Yu Qizhe's hand and they walked out of the yard.

Fei Ge'er cried and chased after Yu Jiao, stumbling and crying, "Sister, sister, please don't leave, don't abandon Fei Ge'er and mother..."

Liu Sanniang stood in the house and did not move.

Fei Ge'er ran to the gate of the courtyard and tripped over the threshold and fell to the ground. He sat on the ground and cried even more sadly, calling the word "sister" over and over again.

Yu Jiao couldn't bear it, so she turned around and helped him up from the ground, wiping the tears from his face with her fingertips, "Be good, Fei'er, don't cry. I will come to see you secretly in the future."

Fei Ge'er wiped the tears from his face with his sleeves, and tightly grasped Yu Jiao's sleeves with his little hands, crying, "Sister, don't lie to me..."

"Sister won't lie to you." Yu Jiao helped him brush off the dirt on his body and said softly, "Fei Ge'er, be a good boy. If there's not enough food at home or something happens, go to Brother Dafu's house and tell him."

Fei Ge'er nodded obediently with tears in his eyes.

"Go back quickly. Sister brought you some little gadgets in the bag. Go and take a look." Yu Jiao coaxed in a gentle voice.

Maybe because his father died early and his elder sister got married, Fei Ge'er was not as playful as other children. He was not attracted by the little toys that Yu Jiao mentioned. He still held Yu Jiao's hand tightly, looked at her with tears in his eyes, and begged in a low voice, "Sister, please don't leave, okay?"

Yu Jiao touched his red nose from crying and pulled his sleeve out of his little hand, "Sister is gone."

Yu Qizhe helped her get on the carriage, and Yu Jiao whispered, "Let's go to my aunt's house."

Yu Qizhe nodded. He knew that Yu Jiao was soft-hearted. Even though her mother didn't treat her well, she was still worried about Liu Sanniang and her son. He drove towards Meng Dafu's house.

Yu Jiao lifted the car curtain and looked back, seeing Fei Ge'er still standing at the door, wiping his tears with the back of his hands. His thin little body looked lonely and helpless, which made people feel pity for him.

The gate of Meng Dafu's house was open. The old man of the Meng family was working in the yard. He saw a carriage parked at the door of his house and looked outside.

He recognized Yu Qizhe at a glance and hurriedly shouted into the house, "Da Fu, come out and greet the guests. The fifth brother and his wife are here."

Meng Dafu was accompanying Yu Huangqi in the house. He came out from the main room in a gentle voice and said with a warm smile, "Come in and sit down. The rain just stopped. Why did you come here?"

"It rained heavily a few days ago, and Yu Jiao was worried about her mother-in-law, so we came to see her." Yu Qizhe replied.

They followed Meng Dafu into the main hall. Yu Huangqi was lying on a rattan chair in the room. She stood up with great effort and said with a smile, "Hurry up and sit down. I was just saying that I would go back to my parents' home in a few days when I feel better!"

Yu Jiao noticed that Yu Huangqi was heavy and had an unusually large belly, but she hadn't given birth yet. She asked, "What's wrong with you, little aunt?"

"It's nothing, I just feel very weak. The moment I move, I feel powerless." Yu Huangqi lay back on the rattan chair with a listless look.

"Let me feel your aunt's pulse." She walked forward and placed her hand on Yu Huangqi's wrist.

Yu Huangqi said weakly, "I wanted to see a doctor a few days ago, but it rained for so many days in a row, so it was difficult to go out, so I delayed it."

Yu Jiao felt Yu Huangqi's pulse and said, "Is my aunt going to give birth this month?"

Yu Huangqi smiled and nodded, "It should be within the last few days of the month." She stroked her belly, her face showing the tenderness of a mother.
