Wen Xueyi sighed, "I'm afraid these people's bad habits are hard to change. Forget it, I don't have the energy to take care of other people. I just need to protect these people in the nunnery."

"Qiao'er, I'm feeling pretty good right now. Can we go see my older brother now?"

Jiang Qiao shook her head. "You still need to recuperate for two more days. Your constitution was a bit weak before, and you were also worried and scared. If I hadn't come in time, you might not have lasted much longer."

Listen to me, let it heal first. Although I'm giving you the best supplements, illnesses like this can't be cured in a day or two. If you don't want your older brother to worry, just do as I say.

Wen Xueyi casually inquired about her nephew's condition. Yesterday, she was neither in the mood nor had the energy for it. Now that she was feeling better, she started to care about things at home. "She's in such a state here, do you think the Wen family can escape it?"

"Don't even mention it. My uncle got divorced, his wife remarried, and the two children went with their mother. My older brother from Shaoyang is with my uncle."

The father and son were having a tough time, but things improved after I visited. They started cooking for themselves and had their own room. The medicine I gave them helped him build his own network of contacts. Overall, things were much better than before; they no longer had to worry about food or clothing.

Wen Xueyi sighed, "I never imagined that the Wen family of yesteryear would end up like this."

You said your uncle grew up in luxury, can he adapt to that kind of life?

Jiang Qiao shrugged. "What can we do? If we can't resist, we can only adapt. It seems that the father and son are adapting quite well. It's just that a good family has fallen apart."

However, I feel that kind of woman is not good enough for my uncle. My uncle is such a good person, optimistic, open-minded, positive, and his life is full of sunshine.

She didn't want a man like that, so the one she finds probably won't be any better. She's already abandoned the best one; if she looks for someone else, he'll only be the opposite of my uncle.

Wen Xueyi snorted, "It's good that you're divorced. Our Wen family doesn't need that kind of person. What is she? When things are good, she's all over us, but when things get tough, she just walks away. Does she really think our Wen family is going to collapse?"

That person who looks down on others will regret it sooner or later.

Those two girls, sigh, I can't say anything to them. They're not little kids anymore, and they have no sense of right and wrong at all. Forget it, talking to them will only make me angry, and it's not worth getting upset. I still need to see my older brother.”

"That's true, but my uncle is worried about these two girls and asked me to go check on them when I have time. Sigh, I don't know what problems could possibly arise with their mother around?"

Wen Xueyi snorted twice, "That Ouyang Mingzhu, I'm not trying to criticize her, but it's her skill to take good care of two girls. The problem is that these two girls don't benefit from their mother, but she herself suffers."

Sigh, I really didn't expect that the children of the Wen family would be so heartless. They're like weather vanes, always siding with whichever side is stronger. It's good that they went to see for themselves.

I'm angry as I am, but they are still members of the Wen family. We need to take action as soon as possible if anything happens. If I remember correctly, those two are about your age and are of marriageable age. Don't let that unreliable mother ruin the children's future.

Anyway, it's not wrong for my nephew to care about the child, after all, he's the one who gave birth to him, who else would care if he didn't? It's just that you, the child, have suffered, running around for us everywhere.

How are your parents doing? Is your grandfather alright?

Jiang Qiao gave a wry smile and then briefly explained her family situation.

"Anyway, I've figured it out. If you're powerful, no one will dare to do anything. I'd rather be a shrew than let my family suffer. Reputation and all that mean nothing to me."

Wen Xueyi smiled happily, "You're quite insightful, kid. We're not as clear-headed as you."

Seeing that Wen Xueyi was in better spirits, Jiang Qiao continued to give her acupuncture.

"Don't complain about the pain. This needle from your granddaughter really works. Let's use both methods together to ensure your health is fine."

"Grandma, I hope you live to be a hundred years old. You'll have to watch the Wen family regain its former prosperity."

Wen Xueyi smiled contentedly, "With younger generations like you, our Wen family will not fall."

The next morning, someone knocked on the door. The sound wasn't loud, but the person outside shouted quite loudly, as if afraid the person inside wouldn't hear.

"Alright, they've come for the antidote. Open the door and give them the medicine."

Those people outside, after experiencing excruciating pain last night, are truly terrified. They never want to experience that bone-deep pain again.

In these people's minds, Jiang Qiao's beautiful face was the epitome of a devil. You can't judge a book by its cover. This pretty woman, when she gets ruthless, is more terrifying than her mother's devilish nature. Who has ever seen a devil? But this woman was terrifying, and that was a memory they would never forget for the rest of their lives.

As for the cursing, only those who were slapped by Jiang Qiao know how much it hurt. Their mouths felt like they had eaten countless chili peppers, burning from their stomachs all the way to their mouths. They couldn't have a peaceful night. The more water they drank, the more it hurt, let alone eating.

But they were hungry if they didn't eat, so they rushed over early in the morning, hoping to get better quickly. They really didn't dare to do anything else, and they didn't even want to see Jiang Qiao again. They hoped they would never see him again in their lives. They just wanted the antidote.

Jiang Qiao didn't care how these people felt. She just wanted them to learn a lesson. She couldn't be bothered to argue with those who lacked manners. It wasn't that she couldn't, but she felt that doing so was pointless. It would be much more satisfying to just take action.

After taking their medicine, the group left in a hurry, as if they were being chased by ghosts. They were as arrogant as they were before, and now they were as pathetic as they were. The most relieved people were the masters, who were working in the courtyard while discussing the matter enthusiastically.

Actually, Wen Xueyi wasn't too particular about living in the nunnery. This place was just a refuge for poor women who had nowhere else to go. As for whether you liked chanting scriptures or not, she didn't have many requirements and didn't force you.

However, living here means you can't be lazy. There's no such thing as someone serving someone else. Even Wen Xueyi herself, when she's feeling well, will go out to work with these people.

Sure enough, their spirits lifted, and they brought a few people who liked doing morning prayers. After finishing their chanting, they came over to help. The work was lively and not boring at all; everyone was chatting and laughing. Wen Xueyi just listened quietly. Laughter hadn't been heard in the nunnery for a long time. It was only when Jiang Qiao arrived that everyone's mood improved.

"We'll make tofu for lunch. Let us know in advance if anyone likes tofu pudding or soy milk!"
