Over the years, she had been hoping every day that her husband would protect them well and that her son would grow up. Today, she saw a glimmer of hope and cried tears of joy.

Jiang Manyun looked at her unfamiliar younger brother, wondering if this was the same brother she knew.

"Mother, eldest sister, things are not safe in the capital right now. Mother and eldest sister should try not to go out."

"Do you know something?" Jiang Manyun asked anxiously.

Jiang Jinglin got up, walked to the door, and seemed to have forgotten his cane in his haste to leave. He went back, picked up his cane, and slowly walked outside.

When Madam Jiang and Jiang Manyun saw this scene, neither of them knew how to react.

Jiang Jinglin was not injured; it was all an act.

The two were incredibly excited about this realization.

Madam Jiang reacted a little faster; she turned to look at Wu Ma, who was standing there in a daze.

"Wu Ma——"

At that sound, Wu's mother trembled and knelt on the ground in fright.

Jiang Manyun understood what her mother meant. She got up and went into the inner room, then quickly came out again with a handkerchief and stood beside her.

"Mother, Wu Ma has been by your side for so many years, don't you still believe me?"

Wu's mother glanced at Jiang Manyun, and was very excited.

In the instant she looked down, she didn't see Jiang Manyun's gaze toward Madam Jiang; she only saw a pair of familiar shoes approaching.

Jiang Manyun reached out to help Wu's mother up, "Wu's mother, get up quickly."

Wu's mother was very excited and tried to stand up, but at that moment her eyes rolled back and she fell to the ground as Jiang Manyun let go.

Madam Jiang watched from the side without saying a word.

Jiang Manyun stood up and threw the handkerchief at Wu Ma. She helped Madam Jiang walk outside, saying, "Mother, if you can fight back, why get angry?"

The mother and daughter walked outside, with Lan'er and Mei'er following behind, seemingly unaware that there was a person lying on the ground.
