Seeing that Madam Sun was speaking so bluntly, Master Sun quickly spoke up to stop her:

"Madam, please say less!"

Seeing this, Madam Sun turned around and glared at Master Sun.

"What, you can't even let others talk about what you've done? Does that mean we're helping others but making a mistake? I think you're just stupid, you believe everything people say!"

Jiang Yuwei understood what Madam Sun meant and quickly explained:

"Well, Madam Sun, I know my second brother has helped me a lot, but I really can't find anyone else to help me with this matter, so I thought I'd trouble you again..."

Upon hearing this, Madam Sun raised an eyebrow and looked at Jiang Yuwei with disdain, saying sarcastically:

"There will be a next time after this one. I've seen this kind of trick many times. To put it bluntly, you're just a goddaughter that the old lady took in on a whim. I don't know how you managed to make the old lady happy and speak up for you like this!"

Seeing that Madam Sun's words were becoming increasingly outrageous, the old lady quickly spoke up:

"Enough! How have you become so ill-mannered? If you don't want to stay here, get out!"

After speaking, the old lady ignored Madam Sun, who was still standing there in a daze, and turned to Jiang Yuwei to ask:

"Yuwei, tell me what's wrong. If your second brother won't help you, I will. Don't underestimate me just because I'm old. I still have some connections in Ping'an Town."

Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei quickly went to the old lady's side and respectfully said:

"It's like this, godmother. Things haven't been peaceful lately. I've heard some rumors, so I want to make plans as soon as possible. After thinking it over, the only people I can trust in this Ping'an Town are you and my second brother."

As Jiang Yuwei spoke, she took out the property deed for the shop on North Street from her bosom and handed it to the old lady, saying earnestly:

“Godmother, this is the property deed for our shop. I would like to ask you and my second brother to keep it for me.”

When Madam Sun saw that Jiang Yuwei had given the house deed directly to the old lady, she immediately became wary and said:

"What kind of trouble are you causing now? Don't even think about setting a trap for the Sun family!"

Seeing this, the old lady glared at Madam Sun and said angrily:

"Shut up."

He then turned to look at Jiang Yuwei, reached out and pulled her to sit down next to him.

"Yuwei, what are your plans for giving us this property deed?"

Jiang Yuwei glanced at Master Sun, then looked at the old lady and slowly spoke:

“Right now, the bandits are moving south, and we have no protection in the village. My house is built at the foot of the mountain, which is quite conspicuous in the village, unlike you in the town where there are soldiers patrolling and so many servants at home,”

Jiang Yuwei sighed again and continued:

“My fear is that if we were to suddenly have to run away one day, there would be no one to look after this shop on North Street. That’s why I’m leaving this property deed with you, and also giving you a copy of the Moxianzhai membership list.”

As she spoke, Jiang Yuwei took out a copied membership booklet from her bosom and handed it to the old lady.

"If my shop is closed for seven days, I would appreciate it if you could sell it for me and give all the money to the new members. As for the remaining money, consider it your reward for your hard work."

After speaking, Jiang Yuwei looked around at everyone in the room somewhat shyly, then lowered her head and said:

"I shouldn't have troubled you with this, but I really don't trust anyone else with it, so..."

The old lady sighed and waved her hand, saying:

"Don't say anything more, Yuwei. I've agreed to this on behalf of your second brother. You're a good girl, and you haven't forgotten your responsibilities even in this situation. If there's any emergency, you must remember to save your life. As long as you're alive, that's all that matters. You can earn money again, but if you lose your life, you really lose everything."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuwei nodded hurriedly and said:

"Thank you for your guidance, Godmother. I will remember it all."

The old lady patted Jiang Yuwei's hand, then took a jade pendant from her waist and placed it in Jiang Yuwei's hand, smiling as she said:

“This jade pendant was a token of love between your godfather and me. If you really want to run away, go to the capital. Your elder brother is an official there. When he sees this jade pendant, he will definitely recognize you as his sister.”

Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei quickly declined, saying:

"This, this is unacceptable! This jade pendant is too important to you; your daughter absolutely cannot accept it!"

Seeing this, Madam Sun widened her eyes, staring intently at the jade pendant in the old lady's hand, and said unhappily:

"Mother, how could you give this jade pendant away? Humph, and even send her to the capital to seek refuge with my eldest brother. You really know how to make trouble for your two sons!"

Upon hearing this, the old lady shoved the jade pendant into Jiang Yuwei's hand and pointed at Madam Sun, scolding her:

"Do you even have the demeanor of the Madam of the Sun family? I never knew you were such a jealous person. Today I'm going to give this jade pendant to Yuwei. I'm not even dead yet, and you're already trying to drive me to my death? Second son, your wife is a menace!"

As she spoke, the old lady began to pound her chest, her face flushed with anger. Seeing this, Jiang Yuwei forgot about refusing to discuss the jade pendant and quickly reached out to pat the old lady's back to help her catch her breath and comfort her.

"Godmother, please don't get angry. Don't let me ruin our relationship. It's not worth it, it's not worth it. Our health is the most important thing."

Seeing his mother so angry, Master Sun also became furious and scolded Madam Sun, who was standing beside him:

"Get back to your room right now! You're confined for three months!!" Granny Li escorted the lady back to her room.

Upon hearing the instructions, Granny Li hurriedly stepped forward to help Madam Sun up and respectfully said:

"Madam, please!"

Seeing this, Madam Sun glared at Granny Li, flung her hand away, and said fiercely to her:

"I'm not seventy or eighty years old yet. I can walk by myself. Get out of my way!"

With that, Madam Sun stormed out.

The old lady watched her retreating figure and shook her head helplessly, saying:

"What a terrible thing, what a terrible thing, cough cough..."

The old lady coughed and covered her mouth with a handkerchief, but when she took it off, she saw that the snow-white handkerchief was stained with blood. Jiang Yuwei and Master Sun were both shocked to see this.

"Quickly, go and fetch the royal physician!"

The old lady shook her head helplessly and smiled bitterly:

"I'm getting old, I'm getting old, my body can't take it anymore."

As she spoke, the old lady took Sun Yuanwai's hand and handed him the property deed and membership list, saying:

"Son, you need to help with Yuwei's matter. Did you remember everything she said just now?"

With red eyes, Master Sun said:

"Mother, I've written it all down. Don't worry, I will definitely live up to Yuwei's expectations."

The old lady nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this, and then said to Jiang Yuwei:

"Yuwei, I'm a little tired and want to sleep for a while. You should go back first. Remember to bring Wan'er to see me next time."

Jiang Yuwei, with red eyes, respectfully bowed to the old lady and then withdrew.

Jiang Yuwei never expected that the old lady and Master Sun would help her so wholeheartedly. Jiang Yuwei touched the jade pendant in her hand, and her respect for the old lady deepened.
