The yard outside wasn't very clean, but the house inside was always occupied, so it was relatively clean and tidy.
Bai Yan went to help her mother with chores again.
Xia Yue, an outsider, wisely swept the yard without disturbing them.
To be honest, she was quite envious of Bai Yan.
At least, she knew who her mother was, and that her mother was still alive.
She knew very little about her biological mother, only that she was a member of the Feng family.
She has never experienced even a trace of maternal love.
Thinking of all this, Xia Yue let out a long sigh.
After she finished cleaning the yard, dinner began.
The third concubine served them the best food, which was somewhat meager compared to the delicacies on Mo Xiao's ship, but Xia Yue and Bai Yan ate to their hearts' content.
This is the best meal the two of them have had recently!
After they finished eating, the two of them helped tidy up the house, which took them a long time.

Xia Yue and Bai Yan smiled and said goodbye.

"But my strength is still too weak, so weak that I don't even dare to recognize her when we meet."
Yueyue, should I not have left Moxiao?
If I had him as my backer, those people from the Bai family definitely wouldn't dare to bully my mother.
It's all my fault, I'm so useless..."
Bai Yan became increasingly distressed as she spoke, and tears began to stream down her face.
Xia Yue handed Bai Yan a tissue and said seriously, "You did nothing wrong. The ones who were wrong were those who bullied you."
Men are unreliable; if you want to protect your aunt, you can only rely on yourself in the end.
You are talented, capable, and able to make money.
I have medical skills, so I can help my aunt treat her illness.
What we need now is just time and opportunity; you must not waver!
Only you yourself can be your greatest support!
