Tsai Shu-yi's voice was filled with surprise and joy as she exclaimed, "I'm going to have a little sister!"
“She’s my sister, your little niece,” Li An corrected Cai Shuyi.
“She’s my sister, sister, sister, sister…” Zhou Yunluo called her “sister, sister” every day.
Tsai Shu-yi also really wants a younger sister.
"No matter how much you call her, she's still your niece."
“Waaah… I don’t want a niece, I want a sister.” Cai Shuyi cried.
“Shushu can dote on her little niece like a younger sister.” Ye Yunniang wiped away her tears and reached out to hug Cai Shuyi.
"May I?"
"Of course you can." Ye Yunniang's affirmative answer made Cai Shuyi smile through her tears.
"Sister-in-law is so good." Cai Shuyi hugged Ye Yunniang's neck and said coquettishly.
After appeasing Cai Shuyi, Ye Yunniang stepped forward and bowed to Tong Tiemei.
"Mr. Zhou,"
"Shushu calls me aunt, so you should call me aunt too."
"How dare I, a commoner, call you aunt?" Ye Yunniang made her stance clear, not wanting to have too much to do with the Bao family, the Tong family, or the Zhou family.
“I heard about Shushu’s mother from Xiao Mo. It was my younger brother who was wrong. He trusted his older brother and sister-in-law too much. …I was also wrong; I didn’t check on her more often.” Tong Tiemei admitted her shortcomings.
“Madam, my mother’s matter has nothing to do with you. I want to thank you on my mother’s behalf for taking care of Shushu and An’an.” Ye Yunniang was not angry with Tong Tiemei.
"My younger brother has been working tirelessly for Shushu's mother's sake."
"When my mother first fell into a coma, Lord Bao would go out at 4 a.m. every day and return at 8 p.m., sometimes not until 11 p.m.
When he got home, he would go to my mother's room. He would massage her hands and feet and talk to her.
"It can take anywhere from a quarter of an hour to half an hour," Ye Yunniang paused here.
It was only after Bao Min's attitude that Ye Yunniang relented and allowed him to bring Cai Da to the capital.
"Jiang Mingzhe said before that 'Thousand Days of Sleep' is also called 'Death of Love.' I couldn't understand it then, but now I understand why it's called 'Death of Love.'"
“No, my uncle has very deep feelings for my aunt. It was my father and stepmother who did the evil. My uncle didn’t expect that the servants would become lax in just two or three days,” Tong Mo explained to Bao Min.
"My buttocks and legs are rotten," Ye Yunniang said calmly, referring to what she saw while cleaning Cai Da's body.
Tong Mo couldn't utter a single word in defense of Bao Min.
"I don't know. Ye Yunniang, I... I really didn't know that my aunt's condition was so serious."
“I believe you don’t know. But Bao Min shouldn’t be unaware.” Ye Yunniang’s words sealed Bao Min’s fate.
"Yunniang, your words are a bit arbitrary." Tong Tiemei naturally sided with Bao Min and felt that Ye Yunniang was being unreasonable.
“Lying in the house is my mother, who treats me like her own daughter.” Ye Yunniang’s voice became a little stern.
"You hate your younger brother?"
Because of a bet with Jiang Mingzhe, Bao Min pesters Cai Damei to have his child.
This caused Ye Yunniang to be trafficked and nearly die on the frontier.
He schemed against Cai Damei for the sake of his brother and sister-in-law, and was captured by bandits, almost dying on the mountain.
Cai Damei miraculously survived, but because of him, she was poisoned by Xing Jinxiu and lay in bed waiting to die.
All of these things made Ye Yunniang hate them.
Tong Tiemei knew nothing about these things. She looked at Tong Mo and asked, "Is everything she said true?"
"Yes, it has always been my uncle who forced my aunt to do it." Tong Mo no longer hid the truth.
After hearing this, Tong Tiemei kicked Tong Mo, "Is this how I taught you? To seize by force? To plot against innocent lives?"
"Mother, don't hit brother, waah..." Zhou Yunlu hugged Tong Tiemei, crying and trying to stop her from kicking Tong Mo anymore.
Tong Tiemei grabbed Zhou Yunluo, "Come home with me."
Tong Tiemei was too ashamed to say anything more to Ye Yunniang about what Bao Min had done.
Ye Yunniang did not try to stop Tong Tiemei and let her leave.
Ye Yunniang comforted the frightened Li An and Cai Shuyi, and coaxed them to sleep.
"Starting tomorrow, I will arrange for someone to invite a famous doctor from the capital to examine Mother's pulse," Jiang Mingzhe said, outlining his plans.
"My husband, it's so good to have you." Without Jiang Mingzhe, Ye Yunniang didn't know what she would do.
Jiang Mingzhe took Li An to fetch a doctor to treat Cai Damei.
Ye Yunniang and Cai Shuyi took care of Cai Damei together, while also packing their luggage.
She saw the letter that Warmth had sent her.
Ye Yunniang asked Qiushuang to find out the address on the letter, and took Qiushuang there.
The address on the letter was a small pharmacy—Chu Ji Pharmacy.
Ye Yunniang and Qiushuang entered the pharmacy.
Chu Nian, behind the counter, greeted them warmly, "Are you here for a medical consultation or to pick up medicine?"
"Excuse me, I'm looking for Chu Nan. Is he here?"
"What business does Madam have with Chu Nan?"
"I'm delivering a letter to a friend at his request."
"What friend?"
Is Chu Nan there?
As he spoke, an elderly man with white hair and beard, walking unsteadily, emerged from the backyard.
Who's looking for me?
"Grandpa, why did you come out?" Chu Nian walked towards Chu Nan and reached out to help him.
"No need to help me." Chu Nan pulled her hand away in disgust. "I'm not so old that I can't walk."
Chu Nan walked to a chair and sat down, looking at Ye Yunniang, "Girl, you were looking for me?"
"I've been asked by Aunt Chu Yuying to deliver a letter to you on her behalf," Ye Yunniang explained, taking out the letter and handing it to Chu Nan with both hands.
Chu Nian snatched it away, ready to tear it to shreds.
"Nian Nian".
"don't want."
Qiu Shuang reacted quickly, stopping Chu Nian and snatching the letter back.
"Who are you, another con artist trying to scam money?" Chu Nian said in an unfriendly tone. "Get lost, we don't have any money."
"I don't know what you mean by 'liar'." Ye Yunniang said to Chu Nian first, then looked at Chu Nan, "Grandma, I was asked by Aunt Chu to deliver a letter for her. If you don't want it, I'll take it with me."
Chu Nan didn't speak, but extended her hand.
Ye Yunniang handed the letter to Chu Nan with both hands and prepared to leave.
"Girl, where do you live?" Chu Nan called out to Ye Yunniang.
Ye Yunniang turned around and gave him her address.
After leaving Chu's Pharmacy, Ye Yunniang told the carriage to go back first, as she wanted to take a walk.
Qiu Shuang followed behind Ye Yunniang, protecting her.
After walking a few steps, a maidservant blocked the path of Ye Yunniang and her servant.
"My young lady invites you in." The maidservant adopted a haughty demeanor.
"I don't know her, I won't see her," Ye Yunniang refused.
The maid frowned, "Do you know who my young lady is?"
