As Jiang Tingjun's wet nurse, Ye Yunniang often carried him and followed Jin Huifang to Qushui Courtyard to see Zhuang Meixue.
Zhuang Meixue liked Jiang Tingjun very much and would hug him for a while every time.
Ye Yunniang had a feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

On the Dragon Boat Festival in May, there is a dragon boat race in Wuhan.
In Jiangcheng, officials and wealthy families would organize dragon boat teams to compete.
This year's dragon boat race coincided with the inauguration of a new prefect, making it even more lively than in previous years.
The Jiang family selected people from the patrol team and servants in the mansion to compete.
This year, both Jiang Mingrui and Jiang Mingshu signed up to participate in order to showcase themselves.
Her husband participated. Jin Huifang took it very seriously and took the initiative to arrange the work of setting up the decorated tent.
The weather was hot in May, so they decided to do this for the convenience of watching the show and also to make money.
The prefectural government will designate a waterfront viewing area and sell it to wealthy merchants in the city.
The Jiang family buys the largest piece of land every year to build a colorful tent for their family members to watch the games.
Jin Huifang asked Zhuang Meixue for a lot of people, and this year the Jiang family's colorful tent was built tall and big.
On the Dragon Boat Festival, it was originally Ye Yunniang's turn to be on duty.

The masters of the Jiang family have all arrived, each accompanied by a large number of servants.
There weren't enough people on the second floor, so one person stayed with each master, and the rest stayed on the first floor.
With so many people, Ye Yunniang was squeezed into a corner. Pear was nowhere to be found.
Ye Yunniang didn't want to be squeezed or have her feet stepped on anymore. She simply walked to the side, hoping to find Cai Damei and Pan'er.
Last time I went back, Cai Damei mentioned that she and Cai Xiaomei had made a promise to watch the dragon boat race together.
Ye Yunniang squeezed through the crowd but couldn't find the person she wanted to see.
Seeing that it was getting late, Ye Yunniang decided to return to the decorated pavilion of the Jiang residence.
As she walked back, Ye Yunniang glanced around casually.
A slightly plump woman dressed in coarse linen clothes caught her eye.
No, to be precise, they were the shoes on the feet of the child the woman was holding in her arms.
The child's shoes looked very familiar.
