After five years.
I guess everyone has almost forgotten what happened back then...
Only the Yang family will never forget.
When Yang Huaijin saw the bloody handwriting on the cloth, many thoughts raced through his mind. After hearing what Yang Zhao said, the blood in his eyes deepened. "Given my eldest brother's personality, if he didn't report this to father, it can only mean one thing: he must have discovered something. The most likely possibility is that someone close to father is a traitor, or... someone has planted someone close to father."
Yang Zhao also thought of this possibility.
"Sister, leave this matter to me. I will investigate it." Yang Huaijin clenched the spider cloud brocade in his hand, and a stern look flashed in his eyes.
Yang Zhao shook her head gently. "I'm telling you this because I want to talk you through it first. Let me handle the investigation, and you can focus on preparing for the Spring Examination."

Wei couldn't help but complain and grumble, but she still had hope, thinking that it would be her turn eventually.
But she waited and waited, and in the end all she got was the news that the third young master had already fallen asleep in his own yard.
Wei was so angry that his face turned black.
But just then.
A little maid brought a box of cakes. "Madam, the Third Young Master ordered me to bring these. He said...that they're for you to have as a snack tomorrow morning. He won't be here to pay his respects to you if it's too late."
