"He and my son are playing here, I need to find out what's going on?"
"Fatty Cui, tell Grandma, what happened today?"
Aunt Xie asked her grandson, "We must make things clear today, otherwise everyone will think that it was your grandson who harmed Tiedan."
The grandson was already bullied by the neighborhood kids because his parents were away from home all year round.
"I took some sesame candy to eat, and Tiedan tried to snatch it. I didn't give it to him, and he fell to the ground."
"It's just a piece of sesame candy. What's wrong with giving him one?"
The woman got angry. If Fatty Cui had given it to her, Tie Dan wouldn't have fainted.
Aunt Xie had a fiery temper and immediately began to lecture the woman.
"That sounds nice, but why don't you give my grandson a piece of sesame candy?"
Ye Zhaozhao never expected that it was caused by a piece of sesame candy.
No one tried to intervene when they saw the woman arguing fiercely with Aunt Xie.
This woman married into the family along with Aunt Xie's daughter-in-law.
Aunt Xie was known for doting on her daughter-in-law, while her mother-in-law would find all sorts of ways to torment her every day.
Over time, the woman came to hate both Aunt Xie and her daughter-in-law.
If there were no comparisons, the woman wouldn't feel bad. This woman and Aunt Xie's family have been at odds for a long time, and everyone is used to it.
——
That day, Ye Zhaozhao came to school for class. Since she started working at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, she has been making time to attend classes and then returning to her dormitory after class.
They saw that Wen Qiaoling's eyes were red, clearly she had been crying. Liu Xiujuan was comforting her, and Ye Zhaozhao went over to her.
"What's wrong?"
Wen Qiaoling didn't know what to say, but then she thought of something and looked at Ye Zhaozhao with hope in her eyes.
"Zhaozhao, I remember you told me you could treat illnesses. Could you go and check on my grandmother for me?"
Knowing that Wen Qiaoling's grandmother was sick, Ye Zhaozhao agreed.
Wen Qiaoling was relieved, and the two of them set off for the Wen family after class.
On the way, Ye Zhaozhao learned that Wen's father had recently married a new woman.
Wen's mother went abroad, and ever since Wen's father married this woman, he has not allowed Wen Qiaoling to come home.
Even her grandmother wouldn't allow her to see it anymore, given Wen Qiaoling's ordeal.
Ye Zhaozhao expressed her sympathy. The two arrived at the Wen family's house, where two women came out.
Looking at their figures, Ye Zhaozhao felt inexplicably familiar.
As they approached, the two people recognized Ye Zhaozhao, and Su Ningning's expression changed drastically.
"It's you? What are you doing here?"
Su's mother also looked a little unhappy. Su Yushu had suffered at the hands of Ye Zhaozhao before.
She had finally found Wen's father, so she couldn't afford to make any mistakes.
"She's my classmate, she's coming to visit, is there any problem?"
Su's mother was a cunning old woman. Seeing Wen Qiaoling protecting Ye Zhaozhao so much, she pulled her daughter along and looked at Wen Qiaoling, saying...
"Qiaoling, this is your home. It's only right that you want to bring your classmates back for a visit. Come on in."
Wen Qiaoling ignored her and pulled Ye Zhaozhao inside. Wen's father looked at Wen Qiaoling.
He was disgusted by his rebellious daughter and would immediately criticize her.
"Why are you arguing with your Aunt Sun again? Don't you know?"
Your Aunt Sun talks about you every day, how can you be so ungrateful?
Wen Qiaoling was so angry she almost laughed. Was she ungrateful? Her grandmother had been sick for so long.
It was this woman who stopped him from taking him to the hospital.
"Alright, stop talking about her. It's rare for the child to come home."
"Qiaoling, Auntie made your favorite ramen. Come and sit down with your classmate to eat together."
Sun Fangfang quickly stepped in to smooth things over, while Su Ningning stood to the side, looking obedient, and spoke to Wen Qiaoling.
"Qiaoling, please stop talking to Uncle Wen. He's getting old and shouldn't get angry. We daughters should think about him."
"Look, Ningning is more sensible than you."
Ye Zhaozhao could tell at a glance that Sun Fangfang and Su Ningning approached Wen's father with ulterior motives.
Mr. Wen couldn't see it at all, and kept blaming Wen Qiaoling.
"Since she's so wonderful, just treat her like your daughter."
Mr. Wen was quite angry, but Wen Qiaoling didn't care about him. Seeing that she was about to pull Ye Zhaozhao upstairs, Mr. Wen spoke up.
"Come and eat first."
"No, I'm afraid it might be poisonous."
Upon reaching the second floor, Ye Zhaozhao saw an elderly woman lying on the bed, looking extremely weak. Ye Zhaozhao first took her pulse.
"How about it?"
Ye Zhaozhao switched to her other hand, and after she had finished with both hands, she spoke to Wen Qiaoling.
"Your grandmother became like this because of a slow-acting poison."
"A slow-acting poison?"
Several people flashed through Wen Qiaoling's mind: her father, Sun Fangfang, and Su Ningning.
In her opinion, the mother and daughter were the prime suspects.
"Yes, thankfully we arrived in time. If the poison had spread throughout my body, even I wouldn't have been able to help."
Upon hearing this, Wen Qiaoling was extremely glad that she had brought Ye Zhaozhao with her today.
Ye Zhaozhao immediately began acupuncture to detoxify the old lady, and the old lady regained consciousness after the acupuncture was completed.
"Qiaoling, is that you?"
“It’s me, Grandma.”
Seeing that her grandmother had regained consciousness, Wen Qiaoling introduced Ye Zhaozhao to her.
Upon learning that Ye Zhaozhao was a doctor, the old lady wanted to sit up to greet her, but Wen Qiaoling stopped her.
"Grandma, don't sit up."
Ye Zhaozhao wasn't surprised. Seeing that she couldn't hide it from her grandmother, Wen Qiaoling told her about being poisoned with a slow-acting poison.
Anger flashed in the old woman's eyes; she never expected to raise such an ungrateful child.
