Well, it's just a family with all sorts of everyday troubles, and the original owner just wanted everyone to be alright.
The most urgent matter right now is the granddaughter's situation. The youngest son and his wife are doing business outside the area and have bought 100 acres of fertile land, so they are living a good life.
Sun Jin, the grandson, studies hard, hoping to bring honor to the family. However, because he has been too well protected, he believes that there are only good people in the world, and this kind of personality makes him easily deceived.
Sun Yue, the granddaughter, studied with her younger brother and longed to meet people who could read and write. One day at a market, she met a scholar.
Although scholars receive a monthly stipend from the imperial court, it's not much at all.
In addition, although there is a tax exemption for fifty acres of land, the prerequisite is that you must have land, otherwise people will call you a poor scholar.
This scholar came from a single-parent family. His mother had raised him with great difficulty and regarded him as her lifeblood. She always believed that her son would soar to great heights in the future and that he should marry a daughter of an official no matter what. She disliked the woman who had run away with her son.
This is normal. A woman who elopes becomes a concubine. No one likes a woman who elopes with someone. Elopement means that you are a concubine.
She's just a concubine, nothing more. Isn't it normal to make her do housework?
Sun Yue herself felt that she had encountered a wicked mother-in-law, but fortunately she had a good husband. In reality... that person was just looking for someone to take care of them for free, thinking that there would be money, but who knew there was nothing at all.
Later, Sun Yue made a living by embroidering for others. The man kept asking for money and even sent her to perform for money. Then, the man became involved with the housekeeper's daughter, and Sun Yue, in unbearable pain, jumped off the bridge and ended her life.
That scholar wasn't sad at all; he married the daughter of an official, and from then on, his official career flourished...
Years later, when Sun Jingao found out, he wanted to take revenge, but he didn't expect that the other party had even forgotten his sister's name.
She was just a concubine not worth remembering.
This is the story of Sun Yue's life.
In truth, it was her own fault, but as the original owner of the grandmother's body, she always hoped to bring her back.
Thinking of this, Mo Yan got up and went to Sun Yue's room, where she saw someone lying on the bed.
"Sun Yue, what's wrong?"
"Grandmother, I..."
"Men, drag her out!"
Mo Yan spoke with a dark face, and the others quickly went over. When they lifted the blanket, they found that it was not Miss Sun Yue at all, but her maid Cai Lian.
The reason Sun Yue would disregard social norms and elope with a man is because this girl kept saying that if you love someone, you should be brave.
Shouldn't a loyal maid in another family stop her mistress from seeing other men?
"Madam, it was Miss who told me to do this."
"Lock him up and slap him ten times."
After saying that, Mo Yan took Sun Jin out the door. In the original owner's memory, the scholar always waited for Sun Yue by the lake, and they would eat snacks and compose poems together.
Sun Jin was a little confused. "Grandmother, where are we going?"
"Go find your sister. She ran away secretly. I want to see where she went."
“It’s not a big deal for my sister to go out and play. Grandmother, please don’t blame her.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his sister chatting and laughing with a man not far away; their heads were almost touching.
"elder sister!"
Hearing her younger brother's voice, Sun Yue turned around and saw him and her grandmother. She was immediately terrified, her face turning pale. The man turned and ran, showing no sense of responsibility whatsoever.
Sun Yue suddenly became stammering, "Grandmother..."
"You still know I'm your grandmother? How is that possible?"
Sun Yue turned around to look at Young Master Lin, but when she looked back, he was nowhere to be seen. Her face turned even paler, and her eyes were filled with disbelief.
"Granddaughter...Granddaughter came here to admire the flowers."
"Is that so? Then let's go back."
Mo Yan took Sun Yue home and immediately dragged her to her parents' memorial tablets at the back of the house, saying, "Kneel down!"
Sun Yue obeyed and immediately knelt down.
"Grandmother, your granddaughter was wrong."
“Where did I go wrong? Sun Yue, I’m asking you this because I want you to tell the truth. I won’t be angry no matter what you say, but if you don’t tell the truth, then I definitely will be angry, understand?”
Sun Yue nodded and kowtowed to Mo Yan.
"Grandmother, I was wrong. I was just reciting poems with Young Master Lin."
We are mutually in love.
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw her grandmother come over with a feather duster, grab her hand, and hit her hard a few times!
"Mutual affection? If you're truly in love, why didn't you come to propose? Why did you just show off your intimacy in front of so many people? What do you think others will think?"
If they were truly in love, the man wouldn't try to hold her hand in public!
“Grandmother, it’s not like that…” Sun Yue tried to explain. “Young Master Lin said that it’s not that he doesn’t want to propose marriage, but he hasn’t passed the imperial examination yet, and if he were to propose marriage rashly, I’m afraid you wouldn’t agree.”
Young Master Lin also said that he would definitely marry her after she graduated from high school.
"High school? How long?" Mo Yan sneered. "Five years, ten years, or twenty years? Do you think you can wait that long? Besides, do you even know where he's from, where he lives, how many people are in his family, whether his parents agree, or if he's engaged? You know nothing, how can you be in love with him? If he's engaged, and you're still in love with him, then you're breaking up someone else's engagement!"
