Xu Youran kept backing away. How could she drink poison? No, absolutely not!
"What, scared? Too late!"
Mo Yan had someone force-feed her the liquid.
"This medicine won't kill you, but if you utter even one word related to our family, you will suffer unbearable pain."
Throw her out, throw her far away.
Xu Youran was thrown out and given a bundle containing twenty taels of silver.
She returned to the Xu family, but the Xu family was not as prosperous as before. Xu Wei had long been dismissed because of what had happened before, and the family could only live on air at home. Xu Wei's son had also lost his official position and was preparing to return to his hometown.
Seeing Xu Youran return, he was thinking of asking her something.
Xu Wei kicked him out immediately.
"Get out of here right now. We don't know you. You have no relation to us."
"You're so lucky you don't know how to enjoy it; you might as well die of stupidity."
Xu Wei was speechless. It was so much better in the Xiao family. Those things would eventually pass, and everything would come to a conclusion.
Even if things aren't as good as before, they're definitely not worse. Now that their family is in dire straits, everyone's kicking them while they're down. They'd love for them to get into trouble so they can laugh at them. And with this brat doing this, he definitely can't take her in.
"Enjoying happiness? How could it be enjoying happiness?"
Xu Youran felt very wronged. She hadn't enjoyed any happiness at all. She had been having a particularly bad time these past few years, eating vegetarian food every day and almost turning into a rabbit. Her yard was also empty.
"You don't feel like you're enjoying life because you don't know how good you have it. Since you don't want to live a good life, then get out."
Xu Youran was driven away again, and the entire Xu family boarded a carriage and left. They were going back to their hometown, where at least they could still make a living.
They certainly couldn't survive here; they still had to keep living.
The road ahead is still difficult, and they will have to face everything.
Xu Youran wanted to tell everyone that the Xiao family had treated her badly, but she couldn't utter a single word. She couldn't make a sound, and it felt like a knife was cutting into her throat. It was incredibly painful, and she couldn't bear the pain. She really couldn't bear it.
She suddenly remembered what her mother-in-law had said earlier, and she left the place in a panic.
She thought she was highly skilled in martial arts and could make a living by performing, but in reality, she had no skills at all.
She wanted to find some work, but she couldn't get the dishes clean enough, so she washed clothes for others, but she tore the clothes.
She was filled with all sorts of disappointments and finally wanted to return to the Xiao family mansion. Only then did she realize that what her father had said was true, and that she was truly unaware of her good fortune.
Mo Yan allowed her to return, but from then on, she had to work in order to eat.
The reason Mo Yan asked her to come back was for Yu Die's sake.
Everything she went through before was witnessed by others.
Yu Die is a prince's consort; she can't really have a mother who shows her face in public.
From then on, she worked in the courtyard. To avoid it, she would pretend to be sick, and when she was sick, Mo Yan would have someone clean her up.
Later, she really did get sick, but Yudie didn't believe it.
It's just that Yudie believed it and was very worried the previous times, but when she came back, it turned out to be fake, which was extremely unfair.
This time, Yudie didn't believe it either.
Mo Yan finally allowed Yu Die to return for a brief meeting. She was told that as a princess consort, she only needed to be careful and didn't need to observe mourning...
Later, Yu Die realized that she was actually quite cold-blooded. She felt sad when her mother passed away, but she didn't feel the pain to the bone. Only when her grandmother passed away did she feel unbearable pain...

Xiao Minghui has never been a very good husband.
He failed to notice his wife Xu Youran's emotional changes, and trusted Lin Ling too much, thinking she was very weak and a vulnerable woman who needed protection.
He's blind when it comes to relationships.
He was not a good father either, and he failed miserably in raising his two daughters.
Later, he himself didn't want to face women anymore; he only had one ideal, which was to be a good official.
He was unwilling to go to the capital; he preferred to stand up for the people outside, to plead for them, to reach the ears of the emperor, and to help them see the light of day.
He could not be considered a good man, but he was a good official.
The people trusted and loved him. No matter where he went or what official position he held, he always put the people first, protected them, and stood up for them.
Later, his relationship with his daughter was neither good nor bad. They would write letters, but they wouldn't contact each other often, and he felt that this was just fine.
He always listened to his mother and knew he couldn't be a high-ranking official; he wasn't smart enough and wasn't tactful enough in dealing with people.
If he were to rise any higher, he would definitely offend a lot of people, and he also felt that he was not suited to the atmosphere of the imperial court.
That's good; he can help the people and stay out there all the time.
Now, he serves as an official alone, facing everything on his own, and is able to fulfill his dreams.
Xiao Minghui was very happy and felt that it was all worthwhile. He was genuinely happy and truly believed that it was all worthwhile.

When did Yu Die meet Wei Xin? Probably on that day.
That morning, someone came looking for my grandmother, saying he was her senior fellow apprentice.
Grandma saw the grandfather's disgusted expression, and then she noticed the two people next to him, one about her age and the other a little younger.
Grandmother took the two brothers back to her hometown with her, teaching them kung fu, principles of life, and how to conduct themselves in society.
As for that grandfather, he simply dropped off a ring and ran away, saying that he could finally go and see the world.
Later, she and Wei Xin fell in love, and Wei Xin knelt before his grandmother to ask for her hand in marriage.
After being beaten by his grandmother, the grandfather came to visit in person.
Only then did she realize that Wei Xin was a prince, that grandfather was the retired emperor, and that child was the future crown prince.
When she got married, her grandmother personally combed her hair and gave her a grand wedding procession.
He gave her a huge dowry and told her that as long as she had confidence, she had nothing to fear.
There's no need to pretend to be kind. Just do whatever makes you comfortable. If Wei Xin doesn't like the real her, then divorce her and go home. She'll always be there for you.
Wei Xin always knew what the real her was like and what she was thinking.
Neither of them are kind people, but they are honest with each other.
Later, the two of them really did live out their lives together, had two little children, and, like their grandmother, lived a secluded life in the mountains.
We once traveled together across mountains and rivers, watching the clouds drift and gather.
They had also experienced a palace coup together and protected the young emperor together.
Later, they took their child and went to a faraway place.
Xiao Yudie felt that her first half of life was filled with too much sorrow and disappointment, so she later had her grandmother, and that brought her a lifetime of sweetness.
She felt that her life had been really, really good, and she was very happy.
She hopes to be her grandmother's granddaughter again in her next life, so she can stay by her grandmother's side and be happy for her forever.
