She quickly knelt down, saying, "It has nothing to do with my mother; it's just that I harbor resentment."
She pointed at Ye Zhen and said, "Second sister-in-law is a jinx. She caused her mother to fall ill and her grandfather to die right after she was born. She was sent to a village in the south, and then Madam Ye's condition improved."
She married into our family, and then my second brother got into trouble. As a result, I resented her and refused to acknowledge her as my sister-in-law.
Mother was left behind because of what happened on the village, and my second brother... he..."
She seemed too heartbroken to speak.
After a long silence, she choked out, "Even if he has a thousand faults, he is still my own brother, and he loves me the most..."

But she couldn't help but think that if Ye Zhen had been able to keep Yun Zhou's heart when she married into the family, Yun Zhou wouldn't have faked his death three years ago, and that incident at the manor wouldn't have happened.
Perhaps by now he'll already be holding his grandson.
After Ye Zhen was reborn, he analyzed the personalities of many people, including the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.
She stepped forward calmly and said, “Ye Zhen knows that she is of lowly status and is not worthy of the Marquis’s mansion. Now she has even incurred the displeasure of the eldest young lady and the young master. Ye Zhen begs the Marquis to allow Ye Zhen to divorce and leave the mansion.”
