Li put down the needle and thread in her hand, took the thing from the maid, opened it and took a look, her mood was very complicated.

Looking at the amulet in her hand, Li suddenly remembered how much suffering and pain she had endured in order to obtain this amulet.

I still remember that when Yun Ran was ten years old, he had a high fever. He saw a doctor, took medicine, and used folk remedies handed down in the village, but the fever did not go away.

At that time, she didn't know who told her that as long as she went to a temple fifty miles away and prayed for a talisman, the person who wore the talisman would be safe and sound throughout his life, free from illness and disaster.

She knew in her heart that this method might not work, but she was grasping at straws and was determined to give it a try regardless of whether it worked or not.

Therefore, she ignored the old lady Li's obstruction, and after being beaten by her, she resolutely went to the temple to ask for a talisman.

Li An did not accompany her on the way to the temple, because people said that only amulets obtained with sincerity would be useful, so she did not let her husband accompany her.

Besides, even if Li An wanted to go with her, Old Lady Li would not let him go, so she set out on the journey to the temple to ask for amulets.

Although fifty miles may not seem far, it is still very far for her, a woman who has never left home.

She didn't know the exact route, she only knew it was in the south of the village. So she set off with four steamed buns and a pot of water, knowing the general direction.

She tripped countless times along the way, her shoes were torn, and her feet were covered with blisters. That would have been fine, but when she asked someone for directions, she was almost molested.

Fortunately, when she left home, she took a kitchen knife for self-defense and injured someone before escaping. After that, she was careful when asking for directions and only asked women and the elderly.

But this brings up a problem: many women and elderly people have never traveled far and are not very clear about how to get to the temple.

In the end, she didn't know how many people she asked, and after spending two days and one night, she finally found the temple.

When she arrived at the temple, she knelt down and kowtowed devoutly, explained to the abbot the reason for her visit, took out the private money that she and Li An had saved for a year, and asked for a talisman.

When she took the amulet back and Yun Ran carried it with him, a miracle happened. The next day Yun Ran's fever subsided, and three days later, Yun Ran was full of energy and did not look like he was sick at all.

Later, she told Yun Ran to carry the amulet with her so that it could protect her safety.

Yun Ran didn't listen to her much on other matters, but he obeyed her on this matter. From then on, the amulet was always hung around Yun Ran's neck.

When she learned that Yun Ran had found her biological parents and became the daughter of the prime minister, she thought she would never have the chance to see this amulet again in her lifetime.

Unexpectedly, things change so fast and the amulet returned to her hands.

"Auntie, do you want to see the young lady of the Xiangfu?"

When Li heard the voice beside her, she came back to her senses from her memories. She wanted to say no, but the words changed and became "it would be nice to see you."

After the maid left, Li no longer had the heart to make small clothes and had the sewing basket put away.

She was willing to see Yun Ran, not because she still had a mother-daughter relationship with her, but because she wanted to see how cruel Yun Ran's heart was and how she could leave home without caring about anything.

Didn’t she think about how worried her family would be and how sad she would be?

In order to find her, she asked her eldest son Mingfei to leave home. However, more than two years have passed since then, and there has been no news of Mingfei since he left home to find his sister. No one knows where he is, and it is not clear whether he is still alive.

In addition, the most important point is how could she treat Yueyue like that.

Every time she thought of Yueyue's suffering after leaving the Prime Minister's Mansion, she felt so heartbroken.

While Li was thinking about something, Yun Ran outside the mansion was already getting impatient.

She had originally wanted to meet Li and be nice to her, but now it seems that is not necessary.

Li dared to make her wait for so long. If Li could not fulfill her wish and let her smoothly enter the Prince An's Mansion as a cousin, she would never be polite to Li.

Qiao'er, who was standing nearby waiting for instructions, couldn't help but shudder when she saw the vicious look on her young lady's face.

She didn't understand why her young lady was so determined to come to Prince An's Mansion, but she was clear about one thing: if the young lady couldn't get what she wanted, she would be the one who would suffer in the end.

After all, the young lady is angry and has to vent it, and she is the best outlet.

She couldn't help but pray that the lady from Prince An's Mansion would not only meet her young lady, but also fulfill her young lady's wish, so that the young lady would be happy and she would be spared from being beaten and scolded.

Yun Ran didn't know that Qiao'er was so afraid of her. She only knew that Qiao'er would let her beat and scold her so that she could experience the joy of having control over other people's life and death.

But at this moment, all she was thinking about was what to say when she saw Li, and how to make Li soften her heart and forgive her for running away from home without saying goodbye.

"Miss, the people from the palace have come out."

The door of Prince An's Mansion opened. This time, it was still opened by the doorman. However, after the door was opened, the doorman said to the person behind him in a flattering manner: "Sister Xi Que, that is the carriage of the young lady from the Xiangfu Mansion."

Then a girl came out. She was Xi Que, the maid who served Li.

The magpie walked to the carriage, bowed, and said, "Miss Yun, my aunt wants to see you."

"How come Li...your aunt doesn't know my identity?"

"To reply Miss Yun, I know."

"Since you know this clearly, why don't you come and greet me in person?"

When the magpie heard this, he was a little confused and didn't know how to respond.

She wondered if there was something wrong with the young lady's brain. Her aunt was the legitimate mistress of Prince An's Mansion and the most beloved youngest daughter in the old lady's heart. Even the prince could not compare to her aunt's status in the old lady's heart.

But as a mere young lady from a prime minister's family, how could she be worthy enough to have her aunt come to greet her in person?

She only thought about this in her heart but didn't dare say it out loud.
