After admiring the night sky, Huaying stretched and went to the kitchen to knead and wash the dough again in preparation for setting up the stall tomorrow.

While working, I remembered a saying that people often say in this world: life is not just about the present, but also about poetry and the distance.

Looking at the roses swaying in the wind in the courtyard, smelling the faint floral fragrance brought by the breeze, with the starry sky above her head and Fu Shiyan working beside her, Huaying thought that this kind of day could be considered a good life.

Many years later, the time Huaying missed most was the days in Taohua Village.

With Fu Shiyan's participation, the preparations were done much faster.

After washing up and lying on the bed, Huaying went over in her mind what she had to do the next day, fearing that she would forget it again. Her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and she soon fell asleep.

"Huaying, Huaying?" Who was calling her? Huaying was looking for the source of the voice in the white fog.

"Huaying." A girl who looked somewhat similar to her, no, much prettier than her, stood in front of her.

"Who are you?" Is it me? But it doesn't look like me. Huaying couldn't tell whether this was a dream or reality.

"I am you and you are me. You are Shen An Ning from the Zuo Mansion, and I am Huaying. From now on, my parents will be your parents. I believe you will be a good eldest lady of the Shen family. We will all be happy. Goodbye, Huaying." The beautiful woman said this and gradually disappeared.

"Hey, come back, come back." Huaying whispered while lying on the bed and immersed in sleep...

Fu Shiyan, who got up early in the morning to prepare for loading the truck, heard groaning coming from Huaying's room. Thinking that Huaying was not feeling well, he pushed the door open to check on her.

Huaying was seen sweating all over her head in her sleep, with her eyes closed and an anxious look on her face, showing that she was in pain.

"Huaying, Huaying." Fu Shiyan called his name in a gentle voice.

Huaying slowly opened her eyes while sleeping, and looked at the handsome man in front of her in a daze, "Huaying, what's wrong with you? Did you have a nightmare?"

Fu Shiyan gently wiped the sweat from her forehead and prepared to pour her some warm water to calm her down.

Huaying held his hand and looked at him helplessly. Fu Shiyan's heart suddenly softened. He sat back next to her, touched her head and said, "I'll pour you some warm water, okay? Mother once said that dreams are the opposite of reality. Don't be afraid. It's okay."

Huaying thought of what the woman in her dream said. So she was Shen Anning, the original owner. What did she mean by "I am you and I, and we will both be happy"? Could it be that she didn't die in the other world, and she became herself?

Huaying, who had just woken up, was a little confused. These thoughts gave her a headache. She gradually came back to her senses when she saw Fu Shiyan coming in with water.

Fu Shiyan fed her some warm water and asked her in a low voice, "Are you feeling better now?"

Huaying nodded and said, "Much better. Fu Shiyan, do you believe in ghosts and gods in the world?" Huaying asked the doubts in her heart. She didn't believe it at first, but how should she explain it now that she is here?

Fu Shiyan shook his head. "I don't know if there are ghosts or gods in the world, but I know that destiny is in our own hands."

Yes, your destiny is in your own hands. Your future path depends on the choices you make.

The two chatted for a while before Huaying got up, washed up and started a new day.

After a while Dongxue also came, and the three of them went to Taohua Town together. They came to the stall and set up the stall together. Business was still as good as before. As the number of customers increased, Huaying's mood gradually brightened.

Shen Nanting sat in front of the window on the second floor, looking at Huaying thoughtfully. He should return to Beijing today, and the leave he applied for from the Hanlin Academy is about to expire. Now that his sister has lost her memory, will it scare her if he recognizes her rashly? Will it make her sicker and make her reject her family more? If he doesn't recognize her and goes back, how will he explain to his parents?

Looking at his younger sister who was so close to him, Shen Nanting was in a dilemma for a moment.

After selling the cold noodles, it was already afternoon. Huaying roughly counted the money and found it was less than twenty taels, which was not a small amount. Looking at the purse, Huaying had a satisfied smile on her face.

"Dongxue, do you want to see Shinuan?" Huaying said to Dongxue, whose little face was rosy under the shade of the tree.

Dongxue's eyes lit up, and she nodded vigorously, remembering that she hadn't seen this little playmate for a long time.

"Let's go see Shi Nuan." Huaying packed up the vegetable bowls and placed them on the cart, then walked towards Tongxin Hall with Dongxue.

When they arrived at the entrance of Tongxin Hall, Huaying asked Dongxue to call Shi Nuan. It was Dongxue's first time to Tongxin Hall. She looked down at the mud on her cloth shoes and nervously pulled the hem of her small clothes. She no longer had the enthusiasm she had when she was selling cold noodles. She looked back at Huaying nervously.

Huaying smiled at her and said, "Shi Nuan would definitely jump for joy if she knew you were here. She even asked me last time why you didn't go play with her."

Dongxue then called out timidly, "Shi Nuan."

Shi Nuan was sorting herbs in the yard. She seemed to hear someone calling her name, so she came to the pharmacy. When she saw that it was Dongxue and Sister Huaying, she happily ran over and hugged Dongxue and Sister Huaying's arms.

"Sister Huaying didn't lie to me. She really brought Dongxue to see me." Shi Nuan usually studies medicine and dries herbs, and doesn't have many playmates.

Dongxue saw that there were dense needle holes on Shi Nuan's arm when she was hugging her, and she panicked. She quickly pulled him up to take a closer look, "Who pricked you? You were so young, how could they prick you?" As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.

Huaying also saw the needle hole on Shi Nuan's arm, and her face suddenly darkened.

He thought to himself, you are a bad guy, Fu Yi, and stood up to go to the inner room to settle the score with Fu Yi.

When Shi Nuan saw that her two sisters cared so much about her, the long-lost warmth made her eyes well up with tears. Looking at Shi Nuan's tears, Hua Ying confirmed her guess and her eyes were filled with anger.

Shi Nuan saw Sister Huaying walking towards the master's room, so she quickly stood up, grabbed her and said in a crying voice, "Sister Huaying, you misunderstood. I made these needle holes myself when I was learning acupuncture."

Huaying frowned as she looked at Xiao Nuan, who was in tears, and said, "You don't have to protect the people who bully you. Don't be afraid. I will talk to your good master."

Dongxue, who looked down upon people who bully old women and the weak, was so angry that her eyes were red. Shi Nuan, who was so moved that she cried and didn't know what to say, happened to see her brother come in, so she quickly motioned for him to come over and persuade Sister Huaying.

Fu Shiyan looked at the three of them, not understanding what was going on for a moment. Shi Nuan raised her arms and cried, "I learned acupuncture on my own, it wasn't a punishment from my master."

Huaying looked at Xiao Nuan's tears and thought that this master was so cruel that he stabbed the child like this and didn't even dare to tell the truth.

Fu Shiyan finally understood what was going on. Looking at Huaying who was protecting her, he said gently, "You really misunderstood Fu Yi. Even if he had a hundred guts, he wouldn't dare to stab Shi Nuan."

After Fu Yi finished examining the patient in the inner room, he stood up and went to the lobby, only to see his beloved disciple crying. He then looked at the people standing next to her and thought that Fu Shiyan and Hua Ying were talking about his beloved disciple.

With a serious face, he asked Shi Nuan, "Disciple, who of them was mean to you? Tell me and I will seek justice for you."

Shi Nuan cried even harder when she saw so many people caring about her. Then she wanted to laugh again. The senior brother Yao Tong who was standing beside her finally couldn't stand it anymore and told Shi Nuan what happened again.

Fu Yi pulled up Shi Nuan's arm and saw that it was covered with needle holes. He asked angrily, "You can't stab your senior brother, it will hurt so much if you stab yourself."

The eldest senior brother at the side rolled his eyes, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Master, I have been pierced, and I am in pain too."

Everyone looked in the direction of his voice, only to see more needle holes on his arms. They didn't know what to say for a moment.

"However, my junior sister has already learned acupuncture, so these are nothing." The eldest senior brother said, what's wrong with a grown man getting pricked.

Xiao Nuan nodded and said, "Acupuncture... I have learned it."

Fu Yi glanced at Shi Nuan and touched her head, then turned and went to the inner room to continue diagnosing the patient.

Fu Shiyan sat down to drink tea while the eldest senior brother went back to the counter to pound medicine.

Huaying and Dongxue had a false alarm, and the happiest person was Shi Nuan. She felt that she was the happiest person.

Huaying applied ointment to Shi Nuan's arm and took the two of them to Yue Niang's clothing store, where they bought two sets of clothes and two pairs of new cloth shoes for each of them.

Dongxue waved her hands repeatedly and said that she no longer wanted anything from Sister Huaying. Since she met Sister Huaying, she had given her a lot of things, so how could she have the nerve to accept them.

Huaying saw Dongxue's panic and patted her on the shoulder, saying, "You little girl are paid, and you deserve these. Even if you do nothing, you deserve these things."

Then he touched Shi Nuan's head and said, "You two are my little sisters. You rely on me and trust me. Likewise, I rely on you and need you. When my business becomes prosperous in the future, I will give you ten maids. What do these clothes mean to you?"

Huaying thought that in order to make them feel at ease to accept the clothes, she had to paint a big picture for them.

Dongxue and Shi Nuan's eyes lit up, it turned out that Sister Huaying also needed them.

Yue Niang came over and hugged Huaying's arm and said deliberately, "Sister Huaying, I also need you to buy clothes for me."

Huaying smiled and said, "That's fine, you can wear whatever clothes you want in Yue Niang's shop."

After hearing Huaying's words, everyone laughed. At this moment, the friendship between the four of them was quietly sublimated and became more firm.

Many years later, Yue Niang said to Yue Xing, "You are not as kind to me as Hua Ying."
