When Seventeen was redeemed, the other women in the brothel all marveled at her good fortune.

For a courtesan to marry a suitable husband is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

"Ye Xiuyuan and Jiang Ranran are very close. They must know that I am an old acquaintance of Seventeen Niang. They deliberately brought her to find me so that I could stay in the Ye family."

Jiang Mianmian guessed, "I just don't know why he kept me here? Is it because he sees that Old Madam Ye values ​​me and wants to scheme in the Ye family? Or is it because he sees that I have many interesting things? The gambling house owner must have arrested me for that reason."

"Never mind, go to sleep. We'll find out when we go tomorrow."

Jiu Niang patted her gently, as if coaxing a child.

Jiang Mianmian found it both funny and helpless. She wanted to say that she was no longer a child, but her body wouldn't obey her, and she fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyes.

"This child has lost weight from exhaustion."

Thinking about having to get up early to go to the Ye family tomorrow, Jiu Niang got up with her medicine box and gathered everyone together. "Mianmian didn't have time to tell you all the details just now. If you're not sleepy, I'll tell you about what happened these past few days."

Mianmian's trip down the mountain wasn't just for personal matters and to punish the Jiang family; she also collected many things for everyone to use later.

With mudslides and being chased by thugs, she had to explain the situation to everyone after such a dangerous ordeal.

She won't tolerate anyone who dares to be ungrateful in the future!

How could Qi Niang and the others sleep? They all stared wide-eyed, listening intently.

After hearing this, Qi Niang burst into tears, "What kind of thing is this? A girl who's only ten years old, taking such a big risk, how could she be so brave!"

Lin Hu and Lin Bao were anxious. "This child went down the mountain by herself. Can Ninth Sister persuade her to take us with her next time? That way, we can take care of her if anything happens."

"Exactly, we just happened to run into the Ye family this time. What if we don't meet any kind people next time?"

"That fairy must be fake, right? Why didn't she show herself and save her when she fainted?"

Seeing that they were all genuinely worried, Jiu Niang felt much better. She opened the box and said, "How could it be fake? This is the elixir given by the fairy, called the Cleansing Pill. After taking it, it can cleanse the marrow and strengthen the bones. Let's each take one. Taking good care of ourselves is the only way to truly lighten Mianmian's burden."

She covered for Jiang Mianmian, saying, "The fairy only took Mianmian as her disciple and taught her some fairy arts. There are natural disasters everywhere now, and the fairy is going to save people in various places. Mianmian is just talented and had a precognitive dream, which is why the fairy took a liking to her."

As she spoke, she felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

This child is too tired.

"That's right, why is this elixir so bitter?"

Seventh Sister couldn't cry anymore; she frowned as she smelled the bitterness.

Twenty-Five tightly closed her eyes, stretching out the hand holding the Cleansing Pill, while her other hand forcefully pinched the hand holding the elixir and forced it into her mouth. "Twenty-Five is not a burden, waaaah, ugh, so bitter~"

She ate it all, so how could the others be outdone? They all pinched their noses and forced themselves to swallow.

The next day, before leaving, Jiang Mianmian put a lot more things into the cave.

Since they have the excuse of being fairies, they wouldn't be surprised if she came up with something else.

The two shouldered their backpacks and headed straight for the intersection where they had parted ways with Wei San the day before.

From afar, you could see him waiting there in a horse-drawn carriage.

Jiang Mianmian walked over quickly, "Brother Wei, why are you here so early? Have you been waiting long? Have you eaten?"

A barrage of questions followed. Wei San smiled and lifted the curtain, "Miss Jiang, Miss Jiu, come in and talk."

He helped the two people into the car, and before he could speak, an oil-paper umbrella and two strange objects were thrust out of the car. "What are these?"

"This is bread and milk."

Jiang Mianmian also crawled out and helped put the umbrella on the stand. She then taught him to tear open the **, saying, "Here, have a taste."

He wanted to say that he had already eaten, but the bread smelled so sweet and delicious that Wei San couldn't resist taking a bite.

"Oh, there's water flowing out of here... it's turned into sauce?"

The bread is soft and fragrant, and the filling is sweet and sour, like the osmanthus jam in a pastry shop, but not quite the same flavor; it's more like fruit!

Wei San took another big gulp of milk. "It smells so good! Where did you buy this? I'll go buy some too! It must be expensive, right?"

It tastes better than any milk he's ever had before!

Jiang Mianmian climbed back into the carriage and settled in before saying, "There's peach jam inside. If you like it, I'll give you some more later. These are all things given by the Blessing Fairy. They're celestial delicacies that can't be bought outside, so there's no distinction between them."

"The most expensive things are the ones you can't buy. Miss Jiang, don't give them to me. Keep them. I see they're well-wrapped; they should last a long time."

Wei San was quite content. As a guard, he was already very fortunate to be able to get two kinds of food.

He drove the carriage slowly, saying, "This road is easy to travel. I wonder how long it will take for you to get back to the cave, young lady?"

"It'll only take a quarter of an hour."

Jiang Mianmian estimated that riding an electric mountain bike would take 15 minutes, while walking would take almost twice as long.

"That's quite close. If the girls want to come and go as they please, I'll drive them around!"

"Row."

The group chatted as they walked, and soon they saw the Ye Family Manor.

As they got closer, the sounds from the doorway became clearer.

"Ranran, do you even know the young master of the Ye family? Why haven't you come out yet after waiting for so long?"

"Mother, can you please stop arguing? The Ye family is a large and influential family, and they have their own rules. Of course, we have to report up the chain of command. How can they expect us to come out and greet us immediately?"

"Alright, Mom is really too tired. I almost fell to my death on the way here."

"Stop arguing! Can anyone be more tired than San'er? He's coughing up blood!"

Jiang Mianmian lifted a corner of the carriage curtain, and sure enough, it was the Jiang family.

On the way, she felt the tracking Gu's influence growing stronger; it turned out they had found her.

Jiu Niang also frowned and looked over.

Ye Family Village is hidden in the mountains and forests. Only one road has been cleared at the gate to facilitate the passage of horse-drawn carriages.

Both sides were lined with dense trees, and large drops of water pelted down.

The Jiang family consisted of three men and three women of unknown origin, so the gatekeeper naturally wouldn't let them in to take shelter from the rain.

They had no choice but to hide under the tree, which made them feel slightly better, since none of them were wearing raincoats.

His clothes were tattered, and his exposed skin was stained with blue, purple, and red blood.

"That's pathetic, tsk tsk."

A stove was burning inside the carriage, and Jiang Mianmian felt it was still a bit hot, so she pulled the curtain open even wider.

I grabbed a small tangerine, peeled and ate it as I went. The tangerine was sweet and refreshing, and the performance outside the window was wonderful.

Jiang Ranran lowered her head, wanting to shout, "He deserved it! Who told you all to come along!"

However, this was at the Ye family's doorstep, and she wanted to leave a good impression.

She could only say, "Father, don't worry. The Ye family has a family doctor. After Brother Ye leads us in, let him come and take a look at Third Brother. He will definitely be able to cure him."

The gatekeeper glanced at her in surprise, wondering to himself where this young lady came from, with such an arrogant tone, daring to order Doctor Cheng around so casually? You should know that Doctor Cheng is not so easy to talk to!
