The cannon fodder heiress trembled with fear after being recognized as a member of her family.

When Han Cuiyin saw Wang Mama's face, she couldn't help but recall the days she spent at the Han residence.

Granny Wang was a confidante of Princess Mingxia, and relying on her mistress's power, she bullied people quite a bit.

Those illegitimate daughters even had to fawn over her.

Princess Mingxia controlled the food, clothing, and daily necessities of everyone in the Han household. As a favorite, she naturally received many gifts.

On one occasion, she withheld her monthly allowance and the clothes she wore to a banquet.

When they went to argue with Princess Mingxia, this person turned the tables on them.

Their feud began on the way from Yanjiacun to the capital.

Back then, she was arrogant and naive, dreaming of making it big every day. When that day finally came, she was so proud of herself that her eyes practically reached for the sky.

She completely ignored the instructions the Yan family gave her, and even misinterpreted them as the Yan family not wanting her to do well.

She genuinely believed that if she went to the capital to become a daughter of a wealthy and powerful family, the servants would fawn over her.

"Does she really think she's a young lady? How dare she talk to the old lady like that! She won't even take off her veil when she gets to the cabin. Is she ashamed to be seen like this?"

Wang Mama just frowned, and a maid-like person started to stand up for her.

"You're the one who's shameful! When my mother was pregnant with me, she was still the Madam of the Han family. What do I have to be ashamed of?" Han Cuiyin retorted sarcastically, "I'm afraid there's someone else who's ashamed."

"Alright, Cuiying, let Miss Yang rest!"

Granny Wang deliberately emphasized the name and glanced at Han Cuiyin with disdain, as if she were something dirty.

"Halt! Cuiying, is that you? Do you know my name? What, do servants of wealthy families not need to avoid using their masters' names?"

Han Cuiyin didn't give them a chance to speak, "Princess Mingxia comes from the Xu Prince's Mansion, so she shouldn't make such a low-level mistake. Is it because she's getting old and forgetful?"

Since she wasn't in the capital, no matter how powerful they were, they wouldn't dare to do anything to her openly.

"What happened?" Han Song asked at the door, without entering Han Cuiyin's room.

"Uncle Han, they look down on me. I, a country bumpkin, have disgraced you, Lord Han. Even a maid can bully me. I'm going back to Yan Family Village. I'm not going to the capital!"

For some unknown reason, Han Song seemed to treat her differently in both his past and present lives, never mocking her even though she was as stupid as a pig.

Could this be something his own father instructed him to do?

Her biological father still harbored feelings for her mother and took great care of her, his daughter, though he dared not show it openly.

In an instant, Han Cuiyin's mind raced, and her imagination ran wild.

She only realized how humiliating it was later.

"Why don't you give her a name, Miss Yang?" Han Song learned the whole story from Han Cuiyin and made his decision without even asking Wang Mama and the others.

"Then let's call her Da Ni! Okay, you guys go out, I'm going to sleep."

With someone backing them up, Granny Wang and the others could only swallow their anger and dared not confront Han Song directly.

Han Song held a low position in the Han family, but no one dared to offend him.

He was the only person in the Han family who did not have a contract of indenture; to be precise, he was a distant relative of the Han family.

She was someone who had been by Han Zhen's side for over twenty years, and their relationship was even deeper than that of Han Zhen and his wife.

Even the second master of the Han family didn't have the same face as Han Song in front of Han Zhen.

Cuiying glared at Han Cuiyin with a sinister look, then could only agree and turn to leave.

After things quieted down, Han Cuiyin took off her veil.

"It seems I overlooked too many things in my past life. Is Han Song really that authoritative?"

After a long day on the road, I felt good in spirits, but my body was a bit tired.

The wooden fish that I strike every night is actually not suitable to be taken out at this time.

Tonight, I can only rely on sleep to replenish my energy.

When Han Cuiyin woke up again, it was noon the next day.

She felt more at ease during this time as no one bothered her.

She took a yellow, ball-shaped object from her waist, and as it grew larger, it turned out to be the wooden fish that had once been covered in cracks.

One of the six large cracks has been repaired by the sycamore tree, but many smaller cracks still exist in every corner of the wooden fish.

"It seems that once we get to the capital, we'll need to find a beautiful and secluded place to heal you!"

This wooden fish has been with her for hundreds of years; it is her natal magic weapon and also has a storage function.

The material is Divine Wood, which is also the top-grade refining material in the Longevity Realm.

If it weren't for it, she wouldn't have had the chance to live a second life.

Han Cuiyin transferred all the silver notes she had to the wooden fish space, leaving only some loose silver on her person.

She also moved the brocade pouch given by the Yan family, the contract signed by Luo Jingqian, and the jade pendant into the wooden fish space.

That person broke their promise again.

In their past life, he was supposed to bring her into the mansion as a concubine, but in the end, they became husband and wife.

In this life, she exchanged 100,000 taels of silver for a life-saving grace, and upon arriving in the capital, she would seek an opportunity to collect the debt.

The wooden fish needed repairing, and she remembered a good place.

Qingshuang Mountain, located fifteen miles from the capital, is a nice place.

When the time comes, set up an array, scatter the few lotus seeds left in the wooden fish space into the lake, and leave the rest to time.

Another day passed.

Han Song knocked on the door himself. "Miss Yang, it's time to come out for dinner today. Snacks spoil easily, and it's best to eat less in this weather."

"Okay, Uncle Han. I'm coming right now!"

This title surprised Han Song.

The young masters and ladies of the Han family all addressed him by his full name.

Han Song went to the dining room, where Wang Mama and the others were already seated at the table.

They never thought of calling out to Han Cuiyin, as if she didn't exist.

"Granny Wang, after the meal you still need to teach Miss Wang some manners. When she goes to the Han residence, she can't not know how to behave properly."

Han Song spoke, and Granny Wang gave a perfunctory reply.

"Oh my, who...who is this? She's so dark! Even charcoal isn't as dark as her!"

Da Ni exclaimed in surprise.

The people in the dining room recognized the clothes of the person in front of them, but no one shouted it out like Da Ni did.

Everyone had the same expression, looking completely stunned.

Han Cuiyin chuckled and waved her hands, "My face is dark, but my hands and other parts of my body are quite fair."

Han Song couldn't help but sigh, feeling worried for the girl.

The master wants to arrange a marriage with Miss Yang, but I'm afraid that won't work.

With looks like that, which noble family would want to marry her? Even illegitimate sons wouldn't marry her.

"I got sunburned, but I'll get my fair skin back after I cover myself up."

Han Cuiyin imitated the manner of a girl at a banquet in her previous life, her voice timid and hesitant, her eyes already swirling in their sockets but refusing to fall.

"Let's eat first!" Han Song couldn't bear to look at her. "The nanny will still teach Miss Yang some etiquette and manners later. As for how to arrange it, the master will decide when we return to the capital."

During the meal, everyone at the table had their own thoughts.

After the meal, Han Cuiyin followed Granny Wang to the hall to learn etiquette.

Da Ni stood behind Granny Wang, her eyes filled with mockery as Han Cuiyin made the mistake for the tenth time.

“Miss Yang, your movements are worse than even our maids’. If this were to happen at a banquet, the Han family would be humiliated as well.”

Da Ni's aunt served Madam Han and was used to acting arrogantly in the mansion.

"No matter how badly I do, I'll still be the master!"

Han Cuiyin gave a neutral reply, then simply sat down in the chair and stopped practicing.
