After the mind-reading and gossip-eating incident, officials in the imperial city were demoted one a

"I've got it." Xiao Yaoyao nodded emphatically.

That's why I studied medicine; later, this mysterious man appeared a few more times.

However, five years have passed, and the original owner has not seen the mysterious uncle again, still worrying about him.

Seeing that her daughter did not answer her, Liu Yunshu's breathing gradually became steady as she smelled the fragrance, her face became serene, and she soon drifted off to sleep.

[Oh no! Was that guy I met when I was a child a pedophile?]

In her memory, that person gave the original owner many small gifts, but did not tell her his identity. Xiao Yaoyao always called him the mysterious uncle.

[System, system.]

[Yes, host.]

[Can you check the people in the original owner Ye Yaoyao's memories?]

No, the system cannot check any characters in the host image.

[Okay, now you can leave!]

This mysterious uncle will definitely reappear in the future. Shaking his head, he decided not to dwell on the matter anymore.

Liu Yunshu had already fallen asleep, and Ye Yaoyao carefully checked her pulse again, murmuring to herself.

"Strange, the pulse is perfectly healthy."

What exactly are those medicinal herbs in the sachet? They're so effective, I'll have to ask the legendary healer to confirm.

Ye Yaoyao pondered the problem, her breathing gradually becoming even, and the expression on her face relaxed.

The mother and daughter slept soundly all night, and were not woken up by Zhang Mama until Chenshi (7-9 AM).

"Madam, someone from the old lady's side has reported that she's making a scene, refusing to eat or take her medicine."

"They're making a fuss even before they've fully recovered, because they know I've taken over the household and gotten rid of those few cancerous elements!"

A mocking smile appeared on Liu Yunshu's face, her eyes filled with disdain.

"Mom, I'm so hungry!" Ye Yaoyao exaggeratedly clutched her stomach.

This is going to cause trouble. The old woman might not actually be hungry, so they won't go with her. They need to eat a full breakfast so they can go and watch the show.

“Yaoyao is hungry, so let’s go there after we finish our meal.”

The Ye brothers took three days off, and after their meal, the mother and her five children went to the longevity home of Old Madam Ye.

Ye Yaoyao looked at the three words 'Longevity Academy', her lips twitched, and she couldn't help but roll her eyes, silently complaining in her heart.

Ye Mian became an official, and she enjoyed the good fortune along with him. How afraid she must be of not living to a ripe old age to enjoy such blessings, that's why she named the courtyard this way? I heard she even invited a feng shui master to arrange the feng shui.

Ye Mian, being a scholar, naturally didn't want the name of the academy to be so vulgar, but Madam Ye, a village woman from the countryside, preferred such a pleasant-sounding name and insisted on giving it to him.

Ye Yaoyao looked at the arrangement of the courtyard and gave her comments.

Although the name of the courtyard is a bit common, it is indeed the best courtyard in the Ye family's residence.

A young maid was waiting at the door. When she saw someone arrive, she quickly ran over and curtsied.

"Madam has arrived. The old lady requests that you proceed to the main hall."

As soon as Ye Yaoyao stepped into the hall, she was almost dazzled by the dazzling golden light and precious stones inside.

The shelves were filled with a dazzling array of valuable items; the old woman must have felt incredibly happy every day seeing these treasures.

Many of these items were part of my mother's dowry; I'm helping her get them back.

Triplets: My sister is right.

"Where's mother?"

"Madam, the old lady is unwell and will be out in a little while."

Apart from two servants, there was no one else in sight. Was this old woman deliberately trying to intimidate them?

"Fourth Miss, you can't touch it."

When the old woman saw Ye Yaoyao reach out and pick up a piece of jade cabbage, she ran over quickly with a scream.

"Granny Zhao, why are you shouting so loudly? You startled me. Luckily, my hand is steady, otherwise the fine jade cabbage would have fallen to the ground."

Ye Yaoyao looked at Zhao Mama with dissatisfaction and hugged the jade cabbage tightly in her arms.

"This old servant..." Seeing the jade cabbage being held by Ye Yaoyao, Zhao Mama felt a pang of regret and forced a dry laugh:

"It was the old lady who ordered that it not be touched. It is only allowed to be touched when the servants are cleaning."

Of course I know I'm not allowed to touch it, and it's the one thing they least want me to touch, but I'm going to touch it anyway, so what can you do about it?

Ye Yaoyao learned from the system what these servants were doing here. They were holding the jade cabbage tightly in one hand, their eyes gleaming with cunning, and they were trying to touch other objects.

"Fourth Miss." Granny Zhao rushed forward to stop her.

"Please sit and wait a while. The old lady will be out soon. Madam, young master, please sit as well."

"What is this chair, Granny Zhao?" Ye Jingyang asked, looking at the chair covered with golden characters.

"The old lady said that there was almost a funeral in the mansion, and this is for good luck."

The group understood; the old woman thought they were bad luck.

Ye Yaoyao, holding the jade cabbage, sat down in the main seat.

"Fourth Miss, that's the main seat, where the Old Madam sits."

“Those chairs are covered in gold paint, it’s not dry yet, is it? If you sit down, you’ll get covered in it.”

I'll sit here first, and then I'll offer my seat to Grandma when she arrives. Mom, please come and sit next to me.

[Haha! My daughter and I are sitting side by side; we'll drive the old woman crazy!]

Liu Yunshu suppressed a laugh and sat down next to Ye Yaoyao.

"Young Master, Second Young Master, Third Miss, please have a seat! This old servant will serve you tea." Since Ye Yaoyao had found an opening, Granny Zhao could only target the triplets.

"No need, we don't want to sit, we'll just stand for a while."

The younger sister didn't say what the old woman was going to do; they just waited quietly. Ye Xiyao stood next to Liu Yunshu, while the two young masters leaned lazily against the pillars.

Not long after, a rapid ringing of a bell suddenly rang out.

[Wuhu! Here we come!]

What's here? Mother and son both looked towards the door.

"Ring ring ring..." A crisp ringing sound entered everyone's ears.

The first thing that came into view was a Taoist priest dressed in a yellow robe. He held a bell in his left hand and a peach wood sword in his right. As soon as he appeared, he jumped up and down at the door while chanting incantations.

Ye Yaoyao rested her chin on her right hand with great interest, appreciating the unique "shamanistic" performance at the doorway.

At the same time, Madam Ye walked slowly with the help of others, followed by a group of supporters.

Finally, the Taoist priest jumped into the hall, but when he saw several mothers and children standing or sitting, not sitting on the chairs he had carefully drawn talismans on, the movement of the bell in his hand came to an abrupt stop.

The mother and her five children stared intently at him, silently pondering:

Why didn't you jump?

"Pfft!" Ye Yaoyao couldn't help but laugh when she saw Old Madam Ye.

[She has such a bad cold, yet she dresses like a peacock and has so many gold hairpins in her hair. Is she afraid that people won't know she's a nouveau riche and won't feel that her head is heavy?]

Even the shamans are dressed better than her; it's truly an eyesore.

Madam Ye was dressed in a magnificent brocade robe, her hair adorned with pearls and gold hairpins, and her gold bracelets gleamed in the sunlight.

The triplets also looked on with disbelief: "We used to think our grandmother was just surrounded by money, but now it's really an eyesore."

The three of them couldn't bear to look and turned their heads away.

"You bastard! That's the main seat, my seat! Get down here!" The old woman roared angrily, her eyes wide.

How did the servants do their job? They actually let Ye Yaoyao sit in her seat. How is the master supposed to exorcise evil spirits then?

Madam Ye was quite frightened yesterday and caught a cold, so she stayed in bed all day. She was only able to get out of bed and walk around today.

She held a cloth she had just taken off, her nose was bright red, and her voice was even hoarseer than Ye Mian's, utterly lacking in intimidation.

"Now that Grandmother is here, this seat should naturally be given to you."

With a bright smile on her face, Ye Yaoyao stood up, holding the jade cabbage, and slowly walked towards the old woman.

"You...don't come over!"

The old woman was terrified, her face turned pale, and she involuntarily backed away, as if Ye Yaoyao were some kind of monstrous beast.

"Grandmother, I am your granddaughter! I am still alive. If you don't believe me, look at the shadow on the ground."

Ye Yaoyao pointed to her own shadow and slowly approached her, her tone tinged with grievance.

She sat up from the coffin, the horrifying scene still vivid in her mind. Old Madam Ye looked at her in fear and kept backing away.

As she stepped back, the person supporting her also stepped back, and the group of people squeezed together. In the end, the people at the back touched the threshold and almost tripped.

"Stop returning them!"

The last girl clung tightly to the door frame and screamed. She was squeezed and unable to move, and could only hold on to the door frame with both hands.

"Yaoyao, we know you are still alive, you don't need to come any closer."

Your grandmother is still suffering from a cold, and you just came out of the coffin; she's worried she might pass on her illness to you.

The speaker was a woman named Xue Ruoxue, and the girl who shouted "Don't back down" was her daughter, Ye Yuanru.
