After Black Moonlight revealed her true feelings, everyone panicked.

The other party also sent several photos of Sister Ye practicing making her secret-recipe fish balls.

The secret-recipe fish balls are a local delicacy from my hometown. Since Sister Ye is from the same village, she naturally knows how to make them.

However, she was not a good cook. Although she was allowed to be the cook back then because she was from the same hometown, she was actually not qualified.

Now, if you want to make a special fish ball recipe, you have to practice in advance.

Back then, the Lu family's business wasn't this big, and they didn't have many servants. Aunt Ye was in charge of the kitchen.

Gradually, the original owner of the body discovered that she often couldn't get a hot meal.

The Lu family's children all have extracurricular classes, and the times are not consistent, making it difficult for them to get together for dinner.

Aunt Ye's cooking time always followed her three older brothers.

Sometimes, after school, the original owner would attend extracurricular classes and only be able to eat leftovers when she got back. Sometimes, the extracurricular classes were at seven or eight o'clock in the evening, with a gap of one or two hours in between. Aunt Ye never prepared any food for her, so she had to go to class hungry.

In contrast, whenever his three older brothers came home, there was always a hot meal waiting for them.

After discovering this situation, Lu Ting had Ye Sao pack her bags and leave the Lu family that very night.

Upon learning this, Lu Lingbai contradicted his father for the first time in his life...

In the end, Aunt Ye stayed, but only as a cleaner.

When Lu Ting called Ye Sao to his study for a talk, Ye Sao was still feeling very aggrieved.

She felt that it was enough that she had taken good care of the three young masters. As for the occasional oversights on the young lady's side, what was the big deal?

Which family doesn't prioritize their son? No matter how much a daughter is favored, she can't surpass her son, can she?

Lu Ting said coldly, "You can take care of your whole family, but it's not as important as taking care of A-Jian. Remember, if it weren't for A-Jian pleading for you, I would never have let you stay today."

In our Lu family, A-Jian's needs come first. What gives you the right to wrong her?

Mrs. Ye was shocked and immediately burst into tears, saying, "Sir, I'm sorry. My parents favored boys over girls, and I have never been valued or treated well by my family, which is why I made a mistake."

Lu Ting thought they were tears of regret, but only Lu Sijian knew that they were the poison of jealousy.

Lu Sijian replied to the text message: "Okay, I also need to see Aunt Ye tomorrow."

She said she would settle accounts with Aunt Ye, so how could she go back on her word?

-

The next morning, Lu Lingbo saw that it was almost time and prepared to leave to pick up his sister.

He changed his wheelchair today; it was the same one Lu Sijian used to use.

When Lu Sijian first returned home, she couldn't walk independently yet. Aunt Ye would occasionally help push her around the yard to enjoy the flowers and scenery.

Hopefully, when the younger sister sees the wheelchair, she will soften her heart and not be too harsh on Sister Ye.

Aunt Ye pushed his wheelchair to see him off, hesitant to speak.

"Alright, don't worry anymore. The fact that A-Jian is willing to come back means she won't pursue the matter further."

Lu Lingbo paused, then looked up and saw a car drive into the courtyard.

Mrs. Ye was overjoyed. Before the car had even come to a complete stop, she ran forward and opened the car door.

"Young Master Lou, what brings you here?"

Lu Lingbai was left standing there, stunned for a moment, but didn't say anything.

Lou Xiao looked at the dark circles under Ye Sao's eyes and thought about what she had said last night, and felt a little soft-hearted.

"Just apologize properly, just like we said last night. It's okay, don't be afraid."

If she had no other choice, Mrs. Ye probably wouldn't have revealed her predicament and fear of losing the job she relied on for a living.

Lu Lingbai asked curiously, "What did Sister Ye say last night?"

"It's nothing." It concerns other people's privacy, so he couldn't say.

Lu Lingbai was somewhat surprised. He couldn't even tell her? He subconsciously glanced at Aunt Ye.

Aunt Ye wasn't looking at him; instead, she held an umbrella to shield Lou Xiao from the sun.

Lu Lingbai snapped out of his thoughts, and Lou Xiao quickly stepped forward to help him into the car. The driver folded up the wheelchair, and the car drove off.

-

In the lobby of the Junting Hotel, Lu Sijian stood up and waved, "This way."

Lou Xiao walked over quickly, "Didn't I say I'd come upstairs to pick you up?"

Lu Sijian smiled and said, "I had nothing to do anyway, so I came down first."

Lu Lingbo turned his wheelchair around. "Alright, let's talk about it at home."

He glanced at the suitcase next to him and gestured for the driver to put it in the car.

-

Before Lu Sijian even entered the main building, she saw more than a dozen servants standing under the eaves.

Aunt Ye stepped forward and handed her a bouquet of flowers.

Then he stepped back and bowed deeply, "Miss, I'm sorry. I acted improperly the day before yesterday. I was wrong. Please give me a chance to correct my mistake."

Aunt Wang snorted coldly, "You only realize you were wrong now? What have you been doing all this time?"

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault." Aunt Ye didn't argue, but bent over with her head bowed low.

Behind her, all the servants bowed, saying, "Young Miss, we were wrong!"

Lu Sijian lowered her head and fiddled with the flowers in her arms, her smile gentle and serene.

Who was the sucker who paid for these flowers?

Lu Lingbo turned his wheelchair forward and said, "Jian, everyone is so happy that you're home. This bouquet of flowers is a gift from them who pooled their money to buy it for you."

Lu Sijian gave him a pitying look. [I understand, you're definitely going to be the sucker.]

Lu Lingbai: "..."

This brand of flowers isn't cheap, so it's not appropriate to have the servants chip in to pay for it.

So after learning of Sister Ye's plan, he took the initiative to transfer the money to her.

Lu Lingbai felt his sister was being too extreme. What did it matter who paid for it? What mattered was the sentiment.

He thought for a moment and then said, "Everyone was so worried that night. They searched for you for most of the night and didn't get to sleep until three or four in the morning."

[Yes, because I was forced to work overtime until 3 or 4 in the morning, and I was almost forced to pay for flowers for them, of course they're full of resentment towards me.]

As expected, Lu Sijian dragged everyone down with her, which was also Ye Sao's usual tactic.

Lou Xiao frowned slightly. How could she think that way?

"Jane, everyone is just concerned about you..."

"Got it, you're getting a piece of the sucker's pie too." Lu Sijian immediately looked over.

Lou Xiao: "..."

Aunt Ye was a little puzzled as to why Lou Xiao and Lu Lingbai were no longer speaking up for her.

She couldn't see everyone's expressions, so she could only try her best to appear sincere and pitiful.

"Young Miss, it's all my fault, no one else has to do with it..."

Lu Sijian looked at Aunt Ye's hunched back and smiled slightly: "Really? Then tell me, what exactly did you do wrong?"

Sister Ye lowered her head, her eyes full of sarcasm.

Lu Sijian had been ill for a while, and her brain was probably damaged too, so she dared to torment herself so blatantly.

Do they really think she's still that high and mighty young lady?

No matter how much you are pampered when you are a child, you still won't get any inheritance rights when you grow up.

Things are different now; she can no longer call the shots in the Lu family.

Aunt Ye said sincerely, "I am inflexible and tend to neglect one thing for another when doing things, which has caused me to disrespect Miss."

"You've summarized it well, but you haven't answered where you went wrong specifically." Lu Sijian wasn't about to let the other person off the hook.

"I failed to arrange Miss's car properly, and I shouldn't have ordered Lou Shao around."

Lu Lingbai was somewhat anxious.

Because Ye Sao's back had been bent for so long, not only did her face turn red, but her voice also began to tremble slightly.

If my sister continues to make things difficult for me, that would be going too far.

Lou Xiao frowned: "Ah Jian, this is not Ye Sao's fault. I was too anxious to avoid suspicion when saving people."

Although he had a clear conscience, he was willing to apologize since Lu Sijian cared.
