Famine and exile: I brought the Spirit Spring to save the entire Marquis's mansion.

The meat of that Tai Sui is delicious. It doesn't resemble anything that flies in the sky or runs in the mountains. It's a bit like fish, but it has no fishy smell at all and is even sweet.

She couldn't bear to eat it, so she only took a small bite.

My bones ached, I was exhausted, and my mind was so foggy that I wished I could just collapse and sleep forever.

But once she swallowed that piece of meat, it felt like all the gods had returned to their places, and she felt completely refreshed.

Such a magical thing, what else could it be but a legendary celestial treasure? It must be something from the mortal realm!

To be able to obtain this item must be because Heaven saw how wronged the Huo family had been and came to their rescue!

"Fourth brother's wife, it's all my fault for being useless!"

The old lady pounded her chest, wishing the refugees would eat her instead of that piece of flesh.

"Lost... lost..."

Huo Chang'an was stunned when he heard this.

His eyes visibly dimmed.

Without the flesh of the Tai Sui, his health is hopeless.

"Mom, what kind of medicine is it? Can't we buy it later?"

Li Yuzhi and several others asked questions.

The old lady shook her head and wept, looking utterly heartbroken.

If I had known, I would have let Yuzhi carry the jar. Why did she have to show off like that?

Sang Ning pretended to rummage through the pottery jars, but apart from Yun Shuixian, who was secretly watching her, no one noticed.

Yunshuixian, of course, couldn't see anything either.

"Madam, please don't cry. The medicine is still here. How could I possibly leave something so important in one place?"

Sang Ning opened one of the jars and showed it to her, her calm voice having the power to soothe everything.

I understand the principle of not putting all your eggs in one basket.

The old lady looked at the small piece of meat in the jar and was overwhelmed with emotion. After a period of extreme joy and sorrow, she fainted on the spot.

Her body was already barely holding on; if Sang Ning hadn't given her the spiritual spring water these past few days, she probably would have collapsed long ago.

After a flurry of activity, the old lady soon woke up.

She looked at Sang Ning with gratitude, her eyes filled with both satisfaction and admiration.

There is greater trust.

When danger struck, she did not abandon any member of the Huo family.

If there were ulterior motives, it wouldn't have been done so thoroughly.

Rather than saying that Heaven sent the Tai Sui meat to save the Huo family, it would be more accurate to say that it sent Sang Ning'er.

“Mrs. Sang, are you really severing ties with Sang Xiuqi? He is, after all, your biological father.”

Everyone looked at Sang Ning.

Sang Ning could tell that everyone was grateful to her, but they were also holding back because of her status.

She thought for a moment, then whispered something in the old lady's ear.

The old lady was extremely shocked after hearing this.

Not their biological child?

No wonder that old scoundrel abandoned his daughter so cruelly!

The old lady quickly calmed down.

Holding Sang Ning's hand, he said, "From now on, we are your family."

"Yuzhi, bring all the things over here."

“In our family, we value ability over seniority. Today, I’m handing over the reins of the household to my fourth son’s wife. You have no objections, do you?”

After her initial surprise, Li Yuzhi quickly said, "Mother, I have no objection. I agree to my fourth sister-in-law taking charge of the household."

Xie Yurou said, "I agree."

Huo Jingya: "I agree too."

Sanning: "..."

Is there anything left to control in this house?

Only a fool would disagree!

Waaah... It feels like they're trying to shift the blame.

When the old lady said she was in charge of the household, she was simply handing over the remaining thirty taels of silver and the right to distribute the food to her.

"Madam, perhaps you should..."

"Why are you still calling me 'Old Madam'? You should call me 'Mother'." The old lady feigned displeasure and gave a light rebuke.

Huo Jingya chuckled, "Fourth Sister-in-law, are you embarrassed?"

"Sister-in-law, call out to us quickly, from now on we are truly a family."

Li Yuzhi and Xie Yurou also urged them on with smiles.

The old lady is the head of the family. Gaining her approval means that Sang Ning'er can be completely trusted!

Their tone suddenly became intimate.

Upon hearing this, Huo Chang'an's heart suddenly jumped, and his phoenix eyes lowered to hide his nervousness.

When he saw the conflicted look on Sang Ning's face, it was as if a bowl of ice water had been poured over his face.

Instantly awake.

I want to say: Mom, please don't make things difficult for me.

It's still uncertain whether his health will recover. If he doesn't, wouldn't that be repaying kindness with enmity?

Even if he were healthy, he wouldn't be worthy of a woman like that.

Not to mention his current crippled body...

He wanted to say: Sang Ning'er, there's no need to force yourself. Our marriage was just a scheme by someone else, don't take it seriously.

I only wish that you can help the Huo family out of their predicament. From now on, the Huo family will be your support, and you can go wherever you want.

He wanted to say...

But he opened his mouth several times, yet couldn't utter a single word.

Then they heard Sang Ning shout, "Mom, then I'll take charge of this household."

Everyone was happy, but Huo Chang'an frowned deeply.

She frowned slightly, as if something was bothering her; although she was smiling, there wasn't much joy in her eyes.

That's true. The Huo family is a burden now; who would want to be in charge of it?

"Good child, I know we're not the same as before. Being a family member is a tough job. You've worked hard." The old lady patted Sang Ning's hand, slightly apologetic.

However, this won't last forever.

"It's alright, I'll pack up and we'll spend the night in these mountains."

In the past, Sang Ning would lead a group of people to search for delicious food and record programs, just like before.

As soon as Sang Ning left, Yun Shuixian came over.

"aunt……"

The old lady's expression softened.

She was becoming increasingly disappointed in her niece.

They were all educated in official schools, and every child in the family was upright and responsible. But she was the only one who would run around on her own when something happened, without caring about anyone else.

Even if she just hugged Jinxin!

Jin Xin...

A child's mind is the purest and most transparent; she knew that her grandmother had abandoned her.

The old lady wiped her eyes.

It's laughable that she used to boast that the men and women of the Huo family were just as important because she had lived in the border town and knew that women were no less capable than men.

They can wash their hands and cook, and they can also take up arms and kill the enemy.

She used to disapprove of families who mistreated girls.

In the end, she still chose Jintang and left Jinxin in hell.
