A lucky little peasant girl is reborn and brings prosperity to her entire family.

As Song Yanyan put on her shoes, she heard Qi Lian say in a low voice from outside the courtyard, "Pan'er, keep your voice down, Yanyan is asleep."

Song Pan'er still shouted, "Make her get up! I have something to ask her!"

Qi Lian tried to stop her, but Song Pan'er wouldn't listen and stubbornly said, "You're not going to call her, are you? I'll go call her myself!"

“Hey! Pan’er, you…”

Fearing that Song Pan'er might hurt the pregnant Qi Lian with her rough handling, Song Yanyan quickly called out, "Sister-in-law, I'm awake. Just let Pan'er in."

Before long, the sound of footsteps could be heard; it was Song Pan'er who rushed in like a whirlwind.

It was getting dark, and the house was rather dark as the lights weren't on.

Even so, Song Yanyan could still tell that Song Pan'er's face looked very unpleasant.

Qi Lian followed Song Pan'er in, somewhat nervously: "Yan Yan..."

She noticed that Song Pan'er wasn't in a good state and was worried that Song Pan'er might harm Song Yanyan.

"It's nothing, it's nothing," Song Yanyan quickly said. "Sister-in-law, you go ahead with your work. I'll talk to my cousin Pan'er for a bit."

Qi Lian hesitated for a moment: "Then I'll keep busy in the kitchen. Call me if you need anything."

Song Yanyan responded crisply and watched Qi Lian leave.

However, when Song Yanyan turned around, she saw that Song Pan'er's face was even more unpleasant, and her eyes in the shadows seemed to be burning with fire.

She murmured, "Why do your family love you so much? Why do you live such a good life? What makes you so special..."

Song Yanyan thought to herself, "If your family treats you badly, you should question them instead of coming here to ask her why."

Of course, seeing that Song Pan'er was not in a good state, Song Yanyan still had a humanitarian spirit and did not say it directly, so as not to further agitate Song Pan'er.

"What do you want from me?" Song Yanyan asked directly.

In the dimly lit room, Song Pan'er's breathing quickened slightly, but her eyes shone even brighter. She spoke rapidly, "You, do you know where that Lord Xie is!"

Song Yanyan really didn't expect that Song Pan'er came to her to ask about this.

She was utterly astonished: "Huh?"

"Stop pretending!" Song Pan'er continued speaking rapidly. "I know you've been seeing that Official Xie several times!"

Song Pan'er's expression was stubborn as she bit her lip and lowered her voice, "You little hussy, I've hated you since I was a child. Why is it that your family is so poor, yet your mother, your brother, and even your sister-in-law dote on you so much... My parents and my grandmother say they love me, but in reality, everything good has to go through Song Chengzong first before it reaches me. I finally managed to find a good family for me, but my mother insisted on asking them for twenty taels of silver! Do you think I don't know that? It's all because Song Chengzong suddenly went crazy and made a scene at home, saying he wanted to go to the county school!"

"Ridiculous! A good-for-nothing like Song Chengzong would be scolded even if he went to a regular school, but his family actually agreed to let him go to the county school! Isn't that absurd and outrageous?... Ha, a little brat like you who is truly loved by your family would never understand!"

As she spoke, two lines of clear tears rolled down Song Pan'er's cheeks.

"What am I... Pan'er, Pan'er, even my name, they named me Pan'er, isn't it just because they want to have a son!"

Song Pan'er sobbed.

Song Yanyan really didn't know how to comfort Song Pan'er.

Of course, Song Pan'er didn't want Song Yanyan to comfort her. With tears streaming down her face, she looked at Song Yanyan and said, "...Is Master Xie from the capital? Tell me more about Master Xie, I want to go to the capital to find him. I'll serve him tea and water, I'll be his servant! He's such a good person, he'll definitely help me!"

Song Pan'er choked up even more, "I don't want to marry that fat, big-eared merchant, I don't want to marry him. My mother and grandmother are in a hurry to sell me for money, what can I do?! I can only go to Lord Xie!"

Song Yanyan realized why Song Pan'er had suddenly said these things to her.

There was probably some genuine emotion involved, but more than that, it was likely that she wanted Xie Youchang to tell her his information.

Song Yanyan sighed and said seriously, "First of all, cousin Pan'er, I sympathize with your situation, but if you really don't want to get married, you can go to the clan elders to help you, or use other means. Going to the capital to find Official Xie is really outrageous!"

"We're more than a thousand miles from the capital. You say you'll go to the capital to find him, it sounds so easy, but how are you going to get there? Where will you get the travel expenses? What about your identity and travel permit to enter the city?"

Song Pan'er, however, was no longer listening and angrily said, "You don't need to worry about anything! Just tell me about Lord Xie's matter!"

Song Yanyan was speechless.

Just like back then, when Song Pan'er and her mother Zhao Laidi argued about the dowry, she could go straight to the county town.

Her cousin, Pan'er, is really impulsive and doesn't care about anything.

Seeing that Song Yanyan remained silent, Song Pan'er softened her tone slightly: "...I told you, just tell me about Lord Xie's matter! Don't worry, I won't implicate you...When I become Lord Xie's person, I will definitely repay you!"

Song Yanyan couldn't take it anymore and went over to shake Song Pan'er's arm: "You better get your head clean! Where do you get your confidence from! You won't implicate me, and you're even repaying me! Believe me or not, if you disappear, your mother and grandmother will be the first to come to my house and make a scene!"

Enraged, Song Pan'er pushed Song Yanyan's hand away: "I knew it! All that talk was just a way of saying you didn't want to tell me!"

Song Yanyan: "..."

Song Pan'er said fiercely, "Song Yanyan, you're so wicked! I've told you so much, and you still won't help me at all! I've seen through you today! You just want me to marry badly so you can be smug, right? Do you think I only have your way? I can go directly to the capital. Once I'm in the capital, I refuse to believe that I can't find Official Xie, who is a well-known official!"

"Let me tell you! When I become Lord Xie's man and return home in glory, I'll make you regret it!"

After saying that, Song Pan'er spat on the ground and turned to leave.

But just before she was about to leave, she suddenly remembered something, turned around, and threatened Song Yanyan fiercely, "If you tell my mother and the others what I've told you, I'll hang myself on your doorstep! I'll haunt you even as a ghost!"

After making her threat, Song Pan'er turned and left.

Song Yanyan was speechless and wanted to ask the heavens.

She really admired her cousin, Pan'er!

Hearing the commotion, Qi Lian rushed over and lit the candles in the dimly lit room: "What's wrong, Yan Yan? Are you alright?"

Song Yanyan shook her head, sighed, and told Qi Lian what had just happened.

Qi Lian was somewhat flustered: "Pan'er, has she gone mad?"

“Who says otherwise!” Song Yanyan was speechless.

If it weren't for the fear that Song Pan'er would run away and cause trouble for Zhao Laidi and Old Madam Song, Song Yanyan wouldn't bother with Song Pan'er's affairs at all!
