After the arranged marriage, she farms and survives under the tutelage of the villainous boss.

Then Zhao Guifen sighed as if she had aged ten years: "These children have grown up and have their own ideas. As their mother, I can't do anything right. Now that Yunniang is safe, I'll be leaving."

Then, grabbing Jiang Laosan and dragging Jiang Zhiwan along, they were about to leave, crying and sobbing.

Jiang Zhiyun stood in front of them and said, "Wait."

“Apologize to my mother-in-law.” Jiang Zhiyun looked at her. “You came to our doorstep and caused trouble. My mother-in-law was so frightened that she fainted without knowing anything.”

"How can we just pretend nothing happened with a few high-sounding words?"

At this moment, Zhang slowly woke up, tugged at her hand, and said somewhat uneasyly, "Yunniang, I'm fine, it's just that you... if you're okay, then I'm okay."

“You should apologize even if there’s nothing wrong. The Xie family is not to be trifled with,” Jiang Zhiyun said. “You always come here shamelessly, like a leech that you can’t get rid of. Now you’re even trying to make exorbitant demands. We can’t accept this.”

Zhao Guifen, being both flexible and assertive, walked over to Zhang and said with a very embarrassed expression, "I'm sorry, mother-in-law."

"Yes, it's nothing." Zhang Shi put on a tough front, her face pale as she straightened her clothes. "I have always treated Yunniang as my own daughter. You are not worthy to be her mother. Don't come here again."

Before leaving, Jiang Zhiwan said to Yunniang, "We will be alright sooner or later, but you and Xie Shuheng will separate sooner or later."

"Don't be fooled by the calm now; the Xie family will drive you to your death later."

After saying that, he left.

Jiang Zhiyun looked at her with only sympathy.

Why haven't they figured out that the reason Jiang Zhiyun made so much money and ran the teahouse so well in her previous life was because of her skills and intelligence, not because the teahouse itself was good?

Ye Qi crossed his arms and watched the family's retreating figures. He said, "That Jiang Zhiwan is no match for you; she's too stupid."

Yunniang said, "There is no opponent. Her stupidity might actually help us later."

Putting everything else aside, that teahouse was run by Jiang Zhiyun in her previous life, and it's in a good location.

It's hard to say whether it will end up back in Jiang Zhiyun's hands.

"Also, I didn't suffer any loss with this snake today. How could I have suffered a loss for no reason?"

Ye Qi asked curiously, "Why did you bring this broken snake back?" Could it be just to scare Jiang Zhiwan?

If that's the case, then my sister-in-law is too bored; she can't even stand watching a child like him.

At this moment, Jiang Zhiyun, holding Yang Ge'er, walked straight in: "Because it can be used in medicine. And today this snake led me to find good medicinal materials."

"As for how much it will cost, we'll find out when we see Dr. Su tomorrow."

Ye Qi: "..." Why keep such a small matter a secret?

Anyway, he didn't believe Jiang Zhiyun had much ability, and he didn't have high expectations for tomorrow.

When they came in, Jiang Zhiyun was still wiping Yang Ge'er's eyes.

Seeing that Zhang had been watching over her the whole time, Yunniang smiled and asked, "Mother, I'm fine. But how did you feel about setting up your stall today?"

"Oh dear." Zhang Shi immediately became interested when this was mentioned.

"Yunniang, I'm not just bragging. At first, I thought it might not be enough to make the noodles by myself. But even though I was slow at making them, everyone waited for them. They said that although my noodles weren't as delicious as yours, they were still pretty good."

"At first I didn't dare to shout, but then your Aunt Wang next to me taught me tirelessly, and now I know how, don't I?"

"These people are just gossipy. I didn't like them before, but now I think they're all pretty good."

“Yunniang, I think I will try my best to follow in your footsteps. Our family can’t rely on you alone; I have to support myself too.”

"Ah."

Jiang Zhiyun nodded, watching her mother-in-law walk out step by step, her eyes becoming more and more determined, and she felt happy in her heart.

"Tomorrow we'll go sell medicine and find a school for Yang-ge'er while we're at it."

Yunniang looked at Yangge'er sleeping in her arms and felt a pang of heartache.

Zhang and Ye Qi just happened to return from the market today. If they hadn't come back, and Yang-ge was all alone, who knows when it would end.

The Jiang family is so heartless and ruthless that they might kidnap a child and use it to extort money at any time.

So Yang Ge'er can not only make new friends and learn things at school, but more importantly, the enlightenment school can also protect the child.

At least the Jiang family wouldn't be able to cause trouble at the school.

Because she had already spoken to Zhang about this before, Zhang didn't see any problem with it and nodded, saying, "That would be excellent, of course."

“Yunniang, I’m just worried that since our family has been exiled, no one will want our children to go to school.”

"It's alright. Tomorrow we'll prepare the apprenticeship gift, which is the tuition fee. It'll be about six kinds of gifts: dried meat, celery, dried longan, lotus seeds, red dates, and red beans."

Yunniang had done many such things in her past life, so naturally she handled them well. As for the Xu family's children, it wouldn't be up to her, the mistress of the house, to take care of them later.

Because she valued education, Jiang Zhiyun personally prepared all the tuition gifts for everyone in the family back then. Now she's quite adept at it.

Zhang sighed with some emotion: "Since the day I was exiled, I never thought that our family's children would have the opportunity to study, nor did I ever think that our family would be rich. It is truly a blessing."

“Yunniang, no matter what, our family would definitely not be able to survive without you. I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life.” Madam Zhang held her hand. “I was really frightened today. I was thinking that it would be better if I died. You can’t die. You have to be with Shuheng forever.”

Zhang also spoke her mind: "Shuheng isn't a good talker. But he is, after all, someone I raised. I know he treats you differently. But you don't need to feel burdened; it's okay if you don't like him. Whatever happens between you two is fine."

"No matter what happens in the future, you will always be my daughter, okay?"

Ms. Zhang is truly heartbroken today.

No matter how much that family made a scene before, today they're all dressed in white mourning clothes, eagerly paying their respects to their daughter. Her fate is unknown, and this is how it is.

Yunniang, this child, probably never had any expectations.

Yunniang knew what she was talking about, and then smiled: "Mother, I stopped caring about these things a long time ago. I've been in the Jiang family for so many years, I'm used to it."

"I must have suffered enough to meet such wonderful people as you."

Although Xie Shuheng may be ruthless in the future, at least for now, Jiang Zhiyun can sense that he is a very good person, even a truly upright gentleman.

Don't look to the future, just look to the present. Xie Shuheng is good, Zhang Shi is good. Yang Ge'er is just an innocent child who doesn't understand anything.

Sometimes, she really wonders if this is the only family she feels here.

After saying that, he went back to his room to sleep.

Jiang Zhiyun lay in the room, feeling a sense of emptiness for the first time.

I do miss Xie Shuheng a little.

I wonder what this person is doing now? Is the food alright over there?
