After transmigrating, I became a stepmother.

"There's nothing we can do about it. Our Gu family isn't very large, so we can only let her suffer!" The old lady gave a wry smile.

"My cousin's wife isn't very old, and my aunt feels comfortable letting her run around outside. Isn't she afraid that something might happen to her?"

"Don't worry, the security here is pretty good. There aren't many dirty things happening around here. Besides, she always brings enough people with her when she goes out. She'll be fine!"

The old lady thought she was genuinely worried about Lin Hao's safety outside, so she smiled and reassured her, telling her to stay here without worry.

"Really? That's wonderful!" Qian Youran said awkwardly when she saw that the old lady wouldn't listen.

"Why haven't I seen Yu-ge'er come over lately?" Her eyes lit up, and she came up with a new idea.

"He's been busy studying with his father and son lately, so he hasn't had time to stay here! He has come a few times, but unfortunately, you didn't run into him!" Thinking of her grandson's progress during this time, the old lady couldn't help but smile.

"That's really unfortunate!" Old woman, is she implying that I should come and pay my respects to the young master?

"I wonder if his body can handle studying so diligently at such a young age?"

"It's alright. That Master He is your cousin's friend. He's a very kind person, not the kind of harsh teacher. He'll handle things properly. Besides, your cousin's wife had someone prepare a medicinal diet recipe for him a long time ago to help him recover. I've noticed that Yu'er's complexion has been getting better and better lately, and he's become much stronger!"

When this was mentioned, the old lady couldn't help but praise Lin Hao.

Qian Youran felt even worse upon hearing this, but forced a smile and said, "My sister-in-law is so thoughtful. Even with all the busyness outside, she hasn't forgotten to care about Yu-ge'er!"

“It’s not just Yu-ge’er, your cousin and I also got a share. In fact, Yu-ge’er and I are actually thanks to your cousin! Originally, she was the one who got this medicinal diet recipe for your cousin.”

The old lady was even happier when she remembered the reason. It seemed that she would soon be able to hold another grandson or granddaughter!

Seeing the old lady's happy expression, Qian Youran knew exactly what she was thinking, but she didn't want to agree with her and say that since the couple was getting along well, what business was it of hers?

However, Master He...

"You Ran had no idea that Yu Ge'er's husband was actually her cousin's friend!" She said with a hint of curiosity, as if she had only mentioned it unintentionally.

"Yes, it was your cousin who personally invited Yu-ge'er back. He is a very talented and knowledgeable person!" The old lady's eyes lit up as she said this, but she remained calm.

"This Master He is about the same age as your cousin and has also achieved the title of Juren (a successful candidate in the provincial examinations). However, like your cousin, he was unlucky and missed the exams due to illness and the passing of an elder. Otherwise, he would surely have been on the list!"

After saying that, the old lady glanced at her niece while pretending to drink tea, and sure enough, she saw that the niece was somewhat interested, so she continued speaking.

"I think this Master He is handsome and knowledgeable. He will surely make a name for himself in the future. I just wonder which girl will be able to recognize his talent!"

Hearing this, Qian Youran realized that her aunt was telling her that Master He was not yet married. Thinking about what her aunt said, given the mourning period, it made perfect sense!

"I've heard that Master He lives here. I wonder if his family is worried?"

Upon hearing this, the old lady knew that her niece understood what she meant, and replied with a smile, "His family consists of only his mother and younger siblings, who are all quite old. However, they have exhausted their savings on his father's medical treatment, and are now rather poor!"
